-
-2.7   RECIPIENT UNDERSTANDS THAT ALTHOUGH EACH CONTRIBUTOR
-GRANTS THE LICENSES TO ITS CONTRIBUTIONS SET FORTH HEREIN, NO
-ASSURANCES ARE PROVIDED BY ANY CONTRIBUTOR THAT THE

-NOT INFRINGE THE PATENT OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
-RIGHTS OF ANY OTHER ENTITY. EACH CONTRIBUTOR DISCLAIMS ANY
-LIABILITY TO RECIPIENT FOR CLAIMS BROUGHT BY ANY OTHER ENTITY
-BASED ON INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR
-OTHERWISE. In addition, as a condition to exercising the rights and licenses
-granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure
-any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third 
party
-patent license is required to allow Recipient to Distribute the Program, it is
-Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before Distributing the 
Program.
-
-3. DESCRIPTION AND DEPOSIT OF CONTRIBUTIONS
-
-    3.1    To the extent Recipient wishes to become a Contributor by making a
-    Contribution, such Contributor shall:

-          License."; and
-          (e)    cause such Contribution to include a text file titled "LEGAL" 
which
-          describes any intellectual property rights of which Contributor is 
aware that
-          it or any third party may hold in the functionality or code of such

-
-4. REQUIREMENTS OF DISTRIBUTION
-
-     4.1    A Recipient may choose to Distribute the Program in object code 
form
-     under its own license agreement, provided that:
-
-           (a)  Recipient complies with the terms and conditions of this
-           Agreement; and
-
-           (b)    the terms and conditions of Recipient's license agreement 
with its
-           licensees:
-
-                  i.     effectively disclaim on behalf of all Contributors all
-                  warranties and conditions, express and implied, including
-                  warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and 
implied
-                  warranties or conditions of merchantability and fitness for a
-                  particular purpose;
-
-                  ii.    effectively exclude on behalf of all Contributors all 
liability for
-                  damages, including, but not limited to, direct, indirect, 
special,
-                  incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;
-
-                  iii.   state that any provisions which differ from this 
Agreement
-                  are offered by that Recipient alone and not by any other 
party; and
-
-                  iv.   state that source code for the Program is available 
from such
-                  Recipient, and inform licensees how to obtain it in a 
reasonable
-                  manner on or through a medium customarily used for software
-                  exchange.
-
-     4.2   If a Recipient chooses to Distribute the Program in source code 
form then:
-
-           (a)    the Program must be Distributed under this Agreement; and
-
-           (b)   a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of 
the
-           Program.
-
-     4.3   Each Recipient must include the following in a conspicuous location 
in the
-     Program so Distributed or transferred:
-             Copyright (c) 1996-{date here}, by all Contributors. All rights
-             reserved.
-
-     4.4    In addition, each Recipient that creates and Distributes or 
otherwise
-     transfers a Modification whether or not such Modification has been 
deposited
-     pursuant to Section 3 must identify the originator of such Modification 
in a
-     manner that reasonably allows third parties to identify the originator of 
the
-     Modification.
-
-5. INDEMNIFICATION
-
-A Recipient who Distributes the Program (a "Distributor") may accept certain
-responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the like. 
While this
-license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of the Program, a 
Distributor shall
-Distribute the Program in a manner which does not create potential liability 
for
-Contributors. Therefore each Distributor hereby agrees to defend and indemnify 
every
-Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs
-(collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions 
brought by a
-third party against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the 
acts or
-omissions of such Distributor, including but not limited to the terms and 
conditions under
-which Distributor offered the Program, in connection with its Distribution of 
the Program.
-The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating 
to any
-actual or alleged intellectual property infringement of the Program. In order 
to qualify,
-an Indemnified Contributor must: (a) promptly notify the Distributor in 
writing of such
-claim, and (b) allow the Distributor to control, and cooperate with the 
Distributor in, the
-defense and any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor 
may
-participate in the defense of any such claim at its own expense.
-
-For example, a Recipient might include the Program in a commercial product 
offering,
-Product X. That Recipient is then a Distributor. If that Distributor then makes
-performance claims, or offers warranties, support, or indemnity or any other 
license
-terms related to Product X, those performance claims, offers and other terms 
are such
-Distributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the Distributor would 
have to
-defend claims against the Contributors related to those performance claims, 
offers, and
-other terms, and if a court requires any Contributor to pay any damages as a 
result, the
-Distributor must pay those damages.
-
-6. NO WARRANTY
-
-EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS
-PROVIDED EXCLUSIVELY ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR
-CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT
-LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT,
-MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. EACH RECIPIENT IS
-SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE APPROPRIATENESS OF ITS USE AND
-DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM AND ASSUMES ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ITS
-EXERCISE OF RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
-THE RISKS AND COSTS OF PROGRAM ERRORS, COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE
-LAWS, DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF DATA, PROGRAMS OR EQUIPMENT, AND
-UNAVAILABILITY OR INTERRUPTION OF OPERATIONS.    THIS DISCLAIMER OR
-WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS AGREEMENT. NO USE OF
-THE PROGRAM OR ANY MODIFICATIONS THERETO ARE AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER
-EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
-
-7. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
-
-EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR
-ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT,
-INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING
-WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF
-LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING
-NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR
-DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED
-HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-
-8.    U.S. GOVERNMENT USE
-
-If Recipient is licensing the Program on behalf of any unit or agency of the 
United States
-Government, then the Program and any related documentation is commercial 
computer
-software, and, pursuant to FAR 12.212 or DFARS 227.7202 and their successors, 
as
-applicable, shall be licensed to the Government under the terms and conditions 
of this
-Agreement.
-
-9.    PATENT CLAIMS
-
-If Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a 
cross-claim,
-counterclaim or declaratory judgment claim in a lawsuit) alleging that the 
Program itself
-(excluding combinations of the Program with other software or hardware) 
infringes such
-Recipient's patent(s), then the rights granted to Recipient by each 
Contributor under
-Section 2.2 shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
-
-10.   TERMINATION
-
-All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if Recipient fails 
to comply
-with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not 
cure such
-failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of such 
noncompliance. If
-such occurs, Recipient shall cease use and Distribution of the Program based 
upon the
-rights granted to Recipient under this Agreement as soon as reasonably 
practicable.
-However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted 
by
-Recipient relating to the Program shall survive such termination.
-
-11.   LICENSE VERSIONS
-
-OSCI may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from 
time to
-time. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a distinguishing version 
number.
-The Program may always be Distributed subject to the version of the Agreement 
under
-which it was received. In addition, after a new version of the Agreement is 
published,
-Contributor may elect to Distribute the Program under the new version. No one 
other
-than OSCI, acting by a vote of at least 75% of the members of its Board of 
Directors,
-has the right to modify this Agreement; provided that Exhibit B and Exhibit C 
may be
-amended as specifically set forth in Section 3.1(b), and Exhibit D may be 
amended as
-specifically set forth in Section 1.10.
-

-This Agreement may be executed either electronically or on paper. By clicking 
on the
-“Accept” button, Recipient warrants that it agrees to all of the terms of this 
Agreement,
-that Recipient is authorized to enter into this Agreement, and that this 
Agreement is
-legally binding upon Recipient. If Recipient does not agree to be bound by this
-Agreement, then Recipient shall click the “Decline” button and Recipient shall 
not
-receive any rights from the Contributors nor shall Recipient download any 
materials,
-including the Program.
-

-I. LIST OF MARKS
-
-         1.        Open SystemC
-
-         2.        Open SystemC Initiative
-
-         3.        OSCI, SystemC
-
-         4.        SystemC Graphic Logo
-
-         5.        All logos that incorporate the foregoing word marks
-
-
-II. PROPER USE OF MARKS
-
-Trademarks and service marks function as adjectives and generally should not 
be used as
-nouns or verbs. Accordingly, as often as possible, the Marks should be used as 
adjectives
-immediately preceding the generic noun that refers to the service in question. 
For example:
-
-                          The SystemC™ software
-                          The SystemC™ LRM
-
-No Possessives or Plurals. Since they are not nouns, the Marks should never be 
used in the
-possessive or plural forms. For example, it is not appropriate to write 
“SystemC’s software.”
-
-No Use as Verbs or as Puns. The Marks should never be used as verbs or as puns.
-
-
-III. PROPER ATTRIBUTION
-
-Trademark ownership is attributed in two ways, with the use of a symbol (TM, 
SM, ®) after the mark
-and with a legal legend, usually found at the end of a document following the 
copyright notice.
-Following are OSCI’s rules for symbols and legends to attribute the Marks:
-
-Symbols:
-
-Which Symbol Do I Use?
-The Marks generally function as trademarks rather than servicemarks. Unless 
you are
-specifically directed otherwise, please use the ™ or ® symbol after the Marks.
-
-Where Do I Place the ® Symbol?
-The ™ or ® symbol is placed immediately after the mark, either in superscript 
or subscript.
-
-When Do I Use the Symbol?
-The ™ or ® symbol is to be used after the Marks in the following instances:
-
-Most Prominent Uses : A ™ or ® symbol is required after prominent uses of the 
Marks, e.g., in
-the headlines and large print text of web pages, advertisements, other 
promotional materials
-and press releases, except where space limitations or specific style 
considerations prevent
-compliance with this requirement.
-
-First Use in Text: A ™ or ® symbol is required after the first use of each 
Mark in text, e.g.
-advertising copy or the body of press releases, even though the symbol may 
have already
-appeared in the headline or after another prominent use of the mark in the 
same document.
-
-All Logos: The ™ or ® symbol must appear after all logos incorporating the 
Marks.
-
-
-IV. Legends
-
-All Marks that appear on a web page or in a press release, advertisement or 
other written
-material (whether in print or electronic form) must be attributed in an 
appropriate legend. The
-legend may be presented in “mouseprint” but must be large enough to be read 
easily. Legends
-generally appear at the end of a document or the bottom of a web page but may 
be placed
-elsewhere, e.g. the inside cover of documentation.
-
-The OSCI Legend: The following legend should be used in all materials in which 
any of the
-Marks appear:
-
-[Insert the Marks] are trademarks or registered trademarks of Open SystemC 
Initiative, Inc. in
-the United States and other countries and are used with permission.
-
-
-V. MARKS NEVER COMBINED
-
-The Marks should never be combined with the marks of any business other than 
OSCI. The
-Marks should always appear visually separate from any other marks appearing in 
the same
-materials such that each mark creates a distinct commercial impression. It 
would, for instance,
-not be appropriate to superimpose the logo of another business over any OSCI 
logo.
-
-
-VI. LOGOS
-
-Logos incorporating the Marks can only be used in the format provided to you 
by OSCI for
-incorporation into your materials or web pages. The logos provided to you by 
OSCI cannot be
-modified in any way without OSCI’s prior written approval. Logos copied from 
OSCI web pages
-or other materials may not to be used. Please contact [email protected] to 
obtain
-electronic files containing the OSCI logos and to ask any questions regarding 
the logos.

royalty-free, 
-            limited license to use the Marks solely in connection with its 
exercise of 
-            the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement and to indicate that 
the 
-            products being marketed by Recipient are compatible with, and meet 
the 
-            standards of, OSCI Releases. All uses of the Marks shall be in 
-            accordance with OSCI’s trademark usage policy set forth in Exhibit 
D. 
-
-            (b) Recipient shall assist OSCI to the extent reasonably necessary 
to 
-            protect and maintain the Marks worldwide, including, but not 
limited to, 
-            giving prompt notice to OSCI of any known or potential 
infringement of the 
-            Marks, and cooperating with OSCI in preparing and executing any 
-            documents necessary to register the Marks, or as may be required 
by the 
-            laws or rules of any country or jurisdiction. In its sole 
discretion, OSCI 
-            may commence, prosecute or defend any action or claim concerning 
the 
-            Marks. OSCI shall have the right to control any such litigation, 
and 
-            Recipient shall fully cooperate with OSCI in any such litigation. 
OSCI shall 
-            reimburse Recipient for the reasonable costs associated with 
providing 
-            such assistance, except to the extent that such costs result from 
-            Recipient’s breach of this Section 2.7. Recipient shall not 
commence any 
-            action regarding the Marks without OSCI’s prior written consent. 
-
-            (c) All goodwill with respect to the Marks shall accrue for the 
sole 
-            benefit of OSCI. Recipient shall maintain the quality of any 
products,

it uses 
-            any of the Marks in a manner consistent with all terms, conditions 
and 
-            requirements set forth in this Section 2.7 and at a level that 
meets or 
-            exceeds Recipient’s overall reputation for quality and that is at 
least 
-            commensurate with industry standards. 
-
-     2.8 RECIPIENT UNDERSTANDS THAT ALTHOUGH EACH CONTRIBUTOR AND 
-     OSCI GRANTS THE LICENSES SET FORTH HEREIN, NO ASSURANCES ARE 
-     PROVIDED BY ANY CONTRIBUTOR OR OSCI THAT ANY OSCI RELEASE OR ANY 
-     CONTRIBUTION, EITHER ALONE OR IN COMBINATION WITH ANY OTHER 
-     CONTRIBUTION, DOES NOT INFRINGE THE PATENT OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL 
-     PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY OTHER ENTITY. MOREOVER, NO ASSURANCES 
-     ARE MADE THAT ANY CONTRIBUTION OF ONE CONTRIBUTOR DOES NOT 
-     INFRINGE THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANOTHER CONTRIBUTOR. 
-     EACH CONTRIBUTOR AND OSCI DISCLAIM ANY LIABILITY TO RECIPIENT FOR 
-     CLAIMS BROUGHT BY ANY OTHER ENTITY BASED ON INFRINGEMENT OF 
-     INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHERWISE. In addition, as a condition 
-     to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient 
hereby 
-     assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property 
rights 
-     needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is required 
to allow 
-     Recipient to Distribute a computer program, then it is Recipient's 
responsibility to 
-     acquire that license before Distributing such computer program. 
-

-     In addition, each Recipient that creates and Distributes a modification 
or 
-     Derivative work of the OSCI Documentation, whether or not such 
modification or 
-     Derivative work has been contributed pursuant to a Copyright Agreement 
must 
-     identify the originator of such modification or Derivative work in a 
manner that 
-     reasonably allows third parties to identify the originator of the 
modification or 
-     derivative work. 
-
-5. INDEMNIFICATION 
-
-
-Any Recipient which Distributes any Contribution and/or OSCI Release (a 
"Distributor") 
-may accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business 
partners and the 
-like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of 
Contributions 
-OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases, a Distributor shall Distribute such 
-Contributions, OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases in a manner which does not 
-create potential liability for the Contributors. Therefore each Distributor 
hereby agrees 
-to defend and indemnify every Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against 
any 
-losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, 
lawsuits and 
-other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified 
Contributor to the 
-extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Distributor, including but not 
limited to 
-the terms and conditions under which Distributor offered such Contributions, 
OSCI 
-Documentation and/or OSCI Releases in connection with its Distribution 
thereof. The 
-obligations in this Section 5 do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to 
any actual 
-or alleged intellectual property infringement of any Contribution, OSCI 
Documentation or 
-OSCI Release. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: (a) 
promptly notify 
-the Distributor in writing of such claim, and (b) allow the Distributor to 
control, and 
-cooperate with the Distributor in, the defense and any related settlement 
negotiations. 
-The Indemnified Contributor may participate in the defense of any such claim 
at its own 
-expense. 
-
-For example, a Recipient might include a Contribution in a commercial product 
offering, 
-Product X. That Recipient is then a Distributor. If that Distributor then 
makes 
-performance claims, or offers warranties, support, or indemnity or any other 
license 
-terms related to Product X, those performance claims, offers and other terms 
are such 
-Distributor's responsibility alone. Under this Section 5, the Distributor 
would have to 
-defend claims against the Contributors related to those performance claims, 
offers, and 
-other terms, and if a court requires any Contributor to pay any damages as a 
result, the 
-Distributor must pay those damages. 
-
-6. NO WARRANTY 
-
-EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, ALL CONTRIBUTIONS, OSCI 
-DOCUMENTATION AND OSCI RELEASES ARE PROVIDED EXCLUSIVELY ON AN "AS IS" 
-BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR 
-IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF 
-TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 
-PURPOSE. EACH RECIPIENT IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE 
-APPROPRIATENESS OF ITS USE AND DISTRIBUTION OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI 
-DOCUMENTATION AND OSCI RELEASE AND ASSUMES ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH 
-ITS EXERCISE OF RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 
-THE RISKS AND COSTS OF PROGRAM ERRORS, COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE 
-LAWS, DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF DATA, PROGRAMS OR EQUIPMENT, AND 
-UNAVAILABILITY OR INTERRUPTION OF OPERATIONS. THIS DISCLAIMER OR 
-WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS AGREEMENT. NO USE OF 
-ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI DOCUMENTATION OR OSCI RELEASE ARE AUTHORIZED 
-HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER. 
-
-7. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY 
-
-EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NONE OF THE RECIPIENTS, 
-CONTRIBUTORS OR OSCI SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, 
-INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES 
-(INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY 
-THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT 
-(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR 
-DISTRIBUTION OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI DOCUMENTATION OR OSCI RELEASE OR 
-THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE 
-POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 
-
-8. U.S. GOVERNMENT USE 
-
-If Recipient is licensing any computer program on behalf of any unit or agency 
of the 
-United States Government, then such computer program is commercial computer 
-software, and, pursuant to FAR 12.212 or DFARS 227.7202 and their successors, 
as 
-applicable, shall be licensed to the Government under the terms and conditions 
of this 
-Agreement. 
-
-9. PATENT CLAIMS 
-
-If Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a 
cross-claim, 
-counterclaim or declaratory judgment claim in a lawsuit) alleging that any 
Contribution, 
-OSCI Release or combination of Contributions (excluding combinations of any 
-Contribution with other software or hardware) infringes such Recipient's 
patent(s), then 
-the rights granted to Recipient by each Contributor under Section 2 shall 
terminate as of 
-the date such litigation is filed. 
-
-10. TERMINATION 
-
-All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if Recipient fails 
to comply 
-with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not 
cure such 
-failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of such 
noncompliance. If 
-such occurs, Recipient shall cease all use and Distribution of any 
Contributions of any 
-other Contributor, OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases based upon the rights 
-granted to Recipient under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable. 
-However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted 
by 
-Recipient relating to any Contributions shall survive such termination. 
-
-11. LICENSE VERSIONS 
-
-OSCI may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from

-                             Trademark Usage Policy 
-
-I. LIST OF MARKS 
-
-     1. Open SystemC 
-
-     2. Open SystemC Initiative 
-
-     3. OSCI 
-
-     4. SystemC 
-
-     5. SystemC Initiative 
-
-     6. All logos that incorporate the foregoing word marks 
-
-
-II. PROPER USE OF MARKS 
-
-Trademarks and service marks function as adjectives and generally should not 
be used as 
-nouns or verbs. Accordingly, as often as possible, the Marks should be used as 
adjectives 
-immediately preceding the generic noun that refers to the service in question. 
For example: 
-
-             The SystemC® software 
-             The OSCI® LRM 
-
-No Possessives or Plurals. Since they are not nouns, the Marks should never be 
used in the 
-possessive or plural forms. For example, it is not appropriate to write 
“SystemC’s software.” 
-
-No Use as Verbs or as Puns. The Marks should never be used as verbs or as 
puns. 
-
-
-III. PROPER ATTRIBUTION 
-
-Trademark ownership is attributed in two ways, with the use of a symbol (TM, 
SM, ®) after the mark 
-and with a legal legend, usually found at the end of a document following the 
copyright notice. 
-Following are OSCI’s rules for symbols and legends to attribute the Marks: 
-
-Symbols: 
-
-Which Symbol Do I Use? 
-The Marks generally function as trademarks rather than servicemarks. Unless 
you are 
-specifically directed otherwise, please use the ® symbol after the Marks. 
-
-Where Do I Place the ® Symbol? 
-The ® symbol is placed immediately after the mark, either in superscript or 
subscript. 
- 
-When Do I Use the Symbol? 
-The ® symbol is to be used after the Marks in the following instances: 
- 
-Most Prominent Uses: A ® symbol is required after prominent uses of the Marks, 
e.g., in the 
-headlines and large print text of web pages, advertisements, other promotional 
materials and 
-press releases, except where space limitations or specific style 
considerations prevent 
-compliance with this requirement. 
-
-First Use in Text: A ® symbol is required after the first use of each Mark in 
text, e.g. advertising 
-copy or the body of press releases, even though the symbol may have already 
appeared in the 
-headline or after another prominent use of the mark in the same document. 
-
-All Logos: The ® symbol must appear after all logos incorporating the Marks. 
-
- 
-IV. Legends 
-
-All Marks that appear on a web page or in a press release, advertisement or 
other written 
-material (whether in print or electronic form) must be attributed in an 
appropriate legend. The 
-legend may be presented in “mouseprint” but must be large enough to be read 
easily. Legends 
-generally appear at the end of a document or the bottom of a web page but may 
be placed 
-elsewhere, e.g. the inside cover of documentation. 
-
-The OSCI Legend: The following legend should be used in all materials in which 
any of the 
-Marks appear: 
-
-[Insert the Marks] are trademarks or registered trademarks of Open SystemC 
Initiative, Inc. in 
-the United States and other countries and are used with permission. 
-
-
-V. MARKS NEVER COMBINED 
-
-The Marks should never be combined with the marks of any business other than 
OSCI. The 
-Marks should always appear visually separate from any other marks appearing in 
the same 
-materials such that each mark creates a distinct commercial impression. It 
would, for instance, 
-not be appropriate to superimpose the logo of another business over any OSCI 
logo. 
- 
-
-VI. LOGOS 
-
-Logos incorporating the Marks can only be used in the format provided to you 
by OSCI for 
-incorporation into your materials or web pages. The logos provided to you by 
OSCI cannot be 
-modified in any way without OSCI’s prior written approval. Logos copied from 
OSCI web pages 
-or other materials may not to be used. Please contact [email protected] 
to obtain 
-electronic files containing the OSCI logos and to ask any questions regarding 
the logos.
