The FOSS itself does not contribute to the sales price of the Services and thus is provided without royalty or monetary compensation.

Further, you have to agree that updates or new versions of the Services may contain different or additional FOSS or changes in the FOSS-Licenses.

You agree not to settle any such claim without Bosch’s prior written consent. Bosch will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action or proceeding upon becoming aware of it.
