Following expiration, this Agreement will renew for successive terms of the same length unless a party gives notice of termination to the other party sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the term. XXX may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving Owner thirty (30) days written notice. Either party may terminate this Agreement thirty (30) days after the other party's receipt of notice that such party is in material breach of any of the terms or conditions set forth in this Agreement, unless such party cures such breach within such thirty (30) day cure period. Following termination or expiration, Sections 5, and 8, 9, 10 and 11 will survive.

9. Limitation of Liability. NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, LOST PROFITS, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR OWNER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 8 AND A BREACH OF SECTION 7 OR 10 OF THE AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY'S LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY XXX TO OWNER IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE LIABILITY OR $100,000, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. THE EXISTENCE OF ONE OR MORE CLAIMS WILL NOT ENLARGE THIS LIMIT. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS SECTION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT AND THAT IN ITS ABSENCE, THE ECONOMIC TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT.

10. Confidential Information. Each party ("Receiving Party") acknowledges and agrees that in performing its obligations under and during the term of this Agreement, it may come into possession of, or be exposed to, confidential and proprietary information of the other Party ("Disclosing Party"). The Receiving Party agrees that it shall not use such Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except as is strictly necessary to further the goals of this Agreement. The Receiving Party agrees that it shall not disclose Confidential Information to any third parties without the Disclosing Party's prior written consent, and that it shall safeguard such Confidential Information as it would its own proprietary information, but in no event with anything less than reasonable care. "Confidential Information" as used in this Agreement shall mean any information or materials of the Disclosing Party which the Disclosing Party clearly marks as confidential, or which the Receiving Party knows or has reason to know may be confidential by the very nature of the information or the method by which such information was transmitted. Confidential Information shall not include information: (i) which the Receiving Party had obtained under no obligation of confidentiality prior to the Effective Date; (ii) which is or becomes available to the general public through no wrongful act or omission of either party; or (iii) made available by a third party with no obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party. The use and disclosure restrictions of this Section 5 shall not apply where a Receiving Party is under court or government order to disclose such Confidential Information, provided that the Receiving Party informs the relevant authority of the confidential nature of the requested information, seeks a protective order for the same, and promptly notifies the Disclosing Party of the disclosure order.

11. Miscellaneous. Each party hereto is an independent contractor of the other and neither is an employee, agent, partner or joint venturer of the other. Neither party shall make any commitment, by contract or otherwise, binding upon the other or represent that it has any authority to do so. This Agreement is not assignable or transferable by Owner without the prior written consent of XXX and any attempt to do so shall be void. XXX may assign this Agreement in connection with any sale of the part of the Sites using the Content. Any notice, report, approval or consent required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing to the address specified above. Any waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No provision of the Agreement will be waived by any act, omission or knowledge of a party or its agents or employees except by an instrument in writing expressly waiving such provision and signed by a duly authorized officer of the waiving party. If any provision of this Agreement is adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been made in, and shall be construed pursuant to the laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of laws provisions thereof. Any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be commenced in the courts located in the State of California, and each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts. Any waivers or amendments shall be effective only if made in writing signed by a representative of the respective parties authorized to bind the parties. Both parties agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties, and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements and communications relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
