<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS
PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS ECLIPSE PUBLIC LICENSE
(&quot;AGREEMENT&quot;). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF
THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.</span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>1. DEFINITIONS</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>&quot;Contribution&quot;
means:</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>a) in the case of the initial
Contributor, the initial code and documentation distributed under
this Agreement, and<br clear=left> b) in the case of each
subsequent Contributor:
</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>i) changes to the Program, and</span>
</p>

<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>ii) additions to the Program;</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>where such changes and/or
additions to the Program originate from and are distributed by that
particular Contributor. A Contribution 'originates' from a
Contributor if it was added to the Program by such Contributor
itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf. Contributions
do not include additions to the Program which: (i) are separate
modules of software distributed in conjunction with the Program
under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works
of the Program. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>&quot;Contributor&quot; means
any person or entity that distributes the Program.</span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>&quot;Licensed Patents &quot;
mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which are necessarily
infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution alone or when
combined with the Program. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>&quot;Program&quot; means the
Contributions distributed in accordance with this Agreement.</span>
</p>

anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement, including all
Contributors.</span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>2. GRANT OF RIGHTS</span></b>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>a) Subject to the terms of
this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to<span
style='color: red'> </span>reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
publicly display, publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the
Contribution of such Contributor, if any, and such derivative works,
in source code and object code form.
</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>b) Subject to the terms of
this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a
non-exclusive, worldwide,<span style='color: green'> </span>royalty-free
patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to
sell, import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such
Contributor, if any, in source code and object code form. This
patent license shall apply to the combination of the Contribution
and the Program if, at the time the Contribution is added by the
Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such
combination to be covered by the Licensed Patents. The patent
license shall not apply to any other combinations which include the
Contribution. No hardware per se is licensed hereunder.
</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>c) Recipient understands that
although each Contributor grants the licenses to its Contributions
set forth herein, no assurances are provided by any Contributor that
the Program does not infringe the patent or other intellectual
property rights of any other entity. Each Contributor disclaims any
liability to Recipient for claims brought by any other entity based
on infringement of intellectual property rights or otherwise. 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, if a
third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to
distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire
that license before distributing the Program.</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>d) Each Contributor represents
that to its knowledge it has sufficient copyright rights in its
Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright license set forth in
this Agreement. </span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>3. REQUIREMENTS</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>A Contributor may choose to
distribute the Program in object code form under its own license
agreement, provided that:</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>a) it complies with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement; and</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>b) its license agreement:</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>i) effectively disclaims on
behalf of all Contributors all warranties and conditions, express
and implied, including warranties or conditions of title and
non-infringement, and implied warranties or conditions of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose; </span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>ii) effectively excludes on
behalf of all Contributors all liability for damages, including
direct, indirect, special, incidental and consequential damages,
such as lost profits; </span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>iii) states that any
provisions which differ from this Agreement are offered by that
Contributor alone and not by any other party; and</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>iv) states that source code
for the Program is available from such Contributor, and informs
licensees how to obtain it in a reasonable manner on or through a
medium customarily used for software exchange.<span
style='color: blue'> </span>
</span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>When the Program is made
available in source code form:</span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>a) it must be made available
under this Agreement; and </span>
</p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left: .5in'>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>b) a copy of this Agreement
must be included with each copy of the Program. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>Contributors may not remove or
alter any copyright notices contained within the Program. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>Each Contributor must identify
itself as the originator of its Contribution, if any, in a manner
that reasonably allows subsequent Recipients to identify the
originator of the Contribution. </span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>4. COMMERCIAL
DISTRIBUTION</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>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 (&quot;Commercial Contributor&quot;) hereby agrees to
defend and indemnify every other Contributor (&quot;Indemnified
Contributor&quot;) against any losses, damages and costs
(collectively &quot;Losses&quot;) 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.</span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>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.</span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>5. NO WARRANTY</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH
IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED ON AN &quot;AS IS&quot;
BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR
CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely responsible for
determining the appropriateness of using and distributing the
Program and assumes all risks associated with its exercise of rights
under this Agreement , including but not limited to the risks and
costs of program errors, compliance with applicable laws, damage to
or loss of data, programs or equipment, and unavailability or
interruption of operations. </span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>6. DISCLAIMER OF
LIABILITY</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH
IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE
ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY,
WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE
OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION OF
THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.</span>
</p>
<p>
<b><span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>7. GENERAL</span></b>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>If any provision of this
Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the
terms of this Agreement, 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.</span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>If Recipient institutes patent
litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or
counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program itself
(excluding combinations of the Program with other software or
hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such
Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of
the date such litigation is filed. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>All Recipient's rights under
this Agreement shall terminate if it fails to comply with any of the
material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not cure
such failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of
such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights under this Agreement
terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and distribution of the
Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, Recipient's
obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by
Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and survive. </span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>Everyone is permitted to copy
and distribute copies of this Agreement, but in order to avoid
inconsistency the Agreement is copyrighted and may only be modified
in the following manner. The Agreement Steward reserves the right to
publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from
time to time. No one other than the Agreement Steward has the right
to modify this Agreement. The Eclipse Foundation is the initial
Agreement Steward. The Eclipse Foundation may assign the
responsibility to serve as the Agreement Steward to a suitable
separate entity. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a
distinguishing version number. The Program (including Contributions)
may always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement
under which it was received. In addition, after a new version of the
Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to distribute the
Program (including its Contributions) under the new version. Except
as expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, Recipient
receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any
Contributor under this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication,
estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not expressly
granted under this Agreement are reserved.</span>
</p>
<p>
<span style='font-size: 10.0pt'>This Agreement is governed by
the laws of the State of New York and the intellectual property laws
of the United States of America. No party to this Agreement will
bring a legal action under this Agreement more than one year after
the cause of action arose. Each party waives its rights to a jury
trial in any resulting litigation.</span>
