NOTICE; LIMITED LICENSE GRANTS
Specification Lead hereby grants You a fully-paid, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, limited
license (without the right to sublicense), under the Specification Lead's applicable intellectual property
rights to view, download, use and reproduce the Specification only for the purpose of internal evaluation,
which shall be understood to include developing applications intended to run on an implementation of the
Specification provided that such applications do not themselves implement any portion(s) of the
Specification. The Specification contains proprietary information of the Specification Lead and may only
be used in accordance with the license terms set forth herein.
Subject to the reciprocity requirement set forth below Specification Lead also grants You a perpetual,
non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid-up, royalty free, irrevocable limited license (without the right to
sublicense) under any applicable copyrights or patent rights it may have in the Specification to create
and/or distribute an Independent Implementation of the Specification that: (a) fully implements the
Specification without modifying, subsetting or extending the public class or interface declarations whose
names begin with java or javax or their equivalents in any subsequent naming convention adopted by
Specification Lead through the Java Community Process, or any recognized successors or replacements
thereof; (b) implement all required interfaces and functionality of the Specification; (c) only include as
part of such Independent Implementation the packages, classes or methods specified by the Specification;
(d) pass the technology compatibility kit ("TCK") for such Specification; and (e) are designed to operate
on a Java platform which is certified to pass the complete TCK for such Java platform. For the purpose of
this agreement the applicable patent rights shall mean any claims for which there is no technically
feasible way of avoiding infringement in the course of implementing the Specification. Other than this
limited license, You acquire no right, license, title or interest in or to the Specification or any other
intellectual property rights of the Specification Lead.
You need not include limitations (a)-(e) from the 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 implementations of the Specification (and
products derived from them) by Your licensee that satisfy limitations (a)-(e) from the previous paragraph,
You may neither: (i) grant or otherwise pass through to Your licensees any licenses under Specification
Lead's applicable intellectual property rights; nor (ii) authorize Your licensees to make any claims
concerning their implementation's compliance with the Specification in question.
The license provisions concerning the grant of licenses hereunder shall be subject to reciprocity
requirement so that Specification Leads grant of licenses shall not be effective as to You if, with respect
to the Specification licensed hereunder, You (on behalf of yourself and any party for which You are
authorized to act with respect to this Agreement) do not make available, in fact and practice, to
Specification Lead and to other licensees of Specification on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory
terms a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license under such Your (and
such partys for which You are authorized to act with respect to this Agreement) patent rights which are or
4
would be infringed by all technically feasible implementations of the Specification to develop, distribute
and use an Independent Implementation of the Specification within the scope of the licenses granted
above by Specification Lead. However, You shall not be required to grant a license:
1. to a licensee not willing to grant a reciprocal license under its patent rights to You and to any
other party seeking such a license with respect to the enforcement of such licensee's patent claims
where there is no technically feasible alternative that would avoid the infringement of such
claims;
2. with respect to any portion of any product and any combinations thereof the sole purpose or
function of which is not required in order to be fully compliant with the Specification; or
3. with respect to technology that is not required for developing, distributing and using an
Independent Implementation.
Furthermore, You hereby grant a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable
covenant to Specification Lead that You shall not bring a suit before any court or administrative agency
or otherwise assert a claim that the Specification Lead has, in the course of performing its responsibilities
as the Specification Lead under JCP process rules, induced any other entity to infringe Your patent rights.
For the purposes of this Agreement: "Independent Implementation" shall mean an implementation of the
Specification that neither derives from the reference implementation to the Specification ("Reference
Implementation") source code or binary code materials nor, except with an appropriate and separate
license from licensor of the Reference Implementation, includes any of Reference Implementation's
source code or binary code materials.
This Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from Specification Lead if You fail to comply
with any material provision of or act outside the scope of the licenses granted above.
