IBM Public License Version 1.0
THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS IBM PUBLIC
LICENSE
("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM
CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S
ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
1. DEFINITIONS
"Contribution" means:
a) in the case of International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM"),
the Original Program, and
b) in the case of each Contributor,
i) changes to the Program, and
ii) additions to the Program;
where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and
are distributed by that particular
Contributor. A Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was
added to the Program by such Contributor
itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf. Contributions do
not include additions to the Program
which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in conjunction
with the Program under their own license
agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of the Program.
"Contributor" means IBM and any other entity that distributes the Program.
"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which are
necessarily infringed by the use or sale
of its Contribution alone or when combined with the Program.
"Original Program" means the original version of the software accompanying
this Agreement as released by IBM,
including source code, object code and documentation, if any.
"Program" means the Original Program and Contributions.
"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement,
including all Contributors.
2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide,
royalty-free copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works
of, publicly display, publicly perform,
distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such Contributor, if any,
and such derivative works, in source code
and object code form.
b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide,
royalty-free patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell,
offer to sell, import and otherwise transfer
the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, in source code and object
code form. This patent license shall apply
to the combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at the time
the Contribution is added by the
Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such combination
to be covered by the Licensed Patents.
The patent license shall not apply to any other combinations which
include the Contribution. No hardware per se
is licensed hereunder.
c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the
licenses to its Contributions set forth herein,
no assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does 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. 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.
d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient
copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to
grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.
3. REQUIREMENTS
A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form under
its own license agreement, provided that:
a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
b) its license agreement:
i) effectively disclaims 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 excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability
for damages, including direct, indirect, special,
incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;
iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are
offered by that Contributor alone and not by
any other party; and
iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such
Contributor, and informs licensees how to
obtain it in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily
used for software exchange.
When the Program is made available in source code form:
a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and
b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the
Program.
Each Contributor must include the following in a conspicuous location in the
Program:
Copyright � {date here}, International Business Machines Corporation
and others. All Rights Reserved.
In addition, each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of its
Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably
allows subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.
4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
Commercial distributors of software 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, the Contributor who includes
the Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner which
does not create potential liability for
other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a
commercial product offering, such Contributor
("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other
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
Commercial Contributor in connection with its distribution of the Program in
a commercial product offering. The
obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to
any actual or alleged intellectual property
infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a)
promptly notify the Commercial Contributor in
writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control,
and cooperate with the Commercial
Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. The
Indemnified Contributor may participate in any
such claim at its own expense.
For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product
offering, Product X. That Contributor is
then a Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes
performance claims, or offers warranties
related to Product X, those performance claims and warranties are such
Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone.
Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims
against the other Contributors related to
those performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires any other
Contributor to pay any damages as a result,
the Commercial Contributor must pay those damages.
5. NO WARRANTY
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED 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 using
and distributing 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.
6. 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.
7. GENERAL
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without
further action by the parties hereto, such
provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such
provision valid and enforceable.
If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with respect
to a patent applicable to software (including a
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted
by that Contributor to such Recipient under
this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. In
addition, If Recipient institutes patent litigation
against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim 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 such
Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date
such litigation is filed.
All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it 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 all Recipient's rights under this Agreement
terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and
distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However,
Recipient's obligations under this Agreement
and any licenses granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue
and survive.
IBM 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
(including Contributions) 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
(including its Contributions) under the new
version. No one other than IBM has the right to modify this Agreement.
Except as expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and
2(b) above, Recipient receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual
property of any Contributor under this Agreement,
whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the
Program not expressly granted under this
Agreement are reserved.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and the
intellectual property laws of the United States
of America. No party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this
Agreement more than one year after the cause
of action arose. Each party waives its rights to a jury trial in any
resulting litigation.
