EXHIBIT 10.11
VIRTUAL INTERNET PROVIDER (VIP) AGREEMENT
This Agreement is made in the city of Fairfax, Virginia, this 9th day of January
1997, between UUNET Technologies, Inc., whose address is 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx,
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 (UUNET), and i-Pass Alliance Inc., (Reseller), whose
address is 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, XX 00000.
The parties hereto agree and bind themselves as follows:
1. SERVICE. UUNET will sell, and Reseller will purchase, telecommunications
services for the interconnection of Reseller's end users with the Internet.
Reseller is responsible for all end-user customer support, billing, and
collections. UUNET's relationship under this Agreement is solely with Reseller
and not with any of reseller's end users. UUNET agrees that its
telecommunications services provided to Reseller will be of a quality usual and
customary in the industry for similarly situated companies. Although it is
understood that UUNET cannot guarantee continuous service, UUNET agrees to
provide prompt reparation of any disruption in services to the extent reasonably
possible consistent with its obligations to other customers. To this end, UUNET
agrees to provide Reseller with a toll-free number to report problems relating
to network integrity. This number is to be used only by Reseller and will not be
released to Reseller's customers.
2. PRICING. For PPP dial-up traffic (analog dial, 28.8Kbps and ISDN) and VIP
radius server interoperability, the prices contained in Schedule A apply. For
all other services, UUNET's list prices apply unless other prices have been
specifically established.
3. TERMS AND CONDITION. Reseller agrees to comply with the Network Services
Terms and Conditions contained in Schedule B. It further agrees to require its
end users to comply with terms and conditions in substance identical to those in
Sections One and Two of Schedule B. Reseller shall defend, indemnify, and hold
harmless UUNET against any claims resulting from Reseller's use of UUNET's
services, or that of its customers throughout its chain of distribution.
4. PUBLICITY. The prices and terms of this Agreement shall be held confidential
by both parties. Neither party shall publicize the existence of this agreement
without the consent of the other, and in the event of such agreement, all press
release materials shall be reviewed and approved by the other party.
5. TECHNICAL AGREEMENT. Reseller agrees to comply with the Technical Agreement
for Network Interoperability, attached as Schedule C.
6. TERM. The term of this Agreement is one year from the date of contract
signature, which term shall be automatically renewed for additional one year
terms, provided that neither party has delivered to the other party a written
notice of intent not to renew for the forthcoming term. Such notice of intent
shall be given not less than sixty (60) days in advance of the end of the
current term.
7. TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause without
penalty in the event that the other party hereto breaches any material term of
this Agreement. Prior to such termination, the party intending to terminate
shall first give the other party written notice of its
1.
2
intent to terminate which shall clearly describe problem(s) constituting cause.
The other party will have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such
notice to correct the problem. If the problem is not corrected within such
period, the party intending to terminate may terminate this Agreement on such
30th day. However, if Reseller shall violate the acceptable use policy in
Section 2 of Schedule B, or permit such violation, and does not immediately act
to remedy such violation when it becomes aware of it, UUNET may terminate this
Agreement without penalty with ten (10) days written notice. If any amounts due
and owing by Reseller remain unpaid sixty (60) days after date of invoice, then
UUNET may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice without
penalty.
8. TESTING. The full effectiveness of this contract will be contingent upon the
completion of technical testing to the mutual and reasonable satisfaction of
both parties during the period of thirty (30) days following execution of this
Agreement. If either party shall reasonably declare the testing results to be
unsatisfactory at the conclusion of this thirty (30) day period, then the
parties shall have another ten (10) days to correct the problem. If such
correction is not completed to the mutual and reasonable satisfaction of the
parties then this Agreement will terminate with not further liability to either
party. If no such declaration is made, acceptance of technical testing shall be
presumed, and the contract shall remain in effect. Monthly minimums will begin
to accrue from the date of the satisfactory completion of technical testing. If
testing is completed during the course of a month, the first month's minimum
commitment will be prorated to reflect the shortened month.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE TO THE CONTRARY
STATED OR IMPLIED HEREIN, NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR
ANY INCIDENTAL CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY THE OTHER OR BY ANY
ASSIGNEE OR OTHER TRANSFEREE OF THE OTHER, EVEN IF INFORMED IN ADVANCE OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, EXCEPT IN CONNECTION WITH THE INDEMNIFICATION
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 3 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND SECTION 2 OF SCHEDULE B.
10. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall
be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth
of Virginia, USA, and the parties agree that any appropriate state or district
court located in Fairfax County, VA, shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any
case of controversy arising hereunder, and shall be the proper forum in which to
adjudicate such case or controversy.
11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The parties hereto acknowledge that they have read this
entire Agreement and that this Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto
constitute the entire understanding and contract between the parties and
supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous oral or written communications
with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be modified,
amended or in any way altered except by an instrument in writing signed by the
parties.

revised forecasts of its expected usage, and recognizes UUNET's reliance upon
the reasonable accuracy of these forecasts. Specifically, during the first week
of each calendar month. Reseller shall provide UUNET with its best forecast of
users and hours for each remaining month of the terms of the Agreement. Reseller
shall also provide UUNET with any information as to marketing programs which
will be helpful in determining expected future loads, particularly any
information relevant to expected loads in particular geographical
locations/POPs.
15. CONFIDENTIALITY. The parties agree that all disclosures of confidential
and/or proprietary information during the term of this Agreement shall
constitute confidential information of the disclosing party. Each party shall
use its best efforts to ensure the confidentiality of such information supplied
by the disclosing party, or which may be acquired by either in connection with

of any disclosure by said persons. The terms of this Section 15 shall continue

shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary for all
parties to execute the same counterpart hereof.
19. WAIVER. No failure on the part of either party to exercise, and no delay in
exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or

SCHEDULE B
NETWORK SERVICES VIP TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. UUNET exercises no control whatsoever over the content of the information
passing through UUNET. Except as otherwise provided for in Section Ten of the
Network Services Agreement attached hereto, UUNET makes no warranties of any
kind, whether expressed or implied, for the service it is providing. UUNET also
disclaims any warranty or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
UUNET will not be responsible for any damage Reseller suffers. This includes
loss of data resulting from delays, nondeliveries, misdeliveries, or service
interruptions caused by Reseller's own negligence or Reseller's errors or
omissions. Use of any information obtained via UUNET is at the user's own risk.
UUNET specifically denies any responsibility for the accuracy or quality of
information obtained through its services.
2. UUNET's network may be used only for lawful purposes. Use of UUNET's network
for lawful commercial purposes is both permitted and encouraged. Transmission of
any material in violation f any applicable law is prohibited. This includes, but
is not limited to: copyrighted material, material which is threatening or
obscene, or material protected by trade secret. Any access to other networks
connected to UUNET's network must comply with the rules appropriate for the
other network. Reseller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless UUNET from any
claims resulting from Reseller's use of the service or the use of the service by
any of Reseller's customers or others throughout Reseller's chain of
distribution, including end users, which damages UUNET or another party.
3. Resale to other individuals and organizations is permitted, but they may not
further resell the services.
4. Payment is due thirty (30) days after date of invoice. Accounts are in
default if payment is not received within thirty (30) days after date of
invoice. Accounts unpaid sixty (60) days after date of invoice may have service
interrupted. Such interruption does not relieve Reseller from the obligation to
pay the monthly charge. Only a written request to terminate service relieves it
of the obligation to pay the monthly account charge. Accounts in default are
subject to an interest charge of one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month on
the outstanding balance. If Reseller's state does not allow an interest rate of
one-and-one-half-percent (1.5%), then the maximum allowable rate will be
charged. Reseller agrees to pay UUNET its reasonable expenses, including
attorney and collection agency fees, incurred in enforcing UUNET's rights under
this Agreement for money due and owing.
5. These Terms and Conditions supersede all previous representations,
understandings or agreement sand shall prevail notwithstanding any variance with
terms and conditions of any order submitted. Use of UUNET's network constitutes
acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.

server with reasonably current versions of the Radius protocols as provided
by UUNET.
2. Reseller agrees to use software and procedural safeguards to insure that
only accurate routing information for networks to be used by Reseller's
customers is transmitted from Reseller's Radius server into UUNET's network and
to use best efforts to immediately remedy any problems leading to transmission
of incorrect routing information.
3. Reseller agrees to assign each end user customer a unique identification
number for billing purposes, and to reasonably cooperate with UUNET in
establishing the structure of this identification number.

resolving any security infringements which involve Reseller's customers and
UUNET's network.

The parties agree as follows:
1. The parties agree to extend the term of the Agreement and the term of
the CompuServe NSA for an additional three (3) years from the Effective

delivered to the other a written notice of intent not to renew for the
forthcoming term not less than 60 days in advance of the end of the
then-current term.
2. Section 7 of the Agreement shall be replaced with the following:
This Agreement may not be terminated by either party except that either
party may terminate this Agreement if the other party materially
breaches the terms of this Agreement and does not cure the breach within
sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice of such breach, which
notice describes such breach in reasonable detail. Upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement for any reason other than Reseller's breach
of Reseller's payment or confidentiality obligations, at Reseller's
request the parties shall continue to perform all of their obligations
and maintain all of their rights under the Agreement for a phase-out
period of thirty (30) days from the date of termination or expiration.

does not immediately act to remedy such violation when it becomes aware
of it, UUNET may terminate this Agreement without penalty with thirty
(30) days written notice, provided that service may be suspended without
