| 7 | +Thank you for your interest in IBM’s ember-cli-jsdoc project (“the Project"). |
| 8 | +In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions |
| 9 | +from any person or entity, IBM must have a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) |
| 10 | +on file that has been signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the |
| 11 | +license terms below. This license is for your protection as a Contributor as |
| 12 | +well as the protection of IBM and its users; it does not change your rights to |
| 13 | +use your own Contributions for any other purpose. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to submit |
| 16 | +Contributions to the Project, to authorize Contributions submitted by its |
| 17 | +designated employees to the Project, and to grant copyright and patent licenses |
| 18 | +thereto. |

| 45 | + |
| 46 | + "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity |
| 47 | + authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement |
| 48 | + with IBM. For legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and |
| 49 | + all other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under |
| 50 | + common control with that entity are considered to be a single |
| 51 | + Contributor. For the purposes of this definition, "control" means |
| 52 | + (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or |
| 53 | + management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or |
| 54 | + (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding |
| 55 | + shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + "Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other original |
| 58 | + works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B, as well as |
| 59 | + any original work of authorship, including any modifications or |
| 60 | + additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by |
| 61 | + You to IBM for inclusion in, or documentation of, the Project managed |
| 62 | + by IBM (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" |
| 63 | + means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to |
| 64 | + IBM or its representatives, including but not limited to communication |
| 65 | + on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue |
| 66 | + tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, IBM for the |
| 67 | + purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding |
| 68 | + communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated |
| 69 | + in writing by You as "Not a Contribution." |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +2. Grant of Copyright License. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | + Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, |
| 74 | + You hereby grant to IBM and to recipients of software |
| 75 | + distributed by IBM a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, |
| 76 | + no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to |
| 77 | + reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, |
| 78 | + publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions |
| 79 | + and such derivative works. |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +3. Grant of Patent License. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | + Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, |
| 84 | + You hereby grant to IBM and to recipients of software |
| 85 | + distributed by IBM a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, |
| 86 | + no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as |
| 87 | + stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use, |
| 88 | + offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, |
| 89 | + where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable |
| 90 | + by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) |
| 91 | + alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work to |
| 92 | + which such Contribution(s) were submitted. If any entity institutes |
| 93 | + patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a |
| 94 | + cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your |
| 95 | + Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes |
| 96 | + direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses |
| 97 | + granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or |
| 98 | + Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above |
| 101 | + license. |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | + You represent further that each employee of the Corporation |
| 104 | + designated on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent written |
| 105 | + modification to that Schedule) is authorized to submit |
| 106 | + Contributions on behalf of the Corporation. |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original |
| 109 | + creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, |
| 112 | + except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide |
| 113 | + support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by |
| 114 | + applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your |
| 115 | + Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS |
| 116 | + OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without |
| 117 | + limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, |
| 118 | + MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, |
| 121 | + You may submit it to IBM separately from any |
| 122 | + Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and |
| 123 | + of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited |
| 124 | + to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which |
| 125 | + you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as |
| 126 | + "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]". |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | +8. It is your responsibility to notify IBM when any change |
| 129 | + is required to the list of designated employees authorized to submit |
| 130 | + Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the Corporation's |
| 131 | + Point of Contact with IBM. |
