THE LICENSED WORK IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS ADAPTIVE PUBLIC
|
|
|
LICENSE ("LICENSE"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE

|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: This License is "adaptive", and the generic version or
|
|
|
another version of an Adaptive Public License should not be relied upon
|
|
|
to determine your rights and obligations under this License. You must
|
|
|
read the specific Adaptive Public License that you receive with the
|
|
|
Licensed Work, as certain terms are defined at the outset by the
|
|
|
Initial Contributor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
See Section 2.2 below, Exhibit A attached, and any Suppfile.txt

|
|
|
foregoing, (a) for selected choice of law and jurisdiction see Part 3
|
|
|
of Exhibit A; (b) for the selected definition of Third Party see Part 4

2.2. PATENT LICENSE FROM INITIAL AND SUBSEQUENT CONTRIBUTORS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a) This License does not include or grant any patent license
|
|
|
whatsoever from the Initial Contributor, Subsequent
|
|
|
Contributor, or any Distributor unless, at the time the Initial
|
|
|
Work is first distributed or made available under this License
|
|
|
(as the case may be), the Initial Contributor has selected
|
|
|
pursuant to Part 6 of Exhibit A the patent terms in paragraphs
|
|
|
A, B, C, D and E from Part 6 of Exhibit A. If this is not done
|
|
|
then the Initial Work and any other Subsequent Work is made
|
|
|
available under the License without any patent license (the
|
|
|
"PATENTS-EXCLUDED LICENSE").
|
|
|
|
|
|
(b) However, the Initial Contributor may subsequently
|
|
|
distribute or make available (as the case may be) future copies
|
|
|
of: (1) the Initial Work; or (2) any Licensed Work distributed
|
|
|
by the Initial Contributor which includes the Initial Work (or
|
|
|
any portion thereof) and/or any Modification made by the
|
|
|
Initial Contributor; available under a License which includes a
|
|
|
patent license (the "PATENTS-INCLUDED LICENSE") by selecting
|
|
|
pursuant to Part 6 of Exhibit A the patent terms in paragraphs
|
|
|
A, B, C, D and E from Part 6 of Exhibit A, when the Initial
|
|
|
Contributor distributes or makes available (as the case may be)
|
|
|
such future copies under this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(c) If any Recipient receives or obtains one or more copies of
|
|
|
the Initial Work or any other portion of the Licensed Work
|
|
|
under the Patents-Included License, then all licensing of such
|
|
|
copies under this License shall include the terms in paragraphs
|
|
|
A, B, C, D and E from Part 6 of Exhibit A and that Recipient
|
|
|
shall not be able to rely upon the Patents-Excluded License for
|
|
|
any such copies. However, all Recipients that receive one or
|
|
|
more copies of the Initial Work or any other portion of the
|
|
|
Licensed Work under a copy of the License which includes the
|
|
|
Patents-Excluded License shall have no patent license with
|
|
|
respect to such copies received under the Patents-Excluded
|
|
|
License and availability and distribution of such copies,
|
|
|
including Modifications made by such Recipient to such copies,
|
|
|
shall be under a copy of the License without any patent
|
|
|
license.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(d) Where a Recipient uses in combination or combines any copy
|
|
|
of the Licensed Work (or portion thereof) licensed under a copy
|
|
|
of the License having a Patents-Excluded License with any copy
|
|
|
of the Licensed Work (or portion thereof) licensed under a copy
|
|
|
of the License having a Patents-Included License, the
|
|
|
combination (and any portion thereof) shall, from the first
|
|
|
time such Recipient uses, makes available or distributes the
|
|
|
combination (as the case may be), be subject to only the terms
|
|
|
of the License having the Patents-Included License which shall
|
|
|
include the terms in paragraphs A, B, C, D and E from Part 6 of
|
|
|
Exhibit A.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.3. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND DISCLAIMER.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recipient understands and agrees that although Initial Contributor
|
|
|
and each Subsequent Contributor grants the licenses to its
|
|
|
Contributions set forth herein, no representation, warranty,
|
|
|
guarantee or assurance is provided by any Initial Contributor,
|
|
|
Subsequent Contributor, or Distributor that the Licensed Work does
|
|
|
not infringe the patent or other intellectual property rights of
|
|
|
any other entity. Initial Contributor, Subsequent Contributor, and
|
|
|
each Distributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims
|
|
|
brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual
|
|
|
property rights or otherwise, in relation to the Licensed Works. As
|
|
|
a condition to exercising the rights and licenses granted
|
|
|
hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to
|
|
|
secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For
|
|
|
example, without limiting the foregoing disclaimers, if a third
|
|
|
party patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute
|
|
|
the Licensed Work, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that
|
|
|
license before distributing the Licensed Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.4. RESERVATION.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nothing in this License shall be deemed to grant any rights to
|
|
|
trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other
|
|
|
intellectual property of Initial Contributor, Subsequent
|
|
|
Contributor, or Distributor except as expressly stated herein.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. DISTRIBUTION OBLIGATIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.1. DISTRIBUTION GENERALLY.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a) A Subsequent Contributor shall make that Subsequent
|
|
|
Contributor's Subsequent Work(s) available to the public via an
|
|
|
Electronic Distribution Mechanism for a period of at least
|
|
|
twelve (12) months. The aforesaid twelve (12) month period
|
|
|
shall begin within a reasonable time after the creation of the
|
|
|
Subsequent Work and no later than sixty (60) days after first
|
|
|
distribution of that Subsequent Contributor's Subsequent Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(b) All Distributors must distribute the Licensed Work in
|
|
|
accordance with the terms of the License, and must include a
|
|
|
copy of this License (including without limitation Exhibit A
|
|
|
and the accompanying Supplement File) with each copy of the
|
|
|
Licensed Work distributed. In particular, this License must be
|
|
|
prominently distributed with the Licensed Work in a file called
|
|
|
"license.txt." In addition, the License Notice in Part 5 of
|
|
|
Exhibit A must be included at the beginning of all Source Code
|
|
|
files, and viewable to a user in any executable such that the
|
|
|
License Notice is reasonably brought to the attention of any
|
|
|
party using the Licensed Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.2. EXECUTABLE DISTRIBUTIONS OF THE LICENSED WORK.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Distributor may choose to distribute the Licensed Work, or any
|
|
|
portion thereof, in Executable form (an "EXECUTABLE DISTRIBUTION")
|
|
|
to any third party, under the terms of Section 2 of this License,
|
|
|
provided the Executable Distribution is made available under and
|
|
|
accompanied by a copy of this License, AND provided at least ONE of
|
|
|
the following conditions is fulfilled:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a) The Executable Distribution must be accompanied by the
|
|
|
Source Code for the Licensed Work making up the Executable
|
|
|
Distribution, and the Source Code must be distributed on the
|
|
|
same media as the Executable Distribution or using an
|
|
|
Electronic Distribution Mechanism; or
|
|
|
|
|
|
(b) The Executable Distribution must be accompanied with a
|
|
|
written offer, valid for at least thirty six (36) months, to
|
|
|
give any third party under the terms of this License, for a
|
|
|
charge no more than the cost of physically performing source
|
|
|
distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the Source
|
|
|
Code for the Licensed Work making up the Executable
|
|
|
Distribution, to be available and distributed using an
|
|
|
Electronic Distribution Mechanism, and such Executable
|
|
|
Distribution must remain available in Source Code form to any
|
|
|
third party via the Electronic Distribution Mechanism (or any
|
|
|
replacement Electronic Distribution Mechanism the particular
|
|
|
Distributor may reasonably need to turn to as a substitute) for
|
|
|
said at least thirty six (36) months.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For greater certainty, the above-noted requirements apply to any
|
|
|
Licensed Work or portion thereof distributed to any third party in
|
|
|
Executable form, whether such distribution is made alone, in
|
|
|
combination with a Larger Work or Independent Modules, or in some
|
|
|
other combination.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.3. SOURCE CODE DISTRIBUTIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a Distributor makes the Licensed Work, or any portion thereof,
|
|
|
available to any Person in Source Code form, it must be made
|
|
|
available under this License and a copy of this License must be
|
|
|
included with each copy of the Source Code, situated so that the
|
|
|
copy of the License is conspicuously brought to the attention of
|
|
|
that Person. For greater clarification, this Section 3.3 applies to
|
|
|
all distribution of the Licensed Work in any Source Code form. A
|
|
|
Distributor may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a
|
|
|
copy, which charge shall be no more than the cost of physically
|
|
|
performing source distribution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.4. REQUIRED NOTICES IN SOURCE CODE.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each Subsequent Contributor must ensure that the notice set out in
|
|
|
Part 5 of Exhibit A is included in each file of the Source Code for
|
|
|
each Subsequent Work originating from that particular Subsequent
|
|
|
Contributor, if such notice is not already included in each such
|
|
|
file. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular
|
|
|
Source Code file due to its structure, then the Subsequent
|
|
|
Contributor must include such notice in a location (such as a
|
|
|
relevant directory in which the file is stored) where a user would
|
|
|
be likely to look for such a notice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.5. NO DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS FOR INTERNALLY USED
|
|
|
MODIFICATIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notwithstanding Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4, Recipient may,
|
|
|
internally within its own corporation or organization use the
|
|
|
Licensed Work, including the Initial Work and Subsequent Works, and
|
|
|
make Modifications for internal use within Recipient's own
|
|
|
corporation or organization (collectively, "INTERNAL USE
|
|
|
MODIFICATIONS"). The Recipient shall have no obligation to
|
|
|
distribute, in either Source Code or Executable form, any such
|
|
|
Internal Use Modifications made by Recipient in the course of such
|
|
|
internal use, except where required below in this Section 3.5. All
|
|
|
Internal Use Modifications distributed to any Person, whether or
|
|
|
not a Third Party, shall be distributed pursuant to and be
|
|
|
accompanied by the terms of this License. If the Recipient chooses
|
|
|
to distribute any such Internal Use Modifications to any Third
|
|
|
Party, then the Recipient shall be deemed a Subsequent Contributor,
|
|
|
and any such Internal Use Modifications distributed to any Third
|
|
|
Party shall be deemed a Subsequent Work originating from that
|
|
|
Subsequent Contributor, and shall from the first such instance
|
|
|
become part of the Licensed Work that must thereafter be
|
|
|
distributed and made available to third parties in accordance with
|
|
|
the terms of Sections 3.1 to 3.4 inclusive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.6. INDEPENDENT MODULES.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This License shall not apply to Independent Modules of any Initial
|
|
|
Contributor, Subsequent Contributor, Distributor or any Recipient,
|
|
|
and such Independent Modules may be licensed or made available
|
|
|
under one or more separate license agreements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.7. LARGER WORKS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any Distributor or Recipient may create or contribute to a Larger
|
|
|
Work by combining any of the Licensed Work with other code not
|
|
|
governed by the terms of this License, and may distribute the
|
|
|
Larger Work as one or more products. However, in any such case,
|
|
|
Distributor or Recipient (as the case may be) must make sure that
|
|
|
the requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Licensed
|
|
|
Work portion of the Larger Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.8. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRIBUTED MODIFICATIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a) Each Subsequent Contributor (including the Initial
|
|
|
Contributor where the Initial Contributor also qualifies as a
|
|
|
Subsequent Contributor) must cause each Subsequent Work created
|
|
|
or contributed to by that Subsequent Contributor to contain a
|
|
|
file documenting the changes, in accordance with the
|
|
|
requirements of Part 1 of the Supplement File, that such
|
|
|
Subsequent Contributor made in the creation or contribution to
|
|
|
that Subsequent Work. If no Supplement File exists or no
|
|
|
requirements are set out in Part 1 of the Supplement File, then
|
|
|
there are no requirements for Subsequent Contributors to
|
|
|
document changes that they make resulting in Subsequent Works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(b) The Initial Contributor may at any time introduce
|
|
|
requirements or add to or change earlier requirements (in each
|
|
|
case, the "EARLIER DESCRIPTION REQUIREMENTS") for documenting
|
|
|
changes resulting in Subsequent Works by revising Part 1 of
|
|
|
each copy of the Supplement File distributed by the Initial
|
|
|
Contributor with future copies of the Licensed Work so that
|
|
|
Part 1 then contains new requirements (the "NEW DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
REQUIREMENTS") for documenting such changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(c) Any Recipient receiving at any time any copy of an Initial
|
|
|
Work or any Subsequent Work under a copy of this License (in
|
|
|
each case, an "Earlier LICENSED COPY") having the Earlier
|
|
|
Description Requirements may choose, with respect to each such
|
|
|
Earlier Licensed Copy, to comply with the Earlier Description
|
|
|
Requirements or the New Description Requirements. Where a
|
|
|
Recipient chooses to comply with the New Description
|
|
|
Requirements, that Recipient will, when thereafter distributing
|
|
|
any copies of any such Earlier Licensed Copy, include a
|
|
|
Supplement File having a section entitled Part 1 that contains
|
|
|
a copy of the New Description Requirements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(d) For greater certainty, the intent of Part 1 of the
|
|
|
Supplement File is to provide a mechanism (if any) by which
|
|
|
Subsequent Contributors must document changes that they make to
|
|
|
the Licensed Work resulting in Subsequent Works. Part 1 of any
|
|
|
Supplement File shall not be used to increase or reduce the
|
|
|
scope of the license granted in Article 2 of this License or in
|
|
|
any other way increase or decrease the rights and obligations
|
|
|
of any Recipient, and shall at no time serve as the basis for
|
|
|
terminating the License. Further, a Recipient can be required
|
|
|
to correct and change its documentation procedures to comply
|
|
|
with Part 1 of the Supplement File, but cannot be penalised
|
|
|
with damages. Part 1 of any Supplement File is only binding on
|
|
|
each Recipient of any Licensed Work to the extent Part 1 sets
|
|
|
out the requirements for documenting changes to the Initial
|
|
|
Work or any Subsequent Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(e) An example of a set of requirements for documenting changes
|
|
|
and contributions made by Subsequent Contributor is set out in
|
|
|
Part 7 of Exhibit A of this License. Part 7 is a sample only
|
|
|
and is not binding on Recipients, unless (subject to the
|
|
|
earlier paragraphs of this Section 3.8) those are the
|
|
|
requirements that the Initial Contributor includes in Part 1 of
|
|
|
the Supplement File with the copies of the Initial Work
|
|
|
distributed under this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.9. USE OF DISTRIBUTOR NAME.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The name of a Distributor may not be used by any other Distributor
|
|
|
to endorse or promote the Licensed Work or products derived from
|
|
|
the Licensed Work, without prior written permission.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.10. LIMITED RECOGNITION OF INITIAL CONTRIBUTOR.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a) As a modest attribution to the Initial Contributor, in the
|
|
|
hope that its promotional value may help justify the time,
|
|
|
money and effort invested in writing the Initial Work, the
|
|
|
Initial Contributor may include in Part 2 of the Supplement
|
|
|
File a requirement that each time an executable program
|
|
|
resulting from the Initial Work or any Subsequent Work, or a
|
|
|
program dependent thereon, is launched or run, a prominent
|
|
|
display of the Initial Contributor's attribution information
|
|
|
must occur (the "ATTRIBUTION INFORMATION"). The Attribution
|
|
|
Information must be included at the beginning of each Source
|
|
|
Code file. For greater certainty, the Initial Contributor may
|
|
|
specify in the Supplement File that the above attribution
|
|
|
requirement only applies to an executable program resulting
|
|
|
from the Initial Work or any Subsequent Work, but not a program
|
|
|
dependent thereon. The intent is to provide for reasonably
|
|
|
modest attribution, therefore the Initial Contributor may not
|
|
|
require Recipients to display, at any time, more than the
|
|
|
following Attribution Information: (a) a copyright notice
|
|
|
including the name of the Initial Contributor; (b) a word or
|
|
|
one phrase (not exceeding 10 words); (c) one digital image or
|
|
|
graphic provided with the Initial Work; and (d) a URL
|
|
|
(collectively, the "ATTRIBUTION LIMITS").
|
|
|
|
|
|
(b) If no Supplement File exists, or no Attribution Information
|
|
|
is set out in Part 2 of the Supplement File, then there are no
|
|
|
requirements for Recipients to display any Attribution
|
|
|
Information of the Initial Contributor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(c) Each Recipient acknowledges that all trademarks, service
|
|
|
marks and/or trade names contained within Part 2 of the
|
|
|
Supplement File distributed with the Licensed Work are the
|
|
|
exclusive property of the Initial Contributor and may only be
|
|
|
used with the permission of the Initial Contributor, or under
|
|
|
circumstances otherwise permitted by law, or as expressly set
|
|
|
out in this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.11. For greater certainty, any description or attribution
|
|
|
provisions contained within a Supplement File may only be used to
|
|
|
specify the nature of the description or attribution requirements,
|
|
|
as the case may be. Any provision in a Supplement File that
|
|
|
otherwise purports to modify, vary, nullify or amend any right,
|
|
|
obligation or representation contained herein shall be deemed void
|
|
|
to that extent, and shall be of no force or effect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. COMMERCIAL USE AND INDEMNITY.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4.1. COMMERCIAL SERVICES.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Recipient ("COMMERCIAL RECIPIENT") may choose to offer, and to
|
|
|
charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
|
|
|
obligations (collectively, "SERVICES") to one or more other
|
|
|
Recipients or Distributors. However, such Commercial Recipient may
|
|
|
do so only on that Commercial Recipient's own behalf, and not on
|
|
|
behalf of any other Distributor or Recipient, and Commercial
|
|
|
Recipient must make it clear than any such warranty, support,
|
|
|
indemnity or liability obligation(s) is/are offered by Commercial
|
|
|
Recipient alone. At no time may Commercial Recipient use any
|
|
|
Services to deny any party the Licensed Work in Source Code or
|
|
|
Executable form when so required under any of the other terms of
|
|
|
this License. For greater certainty, this Section 4.1 does not
|
|
|
diminish any of the other terms of this License, including without
|
|
|
limitation the obligation of the Commercial Recipient as a
|
|
|
Distributor, when distributing any of the Licensed Work in Source
|
|
|
Code or Executable form, to make such distribution royalty-free
|
|
|
(subject to the right to charge a fee of no more than the cost of
|
|
|
physically performing Source Code or Executable distribution (as
|
|
|
the case may be)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
4.2. INDEMNITY.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commercial distributors of software may accept certain
|
|
|
responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and
|
|
|
the like. While this License is intended to facilitate the
|
|
|
commercial use of the Licensed Work, the Distributor who includes
|
|
|
any of the Licensed Work in a commercial product offering should do
|
|
|
so in a manner which does not create potential liability for other
|
|
|
Distributors. Therefore, if a Distributor includes the Licensed
|
|
|
Work in a commercial product offering or offers any Services, such
|
|
|
Distributor ("COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTOR") hereby agrees to defend and
|
|
|
indemnify every other Distributor or Subsequent Contributor (in
|
|
|
each case an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") against any losses, damages and
|
|
|
costs (collectively "LOSSES") arising from claims, lawsuits and
|
|
|
other legal actions brought by a third party against the
|
|
|
Indemnified Party to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of
|
|
|
such Commercial Distributor in connection with its distribution of
|
|
|
any of the Licensed Work in a commercial product offering or in
|
|
|
connection with any Services. The obligations in this section do
|
|
|
not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual or alleged
|
|
|
intellectual property infringement. In order to qualify, an
|
|
|
Indemnified Party must: (a) promptly notify the Commercial
|
|
|
Distributor in writing of such claim; and (b) allow the Commercial
|
|
|
Distributor to control, and co-operate with the Commercial
|
|
|
Distributor in, the defense and any related settlement
|
|
|
negotiations. The Indemnified Party may participate in any such
|
|
|
claim at its own expense.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. VERSIONS OF THE LICENSE.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.1. NEW VERSIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Initial Contributor may publish revised and/or new versions of
|
|
|
the License from time to time. Each version will be given a
|
|
|
distinguishing version number.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.2. EFFECT OF NEW VERSIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the Licensed Work or any portion thereof has been published by
|
|
|
Initial Contributor under a particular version of the License,
|
|
|
Recipient may choose to continue to use it under the terms of that
|
|
|
version. However, if a Recipient chooses to use the Licensed Work
|
|
|
under the terms of any subsequent version of the License published
|
|
|
by the Initial Contributor, then from the date of making this
|
|
|
choice, the Recipient must comply with the terms of that subsequent
|
|
|
version with respect to all further reproduction, preparation of
|
|
|
derivative works, public display of, public performance of,
|
|
|
distribution and sublicensing by the Recipient in connection with
|
|
|
the Licensed Work. No one other than the Initial Contributor has
|
|
|
the right to modify the terms applicable to the Licensed Work
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.

|
|
|
CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUMES THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
|
|
|
CORRECTION. THIS CLAUSE CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS
|
|
|
LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY LICENSED WORK IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT
|

|
6.2. RESPONSIBILITY OF RECIPIENTS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each Recipient is solely responsible for determining the
|
|
|
appropriateness of using and distributing the Licensed Work and
|
|
|

|
|
|
License, including but not limited to the risks and costs of

|
|
|

|
|
|
hereunder to a particular Recipient, will terminate automatically
|
|
|
if such Recipient is in material breach of any of the terms of this
|
|
|
License and fails to cure such breach within sixty (60) days of
|
|
|
becoming aware of the breach. Without limiting the foregoing, any
|
|
|
material breach by such Recipient of any term of any other License
|
|
|
under which such Recipient is granted any rights to the Licensed
|
|
|
Work shall constitute a material breach of this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7.4. Upon termination of this License by or with respect to a
|
|
|
particular Recipient for any reason, all rights granted hereunder

However, all sublicenses to the Licensed Work which were previously
|
|
|
properly granted by such Recipient under a copy of this License (in
|
|
|
each case, an "Other License" and in plural, "Other Licenses")
|
|
|
shall survive any such termination of this License, including
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
(i.e. other Recipients) remain in compliance with the terms of the
|
|
|
copy of this License under which such sublicensees received rights
|
|
|
to the Licensed Work. Any termination of such Other Licenses shall
|
|
|
be pursuant to their respective Section 7, mutatis mutandis.
|
|
|
Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the
|
|
|
termination of this License shall survive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7.5. Upon any termination of this License by or with respect to a
|
|
|
particular Recipient, Sections 4.1, 4.2, 6.1, 6.2, 7.4, 7.5, 8.1,
|
|
|
and 8.2, together with all provisions of this License necessary for
|
|
|
the interpretation and enforcement of same, shall expressly survive
|
|
|
such termination.

9.1. This License shall be governed by and construed in accordance
|
|
|
with the laws of the Governing Jurisdiction assigned in Part 3 of
|
|
|
Exhibit A, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. No
|
|
|
party may bring a legal action under this License more than one
|
|
|
year after the cause of the action arose. Each party waives its
|
|
|
rights (if any) to a jury trial in any litigation arising under
|
|
|
this License. Note that if the Governing Jurisdiction is not
|
|
|
assigned in Part 3 of Exhibit A, then the Governing Jurisdiction
|
|
|
shall be the State of New York.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9.2. The courts of the Governing Jurisdiction shall have
|
|
|
jurisdiction, but not exclusive jurisdiction, to entertain and
|
|
|
determine all disputes and claims, whether for specific
|
|
|
performance, injunction, damages or otherwise, both at law and in
|
|
|
equity, arising out of or in any way relating to this License,
|
|
|
including without limitation, the legality, validity, existence and
|
|
|
enforceability of this License. Each party to this License hereby
|
|
|
irrevocably attorns to and accepts the jurisdiction of the courts
|
|
|
of the Governing Jurisdiction for such purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9.3. Except as expressly set forth elsewhere herein, in the event
|
|
|
of any action or proceeding brought by any party against another
|
|
|
under this License the prevailing party shall be entitled to
|
|
|
recover all costs and expenses including the fees of its attorneys
|
|
|
in such action or proceeding in such amount as the court may
|
|
|
adjudge reasonable.

|
10. MISCELLANEOUS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.1. The obligations imposed by this License are for the benefit
|
|

of the Initial Contributor and any Recipient, and each Recipient
|
|
|
acknowledges and agrees that the Initial Contributor and/or any
|
|
|
other Recipient may enforce the terms and conditions of this
|
|
|
License against any Recipient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.2. This License represents the complete agreement concerning
|
|
|
subject matter hereof, and supersedes and cancels all previous oral
|
|
|
and written communications, representations, agreements and
|
|
|
understandings between the parties with respect to the subject
|
|
|
matter hereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.3. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts
|
|
|
for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.4. The language in all parts of this License shall be in all
|
|
|
cases construed simply according to its fair meaning, and not
|
|
|
strictly for or against any of the parties hereto. Any law or
|
|
|
regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall be
|
|
|
construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.5. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable
|
|
|
under the laws of the Governing Jurisdiction, it shall not affect
|
|
|
the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of
|
|
|
this License, and without further action by the parties hereto,
|
|
|
such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to
|
|
|
make such provision valid and enforceable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.6. The paragraph headings of this License are for reference and
|
|
|
convenience only and are not a part of this License, and they shall
|
|
|
have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part
|
|
|
hereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.7. Each of the terms "including", "include" and "includes", when
|
|
|
used in this License, is not limiting whether or not non-limiting
|
|
|
language (such as "without limitation" or "but not limited to" or
|
|
|
words of similar import) is used with reference thereto.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.8. The parties hereto acknowledge they have expressly required
|
|

that this License and notices relating thereto be drafted in the
|

|
counterclaim in a lawsuit, and whether or not any of the patent
|
|
|
claims are directed to a system, method, process, apparatus,
|
|
|
device, product, article of manufacture or any other form of
|
|
|
patent claim), then any patent or copyright license granted by
|
|
|
that User to such Recipient under this License or any other
|
|
|
copy of this License shall terminate. The termination shall be
|
|
|
effective ninety (90) days after notice of termination from
|
|
|
User to Recipient, unless the Recipient withdraws the patent
|
|
|
litigation claim before the end of the ninety (90) day period.
|
|
|
To be effective, any such notice of license termination must
|
|
|
include a specific list of applicable patents and/or a copy of
|
|
|
the copyrighted work of User that User alleges will be
|
|
|
infringed by Recipient upon License termination. License
|
|

termination is only effective with respect to patents and/or
|
|
|
copyrights for which proper notice has been given.
