This indemnification obligation shall survive termination of the Agreement.
11. Disclaimer. The Services and Work Product are provided "as is" without any warranties of any kind. Client accepts full responsibility for the usefulness of the Services and Work Product as incorporated into the Website, or as used by Client. Client expressly acknowledges that Builtwell makes no representations or warranties except those provided in this Agreement. Builtwell hereby disclaims all other representations and warranties, express or implied, including, without limitation, with respect to the merchantability, quality, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy or completeness of the Services and Work Product. To the maximum extent permitted by law, under no circumstances shall Builtwell be liable to Client, or to others making use of the Services and/or Work Product, for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages, including lost profits or lost data, arising under this Agreement, even if Builtwell has been advised of the possibility thereof and even if due to Builtwell's error, omission or negligence.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall Builtwell's aggregate liability hereunder from any and all causes whatsoever (including, without limitation, negligence, strict liability, warranty, indemnity or otherwise) exceed the fees paid by Client for the preceding twelve (12) months to Builtwell hereunder. This limitation shall survive failure of essential purpose of any remedies that may be provided under this Agreement. The parties agree that the foregoing limitations represent a reasonable allocation of risk under this Agreement and that Builtwell would not be able to provide the Services and/or Work Product to Client at the prices set forth in the Proposal without such limitation. No claim may be brought by Client under this Agreement more than one (1) year after the accrual of such claim. The terms of this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

16. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be valid and enforceable. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that any provision is invalid and unenforceable as written, that provision will be deemed modified in a manner consistent with the intent of the original provision, so as to make it valid and enforceable. This Agreement, and the application of the provision to persons or circumstances other than those with respect to which it would be invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected.

18. Waiver. The failure of either party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of any term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.
