-
- 3. Distribution Obligations.
-
- 3.1. Application of License.
-
- The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are governed
- by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2. The
- Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms
- of this License or a future version of this License released under Section
- 6.1, and 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 applicable version of this License or
- the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include an additional document
- offering the additional rights described in Section 3.5.
-
- 3.2. Availability of Source Code.
-
- Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be made
- available in Source Code form under the terms of this License either on the
- same media as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution
- Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version available; and
- if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must remain available
- for at least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became available,
- or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
- has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring
- that the Source Code version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution
- Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
-
- 3.3. Description of Modifications.
-
- You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to contain a file
- documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and the date
- of any change. You must include a prominent statement that the Modification
- is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial
- Developer and including the name of the Initial Developer in (a) the Source
- Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or related documentation
- in which You describe the origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
-
- 3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
-
- (a) Third Party Claims.
-
- If Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's intellectual
- property rights is required to exercise the rights granted by such Contributor
- under Sections 2.1 or 2.2, Contributor must include a text file with the Source
- Code distribution titled "LEGAL'' which describes the claim and the party
- making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact.
- If Contributor obtains such knowledge after the Modification is made available
- as described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly modify the LEGAL file
- in all copies Contributor makes available thereafter and shall take other
- steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably
- calculated to inform those who received the Covered Code that new knowledge
- has been obtained.
-
- (b) Contributor APIs.
-
- If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming interface
- and Contributor has knowledge of patent licenses which are reasonably necessary
- to implement that API, Contributor must also include this information in the
- LEGAL file.
-
- (c) Representations.
-
- Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to Section 3.4(a)
- above, Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications are Contributor's
- original creation(s) and/or Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the
- rights conveyed by this License.
-
- 3.5. 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 Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and
- to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations
- to one or more recipients of Covered Code. 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 than 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.
-
- 3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
-
- You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the requirements
- of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include
- a notice stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available
- under the terms of this License, including a description of how and where
- You have fulfilled the obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously
- included in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
- collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the Covered
- Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered 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
- and that the license for the Executable version does not attempt to limit
- or alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code version from the rights
- set forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable version 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 any 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.
-
- 3.7. Larger Works.
-
- You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code not
- governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work as a
- single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements of this
- License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
-
- 4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
-
- If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License
- with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute, judicial order,
- or regulation then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to
- the maximum extent possible; and (b) describe the limitations and the code
- they affect. Such description must be included in the LEGAL file described
- in Section 3.4 and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code.
- Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description
- must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able
- to understand it.
-
- 5. Application of this License.
-
- This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
- notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
-
- 6. Versions of the License.
-
- 6.1. New Versions.
-
- Borland Software Corporation (''Interbase'') may publish revised and/or new
- versions of the License from time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing
- version number.
-
- 6.2. Effect of New Versions.
-
- Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the License,
- You may always continue to use it under the terms of that version. You may
- also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms of any subsequent version
- of the License published by Interbase. No one other than Interbase has the
- right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code created under this License.
-
- 6.3. Derivative Works.
-
- If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you may only
- do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code governed
- by this License), You must (a) rename Your license so that the phrases ''Mozilla'',
- ''MOZILLAPL'', ''MOZPL'', ''Netscape'', "MPL", ''NPL", "Interbase", "ISC",
- "IB'' or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your license (except
- to note that your license differs from this License) and (b) otherwise make
- it clear that Your version of the license contains terms which differ from
- the Mozilla Public License and Netscape Public License. (Filling in the name
- of the Initial Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the notice described
- in Exhibit A shall not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of this
- License.)
-

- with the following changes:
-
- The license is published by Borland Software Corporation. Only Borland Software
- Corporation can modify the terms applicable to Covered Code.
-
- The license can be modified used for code which is not already governed by

- WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR
- A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY
- AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE
- DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY 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
- CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.

- 8. TERMINATION.
-
- 8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically

- 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code
- which are properly granted shall survive any termination of this License.
- Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination
- of this License shall survive.
-
- 8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement claim (excluding
- declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer or a Contributor (the
- Initial Developer or Contributor against whom You file such action is referred
- to as "Participant") alleging that:
-
- (a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly infringes
- any patent, then any and all rights granted by such Participant to You under
- Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant
- terminate prospectively, unless if within 60 days after receipt of notice
- You either: (i) agree in writing to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable
- royalty for Your past and future use of Modifications made by such Participant,
- or (ii) withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to the Contributor Version
- against such Participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable royalty
- and payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties
- or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, the rights granted by Participant
- to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at the expiration
- of the 60 day notice period specified above.
-
- (b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's Contributor
- Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then any rights granted
- to You by such Participant under Sections 2.1(b) and 2.2(b) are revoked effective
- as of the date You first made, used, sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications
- made by that Participant.
-
- 8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant alleging
- that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly infringes
- any patent where such claim is resolved (such as by license or settlement)
- prior to the initiation of patent infringement litigation, then the reasonable
- value of the licenses granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2
- shall be taken into account in determining the amount or value of any payment
- or license.
-
- 8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, all end
- user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which have
- been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder prior to termination
- shall survive termination.
-
- 9. 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 CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF
- ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,

- AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE
- BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
- SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH
- PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION.
