3Before filing or continuing to prosecute any legal proceeding or claim
4(other than a Defensive Action) arising from termination of a Covered
5License, we commit to extend to the person or entity ('you') accused
6of violating the Covered License the following provisions regarding
7cure and reinstatement, taken from GPL version 3. As used here, the
8term 'this License' refers to the specific Covered License being
9enforced.

11 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
12 license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
13 provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly
14 and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
15 copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
16 reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
17
18 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
19 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
20 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you
21 have received notice of violation of this License (for any work)
22 from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30
23 days after your receipt of the notice.

25We intend this Commitment to be irrevocable, and binding and
26enforceable against us and assignees of or successors to our
27copyrights.
