3. Distribution Obligations.

3.1. Availability of Source Code. Any Covered Software that You distribute 
or otherwise make available in Executable form must also be made available 
in Source Code form and that Source Code form must be distributed only under 
the terms of this License. You must include a copy of this License with 
every copy of the Source Code form of the Covered Software You distribute 
or otherwise make available. You must inform recipients of any such Covered 
Software in Executable form as to how they can obtain such Covered Software 
in Source Code form in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily 
used for software exchange.

3.2. Modifications. The Modifications that You create or to which You 
contribute are governed by the terms of this License. You represent that You 
believe Your Modifications are Your original creation(s) and/or You have 
sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this License.

3.3. Required Notices. You must include a notice in each of Your Modifications 
that identifies You as the Contributor of the Modification. You may not remove 
or alter any copyright, patent or trademark notices contained within the 
Covered Software, or any notices of licensing or any descriptive text giving 
attribution to any Contributor or the Initial Developer.

3.4. Application of Additional Terms. You may not offer or impose any terms 
on any Covered Software in Source Code form that alters or restricts the 
applicable version of this License or the recipients rights hereunder. You 
may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or 
liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Software. However, 
you may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial 
Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that any such 
warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone, 
and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor 
for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a 
result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.

3.5. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute the Executable 
form of the Covered Software under the terms of this License or under the terms 
of a license of Your choice, which may contain terms different from this 
License, provided that You are in compliance with the terms of this License and 
that the license for the Executable form does not attempt to limit or alter 
the recipients rights in the Source Code form from the rights set forth in this 
License. If You distribute the Covered Software in Executable form under a 
different license, You must make it absolutely clear that any terms which 
differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial Developer 
or Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every 
Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such 
Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer.

3.6. Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Software 
with other code not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the 
Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the 
requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Software.

4. Versions of the License.

4.1. New Versions. Sun Microsystems, Inc. is the initial license steward and 
may publish revised and/or new versions of this License from time to time. 
Each version will be given a distinguishing version number. Except as provided 
in Section 4.3, no one other than the license steward has the right to modify 
this License.

4.2. Effect of New Versions. You may always continue to use, distribute or 
otherwise make the Covered Software available under the terms of the version 
of the License under which You originally received the Covered Software. If 
the Initial Developer includes a notice in the Original Software prohibiting 
it from being distributed or otherwise made available under any subsequent 
version of the License, You must distribute and make the Covered Software 
available under the terms of the version of the License under which You 
originally received the Covered Software. Otherwise, You may also choose to 
use, distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software available under the 
terms of any subsequent version of the License published by the license 
steward.

4.3. Modified Versions. When You are an Initial Developer and You want to 
create a new license for Your Original Software, You may create and use a 
modified version of this License if You: (a) rename the license and remove 
any references to the name of the license steward (except to note that the 
license differs from this License); and (b) otherwise make it clear that 
the license contains terms which differ from this License.

5. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. COVERED SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE 
ON AN AS IS BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, 
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED SOFTWARE IS FREE 
OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. 
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED SOFTWARE 
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED SOFTWARE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, 
YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF 
ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY 
CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED SOFTWARE 
IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.

6. TERMINATION.

6.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically 
if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within 
30 days of becoming aware of the breach. Provisions which, by their nature, 
must remain in effect beyond the termination of this License shall survive.

6.2. If You assert a patent infringement claim (excluding declaratory 
judgment actions) against Initial Developer or a Contributor (the Initial 
Developer or Contributor against whom You assert such claim is referred to 
as Participant) alleging that the Participant Software (meaning the Contributor 
Version where the Participant is a Contributor or the Original Software where 
the Participant is the Initial Developer) directly or indirectly infringes any 
patent, then any and all rights granted directly or indirectly to You by such 
Participant, the Initial Developer (if the Initial Developer is not the 
Participant) and all Contributors under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License 
shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively and 
automatically at the expiration of such 60 day notice period, unless if within 
such 60 day period You withdraw Your claim with respect to the Participant 
Software against such Participant either unilaterally or pursuant to a written 
agreement with Participant.

6.3. In the event of termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2 above, all end user 
licenses that have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder 
prior to termination (excluding licenses granted to You by any distributor) 
shall survive termination.

WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE 
INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED 
SOFTWARE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON 
FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER 
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, 
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL 
DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE 
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO 
LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTYS NEGLIGENCE 
TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO 
NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, 
SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

8. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS. The Covered Software is a commercial item, as 
that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of commercial 
computer software (as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R.  252.227-7014(a)(1)) 
and commercial computer software documentation as such terms are used in 48 
C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R.

Government Rights clause is in lieu of, and supersedes, any other FAR, DFAR, 
or other clause or provision that addresses Government rights in computer 
software under this License.

9. MISCELLANEOUS. This License represents the complete agreement concerning 
subject matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be 
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary 
to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed by the law of the 
jurisdiction specified in a notice contained within the Original Software 
(except to the extent applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding 
such jurisdictions conflict-of-law provisions. Any litigation relating to 
this License shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts located in 
the jurisdiction and venue specified in a notice contained within the Original 
Software, with the losing party responsible for costs, including, without 
limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses. The 
application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the 
International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or regulation 
which provides that the language of a contract shall be construed against 
the drafter shall not apply to this License. You agree that You alone are 
responsible for compliance with the United States export administration 
regulations (and the export control laws and regulation of any other 
countries) when You use, distribute or otherwise make available any Covered 
Software.

10. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS. As between Initial Developer and the 
Contributors, each party is responsible for claims and damages arising, 
directly or indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License 
and You agree to work with Initial Developer and Contributors to distribute 
such responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing herein is intended or 
shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.
