lost profits) regardless of the form of action whether in contract, tort (including
negligence), or otherwise, even if we have been advised of the possibility of
such damages. In no event shall our maximum liability exceed five hundred ($500.00)
dollars.

and hold us harmless pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Dispute
Policy. When we are threatened with suit by a third party, we may seek written

may result in deactivation of your domain name.

any operating rule or policy or the Dispute Policy provided by us, may be considered
by us to be a material breach and that we may provide a written notice, describing
the breach, to you. If within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such notice,
you fail to provide evidence, which is reasonably satisfactory to us, that you
have not breached your obligations under the Agreement, then we may delete the
registration or reservation of your domain name or terminate your e-mail account
without further notice. Any such breach by you shall not be deemed to be excused
simply because we did not act earlier in response to that, or any other breach
by you.

domain name, such registration or reservation does not confer immunity from objection
to either the registration, reservation, or use of the domain name.
