    2.3 Exclusions. Drifty shall have no support obligations with respect to any hardware or software product other than the Drifty Software ("Nonqualified Products"). If Drifty provides Technical Support for a problem caused by a Nonqualified Product, or if Drifty’s service efforts are increased as a result of a Nonqualified Product, and upon notification to Client, Drifty may charge time and materials for such extra services at its then current rates. If, in Drifty’s reasonable opinion, performance of Technical Support is or will be made more difficult or impaired because of Nonqualified Products, Drifty shall so notify Client, and Client shall immediately remove the Nonqualified Product at its own risk and expense. Client shall remain solely responsible for the compatibility and functioning of nonqualified products with the Drifty Software.
