+IMPORTANT. Read the following NXP Semiconductors Software License Agreement
+("Agreement") completely. By downloading and using files in this project,
+you indicate that you accept the terms of the Agreement and you acknowledge
+that you have the authority, for yourself or on behalf of your company, to

+
+NXP SEMICONDUCTORS SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
+
+This is a legal agreement between you, as an authorized representative of your
+employer, or if you have no employer, as an individual (together "you"), and
+Freescale Semiconductor, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of NXP Semiconductors
+N.V. ("NXP"). It concerns your rights to use the software identified in the
+Software Content Register and provided to you in binary or source code form and
+any accompanying written materials (the "Licensed Software"). The Licensed
+Software may include any updates or error corrections or documentation relating
+to the Licensed Software provided to you by NXP under this License. In
+consideration for NXP allowing you to access the Licensed Software, you are
+agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to all
+of the terms of this Agreement, do not download or install the Licensed Software.
+If you change your mind later, stop using the Licensed Software and delete all
+copies of the Licensed Software in your possession or control. Any copies of the
+Licensed Software that you have already distributed, where permitted, and do not
+destroy will continue to be governed by this Agreement. Your prior use will also
+continue to be governed by this Agreement.
+
+1. DEFINITIONS
+
+1.1. "Affiliates" means, any corporation, or entity directly or indirectly
+controlled by, controlling, or under common control with NXP Semiconductors N.V.
+
+1.2. "Essential Patent" means a patent to the limited extent that infringement
+of such patent cannot be avoided in remaining compliant with the technology
+standards implicated by the usage of any of the Licensed Software, including
+optional implementation of the standards, on technical but not commercial
+grounds, taking into account normal technical practice and the state of the art
+generally available at the time of standardization.
+
+1.3. "Intellectual Property Rights" means any and all rights under statute,
+common law or equity in and under copyrights, trade secrets, and patents
+(including utility models), and analogous rights throughout the world, including
+any applications for and the right to apply for, any of the foregoing.
+
+1.4. "Software Content Register" means the documentation accompanying the
+Licensed Software which identifies the contents of the Licensed Software,
+including but not limited to identification of any Third Party Software.
+
+1.5. "Third Party Software" means, any software included in the Licensed
+Software that is not NXP Proprietary software, and is not open source software,
+and to which different license terms may apply.
+
+2. LICENSE GRANT.
+
+2.1. Separate license grants to Third Party Software, or other terms applicable
+to the Licensed Software if different from those granted in this Section 2, are
+contained in Appendix A. The Licensed Software is accompanied by a Software
+Content Register which will identify that portion of the Licensed Software, if
+any, that is subject to the different terms in Appendix A.
+
+2.2. Exclusively in connection with your development and distribution of product
+containing a programmable processing unit (e.g. a microprocessor, microcontroller,

+within, Authorized Systems and not on a standalone basis;
+
+(b) to directly or indirectly manufacture, demonstrate, copy, distribute, market
+and sell the Licensed Software in object code (machine readable) only as part of,
+or embedded within, Authorized Systems in object code form and not on a standalone
+basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, those files marked as .h files ("Header
+files") may be distributed in source or object code form, but only as part of,
+or embedded within Authorized Systems.
+
+(c) to copy, use and distribute as needed, solely in connection with an Authorized
+System, proprietary NXP information associated with the Licensed Software for
+the purpose of developing, maintaining and supporting Authorized Systems with
+which the Licensed Software is integrated or associated.

+2.3. For NXP Licensed Software provided to you in source code form (human
+readable), NXP further grants to you a worldwide, personal, non-transferable,
+non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, license, under NXP's Intellectual Property
+Rights:
+
+(a) to prepare derivative works of the Licensed Software, only as part of, or
+integrated within, Authorized Systems and not on a standalone basis;
+
+(b) to use, demonstrate, copy, distribute, market and sell the derivative works
+of the Licensed Software in object code (machine readable) only as part of, or
+integrated within, Authorized Systems and not on a standalone basis.
+Notwithstanding the foregoing, those files marked as .h files ("Header files")
+may be distributed in source or object code form, but only as part of, or
+embedded within Authorized Systems.
+
+2.4. You may use subcontractors on your premises to exercise your rights under
+Section 2.2 and 2.3 so long as you have an agreement in place with the
+ subcontractor containing confidentiality restrictions no less stringent than
+those contained in this Agreement. You will remain liable for your subcontractors'
+adherence to the terms of this Agreement and for any and all acts and omissions
+of such subcontractors with respect to this Agreement and the Licensed Software.

+information in any manner it deems appropriate.
+

+terms of the applicable open source license(s), such as the BSD License, Apache
+License or the GNU Lesser General Public License. Your use of the open source
+software is subject to the terms of each applicable license. You must agree to
+the terms of each applicable license, or you cannot use the open source software.

+Software. You agree to assign all, and hereby do assign all rights, title, and
+interest to any such modifications to the Licensed Software to NXP and agree to
+provide all assistance reasonably requested by NXP to establish, preserve or
+enforce such right. Further, you agree to waive all moral rights relating to your
+modifications to the Licensed Software, including, without limitation, all rights
+of identification of authorship and all rights of approval, restriction, or
+limitation on use or subsequent modification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you
+will have the license rights granted in Section 2 hereto to any such modifications
+made by you or your licensees.

+granted to you under this Agreement, you covenant not to sue or otherwise assert
+your patents against NXP, a NXP Affiliate or subsidiary, or a NXP licensee of

+
+15. SAFETY CRITICAL APPLICATIONS
+
+15.1. In some cases, NXP may promote certain Licensed Software for use in
+safety-related applications. NXP's goal is to educate licensees so that they
+can design their own end-product solutions to meet applicable functional safety
+standards and requirements. You make the ultimate design decisions regarding

+regulatory, safety, and security related requirements concerning your products,
+regardless of any information or support that may be provided by NXP. Accordingly,

+environment, you do so at your own risk.
+
+15.3. Licensed Software is not intended or authorized for any use in anti-personnel
+landmines.
+
+16. CHOICE OF LAW; VENUE. This Agreement will be governed by, construed, and
+enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard
+to conflicts of laws principles, will apply to all matters relating to this

+subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts Texas, USA.
+The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods
+will not apply to this document.
+
+17. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Subject to the license grants and restrictions
+contained herein, you must treat the Licensed Software as confidential information
+and you agree to retain the Licensed Software in confidence perpetually, with
+respect to Licensed Software in source code form (human readable), or for a period
+of five (5) years from the date of termination of this Agreement, with respect
+to all other parts of the Licensed Software. During this period, you may not
+disclose any part of the Licensed Software to anyone other than employees who
+have a need to know of the Licensed Software and who have executed written
+agreements obligating them to protect such Licensed Software to at least the
+same degree of care as in this Agreement. You agree to use the same degree of
+care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, with the Licensed Software
+as you do with your own confidential information. You may disclose Licensed
+Software to the extent required by a court or under operation of law or order
+provided that you notify NXP of such requirement prior to disclosure, which you
+only disclose information required, and that you allow NXP the opportunity to

+or logos.

+you and NXP regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all
+prior communications, negotiations, understandings, agreements or representations,
+either written or oral, if any. This Agreement may only be amended in written
+form, signed by you and NXP.
+
+20. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held for any reason to
+be invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining provisions of this Agreement
+will be unimpaired and, unless a modification or replacement of the invalid or
+unenforceable provision is further held to deprive you or NXP of a material
+benefit, in which case the Agreement will immediately terminate, the invalid
+or unenforceable provision will be replaced with a provision that is valid and
+enforceable and that comes closest to the intention underlying the invalid or
+unenforceable provision.
+
+21. NO WAIVER. The waiver by NXP of any breach of any provision of this Agreement
+will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or a subsequent breach
+of the same or a different provision.
+
+22. AUDIT. You will keep full, clear and accurate records with respect to your
+compliance with the limited license rights granted under this Agreement for three
+years following expiration or termination of this Agreement. NXP will have the
+right, either itself or through an independent certified public accountant to
+examine and audit, at NXP's expense, not more than once a year, and during normal
+business hours, all such records that may bear upon your compliance with the
+limited license rights granted above. You must make prompt adjustment to compensate
+for any errors and/or omissions disclosed by such examination or audit.
+
+23. NOTICES. All notices and communications under this Agreement will be made in
+writing, and will be effective when received at the following addresses:

+written approval of NXP, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or
+delayed.
