entity referred to in Attachment 1 below ("Elasticsearch") and the person or entity ("You") that has downloaded

and does hereby grant to You for a period of thirty (30) days from the Effective Date (the "Trial Term"), solely for

understand and agree that upon the expiration of the Trial Term, Your license to use the Shield Software will terminate,
unless you purchase a Qualifying Subscription (as defined below) for Elasticsearch support services.

and all applicable fees for a Gold or Platinum production subscription for support services for Elasticsearch open
source software (in each case, a "Qualifying Subscription"), Elasticsearch agrees to grant, and does hereby grant to You

applicable quantitative limitations set forth in the applicable Order Form; (ii) use, and distribute internally a

Software"), which Open Source Software may have applicable license terms as identified on a website designated by
Elasticsearch or otherwise provided with the Shield Software or Documentation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, use of the Open Source Software shall be subject to the license terms and conditions applicable to such Open

audit Your use of the Shield Software for compliance with any quantitative limitations on Your use of the Shield
Software that are set forth in the applicable Order Form. You agree to provide Elasticsearch with the necessary access
to the Shield Software to conduct such an audit either (i) remotely, or (ii) if remote performance is not possible, at
Your facilities, during normal business hours and no more than one (1) time in any twelve (12) month period. In the
event any such audit reveals that You have used the Shield Software in excess of the applicable quantitative
limitations, You agree to promptly pay to Elasticsearch an amount equal to the difference between the fees actually paid
and the fees that You should have paid to remain in compliance with such quantitative limitations. This Section 1.3
shall survive for a period of two (2) years from the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
