TERMS OF USE

THESE TERMS OF USE AND THE USER AGREEMENT BETWEEN EASYLINK SERVICES INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION ("EASYLINK" or "WE") AND THE USER ("YOU" OR "MEMBER") DESCRIBES THE TERMS BY WHICH EASYLINK OFFERS YOU ACCESS TO THE SERVICE (COLLECTIVELY THE "TERMS"). BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE THEREAFTER, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY EACH OF THE TERMS. EASYLINK AND MEMBER MAY HEREINAFTER BE REFERRED TO COLLECTIVELY AS "PARTIES" AND INDIVIDUALLY AS A "PARTY."

1. Service.

EASYLINK provides (i) access and use of EASYLINK's online transaction processing and ancillary services through EASYLINK's web sites, www.enabletrading.com (the "Site") and (ii) for the receipt, processing and transmitting of data files between Members (together with the Site, the "Service"), to facilitate the purchase and sale of goods between manufacturers and retailers, and is solely for your internal use in accordance with these Terms. We may, in our sole discretion, add, delete, or change some or all the services included within the Service at any time. The Service is owned and operated by EASYLINK and is being provided to Members (as defined below) under these Terms and any operating rules, policies, and procedures that may be published from time to time on the Site by EASYLINK.

Without limiting the foregoing or expanding any of your rights hereunder, you agree that you will not republish, reproduce, or distribute any of the information available through the Site or any email or other communication by or between Members, EASYLINK, and/or any other Member, or make any use of any such information or the facilities of EASYLINK that would allow a third party to have access to or the benefits of the Service.

2. Eligibility for Membership.

The Service is available only to corporations and other business entities directly involved in the buying or selling of direct goods ("Products") between retailers and manufacturers (each a "Company") and their designated employee(s) as indicated by the Member (each, a "Designated Employee"), and each Designated Employee can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. If you do not qualify, please do not attempt to use the Service. The Company and each Designated Employee shall each be considered a Member under these Terms. A Designated Employee shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Company at all times. In the event that a Designated Employee no longer is an authorized representative of the Company (whether due to termination of employment or otherwise), the Company shall immediately notify EASYLINK, in writing, of the removal of such employee as the Designated Employee and the appointment of a new Designated Employee for the Company. Upon issuance of a reply notice by EASYLINK acknowledging the change in EASYLINK's authorization records, such former Designated Employee shall no longer be deemed to be a Member. EASYLINK may refuse to offer its Service to any individual or entity and may change its criteria for Membership, at any time, in its sole discretion.

3. Member Account, Password and Security.

EASYLINK will assign each Company its own unique customer identification ("Customer ID") and each Designated Employee his or her own unique employee identification ("Employee ID") and password (collectively "User Name"). Each Designated Employee is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of his or her own password, Employee ID, and the Customer ID of the Company. Furthermore, each Designated Employee is entirely responsible for any and all activities which occur under his or her Employee ID, the corresponding Customer ID, and Password, and the Company is entirely responsible for any and all activities of its employees, agents, and representatives, whether or not such employees, agents, and representatives are Designated Employees. Member agrees to immediately notify EASYLINK of any unauthorized use of the Service or a Member's account (including unauthorized use of a User Name or Password by any employee, agent, or representative of the Company who is not a Designated Employee) or any other breach of security known to Member, it being understood that the Designated Employee's knowledge shall be imputed to the Company. Unauthorized access to the Service, or to the telecommunications or computer facilities used to deliver the Service, is a breach of these Terms and is a violation of law.

Member acknowledges that it will be providing (1) certain current, complete, and accurate information about Member; and (2) maintain and update such registration information ("Registration Data") as required to keep such information current, complete and accurate. Member hereby grants EASYLINK a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicenseable right to exercise any rights it has in the Registration Data and otherwise to make use of the Registration Data (including publishing, disseminating, broadcasting, or selling such information), in any media now known or not currently known, subject, however, to the limitations set forth in the Privacy Policy (as defined below). Member hereby specifically authorizes EASYLINK and its affiliates to use such information in the Registration Data and member profile as a part of the aggregated transaction information that EASYLINK publishes at its sole discretion on the Site or in any other medium.

4. Access to the Site.

4.1  Equipment and Connections.  In order to participate in the Service, Member must: (1) provide all equipment, including a computer, software and modem, necessary to establish a connection to the Internet; (2) provide for Member's own access to the Internet; and (3) pay any telephone or other service fees associated with such access to the Internet.
4.2   Availability of the Site and Services.    The Site and Service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The amended Terms shall automatically become effective ten (10) days after they are initially posted on the Site. These Terms may not otherwise be amended, except in a writing signed by both Parties. Member's continued use of the Service after the expiration of the ten (10) day period constitutes Member's affirmative: (a) acknowledgment of these Terms and its modifications; and (b) agreement to abide and be bound by these Terms, as amended.

6. Modifications to Service.

EASYLINK reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Service, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice to Member, and is not obligated to support or update the Service. Member acknowledges and agrees that EASYLINK shall not be liable to Member or any third party in the event that EASYLINK exercises its right to modify or discontinue the Service.

7. EASYLINK is Only a Forum.

EASYLINK provides a forum for matching buyers and sellers of Products. EASYLINK serves to assist in the consummation of transactions between buyers and sellers of Products by providing a network that will process electronic transactions between buyers and sellers.

As a result of EASYLINK's limited role, it has no control over the quality, safety or legality of the Products being sold, the truthfulness, accuracy or completeness of any posting or transmission, or the terms and conditions of any transaction between the parties. Because EASYLINK does not review the substance of any transmission on or through the Site, Member must be careful in dealing with other Members to avoid fraud and to recognize the possibility that other Members' information may, despite the prohibitions set forth in these Terms, be harmful, inaccurate or deceptive.

Because EASYLINK is not involved in Member-to-Member dealings, except to the limited extent noted above, Member agrees, in connection with any use of the Service: (1) to release EASYLINK (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) from any and all claims, demands and damages, of any type and nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with use of the Service by such Member (including any disputes with other Members using the Service, and disputes arising from representations or omissions by any Member); and (2) to attempt to settle any disputes with such other Member directly.

8. Terms and Conditions between Members.

These Terms govern your use of the Site and the Service. However, the specific terms and conditions of a Member's purchase of Products (such as pricing, warranties from sellers, delivery, etc.) through the Service are established between Members.

EASYLINK does not set nor endorse the price, contract terms, quality, safety, conformance or legality of the products offered for sale, the ability of sellers to sell products or the ability of buyers to buy Products. We cannot and do not control whether sellers will complete the sale of products they offer. We are not responsible with respect to payment or collection for orders made on the Site.

WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE QUALITY, IDENTITY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY SELLER AND WHETHER YOU SHOULD DO BUSINESS WITH SUCH SELLER.

SELLERS WILL POST INFORMATION RELATING TO PRODUCTS ON THE SITE. HOWEVER, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE ACCURACY OF INFORMATIION OF INVENTORY POSTINGS MADE ON THE SITE, AND WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCORRECT POSTINGS OF ANY SELLER'S INFORMATION OR INVENTORY.
