You agree to notify Tamara Ray Photography in the event that you desire to expand the usage for the Image(s) and pay any additional License Fee.

  12. Condition of Image(s) You should make sure that you examine the Image(s) for possible defects (whether digital or otherwise) before sending the Image(s) for Reproduction. Subject to clause 5.1, Tamara Ray Photography shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by you or any third party arising from any alleged or actual defect in any Image(s) or its caption or in any way from its Reproduction.

  13. Miscellaneous terms

    1. The License will terminate immediately if you (a) enter into voluntary or compulsory liquidation, (b) have a receiver appointed, or (c) fail to perform any of your obligations under the Agreement within 28 days of our giving you notice to comply. In the event of termination, all rights granted will immediately revert to us and any further exploitation of any Image(s) may in some instances constitute an infringement of copyright and/or other Intellectual Property rights.

    2. The License is conditional on you not being aware of or having received, prior to licensing any Image(s), any correspondence, representations, complaints, or Claims from Tamara Ray Photography or third parties (collectively ‘Claims’) alleging that the Image(s) in question is in breach of copyright or other third party Intellectual Property rights or is in some other way unauthorized. Any such Claims existing at the time the Image(s) is purported to be Licensed will render any License granted void from the beginning. Any use of in-copyright Image(s) in a manner not expressly authorized by this Agreement may constitute copyright infringement, entitling Tamara Ray Photography to exercise all rights and remedies available to it under copyright laws around the world. You shall be responsible for any damages resulting from any such copyright infringement, including any Claims by a third party. In addition, and without prejudice to Tamara Ray Photography’s other remedies under this Agreement, Tamara Ray Photography reserves the right to charge, and you agree to pay a fee equal to up to five (5) times Tamara Ray Photography’s standard License fee for the unauthorized use of the Image(s).

    3. Should any clause of this Agreement be found unenforceable, that will not affect any other clause and each will remain in full force and effect.

    4. You recognize that the Image(s) possess a special, unique, and extraordinary character which makes difficult the assessment of monetary damages which Tamara Ray Photography might sustain by unauthorized use. You agree that irreparable injury would be caused to Tamara Ray Photography by such unauthorized use and that injunctive relief may be appropriate in the event of a

      breach of this Agreement.
    5. If after notice to you, you fail to take any action which you are obliged to take hereunder, Tamara Ray Photography shall have the right and option, but not the duty, to bring an action for specific performance to compel such action, and obtain all reasonable costs, expenses, attorney’s fees and disbursements with respect thereto if such specific performance is awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction.
    6. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors, and assigns.
    7. This Agreement supersedes all prior understandings both oral and written between the Parties and constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties.
