129 This License does not grant any rights in the trademarks, service marks,

131 the notice requirements in Section 3.4).
132
133 2.4. Subsequent Licenses
134

136 distribute the Covered Software under a subsequent version of this

154 Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 are conditions of the licenses granted

156
157 3. Responsibilities
158 -------------------
159
160 3.1. Distribution of Source Form
161
162 All distribution of Covered Software in Source Code Form, including any
163 Modifications that You create or to which You contribute, must be under
164 the terms of this License. You must inform recipients that the Source
165 Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this
166 License, and how they can obtain a copy of this License. You may not
167 attempt to alter or restrict the recipients' rights in the Source Code
168 Form.
169
170 3.2. Distribution of Executable Form
171
172 If You distribute Covered Software in Executable Form then:
173
174 (a) such Covered Software must also be made available in Source Code
175 Form, as described in Section 3.1, and You must inform recipients of
176 the Executable Form how they can obtain a copy of such Source Code
177 Form by reasonable means in a timely manner, at a charge no more
178 than the cost of distribution to the recipient; and
179
180 (b) You may distribute such Executable Form under the terms of this
181 License, or sublicense it under different terms, provided that the
182 license for the Executable Form does not attempt to limit or alter
183 the recipients' rights in the Source Code Form under this License.
184
185 3.3. Distribution of a Larger Work
186
187 You may create and distribute a Larger Work under terms of Your choice,
188 provided that You also comply with the requirements of this License for
189 the Covered Software. If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered
190 Software with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the
191 Covered Software is not Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this
192 License permits You to additionally distribute such Covered Software
193 under the terms of such Secondary License(s), so that the recipient of
194 the Larger Work may, at their option, further distribute the Covered
195 Software under the terms of either this License or such Secondary
196 License(s).
197
198 3.4. Notices
199
200 You may not remove or alter the substance of any license notices
201 (including copyright notices, patent notices, disclaimers of warranty,
202 or limitations of liability) contained within the Source Code Form of
203 the Covered Software, except that You may alter any license notices to
204 the extent required to remedy known factual inaccuracies.
205
206 3.5. Application of Additional Terms
207
208 You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support,
209 indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered
210 Software. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on
211 behalf of any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that any
212 such warranty, support, indemnity, or liability obligation is offered by
213 You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify every Contributor for any
214 liability incurred by such Contributor as a result of warranty, support,
215 indemnity or liability terms You offer. You may include additional
216 disclaimers of warranty and limitations of liability specific to any
217 jurisdiction.
218
219 4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation
220 ---------------------------------------------------
221
222 If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
223 License with respect to some or all of the Covered Software due to
224 statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
225 the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
226 describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description must
227 be placed in a text file included with all distributions of the Covered
228 Software under this License. Except to the extent prohibited by statute
229 or regulation, such description must be sufficiently detailed for a
230 recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it.
231
232 5. Termination
233 --------------
234
235 5.1. The rights granted under this License will terminate automatically
236 if You fail to comply with any of its terms. However, if You become
237 compliant, then the rights granted under this License from a particular
238 Contributor are reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until such
239 Contributor explicitly and finally terminates Your grants, and (b) on an
240 ongoing basis, if such Contributor fails to notify You of the
241 non-compliance by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after You have
242 come back into compliance. Moreover, Your grants from a particular
243 Contributor are reinstated on an ongoing basis if such Contributor
244 notifies You of the non-compliance by some reasonable means, this is the
245 first time You have received notice of non-compliance with this License
246 from such Contributor, and You become compliant prior to 30 days after
247 Your receipt of the notice.
248
249 5.2. If You initiate litigation against any entity by asserting a patent
250 infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions,
251 counter-claims, and cross-claims) alleging that a Contributor Version
252 directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then the rights granted to
253 You by any and all Contributors for the Covered Software under Section
254 2.1 of this License shall terminate.
255
256 5.3. In the event of termination under Sections 5.1 or 5.2 above, all
257 end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which
258 have been validly granted by You or Your distributors under this License
259 prior to termination shall survive termination.

266 * Covered Software is provided under this License on an "as is" *
267 * basis, without warranty of any kind, either expressed, implied, or *
268 * statutory, including, without limitation, warranties that the *
269 * Covered Software is free of defects, merchantable, fit for a *
270 * particular purpose or non-infringing. The entire risk as to the *
271 * quality and performance of the Covered Software is with You. *
272 * Should any Covered Software prove defective in any respect, You *
273 * (not any Contributor) assume the cost of any necessary servicing, *
274 * repair, or correction. This disclaimer of warranty constitutes an *
275 * essential part of this License. No use of any Covered Software is *
276 * authorized under this License except under this disclaimer. *

282 * 7. Limitation of Liability *
283 * -------------------------- *
284 * *
285 * Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether tort *
286 * (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall any *
287 * Contributor, or anyone who distributes Covered Software as *
288 * permitted above, be liable to You for any direct, indirect, *
289 * special, incidental, or consequential damages of any character *
290 * including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, loss of *
291 * goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any *
292 * and all other commercial damages or losses, even if such party *
293 * shall have been informed of the possibility of such damages. This *
294 * limitation of liability shall not apply to liability for death or *
295 * personal injury resulting from such party's negligence to the *
296 * extent applicable law prohibits such limitation. Some *
297 * jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of *
298 * incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion and *
299 * limitation may not apply to You. *

303 8. Litigation
304 -------------
305
306 Any litigation relating to this License may be brought only in the

311 cross-claims or counter-claims.
312
313 9. Miscellaneous
314 ----------------
315
316 This License represents the complete agreement concerning the subject
317 matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
318 unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
319 necessary to make it enforceable. Any law or regulation which provides
320 that the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter
321 shall not be used to construe this License against a Contributor.
322

345 any references to the name of the license steward (except to note that
346 such modified license differs from this License).
