This Reseller Agreement (the
"Agreement") is made between ACT ONE Mailing List
Services, Inc. ("ACT ONE") with a place of business
at 165 Pleasant Street, Suite 19, Village Plaza 1, Marblehead,
Massachusetts 01945; and the undersigned ("List Reseller").
List Reseller wishes to resell,
and ACT ONE wishes to supply, compiled lists ("Lists")
for the purpose of direct mail, telemarketing, fax or e-mail
advertising. In consideration of their mutual promises, and
for the good and valuable consideration, the following terms
will govern the volume discount relationship.
1. Term: The duration of this
Agreement is one year beginning _______________________. This
Agreement shall automatically renew for successive periods
of one year unless terminated earlier by either party.
2. List Order and Use: Both
ACT ONE and List Reseller anticipate that List rentals under
the Agreement will be implemented by individual orders which
List Reseller may from time to time submit to ACT ONE. ACT
ONE and List Reseller agree that the terms of the Agreement
will apply to all such orders, unless otherwise agreed in
writing. List Reseller may use each ordered List for a single
mailing, telemarketing, fax or e-mail advertising, unless
otherwise agreed upon.
3. Anticipated Rental Volumes:
The discount specified in Paragraph 4 (below) is based upon
an expected order volume of __________________ addresses per

based upon this anticipated rental volume. If at the end of
one year the actual rental volume does not meet what was originally
expected, List Reseller will pay ACT ONE the difference between
the actual volume discount level and the expected volume discount
level detailed in Paragraph 4. If at the end of one year the
actual rental volume exceeds what was originally expected,
ACT ONE will credit List Reseller the difference between the
actual volume discount level and the expected volume discount
level detailed in Paragraph 4.

with a continuing use of our services. Prepayment deposit
may be required on any order and is always required on the
first three (3) orders from new clients. Accounts may be opened

6. Warranty: ACT ONE will provide
List Reseller with information taken from ACT ONE's compiled
files. ACT ONE warrants that the address information contained
on the rented List corresponds to ACT ONE's compiled files
at the time of its most recent update. However, because address
information is constantly changing, the List may not qualify
for United States Postal Service rate discounts. OTHER THAN
THE WARRANTY STATED ABOVE, ACT ONE MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
WARRANTY WITH REGARD TO THE LIST, INCLUDING BUT LIMITED TO
ANY IMPLIED WARRANT OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE.
7. Confidentiality: List Reseller
acknowledges that the List is a valuable asset of ACT ONE,
and that irreparable injury would be suffered by ACT ONE should
the List be used in a manner not authorized by the Agreement,
or disclosed to others not expressly authorized by ACT ONE
to receive it. List Reseller will not copy the List, or any
part of it, in any form or medium, nor use it to establish
a new list or supplement any existing list, nor will it permit
anyone else under its direction or control to do so. List
Reseller will take all necessary and appropriate action to
protect the security and confidentiality of the List, and
will not allow the List, or any part of it, to be disclosed
to, or used by, any other party for any purpose not expressly
authorized in writing by ACT ONE. In the event List Reseller
fails to comply with this provision, then ACT ONE, in addition
to its other remedies at law and equity, will be entitled
to a court injunction which prohibits List Reseller's further
possession, use, and disclosure of the List or any part of
it, and will also be entitled to recoupment of the reasonable
legal fees incurred in pursuing its remedies. This provision
will survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement.
8. Agents: If the person or
entity which signs the Agreement is an agent ("Agent")
acting in the name of, or for the benefit of a client, then
the Agent warrants that he has received legal authority from
his client to enter into the Agreement on his client's behalf.
THE AGENT GUARANTEES PAYMENT OF ALL CHARGES WITHIN FORTY-FIVE
(45) DAYS FROM THE INVOICE DATE WHETHER OR NOT HE RECEIVES
PAYMENT FROM HIS CLIENT.
9. No Sales to ACT ONE Competitors:
List Reseller is expressly prohibited from renting the List
directly or indirectly, to any competitor of ACT ONE, or any
competitor of an ACT ONE affiliate.
10. Use of ACT ONE's Name:
ACT ONE's name and logo are valuable competitive assets of
ACT ONE, and the use by List of ACT ONE's name or logo for
any purpose, including use of ACT ONE's name or logo as a
description of the origin of the List, is expressly prohibited
unless List Reseller has obtained ACT ONE's prior express
written authorization.
11. Termination of Agreement:
List Reseller acknowledges that list rental is ancillary to
ACT ONE's primary business. ACT ONE may, in its sole discretion
and upon at least five (5) days prior notice to List Reseller,
terminate this Agreement. Upon any such termination, ACT ONE
will refund List Reseller the amount which List Reseller has
paid ACT ONE for license of any List not yet utilized by List
Reseller, or if the List has been partly used, it will refund
List Reseller a prorated portion of that amount. Either party
may terminate the Agreement without further obligation by
notifying the other party at least ninety (90) days prior
to the end of the initial term of this agreement. During any
renewal terms, either party may terminate the agreement at
any time following at least ninety (90) days prior notice.
12. Limitation of Liability:
With the exception of causes of action brought under Paragraph
6 of the Agreement, neither party will be liable to the other
for any sum in excess of the total amount owed or paid to
ACT ONE by List Reseller for any individual order upon which
a claim is made. Neither party will be liable to the other
for any incidental or consequential damages of any nature.
13. Orders: Both ACT ONE and
List Reseller anticipate that List rentals under the Agreement
will be implemented by individual orders which List Reseller
may from time to time submit to ACT ONE. ACT ONE and List
Reseller agree that the terms of the Agreement will apply
to all such orders.
14. Enforcement: List Reseller
will pay all expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred
by ACT ONE in enforcing the obligations of List Reseller under
this agreement.
15. Assignment: List Reseller
may not assign the Agreement. Any such assignment will be

16. Entire Agreement: The Agreement

Reseller regarding list rental. Any changes or additions to
the contract must be in writing and signed by an authorized
representative of both ACT ONE and List Reseller.
17. Interpretation: This contract
shall be interpreted under the laws of the State of Massachusetts.
18. Modification of Agreement:
From time to time, ACT ONE may modify the terms of this Agreement,
or add new terms, by providing List Reseller with a change
notice. The modified or new terms will be effective thirty
(30) days after the date of the notice. After receipt of a
change notice, List Reseller may terminate the Agreement by
written notice to ACT ONE given prior to the end of the thirty
(30) day period; otherwise, the modified or added terms will
become part of the Agreement. ACT ONE may not modify the rates
shown in the Agreement during the initial six (6) months.
19. Acceptance of Orders by
ACT ONE: On each order that List Reseller places under this
Agreement, List Reseller, at ACT ONE's request, will provide
ACT ONE with a sample of the mailing piece, telemarketing
script, fax or e-mail piece that will be used and, if the
mailing, telemarketing, faxing or e-mailing is to be performed
by a contractor for the List Reseller, the name and address
of that contractor. ACT ONE at its sole discretion may decline
to accept any individual order place by List Reseller under
this Agreement. If ACT ONE accepts an order, ACT ONE will
ship the List, in the ordered form, directly to the List Reseller
or, if applicable, to the contractor.
