The Company owns, free and clear of claims or rights or any other Person, with full right to use, or, to the knowledge of the Company, has acquired licenses or other rights to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as presently conducted (other than with respect to software which is generally commercially available and not used or incorporated into the Company’s products and open source software which may be subject to one or more “general public” licenses), except as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All works that are used or incorporated into the Company’s services, products or services or products actively under development and which are proprietary to the Company were developed by or for the Company by its current or former employees, consultants or independent contractors or those of its predecessors in interest or purchased or licensed by the Company or its predecessors in interest.

3.12
Taxation. In the Company’s judgment, the financial statements contained in the Sapiens SEC Reports make adequate provisions for taxation for which the Company was then liable or accountable, to the extent required under United States GAAP, and the Company has promptly paid or provided in its books of account for all such taxation liability.
3.13
No Finders Fee.
