Licensee may use the Source Code of the Shared Part of the Java Runtime
Interpreter to develop Product(s), Value Added Open Packages, and
Licensee-implemented modifications to the Platform Dependent Part, but if
it uses such Source Code, it must use all of it without modification.
Except as specified in Section 2.1b(iii) and 2.1(d), Licensee shall have
no right to distribute the Source Code of the Technology or of Derivative
Works, whether alone or as incorporated with Product(s), Value Added Open
Packages, Licensee-implemented modifications to the Platform Dependent
Part or Upgrades.
b. Porting.
(i) Licensee may port the Platform Dependent Part to platforms other
than those specified in Exhibit C.
(ii) SUN will work with Licensee to identify any changes which are
necessary to the Shared Part of the Java Runtime Interpreter to allow
porting it to other platforms, and SUN will use reasonable efforts to make
changes necessary to the code for the Shared Part.
(iii) Licensee may sublicense and deliver a copy of the Source Code
of the Technology to third parties only in association with the delivery
and sublicensing of Licensee Products, and solely for the purposes of
enabling such third party to port or localize Products for Licensee. Any
such sublicense shall be made subject to terms and conditions relating to
ownership, use, compatibility, and confidentiality of the Technology
substantially similar to those contained herein.
c. Bug Fixes. Licensee will inform Sun promptly, and no later than it
informs any third party, of any bugs identified in the Technology, and to
the extent that Licensee elects to correct such bugs, Licensee will make
such bug fixes promptly available to Sun free of all restrictions as they
are implemented.
d. In the event that SUN distributes a development environment for
commercial use, certain libraries of which are made available in Source
Code form, free of charge to licensees by way of an electronically
executable license via the Internet, Licensee may distribute such
unmodified Source Code integrated into commercial quality Product(s), but
only in a manner consistent with SUN's then-current business practices and
subject to SUN's then-current licensing terms.
2.2 Binary Code License
a. SUN hereby grants and Licensee hereby accepts a non-exclusive,
worldwide, fully paid up license to use an unlimited number of copies of
the Technology in binary form, for Licensee's internal use during the term
of this Agreement.
b. Worldwide Distribution. Licensee may distribute the Product(s), Value
Added Open Packages, Licensee-implemented modifications to the Platform
Dependent Part, Upgrades and associated Documentation provided to Licensee
by SUN in binary form worldwide and may use such distribution channels as
Licensee deems appropriate, including distributions, resellers, dealers
and sales representatives (collectively, "Distributors"), provided,
however, that such Distributors shall not modify the Technology or any
portions thereof, and shall be obligated to abide by the relevant terms in
this Agreement governing use, distribution, compatibility, and
confidentiality.
2.3 Documentation
a. SUN hereby grants to Licensee, and Licensee hereby accepts, under
SUN's Intellectual Property Rights, a non-exclusive, non-transferable
license (i) to use and distribute the unmodified Documentation, (ii) to use
and modify the Documentation to create technically accurate unaltered
subsets of the documentation which shall include all the relevant SUN
3
4
copyrights, notices and marks, (iii) to translate the Documentation into
other languages, and (iv) to distribute such translated or modified
Documentation in connection with distribution of the Product(s). Licensee
may also use a pointer to the SUN Documentation on the Internet in
connection with distribution of the Product(s).
2.4 Compatibility
a. Java Compatibility
(i) Initially, the AAPI shall be that which is reflected in the Technology
as identified in Exhibit A, by the bytecode specification in the
Documentation entitled "Java Virtual Machine Specification" and by the
Java language specification in the Documentation entitled "Java Language
Specification." Subsequently, the AAPI may be modified by SUN and SUN will
give Licensee written notice thereof.
(ii) From time to time, SUN will make publicly available test suites at no
cost for validating that the portion of Licensee's Product which interprets
Java bytecodes complies with the then-current Specification of the AAPI as
defined by SUN as of the date of that test suite ("Java Test Suite"). SUN
shall not publish more than four (4) versions of such Java Test Suites in
any one (1) calendar year, without the consent of Licensee, which consent
shall not be unreasonably delayed or denied. SUN shall use reasonable
efforts to review any changes to such Java Test Suites as much in advance
as possible with Licensee, but failure of SUN to do so shall not constitute
a breach of this Agreement and shall not invalidate any such Java Test
Suite published by SUN. Changes to Java Test Suites to correct errors shall
not be counted against the limitation to four (4).
(iii) Each revision of a Product released by Licensee must pass the Java
Test Suite that was current one hundred twenty (120) days before First
Customer Shipment of such Product. Licensee shall not release or
distribute to any third party the portion of Licensee's Product that
interprets Java bytecodes, which does not successfully pass such Java Test
Suite.
(iv) If Licensee provides SUN with written notice of the existence of a
bug in a current Java Test Suite, then Licensee shall be released from
compatibility with the minimum portion of such Java Test Suite necessary
to avoid the impact of such bug, until such time as Sun provides to
Licensee a corrected or new Java Test Suite.
(v) Branding and Trademarks. Licensee shall use a logo specified by SUN
that indicates compatibility with the Java Test Suites (the "Java
Compatibility Logo") in a trademark manner on all Licensee Product(s)
distributed hereunder. The terms and conditions governing the parties'
agreement as to trademarks, logos, and branding shall be governed by the
Trademark License entered into herewith, attached as Exhibit F hereto, and
incorporated by reference herein.
b. Compiler Compatibility
(i) Any Product(s) that performs a compiling function must continue to
compile the complete Java Language as described in the Java Language
Specification, and be able to generate fully-interpretable
machine-independent bytecodes for the Java Virtual Machine.
(ii) From time to time, SUN will make publicly available test suites at no
cost for validating that the portion of Licensee's Product which compiles
the Java Language complies with the then-current Java Language
specification and bytecode specification as defined by SUN as of the date
of that test suite ("Java Language Test Suite"). Without the consent of
Licensee, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or denied, SUN
shall not supply more than four (4) versions of such Java Language Test
Suites in any one (1) calendar year. SUN shall use reasonable efforts to
review any changes to such Java Language Test Suites as much in advance as
possible with Licensee, but failure of SUN to do so shall not constitute a
breach of
4
5
this Agreement and shall not invalidate any such Java Language Test Suite
supplied by SUN. Changes to Java Language Test Suites to correct errors
shall not be counted against the limitation to four (4).
c. Upgrades. Licensee shall promptly announce and ship Product(s) based
on Upgrades to the Technology as delivered by SUN during the term of this
Agreement. Licensee shall correct any incompatibility with the AAPI, as
determined by the applicable Java or Java Language Test Suite, which
arises from integrating such Upgrade, whether such incompatibility is
detected before or after FCS of the affected Product(s). If Licensee
discovers that a new Product or a new version of a Product is incompatible
before the Product enters beta stage, Licensee shall not ship such
incompatible Product(s) without first correcting the incompatibility.
2.5. Value Added Open Packages
(i) Licensee shall deliver to SUN free of all restrictions the
specification for the application programming interface for Value Added
Open Package as early as is reasonably possible but in no event later than
the date on which it first provides such specification or an
implementation thereof to any third party. Included in such specification
shall be an appropriate test suite sufficiently detailed to allow SUN and
third parties to produce implementations compatible with the
specification. Licensee shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to
clarify and correct the specification or the test suite upon written
request by SUN and failure to do so within sixty (60) days after such
request shall constitute breach of this Agreement.
(ii) Licensee shall notify SUN as soon as it has made any general
disclosure (i.e., not subject to confidentiality obligations) of such
specification, or first releases a Product implementing such
specification, after which SUN shall have no obligation of confidentiality
whatsoever with respect to such specification. Licensee agrees that it
will take no steps whatsoever to prevent SUN or any third party from
creating implementations based on such specification, provided that such
implementations do not violate Licensee's patents, copyrights (except that
Licensee agrees that it will not enforce copyright or patent claims that
relate to interface or compatibility) or trade secrets in the
implementation of the Value Added Open Packages.
(iii) Licensee shall confine the names of all Value Added Open Packages to
names beginning with "COM.Licensee" or such other convention as SUN may
reasonably require and shall not modify or extend the public class or
interface declarations whose names begin with "java", "COM.sun" or their
equivalents in any subsequent naming convention. Licensee will make
reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that other commercial software
packages which it redistributes conform to this convention.
(iv) Licensee hereby grants and SUN hereby accepts a non-exclusive,
worldwide, fully-paid-up license to use an unlimited number of copies of
the Value Added Open Packages, in binary form, for SUN's internal use,
such use including but not limited to demonstration rights. Licensee
agrees to reasonably negotiate in good faith with SUN the terms of a
commercial license for the source code of the Value Added Open Packages.
The parties agree that the fees and other terms and conditions of this
Agreement are a reasonable standard against which to judge such a license
on a proportionate basis comparing the scope and complexity of the portion
of the Value Added Open Package being licensed to the scope and complexity
of the Technology.

EXHIBIT D
CONFIDENTIAL DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
(to be attached)

18
EXHIBIT E
DOCUMENT TYPE DEFINITION
In order to ensure interoperability between all Java compliant browsers, SUN
needs to define the exact notation of applets in HTML documents. The format of
the APPLET tag is chosen to be implementation language independent and SGML
compliant. SGML compliance is important if the APPLET tag is to be accepted as
part of the HTML standard in the future.
Example:
The applet tag has the following attributes:
CODEBASE The base url of the applet. The applet's code is located relative to
this URL. If this attribute is not specified, it defaults to the
document's URL.
CODE The file in which the applet is located. This file is relative to
base url of the applet, it cannot be absolute.
ALT Alternate text which can be displayed by text only browsers.
NAME The symbolic name of the applet. This name can be used by applets in
the same page to locate each other.
WIDTH Required attribute which specifies the initial width of the applet in
pixels.
HEIGHT Required attribute which specifies the initial height of the applet in
pixels.
ALIGN The alignment of the applet, similar to the img tag.
VSPACE The vertical space around the applet, similar to the img tag.
HSPACE The horizontal space around the applet, similar to the img tag.
Note that the position of the applet in the page is determined by the width,
height, align, vspace and hspace attributes just like the img tag.
Applets can access the above attributes using the getParameter0 method call
defined in the Applet class. All attribute/parameter names are automatically
folded to lower case. Applets that require parameters in addition to the
predefined ones need to use the param tag. It is unfortunately not legal in SGML
for a tag to have an arbitrary list of attributes. That is why additional applet
parameters explicitly using the PARAM tag have to be named. For example:
In addition to the ALT tag, Licensee can include additional text and markup
before the applet end tag. Java compliant browsers will ignore this text, but
browsers that do not understand the applet tag will display it instead of the
applet. For example:
18
19
If Licensee were using a Java enabled browser, Licensee would see an animation
instead of this static image.
Below is the formal SGML DTD for the APPLET and PARAM tags.

This Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into by and between SUN
MICROSYSTEMS, INC. ("Sun") and SYMANTEC CORPORATION ("Symantec") this 9th day of
September, 1999
Symantec and Sun entered into: (i) a Technology License and Distribution
Agreement dated December 11, 1995, as amended (the "TLDA"); and (ii) a letter
agreement dated March 28, 1997 granting Sun the right to distribute Symantec's
Just-in-Time Compiler (the "Letter Agreement"); and
The parties hereto desire to amend the TLDA and the Letter Agreement on the
terms and conditions noted herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this
Agreement shall have the same meaning as defined in the TLDA.
2. The TLDA is hereby amended to provide that Symantec shall have for the
term of the TLDA, a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable right
and license with respect to the Java Applet Environment Version 1.2
and Upgrades thereto (collectively, the "JAE"), to: access, use [*]
the source code of the Shared Part of the Java Runtime Interpreter,
while maintaining compatibility as provided in Section 2.4 of the
TLDA, for the purposes of improving the performance of the JAE (the
"Improved JAE") and integrating the Improved JAE into Products; (ii)
distribute Products in binary code form containing the Improved JAE in
accordance with the terms of Section 2.2 a and b of the TLDA; (iii)
sublicense the Improved JAE in source code form, in accordance with
Sections 2.1(b)(iii) and 2.1(d) of the TLDA; and (iv) sublicense the
Improved JAE in source code form to Sun's other commercial source code
licensees of the JAE for the sole purpose of integrating the Improved
JAE into such licensees' products pursuant to the terms of their
respective commercial JAE source code licenses with Sun.
3. The Letter Agreement is amended to clarify that, effective as of
December 1, 1998, Sun has a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive,
non-transferable right and license, in accordance with Paragraph 4 of
the Letter Agreement, to: (i) distribute and sublicense Version 3.0
of Symantec's Just-in-Time Compiler (and any updates thereto; e.g.,
Versions 3.x.x) in binary form; and (ii) access and modify the source
code of Version 3.0 of Symantec's Just-in-Time Compiler (and any
updates thereto).
4. Sun acknowledges that: (i) Symantec intends to spinout its Internet

obligations of Symantec under the TLDA, the Letter Agreement and this
Agreement, provided that the Spinout will not be directly or
indirectly owned or controlled by [*], or any entity directly or

terminate. Any fees or royalties owing to Sun at the time of such
termination shall become immediately due for payment. The parties
agree that, effective upon any such assignment, the Spinout will be
bound by and will assume and discharge all obligations of Symantec
under the TLDA, the Letter Agreement and this Agreement. Sun hereby
acknowledges and agrees that any transfer of rights in the Vector

modified herein, the TDLA and the Letter Agreement remain in full
force and effect and unmodified.
