Customer may not use or reproduce any trademark, service mark or trade name of LoopNet or its licensors without LoopNet’s written consent. Nothing in this Agreement will restrict LoopNet from freely using for any purpose, without compensation, any Customer idea, suggestion, enhancement or other feedback relating to the Product or new products, features or tools.

 

12. No Warranties.

   
THE PRODUCT AND ALL PARTS THEREOF ARE PROVIDED ‘AS IS’, ‘WITH ALL FAULTS’, AND ‘AS AVAILABLE’. THE LOOPNET PARTIES DO NOT MAKE, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDE AND DISCLAIM, ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION (a) MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR ORDINARY PURPOSES AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WORKMANLIKE EFFORT, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NO ENCUMBRANCES OR LIENS, (b) THE QUALITY, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS OR COMPLETENESS OF THE PRODUCT, (c) THOSE ARISING THROUGH COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE, (d) THE PRODUCT CONFORMING TO ANY FUNCTION, DEMONSTRATION OR PROMISE BY ANY OF THE LOOPNET PARTIES, AND (e) THAT ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE PRODUCT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR COMPLETELY SECURE.

 

13. Limitation on Liability.

 

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE LOOPNET PARTIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, COST OR DAMAGE SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY FAULTS, INTERRUPTIONS OR DELAYS IN THE PRODUCT OR ANY INACCURACIES, ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE PRODUCT, REGARDLESS OF HOW SUCH FAULTS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELAYS, INACCURACIES, ERRORS OR OMISSIONS ARISE, OR FOR ANY UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE PRODUCT. LOOPNET PARTIES’ AGGREGATE, CUMULATIVE LIABILITY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND USE OF THE PRODUCT SHALL BE LIMITED TO CUSTOMER’S ACTUAL, RECOVERABLE DIRECT DAMAGES, IF ANY, WHICH IN NO EVENT SHALL EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES ACTUALLY PAID TO LOOPNET UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DURING THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE SUCH CLAIM AROSE. RECOVERY OF THIS AMOUNT SHALL BE CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY APPLICABLE DAMAGES. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL ANY OF THE LOOPNET PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR LOST PROFITS HOWSOEVER ARISING OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF, BASED ON, RESULTING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY USE OF THE PRODUCT, EVEN IF LOOPNET HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IN THIS PARAGRAPH IS INDEPENDENT OF CUSTOMER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY DESCRIBED ABOVE AND SURVIVES IN THE EVENT SUCH REMEDY FAILS. NO ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT BY CUSTOMER MORE THAN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION HAS ARISEN. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION APPLY WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CAUSE OR FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER THE DAMAGES ARE GROUNDED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION.

 

14. Indemnification.

 

Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the LoopNet Parties from and against any third-party action, suit, claim or demand and any associated losses, expenses, damages, costs and other liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising out of or relating to Customer’s (and Customer’s users’) use or misuse of the Product, information provided to LoopNet through the Product, or violation of this Agreement. LoopNet shall give Customer prompt written notice of such claim, demand or action (provided, however, that LoopNet’s failure to provide such notice shall not relieve Customer of its indemnification obligations except to the extent Customer is prejudiced thereby). Customer shall cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any such claim or demand. If the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to any of the LoopNet Parties with respect to any claim, demand or action under any laws, rules or regulations for any reason, LoopNet shall be entitled to seek in a court of competent jurisdiction Customer’s contribution to such claim, demand or action under any legal or equitable theories available to it. This Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

 

15. Assignment.

 

The parties’ obligations hereunder are binding on their successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Customer may not assign, sublicense or otherwise transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement nor any rights granted hereunder, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of LoopNet; provided, however, that Customer may, with written notice to LoopNet, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any successor to all or substantially all of the business or assets of Customer (by merger or otherwise) so long as (a) such assignment shall not result in the elimination of any then-existing LoopNet revenue stream from Customer or such third party and (b) such assignee does not directly or indirectly compete with LoopNet or any of its affiliates.
