In the event no non-temporary LPN Membership is applied for and granted prior to expiration of the Temporary Module Time Period, the temporary module shall expire, become invalid and cease functioning.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. User hereby agrees that the limitations of liability referenced herein are reasonable and necessary and acknowledges that without these limitations of warranty and liability User’s fees and charges for the License, Application(s), Services and Information would be substantially higher or the License, Application(s), Services and Information would not be available at all.
