| 156 | + |
| 157 | + Any Covered Software that You distribute or otherwise make |
| 158 | + available in Executable form must also be made available in Source |
| 159 | + Code form and that Source Code form must be distributed only under |
| 160 | + the terms of this License. You must include a copy of this |
| 161 | + License with every copy of the Source Code form of the Covered |
| 162 | + Software You distribute or otherwise make available. You must |
| 163 | + inform recipients of any such Covered Software in Executable form |
| 164 | + as to how they can obtain such Covered Software in Source Code |
| 165 | + form in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily |
| 166 | + used for software exchange. |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | + 3.2. Modifications. |
| 169 | + |
| 170 | + The Modifications that You create or to which You contribute are |
| 171 | + governed by the terms of this License. You represent that You |
| 172 | + believe Your Modifications are Your original creation(s) and/or |
| 173 | + You have sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this |
| 174 | + License. |
| 175 | + |
| 176 | + 3.3. Required Notices. |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | + You must include a notice in each of Your Modifications that |
| 179 | + identifies You as the Contributor of the Modification. You may |
| 180 | + not remove or alter any copyright, patent or trademark notices |
| 181 | + contained within the Covered Software, or any notices of licensing |
| 182 | + or any descriptive text giving attribution to any Contributor or |
| 183 | + the Initial Developer. |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | + 3.4. Application of Additional Terms. |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | + You may not offer or impose any terms on any Covered Software in |
| 188 | + Source Code form that alters or restricts the applicable version |
| 189 | + of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder. You may |
| 190 | + choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, |
| 191 | + indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of |
| 192 | + Covered Software. However, you may do so only on Your own behalf, |
| 193 | + and not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor. |
| 194 | + You must make it absolutely clear that any such warranty, support, |
| 195 | + indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You |
| 196 | + hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every |
| 197 | + Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or |
| 198 | + such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or |
| 199 | + liability terms You offer. |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | + 3.5. Distribution of Executable Versions. |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | + You may distribute the Executable form of the Covered Software |
| 204 | + under the terms of this License or under the terms of a license of |
| 205 | + Your choice, which may contain terms different from this License, |
| 206 | + provided that You are in compliance with the terms of this License |
| 207 | + and that the license for the Executable form does not attempt to |
| 208 | + limit or alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code form from |
| 209 | + the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute the |
| 210 | + Covered Software in Executable form under a different license, You |
| 211 | + must make it absolutely clear that any terms which differ from |
| 212 | + this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial |
| 213 | + Developer or Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the |
| 214 | + Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred |
| 215 | + by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any |
| 216 | + such terms You offer. |
| 217 | + |
| 218 | + 3.6. Larger Works. |
| 219 | + |
| 220 | + You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Software with |
| 221 | + other code not governed by the terms of this License and |
| 222 | + distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, |
| 223 | + You must make sure the requirements of this License are fulfilled |
| 224 | + for the Covered Software. |
| 225 | + |
| 226 | +4. Versions of the License. |
| 227 | + |
| 228 | + 4.1. New Versions. |
| 229 | + |
| 230 | + Sun Microsystems, Inc. is the initial license steward and may |
| 231 | + publish revised and/or new versions of this License from time to |
| 232 | + time. Each version will be given a distinguishing version number. |
| 233 | + Except as provided in Section 4.3, no one other than the license |
| 234 | + steward has the right to modify this License. |
| 235 | + |
| 236 | + 4.2. Effect of New Versions. |
| 237 | + |
| 238 | + You may always continue to use, distribute or otherwise make the |
| 239 | + Covered Software available under the terms of the version of the |
| 240 | + License under which You originally received the Covered Software. |
| 241 | + If the Initial Developer includes a notice in the Original |
| 242 | + Software prohibiting it from being distributed or otherwise made |
| 243 | + available under any subsequent version of the License, You must |
| 244 | + distribute and make the Covered Software available under the terms |
| 245 | + of the version of the License under which You originally received |
| 246 | + the Covered Software. Otherwise, You may also choose to use, |
| 247 | + distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software available under |
| 248 | + the terms of any subsequent version of the License published by |
| 249 | + the license steward. |
| 250 | + |
| 251 | + 4.3. Modified Versions. |
| 252 | + |
| 253 | + When You are an Initial Developer and You want to create a new |
| 254 | + license for Your Original Software, You may create and use a |
| 255 | + modified version of this License if You: (a) rename the license |
| 256 | + and remove any references to the name of the license steward |
| 257 | + (except to note that the license differs from this License); and |
| 258 | + (b) otherwise make it clear that the license contains terms which |
| 259 | + differ from this License. |
| 260 | + |
| 261 | +5. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. |
| 262 | + |
| 263 | + COVERED SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" |
| 264 | + BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, |
| 265 | + INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED |
| 266 | + SOFTWARE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR |
| 267 | + PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND |
| 268 | + PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED SOFTWARE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY |
| 269 | + COVERED SOFTWARE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE |
| 270 | + INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY |
| 271 | + NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF |
| 272 | + WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF |
| 273 | + ANY COVERED SOFTWARE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS |
| 274 | + DISCLAIMER. |
| 275 | + |
| 276 | +6. TERMINATION. |
| 277 | + |
| 278 | + 6.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate |
| 279 | + automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to |
| 280 | + cure such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. |
| 281 | + Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond |
| 282 | + the termination of this License shall survive. |
| 283 | + |
| 284 | + 6.2. If You assert a patent infringement claim (excluding |
| 285 | + declaratory judgment actions) against Initial Developer or a |
| 286 | + Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom You |
| 287 | + assert such claim is referred to as "Participant") alleging that |
| 288 | + the Participant Software (meaning the Contributor Version where |
| 289 | + the Participant is a Contributor or the Original Software where |
| 290 | + the Participant is the Initial Developer) directly or indirectly |
| 291 | + infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted directly or |
| 292 | + indirectly to You by such Participant, the Initial Developer (if |
| 293 | + the Initial Developer is not the Participant) and all Contributors |
| 294 | + under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License shall, upon 60 days |
| 295 | + notice from Participant terminate prospectively and automatically |
| 296 | + at the expiration of such 60 day notice period, unless if within |
| 297 | + such 60 day period You withdraw Your claim with respect to the |
| 298 | + Participant Software against such Participant either unilaterally |
| 299 | + or pursuant to a written agreement with Participant. |
| 300 | + |
| 301 | + 6.3. In the event of termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2 above, |
| 302 | + all end user licenses that have been validly granted by You or any |
| 303 | + distributor hereunder prior to termination (excluding licenses |
| 304 | + granted to You by any distributor) shall survive termination. |
| 305 | + |
| 306 | +7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. |
| 307 | + |
| 308 | + UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT |
| 309 | + (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE |
| 310 | + INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF |
| 311 | + COVERED SOFTWARE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE |
| 312 | + LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR |
| 313 | + CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT |
| 314 | + LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK |
| 315 | + STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER |
| 316 | + COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN |
| 317 | + INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF |
| 318 | + LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL |
| 319 | + INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT |
| 320 | + APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO |
| 321 | + NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR |
| 322 | + CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT |
| 323 | + APPLY TO YOU. |
| 324 | + |
| 325 | +8. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS. |
| 326 | + |
| 327 | + The Covered Software is a "commercial item," as that term is |
| 328 | + defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial |
| 329 | + computer software" (as that term is defined at 48 |
| 330 | + C.F.R. 252.227-7014(a)(1)) and "commercial computer software |
| 331 | + documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 |
| 332 | + (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 |
| 333 | + C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all |
| 334 | + U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Software with only those |
| 335 | + rights set forth herein. This U.S. Government Rights clause is in |
| 336 | + lieu of, and supersedes, any other FAR, DFAR, or other clause or |
| 337 | + provision that addresses Government rights in computer software |
| 338 | + under this License. |
| 339 | + |
| 340 | +9. MISCELLANEOUS. |
| 341 | + |
| 342 | + This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject |
| 343 | + matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be |
| 344 | + unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent |
| 345 | + necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed |
| 346 | + by the law of the jurisdiction specified in a notice contained |
| 347 | + within the Original Software (except to the extent applicable law, |
| 348 | + if any, provides otherwise), excluding such jurisdiction's |
| 349 | + conflict-of-law provisions. Any litigation relating to this |
| 350 | + License shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts located |
| 351 | + in the jurisdiction and venue specified in a notice contained |
| 352 | + within the Original Software, with the losing party responsible |
| 353 | + for costs, including, without limitation, court costs and |
| 354 | + reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. The application of the |
| 355 | + United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale |
| 356 | + of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or regulation which |
| 357 | + provides that the language of a contract shall be construed |
| 358 | + against the drafter shall not apply to this License. You agree |
| 359 | + that You alone are responsible for compliance with the United |
| 360 | + States export administration regulations (and the export control |
| 361 | + laws and regulation of any other countries) when You use, |
| 362 | + distribute or otherwise make available any Covered Software. |
| 363 | + |
| 364 | +10. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS. |
| 365 | + |
| 366 | + As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is |
| 367 | + responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or |
| 368 | + indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License |
| 369 | + and You agree to work with Initial Developer and Contributors to |
| 370 | + distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing |
| 371 | + herein is intended or shall be deemed to constitute any admission |
| 372 | + of liability. |
| 373 | + |
