The Libvecpf Community Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License

Agreement ("Agreement")

In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with

Contributions from any person or entity made for the benefit of the

Libvecpf Community, a Contributor License Agreement ("CLA") must be on

file that has been signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement to

the license terms below. This license is for your protection as a

Contributor as well as the protection of the Libvecpf Maintainer,

Libvecpf Community, and its users; it does not change your rights to

use your own Contributions for any other purpose.

This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to

submit Contributions to the Libvecpf Community, to authorize

Contributions submitted by its designated employees to the Libvecpf

Community, and to grant copyright and patent licenses thereto.

If you have not already done so, please complete and send a scanned

copy of this CLA via email to the maintainer at:

Please read this document carefully before signing and keep a copy for

your records.

You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your

present and future Contributions submitted to the Libvecpf Community.

Except for the license granted herein to the Libvecpf Community, You

reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.

1. Definitions.

"You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity

authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement. For

legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other

entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control

with that entity are considered to be a single Contributor. For the

purposes of this definition, "control" means (i) the power, direct or

indirect, to cause the direction or management of such entity,

whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent

(50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial

ownership of such entity.

"Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other original

works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B, as well as

any original work of authorship, including any modifications or

additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by

You to the Libvecpf Community for inclusion in, or documentation of,

any of the products owned or managed by members of the Libvecpf

Community (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,

"submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written

communication sent to members of the Libvecpf Community, including but

not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code

control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or

on behalf of, the Libvecpf Community for the purpose of discussing and

improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously

marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a

Contribution."

"Libvecpf Community" shall mean International Business Machines

Corporation and other Contributors and users of Libvecpf. Accepted

Contributions will be made available to the Libvecpf Community at

large through an Internet repository of the maintainer's choosing.

2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of

this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Libvecpf Community a perpetual,

worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable

copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly

display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your

Contributions and such derivative works.

3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of

this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Libvecpf Community a perpetual,

worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except

as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use,

offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where

such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You

that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by

combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work to which such

Contribution(s) were submitted. If any entity institutes patent

litigation against You or any other entity (including a cross-claim or

counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that Your Contribution, or the

Work to which You have contributed, constitutes direct or contributory

patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity

under this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as

of the date such litigation is filed.

4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above

license. You represent further that each employee of the Corporation

designated on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent written

modification to that Schedule) is authorized to submit Contributions

on behalf of the Corporation.

5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original

creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). You

represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete details

of any third-party license or other restriction (including, but not

limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which You are

personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your

Contributions.

6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,

except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide

support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by

applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions

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.

7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation,

You may submit it to the Libvecpf Community separately from any

Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and of

any license or other restriction (including, but not limited to,

related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which You are

personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on

behalf of a third-party: [named here]".

8. It is Your responsibility to notify the Libvecpf Maintainer when any

change is required to the list of designated employees authorized to

submit Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the

Corporation's Point of Contact with the Libvecpf Community.

9. You agree that your signature, as received by e-mail, will

constitute an "original" signature of this Agreement.
