    Conditions.

    Availability. As a condition to the grant of rights to Licensee to make,

    sell, offer for sale, import or distribute an Implementation under Section 1.1, Licensee must make its Necessary Claims available under this License, and must reproduce this License with any Implementation as follows:

    a. For distribution in source code, by including this License in the root directory of the source code with its Implementation.

    b. For distribution in any other form (including binary, object form, and/or hardware description code (e.g., HDL, RTL, Gate Level Netlist, GDSII, etc.)), by including this License in the documentation, legal notices, and/or other written materials provided with the Implementation.

    "AS IS" and without warranty. The entire risk as to implementing or otherwise using the Reference Implementation or Specification is assumed by the implementer and user.
