  3. Immediately on the termination of the Licence, the Licensee will cease to use the Licensed Programs and will return to the University the Licensed Programs, the Documentation, all copies of the Licensed Programs and of the Documentation (or, if requested by the University, the Licensee will delete the Licensed Programs and the Documentation from the Equipment and the magnetic media on which they are stored and will certify in writing to the University that they have been deleted).
  4. Any termination of the Licence (however it happens) will not affect any accrued rights or liabilities of either party, nor will it affect the coming into force, or the continuing in force of any provision of this Agreement which is expressly, or by implication, intended to come into or to continue in force on or after termination.
