Yuck, that's a terrible license.  The second paragraph is rather ambiguous:

Redistributions in binary form must not misrepresent ... other materials 
provided with the distribution.

sounds like the following would violate this:  you distribute documentation 
with your software... the distributed binary is compatable only with 64-bit 
hardware, and you claim to be 32-bit compatable in the docs.

Also, the third paragraph is missing a "not", which makes it nongrammatical.  
*yay*.

Fortunately, it's close enough to the MIT license, that if you pointed these 
flaws out to him, he might change.
