+1. License for Evaluation Purposes. Sun hereby grants you a +fully-paid, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, limited +license (without the right to sublicense), under Sun's applicable +intellectual property rights to view, download, use and reproduce the +Specification only for the purpose of internal evaluation. This +includes (i) developing applications intended to run on an +implementation of the Specification, provided that such applications +do not themselves implement any portion(s) of the Specification, and +(ii) discussing the Specification with any third party; and (iii) +excerpting brief portions of the Specification in oral or written +communications which discuss the Specification provided that such +excerpts do not in the aggregate constitute a significant portion of +the Specification. +

+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 +provisions of subsection 4 below, patent rights it may have covering +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 +Name Space, or include any public or protected packages, classes, Java +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 +acting outside its scope. No license is granted hereunder for any +other purpose (including, for example, modifying the Specification, +other than to the extent of your fair use rights, or distributing the +Specification to third parties). Also, no right, title, or interest in +or to any trademarks, service marks, or trade names of Sun or Sun's +licensors, Sun or the Sun's licensors is granted hereunder. Java, and +Java-related logos, marks and names are trademarks or registered +trademarks of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the U.S. and other countries. +

+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 +derived from them) that satisfy limitations (a)-(c) from the previous +paragraph, You may neither: (a) grant or otherwise pass through to +your licensees any licenses under Sun's applicable intellectual +property rights; nor (b) authorize your licensees to make any claims +concerning their implementation's compliance with the Spec in +question. +

+4. Reciprocity Concerning Patent Licenses. +

+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. +

+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. +

+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. +

+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. +

+This Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from Sun if +you breach the Agreement or act outside the scope of the licenses +granted above. +
