AppendixE. License Conditions
b)Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more
thanyour cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the
correspondingsource code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarilyused for software interchange; or,
c)Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code.
(Thisalternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object
codeor executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Thesource code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an
executablework, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associatedinterface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
executable.However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is
normallydistributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on)
ofthe operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
Ifdistribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then
offeringequivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source
code,even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5.You may not copy, modify,sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this
License.Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
automaticallyterminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
fromyou under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
6.You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However,nothing else grants you
permissionto modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if
youdo not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Program),you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributingor modifying the Program or works based on it.
7.Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically
receivesa license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms
andconditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted
herein.You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
8.If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not
limitedto patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that
contradictthe conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you
cannotdistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations,then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license
wouldnot permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or
indirectlythrough you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
fromdistribution of the Program.
Ifany portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of
thesection is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
Itis not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to
contestvalidity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
softwaredistribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generouscontributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
applicationof that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software
throughany other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
Thissection is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this
License.
