69
702.1 Unmodified Code. You may use, reproduce, display, perform, internally

72unmodified copies of the Original Code, for commercial or non-commercial
73purposes, provided that in each instance:

103Code of Your Externally Deployed Modifications must be released under the
104terms set forth in this License, including the license grants set forth in
105Section 3 below, for as long as you Externally Deploy the Covered Code or
106twelve (12) months from the date of initial External Deployment, whichever is
107longer. You should preferably distribute the Source Code of Your Externally
108Deployed Modifications electronically (e.g. download from a web site).

120Contributor that the Covered Code does not infringe the patent or other
121intellectual property rights of any other entity. Apple and each Contributor
122disclaim any liability to You for claims brought by any other entity based on
123infringement of intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to
124exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, You hereby assume sole
125responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if

127distribute the Covered Code, it is Your responsibility to acquire that license
128before distributing the Covered Code.
129

In consideration of, and as a condition to, the licenses granted to You under this License, You hereby grant to any person or entity receiving or distributing Covered Code under this License a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license, under Your Applicable Patent Rights and other intellectual property rights (other than patent) owned or controlled by You, to use, reproduce, display, perform, modify, sublicense, distribute and Externally Deploy Your Modifications of the same scope and extent as Apple's licenses under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 above.

133
1345. Limitations on Patent License. Except as expressly stated in Section 2, no other patent rights, express or implied, are granted by Apple herein. Modifications and/or Larger Works may require additional patent licenses from Apple which Apple may grant in its sole discretion.

You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations and/or other rights consistent with the scope of the license granted herein ("Additional Terms") to one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf and as Your sole responsibility, and not on behalf of Apple or any Contributor. You must obtain the recipient's agreement that any such Additional Terms are offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold Apple and every Contributor harmless for any liability incurred by or claims asserted against Apple or such Contributor by reason of any such Additional Terms.
137
1387. Versions of the License. Apple may publish revised and/or new versions of this License from time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing version number.

NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY APPLE, AN APPLE AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OR ANY CONTRIBUTOR SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. You acknowledge that the Covered Code is not intended for use in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation, communication systems, or air traffic control machines in which case the failure of the Covered Code could lead to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage.
141
1429. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL APPLE OR ANY CONTRIBUTOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LICENSE OR YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE COVERED CODE, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, WHETHER UNDER A THEORY OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCTS LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF APPLE OR SUCH CONTRIBUTOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall Apple's total liability to You for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law) under this License exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00).
143
14410. Trademarks.

You agree not to use any Apple Marks in or as part of the name of products derived from the Original Code or to endorse or promote products derived from the Original Code other than as expressly 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.
145
14611. Ownership. Subject to the licenses granted under this License, each Contributor retains all rights, title and interest in and to any Modifications made by such Contributor. 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.
147
14812. Termination.
149
15012.1 Termination. This License and the rights granted hereunder will
151terminate:
152
153(a) automatically without notice from Apple if You fail to comply with any
154term(s) of this License and fail to cure such breach within 30 days of
155becoming aware of such breach;
156
157(b) immediately in the event of the circumstances described in Section
15813.5(b); or
159
160(c) automatically without notice from Apple if You, at any time during the
161term of this License, commence an action for patent infringement against
162Apple; provided that Apple did not first commence an action for patent
163infringement against You in that instance.
164
16512.2 Effect of Termination. Upon termination, You agree to immediately stop
166any further use, reproduction, modification, sublicensing and distribution of
167the Covered Code. All sublicenses to the Covered Code which have been properly
168granted prior to termination shall survive any termination of this License.
169Provisions which, by their nature, should remain in effect beyond the
170termination of this License shall survive, including but not limited to
171Sections 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.2 and 13. No party will be liable to any other
172for compensation, indemnity or damages of any sort solely as a result of
173terminating this License in accordance with its terms, and termination of this
174License will be without prejudice to any other right or remedy of any party.
175
17613. Miscellaneous.
177
17813.1 Government End Users. The Covered Code is a "commercial item" as defined
179in FAR 2.101. Government software and technical data rights in the Covered
180Code include only those rights customarily provided to the public as defined

182software is provided in accordance with FAR 12.211 (Technical Data) and 12.212

184252.227-7015 (Technical Data -- Commercial Items) and 227.7202-3 (Rights in

186all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code with only those rights set
187forth herein.
188
18913.2 Relationship of Parties. This License will not be construed as creating
190an agency, partnership, joint venture or any other form of legal association
191between or among You, Apple or any Contributor, and You will not represent to
192the contrary, whether expressly, by implication, appearance or otherwise.
193

195right to acquire, license, develop, have others develop for it, market and/or
196distribute technology or products that perform the same or similar functions
197as, or otherwise compete with, Modifications, Larger Works, technology or
198products that You may develop, produce, market or distribute.
199
20013.4 Waiver; Construction. Failure by Apple or any Contributor to enforce any
201provision of this License will not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of
202that or any other provision. Any law or regulation which provides that the
203language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter will not apply
204to this License.
205
20613.5 Severability. (a) If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction
207finds any provision of this License, or portion thereof, to be unenforceable,
208that provision of the License will be enforced to the maximum extent
209permissible so as to effect the economic benefits and intent of the parties,
210and the remainder of this License will continue in full force and effect. (b)
211Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law prohibits or restricts You
212from fully and/or specifically complying with Sections 2 and/or 3 or prevents
213the enforceability of either of those Sections, this License will immediately
214terminate and You must immediately discontinue any use of the Covered Code and
215destroy all copies of it that are in your possession or control.
216
21713.6 Dispute Resolution. Any litigation or other dispute resolution between
218You and Apple relating to this License shall take place in the Northern
219District of California, and You and Apple hereby consent to the personal
220jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state and federal courts within that
221District with respect to this License. The application of the United Nations
222Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly
223excluded.
224
22513.7 Entire Agreement; Governing Law. This License constitutes the entire
226agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This
227License shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of
228California, except that body of California law concerning conflicts of law.
