+GAMESS User License Agreement
+
+All GAMESS requestors MUST agree to the following license 
+aggrement which covers all versions of GAMESS (source code, 
+and binaries for Windows, Macintosh and ChemOffice).
+With regard to the ab initio quantum chemistry code GAMESS, 
+together with its associated graphics and utility programs, 
+with which you have supplied me a copy, I agree to the following 
+conditions:
+
+1. I will not supply a copy of the code to anyone outside my 
+institution or corporation for any reason whatsoever. Instead, 
+I will refer any requests for copies of the program to you at 
+ISUQCG. This in no way limits my making of copies of the code 
+for backup purposes, or for running on more than one computer 
+system at my institution or home.
+
+2. I understand that copyright or ownership rights to GAMESS 
+are retained by ISUQCG and contributors to the GAMESS package. 
+I will not incorporate any part of GAMESS into any other program 
+system, either for sale or for non-profit distribution, without 
+written permission from ISUQCG,
+
+3. I understand that no large program such as GAMESS can be 
+considered to be bug free, and accordingly the ISUQCG supplies 
+the GAMESS software on an "as is" basis, with no additional 
+responsibility or liability,
+
+4. If results obtained with GAMESS are published in the 
+scientific literature, I will reference the program from the 
+article M.W.Schmidt, K.K.Baldridge, J.A.Boatz, S.T.Elbert, 
+M.S.Gordon, J.H.Jensen, S.Koseki, N.Matsunaga, K.A.Nguyen, 
+S.J.Su, T.L.Windus, M.Dupuis, J.A.Montgomery 
+J. Comput. Chem. 14, 1347-1363 (1993). Using specific methods 
+included in GAMESS may require citing additional articles, 
+as described in the manual. I agree to honor the request to 
+cite additional papers, as appropriate.
+
+5. This license is considered a "Research Group" license. 
+Thus anyone directly associated with your research group is 
+covered by the license and may share your copy of GAMESS on 
+all of your group's computer resources.
