76+
copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work

(an example is provided in the Appendix below).
78+
79+
"Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
80+
form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
81+
editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
82+
represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
83+
of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
84+
separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
85+
the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
86+
87+
"Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

106+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
107+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
108+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
111+
112+
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of

118+
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
119+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
120+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
121+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
122+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
123+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
124+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
125+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
126+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
127+
128+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
129+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
130+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
131+
meet the following conditions:
132+
133+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
134+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
135+
136+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
137+
stating that You changed the files; and
138+
139+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
140+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
141+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
142+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
143+
the Derivative Works; and
144+
145+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
146+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
147+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
148+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
149+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
150+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
151+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
152+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
153+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
154+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
155+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
156+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
157+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
158+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
159+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
160+
as modifying the License.
161+
162+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
163+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
164+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
165+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
166+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
167+
the conditions stated in this License.
168+
169+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
170+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
171+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
172+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
173+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
174+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
175+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
176+
177+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
178+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
179+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
180+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
181+
182+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
183+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
184+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
185+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
186+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
187+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
188+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
189+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
190+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
191+
192+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
193+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
194+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
195+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
196+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
197+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
198+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
199+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
200+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
201+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
202+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
203+
204+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
205+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
206+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
207+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
208+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
209+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
210+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
211+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
212+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
213+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
