In relation to an IETF standard based on the ZRTP Specification ("ZRTP
Technology"), Philip Zimmermann (together with his successors and assignees,
"PRZ") will grant a royalty-free, non-exclusive license with reciprocity to
Qualified Parties to use the ZRTP Technology solely to the extent necessary to
implement and practice such IETF standards that are in compliance with the ZRTP
Specification. As used herein, Qualified Parties means a party who has not,
does not and will not assert, in litigation or otherwise, including in licensing
discussions, any patent or other intellectual property right against PRZ of any
nature, or assert the same against any licensee of the libZRTP SDK in connection
with such licensee's implementation or practice of any IETF standard
incorporating the ZRTP Technology. Any license to a Qualified Party shall
terminate at once if such party: (a) asserts a patent or other intellectual
property right against PRZ or any licensee of the libZRTP SDK as set forth
above; or (b) if applicable, fails to properly implement the disclosure flag
described in the ZRTP Specification in a truthful manner. PRZ will grant
non-exclusive licenses to Non-Qualified Parties on reasonable and reciprocal
terms and conditions. For further information, see
