LICENSE A

GREEMENTS

End User License Agreement for Operating System Software

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the

recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute

or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any

further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not

responsible for enforcing compliance by thirdparties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement

or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you

(whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this

License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot

distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and

any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the

Program at all.

For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the

Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the

only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be torefrain entirely from

distribution of the Program. If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable

underany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended toapply and

the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other

property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the

sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,

which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous

contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance

on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he

or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a license cannot

impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a

consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries

either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places

the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation

excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries

not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written

in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the

General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to

the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a

version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have

the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later

version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify

a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the

Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose

distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For

software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free

Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be

guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free

software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO

WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE

LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT

HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT

WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,

BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY

AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE

QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE

PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY

SERVICING,REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED

TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO

MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE,

BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,

INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR

INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS

OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED

BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE

WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY

HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to

the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can

redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them

to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty;

and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full

notice is found.

<one line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>

Copyright © <year> <name of author>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the

terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software

Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT

ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY

or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public

License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with

this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St,

Fifth Floor, Boston,MA 02110-1301 USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an

interactive mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © year name of author Gnomovision comes

with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w’. This is free

software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type

`show c’ for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w’ and `show c’ should show the appropriate

parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called

something other than `show w’ and `show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or

menu items--whatever suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school,

if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample;

alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

`Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989

Ty Coon, President of Vice

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into

proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more

useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want

to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this License.
