2.4. Suspension. In addition to the rights set forth in Section 3.1, Interos may suspend Authorized Users’ access to or use of all or any part of the Application Services, without incurring any resulting obligation or liability, if Interos believes in good faith that: (i) Subscriber or any Authorized User has failed to comply with any term of this Agreement or has accessed or used the Application Services for a purpose not authorized under this Agreement; or (ii) Subscriber or any Authorized User is, has been, or is likely to be involved in any fraudulent, misleading, or unlawful activities in connection with its access to and use of the Application Services.
3. FEES AND PAYMENT.
3.1. Payment. Subscriber shall pay all fees on or prior to the due date set forth in the applicable Order Form. Subscriber shall make all payments hereunder as specified in the Order Form. If Subscriber fails to make any payment when due, then, in addition to all other remedies that may be available: (i) Interos may charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month calculated daily and compounded monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable law; and (ii) if such failure continues for ten (10) days following written notice thereof, Interos may suspend performance of the Services and access to the Application Services until all past due amounts and interest thereon have been paid, without incurring any obligation or liability to Subscriber or any other person or entity by reason of such suspension.

Except for Taxes assessable against Interos based on Interos’s income, Subscriber is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Subscriber’s purchases hereunder. If Interos has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Subscriber is responsible under this paragraph, the appropriate amount shall be invoiced to and paid by Subscriber in accordance with Section 3.1, unless Subscriber provides Interos with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.
4. CONFIDENTIALITY.

This section sets forths the entire liability and obligation of Interos, and Subscriber’s sole remedy for any actual, threatened, or alleges claims of this nature.
8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
8.1. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY: (I) LOSS OF PRODUCTION, USE, BUSINESS, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE; (II) IMPAIRMENT OF, INABILITY TO USE, OR LOSS, INTERRUPTION, OR DELAY OF, THE SERVICES OR MATERIALS; (III) COST OF REPLACEMENT GOODS OR SERVICES; (IV) LOSS OF GOODWILL OR REPUTATION; OR (V) CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, ENHANCED, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER A PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES OR SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES WERE OTHERWISE FORESEEABLE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Except as otherwise specified in an Order Form, all Subscriptions shall automatically renew for successive twelve (12) month periods for the same quantity as of the end of the prior Subscription Term (each a “Renewal Term” and, together with the “Initial Subscription Term,” the “Subscription Term”), unless either Party gives the other written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current Subscription Term.
