(l) display or distribute any part of the Licensed Material on any electronic network, including without limitation the Internet, and the World Wide Web, and any other distribution medium now in existence or hereinafter created;
Commercial Use is defined as “use of the Jorum Material for the purpose of monetary reward by means of the sale, resale, loan, transfer, hire or other form of exploitation of the Licensed Material”. For the avoidance of doubt, the recovery of direct cost by the Licensee from Authorised Users, nor use by Authorised Users of the Licensed Material in the course of research funded by a commercial organisation is deemed to constitute Commercial Use.
