+ add Your own attribution notices within Derivative Works that You
+ distribute, alongside or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the
+ Work, provided that such additional attribution notices cannot be
+ construed as modifying the License.
+
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and may
+ provide additional or different license terms and conditions for use,

+ by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly negligent acts) or
+ agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be liable to You for
+ damages, including any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or
+ consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this
+ License or out of the use or inability to use the Work (including but
