TERM
This Agreement shall be for the term specified by Customer on the Service Order Form, Domain Name Registration Form or IntelliSecurity Services Order Form, as applicable (the "Initial Term"). Except in the case of Dial-up customers, this Agreement will be automatically renewed, at the end of the Initial Term, on a month to month basis unless either party provides sixty (60) days written notice to the other of termination of this Agreement prior to the end of the then current term. The Initial Term and all month to month extensions thereof are collectively referred to herein as the "Term" of this Agreement. Dial-up Customers' contracts are on a month-to-month basis. Customers may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Initial Term or any extension thereof in accordance with the Cancellation section herein.

BILLING AND PAYMENT Fees:
During the term of this Agreement, Customer shall pay the fees for the Services that are set forth on the Service Order Form, the Domain Name Registration Form and the IntelliSecurity Services Order Form, as applicable. In addition to such fees, ABC may charge taxes, fees or assessments by governmental agencies and ABC shall have the right, at any time, to pass through and invoice to Customer any new or increased taxes, fees, assessments or other charges imposed on or required to be collected by ABC by any governmental agency. Customer shall also be responsible for paying all taxes, fees or assessments and other charges imposed on Customer by any governmental agency that may result from this Agreement, or any of the activities contemplated hereunder. Terms Of Payment: Invoices are due and payable upon receipt. If Customer, in good faith, disputes all or any portion of an invoice, Customer must, within sixty (60) days of the date of the invoice, (i) pay all undisputed amounts and (ii) provide ABC with written notice of the details of the billing dispute, together with all supporting documentation. The parties agree to work diligently and in good faith to resolve all billing disputes. Disputed amounts found to be properly owed to ABC shall be paid promptly following resolution of the dispute, together with the late-payment interest fee set forth below on such amount accrued from the 30th day following the date of the original invoice. All payments shall be made in U.S. currency. Service Continuation After Initial Term: The fees set forth in the Service Order Form, the IntelliSecurity Services Order Form or Domain Name Registration Form are guaranteed during the Initial Term of this Agreement. If Customer continues to receive the Services after the Initial Term without entering into a new agreement or agreement extension, the fees charged after the Initial Term shall be at the then standard ABC rates for such services, without discount, determined month to month. Service Charge: Customer will pay a late payment charge equal to 1.5% (or the highest amount permitted by law, whichever Is lower) per month or portion thereof on the outstanding balance of any invoice remaining unpaid thirty (30) days after the date upon which payment is due. Suspension Or Interruption Of Service For Non-Payment: In the event Customer's account becomes past due for more than thirty (30) days, or if ABC has a reasonably held belief that Customer may be unable to pay its debts as they become due (i.e., is financially insecure), ABC may, in its sole discretion, suspend, interrupt or disconnect the Services upon ten (10) days written notice to Customer. In the event of such suspension, interruption or disconnection, Customer may be required to post a deposit or such other security, as ABC reasonably deems necessary in order to resume receiving the Services.  In addition, if ABC reasonably determines that Customer may be financially insecure, ABC may require such other action of Customer as ABC reasonably determines is necessary under the circumstances, including letters of credit, security deposit(s), restrictions on available credit or other action as ABC may require from time to time regardless of Customer's then-current payment status on its account or its payment history on such account. Failure to satisfy ABC's request for such action within timelines reasonably set by ABC may result in immediate termination of service without further notice. Customer may not withhold or set off any payment for any reason without ABC's prior written consent. ABC shall have no liability for any loss or damage resulting from its suspension or termination of Services under this Agreement.

ACCEPTABLE USES
Customer shall at all times adhere to the ABC Acceptable Use Policy, as amended from time to time by ABC effective upon posting of the revised policy on the ABC website, currently located at http://www.oregonhost.com. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, ABC may immediately take corrective action, including disconnection or discontinuance of any and all Services, or terminate this Agreement in the event of notice of possible violation by Customer of the ABC Acceptable Use Policy. In the event ABC takes corrective action due to a violation of the ABC Acceptable Use Policy, ABC shall not refund to Customer any fees paid in advance of such corrective action.

CANCELLATION POLICY
Except for Dial-up, Shared Hosting, Virtual Private Server, and Dedicated Server customers (other than Dedicated Server customers also obtaining IntelliSecurity Services or whose Service Order Form reflects a term of one year or longer), Customer may terminate this Agreement by giving ABC at least sixty (60) days prior written notice. However, Customer remains obligated to pay all amounts remaining in the Initial Term and any extension thereof, and if ABC has purchased equipment on behalf of Customer, at Customer's request or pursuant to Customer's order, including but not limited to circuit and router, Customer shall assume responsibility for payments for such equipment, until paid in full. Dial-up, Shared Hosting, Virtual Private Server, and Dedicated Server customers (other than Dedicated Server customers also obtaining IntelliSecurity Services or whose Service Order Form reflects a term of one year or longer, which customers have the termination rights and obligations set forth in the preceding sentence) may terminate this Agreement as it relates to those services by giving ABC at least thirty (30) days prior written notice, and are not obligated to pay equipment costs, and except for SiteMerlin Shared Hosting customers, are not obligated to pay amounts remaining in the Initial Term. In order to terminate early, Customer's primary contact person on the account should notify ABC of such request to do so. In the case of credit card orders, all termination requests should be signed by Customer's primary contact person on the account who must provide the last four digits of the credit card on file with ABC. However, ABC shall not be liable for unauthorized termination of an account.

In the event that a Dial-up Customer primary account holder cancels service, service will be cancelled immediately, and the remainder of the monthly payment forfeited. ABC reserves the right to terminate this Agreement without cause prior to the end of the term upon sixty (60) days written notice to Customer, in which event ABC will refund any fees for Services which Customer has paid in advance. Any termination of this agreement by ABC or Customer shall not deprive either party of its rights or relieve either party of its obligations, in each case, as accrued prior to the date of termination, including, without limitation, Customer's obligation to pay for Services rendered prior to the date of termination.

Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Customer shall have no right, title, claims or interest in or to the ABC Intellectual Property. Customer may not copy, modify or translate the ABC Intellectual Property or related documentation, or decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the ABC Intellectual Property, to use it other than in connection with the Services, or grant any other person or entity the right to do so. Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Customer is not authorized to distribute or to authorize others to distribute the ABC Intellectual Property in any manner without the prior written consent of ABC; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence would preclude Customer from using the ABC Intellectual Property as incorporated in the Services. This paragraph shall not operate to extinguish, restrict, vary, waive or affect in any manner whatsoever any right, title or interest which Customer may now have or hereafter acquires in, or in relation to, the third-party software that is part of or provided with the Services solely to the extent such third-party licensors publicly provide such rights, title or interest in the third-party software to Customer.

SELECTED SERVICES

DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION

A.   Registrar Services.
ABC has entered into an agreement with an accredited domain name registrar, OregonHost Ltd. ("OregonHost") to provide Customer with domain name registration services; for any requests by Customer to ABC to register, or renew an Internet domain name or transfer a domain name from another registrar to the ABC registrar. As consideration for the domain name registration services provided by OregonHost to Customer, on behalf of ABC, Customer agrees to pay ABC, prior to the effectiveness of the desired domain name registration or renewal, the then-current amounts set forth in the ABC price schedule for the initial registration of the domain name and, should Customer choose to renew the registration, subsequent renewals of the registration. To view the current rates for using ABC's domain name services, please see ABC's PRICE SCHEDULE BY PRODUCT (http://www.oregonhost.com/html/webhosting.html). All fees are non-refundable, in whole or in part, even if Customer's domain name registration is suspended, cancelled or transferred prior to the end of Customer's then current registration term. ABC reserves the right to change fees, surcharges, renewal fees or to institute new fees at any time, for any reason, at its sole discretion. Customer's requested domain name will not be registered or renewed unless and until ABC receives actual payment of the initial registration fee and/or renewal fee, and has confirmed Customer's registration in an email from ABC to the email address for the Administrative Contact indicated in Customer's registration application and/or on file. 

B.  Renewal.
Customer must ensure that all renewal fees are paid when due; provide accurate contact information to ABC; agree to existing terms & conditions; and follow all other procedures as ABC may indicate in the renewal notification that ABC will send to Customer's email address on record at the time the renewal notification is sent. Any failure to follow all required procedures shall be at Customer's sole risk. Should these renewal fees go unpaid within the time specified in a second notice or reminder regarding renewal, Customer's registration may be cancelled. Payment must be made by credit card or such other method as ABC may indicate in the registration application or renewal form. ABC will renew Customer's name for Customer provided Customer's credit card or other billing information is available and up to date, unless Customer instructs ABC otherwise within the time specified. If Customer's billing information is not accurate and Customer wishes to renew Customer's domain name registration, ABC will contact Customer to update this information and charge Customer accordingly. 

C. Cancellation; Reinstatement. 
In the event of a charge-back by a credit card company (or similar action by another payment provider allowed by ABC) in connection with the payments of the registration fees or renewal for Customer's domain name registration, Customer agrees and acknowledges that the domain name registration shall be transferred to ABC as the paying entity for that registration to the registry and that ABC reserves all rights regarding such domain name including, without limitation, the right to make the domain name available to other parties for purchase. ABC will reinstate Customer's domain name registration solely at ABC's discretion, and subject to ABC's receipt of the initial registration or renewal fee and ABC's then-current reinstatement fee.

D.   Transfer. 
Customer will be responsible for all costs and fees associated with the registration of Customer's domain name including, but not limited to, all costs and fees for moving or transferring such domain name. Under no circumstances shall ABC be responsible for this cost.

E.   Use of Personal Information; Updated Information. 
OregonHost and/or ABC will collect certain personal information (including, without limitation, contact information such as name, address, email address and telephone number) ("Personal Information") from Customer during the registration process. Customer agrees and acknowledges that OregonHost will share Personal Information that Customer provides (or that is gathered about Customer during the registration process, including, for example, Customer's primary domain name server and the like), or that OregonHost or ABC otherwise maintains, with one another, with ICANN, with registry administrator(s), and with other third parties as ICANN and applicable laws and/or policy may require or permit. Customer further agrees and acknowledges that OregonHost and/or ABC shall be permitted (and in some cases may be required) to make publicly available, or directly available to third party vendors, some, or all, of the Personal Information or domain name registration information Customer provides, for purposes of inspection (such as through ABC's WHOIS service) or for targeted marketing and other purposes as required or permitted by ICANN and applicable laws. Customer may access Customer's Personal Information and/or domain name registration information in OregonHost's or ABC's possession to review, modify or update such information, through Customer's Control Panel/Domain Manager. ABC will not process data about any identified or identifiable natural person that ABC obtains from Customer in a way incompatible with the purposes and other limitations which ABC describes in this Agreement. OregonHost will take reasonable precautions to protect the information it obtains from Customer from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration or destruction. Customer hereby irrevocably waives any and all claims and causes of action Customer may have arising from such disclosure or use of Customer's Personal Information and/or domain name registration information by OregonHost or ABC.

F.   ICANN Guidelines. 
Additionally, Customer acknowledges that ICANN may establish guidelines, limits and/or requirements that relate to the amount and type of information that OregonHost or ABC may or must make available to the public or to private entities, and the manner in which such information is made available. Customer hereby consents to any and all such disclosures and use of, and guidelines, limits and restrictions on disclosure or use of, information provided by Customer in connection with the registration of a domain name (including any updates to such information), whether during or after the term of Customer's registration of the domain name. 

G.   Third Party Data.
In the event that, in registering the domain name, Customer is providing information about a third party, Customer hereby represents that Customer has (1) provided notice to that third party of the disclosure and use of the party's information as set forth in this Agreement, and (2) that Customer has obtained that third party's express consent to the disclosure and use of that party's information as set forth in this Agreement. 

H.   Accuracy of Data. 
Customer acknowledges that willfully providing inaccurate information or willfully failing to update information promptly will constitute a material breach of this Agreement and will be sufficient basis for cancellation of Customer's domain name registration. (In addition, under certain federal laws, such provision of inaccurate or false information is one factor in determining whether Customer may have violated the trademark rights of another party in registering a domain name confusingly similar to such party's trademark.) Customer is responsible for notifying ABC in writing of changes in its contact information. In addition, Customer agrees that Customer's failure to respond for over fifteen (15) calendar days to inquiries by OregonHost and/or ABC concerning the accuracy of contact details associated with Customer's registration shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and will be sufficient basis for cancellation of Customer's domain name registration.

I.   If Customer Has Registered a Domain Name Through ABC Before January 10, 2000. 
If Customer has registered a .com, .net, or .org domain name through ABC prior to January 10, 2000, and Customer asked ABC to register the domain name for Customer, such domain names are subject to the agreement Customer entered into with Network Solutions, Inc. ("NSI"), who was then ABC's exclusive provider of domain name registration services. By applying for the domain name and through the use or continued use of the domain name, the applicant agrees to be bound by the terms of NSI's domain name policy (the "NSI Policy") which is available at: http://www.networksolutions.com/legal/service-agreement.html.

J. Domain Name Transfers. 
If Customer has requested that the domain name registrar of record for Customer's domain name(s) (as identified by Customer during the registration process) be changed to ABC/OregonHost, the following terms shall apply: In making the transfer request, Customer represents and warrants that: ·Customer is the rightful holder of the registration for the domain name(s) that Customer seeks to transfer. ·Customer is not in default with respect to any obligations that Customer owes to the current registrar of record. ·Customer is not the subject of any pending bankruptcy proceeding, nor is Customer a party to any dispute concerning the use or registration of the domain name(s). ·The domain name(s) are not currently the subject of any dispute or collection effort, including any attachment, levy, lien, garnishment, escrow or other proceedings. ·Customer is authorized to request the transfer and to enter into this Agreement. · More than 60 days have passed since the domain name(s) was registered, transferred to a new registrar, or renewed. CUSTOMER MAY NOT TRANSFER A DOMAIN NAME TO A NEW REGISTRAR WITHIN 60 DAYS OF INITIAL REGISTRATION, OR ANY SUBSEQUENT TRANSFER OR RENEWAL. Customer agrees that neither ABC nor OregonHost will have any responsibility for any obligations that Customer may owe to the current registrar of record for the domain name(s) Customer seeks to transfer, and that Customer will be responsible, pursuant to the indemnification provision herein, for any costs that ABC or OregonHost may incur in resolving any claims brought by any third party (including the current registrar of record) relating to this transfer. Customer will not be entitled to a refund or credit for any amounts that Customer may have paid to the current registrar of record. Upon the completion of the transfer process, however, the term of Customer's registration will be extended by the period for which Customer has paid ABC. Customer agrees that ABC may charge Customer an additional maintenance fee in order to maintain Customer's domain name for any term carried over from the current registrar of record. Upon receipt of a request to transfer a domain name from another registrar (losing registrar) to ABC and OregonHost, ABC requires validation of the request from the Administrative Contact on record at the time of the transfer request. Customer authorizes ABC and OregonHost to take all actions reasonably necessary to transfer the domain name(s), including contacting and updating Customer's registration information with the current registrar of record and the registry. Except as noted above, OregonHost and ABC will treat Customer's transfer request as an initial domain name registration and will provide all subsequent domain name services in accordance with the terms and conditions herein. The term "register" or "registration," as used in this Agreement, shall be read to include the transfer of a domain name registration from Customer's current registrar of record to OregonHost.

K. Third-Party Proprietary Rights:
Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring, and hereby represents and warrants to ABC, that Customer's domain name does not infringe upon any trademark, trade names, service mark or other proprietary rights owned by a third party. Customer agrees to be bound by the terms of the dispute policy adopted by the domain name registry, and related agreements that Customer will be asked to review and indicate Customer's acceptance of during the domain name registration process. In the case of gTLDS (global Top Level Domains, including but not limited to .com, .net,.org, .biz, and .info), the dispute policy is the ICANN Domain Name Dispute Policy, which is posted at http://www.icann.org/udrp. 

L. Welcome Page.
Customer consents to ABC's activation ("parking") of the registered domain name on a "Welcome Page" containing a notice, "Welcome to the Future Website of domain name." Such "Welcome Page" indicates that ABC registered the domain name, and links to ABC Websites.  This "Welcome Page" may be replaced by the Customer when the Customer contracts for Web hosting and posts Customer's own content.

M. Domain name search process.
ABC endeavors to make the domain name availability search process reliable; however, ABC does not guarantee availability of domain names or the accuracy or security of the WHOIS system. The registration process is not complete until the domain name requested by Customer has been registered in Customer's name with the appropriate registry. Because there are delays in the actual registration of a domain name with the appropriate registry, ABC is not responsible if domain names requested by Customer are actually registered to third parties.

N. If Customer has registered a .CO.UK domain name,
Customer must also agree to NOMINET UK's terms and conditions, currently posted at http://www.nominet.org.uk/nominet-terms.html .
