1. Wowza License Grant to You.  

a. Wowza grants You a revocable (only by Wowza and only as provided herein) worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license: 

i. under intellectual property rights (other than patent or trademark) Licensable by Wowza, to reproduce, modify, run, and distribute the Covered Code; and

b. For the avoidance of doubt and subject to Section 1.a.ii, above, Wowza grants You no license under Patent Claims infringed by the making, using, practicing, or importing of Modifications.  
 
c. This License applies to code to which Wowza has attached the notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.
 
d. Notwithstanding Section 1.a.ii above, no patent license is granted: 1) for code that You delete from the Original Code; 2) for Code that you separate from the Original Code; or 3) for any Modification of the Original Code. 
 
e. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights granted in this Section 1 grant you permission to make, run, market, and receive compensation for Covered Code, whether standing alone, or as a part of a software or service offering by You, provided you comply with this License and maintain this License's full effect.  
  
2. Contributor Grants.  
 
a. To the extent You are a Contributor, You hereby grant all Recipients a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license:

i. under intellectual property rights (other than patent or trademark) Licensable by Contributor, to reproduce, modify, run, and distribute the Contributor Version; and

3. Title; Reservation of Rights.  As between You and Wowza, Wowza retains all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in the Original Code. Wowza and the other Contributors, if applicable, reserve all rights not expressly granted to You hereunder, and no other licenses are granted or implied.  Wowza may license the Original Code, including Modifications incorporated therein, on different terms from those contained in this License.
 
4. Distribution Obligations. 

a. You will ensure that any Modifications that You create or to which You contribute are governed by the terms of this License. If You Convey such Modifications or resulting Covered Code (except as required in Section 5), You will do so solely under the terms of this License.

c. You will not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder.

5. Obligations to Provide Code to Wowza; Additional License Grants to Wowza.
 
a. You will provide Wowza with a complete copy of any Covered Code and related documentation for Modifications created or contributed by You, and will do so promptly following either a request by Wowza or the first time You Convey such Modifications.

6. Notices; Descriptions of Modifications Required.

b. You must duplicate the notice provided in Exhibit A in each file of the Source Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in a location where a user would be likely to look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s) You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You must also duplicate this License in any documentation for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership rights relating to Covered Code. 
 
c. If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to applicable statute, judicial order, or regulation, then this License does not terminate but: (a) You do not have any rights from Wowza pursuant to Section 1.a; (b) You do not have any rights from other Contributors pursuant to Section 2.a; and (c) You must not access, run, use, have made, reproduce, modify, distribute, or exploit the Covered Code.
 
7. License Versions.  
 
a. Wowza may publish a revised or new version of the License from time to time in its sole discretion without prior notice. Each version will be given a distinguishing version number. 
 
b. Subject to Wowza's right to terminate or revoke this License, once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that version. 

c. No one other than Wowza or its successors or assigns has the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code created under this License.

9. Termination.
 
a. This License and the rights granted to You hereunder will terminate automatically if You fail to comply with the terms herein.

You agree that, if you export or re-export the Covered Code or any modifications to it, You are responsible for compliance with the United States Export Administration Regulations and hereby agree to comply with the same, and to indemnify Wowza and all other Contributors for any liability incurred as a result.
