In the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to Subscribers contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, except as required to be delivered in connection with this Agreement, the Company shall so indicate to Subscribers prior to delivery of such notice or information. Subscribers will be granted five days to notify the Company that Subscriber elects not to receive such information. In the case that Subscriber elects not to receive such information, the Company will not deliver such information to Subscribers. In the absence of any such Company indication, Subscribers shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice and information do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries.
