<H2>7. GateD Copyright and Licensing </H2>

<H3>Background</H3>

<P>The GateDaemon Project at Merit at the University of Michigan (&quot;Merit&quot;)
produces the GateD software, an implementation of several routing protocols
as a daemon to run on various versions of Unix. GateDaemon was originated
and developed through release 3.0 by Cornell University and its collaborators
with funding from the National Science Foundation and other sources and
with important contributions of code, testing, and documentation from a
number of organizations. Merit has developed release 4.0 as part of the
Merit GateD consortium. Merit provides copies of GateD to Commercial members
for :</P>

<UL>
<LI>a) Unlimited binary distribution for <B>GateD Version 4,</B> also called
GateD-Unicast, in commercial products, and </LI>

<LI>b) Source code for <B>GateD Version 4,</B> also called GateD-Unicast,
to be distributed to development teams at Member's development or research
site. Source code will be delivered during the 1 year term of membership.
</LI>
</UL>

<H2><FONT SIZE=+1>Redistribution of GateD</FONT></H2>

<P>Those who wish to redistribute GateD may do so under this agreement.
Anyone wishing to may transfer GateD or any part of GateD to any third
party. Third parties are not authorized to sublease or further redistribute
GateD or any part of GateD. Third parties wishing to do so may be referred
to Merit for information concerning memberships and licensing.</P>

<P>Members are required to submit to Merit for distribution to the user
community certain modifications and enhancements which they create or are
created on their behalf using GateD. Such distribution of member-developed
enhancements is for the benefit of the GateD user community and subject
only to the GateD source file restrictions and, if applicable, to the appropriate
GateD Redistribution License. </P>

<P>The organizations which have shared in the ongoing development of GateD
have done so in part based on their confidence that others in the user
community will contribute on the same terms. The requirement to share GateD
enhancements, however, may conflict with an organization's effort to develop
products for commercial use which may overlap GateD in function. The attached
version of the GateD Redistribution License defines in greater detail the
enhancements or modifications which are required to be returned for the
benefit of the user community. The agreement also provides for certain
cases which may be legitimately excluded from the requirement to return
enhancements. GateD enhancements which entail third party proprietary materials,
for example, are not required to be returned. Further, a provision has
been added to allow a monetary contribution in lieu of return of particular
enhancements. This provision allows GateD to be utilized in contexts which
may become proprietary to a member while ensuring that such use contributes
to the continued development, enhancement, support, and public availability
of the software. </P>

<P>Please note that Merit's continued ability to make GateD available to
the research and academic community at the current fee structure is contingent
upon the University's incurring no additional liability from member's use
of the software. Accordingly, the attached GateD Redistribution License
holds Merit harmless from liability arising from member's use of GateD
under the agreement. As written, the scope of liability protection reserved
by Merit is limited to only that which would not have arisen but for a
member's use of GateD. In addition, the indemnification of Merit is further
qualified to exclude liability resulting from University negligence. </P>

<P>The rights conveyed to Members under this agreement for <B>GateD Version
4</B> (also called GateD-Unicast) are non-transferable. </P>

<P>Lead Institution provides copies of GateD upon request to Members and
use as permitted by the copyright and subject to other restrictions contained
in the GateD source files. </P>

<P>Those who wish to redistribute GateD may do so by becoming a member
and executing a GateD Membership and Redistribution License with the Lead
Institution. </P>

<H2>8. GateD Redistribution </H2>

<P>The Regents of the University of Michigan on behalf of its operating
unit, Merit, (Merit) agrees to grant and does hereby grant to _____________
(Commercial Member) a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, worldwide,
revocable license to use, reproduce, modify and redistribute the software
entitled &quot;<B>Gateway Daemon, Release 4</B>&quot; (GateD) with Member's
products, subject to the following terms: </P>

<UL>
<LI>8-1 Commercial Member may only redistribute &quot;<B>GateD-Unicast
binaries</B>&quot; as defined in section 3-a in this Commercial Member's
commercial products. </LI>

<LI>8-2 Commercial Member's use of <B>GateD Version 4</B> (GateD-Unicast)
source code may only be redistributed as specified in section 3-b. All
redistribution shall be subject to all copyright and other restrictions
contained in the <B>GateD Version 4</B> source files. Such copyright notices
and other restrictions as they currently appear in the source files are
listed in Appendix A, attached, which shall be a part of this Agreement
for all purposes. </LI>

<LI>8-2 Each redistribution of <B>GateD Version 4</B> (GateD-Unicast) source
code to the Commercial Member's sites hereunder shall include the copyright
and other restrictions as listed in Appendix A, as well as the credit legends
contained in the GateD source files. </LI>

<LI>8-3 Upon specific, prior, written approval of Merit, the Commercial
Member may grant third parties the non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free,
worldwide, revocable license to use, reproduce, modify and redistribute
<B>GateD Version 4 </B>binaries, provided that the Commercial Member shall
require any such sublicensee to abide by the terms of provision 8-5 of
this Agreement, either via Member or directly to Merit, and that such sublicense
shall be subject to all copyright and other restrictions contained in the
GateD Version 4 source files. </LI>

<LI>8-4 Any documentation which is included as part of Member's redistribution
of <B>Version 4 of GateD </B>(GateD-Unicast) shall include the following
statement: </LI>

<PRE>        &copy; 1995 The Regents of the University of Michigan all rights reserved.
        Gate Daemon was originated and developed through release 3.0 by Cornell
        University and its collaborators.
</PRE>

<LI>8-5 Versions of <B>GateD Version 4</B> or related documentation that
are to be redistributed by Member in any altered form shall be labeled
or otherwise marked as modified versions of <B>GateD-Unicast. </B></LI>

<LI>8-6 The Commercial Members shall use reasonable efforts to provide
Merit with copies of all modifications and enhancements made by Commercial
Member or on Commercial Member's behalf (Commercial Member's Enhancements)
to GateD or related documentation, for a period of three years from the
date of execution of this Agreement. Member hereby grants Merit a non-exclusive,
transferable, royalty-free, worldwide, irrevocable license to use, reproduce,
modify and redistribute such Commercial Member Enhancements as part of
current and future releases of GateD without accounting to Commercial Member.
Commercial Member Enhancements which are subject to such Merit license
shall be further defined as follows: </LI>

<LI>8.6.1 Changes to GateD software or documentation made by Commercial
Member or on Commercial Member's behalf. </LI>

<LI>8.6.2 Documentation prepared by Commercial Member or on its behalf
to accompany Commercial Member's redistribution of GateD. </LI>

<LI>8.6.3 Software modules made by Commercial Member or on its behalf that
are closely bound with GateD, or that use facilities of GateD such as protocol
task support, or that extend or modify core GateD facilities. </LI>

<LI>8.6.3.1 In a Unix environment, modules linked into GateD and executed
as part of the daemon are considered closely bound. </LI>

<LI>8.6.3.2 If a software module executes separately from GateD (for example,
as another daemon or as part of the kernel) and communicates with GateD
via the routing socket or a new, defined communications interface, then
the module need not be considered a Commercial Member Enhancement subject
to Merit license. However, a new interface added to GateD to support such
a module, together with documentation sufficient to facilitate its general
use, would be a Commercial Member Enhancement subject to Merit license.
</LI>

<LI>8.6.3.3 Even though Unix concepts such as linking, sockets, daemon,
etc., may not apply or have the same names in non-Unix environments, a
corresponding distinction shall be made between software which is closely
bound and uses GateD facilities (and is thus subject to Merit license)
and software which uses a narrowly defined interface to communicate with
GateD but executes separately (and thus is not subject to Merit license).
</LI>

<LI>8.6.4 A particular Commercial Member Enhancement shall not be subject
to Merit license and thus need not be returned if such Commercial Member
Enhancement: </LI>

<LI>8.6.4.1 is specific to unique hardware or software environments proprietary
to Commercial Member and is essentially useless outside such proprietary
environment, or </LI>

<LI>8.6.4.2 consists of or derives from software used by Commercial Member
under license from a third party and the license granted by Commercial
Member to Merit under this Agreement would violate the terms of Commercial
Member's license with such third party, or </LI>

<LI>8.6.4.3 is considered proprietary to Commercial Member, and Commercial
Member chooses to make a monetary contribution to the ongoing maintenance
and development of GateD in lieu of the license granted to Merit under
this Agreement. Commercial Member shall pay Merit $50,000.00 for each Commercial
Member Enhancement where Commercial Member elects not to convey to Merit
the license to which Commercial Member Enhancements would otherwise be
subject pursuant to this Agreement. </LI>

<LI>8.6.5 Commercial Member shall notify Merit in writing of each Commercial
Member Enhancement which Commercial Member plans to include in a redistribution
of GateD but which Commercial Member feels ought not be subject to Merit
license. Such notice should give justification why such Merit license ought
not apply. In response to Commercial Member's request to provide payment
in lieu of Merit license pursuant to: </LI>

<P>8.6.4.3, above, Merit shall issue to Commercial Member a modification
to this Agreement waiving the Merit license in the particular Commercial
Member Enhancement. The payment specified in 8.6.4.3 shall become due upon
execution of such amendment to this Agreement. </P>

<LI>8.7 While it is Merit's intention to continue to support GateD software,
Merit is under no obligation to do so. </LI>

<LI>8.8 Merit makes no representation as to the suitability of GateD for
any purpose. GATED IS PROVIDED &quot;AS IS&quot; AND WITHOUT EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. </LI>

<LI>8.9 Commercial Member agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Merit and Cornell University from any loss, claim, damage or liability
of any kind, including attorney's fees and court costs, arising out of
or in connection with any redistribution or other use of GateD by Commercial
Member under this Agreement, except to the extent that such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises from the negligence of Merit. Merit agrees to
provide Commercial Member with prompt notification of any such claims and
to cooperate fully in any investigation or litigation. </LI>

<LI>8.10 This Agreement may be canceled by Merit and the license conveyed
hereunder revoked in the event of Commercial Member's failure to comply
with the Agreement terms. Such cancellation shall be by written notice
to Commercial Member stating the reason(s) therefore. Upon Commercial Member's
request and at Merit's option, Merit may grant Commercial Member a specified
time in which to correct Commercial Member's failure to comply. Merit's
right to cancel this Agreement shall be in addition to any right Merit
may have by law or equity for relief, including injunctive relief, for
Commercial Member's failure to comply with the Agreement terms. </LI>
</UL>

<H2>9. Proprietary Information </H2>

<P>The Consortium exists to continue development of GateD in an open, collaborative,
non-proprietary environment in order to ensure its continued broad applicability
and availability to the Internet community. </P>

<P>Accordingly, all Proprietary Information including proprietary research,
trade secrets or other confidential or sensitive information should not
be disclosed by Members under this Agreement nor in any way become embodied
in or restrict the use of GateD related software or Consortium materials.
</P>

<H2>10. Intellectual Property </H2>

<P>The Consortium has been created to foster broad collaboration in the
implementation of routing protocols. However, the Consortium may lead to
interest in new areas of research or application. If so, such activities
shall be pursued via separate agreements in order to establish the necessary
collaborative and financial terms among the interested parties. </P>

<P>Discoveries which may be subject to intellectual property protection
are not anticipated to arise from the Consortium activities under this
Agreement. As a result, and to facilitate the freest possible exchange
of information among Members, this Agreement conveys no intellectual property
rights between the Lead Institution and Members. </P>

<H2>11. Staff Agreements </H2>

<P>Each Member shall, as a condition of its participation, represent and
warrant that it has or shall obtain, prior to the commencement of Consortium
activities under this Agreement, appropriate agreements with its employees/students
or others who may participate in Consortium activities sufficient to ensure
compliance with all the terms of this Agreement. </P>

<H2>12. Term </H2>

<P>The Agreement shall become effective upon execution of this Agreement
and shall continue in force for additional one-year periods, subject to
Member's payment of annual membership fees at the level established for
each membership year. </P>

<P>Member may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days prior written
notice to the Lead Institution. The Lead Institution may terminate this
Agreement upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Member. In the event
of termination by Lead Institution, Member shall be refunded a pro-rata
share of any fees paid for membership periods not concluded as of notice
of termination. Upon such termination, all Member obligations and benefits
shall cease. </P>

<H2>12. Notices</H2>

<P>All notices shall be in writing and effective upon receipt. Notices
shall be sent to the following addresses: </P>
