|
|
|
|
your Contributions to Khronos, or that your employer has executed a
|
|
|
|
separate Corporate Contributor License Grant with Khronos.

|
|
|
|
represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete
|
|
|
|
details of any third-party license or other restriction (including,
|
|
|
|
but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you
|
|
|
|
are personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
