Exhibit 10.26
EXTENSION NO. 1 TO YAHOO! REMOTE MERCHANT INTEGRATION (RMI) AGREEMENT
THIS EXTENSION No. 1 (this “First Extension”) is entered into as of December 19, 2001 (the ”First Extension Effective Date”) by and between Yahoo! Inc. (“Yahoo!”), a Delaware corporation, and ProFlowers, Inc. (“Merchant”), a Delaware corporation, and amends the Yahoo! Remote Merchant Integration (RMI) Agreement between Yahoo! and Merchant entered into as of August 23, 2000 (the “Agreement”).
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Yahoo! and Merchant amend the Agreement as follows:
| 1. | Definitions. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Agreement. |
| 2. | ProFlowers, Inc.. The introductory paragraph of the Agreement is amended so that the title of the parry “Xxxxxxxxxx.xxx” is deleted and replaced by “ProFlowers, Inc.” The parties acknowledge that “Xxxxxxxxxx.xxx” was intended to be “ProFlowers, Inc.” and all obligations and rights herein have been and shall be binding upon ProFlowers, Inc. |
| 3. | Term. The first sentence of Section 11 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
This Agreement will become effective as of the Effective Date and will, unless sooner terminated as provided herein or as otherwise agreed, remain effective at least until October 31, 2002 (the ”Initial Term”).
| 4. | Survival. The penultimate sentence of Section 11 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
Upon termination, [*], Yahoo! reserves the right to delete from its servers any and all information related to Merchant, including but not limited to Merchant Product Information.
| 5. | Payments. As of the November 1, 2001, Section 10 of the Agreement is amended so that it is severed in its entirety and replaced by the following: |
| 10. | Payments to Yahoo!. Merchant will make payments to Yahoo! [*] Service Order basis (the “Service Order Fee”) according to the following schedule on a [*] basis within [*] after the date of the invoice that Yahoo! provides to Merchant, which invoice will describe in reasonable detail Yahoo!’s calculation of the Service Order Fee: |
| NUMBER OF SERVICE ORDERS |
[*] SERVICE ORDER | |
| [*] |
[*] |
A “Service Order” is an order for one or more Merchant products placed by a user on the Merchant Site as it is remotely integrated into Yahoo! Shopping, excluding each order that is placed immediately after the user clicks on an advertising unit placed by Yahoo! according to [*], as recorded by Yahoo!. Yahoo! will calculate the Service Order Fee based on the Service Orders that Yahoo! records. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that Yahoo! records are the official, definitive records for the purpose of calculating the Service Order Fee. [*] Yahoo! shall maintain, during the Term and for a period of 6 months after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, those records and other related materials reasonably necessary for Yahoo! to calculate the Service Order Fee. Yahoo! will permit Merchant, at Merchant’s expense, to retain a reputable, independent certified public accounting firm that is reasonably acceptable to Yahoo! solely for the purposes of reviewing, at a mutually agreed upon time
| * | Material has been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. |
during normal business hours, those Yahoo! records that relate to the calculation of Service Order Fee, Merchant will be entitled to invoke this one-time right to review at any time during the Term and for a period of 6 months after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, which review can extend to only those records and other materials relating to Yahoo!’s calculation of the Service Order Fee between the First Extension Effective Date and the date on which the Agreement expires or terminates. Prior to this review, Merchant will require the certified public accounting firm to sign a standard confidentiality agreement approved by Yahoo!, and the results of this review will be considered Confidential Information. In the event that this review reveals an overpayment of more than [*] Service Order Fee by Merchant, Yahoo! will pay the reasonable cost of this review to Merchant within [*] after Merchant makes the results of this review available to Yahoo!. In the event that this review reveals any overpayment of the Service Order Fee by Merchant, Yahoo! either will credit the amount of any overpayment against future payments of the Service Order Fee or, if no additional payments of the Service Order Fee are owed, will pay the amount of any overpayment to Merchant within [*] after Merchant makes the results of this review available to Yahoo!. All fees are payable in U.S. dollars. Late payments will bear interest at the rate of [*] per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). In the event of any failure by Merchant to make payment, Merchant will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Yahoo! in collecting such amounts.
| 6. | Representations and Warranties. Section 12(a)(ii)(C) of the Agreement is amended so that it is severed in its entirety and replaced by the following: |
that are in any way connected with the transmission of the unsolicited distribution of email or with any unethical marketing practices (Yahoo! acknowledges that Merchant cannot guarantee Merchant affiliates’ performance of Affiliate Agreements that prohibit Merchant affiliates from engaging in unethical marketing practices).
| 7. | Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitations of Liability and Damages. The first sentence of the second paragraph of Section 14 of the Agreement is amended so that it is severed in its entirety and replaced by the following: |
NEITHER PARTY NOR ITS PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS WILL BE LIABLE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OR LEGAL THEORIES WHATSOEVER, FOR ANY LOSS OF BUSINESS, PROFITS OR GOODWILL, LOSS OF USE OR DATA, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER, EVEN IF THAT PARTY IS AWARE OF THE RISK OF SUCH DAMAGES. FOR THE PURPOSES OF CLARITY, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION IS INTENDED TO LIMIT THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY WITH RESPECT TO THE CHARACTERIZATION OF ANY CLAIM BY A THIRD PARTY AS SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR ANY OTHER FORM OF DAMAGES OR AS ATTORNEYS’ FEES, COSTS OR ANY OTHER FORM OF EXPENSES SUCH THAT ALL THESE DAMAGES AND EXPENSES WILL BE DEEMED DIRECT DAMAGES HEREUNDER.
| 8. | Assignment. The Agreement is amended so that the following is inserted as Section 14.5 of the Agreement: |
Assignment. Merchant may not resell, assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder without prior written consent from Yahoo!, and any attempt to resell, assign or transfer such rights shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the previous sentence and subject to the following sentences of this Section 14.5, either party (the “Assigning Party”) may assign or transfer any of its rights, in whole or in part (whether by operation of law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other party (the “Non-Assigning Party”) in the event of a merger, sale of substantially all of the stock or assets or other corporate reorganization of the Assigning Party in which more than fifty percent

(50%) of the voting securities of the Assigning Party are transferred (each an “Acquisition”), as long as the successor agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of the Agreement. Merchant shall provide Yahoo! notice of an Acquisition (“Acquisition Notice”) no later than the date of the Acquisition. Upon receipt of the Acquisition Notice, Yahoo! shall have a right to terminate the Agreement by notifying successor of its intent to terminate the Agreement (“Termination Notice”) within twenty-five (25) calendar days after Yahoo!’s receipt of the Acquisition Notice (the “Evaluation Period”), which termination will become effective five (5) calendar days after receipt of the Termination Notice by successor. During the Evaluation Period and, to the extent that Yahoo! elects to terminate the Agreement hereunder, for the period until termination becomes effective, the Merchant Product Information and the Merchant Pages will promote only those products and services offered by Merchant prior to the Acquisition, and those products and services will be branded solely by Merchant. Additionally, no amounts prepaid by Merchant under the Agreement shall be refunded to Merchant or successor upon termination pursuant to a Termination Notice.
| 9. | Effect of Amendment. Except as amended by this First Extension, the Agreement will remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the terms of this First Extension, the terms of this First Extension shall govern and control. |
| 10. | Counterparts. This First Extension may be executed in any number of counterparts, each which will be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. |
This First Extension has been executed by the duly authorized representatives of the parties as of the First Extension Effective Date.

If Yahoo approves credit, Advertiser will be invoiced on the first day of the contract period set forth on the insertion Order and payment shall be made to Yahoo within [*] from the date of invoice (“Due Date”). Amounts paid alter the Due Date shall bear interest at the rate of [*] per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). In the event Advertiser fails to make timely payment, Advertiser will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Yahoo in collecting such amounts. Yahoo reserves the right to suspend performance of its obligations hereunder (or under any other agreement with Advertiser) in the event Advertiser fails to make timely payment hereunder or under any other agreement with Yahoo.
2. Positioning. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Insertion Order, positioning of advertisements within the Yahoo properties or on any page is at the sole discretion of Yahoo. Yahoo may, at its sole discretion, remove from the Insertion Order (and substitute with similar inventory) any keyword or category page that it believes to be a trademark, trade name, company name, product name or brand name belonging to or claimed by a third party.
3. Usage Statistics. Unless specified in the Insertion Order, Yahoo makes no guarantees with respect to usage statistics or levels of impressions for any advertisement. Advertiser acknowledges that delivery statistics provided by Yahoo are the official, definitive measurements of Yahoo’s performance on any delivery obligations provided in the Insertion Order.

No other measurements or usage statistics (including those of Advertiser or a third party ad server) shall be accepted by Yahoo or have bearing on the Insertion Order.
4. Renewal. Except as expressly set forth in the Insertion Order, any renewal of the Insertion Order and acceptance of any additional advertising order shall be at Yahoo’s sole discretion. Pricing for any renewal period is subject to change by Yahoo from time to time.
5. No Assignment or Resale of Ad Space. Advertiser may not resell, assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder without prior written consent from Yahoo, and any attempt to resell, assign or transfer such rights shall result in immediate termination of this contract, without liability to Yahoo. Notwithstanding the previous sentence and subject to the following sentences of this Section 5, either party (the “Assigning Party”) may assign or transfer any of its rights, in whole or in part (whether by operation of law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other party (the “Non-Assigning Party’) in the event of a merger, sale of substantially all of the stock or assets or other corporate reorganization of the Assigning Party In which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of the Assigning Party are transferred (each an “Acquisition”), as long as the successor agrees in writing to be bound by the terms or the Standard Terms and the Insertion Order.

6. Limitation of Liability. In the event (i) Yahoo fails to publish an advertisement In accordance with the schedule provided in the Insertion Order, (ii) Yahoo fails to deliver the number of total page views specified In the Insertion Order (if any) by the end of the specified period, or (iii) of any other failure, technical or otherwise, of such advertisement to appear as provided in the Insertion Order, the sole liability of Yahoo to Advertiser shall be limited to. at Yahoo’s sole discretion, a pro rata refund of the advertising fee representing undelivered page views, placement of the advertisement at a later time in a comparable position, or extension of the term of the Insertion Order until total page views are delivered. In no event shall Yahoo or Advertiser be responsible for any consequential, special, punitive or other damages, including, without limitation, lost revenue or profits, in any way arising out of or related to the Insertion Order/Standard Terms or publication of the advertisement, even if such party has been advised of the
| * | Material has been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. |

7. Advertiser’s Representations; Indemnification. Advertisements are accepted upon the representation that Advertiser has the right to publish the contents of the advertisement without infringing the rights of any third party and without violating any law. In consideration of such publication, Advertiser agrees, at its own expense, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Yahoo, and its employees, representatives, agents and affiliates, against any and all expenses and losses of any kind (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Yahoo in connection with any claims, administrative proceedings or criminal investigations of any kind arising out of publication of the advertisement and/or any material, product or service of Advertiser to which users can link through the advertisement (including without limitation, any claim of trademark or copyright infringement, defamation, breach of confidentiality, privacy violation, false or deceptive advertising or sales practices).
