Fatal PHP error when pressing Save for any of the EXMAGE > Settings

Hi, I just purchased & installed EXMAGE. In the plugin’s settings, I immediately ran into the following errors. But I also diagnosed the cause of the error, so please see the DEBUG information below.

ATTEMPT #1

1.1) I was simply trying to enter my Auto Update Key.
1.2) Then, when I pressed “Save & Check Key,” the page reloaded, but the key that I had entered was erased (back to a blank field). Nothing else happened.
1.3) Then I repasted the key, and instead pressed: “Save”. This resulted in a fatal error page from WordPress: “There has been a critical error on this website.”

ATTEMPT #2

2.1) In the Settings > General tab, I flipped ON the switch to “Enable Replace media after deactivated”. Then, from the Placeholder Image field, I chose a different image from my Media Library.
2.2) When I pressed the button to “Save”, this resulted in a fatal error page from WordPress: “There has been a critical error on this website.”

DEBUG INFORMATION:
In my debug.log, both of these instances created the same error:

`

ANALYSIS:
Line 813 is trying to use the Woocommerce function wc_get_logger(). But my site does not have Woocommerce installed. (You never state anywhere that Woocommerce is a prerequisite for using the EXMAGE plugin.) This line of code should be wrapped in a conditional statement, IF THIS FUNCTION EXISTS (….) { …}

WORKAROUND:
When I manually comment-out line 813, then the error disappears, and at least I can complete the Save changes to my settings.
