     portions thereof).
     
     3. the licenses granted in this Section 2.1 (a) and (b) are
     effective on the date Initial Developer first distributes Original
     Code under the terms of this License.
     
     4. Notwithstanding Section 2.1 (b) above, no patent license is
     granted: 1) for code that You delete from the Original Code; 2)

     trademark) Licensable by Contributor, to use, reproduce, modify,
     display, perform, sublicense and distribute the Modifications

     as part of a Larger Work; and
     
     2. under Patent Claims infringed by the making, using, or selling
     of Modifications made by that Contributor either alone and/or in
     combination with its Contributor Version (or portions of such
     combination), to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or
     otherwise dispose of: 1) Modifications made by that Contributor (or
     portions thereof); and 2) the combination of Modifications made by

     combination).
     
     3. the licenses granted in Sections 2.2 (a) and 2.2 (b) are
     effective on the date Contributor first makes Commercial Use of the
     Covered Code.
     
     4. Notwithstanding Section 2.2 (b) above, no patent license is
     granted: 1) for any code that Contributor has deleted from the

     for infringements caused by: i) third party modifications of
     Contributor Version or ii) the combination of Modifications made by
     that Contributor with other software (except as part of the
     Contributor Version) or other devices; or 4) under Patent Claims
     infringed by Covered Code in the absence of Modifications made by
     that Contributor. 

  3. Distribution Obligations.
  3.1. Application of License.

  The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are
  governed by the terms of this License, including without limitation
  Section 2.2. The Source Code version of Covered Code may be
  distributed only under the terms of this License or a future version
  of this License released under Section 6.1, and You must include a
  copy of this License with every copy of the Source Code You
  distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code
  version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this
  License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include
  an additional document offering the additional rights described in
  
  Section 3.5.
  
  3.2. Availability of Source Code.

  Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be
  made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License
  either on the same media as an Executable version or via an accepted
  Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an
  Executable version available; and if made available via Electronic
  Distribution Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve (12)
  months after the date it initially became available, or at least six
  (6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
  has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for
  ensuring that the Source Code version remains available even if the
  Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
  
  3.3. Description of Modifications.

  You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to contain a
  file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and
  the date of any change. You must include a prominent statement that
  the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original
  Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the
  Initial Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an
  Executable version or related documentation in which You describe the
  origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
  
  3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
  
  (a) Third Party Claims

  If Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's
  intellectual property rights is required to exercise the rights
  granted by such Contributor under Sections 2.1 or 2.2, Contributor
  must include a text file with the Source Code distribution titled
  "LEGAL" which describes the claim and the party making the claim in
  sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If
  Contributor obtains such knowledge after the Modification is made
  available as described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly
  modify the LEGAL file in all copies Contributor makes available
  thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
  mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who
  received the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
  
  (b) Contributor APIs

  If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming
  interface and Contributor has knowledge of patent licenses which are
  reasonably necessary to implement that API, Contributor must also
  include this information in the legal file.
  
  (c) Representations.

  Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to Section
  3.4 (a) above, Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications
  are Contributor's original creation(s) and/or Contributor has
  sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this License.
  
  3.5. Required Notices.

  You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source
  Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source
  Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in a
  location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be likely
  to look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s)
  You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in
  Exhibit A. You must also duplicate this License in any documentation
  for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership
  rights relating to Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to
  charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability
  obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code. 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 than
  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.
  
  3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.

  You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the
  requirements of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 have been met for
  that Covered Code, and if You include a notice stating that the Source
  Code version of the Covered Code is available under the terms of this
  License, including a description of how and where You have fulfilled
  the obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously
  included in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation
  or collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the
  Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered
  Code or ownership rights under 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 version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's
  rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this
  License. If You distribute the Executable version 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 any 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.
  
  3.7. Larger Works.

  You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code 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 Code.
  
  4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.

  If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
  License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to
  statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
  the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
  describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description
  must be included in the legal file described in Section 3.4 and must
  be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the
  extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
  sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
  understand it.
  
  5. Application of this License.

  This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has
  attached the notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
  
  6. Versions of the License.
  6.1. New Versions

  Netscape Communications Corporation ("Netscape") may publish revised
  and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version
  will be given a distinguishing version number.
  
  6.2. Effect of New Versions

  Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
  License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that
  version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms
  of any subsequent version of the License published by Netscape. No one
  other than Netscape has the right to modify the terms applicable to
  Covered Code created under this License.
  
  6.3. Derivative Works

  If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you may
  only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code
  governed by this License), You must (a) rename Your license so that
  the phrases "Mozilla", "MOZILLAPL", "MOZPL", "Netscape", "MPL", "NPL"
  or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your license
  (except to note that your license differs from this License) and (b)
  otherwise make it clear that Your version of the license contains
  terms which differ from the Mozilla Public License and Netscape Public
  License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, Original Code
  or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A shall not of
  themselves be deemed to be modifications of this License.)

  7. Disclaimer of warranty

  Covered code is provided under this license on an "as is" basis,
  without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including,
  without limitation, warranties that the covered code is free of
  defects, merchantable, fit for a particular purpose or non-infringing.
  The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the covered code
  is with you. Should any covered code prove defective in any respect,
  you (not the initial developer or any other contributor) assume the
  cost of any necessary servicing, repair or correction. This disclaimer
  of warranty constitutes an essential part of this license. No use of
  any covered code is authorized hereunder except under this disclaimer.
  8. Termination

  8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
  automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure
  such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
  sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall
  survive any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their
  nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this License
  shall survive.

  8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
  claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer
  or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
  You file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:

     1. such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly
     infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
     Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
     shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate
     prospectively, unless if within 60 days after receipt of notice You
     either: (i) agree in writing to pay Participant a mutually
     agreeable reasonable royalty for Your past and future use of
     Modifications made by such Participant, or (ii) withdraw Your
     litigation claim with respect to the Contributor Version against
     such Participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable royalty
     and payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing by
     the parties or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, the rights
     granted by Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2
     automatically terminate at the expiration of the 60 day notice
     period specified above.

     2. any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's
     Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent,
     then any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections
     2.1(b) and 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first
     made, used, sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by
     that Participant. 

  8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant
  alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
  indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
  by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent
  infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
  granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken
  into account in determining the amount or value of any payment or
  license.

  8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, all
  end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers)
  which have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder
  prior to termination shall survive termination.
  
  9. Limitation of liability

  Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether tort
  (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall you, the initial
  developer, any other contributor, or any distributor of covered code,
  or any supplier of any of such parties, be liable to any person for
  any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any
  character including, without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill,
  work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other
  commercial damages or losses, even if such party shall have been
  informed of the possibility of such damages. This limitation of
  liability shall not apply to liability for death or personal injury
  resulting from such party's negligence to the extent applicable law
  prohibits such limitation. Some jurisdictions do not allow the
  exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
  this exclusion and limitation may not apply to you.
  
  10. U.S. government end users

  The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined in 48
  C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer software"
  and "commercial computer software documentation," as such terms are
  used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R.
  12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all
  U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code with only those rights
  set forth herein.
  
  11. Miscellaneous

  This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
  matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
  unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
  necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed by
  California law provisions (except to the extent applicable law, if
  any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions.
  With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen of,
  or an entity chartered or registered to do business in the United
  States of America, any litigation relating to this License shall be
  subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern
  District of California, with venue lying in Santa Clara County,
  California, with the losing party responsible for costs, including
  without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
  expenses. The application of the United Nations Convention on
  Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
  Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract
  shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this
  License.
  
  12. Responsibility for claims

  As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
  responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or indirectly,
  out of its utilization of rights under this License and You agree to
  work with Initial Developer and Contributors to distribute such
  responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing herein is intended or
  shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.

  13. Multiple-licensed code

  Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
  "Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means that the Initial
  Developer permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code under
  Your choice of the MPL or the alternative licenses, if any, specified
  by the Initial Developer in the file described in Exhibit A.
