135
1369. Liability.
137
1389.1 Infringement. If any portion of, or functionality implemented by, the
139Original Code becomes the subject of a claim of infringement, Apple may, at
140its option: (a) attempt to procure the rights necessary for Apple and You to
141continue using the Affected Original Code; (b) modify the Affected Original
142Code so that it is no longer infringing; or (c) suspend Your rights to use,
143reproduce, modify, sublicense and distribute the Affected Original Code until
144a final determination of the claim is made by a court or governmental
145administrative agency of competent jurisdiction and Apple lifts the suspension
146as set forth below. Such suspension of rights will be effective immediately
147upon Apple's posting of a notice to such effect on the Apple web site
148that is used for implementation of this License. Upon such final determination
149being made, if Apple is legally able, without the payment of a fee or royalty,
150to resume use, reproduction, modification, sublicensing and distribution of
151the Affected Original Code, Apple will lift the suspension of rights to the
152Affected Original Code by posting a notice to such effect on the Apple web
153site that is used for implementation of this License. If Apple suspends Your
154rights to Affected Original Code, nothing in this License shall be construed
155to restrict You, at Your option and subject to applicable law, from replacing
156the Affected Original Code with non-infringing code or independently
157negotiating for necessary rights from such third party.
158
1599.2 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL APPLE BE LIABLE FOR
160ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR
161RELATING TO THIS LICENSE OR YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE ORIGINAL CODE, OR
162ANY PORTION THEREOF, WHETHER UNDER A THEORY OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT
163(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCTS LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF APPLE HAS
164BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE
165FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY. In no event shall Apple's
166total liability to You for all damages under this License exceed the amount of
167fifty dollars ($50.00).
168
16910. Trademarks. This License does not grant any rights to use the trademarks or trade names "Apple", "Apple Computer", "Mac OS X", "Mac OS X Server" or any other trademarks or trade names belonging to Apple (collectively "Apple Marks") and no Apple Marks may be used to endorse or promote products derived from the Original Code other than as permitted by and in strict compliance at all times with Apple's third party trademark usage guidelines which are posted at http://www.apple.com/legal/guidelinesfor3rdparties.html.
170
17111. Ownership. Apple retains all rights, title and interest in and to the Original Code and any Modifications made by or on behalf of Apple ("Apple Modifications"), and such Apple Modifications will not be automatically subject to this License. Apple may, at its sole discretion, choose to license such Apple Modifications under this License, or on different terms from those contained in this License or may choose not to license them at all. Apple's development, use, reproduction, modification, sublicensing and distribution of Covered Code will not be subject to this License.
172
17312. Termination.
174
17512.1 Termination. This License and the rights granted hereunder will
176terminate:

182(b) immediately in the event of the circumstances described in Section

194this License. Provisions which, by their nature, should remain in effect
195beyond the termination of this License shall survive, including but not
196limited to Sections 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.2 and 13. Neither party will be
197liable to the other for compensation, indemnity or damages of any sort solely

225
226develop, produce, market or distribute.
227
22813.4 Waiver; Construction. Failure by Apple to enforce any provision of this

240from fully and/or specifically complying with Sections 2 and/or 3 or prevents
241the enforceability of either of those Sections, this License will immediately
242terminate and You must immediately discontinue any use of the Covered Code and
243destroy all copies of it that are in your possession or control.
