<h3>1. DEFINITIONS</h3>
<p>A. "Contributor" means Government Agency, as the developer of the Original Software, 
and any entity that makes a Modification. </p>
<p>B. "Covered Patents" mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor that are necessarily 
infringed by the use or sale of its Modification alone or when combined with the Subject 
Software. </p>
<p>C.  "Display" means the showing of a copy of the Subject Software, either directly or by 
means of an image, or any other device. </p>
<p>D. "Distribution" means conveyance or transfer of the Subject Software, regardless of 
means, to another. </p>
<p>E.  "Larger Work" means computer software that combines Subject Software, or portions 
thereof, with software separate from the Subject Software that is not governed by the terms of 
this Agreement. </p>
<p>F.  "Modification" means any alteration of, including addition to or deletion from, the 
substance or structure of either the Original Software or Subject Software, and includes 
derivative works, as that term is defined in the Copyright Statute, 17 USC 101.  However, the 
act of including Subject Software as part of a Larger Work does not in and of itself constitute a 
Modification. </p>
<p>G. "Original Software" means the computer software first released under this Agreement 
by Government Agency with Government Agency designation LAR-17460-1 and entitled 
DAVEtools, including source code, object code and accompanying documentation, if any.</p>
<p>H. "Recipient" means anyone who acquires the Subject Software under this Agreement, 
including all Contributors. </p>
<p>I. "Redistribution" means Distribution of the Subject Software after a Modification has 
been made. </p>
<p>J. "Reproduction" means the making of a counterpart, image or copy of the Subject 
Software. </p>
<p>K. "Sale" means the exchange of the Subject Software for money or equivalent value. </p>
<p>L. "Subject Software" means the Original Software, Modifications, or any respective parts 
thereof. </p>
<p>M. "Use" means the application or employment of the Subject Software for any purpose. </p>
<h3>2. GRANT OF RIGHTS </h3>
<p>A. Under Non-Patent Rights:  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each 
Contributor, with respect to its own contribution to the Subject Software, hereby grants to each 
Recipient a non-exclusive, world-wide, royalty-free license to engage in the following activities 
pertaining to the Subject Software: </p>
<ol>
  <li>Use </li>
  <li>Distribution </li>
  <li>Reproduction </li>
  <li>Modification </li>
  <li>Redistribution </li>
  <li>Display </li>
</ol>
<p>B. Under Patent Rights:  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each 
Contributor, with respect to its own contribution to the Subject Software, hereby grants to each 
Recipient under Covered Patents a non-exclusive, world-wide, royalty-free license to engage in 
the following activities pertaining to the Subject Software: </p>
<ol>
  <li>Use </li>
  <li>Distribution </li>
  <li>Reproduction </li>
  <li>Sale </li>
  <li>Offer for Sale </li>
</ol>
<p>C. The rights granted under Paragraph B. also apply to the combination of a Contributor's 
Modification and the Subject Software if, at the time the Modification is added by the 
Contributor, the addition of such Modification causes the combination to be covered by the 
Covered Patents.  It does not apply to any other combinations that include a Modification. </p>
<p>D. The rights granted in Paragraphs A. and B. allow the Recipient to sublicense those 
same rights.  Such sublicense must be under the same terms and conditions of this Agreement. </p>
<h3>3. OBLIGATIONS OF RECIPIENT</h3>
<p>A. Distribution or Redistribution of the Subject Software must be made under this 
Agreement except for additions covered under paragraph 3H. </p>
<ol>
  <li>Whenever a Recipient distributes or redistributes the Subject Software, a copy of this 
  Agreement must be included with each copy of the Subject Software; and </li>
  <li>If Recipient distributes or redistributes the Subject Software in any form other than 
source code, Recipient must also make the source code freely available, and must provide with 
each copy of the Subject Software information on how to obtain the source code in a 
reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange. </li>
</ol>

<p>B. Each Recipient must ensure that the following copyright notice appears prominently in 
the Subject Software: </p>

<blockquote style="font-size:12;">
<b>Copyright 2007 United States Government as represented 
by LAR-17460-1.  No copyright is claimed in the United States 
under Title 17, U.S. Code. All Other Rights Reserved. </b>
</blockquote>
<p>C. Each Contributor must characterize its alteration of the Subject Software as a 
Modification and must identify itself as the originator of its Modification in a manner that 
reasonably allows subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Modification.  In 
fulfillment of these requirements, Contributor must include a file (e.g., a change log file) that 
describes the alterations made and the date of the alterations, identifies Contributor as originator 
of the alterations, and consents to characterization of the alterations as a Modification, for 
example, by including a statement that the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from 
Original Software provided by Government Agency. Once consent is granted, it may not 
thereafter be revoked. </p>

<p>D. A Contributor may add its own copyright notice to the Subject
Software.  Once a copyright notice has been added to the Subject
Software, a Recipient may not remove it without the express permission
of the Contributor who added the notice. </p>

<p>E. A Recipient may not make any representation in the Subject
Software or in any promotional, advertising or other material that may
be construed as an endorsement by Government Agency or by any prior
Recipient of any product or service provided by Recipient, or that may
seek to obtain commercial advantage by the fact of Government Agency's
or a prior Recipient's participation in this Agreement.  </p>

<p>F. In an effort to track usage and maintain accurate records of the
Subject Software, each Recipient, upon receipt of the Subject
Software, is requested to register with Government Agency by visiting
the following website: </p>

<p style="margin-left:50px;"><a href="http://dscb.larc.nasa.gov/Products/SW_register/register.html"
style="text-decoration: underline">http://dscb.larc.nasa.gov/Products/SW_register/register.html</a></p>

<p>Recipient's name and personal information shall be used for
statistical purposes only. Once a Recipient makes a Modification
available, it is requested that the Recipient inform Government Agency
at the web site provided above how to access the Modification. </p>

<p>G. Each Contributor represents that that its Modification is believed to be Contributor's 
original creation and does not violate any existing agreements, regulations, statutes or rules, and 
further that Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this Agreement. </p>

<p>H. A Recipient may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity 
and/or liability obligations to one or more other Recipients of the Subject Software.  A 
Recipient may do so, however, only on its own behalf and not on behalf of Government 
Agency or any other Recipient.  Such a Recipient must make it absolutely clear that any such 
warranty, support, indemnity and/or liability obligation is offered by that Recipient alone.  
Further, such Recipient agrees to indemnify Government Agency and every other Recipient for 
any liability incurred by them as a result of warranty, support, indemnity and/or liability offered 
by such Recipient. </p>

<p>I. A Recipient may create a Larger Work by combining Subject
Software with separate software not governed by the terms of this
agreement and distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such
case, the Recipient must make sure Subject Software, or portions
thereof, included in the Larger Work is subject to this
Agreement. </p>

<p>J. Notwithstanding any provisions contained herein, Recipient is
hereby put on notice that export of any goods or technical data from
the United States may require some form of export license from the
U.S. Government.  Failure to obtain necessary export licenses may
result in criminal liability under U.S. laws.  Government Agency
neither represents that a license shall not be required nor that, if
required, it shall be issued.  Nothing granted herein provides any
such export license. </p>

<h3>4. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES; WAIVER AND 
INDEMNIFICATION</h3>

<p>A. No Warranty: THE SUBJECT SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT 
ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED, IMPLIED, OR 
STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY THAT THE 
SUBJECT SOFTWARE WILL CONFORM TO SPECIFICATIONS, ANY IMPLIED 
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, 
OR FREEDOM FROM INFRINGEMENT, ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SUBJECT 
SOFTWARE WILL BE ERROR FREE, OR ANY WARRANTY THAT 
DOCUMENTATION, IF PROVIDED, WILL CONFORM TO THE SUBJECT 
SOFTWARE. THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT, IN ANY MANNER, CONSTITUTE AN 
ENDORSEMENT BY GOVERNMENT AGENCY OR ANY PRIOR RECIPIENT OF 
ANY RESULTS, RESULTING DESIGNS, HARDWARE, SOFTWARE PRODUCTS OR 
ANY OTHER APPLICATIONS RESULTING FROM USE OF THE SUBJECT 
SOFTWARE.  FURTHER, GOVERNMENT AGENCY DISCLAIMS ALL 
WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES REGARDING THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE, IF 
PRESENT IN THE ORIGINAL SOFTWARE, AND DISTRIBUTES IT "AS IS." </p>

<p>B. Waiver and Indemnity:  RECIPIENT AGREES TO WAIVE ANY AND ALL 
CLAIMS AGAINST THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, ITS CONTRACTORS 
AND SUBCONTRACTORS, AS WELL AS ANY PRIOR RECIPIENT.  IF RECIPIENT'S 
USE OF THE SUBJECT SOFTWARE RESULTS IN ANY LIABILITIES, DEMANDS, 
DAMAGES, EXPENSES OR LOSSES ARISING FROM SUCH USE, INCLUDING 
ANY DAMAGES FROM PRODUCTS BASED ON, OR RESULTING FROM, 
RECIPIENT'S USE OF THE SUBJECT SOFTWARE, RECIPIENT SHALL INDEMNIFY 
AND HOLD HARMLESS THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, ITS 
CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS, AS WELL AS ANY PRIOR RECIPIENT, 
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.  RECIPIENT'S SOLE REMEDY FOR ANY 
SUCH MATTER SHALL BE THE IMMEDIATE, UNILATERAL TERMINATION OF 
THIS AGREEMENT. </p>
<h3>5. GENERAL TERMS </h3>
<p>A. Termination:  This Agreement and the rights granted hereunder will terminate 
automatically if a Recipient fails to comply with these terms and conditions, and fails to cure 
such noncompliance within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of such noncompliance.  Upon 
termination, a Recipient agrees to immediately cease use and distribution of the Subject 
Software.  All sublicenses to the Subject Software properly granted by the breaching Recipient 
shall survive any such termination of this Agreement. </p>

<p>B. Severability: If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or
unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this Agreement.
</p>

<p>C. Applicable Law:  This Agreement shall be subject to United States federal law only for 
all purposes, including, but not limited to, determining the validity of this Agreement, the 
meaning of its provisions and the rights, obligations and remedies of the parties.</p>

<p>D. Entire Understanding:  This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and 
agreement of the parties relating to release of the Subject Software and may not be superseded, 
modified or amended except by further written agreement duly executed by the parties. </p>

<p>E. Binding Authority:  By accepting and using the Subject Software under this 
Agreement, a Recipient affirms its authority to bind the Recipient to all terms and conditions of 
this Agreement and that that Recipient hereby agrees to all terms and conditions herein. </p>
