1. DEFINITIONS
"Contribution" means:
a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial code and documentation distributed under this
Agreement, and
where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and are distributed by that
particular Contributor. A Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the Program
by such Contributor itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's behalf. Contributions do not include
additions to the Program which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in conjunction with
the Program under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not derivative works of the Program.
2
Notice
"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor which are necessarily infringed by the use
or sale of its Contribution alone or when combined with the Program.
"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this Agreement, including all Contributors.
2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive,
worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display,
publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, and such
derivative works, in source code and object code form.
b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive,
worldwide, royalty-free patent license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, import
and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if any, in source code and object code
form. This patent license shall apply to the combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at the
time the Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such
combination to be covered by the Licensed Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any other
combinations which include the Contribution. No hardware per se is licensed hereunder.
c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the licenses to its Contributions set
forth herein, no assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the
patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability
to Recipient for claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property
rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each
Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if
any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the
Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before distributing the Program.
d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if
any, to grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.
3. REQUIREMENTS
3
Notice
A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form under its own license agreement,
provided that:
i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all warranties and conditions, express and
implied, including warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and implied warranties or
conditions of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose;
ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability for damages, including direct,
indirect, special, incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;
iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are offered by that Contributor alone
and not by any other party; and
iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such Contributor, and informs licensees
how to obtain it in a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for software
exchange.
b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the Program.
Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices contained within the Program.
Each Contributor must identify itself as the originator of its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably
allows subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.
4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
Commercial distributors of software may accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business
partners and the like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of the Program, the
Contributor who includes the Program in a commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does
not create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a Contributor includes the Program in a
commercial product offering, such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend and
4
Notice
indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any losses, damages and costs
(collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party against
the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in
connection with its distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The obligations in this
section do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property
infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly notify the Commercial
Contributor in writing of such claim, and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with
the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. The Indemnified
Contributor may participate in any such claim at its own expense.
For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial product offering, Product X. That
Contributor is then a Commercial Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance
claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance claims and warranties are such
Commercial Contributor's responsibility alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to
defend claims against the other Contributors related to those performance claims and warranties, and if a court
requires any other Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor must pay those
damages.
5. NO WARRANTY
6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR ANY
CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN
CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE)
ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE
EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES.
7. GENERAL
5
Notice
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, and without further action by the
parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision
valid and enforceable.
If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with respect to a patent applicable to software
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that Contributor to
such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, if
Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit)
alleging that the Program itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or hardware)
infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as
of the date such litigation is filed.
All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it fails to comply with any of the material terms
or conditions of this Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming
aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to
cease use and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, Recipient's obligations
under this Agreement and any licenses granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and
survive.
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this Agreement, but in order to avoid inconsistency the
Agreement is copyrighted and may only be modified in the following manner. The Agreement Steward
reserves the right to publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from time to time. No one
other than the Agreement Steward has the right to modify this Agreement. IBM is the initial Agreement
Steward. IBM may assign the responsibility to serve as the Agreement Steward to a suitable separate entity.
Each new version of the Agreement will be given a distinguishing version number. The Program (including
Contributions) may always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement under which it was
received. In addition, after a new version of the Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to distribute
the Program (including its Contributions) under the new version. Except as expressly stated in Sections 2(a)
and 2(b) above, Recipient receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any Contributor under
this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not
expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and the intellectual property laws of the
United States of America. No party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement more
than one year after the cause of action arose. Each party waives its rights to a jury trial in any resulting
litigation.

warranty or condition, BUT ONLY AS TO DEFECTS DISCOVERED DURING THE PERIOD OF THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY (NINETY DAYS). AS TO ANY DEFECTS DISCOVERED AFTER THE
NINETY-DAY PERIOD, THERE IS NO WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND. Some
states/jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty or condition lasts, so the above
limitation may not apply to you. Any supplements or updates to the Software, including without limitation,
any (if any) service packs or hot fixes provided to you after the expiration of the ninety day Limited Warranty
period are not covered by any warranty or condition, express, implied or statutory. LIMITATION ON

(â•œExclusion of Incidental, Consequential and Certain Other Damagesâ•š) are also incorporated into this
Limited Warranty. Some states/jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This Limited Warranty
gives you specific legal rights. You may have other rights which vary from state/jurisdiction to
state/jurisdiction. YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Microsoftâ•Žs and its suppliersâ•Ž entire liability and
your exclusive remedy for any breach of this Limited Warranty or for any other breach of this EULA or for

Warranty is void if failure of the Software has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, abnormal use or
a virus. Any replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or
thirty (30) days, whichever is longer, and Microsoft will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide your
remedy within a commercially reasonable time of your compliance with Microsoftâ•Žs warranty remedy
procedures. Outside the United States or Canada, neither these remedies nor any product support services

3. Distribution Obligations.
♦ 3.1 Application of License. The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are
governed by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2. The Source Code
version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms of this License or a future version
of this License released under Section 6.1, and You must include a copy of this License with every
copy of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code
version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder.
However, You may include an additional document offering the additional rights described in Section
3.5.
♦ 3.2 Availability of Source Code. Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute
must be made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License either on the same media
as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom
you made an Executable version available; and if made available via Electronic Distribution
Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became
available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification has been
made available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code version
remains available even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
♦ 3.3 Description of Modifications. You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to
contain a file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and the date of any
change. You must include a prominent statement that the Modification is derived, directly or
indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the Initial
Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or related
documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
♦ 3.4 Intellectual Property Matters.
◊ (a) Third Party Claims. If Contributor has actual knowledge that a license under a third party's
intellectual property rights is required to exercise the rights granted by such Contributor under
Sections 2.1 or 2.2, Contributor must include a text file with the Source Code distribution
titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim and the party making the claim in sufficient detail
that a recipient will know whom to contact. If Contributor obtains such knowledge after the
Modification is made available as described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly modify
the LEGAL file in all copies Contributor makes available thereafter.
◊ (b) Contributor API's. If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming
interface and Contributor has actual knowledge of patent licenses which are reasonably
necessary to implement that API, Contributor must also include this information in the
22
Notice
LEGAL file.
◊ (c) Representations. Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to Section 3.4(a)
above, Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications are Contributor's original
creation(s) and/or Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this
License.
♦ 3.5 Required Notices. You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source Code. If it
is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source Code file due to its structure, then You must
include such notice in a location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be most likely to
look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s) You may add your name as a
Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You must also duplicate this License in any
documentation for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership rights relating
to Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or
liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You may do so only on
Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You must make it
absolutely clear that any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You
alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability
(excluding any liability arising from intellectual property claims relating to the Covered Code)
incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or
liability terms You offer.
♦ 3.6 Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if
the requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include a notice
stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License,
including a description of how and where You have fulfilled the obligation of Section 3.2. The notice
must be conspicuously included in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the Covered Code. You may distribute
the Executable version of Covered Code or ownership rights under a license of Your choice, which
may contain terms different from this License, provided that You are in compliance with the terms of
this License and that the license for the Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the
recipient's rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute
the Executable version under a different license You must make it absolutely clear that any terms
which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial Developer or any
Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any
liability (excluding any liability arising from intellectual property claims relating to the Covered
Code) incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer.
♦ 3.7 Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code not
governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such a
case, You must make sure the requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation. If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the
terms of this License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute, judicial order, or
regulation then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description must be included in the LEGAL file
23
Notice
described in Section 3.4 and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the extent
prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary
skill to be able to understand it.
5. Application of this License. This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
♦ 6.1 New Versions. The Storage Networking Industry Association (the "SNIA") may publish revised
and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing
version number.
♦ 6.2 Effect of New Versions. Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that version. You may also choose to
use such Covered Code under the terms of any subsequent version of the License published by the
SNIA. No one other than the SNIA has the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code
created under this License.
♦ 6.3 Derivative Works. If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you may only do
in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code governed by this License), You must
(a) rename Your license so that the phrases "Storage Networking Industry Association," "SNIA," or
any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your license (except to note that your license differs
from this License) and (b) otherwise make it clear that Your version of the license contains terms
which differ from the SNIA Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, Original
Code or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A shall not of themselves be deemed to be
modifications of this License.)
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON
AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE
OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS
WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU
(NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF
ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF
WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY
COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
8. TERMINATION.
♦ 8.1 This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically if You fail to comply
with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within a reasonable time after becoming aware of the
breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall survive any termination
24
Notice
of this License. Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this
License shall survive.
♦ 8.2 If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment
actions) against Initial Developer or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
You file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
◊ (a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then any
and all rights granted by such Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively, unless if within 60 days
after receipt of notice You either: (i) agree in writing to pay Participant a mutually agreeable
reasonable royalty for Your past and future use of Modifications made by such Participant, or
(ii) withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to the Contributor Version against such
Participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable royalty and payment arrangement are not
mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, the
rights granted by Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at
the expiration of the 60 day notice period specified above.
♦ 8.3 If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant alleging that such Participant's
Contributor Version directly or indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent infringement litigation, then the reasonable
value of the licenses granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken into account
in determining the amount or value of any payment or license.
♦ 8.4 In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, all end user license agreements
(excluding distributors and resellers) which have been validly granted by You or any distributor
hereunder prior to termination shall survive termination.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL
THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE,
SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY
DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE
LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR
MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF
SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR
PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
