6.2 General Disclaimer.  EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED IN SECTION 6.1 (LIMITED WARRANTY), AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SKETCHBOOK MAKES, AND LICENSEE RECEIVES, NO WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS, OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT, OR WARRANTIES OTHERWISE IMPLIED BY STATUTE OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE) WITH RESPECT TO ANY SKETCHBOOK MATERIALS OR SERVICES.  ANY STATEMENTS OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE SKETCHBOOK MATERIALS OR SERVICES AND THEIR FEATURES OR FUNCTIONALITY IN THE SKETCHBOOK MATERIALS OR ANY COMMUNICATION WITH LICENSEE ARE FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY, AND DO NOT CONSTITUTE A WARRANTY, REPRESENTATION, OR CONDITION.  WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, SKETCHBOOK DOES NOT WARRANT THAT:  (a) THE OPERATION OR OUTPUT OF THE SKETCHBOOK MATERIALS OR SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, ACCURATE, RELIABLE, OR COMPLETE, WHETHER OR NOT UNDER SUPPORT BY SKETCHBOOK OR ANY THIRD PARTY; (b) ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED BY SKETCHBOOK OR ANY THIRD PARTY; OR (c) SKETCHBOOK OR ANY THIRD PARTY WILL RESOLVE ANY PARTICULAR SUPPORT REQUEST OR THAT SUCH RESOLUTION WILL MEET LICENSEE’S REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS.  NOTHING IN THE FOREGOING RESTRICTS THE EFFECT OF WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS WHICH MAY BE IMPLIED BY LAW WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, RESTRICTED OR MODIFIED NOTWITHSTANDING A CONTRACTUAL RESTRICTION TO THE CONTRARY.

6.3  Disclaimer Applicable to Professional Users.  To the extent the Sketchbook Materials and/or Services are used by Licensee as professional tools, Licensee acknowledges and accepts the Sketchbook Materials and Services have limited capabilities and are in no way a substitute for Licensee’s professional judgment and/or expertise.  The Sketchbook Materials and Services are intended only to assist Licensee with design, ideation, and/or other creative activities and are not a substitute for Licensee’s own independent design, analysis, simulation, estimation, testing, and/or other professional activities, including those with respect to product stress, safety and utility.  Licensee is responsible for the supervision, management, and control of the Sketchbook Materials and Services and the results of using the Sketchbook Materials and Services.  This responsibility includes, without limitation, the determination of appropriate uses for the Sketchbook Materials and Services and the selection of the Sketchbook Materials, Services and other computer programs and materials to help achieve intended results.  Sketchbook will not be liable in any manner whatsoever for the results obtained through use of the Sketchbook Materials or Services.

9.2 No Assignment; Insolvency.  Licensee may not assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder (whether by purchase of stock or assets, merger, change of control, operation of law, or otherwise) without Sketchbook’s express prior written consent, which may be withheld in Sketchbook's sole and absolute discretion, and any unauthorized purported assignment by Licensee will be void.  In the context of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding, Licensee acknowledges and agrees this Agreement is and shall be treated as an executory contract that may not be assumed and/or assigned without Sketchbook’s express prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Sketchbook’s sole and absolute discretion whether pursuant to Section 365(c)(1) of Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable law respecting the treatment of executory contracts within bankruptcy. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Sketchbook may assign or sub-contract any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement at any time.

9.3 Exceptions to Prohibitions; Severability. 

        9.3.1 Exceptions to Prohibitions. The prohibitions contained in this Agreement will not apply where and to the extent applicable law does not allow such prohibitions to be enforced.  Licensee may have other rights under the laws of the state or country where the Sketchbook Materials are acquired, and this Agreement does not change Licensee’s rights under the laws of such state or country if and to the extent the laws of such state or country do not permit this Agreement to do so.  Licensee will bear the burden of proof to demonstrate that applicable law does not allow (a) the enforcement of such prohibitions; or (b) this Agreement to change particular rights in a state or country (and that Licensee has not exceeded the bounds of the unenforceable prohibitions and unchangeable rights).

        9.3.2 Severability. If and to the extent any provision of this Agreement is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable law, such provision or such portion thereof will be ineffective as to the jurisdiction in which it is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable to the extent of its illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability and will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties.  The illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of such provision in that jurisdiction will not in any way affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of such provision or any other provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

9.4 No Waiver.  No term or provision of this Agreement will be considered waived, and no breach excused, unless such waiver is in writing signed on behalf of the party against which the waiver is asserted.  No waiver (whether express or implied) will constitute consent to, waiver of, or excuse of any other, different, or subsequent breach.

9.5 Language.  The English language version of this Agreement is legally binding in case of any inconsistencies between the English version and any translations.  If Licensee purchased the license for the Sketchbook Materials in Canada, Licensee agrees to the following: The parties hereto confirm that it is their wish that this Agreement, as well as other documents relating hereto, including notices, have been and shall be written in the English language only. Les parties ci-dessus confirment leur désir que cet accord ainsi que tous les documents, y compris tous avis qui s'y rattachent, soient rédigés en langue anglaise.

9.8 U.S. Government Rights.  For U.S. Government procurements, all Sketchbook Materials are deemed to be commercial computer software as defined in FAR 12.212 and subject to restricted rights as defined in FAR Section 52.227-19 "Commercial Computer Software - Restricted Rights" and DFARS 227.7202, “Rights in Commercial Computer Software or Commercial Computer Software Documentation,” as applicable, and any successor regulations. Any use, modification, reproduction release, performance, display or disclosure of the Sketchbook Materials by the U.S. Government shall be solely in accordance with license rights and restrictions described herein.

9.9 Export Control.  Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the Sketchbook Materials and Services (including any data submitted by Licensee in connection with a Service and any Licensee-specific output generated by a Service) are subject to the export control and trade sanctions laws, rules and regulations of the United States and may be subject to the export control and trade sanctions laws, rules and regulations of other countries, including but not limited to countries where Licensee is located or operates. Together, these United States and other country laws, rules, and regulations are referred to as the “Export Control Laws.” Licensee will comply with the Export Control Laws in all respects. Licensee represents, warrants and covenants that neither Licensee nor Licensee’s Personnel (a) are a citizen or resident of, or located within, a nation or region that is subject to U.S. trade sanctions or other significant trade restrictions (including, without limitation, the Crimean peninsula, Cuba, Iran, Sudan, Syria and North Korea), (b) are identified on any applicable government restricted party lists (including, without limitation, the U.S. Treasury Department's Sectoral Sanctions List and List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Party List, Entity List and Unverified List and the U.S. Department of State’s proliferation-related lists), (c) will, unless otherwise authorized under the Export Control Laws, use Sketchbook Materials or Services in connection with any restricted end use, including, without limitation, design, analysis, simulation, estimation, testing, or other activities related to nuclear activities, chemical/biological weapons, rocket systems or unmanned air vehicles, or (d) will use the Sketchbook Materials or Services to disclose, transfer, download, export, or re-export, directly or indirectly, any Licensee-specific output generated by the Sketchbook Materials or Services, Licensee content, third party content, or any other content or material to any country, entity, or party that is ineligible to receive such items under the Export Control Laws or other laws or regulations to which Licensee may be subject.  Licensee understands that the requirements and restrictions of the Export Control Laws as applicable to Licensee may vary depending on the Sketchbook Materials or Services provided under this Agreement and may change over time.  If Licensee learns that Sketchbook Materials or Services have been provided to any person or entity in violation of the Export Control Laws, Licensee will notify Sketchbook immediately. If Sketchbook determines that a violation of the Export Control Laws should be disclosed to the applicable export control authority, Licensee shall provide such assistance and information as Sketchbook reasonably requests in connection with such disclosure.

9.10 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and any other terms referenced in this Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties (and merge and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, discussions, communications, agreements, representations, warranties, advertising or understandings) with respect to the subject matter hereof, except that particular Sketchbook Materials may be subject to additional or different terms associated with such Sketchbook Materials.  The parties acknowledge that, in entering into this Agreement, they are not relying on any agreements, discussions, communications, agreements, representations, warranties, advertising or understandings other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement. 

9.11 Changes to Agreement.  Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Sketchbook may add to or change the terms of this Agreement from time to time and it is Licensee’s responsibility to check these terms from time to time to ensure Licensee remains in compliance with all terms of this Agreement.  Sketchbook will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice of changes to Licensee before they are effective; however, its failure to do so shall not relieve Licensee of its responsibility to review periodically the terms of this Agreement as provided in this Section 9.11 (Changes to Agreement).  Any other modifications to this Agreement will be invalid unless agreed to in a writing signed by an authorized representative of Sketchbook.
