|
|
patent infringement lawsuit against Us or any of Our licensees.

# 4. DISCLAIMER
|
|
|
|
THE CONTRIBUTION IS PROVIDED "AS IS". MORE PARTICULARLY, ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
|
|
WARRANTIES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
|
|
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE
|
|
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED BY YOU TO US AND BY US TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH
|
|
WARRANTIES CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED, SUCH WARRANTY IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE
|
|
MINIMUM PERIOD PERMITTED BY LAW.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# 5. CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE WAIVER
|
|
|
|
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL YOU OR US BE
|
|
LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF DATA,
|
|
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL AND EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT
|
|
OF THIS AGREEMENT REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT OR
|
|
OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# 6. APPROXIMATION OF DISCLAIMER AND DAMAGE WAIVER
|
|
|
|
IF THE DISCLAIMER AND DAMAGE WAIVER MENTIONED IN SECTION 4 AND SECTION 5 CANNOT
|
|
BE GIVEN LEGAL EFFECT UNDER APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW, REVIEWING COURTS SHALL APPLY
|
|
LOCAL LAW THAT MOST CLOSELY APPROXIMATES AN ABSOLUTE WAIVER OF ALL CIVIL
|
|
LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THE CONTRIBUTION.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# 7. TERM
|
|
|
|

|
|
shall survive such termination and shall remain in full force thereafter. For
|
|
the avoidance of doubt, Contributions that are already licensed under a free and
|
|
open source license at the date of the termination shall remain in full force
|
|
after the termination of this Agreement.
|
|
|

|
|
provision will be replaced to the extent possible with a provision that comes
|
|
closest to the meaning of the original provision and that is enforceable. The
|
|
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall apply notwithstanding any
|
|
failure of essential purpose of this Agreement or any limited remedy to the
|
|
maximum extent possible under law.
|
|
|
|
8.4 You agree to notify Us of any facts or circumstances of which you become
|
