1. License for Evaluation Purposes. Sun hereby grants you a fully-paid,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, limited license (without the right
to sublicense), under Sun's applicable intellectual property rights to view,
download, use and reproduce the Specification only for the purpose of internal
evaluation. This includes (i) developing applications intended to run on an

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)

previous paragraph or any other particular "pass through" 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 claims concerning
their implementation's compliance with the Spec 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-exclusive, 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 With 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 shall 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 Also with respect to any patent claims owned by Sun and covered by the license
granted under subparagraph, 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. Definitions. 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 separate 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 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.
