“submitted” means any form of electronic, verbal, or written |

Section II: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS |
|
|
|
Both copyright and patent grants may apply to the Artifact. The Artifact |

govern the use of the Artifact in the event that Section II is held |
|
unenforceable or inapplicable. |

|
|
2. Grant of Copyright License. Conditioned upon compliance with Section |
|
III below and subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each |
|
Contributor hereby grants to You a worldwide, non-exclusive, |
|
royalty-free copyright license to reproduce (for internal purposes), |
|
use, publicly display, and publicly perform the Artifact. |
|

3. Grant of Patent License. Conditioned upon compliance with Section III |
|

worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in |
|
this paragraph) patent license to make, use, sell, offer to sell, and |

|
claims licensable by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by |
|
their Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s) |
|
with the Artifact to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You |
|
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim |
|
or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Artifact and/or a |
|
Contribution incorporated within the Artifact constitutes direct or |
|
contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to |
|
You under this License in connection with the Artifact shall terminate |
|
as of the date such litigation is asserted or filed. |
|
|
|
Licensor and Contributor each have the right to grant the licenses |
|
above. |
|

|
no rights in the Output You generate using an Artifact. If the Artifact |
|

|
subsequent uses, and no use of the Output can contravene any provision |
|
as stated in this License. |

|
for damages, including any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or |
|
consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this |
|
License or out of the use or inability to use the Artifact (including |
|
but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer |
|
failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or |
|
losses), even if such Contributor has been advised of the possibility of |
|
such damages. |
|
|
|
11. If any provision of this License is held to be invalid, illegal or |
