		PARTY RIGHTS. YOU AGREE THAT YOU BEAR THE ENTIRE RISK
		IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE AND DISTRIBUTION OF ANY
		AND ALL COVERED CODE OR SPECIFICATIONS UNDER THIS
		LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE OR SPECIFICATIONS
		IS AUTHORIZED EXCEPT SUBJECT TO AND IN CONSIDERATION
		FOR THIS DISCLAIMER.

		party based on infringement of intellectual property
		rights. Original Contributor represents that, to its
		knowledge, it has sufficient copyrights to allow You
		to use and distribute the Reference Code as herein
		permitted and You represent that, to Your knowledge,
		You have sufficient copyrights to allow each Licensee
		and Original Contributor to use and distribute Your

		payment of a fee or royalty, to reinstate Your rights
		to the Affected Materials to the full extent
		contemplated hereunder. Upon such determination,
		Original Contributor will lift the suspension by
		posting a notice to such effect on the Technology
		Site. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent
		You, at Your option and expense, and subject to
		applicable law and the restrictions and
		responsibilities set forth in this License and any
		Supplements, from replacing Reference Code in Affected
		Materials with non-infringing code or independently
		negotiating, without compromising or prejudicing
		Original Contributor’s position, to obtain the rights
		necessary to use Affected Materials as herein
		permitted.

		3. Disclaimer. ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTOR’S LIABILITY TO YOU
		FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THIS LICENSE OR ANY
		SUPPLEMENT HERETO, WHETHER FOR BREACH OR TORT, IS
		LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS (US

		INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
		CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING
		OUT OF THIS LICENSE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
		LOSS OF PROFITS, USE, DATA OR ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE OF
		Sun Solaris Source Code (FR) License 8 December 4,
		2000 ANY SORT), HOWEVER IT ARISES AND ON ANY THEORY OF
		LIABILITY WHETHER OR NOT ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTOR HAS BEEN
		ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE AND
		NOTWITHSTANDING FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF
		ANY REMEDY.

	D. TERMINATION.

	You may terminate this License at any time by notifying
	Original Contributor in writing.  All Your rights will
	terminate under this License if You fail to comply with any of
	the material terms or conditions of this License and do not
	cure such failure in a reasonable period of time after
	becoming aware of such noncompliance.

	If You institute patent litigation against a Licensee with
	respect to a patent applicable to Licensee Code, then any
	patent licenses granted by such Licensee to You under this
	License shall terminate as of the date such litigation is
	filed. In addition, if You institute patent litigation against
	any Licensee or Original Contributor alleging that Reference
	Code, Technology or Technology Specifications infringe Your
	patent(s), then the rights granted to You under Section III.A
	above will terminate.

	Upon termination, You must discontinue all uses and
	distribution of Licensee Code, except that You may continue to
	use, reproduce, prepare derivative works of Your Modifications
	(without the benefit of any license arising from this License)
	for purposes other than to implement functionality designated
