MICROSOFT LIMITED PUBLIC LICENSE version 1.1
This license governs use of code marked as “sample” or “example” 
available on this web site without a license agreement, as provided under the 
section above titled “NOTICE SPECIFIC TO SOFTWARE AVAILABLE ON THIS WEB 
SITE.” If you use such code (the “software”), you accept this license. If 
you do not accept the license, do not use the software.

1. Definitions
The terms “reproduce,” “reproduction,” “derivative works,” and 
“distribution” have the same meaning here as under U.S. copyright law.
A “contribution” is the original software, or any additions or changes to 
the software.
A “contributor” is any person that distributes its contribution under this 
license.
“Licensed patents” are a contributor’s patent claims that read directly 
on its contribution.

2. Grant of Rights
(A) Copyright Grant - Subject to the terms of this license, including the 
license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants you a 
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to reproduce its 
contribution, prepare derivative works of its contribution, and distribute its 
contribution or any derivative works that you create.
(B) Patent Grant - Subject to the terms of this license, including the license 
conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants you a 
non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under its licensed patents to 
make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, import, and/or otherwise dispose of 
its contribution in the software or derivative works of the contribution in the 
software.

3. Conditions and Limitations
(A) No Trademark License- This license does not grant you rights to use any 
contributors’ name, logo, or trademarks.
(B) If you bring a patent claim against any contributor over patents that you 
claim are infringed by the software, your patent license from such contributor 
to the software ends automatically.
(C) If you distribute any portion of the software, you must retain all 
copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices that are present in the 
software.
(D) If you distribute any portion of the software in source code form, you may 
do so only under this license by including a complete copy of this license with 
your distribution. If you distribute any portion of the software in compiled or 
object code form, you may only do so under a license that complies with this 
license.
(E) The software is licensed “as-is.” You bear the risk of using it. The 
contributors give no express warranties, guarantees or conditions. You may have 
additional consumer rights under your local laws which this license cannot 
change. To the extent permitted under your local laws, the contributors exclude 
the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and 
non-infringement.
(F) Platform Limitation - The licenses granted in sections 2(A) and 2(B) extend 
only to the software or derivative works that you create that run directly on a 
Microsoft Windows operating system product, Microsoft run-time technology (such 
as the .NET Framework or Silverlight), or Microsoft application platform (such 
as Microsoft Office or Microsoft Dynamics).
