provided, however, that this clause shall not prevent claims for direct financial loss suffered by the Customer due to the Supplier's intentional or grossly negligent breach of this Agreement, and that the total liability of the Supplier, whether in contract, tort or otherwise shall in no circumstances exceed a sum equal to the amount that the Customer has paid to the Supplier during the twelve months immediately preceding that month in which the breach occurred.
