7.   Infringement.

Seller will defend or settle, at Seller’s expense, any action brought against Customer to the extent based upon a claim that the Software infringes any United States copyright, trademark or trade secret, and Seller will pay such damages and costs as are finally awarded against Customer attributable to such action, provided that Customer (i) notifies Seller promptly in writing of any such action, (ii) gives Seller sole control of the defense and/or settlement of such action and (iii) gives Seller all reasonable information and assistance (at Seller’s expense, excluding time spent by Customer’s employees or consultants) in connection with such action.  Should the Software become, or in Seller’s opinion be likely to become, the subject of such an infringement claim, Seller may, at Seller’s option (i) procure for Customer the right to use the Software free of any liability; (ii) replace or modify, in whole or in part, the Software to make it non-infringing; or, if (i) and (ii) are not commercially practical, (iii) terminate this Agreement and refund a pro-rata portion of the license fees paid by Customer based on a three-year straight-line amortization of such license fees.  Seller assumes no liability for any infringement arising from: (i) any method or process in which the Software may be used; (ii) any compliance with Customer’s designs or specifications; (iii) use of other than the current unaltered release of the Software; or (iv) the combination, operation or use of the Software with any third-party programs, data or hardware.  THE FOREGOING IS SELLER’S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM THAT THE SOFTWARE INFRINGES ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

Seller will not be liable for any lost profits, loss of data, cost of procurement of substitute goods or services, or for any consequential, incidental, special, indirect, or exemplary damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement, however caused and under any theory of liability (including negligence), even if Seller has been advised of the possibility of such damages.  Customer acknowledges that the amounts payable hereunder are based in part on these limitations, and further agrees that these limitations shall apply notwithstanding the failure of the essential purpose of any remedy. Seller’s total and cumulative liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall not exceed the license fees paid by Customer hereunder.  Without limiting the foregoing, Seller’s total and cumulative liability arising out of or in connection with the maintenance and support obligations set forth in Schedule A will not exceed the maintenance and support fees paid in the previous 12 months.

9.   Term and Termination.

a.  Term.  Each license granted in Section 2(a) hereunder shall be effective as of the Effective Date and shall continue in effect for the period set forth in Customer’s Purchase Order, which may be either fixed or perpetual, unless earlier terminated as set forth herein.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect until the last remaining license under this Agreement expires or is terminated.

b.  Termination.  Either party may terminate this Agreement and each of the licenses granted herein upon written notice to the other party if:  (i) the other party fails to comply with any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the failure to make timely payment hereunder, and such default is not cured within 30 days after written notice thereof to the other party, or (ii) the other party becomes the subject of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy or any voluntary or involuntary proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or composition or assignment for the benefit of creditors.

Error means an error in the Software or Documentation that causes the Software to fail to operate materially in accordance with the Documentation.  A non-conformity will not be considered an Error if it is caused by:  (a) Customer’s misuse of the Software; (b) any third-party software or hardware; (c) any modifications or alterations of or additions to the Software performed by a party other than Seller; or (d) Customer’s failure to implement all Workarounds, Upgrade, Updates and Releases which are provided under this Agreement.

Release means a major new version of the Software that, in Seller’s discretion, is represented by a change to the left of the decimal point in the version number of the Software (e.g., v1.0 to v2.0).

2. Scope of Support. 

The Software support set forth herein is provided only with respect to (i) the operation of the Software on production releases on authorized operating systems and (ii) unmodified versions of the Software.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Software support set forth herein will be provided only for the most current Release version of the Software currently shipping to new customers, provided that Seller will continue to support the Release version immediately preceding the most current Release version for a period of 6 months after the date on which the most current Release becomes commercially available.  All communications with Seller regarding use and/or support of the Software must be through the Designated Persons.

5. Correction of Software Errors. 

Seller will use all commercially reasonable efforts to correct all Errors in the Software reported by Designated Persons using Seller’s standard reporting procedures.  In some cases the Error may be caused by a documentation error, rather than a software error, in which case Seller will provide corrected Documentation.  Customer acknowledges that implementation of Updates and Workarounds may require recompilation of files, and/or making other changes necessitated thereby.

6. Additional Services. 

All Software maintenance or support which Customer requests, and which Seller, in Seller’s discretion, agrees to provide, and which is not specifically provided pursuant to this Schedule A shall be provided at Seller’s then-standard charges therefore.  This shall also include all services provided by Seller, at Customer’s request, other than during Seller’s normal working hours, local time at Seller’s support facility.  The foregoing services shall be invoiced monthly and shall be payable within 30 days of invoice.
