Please keep in mind that if your application incorporates or relies
upon any other code (to which you do not hold the copyrights) that is
also licensed under the AGPL, you cannot grant an exception (really,
an 'additional permission') on your code which is combined with it,
since you can't grant that same additional permission on the
third-party code you are using.
