+2. License for the Distribution of Compliant Implementations. Sun also
+grants you a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide,
+fully paid-up, royalty free, limited license (without the right to
+sublicense) under any applicable copyrights or, subject to the

+the Specification to create and/or distribute an Independent
+Implementation of the Specification that: (a) fully implements the
+Specification including all its required interfaces and functionality;
+(b) does not modify, subset, superset or otherwise extend the Licensor

+interfaces, fields or methods within the Licensor Name Space other
+than those required/authorized by the Specification or Specifications
+being implemented; and (c) passes the Technology Compatibility Kit
+(including satisfying the requirements of the applicable TCK Users
+Guide) for such Specification ("Compliant Implementation"). In
+addition, the foregoing license is expressly conditioned on your not

+other than to the extent of your fair use rights, or distributing the

+3. Pass-through Conditions. You need not include limitations (a)-(c)
+from the previous paragraph or any other particular "pass through"
+requirements in any license You grant concerning the use of your
+Independent Implementation or products derived from it. However,
+except with respect to Independent Implementations (and products

+concerning their implementation's compliance with the Spec in

+<p>
+4. Reciprocity Concerning Patent Licenses.
+</p>
+<p>
+a. With respect to any patent claims covered by the license granted
+under subparagraph 2 above that would be infringed by all technically
+feasible implementations of the Specification, such license is
+conditioned upon your offering on fair, reasonable and
+non-discriminatory terms, to any party seeking it from You, a
+perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license under
+Your patent rights which are or would be infringed by all technically
+feasible implementations of the Specification to develop, distribute
+and use a Compliant Implementation.
+</p>
+<p>
+b. With respect to any patent claims owned by Sun and covered by the
+license granted under subparagraph 2, whether or not their
+infringement can be avoided in a technically feasible manner when
+implementing the Specification, such license shall terminate with
+respect to such claims if You initiate a claim against Sun that it
+has, in the course of performing its responsibilities as the Sun,
+induced any other entity to infringe Your patent rights.
+</p>
+<p>
+c. Also with respect to any patent claims owned by Sun and covered by
+the license granted under subparagraph, where the infringement of such
+claims can be avoided in a technically feasible manner when
+implementing the Specification such license, with respect to such
+claims, shall terminate if You initiate a claim against Sun that its
+making, having made, using, offering to sell, selling or importing a
+Compliant Implementation infringes Your patent rights.
+</p>
+<p>
+5. Definitions. For the purposes of this Agreement: "Independent
+Implementation" shall mean an implementation of the Specification that
+neither derives from any of Sun's source code or binary code materials
+nor, except with an appropriate and separate license from Sun,
+includes any of Sun's source code or binary code materials; "Licensor
+Name Space" shall mean the public class or interface declarations
+whose names begin with "java", "javax", "com.sun" or their equivalents
+in any subsequent naming convention adopted by Sun through the Java
+Community Process, or any recognized successors or replacements
+thereof; and "Technology Compatibility Kit" or "TCK" shall mean the
+test suite and accompanying TCK User's Guide provided by Sun which
+corresponds to the Specification and that was available either (i)
+from Sun's 120 days before the first release of Your Independent
+Implementation that allows its use for commercial purposes, or (ii)
+more recently than 120 days from such release but against which You
+elect to test Your implementation of the Specification.
+</p>
+<p>
+This Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from Sun if
+you breach the Agreement or act outside the scope of the licenses
+granted above.
