      2.4 Each Contributor represents that, to its knowledge, it has sufficient rights
      in and to each of its Contributions to grant the licenses set forth in Sections 2.1
      and 2.3. OSCI represents that, to its knowledge, it has sufficient rights in the
      OSCI Documentation to grant the license set forth in Section 2.2.

      2.5 Except as expressly stated in Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, Recipient
      receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any Contributor or
      OSCI under this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or
      otherwise. All rights in and to any Contribution not expressly granted under this
      Agreement are reserved.

      shall be subject to the rights expressly granted in this Agreement including, 
      without limitation, the licenses granted in Sections 2.1 and 2.3. Recipient shall 
      not remove or alter any proprietary notices contained in the Contributions 
      licensed to Recipient hereunder and shall reproduce and include such notices on 
      any copies of the Contributions made by Recipient in any media. 

      2.7 License to Marks.

            (a) OSCI shall retain all right, title and interest in and to the Marks 
	    worldwide, subject to the limited license granted to Recipient in this 
            Section 2.7. OSCI hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, royalty-free, 
            limited license to use the Marks solely in connection with its exercise of 
            the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement and to indicate that the 
            products being marketed by Recipient are compatible with, and meet the 
            standards of, OSCI Releases. All uses of the Marks shall be in 
            accordance with OSCI’s trademark usage policy set forth in Exhibit D. 

            (b) Recipient shall assist OSCI to the extent reasonably necessary to 
            protect and maintain the Marks worldwide, including, but not limited to, 
            giving prompt notice to OSCI of any known or potential infringement of the

            documents necessary to register the Marks, or as may be required by the 
            laws or rules of any country or jurisdiction. In its sole discretion, OSCI 
            may commence, prosecute or defend any action or claim concerning the 
            Marks. OSCI shall have the right to control any such litigation, and 
            Recipient shall fully cooperate with OSCI in any such litigation. OSCI shall 
            reimburse Recipient for the reasonable costs associated with providing 
            such assistance, except to the extent that such costs result from 
            Recipient’s breach of this Section 2.7. Recipient shall not commence any 
            action regarding the Marks without OSCI’s prior written consent. 

            (c) All goodwill with respect to the Marks shall accrue for the sole 
            benefit of OSCI. Recipient shall maintain the quality of any products, 
            associated packaging, collateral and marketing materials on which it uses 
            any of the Marks in a manner consistent with all terms, conditions and 
            requirements set forth in this Section 2.7 and at a level that meets or 
            exceeds Recipient’s overall reputation for quality and that is at least 
            commensurate with industry standards. 

     2.8 RECIPIENT UNDERSTANDS THAT ALTHOUGH EACH CONTRIBUTOR AND 
     OSCI GRANTS THE LICENSES SET FORTH HEREIN, NO ASSURANCES ARE 
     PROVIDED BY ANY CONTRIBUTOR OR OSCI THAT ANY OSCI RELEASE OR ANY 
     CONTRIBUTION, EITHER ALONE OR IN COMBINATION WITH ANY OTHER 
     CONTRIBUTION, DOES NOT INFRINGE THE PATENT OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL 
     PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY OTHER ENTITY. MOREOVER, NO ASSURANCES 
     ARE MADE THAT ANY CONTRIBUTION OF ONE CONTRIBUTOR DOES NOT 
     INFRINGE THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANOTHER CONTRIBUTOR. 
     EACH CONTRIBUTOR AND OSCI DISCLAIM ANY LIABILITY TO RECIPIENT FOR 
     CLAIMS BROUGHT BY ANY OTHER ENTITY BASED ON INFRINGEMENT OF 
     INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHERWISE. In addition, as a condition 
     to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby 
     assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights 
     needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to allow 
     Recipient to Distribute a computer program, then it is Recipient's responsibility to 
     acquire that license before Distributing such computer program. 

3. DESCRIPTION AND DEPOSIT OF CONTRIBUTIONS 

     3.1 To the extent Recipient wishes to become a Contributor by making a 
     Contribution, such Contributor shall:

            a copy of the License at http://www.systemc.org/. Software distributed by 
            Contributors under the License is distributed exclusively on an "AS IS" 
            basis, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, either express or implied. 
            See the License for the specific language governing rights and limitations 
            under the License." 


     3.2 OSCI may from time to time publish policies and procedures regarding the 
     contribution or depositing of Contributions as well as establish additional details 
     regarding the contribution process. Without limiting the foregoing, OSCI or the 
     administrators of the Website shall have the right to remove any Contribution 
     from the Website at any time. 

4. REQUIREMENTS OF DISTRIBUTION 

     4.1 A Recipient may choose to Distribute any Contribution or any compilation 
     of multiple Contributions (except for any Code Contributions) under its own 
     license agreement, provided that: 

            (a) Recipient complies with the terms and conditions of this 
            Agreement; 

            (b) as between Recipient and any other Contributor, Recipient 
            assumes all warranties and conditions, express and implied, and all 
            liability for damages arising out of its Distribution; and 

            (c) Recipient makes available to recipients of such Distribution the 
            Source Code for such Distributions, and inform them on how to obtain it in 
            a reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for 
            software exchange. 

     4.2 If a Recipient chooses to Distribute any Code Contribution or compilations 
      of Code Contributions then: 

            (a) such Code Contribution must be Distributed under this Agreement; 
            and 

            (b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of such 
            Code Contribution. 

     4.3 Each Recipient must include the following in a conspicuous location in the 
     Code Contribution so Distributed: 

            Copyright (c) 1996-{current year here}, by all Contributors. 
            All rights reserved. 

     4.4 In addition, each Recipient that creates and Distributes or otherwise 
     transfers a Modification whether or not such Modification has been deposited 
     pursuant to Section 3 must identify the originator of such Modification in a 
     manner that reasonably allows third parties to identify the originator of the 
     Modification. 


     4.5 A Recipient may choose to Distribute the OSCI Documentation under its 
     own license agreement, provided that Recipient complies with the terms and 
     conditions of this Agreement. Each Recipient must include the following in a 
     conspicuous location in the OSCI Documentation so Distributed or transferred: 

            Copyright (c) 1996-{current year here}, by Open SystemC 
            Initiative. All rights reserved. 

     In addition, each Recipient that creates and Distributes a modification or 
     Derivative work of the OSCI Documentation, whether or not such modification or 
     Derivative work has been contributed pursuant to a Copyright Agreement must 
     identify the originator of such modification or Derivative work in a manner that 
     reasonably allows third parties to identify the originator of the modification or 
     derivative work. 

5. INDEMNIFICATION 


Any Recipient which Distributes any Contribution and/or OSCI Release (a "Distributor") 
may accept certain responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the 
like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use of Contributions 
OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases, a Distributor shall Distribute such 
Contributions, OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases in a manner which does not 
create potential liability for the Contributors. Therefore each Distributor hereby agrees 
to defend and indemnify every Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against any 
losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising from claims, lawsuits and 
other legal actions brought by a third party against the Indemnified Contributor to the 
extent caused by the acts or omissions of such Distributor, including but not limited to 
the terms and conditions under which Distributor offered such Contributions, OSCI 
Documentation and/or OSCI Releases in connection with its Distribution thereof. The 
obligations in this Section 5 do not apply to any claims or Losses relating to any actual 
or alleged intellectual property infringement of any Contribution, OSCI Documentation or 
OSCI Release. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: (a) promptly notify 
the Distributor in writing of such claim, and (b) allow the Distributor to control, and 
cooperate with the Distributor in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations. 
The Indemnified Contributor may participate in the defense of any such claim at its own 
expense. 

For example, a Recipient might include a Contribution in a commercial product offering, 
Product X. That Recipient is then a Distributor. If that Distributor then makes 
performance claims, or offers warranties, support, or indemnity or any other license 
terms related to Product X, those performance claims, offers and other terms are such 
Distributor's responsibility alone. Under this Section 5, the Distributor would have to 
defend claims against the Contributors related to those performance claims, offers, and 
other terms, and if a court requires any Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the 
Distributor must pay those damages. 

6. NO WARRANTY 

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, ALL CONTRIBUTIONS, OSCI 
DOCUMENTATION AND OSCI RELEASES ARE PROVIDED EXCLUSIVELY 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. EACH RECIPIENT IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE 
APPROPRIATENESS OF ITS USE AND DISTRIBUTION OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI 
DOCUMENTATION AND OSCI RELEASE AND ASSUMES ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH 
ITS EXERCISE OF RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 
THE RISKS AND COSTS OF PROGRAM ERRORS, COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE 
LAWS, DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF DATA, PROGRAMS OR EQUIPMENT, AND 
UNAVAILABILITY OR INTERRUPTION OF OPERATIONS. THIS DISCLAIMER OR 
WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS AGREEMENT. NO USE OF 
ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI DOCUMENTATION OR OSCI RELEASE ARE AUTHORIZED 
HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER. 

7. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY 

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NONE OF THE RECIPIENTS, 
CONTRIBUTORS OR OSCI SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, 
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES 
(INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY 
THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT 
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR 
DISTRIBUTION OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, OSCI DOCUMENTATION OR OSCI RELEASE OR 
THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE 
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 

8. U.S. GOVERNMENT USE 

If Recipient is licensing any computer program on behalf of any unit or agency of the 
United States Government, then such computer program is commercial computer 
software, and, pursuant to FAR 12.212 or DFARS 227.7202 and their successors, as 
applicable, shall be licensed to the Government under the terms and conditions of this 
Agreement. 

9. PATENT CLAIMS 

If Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim, 
counterclaim or declaratory judgment claim in a lawsuit) alleging that any Contribution, 
OSCI Release or combination of Contributions (excluding combinations of any 
Contribution with other software or hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then 
the rights granted to Recipient by each Contributor under Section 2 shall terminate as of 
the date such litigation is filed. 

10. TERMINATION 

All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if Recipient fails to comply 
with any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement and does not cure such 
failure in a reasonable period of time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If 
such occurs, Recipient shall cease all use and Distribution of any Contributions of any 
other Contributor, OSCI Documentation and OSCI Releases based upon the rights 
granted to Recipient under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable. 
However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by 
Recipient relating to any Contributions shall survive such termination. 

11. LICENSE VERSIONS 

OSCI may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement from time to 
time. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a distinguishing version number. 
Any Contribution, OSCI Documentation or OSCI Release may always be Distributed 
subject to the version of the Agreement under which it was received. In addition, after a 
new version of the Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to Distribute any 
Contribution, OSCI Documentation or OSCI Release under the new version. No one 
other than OSCI, acting by a vote of at least seventy five percent (75%) of the members 
of its Board of Directors, has the right to modify this Agreement; provided that Exhibit B 
and Exhibit C may be amended as specifically set forth in Section 3.1(b), and Exhibit D 
may be amended as specifically set forth in Section 1.13.

executed electronically, by clicking on the “Accept” button, Recipient warrants that it 
agrees to all of the terms of this Agreement, that Recipient is authorized to enter into 
this Agreement, and that this Agreement is legally binding upon Recipient. If Recipient 
does not agree to be bound by this Agreement, then Recipient shall click the “Decline” 
button and Recipient shall not receive any rights from the Contributors nor shall 
Recipient download any Contributions, OSCI Documentation or OSCI Releases.

                             Trademark Usage Policy 

I. LIST OF MARKS 

     1. Open SystemC 

     2. Open SystemC Initiative 

     3. OSCI 

     4. SystemC 

     5. SystemC Initiative 

     6. All logos that incorporate the foregoing word marks 


II. PROPER USE OF MARKS 

Trademarks and service marks function as adjectives and generally should not be used as 
nouns or verbs. Accordingly, as often as possible, the Marks should be used as adjectives 
immediately preceding the generic noun that refers to the service in question. For example: 

             The SystemC® software 
             The OSCI® LRM 

No Possessives or Plurals. Since they are not nouns, the Marks should never be used in the 
possessive or plural forms. For example, it is not appropriate to write “SystemC’s software.” 

No Use as Verbs or as Puns. The Marks should never be used as verbs or as puns. 


III. PROPER ATTRIBUTION 

Trademark ownership is attributed in two ways, with the use of a symbol (TM, SM, ®) after the mark 
and with a legal legend, usually found at the end of a document following the copyright notice. 
Following are OSCI’s rules for symbols and legends to attribute the Marks: 

Symbols: 

Which Symbol Do I Use? 
The Marks generally function as trademarks rather than servicemarks. Unless you are 
specifically directed otherwise, please use the ® symbol after the Marks. 

Where Do I Place the ® Symbol? 
The ® symbol is placed immediately after the mark, either in superscript or subscript. 
 
When Do I Use the Symbol? 
The ® symbol is to be used after the Marks in the following instances: 
 
Most Prominent Uses: A ® symbol is required after prominent uses of the Marks, e.g., in the 
headlines and large print text of web pages, advertisements, other promotional materials and 
press releases, except where space limitations or specific style considerations prevent 
compliance with this requirement. 

First Use in Text: A ® symbol is required after the first use of each Mark in text, e.g. advertising 
copy or the body of press releases, even though the symbol may have already appeared in the 
headline or after another prominent use of the mark in the same document. 

All Logos: The ® symbol must appear after all logos incorporating the Marks. 

 
IV. Legends 

All Marks that appear on a web page or in a press release, advertisement or other written 
material (whether in print or electronic form) must be attributed in an appropriate legend. The 
legend may be presented in “mouseprint” but must be large enough to be read easily. Legends 
generally appear at the end of a document or the bottom of a web page but may be placed 
elsewhere, e.g. the inside cover of documentation. 

The OSCI Legend: The following legend should be used in all materials in which any of the 
Marks appear: 

[Insert the Marks] are trademarks or registered trademarks of Open SystemC Initiative, Inc. in 
the United States and other countries and are used with permission. 


V. MARKS NEVER COMBINED 

The Marks should never be combined with the marks of any business other than OSCI. The 
Marks should always appear visually separate from any other marks appearing in the same 
materials such that each mark creates a distinct commercial impression. It would, for instance, 
not be appropriate to superimpose the logo of another business over any OSCI logo. 
 

VI. LOGOS 

Logos incorporating the Marks can only be used in the format provided to you by OSCI for 
incorporation into your materials or web pages. The logos provided to you by OSCI cannot be 
modified in any way without OSCI’s prior written approval. Logos copied from OSCI web pages 
or other materials may not to be used. Please contact support@opensystemc.org to obtain 
electronic files containing the OSCI logos and to ask any questions regarding the logos.
