If none of the foregoing remedies are commercially feasible, then Phoenix will return to Licensee any license fees paid for the Deliverable in question, and at such event, any licenses granted by Phoenix to Licensee for such Deliverable shall terminate. | |
9.5 | Phoenix’s obligations as stated in this Section 9 will not apply to any claim, suit or proceeding to the extent it is based on: (a) any modification of the Deliverables other than by Phoenix or the combination of the Deliverables with non-Phoenix hardware or software, if the claim, suit or proceeding would have been avoided if the Deliverables had not been so modified or combined, provided, however, if the underlying claim, suit or proceeding is directly attributable to the Deliverables component of a combination, the provisions of Section 9.2 shall apply as against Phoenix; or (b) any use of the Deliverables not authorized by this Agreement. | |
