If the Product or any part of it is in NEDGRAPHICSâ opinion likely to become the subject of a claim of infringement of Third Party IP Rights, or if it is adjudicatively determined that the Product or any part of it infringes Third Party IP Rights, NEDGRAPHICS may at its option (i) obtain for you a license or right to use the Third Party IP Rights so you can continue to use the Product, or (ii) replace or modify the Product with other suitable and reasonably equivalent non- infringing technology or parts, or (iii) if it is not commercially reasonable to take the actions described in clauses (i) or (ii) in this sentence, terminate your License and, if you return the Product to NEDGRAPHICS, refund a portion of the license fee paid by you equal to the then-current reasonable commercial value (if any) of the Product. NEDGRAPHICS shall not be responsible, liable, or obligated to indemnify or reimburse you if the alleged infringement arises out of (i) compliance with your requirements or specifications that are outside NEDGRAPHICSâ standard specifications for the Product, (ii) any addition or incorporation to or modification of the Product at your request,
(iii) any combination of the Product with any product or software not provided by NEDGRAPHICS, (iv) use of a version of the Product that was not, at the time that the claim arose, the current unaltered version of the Product provided by NEDGRAPHICS hereunder, including, without limitation, your failure to install any updates containing modifications to make the Product non-infringing; or (v) use of the Product in the practice of a process or system other than that for which it was intended.

IN NO CASE SHALL NEDGRAPHICSâ TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS, SERVICES, ACCESS, AND/OR THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, UNDER STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM FOR THE NEDGRAPHICS PRODUCT, SERVICES, OR ACCESS GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. YOU AGREE THAT THIS AMOUNT IS SUFFICIENT TO SATISFY THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THAT THIS AMOUNT IS A FAIR AND REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF ANY LOSS AND DAMAGE LIKELY TO BE SUFFERED IN THE EVENT OF ANY WRONGFUL ACT OR OMISSION BY NEDGRAPHICS OR ITS SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS, AND THAT THE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, OR ACCESS REFLECTS THIS ALLOCATION OF RISK.
