Maintenance Updates released by Xerox will only be issued for the then most current release of the Licensed Software.
  3. Your expectations for Software Support:
    1. Solely for purposes of Xerox performing its obligations under this Agreement, you agree to give Xerox reasonable access to the Licensed Software, the system(s) in connection with which the Licensed Software is used, the Licensed Software documentation and other relevant records and documents and shall provide such other reasonable assistance as Xerox may request.
    2. Xerox may provide Software Support to you if you have customized your Licensed Software implementation but does not guarantee that it will do so. Xerox will only guarantee the ability to support the Licensed Software in the state it is delivered and when installed, using recommended installation procedures and system configurations. Xerox reserves the right to refuse or deny support should you not be in compliance with the system configuration which can be found at http://docushare.xerox.com/products/systemreqs. Xerox's only obligation in the event that a customized system fails is to help you restore the Licensed Software to its original state, and to assist you in preserving data when you attempt to restore such Licensed Software to its unmodified state. However, Xerox may charge additional fees for such support. Xerox does not guarantee that you will be able to successfully restore modified Licensed Software to its unmodified state or that you will not lose data in the process of such attempted restoration.
    3. You shall perform preliminary diagnosis of problems to eliminate those due to operating system, hardware faults and user error.
    4. You shall provide an accurate and complete description of the problem to support. You shall assist in problem resolution by providing copies of logs and/or files deemed necessary by support. All such materials shall be considered confidential.
    5. You will install new software maintenance releases within a reasonable time of receiving them.
    6. You shall perform regularly scheduled system backups and maintenance in addition to keeping anti-virus software current.
9. Support Exclusions: This Agreement does not cover support for hardware or for any software other than the Licensed Software or if you do not meet the adequate system configuration for operating the Licensed Software.
10. In the event you discontinue Software Support and then decide to obtain such service any subsequent year, you must pay Xerox for the then current support period and also the support service charge for each prior period in which you failed to order support service from Xerox.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Limitation of Liability: In no event will Xerox be liable to you for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages (including but not limited to damages related to data loss, LOST PROFITS or business interruption) in any way arising out of or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. In addition, Xerox's liability to you for direct damages will in no event exceed the license fee you paid for the Licensed Software.
2. Greater Damage Rights: Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not be applicable.
3. U.S. Government Restricted Rights: The Licensed Software and accompanying documentation are provided with Restricted Rights. You agree to meet all requirements necessary to ensure that the Federal Government will honor such rights. Disclosure, use or reproduction of the Licensed Software and accompanying documentation are subject to restrictions set forth in the Commercial Computer-Restricted Rights clause at Federal Acquisition Regulation 52.227-19, when applicable, or in the Department of Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplement 252.227-7013.
4. Neither party shall be liable to the other for its failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder during any period in which such performance is delayed by circumstances beyond its reasonable control (including, but not limited to work stoppages, fires, civil disobedience, Acts of God and similar occurrences), provided that the party experiencing such delay promptly notified the other party of the delays.
5. No delays or failure of Xerox to exercise any right or remedy will operate as waiver thereof. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement for a particular situation shall be deemed or constitute a permanent waiver of such provision for any other situation, nor shall such waiver constitute a waiver for the same situation if it should recur.
6. Severability: If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid by any law, rule, order or regulation of any government, or by the final determination of any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity will not affect the enforceability of any other provisions not held to be invalid.
7. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A. without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties specifically agree that the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, as such may be amended from time to time, shall not apply to this Agreement.
Entire Agreement - This Agreement and any Xerox order agreement that you may have used to order DocuShare constitute the entire agreement of the parties as to the subject matter thereof, and supersedes any and all prior oral and written understandings and agreements as to that subject matter. To the extent terms and conditions in your Xerox order agreement conflict with this DocuShare End User License Agreement, this DocuShare End User License Agreement shall prevail. The pre-printed terms and conditions contained in any purchase order or other ordering document submitted with respect to the Licensed Software shall have no binding effect of Xerox and will not modify this Agreement in any way.
