+<p>The U.S. Government Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security
+(BIS), has classified this software as Export Commodity Control Number (ECCN)
+5D002.C.1, which includes information security software using or performing
+cryptographic functions with asymmetric algorithms.  The form and manner of
+this Apache Software Foundation distribution makes it eligible for export
+under the License Exception ENC Technology Software Unrestricted (TSU)
+exception (see the BIS Export Administration Regulations, Section 740.13)
+for both object code and source code.</p>
+
+<p>The following provides more details on the included files that may be
+subject to export controls on cryptographic software:</p>
+
+<p>Apache httpd 2.0 and later versions include the mod_ssl module under
+modules/ssl/ for configuring and listening to connections over SSL encrypted
+network sockets by performing calls to a general-purpose encryption library,
+such as OpenSSL or the operating system's platform-specific SSL facilities.
+</p>
+
+<p>In addition, some versions of apr-util provide an abstract interface for
+SSL encrypted network sockets in the files under the directory 
+srclib/apr-util/ssl/ that makes use of a general-purpose encryption library, 
+such as OpenSSL or the operating system's platform-specific SSL facilities.  
+Apache httpd currently does not use that apr-util interface.</p>
+
+<p>Some object code distributions of Apache httpd, indicated with the word
+"crypto" in the package name, may include object code for the OpenSSL
+encryption library as distributed in open source form from
+<a href="http://www.openssl.org/source/">http://www.openssl.org/source/</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>The above files are optional and may be removed if the cryptographic
+functionality is not desired or needs to be excluded from redistribution.
+Distribution packages of Apache httpd that include the word "nossl" in the
+package name have been created without the above files and are therefore not
+subject to this notice.</p>
