3.4 Customer shall notify Infomill in writing and provide documented examples of any defects or errors in the Software. Infomill will correct or replace at Infomill’s option and expense, within a reasonable time period any part of the Software which is demonstrated to fail to perform in accordance with the warranty given in Clause 3.1

3.5 Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy under the warranty given in clause 3.1 shall be limited to the correction or replacement of the failed Software in whole or in part or, if Infomill is unable to rectify the reported defect or error by correction or replacement of the Software, to a refund of the Subscription charges paid under this Agreement in whole or in part as appropriate.

3.9 Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that in entering into this Agreement and the documents referred to in it, it does not rely on, and shall have no remedy in respect of, any statement, representation, warranty or understanding (whether negligently or innocently made) of any person (whether party to this Agreement or not) other than as expressly set out in this Agreement. The only remedy available for breach of warranty shall be for breach of contract under the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this clause shall, however, operate to limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

4.3 Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits the liability of Infomill for death or personal injury caused by its negligence or fraudulent misrepresentation.

CUSTOMER’S ATTENTION IS IN PARTICULAR DRAWN TO CLAUSE 4.4

4.4 Subject to clause 4.3, the liability of Infomill to Customer for direct loss or damage whether in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation or otherwise arising out of or in connection with its performance or its total or partial failure to perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in respect of the Software and Services shall be limited to the refund of the Subscription charges that have been paid by Customer to Infomill under this Agreement.

4.5 Infomill shall not in any circumstances be liable whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise for any incidental, special, consequential or indirect loss or damage howsoever arising and of whatsoever nature including but not limited to loss of profit, loss of contracts, loss of business opportunities, loss of revenue, loss of data, loss of operation time, loss of operational effectiveness, loss of anticipated savings or loss of use of any equipment or process suffered or incurred directly or indirectly by Customer in connection with or arising out of the use, furnishing or functioning of the Software or the provision of the Services.

4.10 In the event of any claim or demand being made or action brought against the Customer, the Customer agrees: (i) to notify Infomill as soon as the Customer becomes aware regarding the Software infringement and (ii) at its own expense Infomill shall conduct all negotiations for settlement of the claim and any legal proceedings that may arise therefrom.

5. CONFIDENTIALITY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

5.4.1 Is or becomes public knowledge otherwise than through the default or negligence of the receiving party;

5.4.2 The receiving party can prove was in the possession of the receiving party without restriction before the date of receipt from the disclosing party;
