that such caching is not an infringement of any of Customer's
intellectual property rights or any third party's intellectual property
rights.
- CPU Usage.
Customer agrees that Customer shall not use excessive amounts of CPU
processing on any of CYKIC SOFTWARE's servers. Any violation of this
policy may result in corrective action by CYKIC SOFTWARE, including

any and all Services, or termination of this Agreement, which actions

exclusive remedy, and CYKIC SOFTWARE's sole obligation, for breach of

THE OTHER PARTY BY A THIRD PARTY, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH CLAIM OR DAMAGES.

the aggregate, whether based in contract, tort or any other legal
theory (including strict liability), other than claims based on fraud
or willful misconduct. The limitations contained in Section 15(c) shall
not apply to Customer's indemnification obligations.

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, CYKIC SOFTWARE's maximum
liability under this Agreement for all damages, losses, costs and
causes of actions from any and all claims (whether in contract, tort,

liability to Customer, any of its customers or any Reseller Customer
due to such corrective action by CYKIC SOFTWARE.

All rights and restrictions contained in this Agreement may be
exercised and shall be applicable and binding only to the extent that
they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended to be limited

illegal, invalid or unenforceable. If any provision or portion of any

written notice to Customer via e-mail to the Customer's e-mail address
as maintained in CYKIC SOFTWARE's billing records.
- Waiver.
No failure or delay by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right or remedy by any party preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or
remedy. No express waiver or assent by any party hereto to any breach
of or default in any term or condition of this Agreement shall
constitute a waiver of or an assent to any succeeding breach of or
default in the same or any other term or condition hereof.
- Assignment; Successors.
Customer may not assign or transfer this Agreement, or any of its
rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of
CYKIC SOFTWARE. Any attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing
provision shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever.

duties and exercising its rights hereunder, without the consent of
Customer. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.
