  Limitation of Liability. Neither SHERAJ nor its contributors shall be liable to you or any other person or entity by reason of any representation (unless fraudulent) or any implied warranty, condition or other term, or any duty at common law, or under the express terms of this Agreement for any loss of profit or any indirect, special or consequential loss, damage, costs, expenses or other claims (whether caused by the negligence of SHERAJ , its servants or agents or otherwise) which arises out of or in connection with this Agreement, even if SHERAJ has been advised of the possibility of such damages, costs or losses. SHERAJ's maximum liability arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Content (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) shall, to the extent permitted by  law, be limited to five (5) times the value paid by you for the relevant Content.

  The terms shall not preclude any liability or claim for death or bodily injury or any claim arising from wilful default or gross negligence on the part of SHERAJ or any of its employees, agents or otherwise.

12.  Payment

No reproduction of any Content is authorized until payment in full has been received by SHERAJ. Any Reproduction by you or on your behalf prior to payment being received by SHERAJ constitutes a breach of this Agreement which entitles SHERAJ to immediately terminate this Agreement and further constitute an infringement of copyright.
