It is OK to leave it as is and just add a new Copyright line for
your/Sun's contributions with your normal standard phrasing. Just add it
above or below the other line. You can never remove copyright statements
from other contributors, everybody keeps their own copyright, but you
can always add your own. There are lots of files already that have
multiple copyright statements from different people/companies in the
repository already.
