You agree that you may not use the Software in such High Risk Use scenarios.

  2. ENTIRE AGREEMENT/SEVERABILITY This Agreement contains the entire, final, and exclusive understanding between MVTec and you, and may not be modified or amended except by written instrument, executed by authorized representatives of MVTec and you. If any provisions of this Agreement are held to be illegal, invalid, or enforceable for any reason, the remainder of the provisions of this license will remain in full force and effect and you and MVTec will agree on the replacement of the invalid contractual provision by an appropriate provision which comes as close as possible to what you and MVTec would have wanted, had they considered the point.
