-1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License Agreement (the "License"), Oculus VR, Inc. ("Oculus VR") hereby grants to you a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, fully sublicenseable copyright license to use, reproduce, redistribute, modify, and improve the software contained in this Software Development Kit ("SDK"). This license includes the right to prepare derivative works ("Derivative Works"), whether in source, binary, or object form, based on the SDK including third party software unless otherwise noted. Derivative Works are defined as source, binary or object code derived exclusively from the SDK; provided, however, that Derivative Works do not include engines, utilities, applications, content or games which may be developed using the SDK. By way of example a videogame that is developed using the SDK would not be a Derivative Work and a utility or tool set in a pre-existing game engine that is adapted to work with the SDK would not be a Derivative Work. By way of example, but not limitation, a Derivative Work is or would be: either (i) an adaptation of a utility or piece of code from the SDK to improve efficiency; or (ii) an addition of code or improvement to the SDK that adds functionality. When you use the SDK (including Derivative Works) with your engines, utilities, applications, content or games you retain all rights thereto, and you have no obligations to share or license these items to Oculus or any third parties.
+1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License Agreement (the "License"),
+Oculus VR, Inc. ("Oculus VR") hereby grants to you a perpetual, worldwide,
+non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, sublicenseable copyright license to use,
+reproduce, redistribute (subject to restrictions below), modify, and improve the
+software contained in this Oculus VR Rift Software Development Kit ("RIFT SDK"),
+including, but not limited to, the samples, headers, LibOVR headers, and LibOVR
+source. This license is subject to the following terms and conditions:
+
+1.1. This license includes the non-exclusive license and right to use (i) the RIFT
+SDK to make applications, content, games and demos (collectively and generally
+referred to as “Developer Content”) that run on the Oculus VR approved mobile hardware
+and software products (“Oculus Approved Rift Products”) and which may incorporate
+the RIFT SDK in whole or in part in binary or object code; and (ii) to use the
+RIFT SDK to create derivative works of the RIFT SDK itself ("RIFT SDK Derivatives"),
+whether in source, binary, or object form, in whole or in part, including third
+party software unless otherwise noted.
+
+1.2. RIFT SDK Derivatives are further defined as source, binary or object code
+derived exclusively from the RIFT SDK by you; provided, however, that RIFT SDK
+Derivatives do not include the Developer Content (engines, utilities, applications,
+content, games or demos) which may be developed using the RIFT SDK. By way of example
+a mobile application or game or demo that is developed using the RIFT SDK would not
+be a RIFT SDK Derivative , nor would a utility or tool set in a pre-existing game
+engine that is adapted to work with the RIFT SDK be a RIFT SDK Derivative.
+By way of example, but not limitation, a RIFT SDK Derivative is or would be: either (i)
+an adaptation of a utility or piece of code from the RIFT SDK to improve efficiency;
+or (ii) an addition of code or improvement to the RIFT SDK that adds functionality.
+
+1.3 For the sake of clarification when you use the RIFT SDK (including RIFT SDK
+Derivatives) in or with Developer Content, you retain all rights to your Developer
+Content, and you have no obligations to share or license Developer Content (including
+your source and object code) to Oculus VR or any third parties; provided, however,
+Oculus VR retains all rights to the RIFT SDK and the RIFT SDK Derivatives that may
+be incorporated into your Developer Content.
+
+1.4 You agree to and you will use the Flash Screen Warning and the Health and
+Safety Warnings (collectively the “Oculus Warnings”) and the Oculus VR health and
+safety protocols found in the Oculus Best Practices Guide (“Oculus H&S Protocols”),
+and your use of the Oculus Warnings and the Oculus end user license agreement
+(“Oculus EULA”) with your Developer Content as provided for in the Oculus Developer
+Center, all of which can be found at the following link:
+https://developer.oculusvr.com/?action=doc.
+
+2. You, the recipient and user of the RIFT SDK, hereby agree and accept that that
+Oculus VR shall own all right, title and interest to the intellectual property
+rights, including, but limited to copyright, trademark and patent rights, to any
+RIFT SDK Derivatives that you may create, and you hereby assign any and all such
+rights to such RIFT SDK Derivatives to Oculus VR, subject to the following.
+
+2.1 We hereby grant to you the a fully paid up, no-charge, royalty-free,
+world-wide, in perpetuity, non-exclusive right and license back to use these RIFT
+SDK Derivatives solely in conjunction with the RIFT SDK (or any components of the
+RIFT SDK) and/or Developer Content on Oculus Rift Products as set forth herein.
+
+2.2 Furthermore, for the sake of clarification, Oculus VR and its assignees and
+licensees shall be free to use such RIFT SDK Derivatives without any approval
+from you and without compensation or attribution to you.

+or redistribute the source, binary or object code of LibOVR in whole, and you may
+not license, sublicense or redistribute any portion or element of LibOVR separately
+or in part (in either source, binary or object form). If you license, sublicense
+or redistribute RIFT SDK Derivatives in and of themselves (not as a part of a
+piece of Developer Content) then you may only do that solely with and in conjunction
+with either the RIFT SDK or LibOVR. The RIFT SDK (including, but not limited to
+LibOVR), any RIFT SDK Derivatives, and any Developer Content may only be used
+with Oculus Approved Rift Products and may not be used, licensed, or sublicensed
+to interface with mobile software or hardware or other commercial headsets,
+mobile tablets or phones that are not authorized and approved by Oculus VR;

+
+3.5. If the RIFT SDK or a specific element thereof such as LibOVR includes a
+"LICENSE" text file as part of its distribution (the “License Notice”), then
+any RIFT SDK Derivatives that you distribute with the RIFT SDK in whole or in
+part must include a readable copy of such attribution notices as are contained
+within the applicable License Notice file (excluding those notices that do not
+pertain to any part of the RIFT SDK Derivatives), in at least one of the following
+places: within a License Notice text file distributed as part of the RIFT SDK
+Derivatives; within the source form or documentation, if provided along with
+the RIFT SDK Derivatives; or, within a display generated by the RIFT SDK Derivatives,
