      must be distributed only under the terms of this License.

      You must include a copy of this License with every copy of

      the Source Code form of the Covered Software You

      distribute or otherwise make available. You must inform

      recipients of any such Covered Software in Executable form

      as to how they can obtain such Covered Software in Source

      Code form in a reasonable manner on or through a medium

      customarily used for software exchange.

    • 3.2. Modifications.

      The Modifications that You create or to which You

      contribute are governed by the terms of this License. You

      represent that You believe Your Modifications are Your

      original creation(s) and/or You have sufficient rights to

      grant the rights conveyed by this License.

    • 3.3. Required Notices.

      You must include a notice in each of Your Modifications

      that identifies You as the Contributor of the

      Modification. You may not remove or alter any copyright,

      patent or trademark notices contained within the Covered

      Software, or any notices of licensing or any descriptive

      text giving attribution to any Contributor or the Initial

      Developer.

    • 3.4. Application of Additional Terms.

      You may not offer or impose any terms on any Covered

      Software in Source Code form that alters or restricts the

      applicable version of this License or the

      recipients rights hereunder. You may choose to

      offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support,

      indemnity or liability obligations to one or more

      recipients of Covered Software. However, you may do so

      only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial

      Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely

      clear that any such warranty, support, indemnity or

      liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You

      hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every

      Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial

      Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty,

      support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.

    • 3.5. Distribution of Executable Versions.

      You may distribute the Executable form of the Covered

      Software under the terms of this License or under the

      terms of a license of Your choice, which may contain terms

      different from this License, provided that You are in

      compliance with the terms of this License and that the

      license for the Executable form does not attempt to limit

      or alter the recipients rights in the Source Code

      form from the rights set forth in this License. If You

      distribute the Covered Software in Executable form under a

      different license, You must make it absolutely clear that

      any terms which differ from this License are offered by

      You alone, not by the Initial Developer or Contributor.

      You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and

      every Contributor for any liability incurred by the

      Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any

      such terms You offer.

    • 3.6. Larger Works.

      You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered

      Software with other code not governed by the terms of this

      License and distribute the Larger Work as a single

      product. In such a case, You must make sure the

      requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered

      Software.

  • 4. Versions of the License.

    • 4.1. New Versions.

      Sun Microsystems, Inc. is the initial license steward

      and may publish revised and/or new versions of this

      License from time to time. Each version will be given a

      distinguishing version number. Except as provided in

      Section 4.3, no one other than the license steward has the

      right to modify this License.

    • 4.2. Effect of New Versions.

      You may always continue to use, distribute or otherwise

      make the Covered Software available under the terms of the

      version of the License under which You originally received

      the Covered Software. If the Initial Developer includes a

      notice in the Original Software prohibiting it from being

      distributed or otherwise made available under any

      subsequent version of the License, You must distribute and

      make the Covered Software available under the terms of the

      version of the License under which You originally received

      the Covered Software. Otherwise, You may also choose to

      use, distribute or otherwise make the Covered Software

      available under the terms of any subsequent version of the

      License published by the license steward.

    • 4.3. Modified Versions.

      When You are an Initial Developer and You want to

      create a new license for Your Original Software, You may

      create and use a modified version of this License if You:

      (a) rename the license and remove any references to

      the name of the license steward (except to note that the

      license differs from this License); and (b) otherwise

      make it clear that the license contains terms which differ

      from this License.
