  \ grants You a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license:   a. under intellectual property\
  \ rights (other than patent or trademark) Licensable by such Contributor to use, reproduce,\
  \ make available, modify, display, perform, distribute, and otherwise exploit its Contributions,\
  \ either on an unmodified basis, with Modifications, or as part of a Larger Work; and  b.\
  \ under Patent Claims of such Contributor to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, import,\
  \ and otherwise transfer either its Contributions or its Contributor Version.\n\n2.2 Effective\
  \ Date  The licenses granted in Section 2.1 with respect to any Contribution become effective\
  \ for each Contribution on the date the Contributor first distributes such Contribution.\n\
  \n2.3 Limitations on Grant Scope  The licenses granted in this Section 2 are the only rights\
  \ granted under this License. No additional rights or licenses will be implied from the distribution\
  \ or licensing of Covered Software under this License. Notwithstanding Section 2.1(b) above,\
  \ no patent license is granted by a Contributor:   a. for any code that a Contributor has\
  \ removed from Covered Software; or  b. for infringements caused by: (i) Your and any other\
  \ third party’s modifications of Covered Software, or (ii) the combination of its Contributions\
  \ with other software (except as part of its Contributor Version); or  c. under Patent Claims\
  \ infringed by Covered Software in the absence of its Contributions.   This License does not\
  \ grant any rights in the trademarks, service marks, or logos of any Contributor (except as\
  \ may be necessary to comply with the notice requirements in Section 3.4).\n\n2.4 Subsequent\
  \ Licenses  No Contributor makes additional grants as a result of Your choice to distribute\
  \ the Covered Software under a subsequent version of this License (see Section 10.2) or under\
  \ the terms of a Secondary License (if permitted under the terms of Section 3.3).\n\n2.5 Representation\
  \  Each Contributor represents that the Contributor believes its Contributions are its original\
  \ creation(s) or it has sufficient rights to grant the rights to its Contributions conveyed\
  \ by this License.\n\n2.6 Fair Use  This License is not intended to limit any rights You have\
  \ under applicable copyright doctrines of fair use, fair dealing, or other equivalents.\n\n\
  2.7 Conditions  Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 are conditions of the licenses granted in\
  \ Section 2.1.\n\n3. Responsibilities\n\n3.1 Distribution of Source Form  All distribution\
  \ of Covered Software in Source Code Form, including any Modifications that You create or\
  \ to which You contribute, must be under the terms of this License. You must inform recipients\
  \ that the Source Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this License,\
  \ and how they can obtain a copy of this License. You must cause any of Your Modifications\
  \ to carry prominent notices stating that You changed the files. You may not attempt to alter\
  \ or restrict the recipients’ rights in the Source Code Form.\n\n3.2 Distribution of Executable\
  \ Form  If You distribute Covered Software in Executable Form then:  \na. such Covered Software\
  \ must also be made available in Source Code Form, as described in Section 3.1, and You must\
  \ inform recipients of the Executable Form how they can obtain a copy of such Source Code\
  \ Form by reasonable means in a timely manner, at a charge no more than the cost of distribution\
  \ to the recipient; and  b. You may distribute such Executable Form under the terms of this\
  \ License, or sublicense it under different terms, provided that the license for the Executable\
  \ Form does not attempt to limit or alter the recipients’ rights in the Source Code Form under\
  \ this License.\n\n3.3 Distribution of a Larger Work  You may create and distribute a Larger\
  \ Work under terms of Your choice, provided that You also comply with the requirements of\
  \ this License for the Covered Software. If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered Software\
  \ with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the Covered Software is not\
  \ Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this License permits You to additionally distribute\
  \ such Covered Software under the terms of such Secondary License(s), so that the recipient\
  \ of the Larger Work may, at their option, further distribute the Covered Software under the\
  \ terms of either this License or such Secondary License(s).\n\n3.4 Notices  You may not remove\
  \ or alter the substance of any license notices (including copyright notices, patent notices,\
  \ disclaimers of warranty, or limitations of liability) contained within the Source Code Form\
  \ of the Covered Software, except that You may alter any license notices to the extent required\
  \ to remedy known factual inaccuracies.\n\n3.5 Application of Additional Terms\n\n3.5.1 You\
  \ may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability\
  \ obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Software. However, You may do so only on\
  \ Your own behalf, and not on behalf of any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear\
  \ that any such warranty, support, indemnity, or liability obligation is offered by You alone,\
  \ and You hereby agree to indemnify every Contributor for any liability incurred by such Contributor\
  \ as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You offer. You may include\
  \ additional disclaimers of warranty and limitations of liability specific to any jurisdiction.\
  \ \n3.5.2 You may place additional conditions upon the rights granted in this License to the\
  \ extent necessary due to statute, judicial order, regulation (including without limitation\
  \ state and federal procurement regulation), national security, or public interest. Any such\
  \ additional conditions must be clearly described in the notice provisions required under\
  \ Section 3.4. Any alteration of the terms of this License will apply to all copies of the\
  \ Covered Software distributed by You or by any downstream recipients that receive the Covered\
  \ Software from You.\n\n4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation If it is impossible\
  \ for You to comply with any of the terms of this License with respect to some or all of the\
  \ Covered Software due to statute, judicial order, or regulation, then You must: (a) comply\
  \ with the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b) describe the limitations\
  \ and the code they affect. Such description must be included in the notices required under\
  \ Section 3.4. Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description\
  \ must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand\
  \ it.\n\n5. Termination\n\n5.1 Failure to Comply  The rights granted under this License will\
  \ terminate automatically if You fail to comply with any of its terms. However, if You become\
  \ compliant, then the rights granted under this License from a particular Contributor are\
  \ reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until such Contributor explicitly and finally terminates\
  \ Your grants, and (b) on an ongoing basis, if such Contributor fails to notify You of the\
  \ non-compliance by some reasonable means prior to 60-days after You have come back into compliance.\
  \ Moreover, Your grants from a particular Contributor are reinstated on an ongoing basis if\
  \ such Contributor notifies You of the non-compliance by some reasonable means, this is the\
  \ first time You have received notice of non-compliance with this License from such Contributor,\
  \ and You become compliant prior to 30-days after Your receipt of the notice.\n\n5.2 Patent\
  \ Infringement Claims  If You initiate litigation against any entity by asserting a patent\
  \ infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions, counter-claims, and cross-claims)\
  \ alleging that a Contributor Version directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then the\
  \ rights granted to You by any and all Contributors for the Covered Software under Section\
  \ 2.1 of this License shall terminate.\n\n5.3 Additional Compliance Terms  Notwithstanding\
  \ the foregoing in this Section 5, for purposes of this Section, if You breach Section 3.1\
  \ (Distribution of Source Form), Section 3.2 (Distribution of Executable Form), Section 3.3\
  \ (Distribution of a Larger Work), or Section 3.4 (Notices), then becoming compliant as described\
  \ in Section 5.1 must also include, no later than 30 days after receipt by You of notice of\
  \ such violation by a Contributor, making the Covered Software available in Source Code Form\
  \ as required by this License on a publicly available computer network for a period of no\
  \ less than three (3) years.\n\n5.4 Contributor Remedies  If You fail to comply with the terms\
  \ of this License and do not thereafter become compliant in accordance with Section 5.1 and,\
  \ if applicable, Section 5.3, then each Contributor reserves its right, in addition to any\
  \ other rights it may have in law or in equity, to bring an action seeking injunctive relief,\
  \ or damages for willful copyright or patent infringement (including without limitation damages\
  \ for unjust enrichment, where available under law), for all actions in violation of rights\
  \ that would otherwise have been granted under the terms of this License.\n\n5.5 End User\
  \ License Agreements  In the event of termination under this Section 5, all end user license\
  \ agreements (excluding distributors and resellers), which have been validly granted by You\
  \ or Your distributors under this License prior to termination shall survive termination.\n\
  \n6. Disclaimer of Warranty Covered Software is provided under this License on an \"as is\"\
  \ basis, without warranty of any kind, either expressed, implied, or statutory, including,\
  \ without limitation, warranties that the Covered Software is free of defects, merchantable,\
  \ fit for a particular purpose or non-infringing. The entire risk as to the quality and performance\
  \ of the Covered Software is with You. Should any Covered Software prove defective in any\
  \ respect, You (not any Contributor) assume the cost of any necessary servicing, repair, or\
  \ correction. This disclaimer of warranty constitutes an essential part of this License. No\
  \ use of any Covered Software is authorized under this License except under this disclaimer.\n\
  \n7. Limitation of Liability Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether tort\
  \ (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall any Contributor, or anyone who distributes\
  \ Covered Software as permitted above, be liable to You for any direct, indirect, special,\
  \ incidental, or consequential damages of any character including, without limitation, damages\
  \ for lost profits, loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any\
  \ and all other commercial damages or losses, even if such party shall have been informed\
  \ of the possibility of such damages. This limitation of liability shall not apply to liability\
  \ for death or personal injury resulting from such party’s negligence to the extent applicable\
  \ law prohibits such limitation. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation\
  \ of incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion and limitation may not apply to\
  \ You.\n\n8. Litigation Any litigation relating to this License may be brought only in the\
  \ courts of a jurisdiction where the defendant maintains its principal place of business and\
  \ such litigation shall be governed by laws of that jurisdiction, without reference to its\
  \ conflict-of-law provisions. Nothing in this Section shall prevent a party’s ability to bring\
  \ cross-claims or counter-claims.\n\n9. Government Terms\n\n9.1 Commercial Item  The Covered\
  \ Software is a \"commercial item,\" as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995),\
  \ consisting of \"commercial computer software\" and \"commercial computer software documentation,\"\
  \ as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212\
  \ and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users acquire\
  \ Covered Software with only those rights set forth herein.\n\n9.2 No Sovereign Immunity \
  \ The U.S. federal government and states that use or distribute Covered Software hereby waive\
  \ their sovereign immunity with respect to enforcement of the provisions of this License.\n\
  \n9.3 Choice of Law and Venue\n\n9.3.1 If You are a government of a state of the United States,\
  \ or Your use of the Covered Software is pursuant to a procurement contract with such a state\
  \ government, this License shall be governed by the law of such state, excluding its conflict-of-law\
  \ provisions, and the adjudication of disputes relating to this License will be subject to\
  \ the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in such state. \n9.3.2\
  \ If You are an agency of the United States federal government, or Your use of the Covered\
  \ Software is pursuant to a procurement contract with such an agency, this License shall be\
  \ governed by federal law for all purposes, and the adjudication of disputes relating to this\
  \ License will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts located in Washington,\
  \ D.C. \n9.3.3 You may alter the terms of this Section 9.3 for this License as described in\
  \ Section 3.5.2.\n\n9.4 Supremacy  This Section 9 is in lieu of, and supersedes, any other\
  \ Federal Acquisition Regulation, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation, or other clause\
  \ or provision that addresses government rights in computer software under this License.\n\
  \n10. Miscellaneous This License represents the complete agreement concerning the subject\
  \ matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such provision\
  \ shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. Any law or regulation,\
  \ which provides that the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter, shall\
  \ not be used to construe this License against a Contributor.\n\n11. Versions of the License\n\
  \n11.1 New Versions The Open Source Election Technology Foundation (\"OSET\") (formerly known\
  \ as the Open Source Digital Voting Foundation) is the steward of this License. Except as\
  \ provided in Section 11.3, no one other than the license steward has the right to modify\
  \ or publish new versions of this License. Each version will be given a distinguishing version\
  \ number.\n\n11.2 Effects of New Versions You may distribute the Covered Software under the\
  \ terms of the version of the License under which You originally received the Covered Software,\
  \ or under the terms of any subsequent version published by the license steward.\n\n11.3 Modified\
  \ Versions If You create software not governed by this License, and You want to create a new\
  \ license for such software, You may create and use a modified version of this License if\
  \ You rename the license and remove any references to the name of the license steward (except\
  \ to note that such modified license differs from this License).\n\n11.4 Distributing Source\
  \ Code Form That is Incompatible With Secondary Licenses If You choose to distribute Source\
  \ Code Form that is Incompatible With Secondary Licenses under the terms of this version of\
  \ the License, the notice described in Exhibit B of this License must be attached.\n\nEXHIBIT\
  \ A – Source Code Form License Notice\n\nThis Source Code Form is subject to the terms of\
  \ the OSET Public License, v.2.1 (\"OSET-PL-2.1\"). If a copy of the OPL was not distributed\
  \ with this file, You can obtain one at: www.OSETFoundation.org/public-license.\n\nIf it is\
  \ not possible or desirable to put the Notice in a particular file, then You may include the\
  \ Notice in a location (e.g., such as a LICENSE file in a relevant directory) where a recipient\
  \ would be likely to look for such a notice. You may add additional accurate notices of copyright\
  \ ownership.\n\nEXHIBIT B - \"Incompatible With Secondary License\" Notice\n\nThis Source\
  \ Code Form is \"Incompatible With Secondary Licenses\", as defined by the OSET Public License,\
  \ v.2.1."
