---|
3 | THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS ECLIPSE |
---|
4 | PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION |
---|
5 | OF THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT. |
---|
6 | |
---|
7 | 1. DEFINITIONS |
---|
8 | |
---|
9 | "Contribution" means: |
---|
10 | |
---|
11 | a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial code and |
---|
12 | documentation distributed under this Agreement, and |
---|
13 | |
---|
14 | b) in the case of each subsequent Contributor: |
---|
15 | |
---|
16 | i) changes to the Program, and |
---|
17 | |
---|
18 | ii) additions to the Program; |
---|
19 | |
---|
20 | where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate |
---|
21 | from and are distributed by that particular Contributor. A |
---|
22 | Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to |
---|
23 | the Program by such Contributor itself or anyone acting on such |
---|
24 | Contributor's behalf. Contributions do not include additions to |
---|
25 | the Program which: (i) are separate modules of software |
---|
26 | distributed in conjunction with the Program under their own |
---|
27 | license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of the |
---|
28 | Program. |
---|
29 | |
---|
30 | "Contributor" means any person or entity that distributes the |
---|
31 | Program. |
---|
32 | |
---|
33 | "Licensed Patents" mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor |
---|
34 | which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its |
---|
35 | Contribution alone or when combined with the Program. |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | "Program" means the Contributions distributed in accordance with |
---|
38 | this Agreement. |
---|
39 | |
---|
40 | "Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this |
---|
41 | Agreement, including all Contributors. |
---|
42 | |
---|
43 | 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS |
---|
44 | |
---|
45 | a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby |
---|
46 | grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright |
---|
47 | license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, |
---|
48 | publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such |
---|
49 | Contributor, if any, and such derivative works, in source code and |
---|
50 | object code form. |
---|
51 | |
---|
52 | b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby |
---|
53 | grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent |
---|
54 | license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, |
---|
55 | import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, |
---|
56 | if any, in source code and object code form. This patent license |
---|
57 | shall apply to the combination of the Contribution and the Program |
---|
58 | if, at the time the Contribution is added by the Contributor, such |
---|
59 | addition of the Contribution causes such combination to be covered |
---|
60 | by the Licensed Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any |
---|
61 | other combinations which include the Contribution. No hardware per |
---|
62 | se is licensed hereunder. |
---|
63 | |
---|
64 | c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the |
---|
65 | licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are |
---|
66 | provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the |
---|
67 | patent or other intellectual property rights of any other |
---|
68 | entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for |
---|
69 | claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of |
---|
70 | intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to |
---|
71 | exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient |
---|
72 | hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual |
---|
73 | property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent |
---|
74 | license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the Program, it |
---|
75 | is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before |
---|
76 | distributing the Program. |
---|
77 | |
---|
78 | d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has |
---|
79 | sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant |
---|
80 | the copyright license set forth in this Agreement. |
---|
81 | |
---|
82 | 3. REQUIREMENTS |
---|
83 | |
---|
84 | A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code |
---|
85 | form under its own license agreement, provided that: |
---|
86 | |
---|
87 | a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; |
---|
88 | and |
---|
89 | |
---|
90 | b) its license agreement: |
---|
91 | |
---|
92 | i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all |
---|
93 | warranties and conditions, express and implied, including |
---|
94 | warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and |
---|
95 | implied warranties or conditions of merchantability and |
---|
96 | fitness for a particular purpose; |
---|
97 | |
---|
98 | ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all |
---|
99 | liability for damages, including direct, indirect, special, |
---|
100 | incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits; |
---|
101 | |
---|
102 | iii) states that any provisions which differ from this |
---|
103 | Agreement are offered by that Contributor alone and not by |
---|
104 | any other party; and |
---|
105 | |
---|
106 | iv) states that source code for the Program is available |
---|
107 | from such Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain |
---|
108 | it in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily |
---|
109 | used for software exchange. |
---|
110 | |
---|
111 | When the Program is made available in source code form: |
---|
112 | |
---|
113 | a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and |
---|
114 | |
---|
115 | b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of |
---|
116 | the Program. |
---|
117 | |
---|
118 | Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices contained |
---|
119 | within the Program. |
---|
120 | |
---|
121 | Each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of its |
---|
122 | Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows subsequent |
---|
123 | Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution. |
---|
124 | |
---|
125 | 4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION |
---|
126 | |
---|
127 | Commercial distributors of software may accept certain |
---|
128 | responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and |
---|
129 | the like. While this license is intended to facilitate the |
---|
130 | commercial use of the Program, the Contributor who includes the |
---|
131 | Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner |
---|
132 | which does not create potential liability for other |
---|
133 | Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a |
---|
134 | commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial |
---|
135 | Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other |
---|
136 | Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages |
---|
137 | and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and |
---|
138 | other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified |
---|
139 | Contributor to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such |
---|
140 | Commercial Contributor in connection with its distribution of the |
---|
141 | Program in a commercial product offering. The obligations in this |
---|
142 | section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual |
---|
143 | or alleged intellectual property infringement. In order to qualify, |
---|
144 | an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial |
---|
145 | Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial |
---|
146 | Contributor to control, and cooperate with the Commercial |
---|
147 | Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement |
---|
148 | negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any |
---|
149 | such claim at its own expense. |
---|
150 | |
---|
151 | For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial |
---|
152 | product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial |
---|
153 | Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance |
---|
154 | claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance |
---|
155 | claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's |
---|
156 | responsibility alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor |
---|
157 | would have to defend claims against the other Contributors related |
---|
158 | to those performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires |
---|
159 | any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial |
---|
160 | Contributor must pay those damages. |
---|
161 | |
---|
162 | 5. NO WARRANTY |
---|
163 | |
---|
164 | EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS |
---|
165 | PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF |
---|
166 | ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, |
---|
167 | ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, |
---|
168 | MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient |
---|
169 | is solely responsible for determining the appropriateness of using |
---|
170 | and distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with |
---|
171 | its exercise of rights under this Agreement , including but not |
---|
172 | limited to the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with |
---|
173 | applicable laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, |
---|
174 | and unavailability or interruption of operations. |
---|
175 | |
---|
176 | 6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY |
---|
177 | |
---|
178 | EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT |
---|
179 | NOR ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, |
---|
180 | INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES |
---|
181 | (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON |
---|
182 | ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR |
---|
183 | TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF |
---|
184 | THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS |
---|
185 | GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
---|
186 | DAMAGES. |
---|
187 | |
---|
188 | 7. GENERAL |
---|
189 | |
---|
190 | If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under |
---|
191 | applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability |
---|
192 | of the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further |
---|
193 | action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to |
---|
194 | the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and |
---|
195 | enforceable. |
---|
196 | |
---|
197 | If Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity |
---|
198 | (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that |
---|
199 | the Program itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other |
---|
200 | software or hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then |
---|
201 | such Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate |
---|
202 | as of the date such litigation is filed. |
---|
203 | |
---|
204 | All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it |
---|
205 | fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this |
---|
206 | Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of |
---|
207 | time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's |
---|
208 | rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use |
---|
209 | and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably |
---|
210 | practicable. However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement |
---|
211 | and any licenses granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall |
---|
212 | continue and survive. |
---|
213 | |
---|
214 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this |
---|
215 | Agreement, but in order to avoid inconsistency the Agreement is |
---|
216 | copyrighted and may only be modified in the following manner. The |
---|
217 | Agreement Steward reserves the right to publish new versions |
---|
218 | (including revisions) of this Agreement from time to time. No one |
---|
219 | other than the Agreement Steward has the right to modify this |
---|
220 | Agreement. The Eclipse Foundation is the initial Agreement |
---|
221 | Steward. The Eclipse Foundation may assign the responsibility to |
---|
222 | serve as the Agreement Steward to a suitable separate entity. Each |
---|
223 | new version of the Agreement will be given a distinguishing version |
---|
224 | number. The Program (including Contributions) may always be |
---|
225 | distributed subject to the version of the Agreement under which it |
---|
226 | was received. In addition, after a new version of the Agreement is |
---|
227 | published, Contributor may elect to distribute the Program |
---|
228 | (including its Contributions) under the new version. Except as |
---|
229 | expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, Recipient receives |
---|
230 | no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any |
---|
231 | Contributor under this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, |
---|
232 | estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not expressly |
---|
233 | granted under this Agreement are reserved. |
---|
234 | |
---|
235 | This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and |
---|
236 | the intellectual property laws of the United States of America. No |
---|
237 | party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this |
---|
238 | Agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Each |
---|
239 | party waives its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation. |
