Online, Inc. ("AOL"), a Delaware corporation, with its principal offices at
00000 XXX Xxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, on the one hand, and Homestore, Inc.
("HS"), a Delaware corporation, with offices at 00000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxx,

INTRODUCTION
AOL, RealSelect, Inc. and Xxxxxxxxx.xxx, Inc. (f/n/a NetSelect, Inc.)
entered into an interactive marketing relationship pursuant to that certain
Second Amended and Restated Interactive Marketing Agreement, effective as of
April 8, 1999 and executed by such parties in June, 1999 and that certain
Distribution Agreement, effective as of April 8, 1999 and executed by such
parties in June, 1999, each of which were terminated by the Parties pursuant to
the terms of the Existing Agreement, and that certain Distribution Agreement
effective as of April 25, 2000 (the "EXISTING AGREEMENT"). RealSelect, Inc. and
Xxxxxxxxx.xxx, Inc. are each predecessors-in-interest to HS. AOL and HS each
desire to expand and modify their existing relationship by terminating the
Existing Agreement and entering into a new mutually beneficial interactive
marketing relationship in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this
Agreement shall be as defined on Exhibit B, attached hereto and made a part
hereof.
TERMS
1. DISTRIBUTION; PROGRAMMING
1.1 PROMOTIONS ON HOME CHANNEL. AOL shall provide HS with the
Promotions set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a
part hereof (the "CARRIAGE PLAN"), including Promotions in a
home-and-real-estate-related channel or equivalent on the AOL
Service, Xxxxxxxx.xxx, CompuServe and a
home-and-real-estate-related screen on Digital City
(collectively the "HOME CHANNEL"), as depicted for the AOL
Service in the screen shots attached hereto as Exhibit H,
which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1.3.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, HS acknowledges that the screen
shots represent a new design for the Home Channel which has
not yet been built and which will not be fully launched until
approximately [*] (the "LAUNCH DATE"). In the event the new
Home Channel (or portions thereof) launches prior to the
Launch Date, the Carriage Plan shall be adjusted to reflect
the earlier availability of new Promotions (and the
discontinuation of old Promotions); provided, however, the
number of integrated Impressions and media Impressions
provided on the adjusted Carriage Plan shall be at least the
number of Impressions in the Integrated Placement Commitment
and Media Placement Commitment, respectively. In the event the
new Home Channel (or portions thereof)
---------------
[*] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY
WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO
THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
CONFIDENTIAL
launches after the Launch Date, the Carriage Plan shall be
adjusted to reflect the later availability of new Promotions
(and the continuation of old Promotions) and the Term shall be
extended (without additional payments by HS) by one day for
each day past the Launch Date that the new Home Channel fully
launches; provided that any delay in the Launch Date (or
portion thereof) which is caused by actions or omissions by
HS, or by factors outside the reasonable control of AOL, shall
not lead to an extension of the Term. The Promotions shall
link directly to the Customized Sites and/or Customized
Programming. Except to the extent expressly described herein,
the exact form, placement and nature of the Promotions shall
be determined by AOL in its reasonable editorial discretion.
Any changes to the Carriage Plan shall be made in writing and
signed by both Parties prior to implementation of such
changes.
1.2 IMPRESSIONS COMMITMENT. During the Term, AOL shall deliver at
least the number of Impressions set forth in the Carriage
Plan, from placement of HS Presences on the AOL Network, which
Impressions shall be integrated Impressions as set forth on
Exhibit A-1 (the "INTEGRATED PLACEMENT COMMITMENT") and media
Impressions as set forth on Exhibit A-2 (the "MEDIA PLACEMENT
Commitment"), in each case on the line entitled Integrated
Placement Commitment and Media Placement Commitment,
respectively, (or on the line entitled "Grand Total" in the
column entitled "Totals" on any replacement Carriage Plan
agreed to in writing by the Parties, if so designated). AOL
shall not be obligated to provide more Impressions than
provided for in the Carriage Plan.
1.2.1 In the event there is (or will be in AOL's reasonable
judgment) a shortfall in the Integrated Placement
Commitment as of the end of the Term (a "TERM
INTEGRATION SHORTFALL"), AOL shall provide HS, as its
sole remedy, at AOL' s option with either (a) an
extension of the Term of this Agreement until the
Term Integration Shortfall is remedied, or (b) a
refund calculated by multiplying the Term Integration
Shortfall by [*], or (c) some combination thereof. In
the event this Agreement is extended pursuant to this
Section 1.2.1, AOL shall not be required to deliver
any media Impressions if AOL met or exceeded the
Media Placement Commitment during the Term. In the
event there is (or will be in AOL's reasonable
judgment) a shortfall in the Media Placement
Commitment as of the end of the Term (a "TERM MEDIA
SHORTFALL"), AOL shall provide HS, as its sole
remedy, at AOL's option with either (a) Impressions
on the AOL Network which have a comparable overall
total value calculated based on the following
makegood ratios: [*] for [*] Impressions; [*] for [*]
Impressions; [*] for [*] Impressions; [*] for [*]
Impressions; [*] for [*] Impressions; and [*] for [*]
Impressions, so that a [*] Impression is assigned a
value of [*] times as much as a [*] impression (for
example, in the event there was a shortfall of 100
Impressions in [*] and AOL wished to makegood with
[*] Impressions, then AOL would multiply the number
of [*] Impressions (in this case 100 Impressions) by
[*] to calculate [*] Impression equivalent (in this
example, the equivalent would be [*] Impressions), or
(b) a refund of the value of the Term Media Shortfall
(calculated by multiplying the Term Media Shortfall
by [*]) , or (c) some combination thereof.

THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
2 CONFIDENTIAL
1.2.2 The Impressions listed on each line item on the
Carriage Plan are for the purposes of calculating
refund values pursuant to Sections 1.2.1 and 1.4.1
only and do not represent guarantees or commitments
of Impressions to individual line items. Similarly,
Impressions listed in Year 1 and Year 2 columns in
any replacement Carriage Plan agreed to in writing by
the Parties (or any draft plan exchanged by the
parties at any time) do not represent annual
guarantees or commitments. AOL shall have no
obligation or responsibility with respect to
Impression delivery except to deliver the number of
Impressions specified on the lines entitled
Integrated Placement Commitment and Media Placement
Commitment (or on the line entitled "Grand Total" in
the column entitled "Totals" on any replacement
Carriage Plan agreed to in writing by the Parties, if
so designated) on each of Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit
A-2, or to remedy the failure to do so under Section
1.2 above. The foregoing notwithstanding, AOL shall
not be entitled to satisfy its Integrated Placement
Commitment by delivering more MapQuest Impressions
than the [*] Impressions shown on the Carriage Plan
unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties.
1.3 REDESIGNS AND MAKEGOODS. AOL reserves the right to redesign or
modify the organization, structure, "look and feel,"
navigation and other elements of the AOL Network at any time.
In the event such modifications materially and adversely
affect any specific Promotion, or if AOL is unable to deliver
any particular Promotion for any other reason, AOL will
provide HS as soon as commercially reasonable, as its sole
remedy, a comparable promotional placement in a successor area
of the portion of the AOL Network that has been redesigned or
replaced, or other area that is substantially similar to the
redesigned or replaced area; provided, however, that in the
event such redesign or modification results in a substantial
redesign of the Home Channel, such redesigned or replaced Home
Channel is promoted as any other top level channel on the AOL
Service such as Careers, Travel and Health. AOL shall promptly
provide written notice to HS of (i) the proposed comparable or
alternative promotional placement(s), and (ii) the Promotion
or Promotions for which the proposed comparable promotional
placement is a substitute. Within thirty (30) days of AOL's
written notice, HS shall provide written notice to AOL of
either (i) its acceptance of the proposed promotional
placement as a substitute Promotion or (ii) its refusal of the
proposed comparable promotional placement, together with a
written statement of the reasons HS believes the proposed
placement is not a comparable promotional placement. HS's
failure to so respond within thirty (30) days shall be deemed
acceptance. HS's approval of a proposed comparable placement
shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event will any
notice requirement, acceptance or rejection provided pursuant
to this Section 1.3 prohibit AOL from implementing any
proposed redesign or modification. In the event that HS
refuses a proposed comparable promotional placement offered by
AOL pursuant to this Section 1.3, HS and AOL shall attempt, in
good faith, to resolve the matter informally within fifteen
(15) days. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve the
matter informally, either Party may commence the arbitration
provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such
dispute that is not presented to the Management Committee and,
if necessary, arbitration as provided in Section VII of
Exhibit D for final and binding resolution within ninety (90)
days of AOL's written notice of the proposed promotional
placement shall be waived by HS.
1.4 PROGRAMMING AND CONTENT.
1.4.1 CONTENT. The Promotions shall link only to the
Customized Programming or Customized Sites and shall
promote only the HS Services. The Customized Sites
and Customized Programming shall contain the Content
described on the
---------------
[*] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY
WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO
THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
3 CONFIDENTIAL
Programming Plan, attached hereto as Exhibit C (the
"PROGRAMMING PLAN"), as such Programming Plan may be
updated from time to time by mutual agreement of the
Parties. HS shall have the right to include any of
its Content within the HS Services on the Customized
Sites and Customized Programming consistent with this
Agreement. Each Promotion shall link to a portion of
the Customized Programming or Customized Sites which
is contextually relevant to the page on which the
Promotion appears and the Content of the Promotion.
The inclusion of any Content that is not within the
HS Services shall be subject to AOL's prior written
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. HS shall provide Content that will meet the
objectives set forth in the Programming Plan, and, in
AOL's reasonable editorial discretion, such Content
shall be accurate, well-organized and professional
and shall comply with (i) AOL's technical
specifications set forth in Exhibit F, attached
hereto and made a part hereof, and any additional or
modified specifications made available to HS that AOL
deems necessary and appropriate from time to time
during the Term so long as AOL consistently requires
compliance with such standards from similarly
situated third parties, (ii) the terms of this
Agreement, and (iii) AOL's then-generally acceptable
policies relating to advertising and promotions (as
consistently applied to similarly situated third
parties and as have been made available to HS ).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, HS shall ensure that any Content provided
by HS pursuant to this Agreement (including, without
limitation, the Promotions, the Customized Site, and
the Customized Programming) does not directly
promote, advertise, market or distribute the
products, services or content of any other
Interactive Service, and that neither the Promotions
nor the Customized Programming directly promotes,
advertises, markets or distributes any products or
services in any category in which AOL has an
exclusive relationship as identified on Exhibit I,
attached hereto and made a part hereof, as such list
may be amended by AOL from time to time; provided AOL
shall not amend Exhibit I to include any of the HS
Exclusive Services. In the event that the addition by
AOL of a category to Exhibit I requires HS to remove
an integrated element of Content from the Customized
Programming, the line item on the Carriage Plan
representing such Content, if any, shall be deemed
deleted from the Carriage Plan, AOL shall refund to
HS the value of the undelivered Impressions to such
line item(s) (calculated based on the applicable
value for the Impressions as set forth in Section 1.2
for Integrated Placements and Media Placements), and
the overall Integrated Placement Commitment and/or
Media Placement Commitment, as applicable, shall be
reduced by the number of Impressions for which a
refund was provided. In the event that the removal of
an integrated element of Content from the Customized
Programming requires an alteration to the design of
the Customized Programming, AOL shall discuss the
redesign of the particular portion of the Home
Channel affected by such alteration with HS. HS shall
host the following screens containing Customized
Programming until such time as AOL may elect to host
such screens: [*].
1.4.2 HS CONTENT AND SITE MANAGEMENT OBLIGATIONS. HS shall
design, create, edit, manage, review, update (as
reasonably determined by HS and no less frequently
than its Generally Available Sites are updated), and
maintain the Customized Sites, Customized Programming
and other Licensed Content in a timely and
professional manner and in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to keep the Licensed Content
current, accurate and well-organized at all times
during the Term. HS shall be responsible for any
hosting or communication costs associated with the
---------------
[*] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY
WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO
THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
4 CONFIDENTIAL
Customized Sites and Customized Programming,
including, without limitation, the costs associated
with AOL's direct cost of any agreed-upon direct
connections between the AOL Network and the
Customized Sites or Customized Programming. The
Customized Programming shall have AOL Look and Feel,
consistent with the examples set forth in Exhibit H,
attached hereto, in all material respects.
AOL shall be entitled to revise the AOL Look and Feel
in its sole discretion; provided that, in the event
that AOL substantially changes the AOL Look and Feel
more than once every six (6) months during the Term,
AOL shall bear the costs and expenses associated with
any alterations or conversions to be made to the
Customized Programming for any additional substantial
changes to the AOL Look and Feel during the Term.
1.4.3 EQUALITY OF CONTENT. Subject to the other terms and
conditions of this Agreement, HS shall ensure that
the Licensed Content within the Customized Sites and
Customized Programming is substantially the same as
the Content then available on the comparable
Generally Available Sites in all material respects,
including without limitation, quality, breadth,
depth, timeliness, functionality, features, prices of
products and services and terms and conditions,
unless otherwise required by this Agreement (for
example, if Content, tools or functionality that HS
would be required to include to comply with this
sentence violates another provision of this
Agreement, HS shall not provide such Content, tools
or functionality on the Customized Sites or in the
Customized Programming). In the event HS enters into
an agreement to provide Content relevant to the HS
Services and not available on the Generally Available
Sites ("CUSTOM CONTENT") to any third party, HS shall
provide AOL the opportunity to obtain the Custom
Content on substantially the same terms as the third
party (including, without limitation, delivery of the
Custom Content to AOL at the same time the Custom
Content is delivered to the third party).
1.5 REGISTRATION. AOL Users shall not be subject to a
registration process (or any similar process) in
order to access and use the Customized Programming or
the Customized Sites unless otherwise mutually
agreed; provided, however, that AOL Users may be
subject to a registration process in order to use a
specialized tool or for specific opt-in features and
functionality of the Customized Sites. In the event
that registration is required to access and use the
Customized Sites, any registration or similar process
on the Customized Sites shall be no more burdensome
than any other registration or similar process on the
corresponding Generally Available Site. During the
Term and for the two (2) year period after the
expiration or termination thereof, HS shall allow AOL
Users to access and use a Generally Available Site on
terms and conditions no less favorable than the terms
and conditions generally available to other similarly
situated users of such Generally Available Site.
1.6 MEMBER BENEFITS. HS will promote through the
Customized Sites any special or promotional offers
made available by or on behalf of HS through any
Generally Available Site. The Parties shall work
together in good faith to promote, through the
Customized Sites and the AOL Network, special Content
exclusively available to AOL Users.
1.7 COMPLIANCE. In the event HS provides Content for the
Customized Programming and the Customized Sites that
fails to materially comply with Sections 1.4, 1.5,
2.5.1, 4.1, 4.2(a), 4.2(b), 4.2(c), or 4.3 of this
Agreement (a "MATERIAL NON-COMPLIANCE EVENT"), AOL
shall: (a) give email notice to HS of its
non-compliance specifying the nature of the Material
Non-Compliance Event and the location of the
non-complying Content (if applicable and to the
extent of AOL's knowledge of the location(s)); and
(b) have the
5 CONFIDENTIAL
immediate right (in addition to any other remedies
available to AOL hereunder) to (i) decrease the
promotion it provides to HS hereunder solely on
screens which include or provide a link to such
non-complying Content and/or (ii) remove carriage of
the Customized Programming and/or other Licensed
Content from the AOL Properties that are implicated
by such non-complying Content; in each case, until
such time as HS corrects its non-compliance. If HS
does not cure its non-compliance during a [*] ([*])
day period (or a [*] ([*]) day period in the event
that the non-compliance results from a modification
to technical requirements and cannot reasonably be
cured in [*] days) beginning the date on which AOL
gives HS notice of its non-compliance as provided in
subsection (a) hereof, AOL shall be relieved during
the period of such HS noncompliance only of the
proportionate amount of any promotional commitment
made to HS by AOL hereunder in accordance with any
decrease, cessation or removal of HS Content or
Promotions pursuant to the foregoing sentence.
2. CROSS-PROMOTION
2.1 COOPERATION. Each Party shall cooperate with and reasonably
assist the other Party in supplying material for marketing and
promotional activities.
2.2 HS PROMOTION OF CUSTOMIZED SITES AND AOL.
2.2.1 OFFLINE PROMOTION. As provided in Exhibit G, in its
offline promotions HS will promote AOL and will
promote the availability of the Customized Sites
through the AOL Network.
2.2.2 ONLINE PROMOTION. In the event that HS allows a third
party Interactive Service to purchase advertising for
placement on the Generally Available Sites as part of
a cooperative transaction whereby the parties thereto
trade products or services rather than cash, or as
part of an affiliate or bounty program, then HS will
provide AOL with the opportunity to purchase
comparable online promotion for the remaining Term of
this Agreement and on other terms and conditions that
are no less favorable than the proposed promotion
with the third party Interactive Service. HS shall
provide AOL with ten (10) days prior written notice
of its intent to enter into such transaction and
shall specify all material terms of such transaction
in the written notice (other than those terms which
HS is prohibited from disclosing under any
commercially reasonable nondisclosure agreement or
confidentiality provision that an Interactive Service
may have required prior to negotiating the
arrangements). In the event that AOL desires to
purchase the comparable promotions, AOL shall provide
HS written notice of its intent to participate within
five (5) days of HS' notice. Thereafter, the parties
will use their commercially reasonable good faith
efforts to enter into a definitive agreement for the
provision of such promotions. HS shall be free to
enter into an agreement with the third party on terms
no more favorable to the third party than those
contained in HS' notice. This section shall not apply
to those matters covered by Section 2.5.
2.3 AOL PROMOTION OF CUSTOMIZED SITES AND HS. At HS's request
during the Term, AOL shall discuss with HS opportunities to
include HS in AOL promotional materials to the extent AOL
includes any similarly situated partners in such materials.
The terms and
---------------

WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO
THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
6 CONFIDENTIAL
conditions of any such promotion shall be determined by the
Parties at the time of such promotion.
2.4 AOL PARTICIPATION IN MARKETING OR PROMOTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES.
In the event that HS enters into any transaction to promote or
market the products or services of any third party Interactive
Service, HS shall provide AOL with the opportunity to promote
or market the products or services of AOL in a comparable
manner for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement and on
other terms and conditions that are no less favorable than the
proposed promotion of the products and services of the third
party Interactive Service. HS shall provide AOL with notice
ten (10) days after entering into any such transaction and
shall specify all material terms of such transaction in the
written notice (other than those terms which HS is prohibited
from disclosing under any commercially reasonable
nondisclosure agreement or confidentiality provision that the
Interactive Service may have required). In the event that AOL
desires to acquire comparable promotion or marketing from HS,
AOL shall provide HS written notice of its intent to
participate within five (5) days of HS' notice. Thereafter the
parties will use their commercially reasonable good faith
efforts to enter into a definitive agreement for the provision
of such promotions. In no event shall Section 2.4 and Section
2.2.2 prohibit or limit HS from entering into a distribution
agreement or carriage agreement with an Interactive Service
pursuant to which HS provides its content to such service even
if as an ancillary part thereof HS promotes or markets the
services of such Interactive Service. This Section shall not
apply to matters covered by Section 2.5.
2.5 USE OF AOL TOOLS
2.5.1 CUSTOMIZED SITES. In the event that HS chooses to
integrate any third party tools, technologies or
functionality, other than any instant messaging
product, on any Customized Site, and AOL provides
tools, technology or functionality that are
reasonably comparable to that available from such
third party, then HS shall negotiate in good faith
with AOL to determine terms and conditions for HS to
use AOL's tools prior to HS negotiating with any
third party regarding the same. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that HS chooses to integrate
any instant messaging tool on any Customized Site, HS
shall use, and AOL shall provide, "AOL Instant
Messenger(TM)" ("AIM") or alternate ---
AOL-designated instant messaging tool. In the event
that HS integrates one or more third party's tools,
technologies and functionality on any Customized Site
to the extent permitted in this Section 2.5.1, (i) HS
shall be prohibited from displaying any links to such
third party web site or other site displaying or
distributing such third party's tools, technologies
and functionality unless such links are to a
"cul-de-sac" site which (a) provides only the third
party tool's functionality without further links to
the third party's products or services and (b) has an
HS Look and Feel, and (ii) HS shall be prohibited
from displaying any branding for any third party
Interactive Service in connection with such tools,
technologies, or functionality; provided, however,
that in the event that HS chooses to display any
branding for any third party's tools, regardless of
whether such third party is an Interactive Service,
HS shall remove the third party's tools and branding
from the Customized Sites upon AOL's written notice
to HS requesting such removal.
2.5.2 LICENSE TO AOL TOOLS. To the extent AOL provides HS
with AOL Tools for inclusion on the Customized Sites,
AOL and HS shall enter into a license agreement, to
be mutually agreeable to both Parties, pursuant to
which AOL will license to HS such AOL Tools for use
on the Customized Sites, and upon mutual agreement of
the Parties, the Generally Available Sites, during
the Term. In the
---------------

THE OMITTED PORTIONS.
7 CONFIDENTIAL
event that either Party seeks revenue from users of
the Customized Sites or the Generally Available Sites
for such AOL tools, the Parties shall negotiate in
good faith to determine the revenue share of any
revenues derived therefrom.
3. ADVERTISING AND MERCHANDISING
3.1 AOL NETWORK ADVERTISING INVENTORY. AOL owns all right, title
and interest in and to the advertising and promotional spaces
within the AOL Network including, without limitation, the
screens containing Customized Programming and, except to the
extent otherwise provided herein, shall have the right to all
revenues therefrom. The specific advertising inventory within
any AOL forms or pages shall be as determined by AOL. HS shall
reasonably assist AOL in serving ads to any screens containing
Customized Programming which are hosted by HS.
3.2 CUSTOMIZED SITE ADVERTISING INVENTORY. HS owns all right,
title and interest in and to the advertising and promotional
spaces on the Customized Sites and shall have the right to all
revenues therefrom.
3.3 INTERACTIVE COMMERCE. Subject to Section 1.4.1, HS shall have
the right to provide the HS Services and any other services
expressly permitted herein, and sell or offer for sale through
the Customized Sites and/or Customized Programming any
products, goods or services reasonably related to the HS
Services.
4. CUSTOMIZED PROGRAMMING AND CUSTOMIZED SITES
4.1 PRODUCTION; PERFORMANCE. HS shall write all Customized
Programming and design all Customized Sites for distribution
hereunder according to AOL's standard programming and
publishing specifications and guidelines and the Technical
Operating Standards, all as set forth on Exhibit F, and any
additional or modified specifications provided to HS that AOL
deems necessary and appropriate from time and time during the
Term so long as AOL requires compliance with such standards
from similarly situated third parties.
4.2 CUSTOMIZATION. In addition to any customization requirements
set forth elsewhere herein, HS shall customize all Customized
Programming and the Customized Sites for AOL Users as follows:
(a) HS shall co-brand each Customized Site, including a
Customized Site for Classifieds, in accordance with
AOL's specifications for such co-branding as they may
be modified and generally applicable to similarly
situated AOL partners from time to time, for each AOL
Property on which each Customized Site is promoted.
HS shall integrate tools, technologies and
functionality on any Customized Site in accordance
with the provisions of Section 2.5. AOL shall provide
a header and footer to HS for use on the Customized
Sites that is as wide as the Customized Sites
require.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, HS shall
ensure that:
(i) the Customized Sites and Customized
Programming do not (a) directly promote,
advertise, market or distribute the
products, services or content of any other
Interactive Service, or (b) violate any
standard written AOL policy on advertising
or promotion made available to HS and as

applied (e.g., with respect to objectionable
content (e.g., illegal or illicit,
inappropriate for minors, etc.));

promote, advertise, market or distribute any
products or services in any category in
which AOL has an exclusive relationship in
accordance with the lists provided to HS
pursuant to Section 1.4.1; and

a URL address co-branded with the applicable
Customized Site and AOL Property (e.g., xxx.xx.xxx,
xxxxxxxx.xx.xxx, etc.) in such a - - manner that HS
receives traffic credit for such pages. HS and/or AOL
shall host all pages of the Customized Programming
under a URL address co-branded with the applicable
Customized Site and AOL Property in such a manner
that AOL receives traffic credit for such pages
provided, however, that HS may elect to use a
different URL for pages of Customized Programming
hosted by HS so long as HS takes all necessary steps
to ensure that AOL receives traffic credit for all
pages of Customized Programming (e.g., without
limitation, by sending a letter to each of the
traffic reporting agencies stating that AOL shall
receive traffic credit for such pages).
(d) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement, unless the Parties otherwise agree, HS (i)
shall discontinue hosting the Customized Sites under
the co-branded domain name, and (ii) for a period of
twelve (12) months thereafter, host a jump page under
each such co-branded domain name. The design of such
jump page shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties.
The jump page shall be co-branded with each Party's
brands and shall contain prominent navigation to both
the Generally Available Site and an area(s) of the
AOL Network, or other Content area(s), selected by
AOL in its reasonable discretion and related in
subject matter to the Content contained on the
Customized Sites.
(e) Except for the customization requirements set forth
in this Section 4.2, HS reserves the right to
redesign or modify the organization, structure, "look
and feel," navigation and other elements of the
Customized Sites at any time. In the event such
modifications materially and adversely affect the
user interface of the Customized Sites, HS shall
promptly provide written notice to AOL of the
proposed modifications. Within thirty (30) days of
HS' written notice, AOL shall provide written notice
to HS of either (i) its acceptance of the proposed
modifications or (ii) its rejection of the proposed
modifications, together with a written statement of
the reasons AOL rejects the proposed modifications as
adversely affecting the user interface the Customized
Sites. AOL's failure to so respond within thirty (30)
days shall be deemed acceptance. AOL's approval of a
proposed modification shall not be unreasonably
withheld. In the event that AOL rejects a proposed
modification offered by HS pursuant to this Section
4.2(e), HS and AOL shall attempt, in good faith, to
resolve the matter informally within fifteen (15)
days. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve
the matter informally, either Party may commence the
arbitration provisions of this Agreement; provided,
however, that any such dispute that is not presented
to the Management Committee and, if necessary, to
arbitration pursuant to Section VII

ninety (90) days of HS' written notice of the
proposed modification shall be waived by AOL.
4.3 INTEGRITY OF AOL NETWORK. The Parties will work together on
mutually acceptable links (including links back to the AOL
Network) within the Customized Sites in order to create a
robust and engaging AOL member experience and the Customized
Sites may include reasonable editorial links that are
contextually related to the Content described on the
Programming Plan subject to the terms of this Agreement and
the following:
(a) HS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
ensure that AOL traffic is generally either kept
within the Customized Sites or channeled back into
the AOL Network; provided that this paragraph (a)
shall not restrict HS' right and ability to (i) sell
Advertisements on the Customized Sites that link to
the advertiser's sites or (ii) link to third party
Content that is included on the Customized Site as
permitted under this Agreement.
(b) Except if and to the extent otherwise expressly set
forth herein with respect to the Customized
Programming, AOL will exercise complete control over
the navigation, design and layout of any screens,

the Customized Sites.
5. EXCLUSIVITY
5.1 HS EXCLUSIVE SERVICES.
5.1.1 EXCLUSIVITY. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, HS shall be the exclusive provider of
HS Exclusive Services that are directly promoted by
AOL or its Affiliates within the AOL Properties.
5.1.2 EXCEPTIONS. The provisions of Section 5.1.1 shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1.2.
(a) SINGLE BRAND LISTING SERVICES. With respect to any
Person who offers aggregated listings of real estate
properties under such Person's own brand with respect
to its own listings (e.g., - - Century 21, ERA or
Coldwell Banker, each with respect to its own
listings), AOL and its Affiliates shall have the
right to provide nonintegrated promotions (i.e.,
banner advertisements, buttons and text links) for
such Person and such Person's HS Exclusive Services;
provided, however, that (i) on the AOL Service, AOL
may only include one permanent non-integrated
promotion per screen (i.e., banner advertisements,
buttons and text links) for a single such Person
throughout the Home Channel at any one time (i.e.,
such promotion will be for the same Person throughout
the Home Channel), and (ii) on each of the other AOL
Properties, AOL may only include one permanent
non-integrated promotion (i.e., banner
advertisements, buttons and text links) for no more
than a total of two such unaffiliated Persons at any
one time within the Home Channel. AOL shall use
commercially reasonable efforts (including, without
limitation, with respect to existing and future
agreements) to ensure that any such Person's site
promoted on the AOL Properties does not link to HS
Exclusive Services offered by other third parties
(related or unrelated). If HS notifies AOL of such a
cross link to a third party HS Exclusive Service, AOL
shall work with the applicable advertiser to remove
such link in accordance with the terms of such
advertisers' agreement with AOL regarding such link.
10 CONFIDENTIAL
(b) OTHER LINES OF BUSINESS. In the event that
any Person providing HS Exclusive Services
provides products or services other than the
HS Exclusive Services, AOL and its
Affiliates shall not be restricted from
promoting such Person (on or off the AOL
Network), provided however that, except as
otherwise provided in this Section 5.1, AOL
and its Affiliates shall not directly
promote such Person's HS Exclusive Services
within the AOL Properties (e.g., AOL could
promote Classified Ventures' car listings
but not its realty listings).
(c) FSBOS. AOL and its Affiliates shall have the
right to promote for sale by owner listings
("FSBOS") on the AOL Properties provided,
however, AOL shall not promote a third party
which aggregates FSBOs as its primary
business (e.g., XxxXxxxXxXxxxx.xxx). The
location of any integrated links for FSBOs
in the Home Channel shall be subject to HS's
consent, which consent shall be withheld
only if a proposed integrated link would
violate HS's contract with the National
Association of Realtors.
(d) CLASSIFIEDS. No provision of this Agreement
shall limit AOL's or its Affiliates' ability
(on or off the AOL Network) to continue to
promote and populate any classified listings
developed by AOL or one of its Affiliates
("CLASSIFIEDS") with other AOL or third
party aggregator listings in HS Apartments
Listings, or where AOL Users wish to
advertise themselves.
(e) CANADA. The exclusivity set forth in this
Section 5.1 shall not apply to the AOL
Canada Service with respect to HS Apartment
Listings.
(f) GENERAL EXCEPTIONS. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary (and without limiting any
actions which may be taken by AOL without
violation of HS' rights hereunder), no
provision of this Agreement shall limit
AOL's right (on or off the AOL Network) to
do each of the following: (i) undertake
activities or perform duties pursuant to
those existing arrangements with third
parties; provided AOL shall not extend or
renew any such existing agreements or
commitments to the extent such agreements or
commitments could not otherwise be entered
into after the Effective Date; (ii) enter
into an arrangement with any third party for
the primary purpose of acquiring AOL Users
whereby such third party is allowed to
promote or market any or all HS Exclusive
Services on a limited basis solely to AOL
Users that are acquired as a result of such
agreement (but not to AOL Users acquired
through any other means); provided, however,
that in the event AOL enters into such an
arrangement with any of the Named Entities,
HS shall have the option to require that AOL
discontinue display of the Customized
Programming and the Customized Site solely
to AOL Users acquired as a result of such
agreement to the extent the product offering
made pursuant to AOL's agreement with the
Named Entity permits the Named Entity to
promote HS Exclusive Services; (iii) create,
distribute and display editorial commentary
relating to any third party provider of any
HS Exclusive Service generated by persons
unrelated to such third party; or (iv)
populate AOL's proprietary directories
(including without limitation AOL Yellow
Pages and Digital City directories) and any
locally-oriented search directories or
databases. With respect to clause (i) above,
to the best of the knowledge of AOL's senior
executives, there is no existing agreement
with a value in excess of Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000) that authorizes a third
party to distribute HS Exclusive Services
through the AOL Properties.
5.2 BEST-OF-BREED EXCEPTION.
11 CONFIDENTIAL
5.2.1 IN GENERAL. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement (and without limiting any actions which may be taken
by AOL without violation of HS' rights hereunder), HS shall
provide HS Exclusive Services that comply with the following
"KEY INDICATORS": (a) the maintenance of at least [*] percent
([*]%) of the available listings of resale and, to the extent
listed on multiple listing services, new properties in the
United States carried by multiple listing services (excluding
any multiple listing service which prohibits all entities with
access to its listings from distributing its listings online);
(b) the maintenance of listings of apartments within [*]
Rental Properties, at least [*] percent ([*]%) of which shall
be spread across the top [*] ([*]) Metropolitan Statistical
Areas, as determined by the U.S. Bureau of the Census from
time to time, within the United States; and (c) HS's existing
agreement with the National Association of Realtors is still
in force and effect and has not terminated or otherwise
expired.
5.2.2 If at any time during the Term HS fails to meet either of the
Key Indicators set forth in Sections 5.2.1(a) or (b), such
failure shall be a material breach entitling AOL to invoke
Section 7.2 hereof. If at any time during the Term HS fails to
meet the Key Indicator set forth in Section 5.2.1(c), such
failure shall entitle AOL to invoke Section 7.3 hereof. HS
shall give written notice to AOL within five (5) days of the
date on which it fails to meet any of the Key Indicators at
any time during the Term. For the sole purpose of ensuring
compliance with the Key Indicators, AOL shall have the right,
to direct an independent certified public accounting firm
subject to strict confidentiality restrictions to conduct a
reasonable and necessary copying and inspection of HS'
records, contracts and other information that are related to
the Key Indicators. Any such audit may be conducted after
twenty (20) business days prior written notice. HS shall bear
the expense of such audit which determines that HS has failed
to meet a Key Indicator; AOL shall bear the expense for any
such audit which determines that HS not failed to meet a Key
Indicator.
5.2.3 REPRESENTATION. HS represents and warrants that, as of the
Effective Date and throughout the Term, HS shall be in
compliance with the Key Indicators.
6. REPORTING; PAYMENT; PAYMENT PROCEDURES; TAXES.
6.1 PAYMENT. As consideration for the services provided by AOL pursuant to
this Agreement, HS agrees to pay AOL Twenty-Two Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($22,500,000), with Three Million Seven Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($3,750,000) payable by wire transfer immediately upon
confirmation by Xxxxxxx Xxxxx that the letter of credit referred to in
Section 13.1.1 and related credit agreement have been terminated
pursuant to the terms of the side letter referred to in Sections 13.1.3
and 13.2.2 below ("LOC TERMINATION"), and the balance payable in five
equal quarterly installments due April 1, 2003, July 1, 2003, October
1, 2003, January 1, 2004, and April 1, 2004. In addition, as
consideration for termination of the Prior Agreements provided in
Section 11 below (including for advertising delivered through December
31, 2002 pursuant to the Existing Agreement) and the Settlement
Agreement and Release being delivered pursuant to Sections 13.1.2 and
13.2.1 below, HS shall pay AOL Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($7,500,000) by wire transfer immediately upon LOC Termination.
All amounts not paid when due and payable shall bear interest from the
date such amounts are due and payable at the prime rate in effect at
such time.

6.2 SALES REVENUE SHARE ON CUSTOMIZED SITES. HS shall be entitled
to retain [*] percent ([*]%) of the Sales Revenues collected
by HS or its agents or by any other Person with respect to the
Customized Sites.
6.3 PREFERRED PARTNER SHARE. As a preferred partner of AOL, HS
shall be entitled to receive the following shares (the
"CATEGORY SHARE") of online Sales Revenues on the AOL
Properties (excluding AOL Canada) in each calendar quarter as
follows:
(a) [*] percent ([*]%) of Sales Revenues collected by AOL
or its agents during such quarter from (i) sales of
Advertisements (excluding Advertisements for local
entities on Digital City, i.e., advertising targeted
at an audience within a single DMA) within the Home
Channel, and (ii) sales of Designated Products within
the Home Channel (excluding any Sales Revenues
derived from links to Shop@AOL and/or any other AOL
marketplace-type offering); and
(b) [*] percent ([*]%) of Sales Revenues collected by AOL
or its agents during such quarter from (i) sales of
Advertisements (excluding Advertisements for local
entities on Digital City, i.e., Advertisements
targeted at an audience within a single DMA) outside
of the Home Channel that are derived directly from
the HS Services and (b) sales of Designated Products
outside of the Home Channel (excluding any Sales
Revenues derived from Shop@AOL and/or any other AOL
marketplace-type offering).
AOL represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date, no
AOL compensation policy creates disincentive for sales
personnel to sell Advertisements subject to the [*] percent
([*]%) revenue share above. In the event that AOL changes its
compensation policy at any time during the Term of this
Agreement which creates a disincentive for sales personnel to
sell Advertisements subject to the [*] percent ([*]%) revenue
share set forth in subsection (a) above, AOL shall (i)
implement an alternative means of ensuring that Advertisements
Revenue subject to the [*] percent ([*]%) revenue share set
forth in subsection (a) above are not disadvantaged, and (ii)
notify HS in writing of such change in AOL's compensation
policy, provided that the failure of AOL to provide notice to
HS shall not be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
AOL shall pay to HS any amounts owed pursuant to this Section
6.3 within thirty (30) days after the end of each quarter
(including the last quarter of the Term). For purposes of
determining whether an Advertisement runs within or outside of
the Home Channel, the area inside the Home Channel shall be
deemed to include all screens on which the Home Channel header
(or any successor indicia of inclusion within a channel or
successor thereto) is included (e.g., the pets area to the
extent it resides on screen pages within the Home Channel
header shall be considered inside the Home Channel). In the
event there are no such indicia, the parties shall mutually
decide on a means for determining what is inside the Home
Channel.
6.4 SALES REFERRALS. Within 30 days of the Effective Date, HS may
provide to AOL a written list of Persons who offer aggregated
listings of real estate properties under such Person's own
brand with whom HS has a relationship and to whom AOL may wish
to sell

13 CONFIDENTIAL
Advertisements (the "HS LIST"). Within 30 days of receipt of
the HS List, AOL shall respond by informing HS in writing of
any entities on the HS list for which AOL wishes that HS
provide an introduction (the "AOL LIST"). If, during the
remainder of the Term, AOL sells Advertisements on the AOL
Properties to any Person on the AOL List for whom HS provided
an introduction, AOL shall pay HS an Advertising Sales
Commission of [*] percent ([*]%) of the net revenues collected
by AOL for such Advertisements. For the avoidance of doubt,
this provision shall not apply in any manner to any
Advertisements sold by any division of AOL Time Warner Inc.
other than AOL.
6.5 AOL USAGE REPORTING. AOL shall make available to HS a monthly
report on or before the 18th of each month specifying for the
prior calendar month Impressions and click-through with
respect to HS Presences on the AOL Network (other than the
Customized Programming), which are similar in substance and
form to the reports provided by AOL to other content partners
similar to HS.
6.5.1 AD SERVED IMPRESSIONS. Reports relating to
Impressions delivered to HS Presences which are
displayed on the AOL Network through AOL's ad serving
technology ("AD SERVED IMPRESSIONS") will tie on a
line-by-line basis to the Carriage Plan.
6.5.2 NON AD-SERVED IMPRESSIONS.
(a) AOL Service. Reports regarding the reporting periods
through February 28, 2003, to be reported on or
before March 18, 2003 as provided in Section 6.5,
relating to Impressions delivered to HS Presences
which are displayed on the AOL Service through
technology other than AOL's ad server ("NON-AD SERVED
IMPRESSIONS") will not automatically tie to the
Carriage Plan on a line-by-line basis. During this
time period, AOL will make good faith efforts to
manually provide to HS reports which correspond to
the line items in the Carriage Plan for the Non-Ad
Served Impressions on the AOL Service. Except as
provided in Section 6.5.2(c), reports regarding the
reporting periods beginning March 1, 2003, to be
reported on reports on or after April 18, 2003 as
provided in Section 6.5, relating to Non-Ad Served
Impressions on the AOL Service will tie to the
Carriage Plan on a line-by-line basis.
(b) Xxxxxxxx.xxx, Compuserve and MapQuest. Reports
regarding the reporting periods ending January 31,
2003, to be reported on or before February 18, 2003
as provided in Section 6.5, relating to Non-Ad Served
Impressions on Xxxxxxxx.xxx, Compuserve and MapQuest
will not automatically tie to the Carriage Plan on a
line-by-line basis. During this time period, AOL will
make good faith efforts to manually provide to HS
reports which correspond to the line items in the
Carriage Plan for the Non-Ad Served Impressions on
Xxxxxxxx.xxx, Compuserve and MapQuest. Reports
regarding the reporting periods beginning February 1,
2003, to be reported on reports on or after March 18,
2003 as provided in Section 6.5, relating to Non-Ad
Served Impressions on Xxxxxxxx.xxx, Compuserve and
MapQuest will tie to the Carriage Plan on a
line-by-line basis.
(c) Digital City, AOL Canada and AOL PF Items.
Reports relating to Non-Ad Served Impressions on
Digital City, AOL Canada and the two line items
entitled "PF - AOL - Real Estate Main - HTML Feed"

basis. AOL will make good faith efforts to manually
provide to HS reports which correspond to the line
items in the Carriage Plan for the Non-Ad Served
Impressions on Digital City and AOL Canada.
(d) Other Properties. The Carriage Plan attached hereto
as of the Effective Date does not anticipate Non-Ad
Served Impressions on portions of the AOL Network
other than those identified in subsections (a)
through (c) above. In the event that the Parties
modify the Carriage Plan to include Non-Ad Served
Impressions on additional portions of the AOL
Network, AOL will notify HS, upon HS's request,
whether the reports related to Non-Ad Served
Impressions in such additional locations will tie to
the Carriage Plan on a line-by-line basis. In cases
where the available reports will not tie to the
Carriage Plan on a line-by-line basis, AOL will make
good faith efforts to manually provide to HS reports
which correspond to the line items in the Carriage
Plan for the Non-Ad Served Impressions in the
affected areas.
6.5.3 MANUAL IMPLEMENTATION. HS acknowledges that even in
cases where technology enables reporting which ties
to the Carriage Plan on a line by line basis, certain
manual input is required to produce accurate reports,
and the complexity of the Carriage Plan [*]. [*]
shall not be a breach of this Agreement by AOL, [*].
In the event that HS believes that, [*], HS may
submit such concern to the Management Committee for
resolution solely by mutual agreement of the
Management Committee; provided, however, that this
sentence shall not adversely affect HS' rights to
receive the reports set forth in Section 6.5.4 and to
enforce its rights pursuant to Section 1.2.
6.5.4 THIRD PARTY AUDIT. The reports shall be based upon
reporting methodology which is audited regularly by
an independent third party chosen by AOL; provided,
however, that Digital City reporting shall not be
audited.
6.5.5 REPORTING EXPIRATION. HS shall have the right to
review any reports provided by AOL pursuant to this
Section 6.5 or Section 6.6. HS must notify AOL in
writing of anything other than an arithmetic error
contained in the reports to be provided by AOL
pursuant to this Section 6.5.5 or Section 6.6 within
thirty (30) days of HS's receipt of the report. Such
written notice must specify the alleged error. In the
event that HS notifies AOL of an alleged error by AOL
pursuant to this Section 6.5.5, HS and AOL shall
attempt, in good faith, to resolve the matter
informally within fifteen (15) days. In the event the
Parties are unable to resolve the matter informally,
either Party may commence the arbitration provisions
of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such
dispute that is not presented to the Management
Committee and, if necessary, arbitration as provided
in Section VII of Exhibit D for final and binding
resolution within ninety (90) days of HS's written
notice of the alleged error shall be waived by HS.
6.5.6 CLASSIFIEDS. AOL shall not provide any report of any
nature to HS regarding any Impressions delivered to
Classifieds.
6.6 CUSTOMIZED PROGRAMMING REPORTING. AOL shall make available to
HS a monthly report on or before the 18th of each month

form to the reports provided by
---------------

15 CONFIDENTIAL
AOL to other content partners similar to HS. AOL shall provide
to HS certain tags which HS shall embed in specified locations
on the pages of Customized Programming in strict accordance
with AOL's instructions. HS shall further provide AOL with a
monthly report on or before the 18th of each month specifying
for the prior calendar month Impressions to the Customized
Programming as tracked by HS. HS acknowledges and agrees that
the reports provided by AOL shall be the governing reports
under this Agreement for all purposes, and further
acknowledges that there will be discrepancies between the HS
reports and the AOL reports. However, AOL may elect to monitor
the discrepancies between the two reports as an indication of
whether the AOL tags have been properly installed on the
Customized Programming. In the event that HS fails to properly
install the tags in accordance with AOL's instructions, AOL
shall be relieved of its obligation to provide Impressions to
the portion of the Customized Programming where such tags have
been improperly installed. The provisions of Sections 6.5.3,
6.5.4 and 6.5.5. shall apply to this Section 6.6.
6.7 CUSTOMIZED SITES REPORTING. HS will supply AOL with monthly
reports which reflect total Impressions and aggregate usage by
AOL Visitors to the Customized Sites during the prior calendar
month and, to the extent permitted by law and HS' standard
privacy policy applicable to the Generally Available Sites,
any registration information obtained from AOL Visitors at the
Customized Sites during the period in question. HS shall
provide AOL with a written list of all URLs related to the
Customized Sites and HS shall update such list promptly upon
any change thereto. Such reports shall be in such format as
reasonably requested by AOL, consistent in substance and form
with the reports required from other interactive marketing
partners similar to HS, provided that, in the event that AOL
changes the form of its reports and the change in form causes
HS to suffer more than incremental costs, AOL shall pay the
amount of any excess costs over and above such incremental
costs.
6.8 ADVERTISING. AOL shall provide monthly detailed information to
HS regarding all Advertisements appearing on the Home Channel
and any Advertisements on any other portion of the AOL Network
for which a revenue share is payable to HS hereunder. In
reporting any Advertisements, AOL shall provide reasonably
sufficient detail to enable HS to confirm the accuracy of its
revenue share payments.
6.9 SALES REPORTS. With respect to sales of Designated Products by
AOL on the Home Channel with each payment, AOL shall provide
HS with a monthly report containing such information as is
reasonably required for measuring Transaction Revenue activity
through the AOL Network with respect to such Designated
Products. Such report may include, without limitation, the
following to the extent available to or practicable for the
Party providing such report: (i) summary sales information by
day (date, number of Designated Products, number of orders,
total Transaction Revenues); and (ii) detailed sales
information to the extent AOL tracks such information (e.g.,
order date/time stamp, purchaser name and screenname, SKU,
product description). HS shall be entitled to use the reports
in its business operations and to disclose information derived
from such reports in an aggregate form.
6.10 PAYMENT SCHEDULE. Except as otherwise specified herein, AOL
agrees to pay HS all amounts owed to HS as described herein on
a quarterly basis within thirty (30) days of the end of the

quarter for which payment is to be made shall (i) begin on the
first day of the month following the month of execution of
this Agreement and (ii) include the portion of the month of
execution following the Effective Date (unless this Agreement
was executed on the first
16 CONFIDENTIAL
day of a month, in which case the quarter shall be deemed to
begin on the first day of such month).

immediately available, non-refundable U.S. funds wired to the
"America Online" account, Account Number [*] at [*], or such
other account of which AOL shall give HS written notice. In
the event of any questions regarding a payment made (or
expected to be made) by HS to AOL, AOL may contact [*].
6.12 TAXES. All payments provided in this Agreement are exclusive
of any sales, use, gross receipts, excise, import or export
value added or similar taxes or duties (the "TAXES"). HS shall
collect and pay and indemnify and hold AOL harmless from, any
Taxes arising from or related to the operation of the
Customized Sites and/or the sale of any products or services
by HS or its Affiliates and agents, including any penalties
and interest, as well as any costs associated with the
collection or withholding thereof, including attorneys' fees.
7. TERM; TERMINATION; REMEDIES
7.1 TERM. Unless earlier terminated or renewed, or extended, as
set forth herein, the Term of this Agreement shall commence on
the Effective Date and end on June 30, 2004 (the "TERM"). Upon
the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, AOL
may, at its discretion, for a period of up to [*] ([*]) days,
continue to promote one or more "pointers" or links from the

purpose, and HS shall have no promotional payment or other
obligations of any kind to AOL during such [*] ([*]) day
period.
7.2 TERMINATION FOR BREACH. Either Party may terminate this
Agreement at any time in the event of a material breach by the
other Party which remains uncured after thirty (30) days
written notice thereof; provided, however, that the cure

days from the date such payment is due. In the event that AOL
elects to terminate this Agreement based upon a scheduled
payment which was not received by five (5) days after its due
date, HS shall continue to maintain the Customized Programming
and the Customized Sites in accordance with this Agreement for
a period of [*] ([*]) days after receipt of a termination
notice from AOL; provided, however, that in the event that
AOL's termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section
7.2 occurs during the last calendar quarter of the Term, HS
shall continue to maintain the Customized Programming and the
Customized Sites in accordance with this Agreement until June
30, 2004.

any of the top [*] Interactive Sites or services featuring a
broad selection of aggregated third party interactive Content
or navigation thereto (e.g., Alta Vista, Lycos) as measured

8. PRESS RELEASES. In addition to the requirements of Exhibit D, each
Party will submit to the other Party, for its prior written approval,
any press release or any other public statement ("PRESS RELEASE")
regarding the transactions contemplated hereunder, which approval will
not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either
Party may issue Press Releases and other disclosures as required by

counsel without the consent of the other Party and in such event, the
disclosing Party will provide at least five (5) business days prior
written notice of such disclosure unless a shorter period is required

disclosing Party shall provide as much notice as possible. The failure
by one Party to obtain the prior written approval of the other Party
prior to issuing a Press Release (except as required by law, rule,
regulation or court order) shall be deemed a material breach of this
Agreement.
9. PERFORMANCE BY SUBSIDIARIES. To the extent this Agreement requires
performance by a subsidiary of AOL, AOL, in its capacity as stockholder
of such subsidiary, shall cause such subsidiary to perform in
accordance with this Agreement. To the extent this Agreement requires
performance by a subsidiary of Homestore, Homestore, in its capacity as

10. REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY. HS represents and warrants that it is the
successor-in-interest of RealSelect, Inc. and Xxxxxxxxx.xxx, Inc. and
that it has the ability to terminate the Existing Agreement on behalf
of RealSelect, Inc. and Xxxxxxxxx.xxx, Inc.
11. TERMINATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS. Upon the execution hereof, subject to
the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 13,
except as expressly provided in this Section 11, the Parties hereby
terminate as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Existing
Agreement, that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the "SECURITIES
PURCHASE AGREEMENT") and that certain Registration Rights Agreement,
each dated as of April 25, 2000, between AOL and HS (including HS's
predecessors-in-interest) (collectively, the "PRIOR AGREEMENTS") and,
upon such termination, such Prior Agreements shall have no further
force or effect, except as expressly provided in this Section 11.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties specifically acknowledge
and agree that as a result of the termination of the Prior Agreements
all contractual restrictions and/or limitations contained in the Prior
Agreements relating to AOL's disposition of any or all shares of HS
common stock previously acquired pursuant to the Prior Agreements are
terminated and are of no further force and effect, including, without
limitation, all restrictions or limitations set forth in Sections 3(c)

shares. The foregoing notwithstanding, the following provisions in the
Prior Agreements shall expressly survive the termination of the Prior

been paid Ninety Million Dollars ($90,000,000) by Xxxxxxx Xxxxx; and
(iii) Sections IV, V, VI, and VII of Exhibit D to the Existing
Agreement and the following sections of Section VIII of Exhibit D to
the Existing Agreement: Auditing Rights (including audit rights with

EXHIBIT B
DEFINITIONS
DEFINITIONS. The following definitions shall apply to this Agreement:
AD SERVED IMPRESSIONS. As defined in Section 6.5.1 of the Agreement.
ADVERTISEMENTS. Promotions, advertisements, links, pointers, sponsorships, and
similar services or rights.
ADVERTISEMENTS REVENUE. The aggregate amount of all cash collected from third
parties by AOL or its agents, recognized as revenue under generally accepted
accounting principles arising from the license or sale of Advertisements on the
AOL Properties, as the case may be, less applicable Advertising Sales
Commissions and net of any cancellations. Advertising Revenues shall not include
HS Professional Fees or AOL Subscription Fees. HS and AOL agree that: (a) with
respect to the Home Channel, the fair market value of barter received by a Party
or its agents in any calendar quarter from third parties other than Affiliates
from the license or sale of Advertisements shall also be included in Advertising
Revenues, but only to the extent that the fair market value of such barter
received by such Party or its agents from all such third parties other than
Affiliates in any period of measurement exceeds in the aggregate fifteen percent
(15%) of the aggregate amount of all the value (including cash and the fair
market value of barter) received by such Party or its agents during such period
of measurement from the license or sale of such Advertisements; and (b) outside
of the Home Channel on the AOL Properties, the fair market value of barter shall
not be included in Advertising Revenues; however, if HS feels that AOL is
abusing barter in HS Service related areas outside of the Home Channel and as a
result is depriving HS of a meaningful revenue source hereunder, then HS shall
have the right to raise the issue to the Management Committee for resolution as
provided in Section VII of Exhibit D.
ADVERTISING SALES COMMISSIONS. (i) Actual amounts paid as commission to third
party agencies by either buyer or seller in connection with sale of the
Advertisement or (ii) [*]%, in the event the Party has sold the Advertisement
directly and will not be deducting any third party agency commissions.
AFFILIATE. With respect to any Person any agent, distributor or franchisee of
such Person, or an entity that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled
by, or is under common control with such Person, including any entity in which
such Person holds, directly or indirectly, at least a nineteen percent (19%)
equity interest, except that with respect to the provisions of Section 1.4.4 and
Article 5 of the body of this Agreement the required equity interest shall be at
least fifty percent (50%).

representations, warranties or agreements related to the subject matter hereof
which are not expressly provided for in this Agreement.
IV. CONFIDENTIALITY
Each Party acknowledges that Confidential Information may be disclosed to the
other Party during the course of this Agreement. Each Party agrees that it will
take reasonable steps, at least substantially equivalent to the steps it takes
to protect its own proprietary information, during the term of this Agreement,
and for a period of three years following expiration or termination of this
Agreement, to prevent the disclosure of Confidential Information of the other
Party, other than to its employees, or to its other agents who must have access
to such Confidential Information for such Party to perform its obligations
hereunder, who will each agree to comply with this section. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, either Party may issue a press release or other disclosure containing
Confidential Information without the consent of the other Party, to the extent
such disclosure is required by law, rule, regulation or government or court
order or as reasonably advised by legal counsel. In such event, the disclosing
Party will provide at least five (5) business days prior written notice of such
proposed disclosure to the other Party. Further, in the event such disclosure is
required of either Party under the laws, rules or regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission or any other applicable governing body, such Party will
(i) redact mutually agreed-upon portions of this Agreement to the fullest extent
permitted under applicable laws, rules and regulations and (ii) submit a request
to such governing body that such portions and other provisions of this Agreement
receive confidential treatment under the laws, rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise be held in the strictest
confidence to the fullest extent permitted under the laws, rules or regulations
of any other applicable governing body. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AOL shall
be permitted to disclose this Agreement and any Confidential Information to AOL
Canada, Inc.
V. RELATIONSHIP WITH AOL USERS
SOLICITATION OF SUBSCRIBERS. (a) Except as otherwise provided in the main body
of the Agreement, during the Term of this Agreement and for a two year period
thereafter, HS will not use the AOL Network (including, without limitation, the
e-mail network contained therein) to solicit AOL Users on behalf of another
Interactive Service. More generally, HS will not send unsolicited, commercial
e-mail (i.e., "spam") or other online communications through or into AOL's
products or services, absent a Prior Business Relationship. For purposes of this
Agreement, a "PRIOR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP" will mean that the AOL User to whom
commercial e-mail or other online communication is being sent has voluntarily
either (i) engaged in a transaction with HS or (ii) provided information to HS
through a contest, registration, or other communication, which included clear
notice to the AOL User that the information provided could result in commercial
e-mail or other online communications being sent to that AOL User by HS, its
Affiliates or their respective agents. Any commercial e-mail or other online
communications to AOL Users which are otherwise permitted hereunder will (x)
include a prominent and easy means to "opt-out" of receiving any future
commercial communications from HS and (y) shall also be subject to AOL's
then-standard restrictions on distribution of bulk e-mail (e.g., related to the
time and manner in which such e-mail can be distributed through or into the AOL
product or service in question).
(b) HS and AOL shall ensure that their respective collection, use and disclosure
of information obtained from AOL Users under this Agreement ("MEMBER
INFORMATION") complies with (i) all applicable laws and regulations and (ii)
AOL's standard privacy policies, available on the AOL Service at the keyword
term "Privacy" (or, in the case of the Customized Site, HS' standard privacy
policies so long as such policies are published on the site and provide adequate
notice, disclosure and choice to users regarding HS' collection, use and
disclosure of user information). HS will not disclose Member Information
collected hereunder to any third party in a manner that identifies AOL Users as
end users of an AOL product or service or use Member
6 CONFIDENTIAL
Information collected under this Agreement to market another Interactive
Service.
EMAIL NEWSLETTERS. Any email newsletters sent to AOL Users by HS or its agents
shall (i) be subject to AOL's then current policies on use of the email
functionality, including but not limited to AOL's then current policy on
unsolicited bulk email, (ii) be sent only to AOL Users requesting to receive
such newsletters, (iii) not contain Content which violates AOL's Terms of
Service, and (iv) not contain any Advertisements, marketing or promotion for any
other third-party Interactive Service.
AOL USER COMMUNICATIONS. To the extent HS is otherwise permitted to send
communications to AOL Users (in accordance with the other requirements contained
herein) in any such communications to AOL Users on or off the Customized Sites
(including, without limitation, e-mail solicitations), HS will not encourage AOL
Users to take any action inconsistent with the scope and purpose of this
Agreement, including without limitation, the following actions: (i) using an
interactive site other than the Customized Site for the purchase of Products,
(ii) using Content other than the Licensed Content; (iii) bookmarking of
interactive sites; or (iv) changing the default home page on the AOL browser.
Additionally, with respect to such AOL User communications, in the event that HS
encourages an AOL User to purchase Products through such communications, HS
shall ensure that (a) the AOL Network is promoted as the primary means through
which the AOL User can access the Customized Site and (b) any link to the
Customized Site will link to a page which indicates to the AOL User that such
user is in a site which is affiliated with the AOL Network.

acts or omissions. AOL will defend, indemnify, save and hold harmless HS and HS'
officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, distributors, franchisees and employees
from any and all Liabilities arising out of or related to HS' use of the AOL
Tools in accordance with this Agreement, except to the extent the use of the AOL

If a Party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY")
becomes aware of any matter it believes is indemnifiable hereunder involving any
claim, action, suit, investigation, arbitration or other proceeding against the
Indemnified Party by any third party (each an "ACTION"), the Indemnified Party
shall give the other Party (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") prompt written notice of
such Action. Such notice shall (i) provide the basis on which indemnification is
being asserted and (ii) be accompanied by copies of all relevant pleadings,
demands, and other papers related to the Action and in the possession of the
Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of ten (10) days
after delivery of such notice to respond. If the Indemnifying Party elects to
defend the Action or does not respond within the requisite ten (10) day period,
the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to defend the Action, at its own
expense, and by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The
Indemnified Party shall cooperate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party,
with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense and the Indemnified
Party shall have the right to participate fully, at its own expense, in the
defense of such Action. If the Indemnifying Party responds within the required
ten (10) day period and elects not to defend such Action, the Indemnified Party
shall be free, without prejudice to any of the Indemnified Party's rights
hereunder, to compromise or defend (and control the defense of) such Action. In
such case, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate, at its own expense, with the
Indemnified Party and its counsel in the defense against such Action and the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate fully, at its own
expense, in the defense of such Action. Any compromise or settlement of an
Action shall require the prior written consent of both Parties hereunder, such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. AOL AND HS EACH ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS
AGREEMENT WERE NEGOTIATED TO REFLECT AN INFORMED, VOLUNTARY ALLOCATION BETWEEN
THEM OF ALL RISKS (BOTH KNOWN AND UNKNOWN) ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER. THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS RELATED TO WARRANTIES
AND LIABILITY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE INTENDED TO LIMIT THE
CIRCUMSTANCES AND EXTENT OF LIABILITY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION VI SHALL
BE ENFORCEABLE INDEPENDENT OF AND SEVERABLE FROM ANY OTHER ENFORCEABLE OR
UNENFORCEABLE PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
VII. ARBITRATION
(a) Management Committee. The Parties will act in good faith and use
commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resolve any claim, dispute,
controversy or disagreement (each a "DISPUTE") between the Parties or any of
their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns arising under,
in connection with or related to this Agreement or any document executed
pursuant to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.or any
document executed pursuant to this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby. If the Parties cannot promptly resolve the Dispute, the
Dispute will be submitted in writing to the Management Committee for resolution.
For ten (10) days following submission of the Dispute to the Management
Committee, the Management Committee will have the exclusive right to resolve
such Dispute; provided that the Management Committee will have the final and
exclusive right to resolve Disputes arising from any provision of the Agreement
which expressly or implicitly provides for the Parties to reach mutual agreement
as to certain terms. If the Management Committee is unable to amicably resolve
the Dispute during the ten-day period, then the Management Committee will
consider in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days the possibility of
retaining a third party mediator to facilitate resolution of the Dispute. In the
event the Management Committee elects not to retain a
8 CONFIDENTIAL
mediator within such thirty (30) day period, the dispute will be subject to the
resolution mechanisms described below. "MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE" will mean a
committee made up of a senior executive from each of the Parties for the purpose
of resolving Disputes under this Section VII and generally overseeing the
relationship between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Party
will seek, nor will be entitled to seek, binding outside resolution of the
Dispute unless and until the Parties have been unable amicably to resolve the
Dispute as set forth in this Section VII(a) and then, only in compliance with
the procedures set forth in the remainder of this Section VII.
(b) Arbitration. Except for Disputes relating to issues of proprietary rights,
including but not limited to intellectual property and confidentiality, any
Dispute not resolved by amicable resolution as set forth in Section VII(a) will
be governed exclusively and finally by arbitration. Such arbitration will be
conducted by JAMS, or if not possible, another comparable ADR/arbitration
company, in Washington, D.C. and will be initiated and conducted in accordance
with the Commercial Arbitration Rules ("COMMERCIAL RULES") of JAMS, including
any supplementary procedures applicable to large complex commercial disputes
("COMPLEX PROCEDURES"), as such rules will be in effect on the date of delivery
of a demand for arbitration ("DEMAND"), except to the extent that such rules are
inconsistent with the provisions set forth herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parties may agree in good faith in writing that the Complex
Procedures will not apply in order to promote the efficient arbitration of
Disputes where the nature of the Dispute, including without limitation the
amount in controversy, does not justify the application of such procedures.
(c) Selection of Arbitrators. The arbitration panel will consist of three
arbitrators. Each Party will name an arbitrator to be selected from the
JAMS-approved list of arbitrators within ten (10) days after the delivery of the
Demand. The arbitrators should be neutral participants, with no prior
relationship of any kind with either Party that may create a conflict of
interest. Each Party will select one arbitrator, and the third arbitrator should
be selected by the first two arbitrators. If the two arbitrators are unable to
select a third arbitrator within ten (10) days, a third neutral arbitrator will
be appointed by JAMS from its panel of commercial arbitrators for large and
complex cases . Similarly, if either party objects to the selection of any
arbitrator because of an identifiable conflict of interest and the Parties are
unable to resolve the dispute within ten (10) days, then a replacement
arbitrator will be appointed by JAMS from its panel of commercial arbitrators
for large and complex cases. If a vacancy in the arbitration panel occurs after
the hearings have commenced, the remaining arbitrator or arbitrators may not
continue with the hearing and determination of the controversy, unless the
Parties agree otherwise. If the Parties so desire, the Parties may agree to
proceed with arbitration with one arbitrator upon mutual agreement.
(d) Governing Law. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Secs. 1-16, and not
state law, will govern the arbitrability of all Disputes. The arbitrators will
allow such discovery as is appropriate to the purposes of arbitration in
accomplishing a fair, speedy and cost-effective resolution of the Disputes. The
arbitrators will reference the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure then in effect
in setting the scope and timing of discovery. The Federal Rules of Evidence will
apply in toto. The arbitrators may enter a default decision against any Party
who fails to participate in the arbitration proceedings.
(e) Arbitration Awards. The arbitrators will have the authority to award
compensatory damages only. Any award by the arbitrators will be accompanied by a
written opinion setting forth the findings of fact and conclusions of law relied
upon in reaching the decision. Judgment upon the award may be entered by any
court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties agree that the existence, conduct
and content of any arbitration will be kept confidential and no Party will
disclose to any person any information about such arbitration, except as may be
required by law or by any governmental authority or for financial reporting
purposes in each Party's financial statements.
(f) Fees. Each Party will pay the fees of its own attorneys, expenses of
witnesses and all other expenses and costs in connection with the presentation
of such Party's case (collectively, "ATTORNEYS' FEES"). The remaining costs of
the arbitration, including without limitation, fees of the arbitrators, costs of
records or transcripts and administrative fees (collectively, "ARBITRATION
COSTS") will be borne equally by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
arbitrators may modify the allocation of Arbitration Costs and award Attorneys'
Fees in those cases where fairness
9 CONFIDENTIAL
dictates a different allocation of Arbitration Costs between the Parties or an
award of Attorneys' Fees to the prevailing Party as determined to be appropriate
by the arbitrators.
(g) Non Arbitratable Disputes. Any Dispute that is not subject to final
resolution by the Management Committee or to arbitration under this Section VII
(collectively, "NON-ARBITRATION CLAIMS") will be brought in a court of competent
jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Each Party irrevocably consents to
the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the
federal courts situated in the Commonwealth of Virginia, over any and all
Non-Arbitration Claims and any and all actions to enforce such claims or to
recover damages or other relief in connection with such claims.
VIII. MISCELLANEOUS

of all expenses, revenues, fees, transactions and related documentation
(including agreements) in connection with the performance of this Agreement
("RECORDS"). All such Records shall be maintained for a minimum of five (5)

compliance with this Agreement, each of HS and AOL shall have the right, at its
expense, to direct an independent certified public accounting firm subject to
strict confidentiality restrictions to conduct a reasonable and necessary

this Agreement will be deemed to have been delivered and given if delivered by
electronic mail.
NO WAIVER. The failure of either Party to insist upon or enforce strict
performance by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise
any right under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment to any extent of such Party's right to assert or rely upon any
such provision or right in that or any other instance;

reasonably be requested by the other Party for the implementation or continuing
performance of this Agreement.
ASSIGNMENT. Neither Party shall assign this Agreement or any right, interest or
benefit under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other
Party. Except as provided below, assumption of this Agreement by any successor

address material technical problems (over which HS exercises control)
affecting use by AOL Users of the Customized Site (a "HS Technical
Problem") promptly following notice thereof. In the event of a HS
Technical Problem (including, without limitation, infrastructure
deficiencies producing user delays), AOL will have the right to regulate
the promotions it provides to HS hereunder until such time as HS corrects
the HS Technical Problem at issue.
4. Monitoring. HS will ensure that the performance and availability of the

include any reference to the HS Properties (a "REFERENCE") and (b) all HS print
advertisements that are greater than one-half (1/2) of the page size of the
publication in which they appear and that include a Reference, HS shall
prominently promote the Customized Sites' availability through America Online(R)
and include prominent specific references or mentions (verbally where possible)
of the Customized Sites' availability through America Online(R) except where the

alternative cross promotion. In all other HS television, radio and print
advertisements which include a Reference, HS will use commercially reasonable
good faith efforts to prominently promote the Customized Sites' availability
through America Online(R) and include prominent specific references or mentions
(verbally where possible) of the Customized Sites' availability through America

EXHIBIT J
HOMESTORE EMPLOYEE OFFER
HS employees that are located in the United States and not current AOL Members
(the "EMPLOYEES") shall be entitled to receive the following offer during the
sixty (60) day period immediately succeeding the Package Delivery Date (as
defined below) in accordance with the terms herein (the "EMPLOYEE OFFER"):
unlimited access to the AOL Service for a subscription fee of $[*] per month for
one year from registration (the "DISCOUNT PERIOD"). AOL shall, at its expense,
deliver 1,800 AOL Packages to HS on a date no later than forty five (45) days
following the Effective Date (the "PACKAGE DELIVERY DATE"). HS shall promptly
notify all Employees of the availability of the Offer Request; provided that all
communications by HS relating to the Employee Offer shall be subject to AOL's
prior written approval (which may be provided via e-mail), not to be
unreasonably withheld. HS shall provide one (1) AOL Package to each Employee
electing to participate in the Employee Offer. HS shall be responsible for the
costs and expenses associated with its distribution or promotional obligations
set forth under this Exhibit J. As used herein, "AOL PACKAGE" means an
AOL-supplied CD-ROM containing the AOL Software and related promotional and
packaging materials included therewith and "AOL SOFTWARE" means the proprietary
software used to connect to and use the AOL Service.
Each Employee participating in the Employee Offer must register for the AOL
Service during the two (2) month period immediately succeeding the Package
Delivery Date and agree to the terms and conditions of the AOL Service. The
Parties acknowledge that each Employee shall be responsible (and in no event
shall AOL or HS be responsible) for (i) the actions taken by any such Employee
under or through his or her AOL Service account, which actions are subject to
AOL's applicable Terms of Service and (ii) for any surcharges, including,
without limitation, all premium charges, transaction charges, and any applicable
communication surcharges incurred by any AOL Service account issued to any such
Employee. HS understands and agrees that each AOL Service account offered to
Employees hereunder may only be provided to an Employee and may not be sold,
bartered, exchanged or otherwise provided to any other person or entity for use
by such person or entity (the "EMPLOYEE USAGE REQUIREMENT"). AOL shall have the
right to terminate immediately any such AOL Service account for violation of
AOL's Terms of Service or the Employee Usage Requirement, and shall have no
obligation to reinstate or replace any such terminated AOL Service account.
Following the Discount Period for each Employee participating in the Employee
Offer hereunder, continued use of such Employee's AOL Service account
established pursuant to the Employee Offer will be subject to payment by the
applicable Employee of AOL's then-standard monthly subscription fee for the AOL
Service.
AOL DOES NOT MAKE, AND HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE AOL SOFTWARE, THE AOL PACKAGES, OR
ANY OTHER AOL DELIVERABLES UNDER THIS EXHIBIT J, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT AND
IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE.
