the Insertion Order ("Order") hereto, and its specified Advertising Agency, if

of an ad banner(s) and/or "Text" Link Statement(s) (collectively "Ad Banner")
linked to Advertiser's WWW site ("Link"). Each occurrence of the display of the
Ad Banner on the Infoseek Service is referred to herein as an "Impression."
Impressions shall be displayed in the quantity and for the duration indicated on
the Order attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof. Any requests
by Advertiser for changes to and/or cancellation of any Order must be made in
writing by the 15th day of the prior calendar month. If the Advertiser cancels
the Order, in whole or in part, additional short rate charges may be due and
payable. All Orders are subject to the terms and provisions of Infoseek then-
current rate card. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice.

time. All Orders are subject to acceptance by Infoseek. "Infoseek Service" may

successor service thereto.

for display to users, that it holds the necessary rights to permit the use of Ad
Banners by Infoseek for the purpose of this Agreement; and that the use,

DAMAGES. Infoseek's liability for any act, error or omission, regardless of

Advertiser liable for such monies as are due and payable to Infoseek. Infoseek
assumes no liability for any omission or delay of any Impression and/or any Ad
Banner. No conditions other than those specified in this Agreement shall be
