With the acceptance of WebXess services, the customer agrees to the following, which shall apply during the term of account activity:

1. DEFINITIONS:

2. PRICES
A. All prices for Plans provided by WebXess to Customer are in US dollars.
B. Customer shall be responsible for paying all taxes of any nature which become due with regard to WebXess services, except for taxes on WebXess's income, irrespective of which party may be responsible for reporting or collecting such taxes.

3. ORDER ACCEPTANCE, PAYMENT

A. All orders are subject to acceptance by WebXess. An order will be deemed accepted by WebXess when written confirmation of the order is sent to Customer. WebXess may refuse to accept any order, or delay acceptance pending fulfillment of conditions WebXess may choose to impose. Such refusal or such conditions may not be unreasonable, however, and WebXess agrees to provide Customer with reasonable notice via Email or fax of any intent to delay or decline the acceptance of any order.
B. PAYMENT AND TERMS:
Payment shall be made in US dollars to WebXess into the account designated by WebXess,or as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the parties. Payments are due upon presentation of invoice. If due to bank charges, transfer fees, or the like, WebXess should receive less than its invoice amount, WebXess will re-invoice Customer for the  shortfall. Should payment in full of any invoice (aside from such shortfalls) not be received by WebXess within thirty (30) days after presentation, WebXess will impose a debt service charge amounting to one percent (1%) of the overdue balance for each month or fraction thereof the overdue amount remains unpaid.  In the event that any amount remains unpaid thirty (30) days after presentation of invoice, WebXess may discontinue, withhold, or suspend services to  Customer and/or its customer(s) to whom such unpaid amounts relate.
Customer recognizes the responsibility to detect additional use of services and accept charges based on any services utilized in excess of the Customer’s original account order.  By normal procedure, WebXess will automatically renew an account with the credit card listed on file for the Customer, unless the Customer contacts WebXess with alternative payment information before the payment deadline.  Customer will receive notification of the renewal date by email to the address listed on file, or by regular mail if previously requested by the Customer.  Customer is also responsible to notify WebXess of account discontinuation thirty days (30) prior to a renewal deadline to avoid automatic renewal.
If Customer makes a request to discontinue the account within an already active contract period, the charges for that period will not be refunded. The only event in which funds will be reimbursed is that when WebXess has been notified in writing by Customer before the 30^th day of a new account’s activity. (There will be no reimbursement for E-commerce accounts, due to the licensing agreement.)

4. DUTIES OF WebXess:
WebXess will acquire, on request, an Internet Domain Name (only from the US Networksolutions.com) on behalf of the Customer. In such case the Customer hereby must waive in writing prior to acquisition of said domain name, any and all claims which it may have against WebXess for any loss, damage, claim or expense arising out of, or in relation to, the registration of such Domain Name in any on-line or off-line network directories, membership lists or registration lists, or the release of the Domain Name from such directories or lists following the termination of services by WebXess for any reason. Any costs of WebXess in obtaining or maintaining a domain name for Customer or its customers shall be immediately reimbursed to WebXess upon invoice from WebXess to Customer.

5. RULES AND REGULATIONS
WebXess may impose reasonable rules and regulations regarding the use of its services from time to time. Customer shall impose such rules and regulations on its customers to the extent necessary to ensure compliance.

6. LIMITATION OF WebXess’s OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY

B. WebXess may discontinue servicing any Plan, or may require fulfillment of conditions WebXess may choose to impose as a prerequisite for continuing to service any Plan. Such discontinuation or requirement may not be unreasonable, however, and WebXess agrees to provide Customer with reasonable notice via Email and fax of any such intent to discontinue or impose conditions.
C. Services provided by WebXess to Customer shall be deemed accepted for all purposes thirty days after presentation of invoice for such services, if no written claim or objection regarding such services has been received by WebXess within the 30-day period. No claim related to such accepted services shall be raised.
D. WebXess’s liability to Customer, and any end user of any Plan or other WebXess services is limited to the amount paid to and received by WebXess for services not accepted. In no event shall WebXess be liable to Customer, or any end user or any other entity for any special, consequential, or other damages, however caused, whether for breach of contract, negligence or otherwise, even if WebXess has been advised of the possibility of such damage.
E. Customer will take all necessary measures to preclude WebXess from being made a party to any lawsuit or claim regarding WebXess services provided to any Customer or end user.
