3.8. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRIBUTED MODIFICATIONS.
(a) Each Subsequent Contributor (including the Initial Contributor where the Initial Contributor also qualifies as
a Subsequent Contributor) must cause each Subsequent Work created or contributed to by that Subsequent
Contributor to contain a file documenting the changes, in accordance with the requirements of Part 1 of the
Supplement File, that such Subsequent Contributor made in the creation or contribution to that Subsequent Work. If
no Supplement File exists or no requirements are set out in Part 1 of the Supplement File, then there are no
requirements for Subsequent Contributors to document changes that they make resulting in Subsequent Works.
(b) The Initial Contributor may at any time introduce requirements or add to or change earlier requirements (in
each case, the "EARLIER DESCRIPTION REQUIREMENTS") for documenting changes resulting in Subsequent
Works by revising Part 1 of each copy of the Supplement File distributed by the Initial Contributor with future
copies of the Licensed Work so that Part 1 then contains new requirements (the "NEW DESCRIPTION
REQUIREMENTS") for documenting such changes.
(c) Any Recipient receiving at any time any copy of an Initial Work or any Subsequent Work under a copy of
this License (in each case, an "Earlier LICENSED COPY") having the Earlier Description Requirements may
choose, with respect to each such Earlier Licensed Copy, to comply with the Earlier Description Requirements or
the New Description Requirements. Where a Recipient chooses to comply with the New Description Requirements,
that Recipient will, when thereafter distributing any copies of any such Earlier Licensed Copy, include a Supplement
File having a section entitled Part 1 that contains a copy of the New Description Requirements.
(d) For greater certainty, the intent of Part 1 of the Supplement File is to provide a mechanism (if any) by which
Subsequent Contributors must document changes that they make to the Licensed Work resulting in Subsequent
Works. Part 1 of any Supplement File shall not be used to increase or reduce the scope of the license granted in
Article 2 of this License or in any other way increase or decrease the rights and obligations of any Recipient, and
shall at no time serve as the basis for terminating the License. Further, a Recipient can be required to correct and
change its documentation procedures to comply with Part 1 of the Supplement File, but cannot be penalised with
damages. Part 1 of any Supplement File is only binding on each Recipient of any Licensed Work to the extent Part 1
sets out the requirements for documenting changes to the Initial Work or any Subsequent Work.
(e) An example of a set of requirements for documenting changes and contributions made by Subsequent
Contributor is set out in Part 7 of Exhibit A of this License. Part 7 is a sample only and is not binding on Recipients,
unless (subject to the earlier paragraphs of this Section 3.8) those are the requirements that the Initial Contributor
includes in Part 1 of the Supplement File with the copies of the Initial Work distributed under this License.
3.9. USE OF DISTRIBUTOR NAME.
The name of a Distributor may not be used by any other Distributor to endorse or promote the Licensed Work or
products derived from the Licensed Work, without prior written permission.
3.10. LIMITED RECOGNITION OF INITIAL CONTRIBUTOR.
(a) As a modest attribution to the Initial Contributor, in the hope that its promotional value may help justify the
time, money and effort invested in writing the Initial Work, the Initial Contributor may include in Part 2 of the
Supplement File a requirement that each time an executable program resulting from the Initial Work or any
Subsequent Work, or a program dependent thereon, is launched or run, a prominent display of the Initial
Contributor's attribution information must occur (the "ATTRIBUTION INFORMATION"). The Attribution
