VI. Licensing Declaration

The Patent Holder states that its position with respect to licensing any patent claims contained in the patent(s) or patent application(s) disclosed above that would necessarily be infringed by implementation of the technology required by the relevant IETF specification ("Necessary Patent Claims"), for the purpose of implementing such specification, is as follows(select one licensing declaration option only):

Licensing See Text Below for Licensing Declaration
Licensing information, comments, notes, or URL for further information

The Patent Holder is prepare to grant - on the basis of reciprocity for the
above IETF specification - a license to an unrestricted number of applicants on
a worldwide, non-discriminatory basis and on reasonable term and conditions to
make, use and sell implementations of the above IETF specification. Negotiations
are left to the parties concerned, and are performed outside the IETF.

The word "free", as used herein, does not mean that the Patent Holder is
waiving all of its rights with respect to the essential patent. Rather, "free"
refers to the issue of monetary compensation; i.e., that the Patent Holder will
not seek any monetary compensation as part of the licensing agreement (whether
such compensation is called a royalty, a one-time licensing fee, etc.). However,
while the Patent Holder in this situation is committing to not charging any
monetary amount, the Patent Holder is still entitled to require that the
implementer of the IETF specification sign a license agreement that contains
other reasonable terms and conditions such as those relating to governing law,
field of use, reciprocity, warranties, etc.

The word "reciprocity", ss used herein, means that the Patent Holder shall only
be required to license any prospective licensee if such prospective licensee
will commit to license its essential patent(s) or essential patent claim(s) for
implementation of the same IETF specification for free under reasonable terms
and conditions.

Note: The individual submitting this template represents and warrants that he or she is authorized by the Patent Holder to agree to the above-selected licensing declaration.
