browsing platform. ArmoredCART reserves the right at any time to revise and
modify the Software, release subsequent versions thereof and to alter features,
specifications, capabilities, functions, and other characteristics of the
Software, without notice to Merchant. If any revision or modification to the
Software materially changes Merchant's ability to conduct business, Merchant's
sole remedy is to terminate the AGREEMENT pursuant to Section 7.1 regarding
termination of service.

content available from ArmoredCART or the Service, including but not limited to

allow no other person or company to use its account, and to notify ArmoredCART
promptly if Merchant has any reason to believe that the security of its account

violation of the AGREEMENT, or any alleged violation of any rights of another,
including but not limited to Merchant's use of any content, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrighted or patented material, or other intellectual
property used in connection with Merchant's Store. ArmoredCART reserves the
right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any
matter otherwise subject to indemnification by Merchant, but doing so shall not
excuse Merchant's indemnity obligations.

LIABILITIES
THE SERVICE AND SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR

parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the
parties intentions as reflected in the provision, and agree that the other
provisions of the AGREEMENT remain in full force and effect. Merchant agrees

action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the AGREEMENT must be
filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or be
