license the use of software.

and lawful use of the Software and Documentation infringing any intellectual property rights, Seller shall at its
sole discretion take such action as it shall deem necessary to avoid, dispute, deny, defend, resist, appeal,
compromise or contest such claim. Subject to its maximum liability in accordance with this Agreement Seller

suitability of the Software for its purpose and for the results it obtains from the use of the Software. No
warranty is given that the Software is fit for any purpose (whether or not made known to the Seller).

such errors shall not constitute a breach of the Agreement. This acknowledgement does not affect statutory
rights.

period of 90 days from delivery the Seller may, at its sole option, either replace the Software free of charge, or

of any such defect; and subject to the Software having been properly and correctly used by the Licensee.

appropriately experienced personnel.

Agreement, whether in contract, tort, indemnification obligation, negligence or for breach of statutory duty or
otherwise, shall be limited to the total amount of the fee actually received by Seller in the twelve (12) months
directly preceding the event (or first of series of events) which gave rise to a claim, provided always that the
total liability of Seller shall never exceed in aggregate £100,000 (one hundred thousand British pound). The
Licensee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller against claims, actions, proceedings, losses,
damages, expenses and costs (including without limitation court costs and reasonable legal fees) of third
parties exceeding Seller’s maximum liability under the Agreement. Seller’s liability is limited to a period of one
(1) year after the termination of the Agreement.

connections, systems and security of the systems, including anti-virus programs.
13. Termination
a. The Seller may by notice in writing to the Licensee terminate the Agreement if the Licensee is in
breach of any term, condition or provision and fails to remedy such breach (if capable of remedy) within 10
days of having received written notice from the Seller specifying such breach.
b. Termination, howsoever or whenever occasioned, shall be without prejudice to the rights of either
party against the other subsisting at the date of termination.
