forth in paragraph 4.2 in an amount equal to one million five hundred thousand
dollars (U.S.$1,500,000) (the "Advance"). The Advance is a non-refundable,
guaranteed payment to Microsoft. The Advance will be rendered to Microsoft in
four (4) equal installments on a quarterly basis (i.e., every three (3) months
during the Term). The first payment hereunder is due when this Agreement is
signed and returned to Microsoft. Microsoft will invoice Company for the three
(3) remaining payments approximately thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of
each subsequent quarter, and Company will pay such invoiced amounts on or before
the
61

of the Term), Microsoft will compare the fees accumulated for the Copies
actually distributed hereunder against the Advance paid for such quarter (or the
Term). If the fees incurred pursuant to paragraph 4.2 for the number of Copies
actually distributed during such quarter (or the Term) are greater than the
portion of the Advance paid for such quarter (or the Term), Microsoft will
invoice Company for the difference at the applicable rates noted in paragraph
4.2. If at the end of the Term the fees (including the Advance) received by
Microsoft hereunder exceed the amount of the fees incurred by Company for
distribution of Copies hereunder, Microsoft will refund the difference to
Company; except that in no event will Microsoft be required to refund or
otherwise return to Company any portion of the Advance.
4.4 INVOICE AND PAYMENT. Within thirty (30) days after the date of an
invoice, Company will pay Microsoft all amounts owing pursuant to such invoice
in readily available funds. Amounts not paid when due under this Agreement will

monthly basis. Microsoft reserves the right to immediately suspend distribution
of the Newsletter if Company fails to make timely payment of any amounts owing
hereunder. All payments of amounts owing to Microsoft will be made at the

evidence of such payment upon request.
4.7 AUDITS. Microsoft will maintain during the Term and for at least
six (6) months thereafter all of its regular books of account relating to Copies
distributed via the Service and amounts owing to Microsoft hereunder. If Company
believes in good faith that Microsoft invoiced Company in excess of amounts
actually owing pursuant to paragraph 4.2, Company will have the right at
Company's sole expense to audit such books of account, subject to the following:
(a) Company will provide Microsoft with at least thirty (30) days' prior written
notice of such audits; (b) audits may occur only during Microsoft's regular
business hours, and at the location where such books of account are maintained
by Microsoft or such other location reasonably specified by Microsoft; (c)
Company will cooperate with Microsoft in good faith to avoid and limit any
disruption of such audits to Microsoft's business and operations; (d) such audit
will be conducted by an independent accounting firm, acceptable to Microsoft and
compensated by Company in a manner that is not affected by the outcome of the
audit (e.g., no contingency fees); (e) the auditors provide Microsoft with all
results and other communications to Company related to the audit at the same
time such
62
auditors provide such communications to Company; (f) audits may not occur
more than once, may not exceed three (3) consecutive days and must be
completed within six (6) months after the end of the Term; (g) the auditors
provide their final conclusions of the audit to Company and Microsoft
simultaneously and within thirty (3) days after the last day of the audit.
Any information disclosed to or otherwise learned by Company or its auditors
in connection with an audit conducted pursuant to this paragraph constitutes
Confidential Information (as the term is used in Section 9) of Microsoft and
subject to the limitations on use set forth in paragraph 9.1.

respect, and the breach remains uncured for a period of ten (10) days following
the breaching party's receipt of written notice of the breach from the
nonbreaching party.
5.3 MICROSOFT TERMINATION. Notwithstanding paragraph 5.1, Microsoft may
terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice if
Microsoft ceases to offer the Service. In such a case, Microsoft will return to
