Customer's sole and exclusive remedy,
and WebDogg's sole obligation, for
breach of the foregoing warranties
shall be for WebDogg, at its option,
to re-perform the defective Services
at no cost to Customer, or, in the
event of interruptions to the Services
caused by a breach of the foregoing
warranties, issue Customer a credit

to time re-provision the Services
from different data centers.
b. The foregoing warranties shall
not apply to performance issues or
defects in the Services (a) caused
by factors outside of WebDogg's reasonable
control; (b) that resulted from any

effective unless approved in writing
by any authorized representative of
Customer and WebDogg. This Agreement
may not be modified or amended except
by another agreement in writing executed
by the parties hereto; provided, however,
that these Terms of Service may be
modified from time to time by WebDogg
in its sole discretion, which modifications
will be effective upon posting to
WebDogg's web site.
e. Severability. All rights and restrictions
contained in this Agreement may be
exercised and shall be applicable
and binding only to the extent that
they do not violate any applicable
laws and are intended to be limited
to the extent necessary so that they
will not render this Agreement illegal,
invalid or unenforceable. If any provision
or portion of any provision of this
Agreement shall be held to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable by a court
of competent jurisdiction, it is the
intention of the parties that the
remaining provisions or portions thereof
shall constitute their agreement with
respect to the subject matter hereof,
and all such remaining provisions
or portions thereof shall remain in
full force and effect.
f. Notices. All notices and demands
required or contemplated hereunder
by one party to the other shall be
in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly made and given upon
date of delivery if delivered in person
or by an overnight delivery or postal
service, upon receipt if delivered
by facsimile the receipt of which
is confirmed by the recipient, or
upon the expiration of five days after
the date of posting if mailed by certified
mail, postage prepaid, to the addresses
or facsimile numbers set forth below
the parties' signatures. Either party
may change its address or facsimile
number for purposes of this Agreement
by notice in writing to the other
party as provided herein. WebDogg
may give written notice to Customer
via e-mail to the Customer's e-mail
address as maintained in WebDogg's
billing records.
g. Waiver. No failure or delay by
any party hereto to exercise any right
or remedy hereunder shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any
right or remedy by any party preclude
any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right
or remedy. No express waiver or assent
by any party hereto to any breach
of or default in any term or condition
of this Agreement shall constitute
a waiver of or an assent to any succeeding
breach of or default in the same or
any other term or condition hereof.
h. Assignment; Successors. Customer
may not assign or transfer this Agreement,
or any of its rights or obligations
hereunder, without the prior written
consent of WebDogg. Any attempted
assignment in violation of the foregoing
provision shall be null and void and
of no force or effect whatsoever.
WebDogg may assign its rights and
obligations under this Agreement,
and may engage subcontractors or agents
in performing its duties and exercising
its rights hereunder, without the
consent of Customer. This Agreement
shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.
i. Limitation of Actions. No action,
regardless of form, arising by reason
of or in connection with this Agreement
may be brought by either party more
than two years after the cause of
action has arisen.
j. Counterparts. If this Agreement
is signed manually, it may be executed
in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original
and all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument. If this
Agreement is signed electronically,
WebDogg's records of such execution
shall be presumed accurate unless
proven otherwise.
k. Force Majeure. Neither party is
liable for any default or delay in
the performance of any of its obligations
under this Agreement (other than failure
to make payments when due) if such
default or delay is caused, directly
or indirectly, by forces beyond such
party's reasonable control, including,
without limitation, fire, flood, acts
of God, labor disputes, accidents,
acts of war or terrorism, interruptions
of transportation or communications,
supply shortages or the failure of
any third party to perform any commitment
relative to the production or delivery
of any equipment or material required
for such party to perform its obligations
hereunder.
l. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except
as otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement
is intended, nor shall anything herein
be construed to confer any rights,
legal or equitable, in any Person
other than the parties hereto and
their respective successors and permitted
assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Customer acknowledges and agrees that
Microsoft, and any supplier of third-party
supplier that is identified as a third-party
beneficiary in the Service Description,
is an intended third-party beneficiary
of the provisions set forth in this
Agreement as they relate specifically
to its products or services and shall
have the right to enforce directly
the terms and conditions of this Agreement
with respect to its products or services
against Customer as if it were a party
to this Agreement.
m. Government Regulations. Customer
may not export, re-export, transfer
or make available, whether directly
or indirectly, any regulated item
or information to anyone outside the
United States in connection with this
Agreement without first complying
with all export control laws and regulations
which may be imposed by the United
States government and any country
or organization of nations within
whose jurisdiction Customer operates
or does business.
n. Marketing. Customer agrees that
during the term of this Agreement
WebDogg may publicly refer to Customer,
orally and in writing, as a customer
of WebDogg. Any other public reference
to Customer by WebDogg requires the
written consent of Customer
