This Agreement explains our obligations to you, and your obligations to us in relation
to the Logicblock service(s) you purchase. By purchasing or otherwise applying
for Logicblock service(s), you agree to establish an account with us for
such services. When you use your account or permit someone else to use your account

or to modify or cancel your Logicblock service(s) (even if we were not notified
of such authorization), this Agreement as amended covers any such service or actions.
Additionally, you agree that each person listed in your account information as being
associated with your account for any services provided to you (including, but not
limited to, domain name registration services) is your agent with full authority
to act on your behalf with respect to such services in accordance with the permissions
granted, and that the Primary Contact and Account Administrative Contact for your
account shall have the authority, without limitation, to terminate, transfer (where
transfer is permitted by the Agreement), or modify such services or your account
information, or purchase additional services.
Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, you agree that if you
list, directly or by default, Logicblock as a contact for your account and/or
any of the services in your account, we have the right, without notice, to remove
our name and/or information from any such account or service and to replace the
same with the name and/or information provided by you for any other contact associated
with that account or service.

IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING BUNDLED SERVICES: If you purchase Logicblock
services that are sold together as a "bundled" package (e.g., you select an E-Commerce & Web Design package that includes both a E-Commerce Solution and a Logicblock Web

Services, Logicblock shall have the right, during the term of this Agreement
and for a period of six (6) months thereafter to access Customer's location and
files to inspect Customer's or your agent's use of the E-Commerce Services, as well

Availability, Downtime and General Services. In addition to
the provisions in Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that
since the Internet is neither owned nor controlled by any one entity, Logicblock
makes no guarantees that any given user will be able to access the E-Commerce Services
at any given time. Logicblock shall not be liable to Customer for failure
of accessibility to the E-Commerce Services or any potential or actual losses that
Customer may suffer from Customer's inability to access or use the E-Commerce Services
or your customer's inability to access any websites that may be supported or hosted
by E-Commerce Services. Logicblock provides all E-Commerce Services and any
software related to those services to the Customer on an "as is" basis and does
not guarantee that the E-Commerce Services or any related software has no errors,
defects or bugs or will function properly. Customer agrees that Logicblock

Services or related software and any damage, injury or lost profits that may arise
from such malfunction or downtime. Logicblock makes no guarantee that the
E-Commerce Services that the Customer purchases will operate seamlessly and without
error with Customer's own hardware, software or other services (including third
party products) that Customer currently uses. Logicblock makes no guarantees
regarding system uptime, including but not limited to, the uptime for hosting a
Customer's store(s) on Logicblock or third party systems. From time to time,
and as may be necessary to maintain such systems and Logicblock hardware,
Logicblock reserves the right to take its servers and other hardware offline

Logicblock E-Commerce Services, including the hosting of a Customer's store,
may be dependant on third party services that Logicblock can not control.
Customer expressly agrees that the availability of those third party services may
impact Customer's E-Commerce Services and therefore does not hold Logicblock
liable for any actions of a third party that may adversely impact Customer's E-Commerce
Services. Any uptime calculation or percentage that is provided as a part of the
E-Commerce Services does not include routine maintenance, unexpected downtime caused
by network issues or third party vendors, and occurrences that are outside the control
of Logicblock, including but not limited to the Force Majeure occurrences
that are outlined in Section 27 of this Agreement.

Customer agrees with and shall abide by all Third Party Licensor terms
and conditions, if any. Such Third Party Licensor terms and conditions are available

the E-Commerce Services. In the event that Logicblock changes Third Party
Licensors, Logicblock may provide Customer with notification of changes in

E- MAIL SERVICES
- Description of Service. Logicblock is providing you with the capability of
sending and receiving electronic mail via the Internet. You must: (a) provide all
equipment, including a computer and modem, necessary to establish a connection to
the Internet; and (b) provide for your own connection to the Internet and pay any
telephone service fees associated with such connection. Logicblock has set
no fixed upper limit on the number of messages you may send or receive through the
e-mail service; however, Logicblock reserves the right to restrict the number
of recipients of any e-mail sent by you and retains the right, at Logicblock's
sole discretion, to restrict the volume of messages transmitted or received by you,
in order to maintain the quality of our services to other customers and to protect
our computer systems. We, in our sole discretion, will determine whether or not
your conduct is consistent with this Agreement and any Logicblock operating
rules or policies and may suspend or terminate your e-mail service if your conduct
is found to be inconsistent with this Agreement or such rules or policies. The e-mail
service is subject to scheduled (from 12:01am eastern United States time to 2:00
am eastern United States time every Saturday) and unscheduled outages that will
impact your ability to use the service. We will use commercially reasonable efforts
to restore the service after any unscheduled outages. Moreover, in order to receive
the e-mail service we (or our third party provider) must host your domain name record.
If you transfer your domain name record to a third party in conjunction with a live
web site, or for any other reason, or allow your domain name registration to expire,
you will no longer be able to use the e-mail service. We will not refund the fees
you paid for our e-mail service if you elect to transfer your domain name record
to a third party. You may not exceed the storage [megabytes] applicable to the particular
e-mail services purchased by you as specified on our Web site at the time of your
purchase (or as subsequently modified by us pursuant to this Agreement). If you
exceed the applicable storage limitations, Logicblock reserves the right,
in its sole discretion, to either (A) charge, and you agree to pay, an additional
fee as described on our Web site for each Megabyte of usage that exceeds the bandwidth
limitations set forth above, or (B) terminate or suspend your email services and
this Agreement. Additionally, you acknowledge and agree that we may delete any or
all messages in your "trash" folder at any time in our sole discretion.
- Catch-All Mailbox Service. Logicblock may make available to you the ability
to subscribe to our Catch-All Mailbox service. You acknowledge and agree that, in
the event you subscribe to the Catch-All Mailbox service, any electronic mail sent
to the e-mail box of any user of your Logicblock e-mail service (e.g., Person@Yourcompany.com)
will also be sent to the e-mail box set up for the Catch-All Mailbox service. You
further acknowledge and agree that in the event your Logicblock e-mail and
domain name services are terminated, any future registrant of your terminated domain
name that subscribes to the Catch-All Mailbox service may receive e-mails intended
for receipt by you or a former user of your e-mail service, and you agree that Logicblock
shall have no liability to you or any third party with respect thereto.
You are solely responsible for providing any and all necessary notifications regarding
termination of your Logicblock e-mail services, and you agree that Logicblock
shall have no liability to you or any third party with respect thereto.
- Billing for E-mail Service. Billing for annual e-mail services shall be by valid
credit card (acceptable to Logicblock) at the time of purchase. If you elect
to subscribe to monthly e-mail services, your monthly payments for the same will
be automatically charged to the credit card provided by you (and acceptable to Logicblock)
at the time of your purchase (with such payments being charged in advance
on a monthly basis) ("Monthly E-mail Service Fee"), and you hereby agree that Logicblock
is authorized to so charge your credit card. Logicblock, in its
sole discretion, shall determine the prices it will charge for the e-mail services,
and the terms and conditions applicable to the same, and Logicblock may,
upon providing thirty (30) days' notice to you, amend such pricing and/or terms
and conditions. If you do not agree with any such change(s), you may terminate this
Agreement or cancel your e-mail service subscription, as applicable, as provided
herein, within such thirty (30) day period; otherwise all such changes shall thereafter
be effective with respect to your account, and you agree that we are authorized
to charge your credit card for any new Monthly E-mail Service fee.
- Privacy. Logicblock will not monitor, edit or disclose the contents of your
private communications with third parties unless required to do so by law or in
the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the law or
comply with legal process served on Logicblock; (b) protect and defend the
rights or property of Logicblock; or (c) act under exigent circumstances
to protect the personal safety of our customers or the public. You acknowledge and
agree that Logicblock neither endorses the contents of any of your communications
nor assumes responsibility for such content, including but not limited to any threatening,
libelous, obscene, harassing or offensive material contained therein, or any infringement
of third party intellectual property rights arising therefrom or any crime facilitated
thereby. You acknowledge and agree that certain technical processing of e-mail messages
and their content may be required to: (a) send and receive messages; (b) conform
to connecting networks' technical requirements; (c) conform to the limitations of
the e-mail service; or (d) conform to other similar requirements.
- Customer Conduct. You agree to be bound by the applicable provisions of the Logicblock
Acceptable Use Policy, incorporated herein and made part of this Agreement
by reference, in connection with your use of the services described in this Schedule.
Logicblock's outsourcing contractors for the e-mail services, including,
but not limited to, SmarterTools, Inc. or their successors, shall
be intended third party beneficiaries of the e-mail service customer's obligations
under this Agreement and thus shall be entitled to enforce those obligations against
you as if a party to this Agreement.

- Description of the Certificate.
This Section sets forth the terms and conditions regarding your
application for a Certificate and, if Thawte and/or the RA accepts your Certificate Application, the terms and conditions regarding your use of the Certificate to be issued by Thawte to you as the "Subscriber" of that Certificate. A "Certificate" is a digitally signed message that contains an organization's public key and associates it with information Authenticated by Thawte or a Thawte-authorized entity. Certificates provided under this Subscriber Agreement are issued within the Thawte PKI.
The following applies to Thawte SSL Web Server, SSL Web Server Wildcard, and SGC SuperCert Certificates only:
The Certificate for which you have applied on behalf of your organization is a High Assurance Certificate within the Thawte PKI. High Assurance Certificates are issued to Devices to provide authentication; message, software, and content integrity; and confidentiality encryption. High Assurance Certificates provide assurances of the identity of the Subscriber based on a confirmation that the Subscriber organization does in fact exist, that the organization has authorized the Certificate Application, and that the person submitting the Certificate Application on behalf of the Subscriber was authorized to do so. The Certificate also provides assurances that the Subscriber is entitled to use the domain name listed in the Certificate Application, if a domain name is listed in such Certificate Application.
This Section applies to Thawte SSL123 Certificates only:
The Certificate for which you have applied on behalf of your organization is a Medium Assurance Certificate within the Thawte PKI. Medium Assurance Certificates are issued to Devices to provide validation of the domain (unless issued to an Intranet Server); message, software, and content integrity; and confidentiality encryption. Furthermore, Medium Assurance Certificates provide assurances of the validity of the domain (unless issued to an Intranet Server) and that the domain administrator has authorized the Certificate Application. No
organization authentication is performed on the owner of the domain.
- Processing the Certificate Application & Re-Issues.
Upon Thawte's receipt of the necessary payment and upon completion of Authentication procedures required for the Certificate you have purchased, Thawte will process your Certificate Application, and Thawte will notify you whether your Certificate Application is approved or rejected. If your certificate Application is approved, Thawte will issue you a
Certificate for your use in accordance with this Subscriber Agreement. After you pick up or otherwise install your Certificate, you must review the information in it before using it and promptly notify Thawte of any errors. Upon receipt of such notice, Thawte may revoke your Certificate and issue you a corrected Certificate. Further, Thawte recognizes that, from time to time, you may need to re-issue your Certificate. Thawte shall re-issue your Certificate in accordance with its re-issue policy located in the Thawte CPS and at www.thawte.com/reissue.
- Use Restrictions.
You are prohibited from using your Certificate
(i) for or on behalf of any other organization;
(ii) to perform private or public key operations in connection with any Domain and/or organization name other than the one submitted by you on your Certificate Application;
(iii) on more than one physical server or Device at a time, unless you have purchased additional licenses that permit the use of a Certificate on multiple Devices ("Licensing Option");and
(iv) for use as control equipment in hazardous circumstances or for uses requiring fail-safe performance such as the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control systems, or weapons control systems, where failure could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe environmental damage. If you have selected the Licensing Option, you acknowledge and agree that:
(v) this option can result in increased security risks to your network and that Thawte expressly disclaims any liability for breaches of security that result from the distribution of a single key across multiple Devices; and
(vi) you may not use the Certificate on more than five (5) Devices.
THAWTE CONSIDERS THE UNLICENSED USE OF A CERTIFICATE ON A DEVICE THAT RESIDES ABOVE A SERVER OR SERVER FARM SOFTWARE PIRACY AND WILL PURSUE VIOLATORS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW. If you choose to display the Thawte Trusted Site Seal, you must install and display such Seal only in accordance with the Conditions of Use of the Thawte Trusted Site Seal located in the Repository.
- Revocation.
If you discover or have reason to believe there has been a Compromise of your private key or the activation data protecting such private key, or the information within the Certificate is incorrect or has changed, or if your organizational name and/or Domain registration has changed, you must immediately notify Thawte and request revocation of the Certificate and you must notify any person that may reasonably be expected by you to rely on or to provide services in support of the Certificate or a
digital signature verifiable with reference to the Certificate. Thawte retains the right to revoke your Certificate if, within forty-five (45) days of receiving an invoice from Thawte, you do not pay the invoice.
Thawte retains the right to revoke your Certificate at any time without notice if
(i) Thawte discovers that the information within your Certificate is no longer valid;
(ii) you fail to perform your obligations under the terms of this Subscriber Agreement; or
(iii) in Thawte's sole discretion, you have engaged in activities which Thawte determines are harmful to the Thawte PKI.
- Obligations Upon Revocation or Expiration.
Upon expiration or notice of revocation of your Certificate, you shall permanently remove your Certificate from the Device on which it is installed and shall not use it for any purpose thereafter and, if you have installed a Seal and have not purchased other Thawte services that would permit you to post the Seal, you shall remove such Seal from your Web site.

more services provided by a third party, Thawte may disclose your Certificate Application and enrollment information to these third party service providers and they may contact you directly regarding their services.
