(a) All Data furnished pursuant to this Agreement is obtained by Distributor from sources believed by it to be accurate and reliable. Because of the possibility of human and mechanical error as well as other factors, however, all Data is provided “AS IS” without warranty of any kind, and DISTRIBUTOR (AND DISTRIBUTOR’S LICENSORS), IN PARTICULAR, MAKE NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, TO SUBSCRIBER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY AS TO THE ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, COMPLETENESS, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH DATA.
