License. As a condition of exercising the rights granted
under Section 2.1 a) above, You agree to comply with the
following:
a) Your Contribution to the Community. All Error
Corrections and Shared Modifications which You create or
contribute to are automatically subject to the licenses
granted under Section 2.2 above. You are encouraged to
license all of Your other Modifications under Section 2.2 as
Shared Modifications, but are not required to do so. You
agree to notify Original Contributor of any errors in the
Specification.
b) Source Code Availability. You agree to provide all Your
Error Corrections to Original Contributor as soon as
reasonably practicable and, in any event, prior to Internal
Deployment Use or Commercial Use, if applicable. Original
Contributor may, at its discretion, post Source Code for
Your Error Corrections and Shared Modifications on the
Community Webserver. You may also post Error Corrections
and Shared Modifications on a web-server of Your choice;
provided, that You must take reasonable precautions to
ensure that only Licensees have access to such Error
Corrections and Shared Modifications. Such precautions
shall include, without limitation, a password protection
scheme limited to Licensees and a click-on, download
certification of Licensee status required of those
attempting to download from the server. An example of an
acceptable certification is attached as Attachment A-2.
c) Notices. All Error Corrections and Shared Modifications
You create or contribute to must include a file documenting
the additions and changes You made and the date of such
additions and changes. You must also include the notice set
forth in Attachment A-1 in the file header. If it is not
possible to put the notice in a particular Source Code file
due to its structure, then You must include the notice in a
location (such as a relevant directory file), where a
recipient would be most likely to look for such a notice.
d) Redistribution.
(i) Source. Covered Code may be distributed in Source Code
form only to another Licensee (except for students as
provided below). You may not offer or impose any terms on
any Covered Code that alter the rights, requirements, or
responsibilities of such Licensee. You may distribute
Covered Code to students for use in connection with their
course work and research projects undertaken at accredited
educational institutions. Such students need not be
Licensees, but must be given a copy of the notice set forth
in Attachment A-3 and such notice must also be included in a
file header or prominent location in the Source Code made
available to such students.
(ii) Executable. You may distribute Executable version(s)
of Covered Code to Licensees and other third parties only
for the purpose of evaluation and comment in connection with
Research Use by You and under a license of Your choice, but
which limits use of such Executable version(s) of Covered
Code only to that purpose.
(iii) Modified Class,Interface and Package Naming. In
connection with Research Use by You only, You may use
Original Contributor's class, interface and package names
only to accurately reference or invoke the Source Code files
You modify. Original Contributor grants to You a litmited
license to the extent necessary for such purposes.
(iv) You expressly agree that any distribution, in whole or
in part, of Modifications developed by You shall only be
done pursuant to the term and conditions of this License.
e) Extensions.
(i) Covered Code. You may not include any Source Code of
Community Code in any Extensions;
(ii) Publication. No later than the date on which You first
distribute such Extension for Commercial Use, You must
publish to the industry, on a non-confidential basis and
free of all copyright restrictions with respect to
reproduction and use, an accurate and current specification
for any Extension. In addition, You must make available an
appropriate test suite, pursuant to the same rights as the
specification, sufficiently detailed to allow any third
party reasonably skilled in the technology to produce
implementations of the Extension compatible with the
specification. Such test suites must be made available as
soon as reasonably practicable but, in no event, later than
ninety (90) days after Your first Commercial Use of the
Extension. You must use reasonable efforts to promptly
clarify and correct the specification and the test suite
upon written request by Original Contributor.
(iii) Open. You agree to refrain from enforcing any
Intellectual Property Rights You may have covering any
interface(s) of Your Extension, which would prevent the
implementation of such interface(s) by Original Contributor
or any Licensee. This obligation does not prevent You from
enforcing any Intellectual Property Right You have that
would otherwise be infringed by an implementation of Your
Extension.
(iv) Class, Interface and Package Naming. You may not add
any packages, or any public or protected classes or
interfaces with names that originate or might appear to
originate from Original Contributor including, without
limitation, package or class names which begin with "sun",
"java", "javax", "jini", "net.jini", "com.sun" or their
equivalents in any subsequent class, interface and/ or
package naming convention adopted by Original Contributor.
It is specifically suggested that You name any new packages
using the "Unique Package Naming Convention" as described in
"The Java Language Specification" by James Gosling, Bill
Joy, and Guy Steele, ISBN 0-201-63451-1, August 1996.
Section 7.7 "Unique Package Names", on page 125 of this
specification which states, in part:
"You form a unique package name by first having (or
belonging to an organization that has) an Internet domain
name, such as "sun.com". You then reverse the name,
component by component, to obtain, in this example,
"Com.sun", and use this as a prefix for Your package names,
using a convention developed within Your organization to
further administer package names."
3.2 Additional Requirements and Responsibilities. Any
additional requirements and responsibilities relating to the
Technology are listed in Attachment F (Additional
Requirements and Responsibilities), if applicable, and are
hereby incorporated into this Section 3.

proceeding brought against You, to the extent it is based on
a claim that Your authorized Commercial Use of Original Code
and Upgraded Code is an infringement of a third party trade
secret or a copyright in a country that is a signatory to
the Berne Convention, and will pay all damages costs and
fees awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction, or such
settlement amount negotiated by Original Contributor,
attributable to such claim. The foregoing shall not apply

c) Right of Intervention. Original Contributor will have
the right, but not the obligation, to defend You, at
Original Contributor's expense, in connection with a claim
that Your Commercial Use of Original Code and Upgraded Code
is an infringement of a third party patent and will, if

without the indemnifying party's prior written consent.
e) Additional Remedies. Should any Original Code, Upgraded
Code, TCK, Specifications, or Modifications become, or in
the indemnifying party's opinion be likely to become, the
subject of a claim of infringement for which indemnity is
provided above, the indemnifying party may, at its sole
option, attempt to procure on reasonable terms the rights
necessary for the indemnified party to exercise its license
rights under this License with respect to the infringing
items, or to modify the infringing items so that they are no
longer infringing without substantially impairing their
function or performance. If the indemnifying party is
unable to do the foregoing after reasonable efforts, then
the indemnifying party may send a notice of such inability
to the indemnified party together with a refund of any
license fees received by the indemnifying party from the
indemnified party for the infringing items applicable to the
indemnified party's future use or distribution of such
infringing items, in which case the indemnif ying party will
not be liable for any damages resulting from infringing
activity with respect to the infringing items occurring
after such notice and refund.

Covered code.
7. Royalties and Payments.
Technology specified in Attachment B.
Field of Use:____________________
Royalty per Unit $_____________
b) Royalty Payments. Payment of royalties shall be made
quarterly, shall be due thirty (30) days following the end
of the calendar quarter to which they relate and shall be
submitted with a written statement documenting the basis for
the royalty calculation.
c) Taxes. All payments required by this License shall be
made in United States dollars, are exclusive of taxes, and
Licensee agrees to bear and be responsible for the payment
of all such taxes, including, but not limited to, all sales,
use, rental receipt, personal property or other taxes and
their equivalents which may be levied or assessed in
connection with this License (excluding only taxes based on
Original Contributor's net income). To the extent Licensee
is required to withhold taxes based upon Original
Contributor's income in any country, You agree to provide
Original Contributor with written evidence of such
withholding, suitable for Original Contributor to obtain a
tax credit in the United States.
d) Records. You agree to maintain account books and records
consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
appropriate to Your domicile, as may be in effect from time
to time, sufficient to allow the correctness of the
royalties required to be paid pursuant to this License to be
determined.
e) Audit Rights. Original Contributor shall have the right
to audit such accounts upon reasonable prior notice using an
independent auditor of Original Contributor's choice (the
"Auditor"). The Auditor shall be bound to keep confidential
the details of Your business affairs and to limit disclosure
of the results of any audit to the sufficiency of the
accounts and the amount, if any, of a payment adjustment
that should be made. Such audits shall not occur more than
once each year (unless discrepancies are discovered in
excess of the five percent (5%) threshold set forth in
Section 7.f) below, in which case two consecutive quarters
per year may be audited). Except as set forth in Section
7.f) below, Original Contributor shall bear all costs and
expenses associated with the exercise of its rights to
audit.
f) Payment Errors. In the event that any errors in payments
shall be determined, such errors shall be corrected by
appropriate adjustment in payment for the quarterly period
during which the error is discovered. In the event of an
underpayment of more than five percent (5%) of the proper
amount owed, upon such underpayment being properly
determined by the Auditor, You agree to reimburse Original
Contributor the amount of the underpayment and all
reasonable costs and expenses associated with the exercise
of its rights to audit, and interest on the overdue amount
at the maximum allowable interest rate from the date of
accrual of such obligation.
8. Notice of Breach or Infringement. Each party shall
notify the other immediately in writing when it becomes
aware of any breach or violation of the terms of this
License, or when You become aware of any potential or actual
infringement by a third party of the Technology or Sun's
Intellectual Property Rights therein.
9. Proprietary Rights Notices. You may not remove any
copyright notices, trademark notices or other proprietary
legends of Original Contributor or its suppliers contained
on or in the Original Code, Upgraded Code and

1. TCK License.
a) Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 1.b
below and Section 8.10 of the Research Use license, in
addition to the Research Use license, Original Contributor
grants to You a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable
license, to the extent of Original Contributor's
Intellectual Property Rights in the TCK (without the right
to sublicense), to use the TCK to develop and test Covered
Code.
b) TCK Use Restrictions. You are not authorized to create
derivative works of the TCK or use the TCK to test any
implementation of the Specification that is not Covered
Code. You may not publish your test results or make claims
of comparative compatibility with respect to other
implementations of the Specification. In consideration for
the license grant in Section 1.a above you agree not to
develop your own tests which are intended to validate
conformation with the Specification.
2. Requirements for Determining Compliance.
2.1 Definitions.
a) "Added Value" means code which:
(i) has a principal purpose which is substantially different
from that of the stand-alone Technology;
(ii) represents a significant functional and value
enhancement to the Technology;
(iii) operates in conjunction with the Technology; and
(iv) is not marketed as a technology which replaces or
substitutes for the Technology.
b) "Java Classes" means the specific class libraries
associated with each Technology defined in Attachment B.
c) "Java Runtime Interpreter" means the program(s) which
implement the Java virtual machine for the Technology as
defined in the Specification.
d) "Platform Dependent Part" means those Original Code and
Upgraded Code files of the Technology which are not in a
"share" directory or subdirectory thereof.
e) "Shared Part" means those Original Code and Upgraded Code
files of the Technology which are identified as "shared" (or
words of similar meaning) or which are in any "share"
directory or subdirectory thereof, except those files
specifically designated by Original Contributor as
modifiable.
f) "User's Guide" means the users guide for the TCK which
Sun makes available to You to provide direction in how to
run the TCK and properly interpret the results, as may be
revised by Sun from time to time.
2.2 Development Restrictions. Compliant Covered Code:
a) must include Added Value;
b) must fully comply with the Specifications for the
Technology specified in Attachment B;
c) must include the Shared Part, complete and unmodified;
d) may not modify the functional behavior of the Java
Runtime Interpreter or the Java Classes;
e) may not modify, subset or superset the interfaces of the
Java Runtime Interpreter or the Java Classes;
f) may not subset or superset the Java Classes; and
g) may not modify or extend the required public class or
public interface declarations whose names begin with "java",
"javax", "jini", "net.jini", "sun.hotjava", "COM.sun" or
their equivalents in any subsequent naming convention.
2.3 Compatibility Testing. Successful compatibility testing
must be completed by You, or at Original Contributor's
option, a third party designated by Original Contributor, to
conduct such tests, in accordance with the User's Guide, and
using the most current version of the applicable TCK
available from Original Contributor one hundred twenty (120)
days (two hundred forty [240] days in the case of silicon
implementations) prior to: (i) Your Internal Deployment
Use; and (ii) each release of Compliant Covered Code by You
for Commercial Use. In the event that You elect to use a
version of Upgraded Code that is newer than that which is
required under this Section 2.3, then You agree to pass the
version of the TCK that corresponds to such newer version of
Upgraded Code.
2.4 Test Results. You agree to provide to Original
Contributor or the third party test facility if applicable,
Your test results that demonstrate that Covered Code is
Compliant Covered Code and that Original Contributor may
publish or otherwise distribute such test results.
