1. EV Guideline 8.4 is deleted.

2. EV Guideline Section 18 is amended to read as follows:

18. Liability and Indemnification CAs MAY limit their liability
as described in Section 18 of the Baseline Requirements except
that a CA MAY NOT limit its liability to Subscribers or Relying
Parties for legally recognized and provable claims to a monetary
amount less than ten thousand US dollars per Subscriber or
Relying Party per EV Certificate.

A CA's indemnification obligations and a Root CA's obligations
with respect to subordinate CAs are set forth in the Baseline
Requirements.

3. Baseline Requirements Section 18.1 is amended to read as
follows:

18.1 Liability to Subscribers and Relying Parties

If the CA has issued and managed the Certificate in compliance
with these Requirements and its Certificate Policy and/or
Certification Practice Statement, the CA MAY disclaim liability
to the Certificate Beneficiaries or any other third parties for
any losses suffered as a result of use or reliance on such
Certificate beyond those specified in the CA's Certificate
Policy and/or Certification Practice Statement. If the CA has
not issued or managed the Certificate in compliance with these
Requirements and its Certificate Policy and/or Certification
Practice Statement, the CA MAY seek to limit its liability to
the Subscriber and to Relying Parties, regardless of the cause
of action or legal theory involved, for any and all claims,
losses or damages suffered as a result of the use or reliance on
such Certificate by any appropriate means that the CA
desires. If the CA chooses to limit its liability for
Certificates that are not issued or managed in compliance with
these Requirements or its Certificate Policy and/or
Certification Practice Statement, then the CA SHALL include the
limitations on liability in the CA's Certificate Policy
and/or Certification Practice Statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a CA MAY NOT limit its liability to Subscribers or
Relying Parties for legally recognized and provable claims to a
monetary amount less than two thousand US dollars per Subscriber
or Relying Party per DV Certificate or less than five thousand
US dollars per Subscriber or Relying Party per OV Certificate.
