8. Software warranty and disclaimer of warranties; Software warranty remedy; Consequential damages
8.1 Limited Warranty. Baloota hereby warrants to Licensee that the Software will perform substantially in accordance with the functional description applicable thereto at the download site if used in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any applicable directions or requirements in the Documentation. The foregoing warranty is extended to the initial Licensee only, is not transferable, and shall be in effect for thirty (30) days immediately following Licensee’s receipt of the Software (the “Software Warranty Period”). Licensee’s sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of Baloota and its suppliers and licensors for any breach of this limited warranty will be, at Baloota’s option, repair or replacement of the Software, if such breach is reported prior to the expiration of the Warranty Period to Baloota or the Baloota authorized distributor that supplied the Software to Licensee (the “Software Warranty Remedy”). Baloota may require that Licensee return or certify the destruction of all copies of the Software to Baloota or to the authorized distributor in order to receive the designated remedy hereunder. Any replacement Software provided pursuant to this Section will be covered by the warranty in this Section for the remainder of the original Software Warranty Period or for 30 days from the date on which Licensee receives such repaired or replacement Software, whichever is longer.
8.2 Disclaimer of Warranties. Except as expressly provided in this EULA, the Software is provided “AS IS” without warranty of any kind, and Baloota hereby disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, oral or written, with respect to the Software, including, without limitation, any and all implied warranties as to the condition, noninfringement, merchantability, design, operation, or fitness for any purpose.
No oral or written information or advice given by Baloota, its resellers and/or its agents or employees, shall create a warranty or in any way increase or modify the scope of the warranties expressly set forth in this EULA.
If Licensee’s legal jurisdiction provides that a certain implied warranty may not be disclaimed, such implied warranty shall only apply to defects discovered during the period of the express Software Warranty Period provided herein. There is no implied warranty for defects discovered after the expiration of such Software Warranty Period. Some legal jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so these limitations may not apply to Licensee.
Except as expressly provided in this EULA, Baloota does not warrant that the Software will meet all requirements of the licensee, or that the operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free, or that any.
Baloota is not responsible for any defect or error resulting from: (1) the modification, misuse, or damage of the Software by parties other than Baloota or parties performing as a contractor to, and at the direction of, Baloota; (2) the Licensee’s failure to implement all bug fixes or other defect corrections which Baloota makes available; (3) use of the Software in a manner inconsistent with the directions provided in the documentation or as permitted by this agreement; (4) any computer virus; (5) any defect in or failure or any third party’s individual computer, equipment, network, or software, or for any user error.
Baloota does not warrant and shall have no liability with respect to non-Baloota products or services including third-party software or hardware, internet connections, or computer networks.
8.3 Consequential Damages. In no event shall Baloota be liable to Licensee for any loss of or damage to data or other personal or business information, lost profit, physical damage to Licensee’s personal Device, loss of use of the Software, or for any special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with this agreement, including the installation, use or performance, or inability to use the Software, even if Baloota has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
9. Limitation of Liabilities
Baloota may provide the Software at no charge at no charge to Licensee. In consideration for, and as a fundamental and express condition of enabling use of the software, and notwithstanding any provision in this agreement to the contrary, Baloota shall not have any liability for any matter arising out of the subject matter of this agreement, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise except for the software warranty remedy. The limitations herein shall apply even if the software warranty remedy does not fully compensate Licensee for any or all losses, or even if Baloota knew or should have known about the possibility of consequential damages.
In any event, Baloota’s liability under this Agreement shall be limited to $100, or the amount of money which you paid to Baloota over the twelve month period under this Agreement immediately preceding any cause of action.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability such as these stated above. In such case, these limitation on liability may not apply to you. Instead, in such jurisdictions, the foregoing limitations of liability shall apply only to the extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdictions.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Baloota and Baloota’s officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees from any claim, demand, damages or other losses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, asserted by any third-party resulting from or arising out of your use of the Services, or any breach by you of these EULA.
10. Compliance with export laws
Licensee acknowledges that the Software is subject to laws and regulations of the United States restricting the export thereof to foreign jurisdictions and agrees to comply with all applicable United States and foreign international laws, including, without limitation, the rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by the Bureau of Export Administration, United States Department of Commerce. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee shall not download, and if downloaded shall not install or shall immediately uninstall and destroy, the Software if Licensee’s download, installation or use of the Software is prohibited under applicable laws. By installing or using the Software, Licensee agrees to the foregoing and certifies that it is not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country or on any list of countries to which the United States has embargoed goods or on the United States Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nations or the United States Commerce Department’s Table of Denial Orders. Licensee shall not export, re-export, transfer or divert directly or indirectly, the Software, Documentation or other information or materials provided hereunder, or the output thereof, to any restricted place or person for which the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction requires any export license or other governmental approval at the time of export without first obtaining such license or approval. Baloota has no responsibility for compliance with such laws and regulations by Licensee. Licensee hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Baloota from and against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent such claims arise out of any breach of this Section

11.4 Severability. In the event that any part or provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason in any jurisdiction, only that individual part or provision, and not the entire Agreement, will be inoperative.
