It's Open Source under the BSD license. The license reads:
Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without
modification, is permitted provided that the following conditions
are met:
So if you meet those requirements, you are allowed to distribute it
without having to pay anything. (If you don't meet the requirements,
than you can just not distribute it).
