Additional Grant of Patent Rights Version 2
|
||
|
||
"Software" means the Zstandard software distributed by Facebook, Inc.
|
||
|
||
Facebook, Inc. ("Facebook") hereby grants to each recipient of the Software
|
||
("you") a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, irrevocable
|
||
(subject to the termination provision below) license under any Necessary
|
||
Claims, to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, and otherwise
|
||
transfer the Software. For avoidance of doubt, no license is granted under
|
||
Facebook’s rights in any patent claims that are infringed by (i) modifications
|
||
to the Software made by you or any third party or (ii) the Software in
|
||
combination with any software or other technology.
|
||
|
||
The license granted hereunder will terminate, automatically and without notice,
|
||
if you (or any of your subsidiaries, corporate affiliates or agents) initiate
|
||
directly or indirectly, or take a direct financial interest in, any Patent
|
||
Assertion: (i) against Facebook or any of its subsidiaries or corporate
|
||
affiliates, (ii) against any party if such Patent Assertion arises in whole or
|
||
in part from any software, technology, product or service of Facebook or any of
|
||
its subsidiaries or corporate affiliates, or (iii) against any party relating
|
||
to the Software. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Facebook or any of its
|
||
subsidiaries or corporate affiliates files a lawsuit alleging patent
|
||
infringement against you in the first instance, and you respond by filing a
|
||
patent infringement counterclaim in that lawsuit against that party that is
|
||
unrelated to the Software, the license granted hereunder will not terminate
|
||
under section (i) of this paragraph due to such counterclaim.
|
||
|
||
A "Necessary Claim" is a claim of a patent owned by Facebook that is
|
||
necessarily infringed by the Software standing alone.
|
||
|
||
A "Patent Assertion" is any lawsuit or other action alleging direct, indirect,
|
||
or contributory infringement or inducement to infringe any patent, including a
|
||
cross-claim or counterclaim.
