(i) The Licensor does not provide the Licensee with access to the source code except on the financial and legal terms of a separate Software Source Code Access Agreement. Unless expressly stated, the Licensor does not warrant to safeguard the source code to the Software or to place it in escrow for the Licensee's or any third party's benefit.
(ii) In the event that the Licensee has obtained rights from the Licensor to access the source code to the Software, the Licensee warrants to use the source code only for the purpose of adapting the Software to the Licensee's specific setup and not for any other purpose other than facilitating the interoperability of the Software with the Licensee's software and hardware.

The Licensee shall be responsible for collecting the Software at its expense from Licensor's location at a time mutually acceptable to the Parties (hereafter the "Delivery").
2. DESCRIPTION OF OTHER RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS.

The Software is licensed as a single product. Its component parts may not be separated for any purpose.

Upon completion, the Licensee shall deliver to the Licensor a signed declaration certifying compliance with this subsection. The warranty provisions of this Agreement shall expire automatically with Licensee's failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement as well as Licensee's failure to pay Licensor all or part of a license fee.

Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to certain Licensees, and the rights of such Licensees shall be limited to the minimum rights afforded under the laws of such jurisdictions in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement.
(c) In no event, other than the case of Section 2(c)(ii) hereof and the violation of Licensor's intellectual property rights under Section 3 hereof, shall the cumulative liability of the Licensee to the Licensor nor that of the Licensor to the Licensee for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether in law or equity, and in contract, tort, including negligence, or otherwise) exceed the amount paid by Licensee for the Software.
8. THIRD PARTY LICENSES.
The Licensee acknowledges that the use of the Software may invalidate any guarantee and or warranty expressed in its other software license agreement(s) that it may have accepted. Use of the Software does not supersede or provide any remedy for any guarantee or warranty that may be invalidated.
