ADVERTISING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. INSERTION ORDERS.

These terms and conditions ("Standard Terms") shall govern any insertion order ("IO") submitted by the advertiser or its agency (collectively, "Advertiser"). Advertiser and its agency (if applicable) shall be jointly and severally responsible under the IO and Standard Terms (collectively, "Agreement"). Subject to these Standard Terms, JWSMedia agrees to make commercially reasonable efforts to display the Advertisements set forth in the IO on the dates specified in the IO.

2. TERMS OF PAYMENT.

If JWSMedia has not extended credit to Advertiser (in its sole discretion), Advertiser will pay JWSMedia before the Start Date set forth in the IO. If JWSMedia approves a credit request, JWSMedia will invoice Advertiser as set forth in the IO and Advertiser will pay JWSMedia within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Any late payment will accrue interest at the lesser of the U.S. Prime Rate of interest plus 3% per month or the maximum interest allowable under applicable law. If Advertiser fails to make payment, Advertiser will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by JWSMedia in collecting such amounts. All payments due hereunder are in U.S. dollars and are exclusive of any applicable taxes, for which Advertiser shall be responsible.

3. SUBMISSION OF ADVERTISING.

Advertiser will deliver all Advertisements to JWSMedia no later than 10 business days before the scheduled Start Date. Advertiser hereby grants to JWSMedia a non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid license to use, perform, reproduce, display, transmit and distribute the Advertisement and all contents therein, including Advertiser's trademarks and logos, in accordance herewith.

4. POSITIONING.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the IO, the timing and positioning of Advertisements within the JWSMedia web site or on any page of the JWSMedia web site is at the sole discretion of JWSMedia.

5. RIGHT TO REJECT ADVERTISEMENT.

JWSMedia reserves the right to reject, suspend, or cancel any Advertisement (a) for failure to comply with its then-current generally applicable policies concerning the technical specifications for any content of advertising, (b) if directed to do so by any law enforcement agency, court, or other governmental agency, or (c) if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Advertisement may subject JWSMedia to criminal or civil liability for any reason. JWSMedia's remedies under this Section shall be in addition to and not in exclusion of any other remedy set forth in this Agreement.

6. STATISTICS.

JWSMedia makes no representations regarding usage statistics, impressions, click-throughs or other statistical measurements (collectively, "Measurement Units") other than those expressly set forth in the IO. Advertiser acknowledges that delivery statistics provided by JWSMedia are the official and definitive measurements of JWSMedia's performance on any delivery obligations provided in the IO. No other measurements or usage statistics (including those of Advertiser or any third party) shall be accepted by JWSMedia or have any effect on this Agreement. An "impression" means each occurrence of a display of an Advertisement and a "click through" means each time a JWSMedia web site user ("User") clicks on an Advertisement.

C. NO CONSE Q UENTIAL DAMAGES. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL JWSMedia BE LIABLE FOR CONSE Q UENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE, BASED ON CLAIMS OF ADVERTISER, ITS APPOINTEES OR ITS OR THEIR CUSTOMERS (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLAIMS FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, USE OF OR RELIANCE ON THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER, STOPPAGE OF OTHER WORK OR IMPAIRMENT OF OTHER ASSETS), ARISING OUT OF BREACH OR FAILURE OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, MISREPRESENTATION, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY IN TORT OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY THAT JWSMedia MAY INCUR IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID TO JWSMedia BY ADVERTISER DURING THE PRECEDING YEAR OR $1000. THE LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION WILL NOT APPLY ONLY IF AND TO THE EXTENT THAT THE LAW OR A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION RE Q UIRES LIABILITY UNDER APPLICABLE LAW BEYOND AND DESPITE THESE LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS. c.

Content. Advertiser represents and warrants to JWSMedia that the use, reproduction, distribution, transmission or display of Advertisements, any data regarding Users, and any material to which Users can link, or any products or services made available to Users, through Advertisements: (i) is not and will not be defamatory, libelous, obscene, indecent, or illegal, (ii) does not and will not violate any right of confidentiality, privacy or publicity of any third party, and (iii) does not and will not violate any copyright, trade-mark, trade secret, or other intellectual property right of any third party.

11. TERM AND TERMINATION.

a. Term. The term of this Agreement ("Term") commences on the Acceptance Date set forth in the IO and terminates on the End Date set forth in the IO, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section.

Suspension of Advertising. If Advertiser fails to make any payment or otherwise breaches the Agreement, JWSMedia may at its sole discretion and option suspend all services for Advertiser until Advertiser remedies the breach. Any failure by Advertiser to deliver acceptable Advertisements to JWSMedia in accordance with Sections 3 and 5 shall result in a pro-rata reduction in any commitment by JWSMedia to deliver a specific number of Measurement Units commensurate with Advertiser's delay, but will not excuse Advertiser from its obligation to pay for such reserved inventory or result in any right to a refund or credit for Advertiser. Any action taken pursuant to this paragraph will not limit or exclude any other claims or remedies that JWSMedia may assert under this Agreement or by law or constitute a breach of any provision of this Agreement. d. Termination Consequences. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, any rights granted to Advertiser will immediately cease and all fees and other charges for Advertisements placed through the date of termination will be due. If JWSMedia terminates this Agreement for material breach or Advertiser fails to provide acceptable Advertisements for JWSMedia to display pursuant to this Agreement, Advertiser will remain liable for all fees due hereunder without right of refund or credit. The provisions of Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
