This warranty shall not apply to the Software if modified by anyone or if used improperly or on an operating environment not approved by Licensor. 

B. In the event of any defect in the media upon which the Software is provided arising within [period media is warranted] of the date of delivery of the Software, upon return to Developer of the Software upon the original media, Developer shall provide Licensee a new copy of the Software. 

6. Software Maintenance.
 A. Standard maintenance. During the Warranty Period, Developer shall provide to Licensee any new, corrected or enhanced version of the Software as created by Developer. Such enhancement shall include all modifications to the software which increase the speed, efficiency or ease of use of the Software, or add additional capabilities or functionality to the Software, but shall not include any substantially new or rewritten version of the Software. 

B. Optional maintenance. After expiration of the Warranty Period, Licensee may continue to receive maintenance support for successive twelve (12) month periods.

7. Payment.

Payment of any other amount owed by Licensee to Developer pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid within thirty (30) days following invoice from Developer. In the event any overdue amount owed by Licensee is not paid following ten (10) days written notice from Developer, then in addition to any other amount due, Developer may impose and Licensee shall pay a late payment charge at the rate of one percent (1%) per month on any overdue amount.
