3.0 DISTRIBUTION OBLIGATIONS

3.1 Application of License. The Source Code version of Original Code may be
distributed only under the terms of this License or a future version of this
License released under Section 6.1, and You must include a copy of this
License with every copy of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer
or impose any terms on any Source Code version that alters or restricts the
applicable version of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder.
Your license for shipment of the Contributor Version is conditioned upon Your
full compliance with this Section. The Modifications which You create must
comply with all requirements set out by the Standards body in effect one
hundred twenty (120) days before You ship the Contributor Version. In the
event that the Modifications do not meet such requirements, You agree to
publish either (i) any deviation from the Standards protocol resulting from
implementation of Your Modifications and a reference implementation of Your
Modifications or (ii) Your Modifications in Source Code form, and to make any
such deviation and reference implementation or Modifications available to all
third parties under the same terms as this license on a royalty free basis
within thirty (30) days of Your first customer shipment of Your Modifications.

3.2 Required Notices. You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file
of the Source Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular
Source Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in a
location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be likely to look
for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s) You may add Your
name as a Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You must also
duplicate this License in any documentation for the Source Code where You
describe recipients' rights or ownership rights relating to Initial Code.
You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity
or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Your version of the
Code. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the
Initial Developer. You must make it absolutely clear than any such warranty,
support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You
hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer for any liability incurred by
the Initial Developer as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability
terms You offer.

3.3 Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute Original Code in
Executable and Source form only if the requirements of Sections 3.1 and 3.2
have been met for that Original Code, and if You include a notice stating that
the Source Code version of the Original Code is available under the terms of
this License. The notice must be conspicuously included in any notice in an
Executable or Source versions, related documentation or collateral in which
You describe recipients' rights relating to the Original Code. You may
distribute the Executable and Source versions of Your version of the Code or
ownership rights under 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. If You distribute the Executable and Source versions
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. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer for any
liability incurred by the Initial Developer as a result of any such terms You
offer.

3.4 Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Original Code 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 Original Code.

4.0 INABILITY TO COMPLY DUE TO STATUTE OR REGULATION

If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License
with respect to some or all of the Original Code due to statute, judicial
order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License
to the maximum extent possible; and (b) describe the limitations and the code
they affect. Such description must be included in the LEGAL file described in
Section 3.2 and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code.
Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description
must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
understand it.

5.0 APPLICATION OF THIS LICENSE

This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
notice in Exhibit A and to related Modifications as set out in Section 3.1.

6.0 VERSIONS OF THE LICENSE

6.1 New Versions. Sun may publish revised and/or new versions of the License
from time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing version number.

6.2 Effect of New Versions. Once Original Code has been published under a
particular version of the License, You may always continue to use it under the
terms of that version. You may also choose to use such Original Code under the
terms of any subsequent version of the License published by Sun. No one other
than Sun has the right to modify the terms applicable to Original Code.

7.0 DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

ORIGINAL CODE 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 ORIGINAL CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS,
MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK
AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE ORIGINAL CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY
ORIGINAL CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER)

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE
OF ANY ORIGINAL CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.

8.0 TERMINATION

if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within 30
days of becoming aware of the breach. All sublicenses to the Original Code
which are properly granted shall survive any termination of this License.
Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the
termination of this License shall survive.

8.2 In the event of termination under Section 8.1 above, all end user license
agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which have been validly
granted by You or any distributor hereunder prior to termination shall survive
termination.

9.0 LIMIT 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 ORIGINAL CODE, 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 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.
