  1. IBM Public License Version 1.0
  2. THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS IBM PUBLIC
  3. LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE
  4. PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
  5. 1. DEFINITIONS
  6. "Contribution" means:
  7. a) in the case of International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM"),
  8. the Original Program, and
  9. b) in the case of each Contributor,
  10. i) changes to the Program, and
  11. ii) additions to the Program;
  12. where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and
  13. are distributed by that particular Contributor. A Contribution
  14. 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the Program by such
  15. Contributor itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf.
  16. Contributions do not include additions to the Program which: (i) are
  17. separate modules of software distributed in conjunction with the Program
  18. under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of
  19. the Program.
  20. "Contributor" means IBM and any other entity that distributes the Program.
  21. "Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which
  22. are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution alone or
  23. when combined with the Program.
  24. "Original Program" means the original version of the software accompanying
  25. this Agreement as released by IBM, including source code, object code and
  26. documentation, if any.
  27. "Program" means the Original Program and Contributions.
  28. "Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement,
  29. including all Contributors.
  30. 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
  31. a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
  32. grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright
  33. license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display,
  34. publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such
  35. Contributor, if any, and such derivative works, in source code and
  36. object code form.
  37. b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
  38. grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license
  39. under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, import and
  40. otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, in
  41. source code and object code form. This patent license shall apply to the
  42. combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at the time the
  43. Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition of the
  44. Contribution causes such combination to be covered by the Licensed
  45. Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any other combinations
  46. which include the Contribution. No hardware per se is licensed
  47. hereunder.
  48. c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the
  49. licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are
  50. provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the
  51. patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each
  52. Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by
  53. any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights
  54. or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses
  55. granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to
  56. secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For
  57. example, if a third party patent license is required to allow Recipient
  58. to distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire
  59. that license before distributing the Program.
  60. d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient
  61. copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright
  62. license set forth in this Agreement.
  63. 3. REQUIREMENTS
  64. A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form
  65. under its own license agreement, provided that:
  66. a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
  67. b) its license agreement:
  68. i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all warranties
  69. and conditions, express and implied, including warranties or conditions
  70. of title and non-infringement, and implied warranties or conditions of
  71. merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose;
  72. ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability for
  73. damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental and
  74. consequential damages, such as lost profits;
  75. iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are
  76. offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other party; and
  77. iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such
  78. Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain it in a reasonable
  79. manner on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange.
  80. When the Program is made available in source code form:
  81. a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and
  82. b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the
  83. Program.
  84. Each Contributor must include the following in a conspicuous location in
  85. the Program:
  86. Copyright © {date here}, International Business Machines Corporation and
  87. others. All Rights Reserved.
  88. In addition, each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of
  89. its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows subsequent
  90. Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.
  91. 4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
  92. Commercial distributors of software may accept certain responsibilities
  93. with respect to end users, business partners and the like. While this
  94. license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of the Program, the
  95. Contributor who includes the Program in a commercial product offering
  96. should do so in a manner which does not create potential liability for
  97. other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a
  98. commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor")
  99. hereby agrees to defend and indemnify every other Contributor
  100. ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs
  101. (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal
  102. actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to
  103. the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor
  104. in connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product
  105. offering. The obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or
  106. Losses relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property
  107. infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a)
  108. promptly notify the Commercial Contributor in writing of such claim, and
  109. b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with the
  110. Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement
  111. negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such
  112. claim at its own expense.
  113. For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial
  114. product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial
  115. Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance claims,
  116. or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance claims and
  117. warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under
  118. this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to defend claims
  119. against the other Contributors related to those performance claims and
  120. warranties, and if a court requires any other Contributor to pay any
  121. damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor must pay those damages.
  122. 5. NO WARRANTY
  123. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED
  124. ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER
  125. EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR
  126. CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
  127. PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely responsible for determining
  128. the appropriateness of using and distributing the Program and assumes all
  129. risks associated with its exercise of rights under this Agreement,
  130. including but not limited to the risks and costs of program errors,
  131. compliance with applicable laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or
  132. equipment, and unavailability or interruption of operations.
  133. 6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
  134. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR ANY
  135. CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT,
  136. INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING
  137. WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF
  138. LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING
  139. NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION
  140. OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF
  141. ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
  142. 7. GENERAL
  143. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under
  144. applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
  145. remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further action by
  146. the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent
  147. necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.
  148. If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with
  149. respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or
  150. counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that
  151. Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as of
  152. the date such litigation is filed. In addition, If Recipient institutes
  153. patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or
  154. counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program itself (excluding
  155. combinations of the Program with other software or hardware) infringes
  156. such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's rights granted under
  157. Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
  158. All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it fails to
  159. comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and
  160. does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming
  161. aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights under this
  162. Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and distribution of the
  163. Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, Recipient's
  164. obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by Recipient
  165. relating to the Program shall continue and survive.
  166. IBM may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from
  167. time to time. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a
  168. distinguishing version number. The Program (including Contributions) may
  169. always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement under which
  170. it was received. In addition, after a new version of the Agreement is
  171. published, Contributor may elect to distribute the Program (including its
  172. Contributions) under the new version. No one other than IBM has the right
  173. to modify this Agreement. Except as expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and
  174. 2(b) above, Recipient receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual
  175. property of any Contributor under this Agreement, whether expressly, by
  176. implication, estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not
  177. expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved.
  178. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and the
  179. intellectual property laws of the United States of America. No party to
  180. this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement more than
  181. one year after the cause of action arose. Each party waives its rights to
  182. a jury trial in any resulting litigation.
