10.   NO WARRANTY

10.1   ANY USE BY THE LICENSEE OF THE PLATFORM IS AT THE LICENSEE’S OWN RISK. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED FOR USE ONLY WITH IC(S) AS STATED IN CLAUSE 1.6(A).  EXCEPT FOR ANY APPLICABLE LIMITED HARDWARE WARRANTY THAT MAY BE PROVIDED WITH THE PLATFORM, THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED FOR USE "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ZIILABS AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE OR NONINFRINGEMENT. ZIILABS IS NOT OBLIGATED TO PROVIDE ANY UPDATES OR UPGRADES TO THE PLATFORM OR OTHERWISE PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT FOR THE PLATFORM.

For purposes of this paragraph, “malicious code” means any program code designed to contaminate other computer programs or computer data, consume computer resources, modify, destroy, record, or transmit data, or in some other fashion usurp the normal operation of the computer, computer system, or computer network, including viruses, Trojan horses, droppers, worms, spyware, logic bombs, and the like.

10.3   Further, ZiiLABS shall not be liable for the accuracy of any information provided by ZiiLABS or third-party technical support personnel, or any damages caused, either directly or indirectly, by acts taken or omissions made by the Licensee as a result of such technical support.

The Licensee also assumes the entire risk as it applies to the quality and performance of the Platform.

10.5   Some countries/states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to the Licensee.  ZiiLABS disclaims all warranties of any kind if the Platform was customized, repackaged, or altered in any way by any party other than ZiiLABS.

11.    NO LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES

11.1   IN NO EVENT SHALL ZIILABS, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PLATFORM AND/OR ANY DERIVATIVE OF THE PLATFORM, EVEN IF ZIILABS, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. BECAUSE SOME STATES/COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY.

11.2   Without limitation, ZiiLABS, its affiliates, and its licensors will not be liable for (i) any alleged infringement of a Standard or any other patent rights of third parties; or (ii) any claim of personal injury or property damage arising from the use of any part of the Platform or IC(s). A Standard means any standard that is promulgated by any standards development organization, consortium, trade association, special interest group, or like entity, for the purpose of widespread adoption.

13.    CONFIDENTIALITY

13.1   In the absence of any applicable Non-Disclosure Agreement entered into between the parties, the confidentiality obligations of the Licensee contained in this Section 13 herein shall continue without limit in point of time but shall, subject to the provision of sufficient relevant documentary evidence by the Licensee, cease to apply to any information coming into the public domain otherwise than by breach by the Licensee of its obligations contained in this Agreement. Licensee will not release, disclose or otherwise permit access to the Platform or any Confidential Information provided by ZiiLABS or any of its affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, or use such Confidential Information in such a way that any third party can gain access to such Confidential Information. Licensee shall not disclose or cause to be disclosed the Platform or any other Confidential Information contained therein to any third party unless with the prior written consent of ZiiLABS, and such consent may be granted or withheld at ZiiLABS’ sole discretion. Licensee agrees to clearly mark any permitted copy of information and derivatives by legend as “Confidential.” Licensee shall only disclose the Platform and Confidential Information to its employees strictly on a need-to-know basis.  Licensee warrants that all those individuals having access to the Platform and Confidential Information under this Agreement will be subject to terms not less protective than the terms of this Agreement with respect to such Platform and other Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" shall mean information or material proprietary to ZiiLABS of which Licensee may obtain knowledge or access. "Confidential Information" includes, but is not limited to, the following types of information and other information of a similar nature, whether or not set forth in writing: discoveries, ideas, concepts, papers, software in various stages of development, designs, drawings, specifications, techniques, models, prototypes, data, source code, object code, documentation, manuals, diagrams, flow charts, schematics, research, process, procedures, functions, "know-how", marking techniques and materials, marketing and development plans, employee names, customer names and other information related to customers, price lists, pricing policies and financial information. "Confidential Information" shall also include any information described as proprietary or designated as confidential information, whether or not owned or developed by ZiiLABS, and whether or not copyrighted, and information disclosed to ZiiLABS by any third party which information ZiiLABS is obligated to treat as confidential or proprietary information, and shall also include confidential information disclosed by any ZiiLABS affiliate.

13.2   Licensee acknowledges that the unauthorized use, transfer, sublicensing or disclosure of the Platform (or copies thereof) or any Confidential Information will cause irreparable injury to ZiiLABS, and under such circumstances ZiiLABS shall be entitled to equitable relief, including, but not limited to, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, and Licensee waives any requirements that a bond be posted.

13.3   Licensee further acknowledges that (i) ZiiLABS has no obligations under this Agreement to keep confidential any information received from Licensee, and that (ii) ZiiLABS may currently or in the future be developing information, applications or technology internally, or receiving information or technology from third parties that may be similar to the Licensee’s products (including but not limited to software applications) developed hereunder. Accordingly, nothing in this Agreement will be construed as a representation, agreement or inference that ZiiLABS will not develop products or technology, or have products developed for it, or enter into joint ventures, alliances, or licensing arrangements that compete with the products or applications developed by Licensee hereunder.

15.8   If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

15.9   This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the parties respecting the subject matter hereof and all prior negotiations, understandings, representations and agreements of the parties, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject of this Agreement are superseded in its entirety. If there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any agreement included with any software stated in Exhibit A, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The Licensee agrees that ZiiLABS will not have any liability for any statement or representation made by ZiiLABS, its agents or anyone else (whether innocently or negligently) upon which the Licensee relied upon entering this Agreement, unless such statement or representation is proven to have been made fraudulently.

15.12   All captions and headings in this Agreement are for purposes of convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of any of its provisions.
