All sums due to InteleXVision under or in relation to this Agreement are exclusive of any Sales Tax which shall be charged in addition in accordance with the relevant regulations in force at the time of making the relevant taxable supply and shall be paid by the Customer in full at the same time as payment is due under the relevant invoice.
  5. If the Customer is or may be required under any law or regulation of any governmental entity or authority, domestic or foreign, to withhold or deduct any portion of any payment due to InteleXVision pursuant to this Agreement and InteleXVision is unable to reclaim or recover that deduction through the exercise of reasonable efforts, then the sum payable to InteleXVision shall be increased by the amount necessary to yield to InteleXVision an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no withholdings or deductions been made.

  4. All Confidential Information shall remain the property of the Disclosing Party and the Disclosing Party reserves all rights in its Confidential Information. Nothing in this Agreement or the disclosures envisaged by this Agreement shall (except as expressly agreed otherwise in this Agreement) operate to transfer, or operate as a grant of any licences or right to use, any Intellectual Property Rights in the Confidential Information.
  5. Each party acknowledges that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach by the other party of the provisions of this clause 12. Accordingly, it is agreed that either party shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to seek an injunction or other interim remedy for any threatened or actual breach of this clause 12 by the other party, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies which that first party may have.

    • The Customer takes all reasonable steps to mitigate any liabilities which are the subject of the indemnity in this clause 1.
  2. If any IPR Claim is made, or in InteleXVision’s reasonable opinion is likely to be made, against the Customer, InteleXVision may at its option and expense:
    • Obtain for the Customer the right to continue using the Product, Documentation and/or Work Product (as applicable) in the manner permitted under this Agreement;
    • Modify or replace the infringing part of the Product, Documentation and/or Work Product (as applicable) so as to avoid the infringement or alleged infringement, but in such a way that does not materially adversely affect the functionality of the Product and/or Work Product (as applicable); and/or
    • Terminate this Agreement and refund Fees paid in advance by the Customer in respect of any period following such termination. For the purposes of this clause 2.3, where the Order relates to the licensing of a Product and the Licence Term is perpetual, Licence Fees paid in advance shall be refunded on a Five Year Straight-line Basis.
  3. Under no circumstances shall InteleXVision be liable to the Customer under clause 1 or 13.2 (or otherwise) to the extent that the infringement (whether actual or threatened) is based on:
    • Any changes, modifications, updates or enhancements made to the Product, Documentation and/or Work Product (as applicable) other than by or on behalf of InteleXVision;
    • Any use of the Product, Documentation and/or Work Product (as applicable) in combination with any software or hardware not supplied by InteleXVision and/or not supported in the Documentation (including any End Customer Systems); and/or
    • Any open source software distributed, embedded, or bundled with the Product.

  5. The Customer shall indemnify, keep indemnified and hold InteleXVision harmless against any and all damages, claims, actions, proceedings, losses and costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising from any third party claims or actions arising out of or in connection with the Customer's use (or misuse) of the Product, Documentation and/or Work Product (as applicable) in breach of (or outside of the scope of the rights granted pursuant to) this Agreement.

14. Limitation of Liability

  1. Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits the liability of either party to the other:
    • For death or personal injury caused by negligence;

    • Under the indemnities in clause 13;
    • In respect of the Customer, for the Customer’s obligation to pay any Fees; or
    • For any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

  3. In relation to any liability of either party not captured by clauses 2.1, 14.2.2 or 14.2.3 (but for this clause 14.3), such liability shall be deemed to fall under (and therefore be limited by):
    • The Product Cap (where the Order relates to the licensing of a Product, irrespective of whether the Order also relates to the provision of Software Upgrade Services and/or Professional Services);
    • The Support Cap (where the Order relates to the provision of Software Upgrade Services, but not to the licensing of a Product); or
    • The Professional Services Cap (where the Order relates only to the provision of Professional Services).
  4. The parties acknowledge and agree that:
    • The total aggregate liability of either party (including liability for breach) in contract, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), misrepresentation (whether innocent or negligent), restitution or otherwise under this Agreement, shall in no event exceed the higher of the Product Cap, Software Upgrade Services Cap or the Professional Services Cap (as applicable);
    • Where a single cause of action arises (or series of connected causes of action arise) in connection with two or more of the Product, Software Upgrade Services or Professional Services, the affected party shall only be entitled to recover losses, claims, damages, costs or expenses under one of the Product Cap, Software Upgrade Services Cap or Professional Services Cap (as applicable) and not under multiple caps; and
    • For the purposes of calculating liability pursuant to clauses 2.1(ii) and 14.2.2, where a cause of action arises in a Year and continues across subsequent Years and/or continues after the expiry or termination of this Agreement, then the cause of action shall be deemed to have arisen only in the Year in which such cause of action first arose.
  5. Subject to clause 1, neither party shall be liable whether in tort (including for negligence), breach of statutory duty, contract, misrepresentation (whether innocent or negligent), restitution or otherwise for:
    1. Any loss of profits, loss of business, loss of savings, depletion of goodwill and/or similar losses, or pure economic loss or any loss or corruption of data or information (regardless of whether these types of loss or damage are direct, indirect or consequential); or
    2. Any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage whatsoever,

      in each case however arising under or in connection with this Agreement and even if the first party was aware of the possibility that such loss or damage might be incurred by the other party.
  6. Subject to clause 1, InteleXVision shall not be liable whether in tort (including for negligence), breach of statutory duty, contract, misrepresentation (whether innocent or negligent), restitution or otherwise for any interruptions to, and/or errors in, End Customer Systems (including where such interruptions or errors are caused by incompatibility with the Product).

19. Miscellaneous

  1. Force Majeure.

  5. Assignment. Customer shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, charge, declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with this Agreement, or with any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of InteleXVision.
