you a fully-paid, non-exclusive, non-transferable,
worldwide, limited license (without the right to
sublicense), under Sun's applicab le intellectual
property rights to view, download, use and reproduce
the Specification only for the purpose of internal

themselves implement any portion(s) of the
Specification, and (ii) discussing the Specification
with any third party; and (iii) excerpting brief
portions of the Specification in oral or written
com munications which discuss the Specification
provided that such excerpts do not in the aggregate
constitute a significant portion of the Specification.

2. License for the Distribution of Compliant
Implementations. Sun also grants you a perpetual,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, fully
paid-up, royalty free, limited license (without the
right to sublicense) under any applicable copyrights
or, subject to the provisions of subsection 4 below,
patent rights it may have covering the Specification
to create and/or distribute an Independent
Implementation of the Specification that: (a) fully
implements the Specification including all its
required interfaces and functionality; (b) does not
modi fy, subset, superset or otherwise extend the
Licensor Name Space, or include any public or
protected packages, classes, Java interfaces, fields
or methods within the Licensor Name Space other than
those required/authorized by the Specifica tion or
Specifications being implemented; and (c) passes the
Technology Compatibility Kit (including satisfying the
requirements of the applicable TCK Users Guide) for
such Specification ("Compliant Implementation"). In
addition, the foregoing license is expressly
conditioned on your not acting outside its scope. No
license is granted hereunder for any other purpose
(including, for example, modifying the Specification,
other than to the extent of your fair use rights, or
distributing the Specification to third parties).
Also, no right, title, or interest in or to any
trademarks, service marks, or trade names of Sun or

3. Pass-through Conditions. You need not include
limitations (a)-(c) from the previous paragraph or any
other particular "pass t hrough" requirements in any
license You grant concerning the use of your
Independent Implementation or products derived from
it. However, except with respect to Independent
Implementations (and products derived from them) that
satisfy limitations (a)-(c) from the previous
paragraph, You may neither: (a) grant or otherwise
pass through to your licensees any licenses under
Sun's applicable intellectual property rights; nor
(b) authorize your licensees to make any claim s
concerning their implementation's compliance with the
Specification in question.

4. Reciprocity Concerning Patent Licenses.

a. With respect to any patent claims covered
by the license granted under subparagraph 2 above that
would be infringed by all technically feasible
implementations of the Specification, such license is
conditioned upon your offering on fair, reasonable and
non-discriminatory terms, to any party seeking it from
You, a perpetual, non-e xclusive, non-transferable,
worldwide license under Your patent rights which are
or would be infringed by all technically feasible
implementations of the Specification to develop,
distribute and use a Compliant Implementation.

b W ith respect to any patent claims owned by
Sun and covered by the license granted under
subparagraph 2, whether or not their infringement can
be avoided in a technically feasible manner when
implementing the Specification, such license shal l
terminate with respect to such claims if You initiate
a claim against Sun that it has, in the course of
performing its responsibilities as the Specification
Lead, induced any other entity to infringe Your patent
rights.

c Al so with respect to any patent claims
owned by Sun and covered by the license granted under
subparagraph 2 above, where the infringement of such
claims can be avoided in a technically feasible manner
when implementing the Specification such license, with
respect to such claims, shall terminate if You
initiate a claim against Sun that its making, having
made, using, offering to sell, selling or importing a
Compliant Implementation infringes Your patent rights.

5. Defi nitions. For the purposes of this Agreement:
"Independent Implementation" shall mean an
implementation of the Specification that neither
derives from any of Sun's source code or binary code
materials nor, except with an appropriate and s eparate
license from Sun, includes any of Sun's source code
or binary code materials; "Licensor Name Space" shall
mean the public class or interface declarations whose
names begin with "java", "javax", "com.sun" or their
equivalents in any subsequent naming convention
adopted by Sun through the Java Community Process, or
any recognized successors or replacements thereof; and
"Technology Compatibility Kit" or "TCK" shall mean the
test suite and accompanying TCK User's Guide provided
by Sun which corresponds to the Specification and
that was available either (i) from Sun's 120 days
before the first release of Your Independent
Implementation that allows its use for commercial
purposes, or (ii) more recently than 120 days from
such release but against which You elect to test Your
implementation of the Specification.

This Agreement will terminate immediately without
notice from Sun if you breach the Agreement or act
outside the scope of the licenses granted above.
