|
17 |
|
|
|
18 |
|

|
20 |
|
Original Work; |
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
|
c) to distribute or communicate copies of the Original Work and Derivative |
|
23 |

|
24 |
|
Derivative Works that You distribute or communicate shall be licensed under |
|
25 |
|
this Open Software License; |
|
26 |
|

|
|
|
31 |
|
2) Grant of Patent License. Licensor grants You a worldwide, royalty- free, |
|
32 |
|
non-exclusive, sublicensable license, under patent claims owned or controlled |
|
33 |
|

|
35 |
|

|

|
38 |
|
form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and all available |
|
39 |
|

|
40 |
|
provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Original Work along |
|
41 |
|
with each copy of the Original Work that Licensor distributes. Licensor |
|
42 |
|
reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing a machine-readable |
|
43 |
|
copy of the Source Code in an information repository reasonably calculated to |
|
44 |
|
permit inexpensive and convenient access by You for as long as Licensor |
|
45 |
|
continues to distribute the Original Work. |

|
49 |
|
service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this |
|
50 |
|
Original Work without express prior permission of the Licensor. Except as |
|
51 |
|
expressly stated herein, nothing in this License grants any license to |
|
52 |
|
Licensor's trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other |
|
53 |
|
intellectual property. No patent license is granted to make, use, sell, offer |
|
54 |
|
for sale, have made, or import embodiments of any patent claims other than the |
|
55 |
|
licensed claims defined in Section 2. No license is granted to the trademarks |
|
56 |
|
of Licensor even if such marks are included in the Original Work. Nothing in |
|
57 |
|
this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under |
|
58 |
|
terms different from this License any Original Work that Licensor otherwise |
|
59 |
|
would have a right to license. |
|
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
|
5) External Deployment. The term "External Deployment" means the use, |
|
62 |
|
distribution, or communication of the Original Work or Derivative Works in any |
|
63 |
|
way such that the Original Work or Derivative Works may be used by anyone |
|
64 |
|
other than You, whether those works are distributed or communicated to those |
|
65 |
|
persons or made available as an application intended for use over a network. |
|
66 |
|
As an express condition for the grants of license hereunder, You must treat |
|
67 |
|
any External Deployment by You of the Original Work or a Derivative Work as a |
|
68 |
|
distribution under section 1(c). |
|
69 |
|
|
|
70 |
|
6) Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any Derivative |
|
71 |
|
Works that You create, all copyright, patent, or trademark notices from the |
|
72 |
|
Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices of licensing and any |
|
73 |
|
descriptive text identified therein as an "Attribution Notice." You must cause |
|
74 |
|
the Source Code for any Derivative Works that You create to carry a prominent |
|
75 |
|
Attribution Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that You have |
|
76 |
|
modified the Original Work. |
|
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
|
7) Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that |
|
79 |
|
the copyright in and to the Original Work and the patent rights granted herein |
|
80 |
|
by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are sublicensed to You under the |
|
81 |
|
terms of this License with the permission of the contributor(s) of those |
|
82 |
|
copyrights and patent rights. Except as expressly stated in the immediately |
|
83 |
|
preceding sentence, the Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS |
|
84 |
|
IS" BASIS and WITHOUT WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without |
|
85 |
|
limitation, the warranties of non-infringement, merchantability or fitness for |
|
86 |
|
a particular purpose. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL WORK |
|
87 |
|
IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part of this |
|
88 |
|
License. No license to the Original Work is granted by this License except |
|
89 |
|
under this disclaimer. |
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
|
8) Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, |
|
92 |
|
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall the |
|
93 |
|
Licensor be liable to anyone for any indirect, special, incidental, or |
|
94 |
|
consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this License or |
|
95 |
|
the use of the Original Work including, without limitation, damages for loss |
|
96 |
|
of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all |
|
97 |
|
other commercial damages or losses. This limitation of liability shall not |
|
98 |
|
apply to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation. |
|
99 |
|
|
|
100 |
|
9) Acceptance and Termination. If, at any time, You expressly assented to this |
|
101 |
|
License, that assent indicates your clear and irrevocable acceptance of this |
|
102 |
|
License and all of its terms and conditions. If You distribute or communicate |
|
103 |
|
copies of the Original Work or a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable |
|
104 |
|
effort under the circumstances to obtain the express assent of recipients to |
|
105 |
|
the terms of this License. This License conditions your rights to undertake |
|
106 |
|
the activities listed in Section 1, including your right to create Derivative |
|
107 |
|
Works based upon the Original Work, and doing so without honoring these terms |
|
108 |
|
and conditions is prohibited by copyright law and international treaty. |
|
109 |
|
Nothing in this License is intended to affect copyright exceptions and |
|
110 |
|
limitations (including "fair use" or "fair dealing"). This License shall |
|
111 |
|
terminate immediately and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted |
|
112 |
|
to You by this License upon your failure to honor the conditions in Section |
|
113 |
|
1(c). |
|
114 |
|
|
|
115 |
|
10) Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate automatically |
|
116 |
|
and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You by this |
|
117 |
|
License as of the date You commence an action, including a cross-claim or |
|
118 |
|
counterclaim, against Licensor or any licensee alleging that the Original Work |
|
119 |
|
infringes a patent. This termination provision shall not apply for an action |
|
120 |
|
alleging patent infringement by combinations of the Original Work with other |
|
121 |
|
software or hardware. |
|
122 |
|
|
|
123 |
|
11) Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating to this |
|
124 |
|
License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein the |
|
125 |
|
Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under |
|
126 |
|
the laws of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The |
|
127 |
|
application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the |
|
128 |
|
International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the Original |
|
129 |
|
Work outside the scope of this License or after its termination shall be |
|
130 |
|
subject to the requirements and penalties of copyright or patent law in the |
|
131 |
|
appropriate jurisdiction. This section shall survive the termination of this |
|
132 |
|
License. |
|
133 |
|
|
|
134 |
|
12) Attorneys' Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License or |
|
135 |
|
seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to |
|
136 |
|
recover its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable |
|
137 |
|
attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, including |
|
138 |
|
any appeal of such action. This section shall survive the termination of this |
|
139 |
|
License. |
|
140 |
|
|
|
141 |
|
13) Miscellaneous. If any provision of this License is held to be |
|
142 |
|
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary |
|
143 |
|
to make it enforceable. |
|
144 |
