Except to the extent permitted by applicable law, Licensee shall not analyze for purposes competitive to DS, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise translate all or part of the Licensed Program(s). In the event Licensee wishes to ensure the interoperability, within the limits of its authorized use as defined in this Agreement, of the Licensed Program(s) with other computer software or with equipment under conditions provided for by law (including without limitation laws implementing the directive 2009/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the legal protection of computer programs), Licensee must ask DS for a license to use standard interfaces, exclusively for internal use to achieve interoperability. DS will grant Licensee a license to use the standard interfaces at the then current prices and contractual conditions of DS or, if standard interfaces are not available, DS, for a fee, may provide Licensee with the necessary information to permit interoperability. Licensee is not authorized to give access to these interfaces to any person other than Users.
