3. REQUIREMENTS
-A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form under its

+ a) the Program must also be made available as Source Code, in
+ accordance with section 3.2, and the Contributor must accompany
+ the Program with a statement that the Source Code for the Program

+
+3.3 Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright, patent,
+trademark, attribution notices, disclaimers of warranty, or limitations

4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
-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 Program, the Contributor who
-includes the Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner
-which does not create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if
-a Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering, such
-Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify
-every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages
-and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal
-actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to the
-extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in
-connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product
-offering. 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 Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial
-Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to
-control, and cooperate with the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any
-related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in
-any such claim at its own expense.

-For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product
-offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial Contributor. If that
-Commercial Contributor then makes performance claims, or offers warranties
-related to Product X, those performance claims and warranties are such
-Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the
-Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims against the other
-Contributors related to those performance claims and warranties, and if a court
-requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial
-Contributor must pay those damages.
