  such Covered Software in Source Code form in a reasonable manner
  on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange.

  original creation(s) and/or You have sufficient rights to grant
  the rights conveyed by this License.

  Modifications that identifies You as the Contributor of the
  Modification. You may not remove or alter any copyright, patent
  or trademark notices contained within the Covered Software, or
  any notices of licensing or any descriptive text giving
  attribution to any Contributor or the Initial Developer.

  3.4. Application of Additional Terms. You may not offer or
  impose any terms on any Covered Software in Source Code form
  that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License
  or the recipients rights hereunder. You may choose to offer, and
  to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
  obligations to one or more recipients of Covered
  Software. However, you may do so only on Your own behalf, and
  not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You
  must make it absolutely clear that any such warranty, support,
  indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and
  You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every
  Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer
  or such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity
  or liability terms You offer.

  may contain terms different from this License, provided that You
  are in compliance with the terms of this License and that the
  license for the Executable form does not attempt to limit or
  alter the recipients rights in the Source Code form from the
  rights set forth in this License. If You distribute the Covered
  Software in Executable form 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
  or Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
  Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by
  the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any
  such terms You offer.

  4. Versions of the License.

  4.1. New Versions. Sun Microsystems, Inc. is the initial license
  steward and may publish revised and/or new versions of this

  distinguishing version number. Except as provided in Section
  4.3, no one other than the license steward has the right to
  modify this License.

  4.2. Effect of New Versions. You may always continue to use,
  distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software available
  under the terms of the version of the License under which You
  originally received the Covered Software. If the Initial
  Developer includes a notice in the Original Software prohibiting
  it from being distributed or otherwise made available under any
  subsequent version of the License, You must distribute and make
  the Covered Software available under the terms of the version of
  the License under which You originally received the Covered
  Software.  Otherwise, You may also choose to use, distribute or
  otherwise make the Covered Software available under the terms of
  any subsequent version of the License published by the license
  steward.

  4.3. Modified Versions. When You are an Initial Developer and
  You want to create a new license for Your Original Software, You
  may create and use a modified version of this License if You:

  the license steward (except to note that the license differs
  from this License); and (b) otherwise make it clear that the
  license contains terms which differ from this License.

  OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING,
  REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN
  ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED SOFTWARE
  IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.

  the breach. Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in
  effect beyond the termination of this License shall survive.

  6.2. If You assert a patent infringement claim (excluding
  declaratory judgment actions) against Initial Developer or a
  Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
  You assert such claim is referred to as Participant) alleging
  that the Participant Software (meaning the Contributor Version
  where the Participant is a Contributor or the Original Software
  where the Participant is the Initial Developer) directly or
  indirectly infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted
  directly or indirectly to You by such Participant, the Initial
  Developer (if the Initial Developer is not the Participant) and
  all Contributors under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
  shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate
  prospectively and automatically at the expiration of such 60 day
  notice period, unless if within such 60 day period You withdraw
  Your claim with respect to the Participant Software against such
  Participant either unilaterally or pursuant to a written
  agreement with Participant.

  6.3. In the event of termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2
  above, all end user licenses that have been validly granted by
  You or any distributor hereunder prior to termination (excluding
  licenses granted to You by any distributor) shall survive
  termination.

  7. LIMITATION 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 COVERED SOFTWARE, 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 LOST
  PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR

  OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO
  LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH
  PARTYS NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH
  LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR

  commercial item, as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101
  (Oct. 1995), consisting of commercial computer software (as that

  License is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be
