4. WARRANTY

4.1 Limited Warranty. Licensor warrants for the sole benefit of Licensee that the program shall, if properly used by Licensee in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Licensor's instructions and the Documentation, substantially achieve the functionality described in the Documentation in effect on the date of installation of the program on Licensee's computer for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days from that date ("Warranty Period"). It is a precondition of Licensor's warranty that Licensee notifies Licensor in writing of details of any such nonconformance as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 7 days after discovery of any such nonconformance of the program and provides such assistance and information in relation to the nonconformance as Licensor may from time to time reasonably request. Licensor reserves the right to conduct tests in such form and manner as it may deem appropriate to substantiate or correct any claimed nonconformance of the program. Licensor's sole obligation under this warranty shall be, at the sole discretion of Licensor, (i) to supply Licensee with a corrected version of the program or (ii) to terminate this Agreement and refund to Licensee [a proportion of the fee, pro rata as to time, as represents that part of the year during which functionality was not achieved] at which time Licensee will return all copies of the program and the Documentation to the Licensor or destroy them in accordance with clause 3.3. If Licensee fails to give Licensor notice of any nonconformance in accordance with this clause 4.1 and the failure causes further deterioration in the performance of the program, Licensor shall not have any obligation to correct the nonconformance. Licensor's warranty obligations shall be void if the program is modified without the written consent of Licensor.

4.2 Limitations on Warranty. Notwithstanding the warranty provisions set forth above, Licensor shall have no warranty obligations if Licensee does not Use the program in accordance with this Agreement, all instructions provided by Licensor and the Documentation, as the same may be amended, replaced or supplemented from time to time. Licensor shall have no warranty obligations for the program if Licensee or any other party has:

a) used the program in a manner that does not conform to the provisions of this Agreement or the Documentation; or

b) modified or attempted to modify any portion of the program.

4.3 Licensee acknowledges that the program has not been developed to meet its individual requirements and that it is therefore Licensee's responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the program as described in the Documentation meet its requirements.

4.4 Licensee acknowledges that the program may not be free of bugs or errors and agrees that the existence of minor errors shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

5. EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

5.1 The warranty in clause 4.1 will be in substitution for all other terms, warranties, and conditions, express or implied, statutory or otherwise in relation to the Licensed Product (except for Licensor's title to them) which are hereby excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.

5.2 Licensor will not be liable in contract or tort (including negligence) or in any other way for:

a) any consequential or indirect loss, liability or damage or any other claim for consequential compensation;

b) loss of profit;

c) loss of income;

d) loss of business;

e) loss of opportunity, reputation or goodwill;

f) loss of information;

g) loss of anticipated savings or other benefits;

h) any loss or corruption of or damage to data; or

i) any costs, expenses or liability to any third party incurred by Licensee (excluding any reasonable costs incurred in repairing or replacing the program if it does not conform with the warranty in clause 4.1 and Licensor fails to do so in accordance with that clause);

arising directly in the natural and ordinary course or indirectly from or in connection with this Agreement or the Licensed Product.

5.3 Excluding its liability under clause 9, Licensor's warranty in clause 8.1, and to repair or replace the program if it is defective in accordance with the warranty in clause 4.1, Licensor's aggregate liability arising in contract or tort (including negligence) or otherwise howsoever for any loss, cost, damage, injury or liability (whether consequential, indirect or otherwise) resulting from or in connection with this Agreement or the Licensed Product will be limited to an amount equal to the total amount of the license and other fees paid to Licensor by Licensee under this Agreement, excluding Value Added Tax or any other sales tax or duty.

5.4 Liability for death, personal injury and fraud. The limitations on and exclusions from liability contained in this Agreement will not exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury arising from negligence or any liability for fraud.

5.5 Effect of Limitation and exclusions. The parties acknowledge that the limitation and exclusions set forth in this clause 5 are integral to the amount of fees charged for the licensing of the Licensed Product and any services to be provided in connection with them and recognize that were Licensor to assume any further liability beyond that set forth in this clause 5 such fees would be substantially higher.

6. SERVICES TO BE PERFORMED BY LICENSOR

6.1 Maintenance and support. Licensor shall provide what is in its opinion reasonable and necessary maintenance and e-mail support to Licensee at no charge for a period of one year (365 days) after the installation of the program on Licensee's computer. The support shall be available for up to two designated users for the one year period. Changes cannot be made to the designated users without permission, and such permission shall not be unreasonably withheld. The support will consist of support via e-mail. Licensee will be provided with an e-mail address to which questions can be sent. Licensor commits to acknowledge receipt of such e-mails within 2 working days of receipt. In cases where a modification to the program is required to address the issue, Licensor will assess the level of work required and agree a timetable with Licensee for completion of this work without undue delay. Providing the support is renewed so as to run uninterrupted from a previous renewal, on payment of a fee the Licensor will provide the Licensee further e-mail support in yearly increments (extended support).

6.2 Training. Licensor can, provided the same has been agreed in writing between the parties, provide, at Licensee's offices or remotely, consulting services and instruction on the implementation and operation of the program, the use and interpretation of the Documentation, and training of certain employees of Licensee. Fees and costs of providing this training can be provided on request.

6.3 Updates and upgrades. Licensor will, from time to time, release updates (in the opinion of Licensor minor changes to the existing Licensed Product) to the Licensed Product which will include modifications to existing modules. The Licensee will be notified of such updates via e-mail only if they have a current support agreement. This Agreement will cover any such updates. Upgrades (in the opinion of the Licensor a different version of the Licensed Product) to the Licensed Product which include major modifications to the codes and enhanced functionality and/or additional modules will be subject to an additional fee to be agreed between the parties at the time of release. Any such upgrade will be licensed on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.

7. DEMONSTRATION VERSIONS

If and only if the program is a demonstration version, the terms of this Agreement apply in all respects except that the program is provided "AS-IS" so that the warranty in clause 4.1 will not apply to it and Licensor bears no responsibility to provide support for the program or services described in clause 6. The program shall be operable without a hardware key. Licensee acknowledges that the program may contain bugs, errors or other problems for which Licensor disclaims any warranty or liability obligations.

Licensee shall have only the limited use rights specifically granted by this Agreement and the License granted under it. Significant modifications to the Licensed Product which are developed at the request of and paid for by Licensee shall be considered works for hire and, if Licensor consents to develop the proposed modifications as requested by Licensee, then those modifications shall be deemed the property of Licensee, except as otherwise agreed in writing by Licensor and Licensee.

9. PATENT, TRADE SECRET AND COPYRIGHT INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Defence of Suits. Licensor, at its own expense and using legal advisers of its choice, shall defend or at its option settle any claim, suit or proceeding ("action") brought against Licensee alleging that the Licensed Product or any part of it infringes any patent, trade name, trademark, service mark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary or intellectual property rights of any third party ("Infringement").

9.2 Licensor shall have no liability for any action for Infringement relating to (a) Use of the Licensed Product other than the then latest release of the Licensed Product provided by Licensor if or to the extent that such Infringement could have been avoided by the Use of the latest release of the Licensed Product and such latest version as been made available to Licensee or (b) Use or combination of the Licensed Product with any software, hardware or other materials not provided or recommended or approved in writing by Licensor.

10. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

The rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement are not exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.
