7+
(subject to the termination provision below) license under any Necessary
8+
Claims, to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, and otherwise

transfer the Software. For avoidance of doubt, no license is granted under

The license granted hereunder will terminate, automatically and without notice,
15-
for anyone that makes any claim (including by filing any lawsuit, assertion or
16-
other action) alleging (a) direct, indirect, or contributory infringement or
17-
inducement to infringe any patent: (i) by Facebook or any of its subsidiaries or
18-
affiliates, whether or not such claim is related to the Software, (ii) by any
19-
party if such claim arises in whole or in part from any software, product or
20-
service of Facebook or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, whether or not
21-
such claim is related to the Software, or (iii) by any party relating to the
22-
Software; or (b) that any right in any patent claim of Facebook is invalid or
23-
unenforceable.
15+
if you (or any of your subsidiaries, corporate affiliates or agents) initiate
16+
directly or indirectly, or take a direct financial interest in, any Patent
17+
Assertion: (i) against Facebook or any of its subsidiaries or corporate
18+
affiliates, (ii) against any party if such Patent Assertion arises in whole or
19+
in part from any software, technology, product or service of Facebook or any of
20+
its subsidiaries or corporate affiliates, or (iii) against any party relating
21+
to the Software. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Facebook or any of its
22+
subsidiaries or corporate affiliates files a lawsuit alleging patent
23+
infringement against you in the first instance, and you respond by filing a
24+
patent infringement counterclaim in that lawsuit against that party that is
25+
unrelated to the Software, the license granted hereunder will not terminate
26+
under section (i) of this paragraph due to such counterclaim.

A "Necessary Claim" is a claim of a patent owned by Facebook that is
29+
necessarily infringed by the Software standing alone.

31+
A "Patent Assertion" is any lawsuit or other action alleging direct, indirect,
32+
or contributory infringement or inducement to infringe any patent, including a
33+
cross-claim or counterclaim.
