                    additions to the Program;
                      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:

                          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.
            "Contributor" means IBM and any other entity that distributes the Program.
            "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.
            "Original Program" means the original version of the software
            accompanying this Agreement as released by IBM, including source
            code, object code and documentation, if any.
            "Program" means the Original Program and Contributions.
            "Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this
            Agreement, including all Contributors.

          GRANT OF RIGHTS
        nd)M	TPK g6
              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.

              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.
               &,9~>s;_z8ng1&
              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.
               e
              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.

          REQUIREMENTS
            A Contributor may choose to distribute
            the Program in object code form under its own license agreement,
            provided that:

        
              it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
               JK@l](F
              its license agreement:
                >eOtQyD
                    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;
                     @)UM_Ef-(>
                    effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability
                      for damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental and
                      consequential damages, such as lost profits;
                     $nl3;p_kI$&S
                    states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are
                      offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other party; and
                     )cB		N)kd"Bo"M	
                    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.
            When the Program is made available in source code form:
            S
              it must be made available under this Agreement; and
               P5
              a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the Program.
            Each Contributor must include the following in a conspicuous location in the Program:
            Copyright (C) 1996, 1999 International Business Machines Corporation and others. All Rights Reserved.
            In addition, 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.

          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 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.

          NO WARRANTY
            EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS
            PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
            KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
            WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY
            OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely
            responsible for determining the appropriateness of using and
            distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with its
            exercise of rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to
            the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with applicable
            laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, and
            unavailability or interruption of operations.

          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.

          GENERAL
            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.
            IBM may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement
            from time to time. 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. No one
            other than IBM has the right to modify this Agreement. 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.
