TIMESCALE LICENSE AGREEMENT
Posted Date: December 19, 2018
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THIS TIMESCALE LICENSE AGREEMENT ("TSL Agreement"), WHICH
CONSTITUTES A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT AND GOVERNS USE OF THE TIMESCALE
TIME-SERIES DATABASE SOFTWARE AND RELATED SOFTWARE THAT IS PROVIDED SUBJECT TO
THIS TSL AGREEMENT. BY INSTALLING OR USING SUCH SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE THAT YOU
HAVE READ AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS TSL
AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH SUCH TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOU MAY NOT
INSTALL OR USE SUCH SOFTWARE. IF YOU ARE INSTALLING OR USING SUCH SOFTWARE ON
BEHALF OF A LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY
TO AGREE TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS TSL AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF THAT
LEGAL ENTITY AND THE RIGHT TO BIND THAT LEGAL ENTITY TO THIS TSL AGREEMENT.
This TSL Agreement is entered into by and between Timescale, Inc. ("Timescale")
and you or the legal entity on whose behalf you are accepting this TSL
Agreement ("You").
0. BACKGROUND
The Timescale time-series database software and related software is offered
as "open code" or "source-available" code. This means that all source code
of the software is available for inspection and download at
https://github.com/timescale. The Timescale software is composed of two
major pieces.
The first, core piece (referred to herein as the Timescale Open Source
Software, as defined below) is open source software that is licensed under
the Apache Version 2.0 license.
The second piece (referred to herein as the TSL Licensed Software, as
defined below) is all of the Timescale Software other than the Timescale
Open Source Software.
Certain functions or features of the TSL Licensed Software (referred to
herein as Community Features, as defined below) may be used under this TSL
Agreement without charge, in some cases subject to certain usage limits that
may be imposed by a software license key and/or technical restrictions in
the code.
Certain other functions or features of the TSL Licensed Software (referred
to herein as Enterprise Features, as defined below) may be used either
solely under a Commercial License Agreement subject to charge, or under this
TSL Agreement without charge only for a limited time trial period. In order
to use such features, You must obtain an appropriate license key.
You may find more information at https://www.timescale.com/pricing about
which functions and features of the TSL Licensed Software are classified as
Community Features and Enterprise Features, details about any applicable
usage limits and trial periods, and a description of how You can obtain any
required license keys and enter into a Commercial License Agreement with
Timescale.
1. GOVERNING LICENSES
1.1 Source Code. The source code for all Timescale Software is made
publicly available by Timescale at https://github.com/timescale. However,
different license agreements govern the use of different parts of the
Timescale Software source code. The use of Timescale Open Source Software,
in both source and executable forms, is governed by the terms of the Apache
License Version 2.0, a copy of which is available at
https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0. The use of all other Timescale
Software in source code form is governed by this TSL Agreement and/or a
Commercial License Agreement, as applicable.
1.2 Commercial License Rights. If You desire to use Community Features
beyond applicable Usage Limits, or to use Enterprise Features beyond an
applicable trial period (or those Enterprise Features that are not available
for use under this TSL Agreement at all), as the case may be, You must
obtain an appropriate License Key and enter into a Commercial License
Agreement with Timescale, subject to applicable charges.
1.3 License Rights to Your Customers. As set forth in Section 2.1 below,
the use by Your customers of the Timescale Software as part of any Value
Added Products or Services that You distribute will be subject to the most
current version of this TSL Agreement, including any applicable Usage Limits
and restrictions on the use of Enterprise Features. If Your customers
desire to use any functions or features of the Timescale Software beyond
applicable Usage Limits, or to use Enterprise Features, they must enter into
a Commercial License Agreement with Timescale and obtain any necessary
License Keys.
2. GRANT OF LICENSES

of this TSL Agreement, Timescale grants to You at no charge the following

any person or entity other than You or Your employees and Contractors
working on Your behalf, and (ii) solely in compliance with all applicable
Usage Limits and any limits imposed on the use of Enterprise Features by
a License Key or the Timescale Software itself. You agree not to use the

Affiliates to exercise the licenses set forth in Section 2.1, provided that
such exercise by Contractors must be solely for your benefit and/or the
benefit of Your Affiliates, and You shall be responsible for all acts and
omissions of such Contractors and Affiliates in connection with such
exercise of the licenses, including but not limited to breach of any
applicable Usage Limits, limits imposed by a License Key, or other terms of

8.1 Complete Agreement. This TSL Agreement completely and exclusively
states the entire agreement of the parties regarding the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior proposals, agreements, or other
communications between the parties, oral or written, regarding such subject
matter.
8.2 Modification. This TSL Agreement may be modified by Timescale from time
to time, and any such modifications will be effective upon the "Posted Date"
set forth at the top of the modified agreement. The modified agreement shall
govern any new version of the TSL Licensed Software (and all its constituent
source code and binaries) that is officially released as a complete version
release by Timescale on or after such Posted Date. Except as set forth in
this Section 8.2, this TSL Agreement may not be amended except by a writing

8.3 Governing Law. This TSL Agreement shall be governed by and construed
solely under the laws of the State of New York, without application of any
choice of law rules or principles that would lead to the applicability of
the law of any other jurisdiction. None of the provisions of either the
United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods
or the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act shall apply.
8.4 Unenforceability. If any provision of this TSL Agreement is held
unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this TSL Agreement shall remain
in effect and the unenforceable provision shall be replaced by an
enforceable provision that best reflects the original intent of the parties.
