All capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in these Terms or the IO, as applicable. Advertiser and Company hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:



1. CALL ADVERTISING SERVICES.

a. Description. Company will perform digital call advertising services specified on the applicable IO (collectively, the “Advertising Services”) which include the placement of advertising content or materials provided by or approved for use by Advertiser pursuant to this Agreement (collectively the “Ad Content”), together with the applicable Company Numbers on Company-designated online or offline media, which may be developed or customized for Advertiser (such as business profile pages), Company-owned or operated media (such as business information and local search web sites, among others) or websites or other media including voice- or mobile-based media products owned or operated by Company’s distribution partners and affiliates through which Company makes the Advertising Services available (each third party distribution partner or affiliate being referred to herein as “Distribution Partner”) (collectively, “Company Network”). The Advertising Services also include the reporting and delivery of associated performance and user data in various media (collectively, the “Data”).

b. Rights and Permissions. Advertiser agrees to deliver or allow Company to access (including from Advertiser’s Web site or other publicly available sources), as the case may be, all Ad Content required or requested by Company in the format specified by Company at least seven (7) business days prior to the relevant Start Date. Advertiser hereby grants Company the non-exclusive right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivatives of, publicly display, perform, and distribute the Ad Content (and derivatives thereof) and to use all Advertiser trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, ad copy and other identifiers (“Marks”) in connection with the Ads in any form of online or offline media determined by Company (whether now existing or hereafter created). In addition, subject to Advertiser’s prior approval in each instance, Company may obtain custom URLs for an Advertiser-or Client- branded Internet presence within the Company Network. The Ad Content or other advertising material published pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Ad(s)”) may be placed or delivered on any Web site or other media throughout the Company Network, and Advertiser authorizes and consents to all such placements. To the extent Ads are placed on Distribution Partner media or search engines, Company shall have the authority to enter into such Distribution Partner agreements as may be necessary to provide the Advertising Services. Upon Company’s request, Advertiser will make available to any interested party a written confirmation of such agency relationship. Company cannot guarantee inclusion within the published results of any particular Distribution Partner.

2. RESTRICTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITES

a.  General.  The Ad Content must comply in all respects with Company’s content submission guidelines, policies and instructions as the same may be provided by Company to Advertiser in writing (email sufficing) from time to time during the Term. Advertiser shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining any computer and phone equipment (and the like) and ancillary products (collectively, the “Equipment”) needed to access and use the Advertising Services. Advertiser shall also be responsible for maintaining appropriate security safeguards with respect to property for which it maintains ownership, control, use under license and/or access, including its Equipment, its Advertiser account, passwords and files, any Data acquired hereunder and any Confidential Information. Advertiser shall be solely responsible for its use of the Advertiser Data. Advertiser will not (and will not cause any third party to), directly or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Advertising Services or any software, documentation or data provided by Company in connection with the Advertising Services (collectively, “Company Materials”); modify or create derivative works based on the Advertising Services or any Company Materials; or copy (except for archival purposes), lease, distribute or otherwise transfer rights to the Advertising Services or any Company Materials; or remove any proprietary notices or labels. Advertiser may access Company websites solely to manage Advertiser’s account. Advertiser may not disseminate any information on the Company websites, nor, with the exception of those automated means expressly made available by Company (if any), use any automated means to access the Company websites, including agents, scripts, robots, or spiders.  Advertiser agrees not to interfere with the proper working of any Company website. The parties acknowledge and agree that Advertiser will be deemed responsible for each of its agents, representatives, subcontractors, licensees, and any other Advertiser affiliates that have access to or otherwise use the Advertising Services or any Company Materials (collectively, “Advertiser Affiliates”), and their respective compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

b. Company Numbers. Advertiser shall not have the right to re-assign the call-through telephone numbers provided by Company for the purposes of the Advertising Services (the “Company Numbers”) or to use them other than as explicitly set out herein without the prior written consent of Company. All Company Numbers remain the property of Company, pursuant to agreements with its various telephone carriers and vendors, and are made available to Customer solely for use in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that Advertiser’s use of any Company Numbers may be further limited by, among other factors, changes to telephone carrier terms, changes in carrier relationships, guidelines recommended by Federal, state or local regulators, or changes to applicable law and regulation from time to time.

c.  Recorded Call Services. Recording of calls under the Advertising Services (“Recorded Call Services”) is part of an optional product feature. Advertiser may elect not to use such product feature in connection with the Advertising Services. The terms of this subsection shall apply solely in the event that Advertiser elects to use such product feature. Advertiser understands that, when a person (the “Caller”) calls a Company Number, such call may be recorded and, therefore, Advertiser or its contractors or agents, at the direction of Advertiser, shall advise all Callers to Company Numbers prior to any connection to Advertiser or, if applicable, its Clients or others that each call is subject to recording and monitoring (the “Recorded Call Notice”). In connection therewith, Advertiser shall use all available product functionality or other available means to ensure that the Caller receives the appropriate Recorded Call Notice prior to connection with the Advertiser designated telephone number(s); will be automatically advised that each call is subject to recording and monitoring prior to the connection of the telephone call to the Advertiser through the Company Number (the “Recorded Call Message”). If Advertiser has elected to use the Recorded Call Services, Advertiser represents, warrants and agrees that in connection with its use thereof, that Advertiser has reviewed the legality of recording, monitoring, storing, and divulging telephone calls, that Advertiser is permitted to engage in those activities, and that Advertiser shall use the Recorded Call Service in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Advertiser represents and warrants that it has reviewed the proposed usage of the Company system with its legal counsel, and that Advertiser has established proper procedures to protect the privacy of, and otherwise comply with all applicable laws with respect to, Callers and the Call Receivers. In the event the Recorded Call Message requires a revision in order to comply with applicable law, then Advertiser shall promptly notify Company in writing of that fact, proposing the exact language that Advertiser requires to comply with the applicable laws. Advertiser must notify Company in the event the Advertiser learns of a required revision to the Recorded Call Message. Advertiser agrees and acknowledges that Company accepts no responsibility for (1) the legality of recording, monitoring, storing and/or divulging telephone calls and (2) the legality of the language used in the Recorded Call Message. Advertiser agrees and acknowledges that applicable laws and regulations may require that Advertiser provide notice to and/or receive express consent and permission from, in writing or otherwise, all agents (including employees), independent contractors, and/or other persons who receive telephone calls recorded by the Recorded Call Service (the “Call Receivers”). Advertiser agrees, acknowledges, represents and warrants that it will provide and/or obtain all notices, consents, and permission relating to Call Receivers, as required by applicable laws and regulations.

d.  Calculations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or contained in any separate writing, Advertiser acknowledges and agrees Company is solely responsible for tracking and calculating the performance, delivery, and other metrics in connection with the Advertising Services, including all qualifying telephone calls (the “Calls”). Advertiser further understands and agrees such measurements and data will be the only and definitive measure thereof. Additionally, in an effort to detect, identify, and eliminate low quality traffic (including that generated by automated tools, robots or other deceptive software) from the Company Network, Company may make use of filtering and monitoring techniques. Some information or data provided to Company by Advertiser may not be processed on a real-time basis and may be subject to the latency of the Internet, the Company Network, and Distribution Partner media. Furthermore, the effectiveness (and time and date of effectiveness) of all information, pricing terms and data (including any and all amendments or supplements thereto) provided to Company by Advertiser may be subject to the prior acceptance of Company. Company may provide Advertiser with online access to usage statistics. Usage statistics shall not constitute a definitive expression of the amounts owed for Advertising Services rendered.

3. PAYMENT

a. Credit Reporting. Advertiser authorizes Company to use credit reporting agencies to evaluate Advertiser’s credit history. Upon request, Advertiser shall provide Company with any necessary information or consent. In the event of any negative change to Advertiser’s credit profile, Company may adjust payment terms or require payment in advance, as applicable.

b.  Obligation to Pay. Advertiser agrees to promptly pay (and in no event later than thirty (30) days from end of the applicable calendar month in which such amounts were incurred) all advertising fees charged to it by Company in accordance with the IO. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement or the IO are in the lawful money of the United States of America. Advertiser shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Advertising Services other than taxes based on Company’s net income.

c.  Failure to Promptly Pay Amounts Owed. If Advertiser fails to pay any charge when due, irrespective of the payment method utilized, Company may charge a monthly late payment fee equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the owing balance or the highest rate allowed by law, if lower. Additionally, Company may charge an overdue payment penalty fee. Termination of this Agreement and/or payment of late payment charges shall not prejudice any other rights or remedies that may be available to Company. Advertiser agrees it is responsible for all reasonable expenses and attorneys’ fees Company incurs to collect payments owed.

d.  Payment Disputes. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Advertiser waives all claims relating to any payment dispute of which it does not notify to Company within five (5) days following the month in which the charge was incurred. The resolution of any payment dispute will be determined by Company in its sole discretion, and Company has no obligation to provide a particular remedy to Advertiser. Refunds (if any) are at Company’s discretion and shall only be in the form of advertising credit.

4.    RESERVATION OF RIGHTS; MODIFICATIONS; GOVERNMENT MATTERS.

a.  Reservation of Rights. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not affect, ownership by either party of, or rights of either party in, any of its intellectual property rights, content, products and services, and nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as the assignment or transfer of any ownership rights in any of the foregoing from one party to the other. Other than the express licenses set forth herein, nothing in this Agreement, and nothing in any statement made in connection with this Agreement, will be deemed a license (by implication, estoppel or otherwise) under either party’s patent rights or other intellectual property rights. Any Data collected or created hereunder during the Term and through Advertiser’s account, that is specific to Advertiser or its Client(s) is the intellectual property of Advertiser (collectively, the “Advertiser Data”), subject to Company’s non-exclusive right to use such Data in connection with the delivery of the Advertising Services and operation of its business, which may include reporting Advertiser Data on an aggregated basis in accordance with Section 5 hereof. Neither party’s performance according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement will in any way broaden the intellectual property rights of the other party. Both parties reserve all rights not expressly granted.

b.  Modifications. From time to time, Company may make immaterial modifications to the Advertising Services (including the look and feel, and the functionality of any API). Advertiser’s sole remedy with respect to such modification is to terminate this Agreement or suspend or cancel its account(s). Advertiser’s continued use of the Advertising Services following a modification shall constitute its consent thereto.

c.  Government Matters. Advertiser may not remove or export from Advertiser’s jurisdiction or allow the export or re-export of the Advertising Services or anything related thereto in violation of any applicable export control or similar restrictions, laws or regulations. Company is not a telephone company. Company purchases telecommunications services and uses such services to provide enhanced service products to Advertiser. If at any time Company’s right to allocate Company Numbers or otherwise provide the Advertising Services to Advertiser is impaired or regulated by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, including, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission or any state public utility commission, Company shall have the right to terminate, suspend or amend this Agreement automatically upon written notice Company shall have no liability or obligation to Advertiser of any kind arising out of such a termination, suspension or change in Advertising Services, as the case may be.

11.  MISCELLANEOUS. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The word “include” or any variants thereof used herein shall be construed non-exclusively to mean “including without limitation.” This Agreement is governed by Washington state law without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Advertiser and agent (if applicable) irrevocably submit to venue and personal jurisdiction in the federal and state courts in King County, Washington for any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, and waive all objections to jurisdiction or venue of such courts and agree not to commence nor prosecute any such dispute other than in such courts. The prevailing party is entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in any action or suit to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement, or to interpret any provision of this Agreement. Advertiser shall not assign or otherwise dispose of this Agreement without Company’s prior written consent. This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the parties’ successors and lawful assigns. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement must be made in writing and will be deemed given as of the day the notice is received either by messenger, delivery service or certified mail, postage prepaid or sent (if via email) and such notice must be addressed (i) if to Company, to Company c/o Marchex, Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 520 Pike Street, Suite 2000, Seattle, WA 98101; (ii) if to Advertiser, to Advertiser at the email address stipulated on the corresponding IO.

In the event an IO provision conflicts with any provision of these Terms, the IO provision shall prevail only to the extent of the conflict. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an IO’s mention of a campaign start and end date shall not affect the applicability of these Terms, but are for reference purposes only.

Company and/or its parent company may make public announcements regarding the relationship established by this Agreement, which may include limited use of Advertiser marks or logos.

However, Advertiser may enter into other agreements with Company relating to other advertising campaigns, which campaigns shall be governed by such other agreements. Advertiser has not relied upon any statements or promises in entering into this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein, and any conflicting or additional terms contained in any other documents (e.g., an IO’s reference to other terms and conditions) are void. Company may modify these Terms by posting the revised Terms to its website. Advertiser’s continued participation in the Advertising Services following such changes signifies Advertiser’s acceptance of such modifications. Sections 2(d), 3, and 5-11 shall survive termination, along with any provision that might reasonably be deemed to survive such termination.

Company reserve(s) the right to limit the number of Queries   under this Agreement for any period during the Term hereof. 
     
  2.  
  3. Click Quality and Traffic   Quality. The parties recognize that it is essential that ability of   Company to generate revenue hereunder is directly dependent on the quality   of the click-throughs and User traffic delivered by Distribution Partner   and Distribution Partner Media. In order to ensure high quality traffic,  Distribution Partner agrees to neither: (a) directly or indirectly provide   incentives for clicks on links in any fashion, including but not limited   to, paying visitors to click on links, offering entries into sweepstakes   or donating money from clicks to organizations or charities; (b) directly   or indirectly use any automated methods to create Non-Qualifying CTs;  nor (c) directly or indirectly provide Non-Qualifying Clicks. Company   shall be solely responsible for determining whether a click-through   is a Qualifying CT or a Non-Qualifying CT. With respect to those Qualifying   CTs, Company shall be solely responsible for determining the quality   of such click-through. Company shall also be solely responsible for   determining the quality of User traffic delivered by Distribution Partner   and Distribution Partner Media. If Company should determine that Distribution   Partner is violating either (a), (b) or (c) above, Company may immediately   terminate this Agreement and, in addition to all other remedies, withhold   payment of any Revenue Share Payment generated for that pay period.  Distribution Partner will also be responsible for refunding any funds   paid for previous periods during which such activities may have taken   place. Distribution Partner will inform Company immediately if it becomes   aware or has legitimate concern of any fraudulent or questionable activity.  Such activity includes but is not limited to activities such as automated   traffic generation (for, example traffic generated using scripts, bots   or other programs) or misleading links that result in Click-throughs   without knowledge of the user. Company may, at its sole discretion,  limit or block Click-throughs from sources of traffic or sites that   it considers questionable, for any reason. Determination of Company   regarding such sources of traffic shall be deemed final. Distribution   Partner understands that Company may use all information about a particular   source of traffic to determine click quality and legitimacy. Therefore,  Distribution Partner agrees to allow all clicks generated from a specific   sub-affiliate to reach Company’s servers, except for clicks from sources   previously blocked by Company. For example, if Distribution Partner   determines that a certain click came through a "proxy" server,  Distribution Partner must allow this click to reach Company servers.
     
  4.  
  5. Distribution Partner Media   Implementation. Distribution Partner shall not display the Licensed   Materials on any Distribution Partner Media that:

    • -not modify, change or edit     the Paid Listings, and display the Paid Listings in the form provided     by Company;
    •      
    • -not use the Paid Listings     on any form of untargeted display; and
    •      
    • -not display any price-related     data with the Paid Listings. 
           
    •  
     
  1. Additional Remedies. If Company   determine(s) that Distribution Partner or any of its partners or affiliates   has breached or violated any of the foregoing agreements or requirements,  Company may immediately terminate this Agreement and, in addition to   all other remedies, withhold payment of any corresponding Revenue Share   Payment (as defined below). Distribution Partner shall be responsible   for refunding any funds paid for previous periods during which, in the   sole discretion and determination of Company a violation of this Section   B has occurred. Distribution Partner is wholly responsible for the activities   of its affiliate(s) in their compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  Distribution Partner shall be liable to the fullest extent allowable   under law and this Agreement for any breach of the agreements or violations   of the requirements hereunder (whether resulting from the actions of   Distribution Partner or any of its partners or affiliates or otherwise).  This provision shall not be deemed to limit in any way the remedies   available to Company under contract or at law.

C. PAYMENT.

     
  1. Revenue Share Payments. Subject   to the Minimum Payment (as defined below), Company will make monthly   revenue share payments (the "Revenue Share Payments") to Distribution   Partner as a percentage of Net Revenue. The percentage of Net Revenue   applicable to the Revenue Share Payments hereunder shall be set forth   on the relevant Term Sheet signed and delivered by the parties or accepted   online by Distribution Partner, as the case may be. Such percentage   shall be determined by the average number of daily Qualifying CTs for   the applicable calendar month according to the schedule set forth in   the Term Sheet. Revenue Share Payments are due and payable to Distribution   Partner forty-five (45) days after the end of the applicable month. 
     
  2.  
  3. Minimum Payment. Company shall   only be required to make Revenue Share Payments if the compensation   accrued by Distribution Partner in a given month exceeds one hundred   dollars U.S. ($100). If the compensation accrued by Distribution Partner   in a given month is less than one hundred dollars U.S. ($100), then   no Revenue Share Payment shall be made for that period and Distribution   Partner shall relinquish the Revenue Share Payment for such month. 
     
  4.

The   parties agree that Company will be solely responsible for: (a) tracking   and calculating Qualifying CTs delivered and all other traffic measurements   or data; (b) determining the quality of each Qualifying CT; and (c)  reporting and calculating Net Revenue and Revenue Share Payments. No   other traffic measurements or calculations will be deemed relevant nor   affect either party’s performance under this Agreement. Distribution   Partner shall have no longer than five (5) days from the last day of   the month prior to dispute any material discrepancy pertaining to the   data underlying the Revenue Share Payments. Failure to report such discrepancy   within such five (5) day period shall be considered by both parties   as a forfeiture of Distribution Partner’s right to dispute. In the event   that the parties’ traffic measurements differ by an amount in excess   of ten percent (10%) of the total amount for any calendar month period,  as reported by Distribution Partner within the foregoing dispute period,  the parties shall work together in good faith to resolve any such discrepancies.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the traffic measurements and data of   Company shall be determinative of the payment obligations hereunder.

D. LICENSES AND OWNERSHIP.

     
  1. License by Company. Subject   to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Company grant(s) to Distribution   Partner a revocable, limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable,  non- sublicensable license during the Term (the "License")  to use: (a) the Company API solely for the purpose of facilitating the   duties of the parties in accordance with this Agreement and to reproduce,  reformat and publicly display the other Licensed Materials provided   by Company on Distribution Partner Media in accordance with this Agreement;  and (b) the Company Element and Licensed Materials for the purpose of   displaying the Company Element on Distribution Partner Media.

Advertiser Standard Terms and Conditions

These Advertiser Standard Terms and Conditions ("Terms"), together with the terms set forth in any IO (as defined below), constitute a legally binding and enforceable Advertising Service (as defined below) agreement ("Agreement")  between (1) the person agreeing (and upon whose behalf the person agrees)  to these Terms or any document referencing these Terms by: signing such document, or accepting these Terms electronically or by Participating (as defined below) ("Advertiser"); and (2) as specified in the corresponding IO: Marchex, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Marchex"),  or one or more of the following wholly-owned subsidiaries of Marchex:  Marchex, LLC (f/k/a Marchex Adhere SSC, LLC f/k/a IndustryBrains, LLC),  a Delaware limited liability company and successor in interest to Marchex Adhere PPC, Inc. (f/k/a Enhance Interactive, Inc. f/k/a ah-ha.com,  Inc.); or Marchex Sales, Inc. (f/k/a MDNH, Inc.) a Delaware corporation (as applicable, the "Company").

  1. POLICIES. Use of the Advertising Service (as defined below) is subject to applicable Company and Distribution Partner (as defined below) policies, including the Marchex Traffic Quality Statement (http://www.marchex.com/legal/traffic-quality); and Marchex Advertising Guidelines (http://www.marchex.com/legal/advertising-guidelines) (collectively, "Policies"). Policies may be modified at any time without notice. Company may reject or modify Ad Content (as defined below) to comply with Policies.
  2. SELECTED DEFINITIONS. For the purpose of these Terms, "Ad" means any Ad Content (as defined below) or other advertising material published pursuant to this Agreement. "Ad Content" means any content, information, keyword, search listing or URL which forms part of, is displayed, or is reachable by the user in connection with the Advertising Service. "Advertising Service" means the advertising service provided to Advertiser pursuant to this Agreement. "Company Network" means the network of Company owned or operated websites, and websites owned or operated by distribution partners and affiliates through which Company makes the Advertising Service available (each third party distribution partner or affiliate being referred to herein as "Distribution Partner"). "IO" means a written or online insertion order or similar document agreed to by the parties (including via an account management system). "Participating" means provision of the Advertising Service to Advertiser, effective as of the earlier of: (a) the display of the first Ad; or (b) Advertiser’s execution of an IO. 
  3. CREDIT REPORTING. Advertiser authorizes Company and any Distribution Partner to use credit reporting agencies to evaluate Advertiser’s credit history. Upon request, Advertiser shall provide Company or Distribution Partner with any necessary information or consent.
  4. CALCULATIONS. 
    1. Generally. Notwithstanding   anything to the contrary herein or contained in any separate writing,   Advertiser acknowledges and agrees Company is solely responsible for   tracking and calculating the performance, delivery, and other metrics   in connection with the Advertising Service, including without limitation:   click-throughs ("CTs"), page views, and/or impressions delivered,   the applicable CT and/or cost per thousand ("CPM") price(s)   (or other pricing) and all other traffic measurements and data. Advertiser   further understands and agrees such measurements and data will be the   only and definitive measure thereof. Additionally, in an effort to detect,   identify, and eliminate low quality traffic (including that generated   by automated tools, robots or other deceptive software) from the Company   Network, Company may make use of filtering and monitoring techniques. 
    2. Overruns. Due to the   various frequencies of search engines and directories refreshing their   indexes, occasionally campaign overruns may occur. Overruns, not to   exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount ordered, as measured on a calendar   monthly basis, shall constitute delivery of a valid and authorized Advertising   Service under this Agreement, and Advertiser shall be obligated to make   payment up to the aforementioned 10% overrun maximum. Overruns will   be billed at the applicable pricing rate (e.g., CPM or CT) for the Advertising   Service delivered. Additionally, to the limited extent Advertiser has   contracted with Marchex Connect NA, Inc., as an agreed upon allocation   of costs, irrespective of the retail amount of any media spend, Marchex   Connect NA, Inc. may in some circumstances allocate up to $0.07 of the   total agreed pricing to revenue-per-thousand tracking or other administrative   services; provided, however, that such allocation shall not alter the   total payment and pricing rate obligations of Advertiser set forth on   the IO. 
    3. Latency. Some information   or data provided to Company by Advertiser may not be processed on a   real-time basis and may be subject to the latency of the Internet, the   Company Network, and Distribution Partner websites and search engines.   Furthermore, the effectiveness (and time and date of effectiveness)   of all information, pricing terms and data (including any and all amendments   or supplements thereto) provided to Company by Advertiser may be subject   to the prior acceptance of Company. 
    4. Usage Statistics. Company   may provide Advertiser with online access to usage statistics. Usage   statistics shall not constitute a definitive expression of the amounts   owed for Advertising Services rendered. 
  5. PAYMENT. 

    1. Obligation to Pay.   Advertiser agrees to promptly pay all advertising fees charged to it   by Company, including any applicable taxes or charges imposed by any   governmental entity, in accordance with this Agreement. If Advertiser   utilizes Company’s account management service, then the applicable pricing   rate (e.g., CPM, CT) shall be set by Company. To the extent Ads are   placed on Distribution Partner websites or search engines, Company shall   be deemed Advertiser’s purchasing, paying and transaction agent, with   express authority to enter into such Distribution Partner agreements   as may be necessary to provide the Advertising Services, and Advertiser   shall be the sole obligor with respect to amounts and obligations arising   from any such agreement. Upon Company’s request, Advertiser will make   available to any interested party a written confirmation of such agency   relationship. 
    2. Credit Card Provisions   (if applicable).
      1. Auto-Renew Service. If Advertiser participates in the Advertising Service using the Auto-Renew or "Continuous Traffic" payment plan, Advertiser authorizes Company to automatically charge its credit card the Auto-Renew payment amount selected by Advertiser (the "Auto-Renew Amount") whenever Advertiser’s account has: less than ten dollars ($10); five (5) days of advertising funds remaining; or twenty-five percent (25%) of the total Auto-Renew Amount remaining, as specified in the IO (an "Auto-Renew Event"). Advertiser understands that heavy traffic may result in multiple charges to its account each month. If Advertiser is required to participate in the Auto-Renew Service, it may opt to instead maintain a deposit with Company. 
      2. Fixed Payment. If Advertiser chooses the monthly "Fixed Payment" plan, Advertiser authorizes Company to automatically charge its credit card the fixed payment amount indicated by Advertiser in the IO (the "Fixed Amount") upon Advertiser’s registration and thereafter on each monthly anniversary of Advertiser’s registration (the "Charge Date"). At such time as the advertising fees incurred equal or exceed the Fixed Amount, Company shall suspend the display of any Ad(s) until the next Charge Date. 
      3. Pay-As-You-Go. If Advertiser chooses the "Pay-As-You-Go" plan, at such time as the advertising fees incurred equal or exceed Advertiser’s account balance, Company will suspend the Advertising Service unless and until Advertiser authorizes Company to replenish its account. Company will notify Advertiser when its account has five (5) days of funds remaining.

        Advertiser authorizes Company to charge its credit card for any amount owed under this Agreement. Company may notify Advertiser each time its credit card is charged. If Company is unable to collect owed amounts from Advertiser’s credit card, in addition to any additional charges, Advertiser shall pay Company an insufficient funds fee equal to five percent (5%) of the total amount due. 
    3. Payment by Invoice (if   applicable). Advertiser agrees to promptly pay Company (and in no   event later than thirty (30) days from the invoice date) all charges   to its account in United States dollars, in accordance with this Agreement. 
    4. Failure to Promptly Pay   Amounts Owed. If Company is unable to charge Advertiser’s credit   card, there is a chargeback, or Advertiser otherwise fails to promptly   pay any charge, irrespective of the payment method utilized, Company   may charge a monthly late payment fee equal to one and one-half percent   (1.5%) of the owing balance or the highest rate allowed by law, if lower.   Additionally, Company may charge an overdue payment penalty fee. Termination   of this Agreement and/or payment of late payment charges shall not prejudice   any other rights or remedies that may be available to Company. Advertiser   agrees it is responsible for all reasonable expenses and attorneys’   fees Company incurs to collect payments owed. 
    5. Payment Disputes. To   the fullest extent permitted by law, Advertiser waives all claims relating   to any payment dispute (including without limitation claims for charges   based on suspected non- qualifying CTs) which it does not notify to   Company within five (5) days following the month in which the charge   was incurred. The resolution of any payment dispute will be determined   by Company in its sole discretion, and Company has no obligation to   provide a particular remedy to Advertiser. Refunds (if any) are at Company’s   discretion and shall only be in the form of advertising credit. 
    6. Non-Refundable Amounts.   The Advertising Service may be subject to a one-time non- refundable   account service fee. Company may retain as an account service fee up   to two hundred dollars ($200) of the balance of Advertiser’s account   if such account remains idle for six (6) months or more. 
  6. PROMOTIONS. From time to time Company may add placement credits to Advertiser’s account. Such placement credits may cause more favorable placement or positioning, resulting in increased CTs and/or impressions. However, unless Advertiser specifically elects to change the CPM or CPC on selected keywords, Advertiser will not pay any increased CPC or CPM which would otherwise result from such placement. Additionally, Advertiser may be eligible to participate in bonus programs which Company may establish from time to time. The establishment and duration of any such bonus program, as well as the terms and conditions thereof, shall be determined by Company. Advertiser will be included in any applicable bonus programs. Any account credits received by Advertiser as part of such programs are discretionary, non-refundable, and revocable. If Advertiser signs up with Company with a promotional rate, Advertiser agrees to any additional terms applicable to such rate. Once the promotion has expired or is terminated by Company, the standard rates shall apply. 
  7. COMPANY NETWORK PLACEMENT; NON-ADVERTISER PROPERTY; MODIFICATIONS. 

    1. Company Network Placement.   The Ad(s) may be placed or delivered on any Web site throughout the   Company Network, and Advertiser authorizes and consents to all such   placements. Company cannot guarantee inclusion in the Company Network   nor within the published results of any particular Distribution Partner. 
    2. Advertiser Access.   Advertiser may access Company websites and/or (upon Company approval)   the Company application program interface ("API") solely to   manage Advertiser’s account. Advertiser will protect any passwords or   other credentials associated with Advertiser’s account and takes full   responsibility for Advertiser’s own and third party use of Advertiser’s   account. Advertiser may not disseminate any information on the Company   websites, nor, with the exception of those automated means expressly   made available by Company (if any), use any automated means to access   the Company websites, including without limitation, agents, scripts,   robots, or spiders. Advertiser agrees not to interfere with the proper   working of any Company website. 
    3. Ownership of Non-Advertiser   Property. Title and full ownership rights in and to the Company   Network, together with any and all ideas, concepts, computer programs   and other technology supporting or otherwise relating to Company’s operation   of the Advertising Service and Company Network (collectively, the "Company   Materials") shall remain at all times solely with Company and/or   the respective manufacturer or author. Advertiser has not acquired any   ownership interest in the Company Materials and will not acquire any   ownership interest in the Company Materials by reason of this Agreement. 
    4. Modifications. At any   time, Company may make immaterial modifications to the Advertising Service   (including without limitation, the look and feel, and the functionality   of any API), or to the pricing and spend provisions applicable to the   Advertising Service. Advertiser’s sole remedy with respect to any modification   is to terminate this Agreement or suspend or cancel its account(s).   Advertiser’s continued use of the Advertising Service following a modification   shall constitute its consent thereto. 
  8. SUBMISSIONS. Violation of Policies may result in termination of Advertiser’s account without refund for any charges already incurred. Company reserves the right to include in each of Advertiser’s keyword and/or paid listing campaigns related search terms and/or category combinations derived from the search terms and descriptions Advertiser submits to Company. Advertiser acknowledges that certain Advertising Services may include the creation of Ads and keywords, which shall be subject to the same Advertiser obligations and assumptions. Additionally, Company may modify, replace, or supplement keywords based on quality search practices, industry standards, Policies, or performance issues, including without limitation: the use of methodologies that correct misspellings, combining singular and plural terms and filtering inappropriate terms. Company reserves the right to update and change these methodologies in its sole discretion. Furthermore, Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that any Ad shall be subject to any additional standards, practices and/or methodologies employed by a Distribution Partner. Company shall be authorized (but shall have no obligation) to make such changes to the Ad and its keywords to comply with any distribution Partner requirements or restrictions. 
  9. REDIRECTION OF TRAFFIC. Advertiser understands and acknowledges that it will receive filtered and unfiltered traffic under this Agreement. In Company’s ongoing effort to address traffic quality, Company actively screens and monitors Company Network traffic. As a result of these efforts, Advertiser may not be charged for certain clicks which Company has determined do not meet its quality standards. If Advertiser forwards Company Network clicks to third parties it acknowledges that it alone bears the entire risk associated with such forwarding. Company is not responsible for any complaints, lack of payment, or other damage suffered by Advertiser as a result of Advertiser forwarding clicks received from Company to a third party. 
  10. CONFIDENTIALITY. "Confidential Information" includes: (a) Ads, prior to publication; (b) these Terms; (c) any usage statistics disclosed by Company; (d) results, data, or performance information relating to the Advertising Service or any Company-provided service; and (e) any Company proprietary information shared pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, technology, process, Company Materials, and know-how. Confidential Information also includes Company provided information which, under the circumstances surrounding its disclosure would be reasonably deemed confidential, or that which is designated "confidential", "proprietary" or some similar designation by Company, whether upon disclosure or thereafter. During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of two (2) years following the termination or expiration of this Agreement, Advertiser will not use nor disclose any Confidential Information, except to an employee or agent who has a need to know same, and who is bound by confidentiality obligations similar to those contained in this Section 10. Advertiser may not use any portion of any Confidential Information for any purpose other than those provided for under this Agreement. In addition, within thirty (30) days of termination or expiration of this Agreement, at Company’s option, Advertiser shall return or confirm destruction of Company’s Confidential Information. Advertiser acknowledges that if it breaches this Section 10, Company will have no adequate remedy at law available to it, will suffer irreparable harm, and will be entitled to immediate equitable relief. The restrictions placed on the disclosure of Confidential Information by this Section 10 do not apply to information that has become publicly known through no breach by Advertiser, or has been: (i) independently developed by Advertiser without access to Company’s Confidential Information; (ii) approved in writing for release by Company; or (iii.) required to be disclosed pursuant to a valid law or court order, subpoena, or the rules of any applicable securities exchange; provided, however, that Advertiser promptly notifies Company of such requirement and reasonably cooperates with Company to seek confidential treatment or to obtain an appropriate protective order to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. 
  11. REPRESENTATIONS. Advertiser represents, warrants and covenants that: Any information or data Advertiser has provided or will provide under this Agreement is and will be accurate and complete.

Advertiser shall not advertise anything illegal, nor engage in any illegal or fraudulent business practice. Advertiser shall post on its Web site(s), and adhere to, a privacy policy which complies with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations.

In the event Advertiser submits Ads from third parties to the Service, Advertiser shall have obtained terms with such third parties which include Company and its affiliates as third party beneficiaries to such terms, same which shall provide Advertiser the same or greater protection than the protections provided Company hereunder (e.g., a full warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability clause, indemnification provisions, and representations and warranties surrounding the Ad Content). If Advertiser is entering into this Agreement on behalf of another (a "Principal"), Advertiser agrees to the foregoing representations for itself and for its Principal and also represents that it is Principal’s authorized agent and has express authority to bind Principal to this Agreement. 
  12. DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Company has not made any promise, affirmation of fact, or provided any description or sample pertaining to the quality, specifications, or performance of the Advertising Service. Therefore, to the fullest extent permitted by law, COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION: AGAINST INFRINGEMENT; SATISFACTORY QUALITY; MERCHANTABILITY; AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Company also disclaims any warranty arising by usage of trade, course of dealing, or course of performance.

Any reference in this Agreement to return on investment, advertising spend, campaign expectations and the like are for reference purposes only. Company is not responsible for the consequences of any redirection or other uses of traffic, as further set forth in Section 9. Furthermore, Advertiser understands that third parties may generate impressions or clicks on Ads for prohibited or improper purposes, and Advertiser accepts the risk of any such impressions and clicks. Advertiser’s exclusive recourse for suspected invalid impressions or clicks is for Advertiser to make a claim pursuant to Section 5 e. In the event Company fails to publish Ad or in the event of any other failure, technical or otherwise, of Ad to appear as provided in this Agreement, the sole liability of Company shall be limited to that set forth in Section 5 e. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION: LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, INTEREST, GOODWILL, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA OR FOR ANY LOSS OR INTERRUPTION TO ADVERTISER’S BUSINESS) WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE APPLICABILITY OF ANY LIMITED REMEDIES PROVIDED HEREIN, COMPANY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE LESSER OF: THE AMOUNT PAID BY ADVERTISER TO COMPANY FOR THE AD WHICH IS THE BASIS OF LIABILITY; OR THE AMOUNT PAID BY ADVERTISER TO COMPANY IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE BASIS OF THE LIABILITY. 
  13. INDEMNIFICATION. Advertiser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Company, (including its officers, directors, agents, employees, affiliates) and its Distribution Partners from and against any and all loss, liability, and expense (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by reason of any claims, proceedings or suits based on or arising out of the Ad Content, Advertiser’s website, a breach of this Agreement, any act or omission of Advertiser or Company acting as Advertiser’s agent, any act or omission of a third party for which Advertiser acted as principal (each, a "Claim").

  14. TERM AND TERMINATION. Each party may terminate this Agreement upon prior written notice to the other party.

Unless otherwise set forth in the IO, Advertiser shall provide the aforementioned notice no less than thirty (30) days prior to the requested termination date. 
  15. MISCELLANEOUS. Unenforceable provisions will be modified to reflect the parties’ intent and only to the extent necessary to make them enforceable, and remaining provisions will continue in full effect. This Agreement is governed by Washington state law without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Advertiser and agent (if applicable) irrevocably submit to venue and personal jurisdiction in the federal and state courts in King County, Washington for any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, and waive all objections to jurisdiction or venue of such courts and agree not to commence nor prosecute any such dispute other than in such courts. The prevailing party is entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in any action or suit to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement, or to interpret any provision of this Agreement. Advertiser shall not assign or otherwise dispose of this Agreement without Company’s prior written consent. This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the parties’ successors and lawful assigns.

No waiver of a breach of any provision hereof shall be deemed a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision. In the event an IO provision conflicts with any provision of these Terms, the IO provision shall prevail only to the extent of the conflict. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an IO’s mention of a campaign start and end date shall not affect the applicability of these Terms, but are for reference purposes only. Advertiser may not make any public announcement relating to the relationship established by this Agreement without the prior written consent of Company. Company and/or its parent company may make public announcements regarding the relationship established by this Agreement, which may include limited use of Advertiser marks or logos.

However, Advertiser may enter into other agreements with Company relating to other advertising campaigns, which campaigns shall be governed by such other agreements. Advertiser has not relied upon any statements or promises in entering into this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein, and any conflicting or additional terms contained in any other documents (e.g., an IO’s reference to other terms and conditions) are void. Company may modify these Terms by posting the revised Terms to its website.

Traffic Quality Statement

Our management team has operated in the online search market since 1996, witnessing firsthand the evolution of online advertising. Specifically, over time, advertiser preference to a large degree has evolved from the impression-based or Cost Per Thousand (CPM) advertising model to the performance-based or Pay-Per-Click (PPC) model.  This evolution has been triggered by a demand for increased returns on the dollars spent on advertising.  People and entities advertising online desire users who will buy products and services to click on their ads.  We understand that in the highly competitive world of online advertising, those companies delivering the right blend of quality traffic, at the right prices, will be the most successful.

For those who are new to advertising online, here are some basic elements of PPC advertising:

First and foremost, not all clicks are created equal.  By that, we mean that every click on your advertisements will not convert, or lead to a sale.  There are many reasons that user-generated clicks fail to convert to sales, including the following:  (1) The user who clicks on your advertisement may be gathering information, but may not be ready to buy anything.  (2) The user may find your product pricing or Web site performance lacking in some respect. (3) The user who clicks on your advertisement may do so by accident or may be looking for another product.

The reasons for a non-converting click are varied, and it can be difficult to determine a user’s intent.  It is important for you to understand, however, as per the preceding examples, that when clicks don’t convert into transactions, it is not necessarily a function of low-quality traffic.

Secondly, our advertising service is highly automated.  You sign up for an account with us, you select keywords that are relevant to your products, and you set the prices that you are willing to pay for each click on your advertisement.  These advertisements are then put into our system and delivered across both our network of owned and operated Web sites and the Web sites of entities with whom we have partnered.  This is all accomplished in a highly automated fashion.  We do not deploy a large number of employees to pre-screen each advertiser, each advertisement or paid listing, each Web page where your advertisements appear, or research every click that a user makes on your advertisement.  Our highly-automated system sends out thousands of constantly changing advertisements 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Why does this matter to you?  The same technology we deploy that allows you to both create an advertisement and have that advertisement distributed across the Web in an extremely short time period can be vulnerable to activities that compromise traffic quality.  We have established real-time automated monitoring of our traffic base that assists us in reviewing various quality measures, and we are continually working to optimize our monitoring processes.  We also monitor these tools and processes, and watch for low-quality traffic that is not caught by our automated tools. Despite these traffic-quality monitoring efforts, there are those people, who we refer to as ‘bad actors’, who look for ways to circumvent our monitoring and controls.  As you might suspect, these same bad actors look to exploit the controls in a variety of places online, and anyone who tells you that they have foolproof systems to combat them is not telling you the truth.  The truth is that we are constantly working to limit the ability of bad actors to create low-quality clicks.

Lastly, ‘click fraud’ impacts the entire online advertising industry.  This has existed as long as advertising online has existed.  There are two primary methods of generating invalid, fraudulent clicks: manual clicking (by humans) and automated clicking (by software).  A commonly discussed example of manual ‘click fraud’ is when a competitor clicks on advertisements in an effort to drain a marketing budget.  A related example of automated ‘click fraud’ is where a competitor finds a way to create a software program that automatically clicks on the advertisement of a competitor.  Each click under either scenario is clearly a low-quality click.  There are other types of low-quality clicks that are sometimes categorized as "click fraud", such as search engine spiders.  These low-quality clicks may be caused by link-checking software or search engine robots clicking on advertisements as they crawl Web pages and run their routines that are typically designed to improve the speed of search.

How do we combat these types of ‘click fraud’?  We use a variety of methods to identify fraudulent clicks, including looking for patterns in the originating computer, requested ad, browser type, timing, conversion and other factors.  When we find clicks that appear to be fraudulent, we block them.  We have systems and processes in place that allow us to consistently remove fraudulent traffic from our network.  It is important for us to constantly look to improve those systems and processes, particularly as the bad actors evolve their methods of creating low-quality clicks.  Still, you should be aware that these and other forms of ‘click fraud’ exist and that neither we, nor to our knowledge, any of our competitors, offers any guarantee that its traffic is immune from low-quality clicks.

The Bottom Line

Today, we see at least three positive developments around the above-mentioned items.  One, as more people and companies gain experience with online advertising, they gain a better understanding of the relevant issues, including the issue of low-quality clicks.  Two, advertisers have ever-improving and more sophisticated tools at their disposal to determine the overall value of their pay-per-click campaigns, which means that advertisers are going to increasingly pay a price that is fair to them and reflective of the returns on their dollars spent with us.  Three, our company and others in our industry are building better tools to identify and reduce low-quality traffic.

If we do not take actions to protect you and other advertisers from low-quality clicks, we fundamentally understand that you and others will vote with your checkbooks and choose not to spend money with us.

In our ongoing effort to increase the amount of business that we do with you, we will continue to look for ways to deliver you traffic that converts at or above your target return on advertising spend levels.
