1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, Licensor
hereby grants to the Foundation:

  a) a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable
     copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
     publicly display, publicly perform, distribute and sublicense,
     internally and externally, the Software and such derivative
     works, in source code and object code form; and,

  b) a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable
     patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell,
     offer to sell, import and otherwise transfer the Software
     in source code and object code form. "Licensed Patents" mean
     patent claims owned by Licensor which are necessarily
     infringed by the use or sale of the Software alone.

2. Licensor represents that, to Licensor's knowledge, Licensor is
legally entitled to grant the above license. Licensor agrees to notify
the Foundation of any facts or circumstances of which Licensor becomes
aware and which makes or would make Licensor's representations in this

OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,

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 WORK OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS
GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

This License Agreement is the entire agreement of the parties
with respect to its subject matter, and may only be amended by a
writing signed by each party. This License Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be
considered an original.

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Licensor has executed this License Agreement
