Software Information Product Name: blah.™ Version: the version accompanying this Agreement (shown in the About panel) Platform(s): Windows and macOS desktop (downloaded/installed) blah.™ is a local, GPU-accelerated dictation application that transcribes the Licensee's spoken voice, automatically cleans and formats the resulting text, and optionally translates that text into more than twenty (20) languages of the Licensee's choosing. The Software performs all core processing — including speech recognition, text cleanup, and translation — locally on the Licensee's device. Voice audio and transcription output are never transmitted to Licensor or to any remote server. 3.1 Third-Party Components The Software incorporates third-party software components and machine- learning model weights, including components licensed under open-source licenses (such as whisper.cpp, Apple MLX, and FFmpeg) and the Gemma language model, which is provided subject to Google's Gemma Terms of Use and Prohibited Use Policy. These components are governed by their own license terms, copies of which are included with the Software (see THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.txt and the licenses folder inside the application bundle). Nothing in this Agreement limits any rights granted to You by an applicable third-party or open-source license, and Your use of the Gemma model weights bundled with the Software is subject to Google's Gemma Prohibited Use Policy. 4. Copyright Notice The Software, including all code, documentation, user interface elements, audio processing algorithms, translation modules, and associated materials, is the exclusive intellectual property of Clover LDT, LLC or its licensors and is protected by the copyright laws of the United States, the State of Idaho, and applicable international treaties and conventions. © 2026 Clover LDT, LLC. All rights reserved. blah.™ is a trademark of Clover LDT, LLC. Unauthorized reproduction, distribution, modification, reverse engineering, or commercial exploitation of the Software, in whole or in part, is strictly prohibited and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent permitted by law. 5. Infringement Acknowledgment By accepting this Agreement, the Licensee expressly acknowledges and agrees that: The Software is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws; Any unauthorized copying, modification, distribution, sale, sublicensing, or reverse engineering of the Software constitutes copyright infringement and may also constitute a violation of trade secret, patent, and other laws; Responsibility for any copyright infringement arising from the Licensee's use or misuse of the Software is assigned solely to the Licensee; and Clover LDT, LLC reserves the right to pursue all available legal and equitable remedies for any infringement, including injunctive relief and monetary damages. 6. License Grant Subject to the Licensee's full compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Clover LDT, LLC hereby grants the Licensee a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to: Download, install, and use one (1) copy of the Software on one (1) Authorized Device at a time, owned or controlled by the Licensee; Use the Software in the Licensee's personal capacity, including for the Licensee's own professional and workplace purposes; and Access support resources made available by Licensor in connection with the Software. This license is personal to You. It does not permit reselling the Software, providing the Software or its output as a service to third parties, deploying the Software for use by other individuals, or purchasing on behalf of an organization for multiple users — each user requires their own license. Volume and organizational licensing are available from Licensor on request. This license does not constitute a sale of the Software or any copy thereof. Clover LDT, LLC retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software, including all intellectual property rights therein. 7. Authorized Device and Activation The license granted in Section 6 is limited to one (1) Authorized Device at a time. Activation binds the License Key to the Authorized Device using a one-way cryptographic hash of a hardware identifier; the raw hardware identifier never leaves the device. The Licensee may move the license to a different device once every sixty (60) days by deactivating the Software on the current Authorized Device (via the in-application deactivation control) and then activating it on the new device. Deactivation is the only self-serve way to release a license from a device; there are no automatic or forced transfers. If the Authorized Device has been lost or has failed and cannot be deactivated, contact Licensor support at support@blah.audio for assistance. Deactivation releases the license from the device. The Licensee must not retain, copy, or restore license files in order to continue using the Software on a device after it has been deactivated, or to use the Software on more devices than licensed; any such use is unlicensed and a material breach of this Agreement. (Restoring a device from a backup while it remains the licensed Authorized Device — for example, a system restore — is permitted.) Licensee must not share, publish, transfer, or reassign License Key credentials to any other person. Installation for use by other individuals or entities is not permitted under this Agreement and requires the purchase of a separate license. 8. Restrictions on Use Licensee shall not, and shall not permit any third party to, do any of the following: Reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, decode, adapt, or otherwise attempt to derive or gain access to the source code of the Software, in whole or in part, except to the extent such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law or by an applicable open-source license notwithstanding this limitation; Copy, reproduce, or duplicate the Software except as expressly permitted by this Agreement; Distribute, sell, resell, transfer, assign, sublicense, lend, rent, lease, or otherwise make the Software available to any third party; Modify, translate, adapt, or create derivative works based upon the Software; Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright notice, trademark, or proprietary legend appearing on or within the Software; Circumvent, disable, or tamper with the License Key activation mechanism or any other technological protection measure in the Software, including by retaining or restoring license files to evade deactivation; Use the Software for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation, or use the bundled Gemma model in violation of Google's Gemma Prohibited Use Policy; Export or re-export the Software in violation of United States export control laws and regulations; or Resell the Software or provide it (or its output) as a commercial service to third parties without a separate agreement with Licensor. 9. User Data and Privacy The Software performs all dictation processing locally. Voice audio, transcripts, and Software output are processed entirely on the Licensee's device and are never transmitted to Licensor. The Software contains no analytics, telemetry, or tracking. Licensor collects only the limited information necessary to sell and manage licenses: Licensee email address (for license delivery, license management, and support communications); At activation: the License Key, a one-way cryptographic hash of a device hardware identifier (the raw identifier never leaves the device), and an optional device nickname supplied by the Licensee (used to identify the activation, e.g. "my laptop"). Purchases are processed by Licensor's merchant of record (Paddle), which handles payment and billing information under its own terms and privacy policy; Licensor does not receive or store Your full payment card details. Clover LDT, LLC processes Personal Data in compliance with the following frameworks, to the extent applicable: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679; and The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et seq., and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). Licensor will not sell Licensee's Personal Data to third parties. Licensees in applicable jurisdictions retain rights to access, correct, delete, or port their Personal Data by contacting Licensor at support@blah.audio. A full Privacy Policy governing data practices is incorporated by reference; it is included with the Software and available at Licensor's official website. 10. Maintenance and Support 10.1 Standard Support Licensor provides standard support to Licensees via: Email support at support@blah.audio during normal business hours (Mountain Time, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays); and An online Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) resource accessible through Licensor's official website. Licensor will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to support inquiries in a timely manner. Response times are not guaranteed. 10.2 Updates and Upgrade Window The license granted under this Agreement is perpetual with respect to any version of the Software released on or before the end of the Licensee's Upgrade Window (twelve (12) months from the date of purchase). During the Upgrade Window, all Software updates released by Licensor — including new features, enhancements, compatibility updates, and bug fixes — are included at no additional charge. Versions released after the Upgrade Window ends require the purchase of a license renewal at Licensor's then-current pricing. If the Licensee chooses not to renew, the Licensee may continue to use, forever, any version released during the Upgrade Window; the Software does not expire, phone home, or disable itself. 10.3 Scheduled Maintenance The Software's dictation functionality operates entirely locally and is not affected by any server maintenance. Licensor's activation service may be briefly unavailable from time to time; this affects only new activations and device moves, never already-activated Software. 10.4 Refunds Purchases may be refunded within fourteen (14) days of purchase through Licensor's merchant of record, subject to its checkout terms. Deactivating the Software on the Authorized Device is required as part of any refund; upon refund, the license is cancelled and the Licensee must cease use of and remove the Software. 11. Disclaimer of Warranties THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CLOVER LDT, LLC EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE; AND (C) ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. Transcription, text cleanup, and translation are produced by on-device machine-learning models. Licensor does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or suitability of any transcription, cleanup, translation, or other output produced by the Software; such output may contain errors, omissions, or alterations of meaning. Results may vary based on hardware capability, microphone quality, ambient noise, speaker accent, and other factors outside Licensor's control. The Licensee is responsible for reviewing Software output before relying on it, and assumes all risk associated with such reliance. 12. Limitation of Liability TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CLOVER LDT, LLC, ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF CLOVER LDT, LLC HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no event shall Licensor's total cumulative liability to Licensee under this Agreement exceed the total amounts actually paid by Licensee to Licensor for the Software license. 13.

Term and Termination This Agreement is effective upon the Licensee's acceptance and continues in perpetuity with respect to the licensed version(s) unless terminated in accordance with this Section. Licensor may terminate this Agreement and the license granted hereunder immediately and without prior notice if Licensee: Violates any restriction on use set forth in Section 8, including any attempt to reverse engineer the Software or circumvent the License Key mechanism; Fails to comply with any material term or condition of this Agreement; Uses the Software in a manner that infringes the intellectual property rights of Licensor or any third party; Provides false or fraudulent information in connection with the license or a support request; or Uses the Software in violation of any applicable law or regulation. Licensor may discontinue offering the Software for sale, and may discontinue support and updates, at any time; doing so does not affect licenses already purchased, which remain valid per this Agreement. A validly purchased license will not be revoked except for cause as set forth above. Upon termination, Licensee must immediately cease all use of the Software, destroy all copies in Licensee's possession or control, and, upon request, certify in writing that Licensee has done so.
