                        Patent Claims infringed by Covered Software in the
                        absence of Modifications made by that Contributor.
       3. Distribution Obligations.
             3.1. Availability of Source Code.
                   Any Covered Software that You distribute or otherwise make
                   available in Executable form must also be made available in
                   Source Code form and that Source Code form must be
                   distributed only under the terms of this License. You must
                   include a copy of this License with every copy of the
                   Source Code form of the Covered Software You distribute or
                   otherwise make available. You must inform recipients of any
                   such Covered Software in Executable form as to how they can
                   obtain such Covered Software in Source Code form in a
                   reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used
                   for software exchange.
             3.2. Modifications.
                   The Modifications that You create or to which You
                   contribute are governed by the terms of this License. You
                   represent that You believe Your Modifications are Your
                   original creation(s) and/or You have sufficient rights to
                   grant the rights conveyed by this License.
             3.3. Required Notices.
                   You must include a notice in each of Your Modifications
                   that identifies You as the Contributor of the Modification.
                   You may not remove or alter any copyright, patent or
                   trademark notices contained within the Covered Software, or
                   any notices of licensing or any descriptive text giving
                   attribution to any Contributor or the Initial Developer.
            3.4. Application of Additional Terms.
                   You may not offer or impose any terms on any Covered
                   Software in Source Code form that alters or restricts the
                   applicable version of this License or the recipients?
                   rights hereunder. You may choose to offer, and to charge a
                   fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
                   obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Software.
                   However, you may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on
                   behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You
                   must make it absolutely clear that any such warranty,
                   support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by
                   You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
                   Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred
                   by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of
                   warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.
          
            3.5. Distribution of Executable Versions.
                   You may distribute the Executable form of the Covered
                   Software under the terms of this License or under the terms
                   of a license of Your choice, which may contain terms
                   different from this License, provided that You are in
                   compliance with the terms of this License and that the
                   license for the Executable form does not attempt to limit
                   or alter the recipient?s rights in the Source Code form
                   from the rights set forth in this License. If You
                   distribute the Covered Software in Executable form under a
                   different license, You must make it absolutely clear that
                   any terms which differ from this License are offered by You
                   alone, not by the Initial Developer or Contributor. You
                   hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every
                   Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial
                   Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms
                   You offer.
             3.6. Larger Works.
                   You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Software
                   with other code not governed by the terms of this License
                   and distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such
                   a case, You must make sure the requirements of this License
                   are fulfilled for the Covered Software.
           
      4. Versions of the License.
             4.1. New Versions.
                   Sun Microsystems, Inc. is the initial license steward and
                   may publish revised and/or new versions of this License
                   from time to time. Each version will be given a
                   distinguishing version number. Except as provided in
                   Section 4.3, no one other than the license steward has the
                   right to modify this License.
            4.2. Effect of New Versions.
                   You may always continue to use, distribute or otherwise
                   make the Covered Software available under the terms of the
                   version of the License under which You originally received
                   the Covered Software. If the Initial Developer includes a
                   notice in the Original Software prohibiting it from being
                   distributed or otherwise made available under any
                   subsequent version of the License, You must distribute and
                   make the Covered Software available under the terms of the
                   version of the License under which You originally received
                   the Covered Software. Otherwise, You may also choose to
                   use, distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software
                   available under the terms of any subsequent version of the
                   License published by the license steward.
             4.3. Modified Versions.
                   When You are an Initial Developer and You want to create a
                   new license for Your Original Software, You may create and
                   use a modified version of this License if You: (a) rename
                   the license and remove any references to the name of the
                   license steward (except to note that the license differs
                   from this License); and (b) otherwise make it clear that
                   the license contains terms which differ from this License.
             
      5. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
          COVERED SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN ?AS IS?
          BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
          INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED
          SOFTWARE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR
          PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
          PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED SOFTWARE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY
          COVERED SOFTWARE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE
          INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF
          ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF
          WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF
          ANY COVERED SOFTWARE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS
          DISCLAIMER.
 
      6. TERMINATION.
            6.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will
                   terminate automatically if You fail to comply with terms
                   herein and fail to cure such breach within 30 days of
                   becoming aware of the breach. Provisions which, by their
                   nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of
                   this License shall survive.
            6.2. If You assert a patent infringement claim (excluding
                   declaratory judgment actions) against Initial Developer or
                   a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against
                   whom You assert such claim is referred to as ?Participant?)
                   alleging that the Participant Software (meaning the
                   Contributor Version where the Participant is a Contributor
                   or the Original Software where the Participant is the
                   Initial Developer) directly or indirectly infringes any
                   patent, then any and all rights granted directly or
                   indirectly to You by such Participant, the Initial
                   Developer (if the Initial Developer is not the Participant)
                   and all Contributors under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this
                   License shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant
                   terminate prospectively and automatically at the expiration
                   of such 60 day notice period, unless if within such 60 day
                   period You withdraw Your claim with respect to the
                   Participant Software against such Participant either
                   unilaterally or pursuant to a written agreement with
                   Participant.
            6.3. In the event of termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2
                   above, all end user licenses that have been validly granted
                   by You or any distributor hereunder prior to termination
                   (excluding licenses granted to You by any distributor)
                   shall survive termination.
       7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
            UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT
            (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE
            INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF
            COVERED SOFTWARE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE
            LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR
            CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT
            LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK
            STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
            COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
            INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
            LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL
            INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY?S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT
            APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO
            NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
            CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT
            APPLY TO YOU.
       8. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
            The Covered Software is a "commercial item," as that term is
            defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial
            computer Software" (as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 
            252.227-7014(a)(1)) and "commercial computer software
            documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept.
            1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1
            through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users
            acquire Covered Software with only those rights set forth herein.
            This U.S. Government Rights clause is in lieu of, and supersedes,
            any other FAR, DFAR, or other clause or provision that addresses
            Government rights in computer software under this License.
       9. MISCELLANEOUS.
            This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
            matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
            unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the
            extent necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be
            governed by the law of the jurisdiction specified in a notice
            contained within the Original Software (except to the extent
            applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding such
            jurisdiction's conflict-of-law provisions. Any litigation
            relating to this License shall be subject to the jurisdiction of
            the courts located in the jurisdiction and venue specified in a
            notice contained within the Original Software, with the losing
            party responsible for costs, including, without limitation, court
            costs and reasonable attorneys? fees and expenses. The
            application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
            International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or
            regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall
            be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
            You agree that You alone are responsible for compliance with the
            United States export administration regulations (and the export
            control laws and regulation of any other countries) when You use,
            distribute or otherwise make available any Covered Software.
       10. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
            As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
            responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or
            indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License
            and You agree to work with Initial Developer and Contributors to
            distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing
            herein is intended or shall be deemed to constitute any admission
            of liability.
