DEFINITIONS + +a. "LICENSEE" refers to the person, organisation or company, to whom the +licenses are granted under this license agreement. + +b. The term "SOFTWARE" refers to IAIK Java Crypto Software in any form +(source code, object code or other) including documentation.

"IAIK Java Crypto Software" means either IAIK-JCE, iSaSiLk or any +other Java-based Crypto-Software development kit which usually consists +of source code (if applicable; for source licences only), Java byte code +or any other form of object code. The Software and additional tools are +distributed in documentation, manuals, user guides, sample application +code, tools - including any revisions, patches and updates delivered or +downloaded by the LICENSEE. + +d. "IAIK Java Crypto Software Runtime Modules" means the runtime object +code modules provided with, or derived from, an IAIK-Java-Crypto +Software Development Kit, which are usually distributed as a +Java-Archive in JAR or ZIP-Format, or in any other format suitable for +use by application programmes or other software. + +e. "IAIK-Crypto Software based Application" means any computer programme +created by the LICENSEE using any of the IAIK-Toolkits, with the +exception of server software, which is considered as a different +category. + +f. "Server software" means IAIK-Crypto Software based applications run +or published on a server (like but not limited to a web server). +Examples for server software are applets, midlets, servlets, CGI-scripts +or software that is run on a server. + +g.

"DERIVED SOFTWARE" refers to software (excluding any of our SOFTWARE) +in any form (source code, object code or other) that uses the IAIK Java +Crypto Software Runtime Modules.

"ACCEPTED LICENSE" means the following licenses: + +j1. GPL Version 2, June 1991 (http: //www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl.html). + +j2.

GRANTING of LICENCES Stiftung SIC grants free licenses of the +SOFTWARE for development of free of charge open source software. The +SOFTWARE may be distributed bundled with the free of charge open source +software in binary form only. The type of open source development is +generally unrestricted; the only exception is a product that contains or +is an API or a service of which most of the functionality is provided by +the SOFTWARE. The derived product must not offer features that are +similar to that of the SOFTWARE. This means, this license does not allow +developing a product that contains or is a wrapper around the SOFTWARE. + +The LICENSEE and his licensees are granted a non-exclusive, +non-transferable license to run and redistribute the IAIK Java Crypto +Software Runtime Modules in unmodified, binary form under the following +conditions. + + * The LICENSEE and his licensees are not permitted to charge any + royalties or fees for DERIVED SOFTWARE. + + * The LICENSEE of "IAIK Java Crypto Software Runtime Modules", has to + make the source code of his product publicly available under an + ACCEPTED LICENSE. + + * The LICENSEE is further hereby obliged and authorized to bind his + licensees to all these conditions. + +If LICENSEE licenses DERIVED SOFTWARE under any other free software +licensing scheme that is similar to an ACCEPTED LICENSE, it may be +possible to grant a free license. Stiftung SIC will decide on this +individually after inspecting the intended use and license conditions. + +This free license shall NOT be construed or otherwise interpreted as any +kind of express or implied representation that this SOFTWARE is +licensable under an ACCEPTED LICENSE or any free license other than the +one laid out in this document. + +3. LIMITATIONS for all LICENCES: LICENSEES must not attempt to reverse +engineer, decompile, disassemble, reverse, translate or in any other +manner decode the computer programmes in the IAIK-Toolkit in order to +derive the source code there from. + +ATTENTION: THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT DOES NOT INCLUDE LICENSING OF THE +INCLUDED ALGORITHMS, when appropriate.

The +implementation of the Camellia cipher algorithm core has been provided +by NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) under BSD licence +terms +(see http://jce.iaik.tugraz.at/sic/sales/patent_issues_algorithms). + +4.
