Application of License. The Source Code version of Original Code may be distributed only under

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

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.
