|
|
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Cypress

reserves the right to make changes to the Software without notice. Cypress
|
|
does not assume any liability arising out of the application or use of
|

|
damage, injury or death ("High Risk Product"). If you include any Software or
|
|
Cypress product in a High Risk Product, you assume all risk of such use and
|
|
agree to indemnify Cypress and its suppliers against all liability. No
|
|
computing device can be absolutely secure. Therefore, despite security
|
|
measures implemented in Cypress hardware or software products, Cypress does
|
|
not assume any liability arising out of any security breach, such as
|
|
unauthorized access to or use of a Cypress product.
|
|
|
|
9. Limitation of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
|
|
LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL CYPRESS OR ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS, OR DISTRIBUTORS BE

|
LIABLE FOR ANY LOST REVENUE, PROFIT, OR DATA, OR FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
|
|
CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS
|
|
OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE USE OF OR
|
|
INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE EVEN IF CYPRESS OR ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS, OR
|
|
DISTRIBUTORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO
|
|
EVENT SHALL CYPRESS' OR ITS SUPPLIERS', RESELLERS', OR DISTRIBUTORS' TOTAL
|
|
LIABILITY TO YOU, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR
|
|
OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE GREATER OF US$500 OR THE PRICE PAID BY YOU FOR THE
|
|

|
|
WARRANTY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS
|

|
|
ALL OR PORTIONS OF THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
|

|
|
party's successors and assigns, provided that you may not assign or transfer
|

this Agreement, in whole or in part, without Cypress' written consent. This
|
|
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of

|
|
bring legal action in any venue in order to protect or enforce its
|
|
intellectual property rights. No failure of either party to exercise or
|
|
enforce any of its rights under this Agreement will act as a waiver of such
|
|
rights. If any portion of this Agreement is found to be void or
|
|
unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full
|
|
force and effect. This Agreement is the complete and exclusive agreement
