  This Agreement covers contributions to and downloads from the 3D
  Slicer project ("Slicer") maintained by The Brigham and Women's
  Hospital, Inc. ("Brigham"). Part A of this Agreement applies to
  contributions of software and/or data to Slicer (including making
  revisions of or additions to code and/or data already in Slicer). Part
  B of this Agreement applies to downloads of software and/or data from
  Slicer. Part C of this Agreement applies to all transactions with
  Slicer. If you distribute Software (as defined below) downloaded from
  Slicer, all of the paragraphs of Part B of this Agreement must be
  included with and apply to such Software.

  Your contribution of software and/or data to Slicer (including prior
  to the date of the first publication of this Agreement, each a
  "Contribution") and/or downloading, copying, modifying, displaying,
  distributing or use of any software and/or data from Slicer
  (collectively, the "Software") constitutes acceptance of all of the
  terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you do not agree to such
  terms and conditions, you have no right to contribute your
  Contribution, or to download, copy, modify, display, distribute or use
  the Software.

  PART A. CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT - License to Brigham with Right to
  Sublicense ("Contribution Agreement").

  1. As used in this Contribution Agreement, "you" means the individual
     contributing the Contribution to Slicer and the institution or
     entity which employs or is otherwise affiliated with such
     individual in connection with such Contribution.

  2. This Contribution Agreement applies to all Contributions made to
     Slicer, including without limitation Contributions made prior to
     the date of first publication of this Agreement. If at any time you
     make a Contribution to Slicer, you represent that (i) you are
     legally authorized and entitled to make such Contribution and to
     grant all licenses granted in this Contribution Agreement with
     respect to such Contribution; (ii) if your Contribution includes
     any patient data, all such data is de-identified in accordance with
     U.S. confidentiality and security laws and requirements, including
     but not limited to the Health Insurance Portability and
     Accountability Act (HIPAA) and its regulations, and your disclosure
     of such data for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement is
     properly authorized and in compliance with all applicable laws and
     regulations; and (iii) you have preserved in the Contribution all
     applicable attributions, copyright notices and licenses for any
     third party software or data included in the Contribution.

  3. Except for the licenses granted in this Agreement, you reserve all
     right, title and interest in your Contribution.

  4. You hereby grant to Brigham, with the right to sublicense, a
     perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no charge, royalty-free,
     irrevocable license to use, reproduce, make derivative works of,
     display and distribute the Contribution. If your Contribution is
     protected by patent, you hereby grant to Brigham, with the right to
     sublicense, a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge,
     royalty-free, irrevocable license under your interest in patent
     rights covering the Contribution, to make, have made, use, sell and
     otherwise transfer your Contribution, alone or in combination with
     any other code.

  5. You acknowledge and agree that Brigham may incorporate your
     Contribution into Slicer and may make Slicer available to members
     of the public on an open source basis under terms substantially in
     accordance with the Software License set forth in Part B of this
     Agreement. You further acknowledge and agree that Brigham shall
     have no liability arising in connection with claims resulting from
     your breach of any of the terms of this Agreement.

  6. YOU WARRANT THAT TO THE BEST OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE YOUR CONTRIBUTION
     DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY CODE THAT REQURES OR PRESCRIBES AN "OPEN
     SOURCE LICENSE" FOR DERIVATIVE WORKS (by way of non-limiting
     example, the GNU General Public License or other so-called
     "reciprocal" license that requires any derived work to be licensed
     under the GNU General Public License or other "open source
     license").

  PART B. DOWNLOADING AGREEMENT - License from Brigham with Right to
  Sublicense ("Software License").

  1. As used in this Software License, "you" means the individual
     downloading and/or using, reproducing, modifying, displaying and/or
     distributing the Software and the institution or entity which
     employs or is otherwise affiliated with such individual in
     connection therewith. The Brigham and Women?s Hospital,
     Inc. ("Brigham") hereby grants you, with right to sublicense, with
     respect to Brigham's rights in the software, and data, if any,
     which is the subject of this Software License (collectively, the
     "Software"), a royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use,
     reproduce, make derivative works of, display and distribute the
     Software, provided that:

  (a) you accept and adhere to all of the terms and conditions of this
  Software License;

  (b) in connection with any copy of or sublicense of all or any portion
  of the Software, all of the terms and conditions in this Software
  License shall appear in and shall apply to such copy and such
  sublicense, including without limitation all source and executable
  forms and on any user documentation, prefaced with the following

     EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW OR REGULATION, YOU FURTHER ASSUME ALL
     LIABILITY FOR YOUR USE, REPRODUCTION, MAKING OF DERIVATIVE WORKS,

     agency, may be used to endorse or promote products produced in
     whole or in part by operation of the Software or derived from or
     based on the Software without specific prior written permission
     from the applicable party.
