7. Limitations of Liability 

SEQUOIA's  liability  (whether  in  contract,  tort,  or  otherwise;  and  notwithstanding  any  fault,  negligence,  strict  liability  or 
product  liability)  with  regard  to  any  Product  (including, but not  limited  to,  any  breach  of or  default by  SEQUOIA)  will  in  no

8. Indemnification by Customer 

Customer acknowledges that the Products are designed and manufactured for use in non-critical, monitoring situations.  If 
Customer chooses to purchase a Product or Products for use in applications that could result in damages in excess of the 
price of the Product if the Product does not operate properly or otherwise fails, Customer acknowledges and agrees that it is 
Customer’s responsibility to provide for redundancy and/or other safety or back-up measures sufficient to assure that failure 
of a Product(s) will not cause such damages.  Customer agrees that it will defend and hold SEQUOIA harmless from any 
and  all  claims  and  costs  (including  but  not  limited  to  attorney’s  fees  and  other  costs  of  defense  against  such  claims)  in 
excess  of  the  price  of  the  Products  arising  directly  or  indirectly  from  such  Customer’s  use  of  the  Products.    Such 
indemnification  is  a  critical  part  of  the  consideration  being  provided  by  Customer  (over  and  above  the  price  paid  for  the 
Product(s)) for the right to use the Products for such purposes and Customer shall not use a Product or Products for such 
purposes if it is unwilling or unable to provide such indemnification. 

9. Statute of Limitations 

Customer will not commence any action based on breach of warranty with respect to any Product more than 30 months after 
SEQUOIA's delivery of such Product. 

10. Software

SEQUOIA.    SEQUOIA  hereby  grants  Customer  a  nonexclusive  license  to  use  such  software  solely  for  the  purpose  of 
operating  Products.  Customer  will  not:  use  any  such  software  for  any  other  purpose;  modify,  adapt,  translate,  or  create 
derivative works based on any such software; or disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer any such software. No title to 
or ownership of any software or intellectual property rights are transferred to Customer.
