9
9.2 | The Sale Tokens are not intended to be offered in any jurisdiction or under circumstances where not permitted under applicable law. Although the Sale Tokens are not intended to be securities, there is substantial uncertainty as to the application of securities laws to digital assets in the United States and other jurisdictions. Neither this Agreement nor the Sale Tokens have been registered with the SEC or any other governmental authority. Accordingly, if deemed securities, the Sale Tokens may not be offered or sold in the U.S. except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, in any case, in accordance with all applicable laws. |

(b) | in no event will the aggregate liability of the Seller for direct loss, whether in contract, tort (including negligence, whether active, passive, or imputed), or other legal or equitable basis, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the use of or inability to use Tokens, exceed the Consideration. |
10.2 | The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Clause 10 reflects a reasonable allocation of risk and that the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement without these liability limitations. |
10.3 | The limitations set forth in this Clause 10 will not limit or exclude liability for the fraud, intentional, or wilful misconduct of a Party. |
10.4 | To the fullest extent permitted by law (except in cases of fraud, intentional, or wilful misconduct), no Party shall be liable in any way or in any event in respect of any claim under this Agreement if such claim was not made in the period commencing from the date of Completion to the date falling twelve (12) months after Completion (such period being the Claim Period), other than in respect of a breach of confidentiality under Clause 14 whereby such Claim Period does not apply. Any claim which has been made before the expiry of the Claim Period shall, if it has not been previously satisfied in full, settled, or withdrawn, be deemed to have been withdrawn and shall become fully barred and unenforceable on the expiry of the period of twelve (12) months commencing from the date on which such claim was made, unless proceedings in respect thereof shall have been commenced against such other Party (and for this purpose proceedings shall not be deemed to have been commenced unless they shall have been issued and served upon the other Party). |
10
10.5 | For the avoidance of doubt, no Party shall be entitled to recover damages in respect of any claim (as the case may be) if, and to the extent that, such Party has already recovered damages in respect of the same fact or subject matter. |

10.7 | The Purchaser expressly waives any rights the Purchaser may have under any statute or common law principles that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims of which the Purchaser has actual knowledge at the time of agreeing to this release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this release shall not apply to or in any way limit any Purchaser’s ability to bring a claim against the Seller or its affiliates for: |
(a) | breach of contract by the Seller or its affiliates of any agreement between a Purchaser and the Seller (or its affiliates), including, without limitation, this Agreement; or |
(b) | the Seller’s breach of its warranties pursuant to this Agreement. |
