COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
LOUDEYE CORP.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT CERTIFIES that, for value received,
_____________ (the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the
limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on
or after February 28, 2004 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to the
close of business on the third annual anniversary date of the Initial Exercise
Date (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase
from Loudeye Corp., a corporation incorporated in Delaware (the "Company"), up
to ____________ shares (the "Warrant Shares") of common stock, par value $0.001
per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one
Warrant Share (the "Exercise
Price") under this Warrant shall be $2.00, subject to adjustment hereunder. The
Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is
exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. CAPITALIZED TERMS
USED AND NOT OTHERWISE DEFINED HEREIN SHALL HAVE THE MEANINGS SET FORTH IN THAT
CERTAIN SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (THE "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), DATED AUGUST
28, 2003, BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE INVESTORS SIGNATORY THERETO.
Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws and Section 7 of this Warrant, this Warrant and
all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole but not in part, at the office
or agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney,
upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto
properly endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant
Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of
the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously with such issue).
Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Except as provided in Section 4 herein, exercise of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or
times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the
Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of
Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company
(or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by
notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder
appearing on the books of the Company) and upon payment of the Exercise
Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check
drawn on a United States bank or by means of a cashless exercise pursuant
to Section 3(d), the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for
the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for shares
purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder within five (5)
Trading Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been
exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been
exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have
been issued, and the Holder or any other person so designated to be named
therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares
for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment
to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by
the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of such
shares, have been paid. If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a
certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to
this Section 3(a) by the close of business on the fifth Trading Day after
the date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such
exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the
Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise by the close of
business on the fifth Trading Day after the date of exercise, and if after
such fifth Trading Day the Holder is required by its broker to purchase
(in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to
deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares
which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "Buy-In"),
then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which
(x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if
any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount
obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company
was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at
issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder,
either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of
Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the
Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued
had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a
total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an
attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price
giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of
the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In,
together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably
requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to
pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the
Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company
shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates
representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for
by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be
identical with this Warrant.
The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and
the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this
Warrant, pursuant to Section 3(a) or otherwise, to the extent that after
giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together with
the Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of
Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For purposes
of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made,
but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be
issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this
Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B)
exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any
other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other
Debentures or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise
analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(c), beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the
rules promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained
in this Section 3(c) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is
exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of
which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole
discretion of such Xxxxxx, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise
shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this Warrant
is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and
of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to
such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no
obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For
purposes of this Section 3(c), in determining the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form
10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public
announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the
Company's Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding; provided that the Holder may rely on the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in clause (x) or (y) only
if it has no knowledge or reason to believe that the information contained
therein is inaccurate. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the
Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the
Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case,
the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after
giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company,
including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as
of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.
The provisions of this Section 3(c) may be waived by the Holder upon, at
the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days' prior notice to the
Company, and the provisions of this Section 3(c) shall continue to apply
until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as
may be specified in such notice of waiver). No exercise of this Warrant in
violation of this Section 3(c) but otherwise in accordance with this
Warrant shall affect the status of the Warrant Shares as validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.
(d) If, but only if, at any time after one year from the date
of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement
registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, this Warrant
may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in
which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for
the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing
[(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day preceding the date of such
election;
(B) = the Exercise Price, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.
No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant
Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax
or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all
of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the
Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it
for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books
or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
Transfer, Division and Combination.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and
the conditions set forth in Sections 1 and 7(e) hereof and to the
provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all
rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with a
written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached
hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds
sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such
transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee and in
the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall
issue to the assignor a new Warrant, and this Warrant shall promptly be
cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new
holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant
issued.
The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own
expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this
Section 7.
The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books
for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.
If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection
with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not
be registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the
Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the
Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the
Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form,
substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made without
registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state
securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute
and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance
acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited
investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act.
No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not
entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the
Company. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate
Exercise Price (or by means of a cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so
purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner
of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such
surrender or payment.
Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company
covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock
certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in
the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon
surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated,
the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like
tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock
certificate.
Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be
taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday,
Sunday or legal holiday.
Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The
number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and
the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend
in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to
holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv)
issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock,
then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant
immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the
Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or
other securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled
to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such
adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled
to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such
adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to
such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities
of the Company resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to
this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of
such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon
exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor
or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation,
and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of
this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which
is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or
exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a
specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors
of the Company.
Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or
number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of
Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other
securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by
which such adjustment was made.
Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or
other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any
other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the
Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale,
transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property,
assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 10 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii)
in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 10
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such
notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any
such time is to be
fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange
their Warrant Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such
disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice
shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Xxxxxx
appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section
17(d).
Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such
Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any
applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon
which the Common Stock may be listed.
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the
Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant
Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to
such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or
consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment
in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions
thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory
body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
Miscellaneous.
Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall constitute a contract
under the laws of New York, without regard to its conflict of law,
principles or rules.
Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares
acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have
restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Xxxxxx's rights,
powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the
Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply
with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages
to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be
sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings,
incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in
otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be
delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase
Agreement; provided that upon any permitted assignment of this Warrant,
the assignee shall promptly provide the Company with its address for
notices, which shall be the address for notices to such assignee, until
changed in accordance with the Purchase Agreement.
Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence
of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase
Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of
Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price
of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise
all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled
to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company
agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any
loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this
Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific
performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws,
this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure
to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and
the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this
Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to
time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder
of Warrant Shares.
Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the
provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and
the Holder.
Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions
of this Warrant.
Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed
a part of this Warrant.
Acceptance. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall
constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and
conditions contained herein.
