NEXB DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S OR ITS END USERS’ REQUIREMENTS, OR THAT THE OPERATION OF THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS IN THE SERVICE WILL BE CORRECTED. CUSTOMER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE USE OF THE SERVICE AND ALL RESULTS OF SUCH USE IS SOLELY AT CUSTOMER’S AND ITS END USERS’ OWN RISK.

IN SUCH EVENT, NEXB’S WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW IN SUCH JURISDICTION.

8.	INDEMNIFICATION

(a)	nexB will defend and indemnify Customer for all reasonable costs arising from a claim that Service furnished and used within the scope of this Agreement infringes a U.S. copyright or U.S. patent provided that: (i) Customer notifies nexB in writing within 30 days after Customer learns or should have learned of the claim; (ii) nexB has sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations; and (iii) Customer provides nexB with the assistance, information, and authority necessary to perform the above.

(b)	nexB's aggregate liability with respect to its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to the Service or otherwise shall not exceed the Subscription Fees received by nexB from Customer during the 12 month period immediately preceding the event that gave rise to the claim.
