  1. The software may be used only within the organisation (or by the person) to whom the software is supplied, and may not be copied for use by other organisations or persons.
  2. Acknowledgement of GEMPACK must be made when results that have been obtained with GEMPACK are reported. Please cite the paper: W.J. Harrison and K.R. Pearson, Computing Solutions for Large General Equilibrium Models Using GEMPACK, Computational Economics Vol. 9 (1996), pp. 83-127.
  3. Licensees are free to make changes to the code but at no time shall such modified code become the property of the Licensee.
  4. The software, data and documentation are provided at the Licensee's request on as "as is" basis. The Impact Project and KPSOFT make no warranties, express or implied, that the programs, data and documentation are free of error, or are consistent with any particular standard of merchantability, or that they will meet the Licensee's requirements for any particular application. Where only executable images of the GEMPACK programs are supplied, this "as is" provision may include fixed limits on the dimensions of models that can be handled by the software.
  5. Licensees are responsible for the installation of the software, its use and for results obtained from it. The Impact Project and KPSOFT disclaim all liability for direct, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from the Licensee's use of the programs, data or documentation.
