||
|
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to
|
||
|
make changes and new works based on the software for any
|
||
|

||
|

## Patent License
|
||
|
|
||

||
|
any other licenses.

## Patent Defense
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
Sia platform infringes or contributes to infringement of any patent,
|
||
|
your patent license for the software granted under these terms
|
||
|
ends immediately. If your company makes such a claim, your
|
||
|
patent license ends immediately for work on behalf of your company.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Violations

||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
|
||
|
not covered by your licenses, your licenses can nonetheless
|
||
|
continue if you come into full compliance with these terms,
|
||
|
and take practical steps to correct past violations, within
|
||
|
30 days of receiving notice. Otherwise, all your licenses
|
||
|
end immediately.

||
|
|
||
|

||
|
to you for any damages arising out of these terms or the use
|
||
|
or nature of the software, under any kind of legal claim._**
