|
|||
|
claim in a court asserting that a Necessary Claim is infringed by an
|
|||
|
Implementation, any licenses granted under this License to the Licensee
|
|||
|
are immediately terminated unless 1) that claim is directly in response
|
|||
|
to a claim against Licensee regarding an Implementation, or 2) that claim
|
|||
|
was brought to enforce the terms of this License, including intervention

|
an Implementation of the Specification would not infringe intellectual
|
|||

2.2. Patent Licensing Commitment. In addition to the rights granted
|
|||

|
|||
|
royalty-free license on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms
|
|||
|
to Contributor’s Necessary Claims that are within Scope for:
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
applies only to those Necessary Claims infringed by implementing
|
|||
|
Contributor's Contribution(s) included in that Draft Specification,
|
|||
|
and 2) Implementations of the Approved Specification.
|
|||
|
|
|||

|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
2.3. Effect of Withdrawal. Contributor may withdraw from the Working Group
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
the Working Group repository’s Notices.md file. All of Contributor’s
|
|||
|
existing commitments and obligations with respect to the Working Group
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
new obligations will be incurred.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

|
|||

|
|||
|
3.1. As a Result of Contributions. Contributor may exclude Necessary
|
|||
|
Claims from its licensing commitments incurred under Section 2.1.1
|
|||
|
by issuing an Exclusion Notice within 45 days of the date of that
|
|||
|
Contribution. Contributor may not issue an Exclusion Notice for any
|
|||
|
material that has been included in a Draft Deliverable for more than 45
|
|||
|
days prior to the date of that Contribution.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
3.2. As a Result of a Draft Specification Becoming an Approved
|
|||
|
Specification. Prior to the adoption of a Draft Specification as an
|
|||
|
Approved Specification, Contributor may exclude Necessary Claims from
|
|||
|
its licensing commitments under this Agreement by issuing an Exclusion
|
|||
|
Notice. Contributor may not issue an Exclusion Notice for patents that

|||
|
were eligible to have been excluded pursuant to Section 3.1.

|
source code will be subject to the MIT License.

|
|
|||
|
5. No Other Rights. Except as specifically set forth in this License, no
|
|||
|
other express or implied patent, trademark, copyright, or other rights are
|
|||
|
granted under this License, including by implication, waiver, or estoppel.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
6. Antitrust Compliance. Contributor acknowledge that it may compete
|
|||
|
with other participants in various lines of business and that it is
|
|||
|
therefore imperative that they and their respective representatives
|
|||
|
act in a manner that does not violate any applicable antitrust laws and
|
|||
|
regulations. This License does not restrict any Contributor from engaging
|
|||
|
in similar specification development projects. Each Contributor may
|
|||
|
design, develop, manufacture, acquire or market competitive deliverables,
|
|||
|
products, and services, and conduct its business, in whatever way it
|
|||
|
chooses. No Contributor is obligated to announce or market any products
|
|||
|
or services. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
|
|||
|
Contributors agree not to have any discussion relating to any product
|
|||
|
pricing, methods or channels of product distribution, division of markets,
|
|||
|
allocation of customers or any other topic that should not be discussed
|
|||
|
among competitors under the auspices of the Working Group.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
7. Non-Circumvention. Contributor agrees that it will not intentionally
|
|||
|
take or willfully assist any third party to take any action for the
|
|||
|
purpose of circumventing any obligations under this License.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
8. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimers.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
8.1. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimers. Contributor and Licensee
|
|||
|
represents and warrants that 1) it is legally entitled to grant the
|
|||
|
rights set forth in this License and 2) it will not intentionally include
|
|||
|
any third party materials in any Contribution unless those materials are
|
|||
|
available under terms that do not conflict with this License. IN ALL OTHER
|
|||
|
RESPECTS ITS CONTRIBUTIONS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS." The entire risk as to
|
|||
|
implementing or otherwise using the Contribution or the Specification
|
|||
|
is assumed by the implementer and user. Except as stated herein,
|
|||
|
CONTRIBUTOR AND LICENSEE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES (EXPRESS,
|
|||
|
IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE), INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
|
|||
|
NON-INFRINGEMENT, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, CONDITIONS OF QUALITY,
|
|||
|
OR TITLE, RELATED TO THE CONTRIBUTION OR THE SPECIFICATION. IN NO EVENT
|
|||
|
WILL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR LOST PROFITS OR ANY
|
|||
|
FORM OF INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF
|
|||
|
ANY CHARACTER FROM ANY CAUSES OF ACTION OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO
|
|||
|
THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING
|
|||
|
NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
|
|||
|
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. Any obligations regarding
|
|||
|
the transfer, successors in interest, or assignment of Necessary Claims
|
|||
|
will be satisfied if Contributor or Licensee notifies the transferee
|
|||
|
or assignee of any patent that it knows contains Necessary Claims or
|
|||
|
necessary claims under this License. Nothing in this License requires
|
|||
|
Contributor to undertake a patent search. If Contributor is 1) employed by
|
|||
|
or acting on behalf of an employer, 2) is making a Contribution under the
|
|||
|
direction or control of a third party, or 3) is making the Contribution
|
|||
|
as a consultant, contractor, or under another similar relationship with
|
|||
|
a third party, Contributor represents that they have been authorized by
|
|||
|
that party to enter into this License on its behalf.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
8.2. Distribution Disclaimer. Any distributions of technical
|
|||
|
information to third parties must include a notice materially similar
|
|||
|
to the following: “THESE MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” The
|
|||
|
Contributors and Licensees expressly disclaim any warranties (express,
|
|||
|
implied, or otherwise), including implied warranties of merchantability,
|
|||
|
non-infringement, fitness for a particular purpose, or title, related to
|
|||
|
the materials. The entire risk as to implementing or otherwise using the
|
|||
|
materials is assumed by the implementer and user. IN NO EVENT WILL THE
|
|||
|
CONTRIBUTORS OR LICENSEES BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR LOST PROFITS
|
|||
|
OR ANY FORM OF INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
|
|||
|
OF ANY CHARACTER FROM ANY CAUSES OF ACTION OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO
|
|||
|
THIS DELIVERABLE OR ITS GOVERNING AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF
|
|||
|
CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT
|
|||
|
THE OTHER MEMBER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.”
