agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that EntryExpress.NET assumes no
responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store

other EntryExpress.NET services, affiliate services, third-party content or
third-party software. Waiver and Severability of Terms. The failure of
EntryExpress.NET to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall
not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS
is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties
nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the
parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of
the TOS remain in full force and effect.

Limitations. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary,
any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or
