It's very confusing, though.  I think you should strike the copyright
terms out of this, changing:


>>> without restriction, including without limitation the rights to make,
>>> use, sell, offer for sale, import, export, have made, have sold, copy,
>>> create derivative works of, display, perform, distribute, and
>>> sublicense the Software and the Larger Work(s) on either these or other
>>> terms.
