Range Internet Access Agreement
This Range Access Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by the subscriber (“you”) and Range (“RANGE”). This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which you agree to use RANGE Service and under which RANGE agrees to provide services to you. THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IMPOSE IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS ON YOU REGARDING YOUR USE OF RANGE’ SERVICE AND YOU SHOULD READ THEM CAREFULLY. You and RANGE agree to the following terms and conditions:

1. SCOPE OF SERVICE

1.1 RANGE will provide you with access to RANGE Online dial-up, or as applicable, RANGE DSL Internet Access Service (the “Service”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Service consists of: (a) access to the Internet, (b) a license to use Microsoft Internet Explorer, or Netscape Communicator/Netscape NavigatorTM, as applicable, (c) use of an electronic mail account or multiple accounts where available, (d) access to Usenet or other newsgroups, (e) optional Personal Web Space, (f) optional managed e-mail messaging with business DSL and (g) if applicable, DSL transport when combined with the Service.

1.2 Service may be temporarily unavailable or limited because of capacity limitations and may be temporarily interrupted or curtailed due to circuit or equipment failures, or due to modifications, upgrades, relocations, repairs, and similar activities necessary for the proper operation of the Service. RANGE may, at anytime, without notice or liability, restrict the use of the Service or limit its time of availability in order to perform maintenance activities and to maintain session control.

2. AUTHORIZED USER

2.1 You warrant that the information for your registration with the Service is correct and complete, and you agree to contact RANGE to update your information promptly. RANGE will provide you with a User Identification code (“UserID”) and password for each account purchased to enable your access to the Service.

2.2 You warrant that you are eighteen years of age or older and that you are responsible for all usage of the Service and any other services accessed through the Service on your account. You further agree that your use of the Service will only be from the United States.

2.3 You may not use more than one IP address for each log-on session. DSL customers may connect multiple computers/devices within a single location to their DSL line and access the Service through a single DSL account and a single IP address.

2.4 You may not resell the Service or engage in similar activities, commercial or non-commercial, which constitute resale, use the Service for high volume or commercial purposes, or as a dedicated or quasi-dedicated line, except as noted below for DSL customers, as determined by RANGE at its sole discretion. If your dial-up account is idle for fifteen (15) minutes, it will be subject to log-off automatically and without notice. An account session may be deemed to be idle if there appears to be no interactive, human generated data received from the remote user’s computer system within a prescribed amount of time. Automated data is not considered interactive or human generated; automated data includes but is not limited to data generated by an automatic re-dialer, script or other program that runs on a computer system for the purpose of avoiding inactivity disconnects, and the automated checking of e-mail or “pinging” the host to maintain a constant connection. RANGE reserves the right to audit connections electronically to enforce the above requirements. DSL customers use quasi-dedicated connections and may not be subject to disconnection due to inactivity.

2.5 RANGE will issue e-mail account names based upon availability. If you surrender your account by changing it, terminating your account, or because your account is terminated for cause, RANGE shall not be obligated to reserve your e-mail account name or to receive or forward e-mails addressed to that account.

3. TERM AND TERMINATION

3.1 This Agreement goes into effect upon completion of your order and shall continue, subject to the terms of this Section 3, until terminated by either party as permitted by this Agreement. Order completion occurs upon your submission of an order for service. Billing for your Service will automatically begin upon registration of your account and partial months service will be pro-rated based upon the date of completion. Registration may be accomplished either by you or by RANGE.

3.2 Termination Provision Applicable to Month-to-Month DSL and Dial-Up Customers. Either party may terminate this Agreement without cause by giving notice to the other in accordance with the notice provision set forth at Paragraph 14.5 below. Termination by you will be effective immediately upon your notice to RANGE and is subject to your payment of the remaining balance of the charges applicable to your Service for the month in which termination occurs. Activation or set-up fees paid at the initiation of your DSL Service are not refundable.

3.3 Termination Provision Applicable to Customers with Contractual Service Commitments for an Annual Period. The term of service for customers with an annual service commitment shall be for twelve (12) consecutive months beginning with the date of registration (the “Initial Term”), and continuing thereafter on a month-to-month basis until terminated by either party as permitted by this Agreement. In the event you terminate your Service before completing the initial term, then without limitation to any other remedy RANGE may have, you agree to pay RANGE upon discontinuance of the Service a termination fee equal to the sum of the remainder of the months in the initial term. Activation or set-up fees paid at the initiation of your Service are not refundable. If you terminate your service at any time after the Initial Term you will be responsible for the balance of charges for the month in which you give notice to RANGE. Customers with a twelve (12) month service commitment who change their Service level or location may be subject to additional charges and/or a new twelve (12) month commitment.

3.4 Termination Provision Applicable to DSL Customers. RANGE DSL Service uses telephone connections provided by Range, and in some areas, Centurylink. Accordingly, if you change your local telephone company, or your telephone service is disconnected for any reason, RANGE will be unable to continue DSL Service and will terminate your account and you will be responsible for associated termination and reconnection fees. Voice telephone line monthly service and installation charges are not included in the offered DSL packages; these charges are itemized separately on your telephone bill.

3.5 All obligations of the parties under this Agreement which, by their nature, would continue beyond the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement, including by way of illustration and not limitation those clauses relating to Limitation of Liability and Remedies (Section 12) and Indemnification (Section 13), shall survive such termination, cancellation or expiration.

3.6 If, in the sole discretion of RANGE: (a) you are in breach of any of the terms of this Agreement (including all policies regarding abuse and acceptable use of the Service), (b) your use of the Service is disruptive or causes a malfunction of the Service, or (c) RANGE receives an order from a court of competent jurisdiction to terminate your service, then RANGE may terminate or suspend your Service immediately without notice. For termination in accordance with this Section 3.6, you shall be liable for the applicable fees and/or Equipment charges set forth in Sections 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4(depending on which fees or charges are applicable). The foregoing notwithstanding, RANGE reserves the right to pursue any and all legal and equitable claims against you pertaining to your use or misuse of the Service. RANGE, in its sole discretion, may refuse to accept your application for renewal or re-subscription following a termination or suspension of your use of the Service.

3.7 In the event there is a ruling, regulation, or order issued by a judicial, legislative or regulatory body causing RANGE to believe that this Agreement may be in conflict with such rules, regulations, and orders, RANGE may terminate this Agreement immediately without notice.

3.8 You agree that if your Service is terminated for any reason, RANGE has the right to delete all data, files and other information stored in or for your account.

4. REVISIONS

4.1 You agree that RANGE may revise the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including any of the policies which may be applicable to your use of the Service) by posting such revisions at the RANGE portal page. You agree to review the portal page periodically to be aware of and review any such revisions. Increases to pricing shall be effective thirty (30) days after posting; decreases in pricing shall become effective immediately after posting; and revisions to any other terms and conditions shall be effective seven (7) days after posting. By continuing to use the Service after revisions are in effect, you accept the revisions and agree to abide by them.

5. MANAGEMENT OF YOUR DATA

You understand that DSL bandwidth is provided on a per line basis, and that the speed and bandwidth available to each computer or device connected to the network will vary depending upon the number and types of computers or devices using the Service and the type of use (e.g., streaming media or downloading larger files, etc.).

5.2 You are responsible for management of your information, including but not limited to back-up and restoration of data, erasing data from disk space you control and changing data on your router.

6.6 If any portion of your bill is not paid by the due date, RANGE may charge you a late fee on unpaid balances and may also terminate your Service without notice. The late fee will be the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5 %) per month, or the highest rate permitted by law.

RANGE ANTI-SPAM / ANTI-VIRUS PROTECTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. SERVICE AGREEMENT

1.1 This RANGE Anti-Spam / Anti-Virus Protection Terms and Conditions Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by the subscriber (“you”) and Range (“RANGE”). By using, the Anti-Spam / Anti-Virus Protection service (“Service”) you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions herein. You agree to allow Range to process incoming e-mail messages against known SPAM (defined as un-requested, unsolicited e-mail messages from entities that you have no business or personal relationship with) filter rules that are implemented automatically on inbound e-mail accounts that are enrolled in the Service in order to determine if the messages are unsolicited (SPAM).

2. SCOPE OF SERVICE

2.1 The processing of e-mail messages is by computer-automated systems. Portions of the Service may be provided to RANGE by third-party vendor(s), over which RANGE exercises no control. Range warrants that the Service is being provided by automated computer processing and that NO employee, affiliate, or agent of RANGE is reading your or other subscribers e-mail messages. The processing required to provide this Service is limited solely to the determination as to whether an e-mail message should be considered and treated as SPAM. The Service does not archive, store, or otherwise collect any e-mail messages or portions thereof, except as outlined herein.

2.2 Range reserves the right to change the method of electronic processing and filtering used to provide this Service without prior notice to you. RANGE further reserves the right to disable the Service temporarily, without notice, to prevent detrimental service degradation to you and other RANGE subscribers.

2.3 By agreeing to use the Service you acknowledge that the Service is provided on a “Best Effort” basis and agree that no SPAM / VIRUS filtering service or technology is 100% effective. You understand that you may continue to receive unsolicited messages, despite the Anti-Spam / Anti-Virus Protection Service being enabled. E-mail messages that have been determined to be SPAM will be sidelined in the Greymail e-mailbox that is provided as part of this Service. E-mail messages determined to be SPAM will be held in a Greymail e-mailbox for fourteen (14) days before being deleted. Access to your Greymail e-mailbox is provided solely through the web interface (“webmail”) provided to you as part of the e-mail service. RANGE acknowledges that from time to time legitimate e-mail messages that are not SPAM may be flagged by the Service and placed in your Greymail e-mailbox. As such, you are highly encouraged to review the content of your Greymail e-mailbox on an interval more frequent than fourteen (14) days. RANGE is not responsible for e-mail that is lost or deleted as a result of being flagged and placed in your Greymail account and not retrieved. You understand that it is strictly your responsibility to check the contents of your Greymail e-mailbox in a timely manner. RANGE is not responsible or liable for consequent actions arising from the deletion of legitimate e-mail placed in your Greymail e-mailbox and not retrieved.
