WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY REGARDING OR RELATING TO THE INDEX. CSI
EXPRESSLY AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, RESULTS, AND NONINFRINGEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE INDEX AND WITH RESPECT TO
THE USE OF THE INDEX. CSI MAKES NO WARRANTY, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY OBLIGATION, THAT: (I)

to bind CSI to any oral representations or warranty concerning the Index. Any written
representation or warranty not expressly contained in this Agreement will not be enforceable.
Limitation of Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY
DAMAGES THAT YOU MAY INCUR FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL DAMAGES
REFERENCED HEREIN, AND ALL DIRECT OR GENERAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF CONTRACT, NEGLIENCE, OR ANY
OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY), THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF CSI AND ANY OF ITS LICENSORS UNDER ANY
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY HEREUNDER SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FEES PAID BY
SUBSCRIBER TO CSI IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT WHICH CAUSED DAMAGES. TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CSI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE, UNDER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING, HOWEVER CAUSED AND WHETHER
ARISING UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE:
LOSS OF USE;
LOSS OR DAMAGE TO OR CORRUPTION OF DATA;
THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF SENSITIVE, VALUABLE, OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO YOUR FAILURE TO MAKE AND RETAIN REASONABLE BACK-UPS OF YOUR DATA; AND
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE INDEX,
AND/OR ANY THIRD PARTY CONTENT.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO SUBSCRIBER. IF ANY EXCLUSION,
DISCLAIMER OR OTHER PROVISION CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT IS HELD TO BE INVALID FOR ANY REASON BY A
COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND CSI BECOMES LIABLE THEREBY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT COULD
OTHERWISE BE LIMITED, SUCH LIABILITY WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WILL NOT EXCEED THE
AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID FOR SUBSCRIBER'S USE OF THE INDEX.
Indemnification. Subscriber shall defend (at CSI's
election), indemnify and hold CSI and its officers, directors, employees, licensors, representatives and/or
agents harmless at all times from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs, and/or expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) in
connection with or as a result of any claim that arises from any breach of this Agreement by Subscriber. CSI
will provide Subscriber with prompt written notice of any such claim, demand, action or proceeding to which
the foregoing indemnity relates, and CSI will have the right to participate in the defense thereof at CSI's
expense.
Miscellaneous.
Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement
invalid or unenforceable, that provision of the Agreement will be amended to achieve as nearly as
possible the intent of the parties, and the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force and
effect.

domestic laws of the state of Tennessee, excluding any choice of law rules. Unless the parties agree in
writing to mediate or arbitrate a dispute, all disputes arising out of this Agreement will be subject to
the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts with applicable jurisdiction located
in Nashville, Tennessee, and each Party hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction thereof. EACH PARTY
HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE, SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, WHETHER
IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.
No Waiver. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be charged. The failure of CSI to enforce at any
time the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way constitute a present or future waiver of such
provisions, nor shall it in any way affect the right of CSI to enforce each and every such provision
thereafter.
No Assignment. Subscriber may not sell, assign, sublicense, encumber or otherwise transfer this
Agreement, the license granted hereunder, or any rights in and to any of the foregoing, directly or
indirectly. Any attempt by Subscriber to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement in
violation of this Section shall be void and of no effect. CSI may assign its interests under this
Agreement without notice to Subscriber. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
CSI and Subscriber and their successors and permitted
Limitation of Claims. Any claim or cause of action arising out of Your use of the Index or this
Agreement must be filed within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or it shall forever be
barred, notwithstanding any statute of limitations or other law to the contrary. Within this period, any
failure by CSI to enforce or exercise any provision of this Agreement or related right shall not
constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
Export Controls. The Index provided in connection with this Agreement is for use in the United
States only, unless Subscriber and CSI have expressly agreed otherwise. Subscriber will not export,
access, or send the Index or any software provided therein or any portion or aspect thereof to any other
