Software must comply with the warranties contained in clause 16.1
and the
Reseller shall have the same rights in respect thereof as it would have had
under those clauses had the references to the date of this Licence been
references to the date on which such modification or replacement was made.
Notwithstanding the above, [*] may not terminate this License in accordance
with
