| 89 | <UL><B>3.1. Application of License.</B> <BR>The Modifications which You create |
| 90 | or to which You contribute are governed by the terms of this License, |
| 91 | including without limitation Section <B>2.2</B>. The Source Code version of |
| 92 | Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms of this License or a |
| 93 | future version of this License released under Section <B>6.1</B>, and You must |
| 94 | include a copy of this License with every copy of the Source Code You |
| 95 | distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code version |
| 96 | that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License or the |
| 97 | recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include an additional document |
| 98 | offering the additional rights described in Section <B>3.5</B>. |
| 99 | <P><B>3.2. Availability of Source Code.</B> <BR>Any Modification which You |
| 100 | create or to which You contribute must be made available in Source Code form |
| 101 | under the terms of this License either on the same media as an Executable |
| 102 | version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom |
| 103 | you made an Executable version available; and if made available via Electronic |
| 104 | Distribution Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve (12) months |
| 105 | after the date it initially became available, or at least six (6) months after |
| 106 | a subsequent version of that particular Modification has been made available |
| 107 | to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code |
| 108 | version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is |
| 109 | maintained by a third party. |
| 110 | <P><B>3.3. Description of Modifications.</B> <BR>You must cause all Covered |
| 111 | Code to which you contribute to contain a file documenting the changes You |
| 112 | made to create that Covered Code and the date of any change. You must include |
| 113 | a prominent statement that the Modification is derived, directly or |
| 114 | indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial Developer and including |
| 115 | the name of the Initial Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any |
| 116 | notice in an Executable version or related documentation in which You describe |
| 117 | the origin or ownership of the Covered Code. |
| 118 | <P><B>3.4. Intellectual Property Matters</B> |
| 119 | <UL> |
| 120 | <P><B>(a) Third Party Claims</B>. <BR>If You have knowledge that a party |
| 121 | claims an intellectual property right in particular functionality or code |
| 122 | (or its utilization under this License), you must include a text file with |
| 123 | the source code distribution titled ``LEGAL'' which describes the claim and |
| 124 | the party making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will know |
| 125 | whom to contact. If you obtain such knowledge after You make Your |
| 126 | Modification available as described in Section <B>3.2</B>, You shall |
| 127 | promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make available thereafter |
| 128 | and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or |
| 129 | newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who received the Covered |
| 130 | Code that new knowledge has been obtained. |
| 131 | <P><B>(b) Contributor APIs</B>. <BR>If Your Modification is an application |
| 132 | programming interface and You own or control patents which are reasonably |
| 133 | necessary to implement that API, you must also include this information in |
| 134 | the LEGAL file. </P></UL> |
| 135 | <P><B>3.5. Required Notices.</B> <BR>You must duplicate the notice in |
| 136 | <B>Exhibit A</B> in each file of the Source Code, and this License in any |
| 137 | documentation for the Source Code, where You describe recipients' rights |
| 138 | relating to Covered Code. If You created one or more Modification(s), You may |
| 139 | add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in <B>Exhibit A</B>. If |
| 140 | it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source Code file due to |
| 141 | its structure, then you must include such notice in a location (such as a |
| 142 | relevant directory file) where a user would be likely to look for such a |
| 143 | notice. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, |
| 144 | indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code. |
| 145 | However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the |
| 146 | Initial Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than |
| 147 | any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by |
| 148 | You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every |
| 149 | Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such |
| 150 | Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You |
| 151 | offer. |
| 152 | <P><B>3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.</B> <BR>You may distribute |
| 153 | Covered Code in Executable form only if the requirements of Section |
| 154 | <B>3.1-3.5</B> have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include a |
| 155 | notice stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available |
| 156 | under the terms of this License, including a description of how and where You |
| 157 | have fulfilled the obligations of Section <B>3.2</B>. The notice must be |
| 158 | conspicuously included in any notice in an Executable version, related |
| 159 | documentation or collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating |
| 160 | to the Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered Code |
| 161 | under a license of Your choice, which may contain terms different from this |
| 162 | License, provided that You are in compliance with the terms of this License |
| 163 | and that the license for the Executable version does not attempt to limit or |
| 164 | alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code version from the rights set |
| 165 | forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable version under a |
| 166 | different license You must make it absolutely clear that any terms which |
| 167 | differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial |
| 168 | Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial |
| 169 | Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial |
| 170 | Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer. |
| 171 | <P><B>3.7. Larger Works.</B> <BR>You may create a Larger Work by combining |
| 172 | Covered Code with other code not governed by the terms of this License and |
| 173 | distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make |
| 174 | sure the requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code. |
| 175 | </P></UL><B>4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.</B> |
| 176 | <UL> |
| 177 | <P>If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License |
| 178 | with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute or regulation |
| 179 | then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent |
| 180 | possible; and (b) describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such |
| 181 | description must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section <B>3.4</B> |
| 182 | and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the |
| 183 | extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be |
| 184 | sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to |
| 185 | understand it. </P></UL><B>5. Application of this License.</B> |
| 186 | <UL>This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached |
| 187 | the notice in <B>Exhibit A</B>, and to related Covered Code. </UL><B>6. Versions |
| 188 | of the License.</B> |
| 189 | <UL><B>6.1. New Versions</B>. <BR>Netscape Communications Corporation |
| 190 | (``Netscape'') may publish revised and/or new versions of the License from |
| 191 | time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing version number. |
| 192 | <P><B>6.2. Effect of New Versions</B>. <BR>Once Covered Code has been |
| 193 | published under a particular version of the License, You may always continue |
| 194 | to use it under the terms of that version. You may also choose to use such |
| 195 | Covered Code under the terms of any subsequent version of the License |
| 196 | published by Netscape. No one other than Netscape has the right to modify the |
| 197 | terms applicable to Covered Code created under this License. |
| 198 | <P><B>6.3. Derivative Works</B>. <BR>If you create or use a modified version |
| 199 | of this License (which you may only do in order to apply it to code which is |
| 200 | not already Covered Code governed by this License), you must (a) rename Your |
| 201 | license so that the phrases ``Mozilla'', ``MOZILLAPL'', ``MOZPL'', |
| 202 | ``Netscape'', ``NPL'' or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear anywhere |
| 203 | in your license and (b) otherwise make it clear that your version of the |
| 204 | license contains terms which differ from the Mozilla Public License and |
| 205 | Netscape Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, |
| 206 | Original Code or Contributor in the notice described in <B>Exhibit A</B> shall |
| 207 | not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of this License.) </P></UL><B>7. |
| 208 | DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.</B> |
| 209 | <UL>COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN ``AS IS'' BASIS, WITHOUT |
| 210 | WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT |
| 211 | LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, |
| 212 | FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE |
| 213 | QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED |
| 214 | CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY |
| 215 | OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR |
| 216 | CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS |
| 217 | LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS |
| 218 | DISCLAIMER. </UL><B>8. TERMINATION.</B> |
| 219 | <UL>This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically |
| 220 | if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within 30 |
| 221 | days of becoming aware of the breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code |
| 222 | which are properly granted shall survive any termination of this License. |
| 223 | Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the |
| 224 | termination of this License shall survive. </UL><B>9. LIMITATION OF |
| 225 | LIABILITY.</B> |
| 226 | <UL>UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING |
| 227 | NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER |
| 228 | CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF |
| 229 | SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, |
| 230 | INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT |
| 231 | LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR |
| 232 | MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH |
| 233 | PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS |
| 234 | LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL |
| 235 | INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW |
| 236 | PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR |
| 237 | LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THAT EXCLUSION AND |
| 238 | LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. </UL><B>10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.</B> |
| 239 | <UL>The Covered Code is a ``commercial item,'' as that term is defined in 48 |
| 240 | C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of ``commercial computer software'' and |
| 241 | ``commercial computer software documentation,'' as such terms are used in 48 |
| 242 | C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. |
| 243 | 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users |
| 244 | acquire Covered Code with only those rights set forth herein. </UL><B>11. |
| 245 | MISCELLANEOUS.</B> |
| 246 | <UL>This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject matter |
| 247 | hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such |
| 248 | provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it |
| 249 | enforceable. This License shall be governed by California law provisions |
| 250 | (except to the extent applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding |
| 251 | its conflict-of-law provisions. With respect to disputes in which at least one |
| 252 | party is a citizen of, or an entity chartered or registered to do business in, |
| 253 | the United States of America: (a) unless otherwise agreed in writing, all |
| 254 | disputes relating to this License (excepting any dispute relating to |
| 255 | intellectual property rights) shall be subject to final and binding |
| 256 | arbitration, with the losing party paying all costs of arbitration; (b) any |
| 257 | arbitration relating to this Agreement shall be held in Santa Clara County, |
| 258 | California, under the auspices of JAMS/EndDispute; and (c) any litigation |
| 259 | relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal |
| 260 | Courts of the Northern District of California, with venue lying in Santa Clara |
| 261 | County, California, with the losing party responsible for costs, including |
| 262 | without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses. |
| 263 | The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the |
| 264 | International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or regulation which |
| 265 | provides that the language of a contract shall be construed against the |
| 266 | drafter shall not apply to this License. </UL><B>12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR |
| 267 | CLAIMS.</B> |
| 268 | <UL>Except in cases where another Contributor has failed to comply with |
| 269 | Section <B>3.4</B>, You are responsible for damages arising, directly or |
| 270 | indirectly, out of Your utilization of rights under this License, based on the |
| 271 | number of copies of Covered Code you made available, the revenues you received |
| 272 | from utilizing such rights, and other relevant factors. You agree to work with |
| 273 | affected parties to distribute responsibility on an equitable basis. |
