"IBM has built its own AIX Unix under license since February 1985, when the company entered into a Unix license agreement with AT&T Bell Laboratories, which owned Unix at the time. Ten years later, SCO bought the rights and ownership of Unix from AT&T, including source code, source documentation, software development contracts, licenses and other related intellectual property. After the purchase from AT&T, SCO became the licensee to all Unix distributors, including Hewlett-Packard Co., IBM, Silicon Graphics Inc. and Sun Microsystems Inc., according to SCO. The licensing agreements require that the Unix software code be held in confidence and prohibit unauthorized distribution or transfer."
