Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide, +royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, non-sublicenseable license to do the +following: + + a) to reproduce the Original Work in copies; + + b) to prepare derivative works ("Derivative Works") based upon the + Original Work; + + c) to distribute copies of the Original Work and Derivative Works to + the public, with the proviso that copies of Original Work or + Derivative Works that You distribute shall be licensed under the + Open Software License; + + d) to perform the Original Work publicly; and + + e) to display the Original Work publicly. + +2) Grant of Patent License. Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide, +royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, non-sublicenseable license, under +patent claims owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in the +Original Work as furnished by the Licensor ("Licensed Claims") to make, use, +sell and offer for sale the Original Work. Licensor hereby grants You a +world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, non-sublicenseable license +under the Licensed Claims to make, use, sell and offer for sale Derivative Works. + +3) Grant of Source Code License. The term "Source Code" means the preferred +form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and all available +documentation describing how to modify the Original Work. Licensor hereby +agrees to provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Original +Work along with each copy of the Original Work that Licensor distributes. +Licensor reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing a +machine-readable copy of the Source Code in an information repository reasonably +calculated to permit inexpensive and convenient access by You for as long as + Licensor continues to distribute the Original Work, and by publishing the +address of that information repository in a notice immediately following the +copyright notice that applies to the Original Work. + + +4) Exclusions From License Grant. Nothing in this License shall be deemed to +grant any rights to trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any +other intellectual property of Licensor except as expressly stated herein. No +patent license is granted to make, use, sell or offer to sell embodiments of +any patent claims other than the Licensed Claims defined in Section 2. No +right is granted to the trademarks of Licensor even if such marks are included +in the Original Work. Nothing in this License shall be interpreted to prohibit +Licensor from licensing under different terms from this License any Original +Work that Licensor otherwise would have a right to license. + +5) External Deployment. The term "External Deployment" means the use or +distribution of the Original Work or Derivative Works in any way such that the +Original Work or Derivative Works may be used by anyone other than You, +whether the Original Work or Derivative Works are distributed to those persons +or made available as an application intended for use over a computer network. +As an express condition for the grants of license hereunder, You agree that +any External Deployment by You of a Derivative Work shall be deemed a +distribution and shall be licensed to all under the terms of this License, as +prescribed in section 1(c) herein. + +6) Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any Derivative +Works that You create, all copyright, patent or trademark notices from the +Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices of licensing and any +descriptive text identified therein as an "Attribution Notice." You must cause +the Source Code for any Derivative Works that You create to carry a prominent +Attribution Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that You have +modified the Original Work. + +7) Warranty and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that the copyright +in and to the Original Work is owned by the Licensor or that the Original Work +is distributed by Licensor under a valid current license from the copyright +owner. Except as expressly stated in the immediately proceeding sentence, the +Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS IS" BASIS and WITHOUT +WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without limitation, the +warranties of NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR +PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL WORK IS WITH YOU. +This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part of this License. No +license to Original Work is granted hereunder except under this disclaimer. + +8) Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, +whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall the +Licensor be liable to any person for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, +or consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this License +or the use of the Original Work including, without limitation, damages for +loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and +all other commercial damages or losses. This limitation of liability shall not +apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from Licensor's +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. + + +9) Acceptance and Termination. If You distribute copies of the Original Work +or a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable effort under the circumstances +to obtain the express and volitional assent of recipients to the terms of this +License. Nothing else but this License (or another written agreement between +Licensor and You) grants You permission to create Derivative Works based upon +the Original Work or to exercise any of the rights granted in Sections 1 herein, +and any attempt to do so except under the terms of this License (or another +written agreement between Licensor and You) is expressly prohibited by U.S. +copyright law, the equivalent laws of other countries, and by international +treaty. Therefore, by exercising any of the rights granted to You in Sections +1 herein, You indicate Your acceptance of this License and all of its terms and +conditions. This License shall terminate immediately and you may no longer +exercise any of the rights granted to You by this License upon Your failure to +honor the proviso in Section 1(c) herein. + +10) Mutual Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate +automatically and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You +by this License if You file a lawsuit in any court alleging that any OSI +Certified open source software that is licensed under any license containing +this "Mutual Termination for Patent Action" clause infringes any patent claims +that are essential to use that software. + +11) Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating to this +License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein the Licensor +resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under the laws +of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The application +of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of +Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the Original Work outside the scope of +this License or after its termination shall be subject to the requirements and +penalties of the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. ĺ¤ 101 et seq., the equivalent +laws of other countries, and international treaty. This section shall survive +the termination of this License. + +12) Attorneys Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License or +seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to +recover its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable +attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, including +any appeal of such action. This section shall survive the termination of this +License. + +13) Miscellaneous. This License represents the complete agreement concerning +the 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. + +14) Definition of "You" in This License. "You" throughout this License, +whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a legal entity exercising +rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this License. For legal +entities, "You" includes any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under +common control with you.
