under which Customer may use certain services made generally available by Google
and described further herein and/or in an applicable Order Form (the
"SERVICES"). Such Services may be ordered by Customer and shall be identified on
one or more separately stated standard Google order forms that reference this

This GSA and the corresponding Order Form(s) together constitute the

Additional Sites and Co-branded Sites approved pursuant to Sections 1.1.1
and 1.1.2, through the Google Content-Targeted Advertising Program
("CTAP") as further set forth herein. Each of Google and Customer shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to implement CTAP on the Sites within
[*] from the Order Form Effective Date.
1.1.1 Additional Sites.
(a) Subject to Section 1.9.1(b), if during the Services Term Customer
[*] launches or acquires a Web site [*] that is not already a Site,
Additional Site or Co-branded Site, then, [*]. [*], such site will
become an "ADDITIONAL SITE" under this Agreement (it being

comply with the applicable terms and conditions of the Agreement,
including without limitation all terms and conditions regarding use
and prohibited uses of the Services, terms and conditions relating

treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
1.1.2 Co-branded Sites. If during the Services Term Customer launches a
co-branded version of a Site or Additional Site [*] then, [*]. [*], such
site will become a "Co-branded Site" under this Agreement (it being
understood for the avoidance of doubt that the economic terms concerning
revenue share set forth in the Order Form shall be applicable to
Impressions of such Co-branded Site). [*]. In the event that Google does
not reply to a Co-branded Site Offer within the Co-brand Response Period,
Google shall be deemed to have rejected the Co-branded Site Offer.
Customer is responsible for each Co-branded Site's use of the Services
provided hereunder and shall ensure that any and all such Co-branded Sites
comply with the applicable terms and conditions of the Agreement,
including without limitation all terms and conditions regarding use and

1.2 CTAP Operations.
1.2.1 Implementation. Customer acknowledges that Google will provide third-party
and/or Google advertisements for display on the Sites, Additional Sites
and Co-branded Sites using Google's advertising serving technology
pursuant to this Agreement, and Customer and Google each will use
commercially reasonable efforts to assist the other in implementing such
technology on the Sites, Additional Sites and Co-branded Sites. Customer
shall comply with Google's technical requirements for the delivery of Ads
as provided by Google to Customer from time to time, it being understood
that any update thereto is subject to the provisions of Section 12.2 (the
"TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS"), including without limitation specifications for
tracking all advertising impressions that may contain one or more Ads
served under this Agreement (each "AD UNIT") [*]. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Technical Requirements at launch contemplate that Google
will deliver Ads [*], and Customer will have the technical ability
(subject to the provisions of Section 1.3) to [*]. For the avoidance of
doubt, the fact that Customer will have the [*] in no way implies any
waiver of Customer's obligation to [*]. The Technical Requirements may be
updated in accordance with Section 1.2.2. Unless otherwise approved by
Google in writing in advance, Customer shall not modify or edit any [*]
provided by Google, or other elements (or any portion thereof) at any
time. In addition, Customer shall not alter its advertising delivery
system in a manner that Customer anticipates is likely to have an adverse
impact on Google's ability to deliver Ads under this Agreement without
providing at least [*] prior written notice thereof to Google (it being
agreed that Customer will exercise reasonable and good faith judgment in
considering whether such change is likely to have an adverse impact on
Google's ability to deliver Ads under this Agreement). In any event, if
Customer makes a change without providing such notice and such change
adversely impacts Google, Customer will take such action as is required to
cure such impact within [*]. Customer shall not hinder or obstruct in any
way the display of the full text of the Ad Unit as provided by Google
(including without limitation through the use of pop-ups or similar
graphical units) or

otherwise minimize or remove any Ad(s) from display unless approved in
writing in advance by Google [*]. Customer shall ensure that Ad Units
appear only on Web pages that contain content only in the [*] languages.
Google will make the CTAP Service available with respect to additional
languages and domains as and when such additional languages and domains
are made generally commercially available as part of the CTAP to customers
(as evidenced by written notice to Customer from Google, which may include
a public release announcing the launch of such services); provided that
(i) Google is given a reasonable period of time to permit a proper
implementation of such Services on the Sites, Additional Sites and
Co-branded Sites; (ii) the availability of the Service in such additional
languages will be subject to Customer's compliance with any technical
specifications applicable thereto; (iii) Service hereunder in such
additional languages may be terminated by Google to the extent Google
ceases to make such service in such additional languages generally
commercially available to customers; and (iv) for the avoidance of doubt,
only impressions of [*] only pages (in the domains specified in the Order
Form) will count toward satisfying Customers Monthly Minimum Number of
Impressions.
1.2.2 Updates to Technical Requirements. Google may update the Technical
Requirements from time to time by giving Customer written notice thereof;
provided that [*]. If such update is as a result of the release by Google
of a major update or version change to the Google API or the release of a
new API (e.g., [*]), Customer will implement such changes within [*] of
the date Customer is notified of such update; [*]. If such update is a
result of a minor update to an existing version of Google's API (as
opposed to a major change or update), Customer will implement such change
within [*] of receiving written notice thereof. [*]
1.2.3 Ad Unavailability. In the event that an Ad is not available through the
CTAP Services, whether as a result of [*] ("AD UNAVAILABILITY"), Google
will return a response indicating that no Ad is available for such
request, in which case Customer may run its own advertisements. If Google
returns a response indicating that no Ad is available as a result of Ad
Unavailability, such instance will be counted as an "IMPRESSION" for the
purposes of determining whether Customer has satisfied its Monthly Minimum
Number of Impressions.
1.2.4 [*]. Customer understands and agrees that the proper tracking of Ads
delivered under this Agreement requires the strict compliance by it with
the technical requirements provided by Google, including without
limitation, [*]. Customer and Google will work in good faith to optimize
the placement and appearance of Ads delivered hereunder with the objective
of improving the performance of Ads delivered hereunder. Accordingly, upon
request of one of the parties, but no more frequently than one time per
month, the parties will review the performance of the Ads delivered under
this Agreement (including by way of reviewing the placement and
appearance, and associated performance, of Ads on the pages), and will
otherwise consult with a view toward optimizing performance under this
Agreement. [*].

Ads and Ad Units shall conform to the specifications contained in this
Agreement, [*]. In addition, Customer will provide such information about
the placements of Ad Units and modifications thereto on all pages as is
reasonably requested by Google from time to time. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary, [*].
1.3.2 Attribution. Unless otherwise consented to by the parties in writing in
advance (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), Customer
agrees that it shall not [*]. Within each Ad Unit, Customer will indicate
that Ads are "Sponsored Links" or other equivalent designation indicating
that the Ads are compensated linked advertisements, and, subject to
obtaining Google's prior written consent, may indicate with a link that
Ads are provided by Google. Google may revoke any authorization or
approval to use its Brand Features under this Agreement or in the Ad Units
at any time during the Services Term by providing Customer with sufficient
prior written notice to permit Customer to cease such usage in a
reasonable period of time. In addition, Customer may request in certain
instances that Google attribution be included as part of certain Ad Units.
Google agrees to consider such requests in good faith, provided that
Google will reserve the right to agree to or reject such attribution on a
case by case basis in its sole discretion. If applicable law requires the
labeling of advertisements in a manner that is inconsistent with the then
current implementation, the parties will consult in good faith to agree on
the display of Ads in a manner that complies with applicable law.
1.3.3 Prohibited Placements. Customer will not display Ads on the pages listed
in Section 1.4.1(k), subject to the next sentence. [*]. In addition, upon
Google's request, Customer will not display Ads on pages or channels that

shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement or to receive any make
good impressions with respect to any month in the event that either (i)
Customer would have delivered the Monthly Minimum Number of Impressions in
any given month but for Google's election not to provide Ad Units pursuant
to the fourth sentence of Section 1.3.3; or (ii) Customer shall fail to
deliver the Monthly Minimum Number of Impressions due to Google's breach
of the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit C.

5. Indemnification. Google will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Customer
and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all damages, judgments, losses, costs and
expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) arising out of (x) any
third party lawsuit or proceeding brought against Customer based upon a
claim that the Services or any Google Brand Feature infringes any
copyright, trade secret, [*] of such third party, or (y) any third party
(other than a Related Third Party) lawsuit or proceeding brought against
Customer as a result of a breach of this Agreement by Google.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Google have any
obligations or liability under this Section 5 arising from: (i) use of the
Services or Google Brand Features in a modified form or in combination
with materials not furnished by Google, (ii) any content, information or
data provided to Google by Customer, End Users or any other third parties,
and (iv) any Ads or third party websites to which Ads may link. Google, in
its sole and reasonable discretion, reserves the right to terminate
Customer's continued use of any Services or Google Brand Features that are
alleged or believed by Google to infringe. Customer will indemnify, defend
and hold harmless Google and its affiliates and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents from and against any and all damages,
judgments, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of
counsel) arising out of any third party lawsuit or proceeding brought
against Google based upon: (a) a claim that the Content, Sites, Additional
Sites, Co-branded Sites and/or Customer Brand Features or any co-branding
partner's Brand Features infringe any copyright, trade secret, [*] of such
third party; and/or (b) Customer's or any of Customer's third party
counterparty's (including, without limitation, third parties with
Co-branded Sites), or any of the Sites', Additional Sites' or Co-branded
Sites', use of the Services in any manner in breach of the Agreement.
Indemnification shall be provided for any claim covered under this Section
6 and shall be limited to (i) payment by the indemnifying party
("INDEMNITOR") of all damages and costs finally awarded for such claim, or
(ii) settlement costs approved in writing by the Indemnitor. The foregoing
obligations shall exist only if the party seeking indemnification
("INDEMNITEE"): (i) promptly notifies the Indemnitor of such claim, (ii)

[*] Indicates that certain information in this exhibit has been omitted and
filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential

11
provides the Indemnitor with reasonable information, assistance and
cooperation in defending the lawsuit or proceeding, and (iii) gives the
Indemnitor full control and sole authority over the defense and settlement
of such claim; provided that the Indemnitor may not, without the
Indemnitee's prior written consent, acquiesce to any judgment or enter
into any settlement that adversely affects the rights and interests of the
Indemnitee or imposes any restriction on the Indemnitee's ability to
operate its business (except for any limitations or adverse effects that
may be imposed on the Services as a result of the claim giving rise to
indemnification). The Indemnitee may join in defense with counsel of its
choice at its own expense. The Indemnitor shall only reimburse the
Indemnitee for expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with the Indemnitor's
prior written approval. THE FOREGOING STATES THE PARTIES' ENTIRE LIABILITY
AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO INFRINGEMENT OF A THIRD PARTY'S
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
6. Limitation of Liability. [*], NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE
DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOST DATA, OR LOST
REVENUE, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING PRODUCTS LIABILITY, STRICT
LIABILITY AND NEGLIGENCE), AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY WAS OR SHOULD
HAVE BEEN AWARE OR ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE AND
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY
STATED HEREIN. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence will not
operate to limit direct damages (including, without limitation, lost
profits under this Agreement, and costs of procurement of substitute
services under this Agreement) either party would be entitled to under
this Agreement, subject in any case to the aggrieved party's obligation to
mitigate. [*], IN NO EVENT SHALL GOOGLE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR
ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THE AGREEMENT EXCEED THE NET AMOUNT (MINUS ALL
DEDUCTIONS, REVENUE SHARING AND OTHER OFFSETS PROVIDED FOR UNDER THE
AGREEMENT) GOOGLE HAS ACTUALLY RECEIVED AND RECOGNIZED FOR THE SERVICES
GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM DURING THE [*] IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF
THE APPLICABLE CLAIM. In the event of a claim occurring in the first [*]
of this Agreement, the limitation of liability provided in the immediately
preceding sentence will be equal to [*] (minus all deductions, revenue
sharing and other offsets provided for under the Agreement) Google has
actually received for the Services giving rise to such claim under this
Agreement since the beginning of the Term to the date of the applicable
claim. [*], IN NO EVENT SHALL CUSTOMER'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL
CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THE AGREEMENT EXCEED THE NET AMOUNT CUSTOMER HAS
ACTUALLY RECEIVED OR WOULD OTHERWISE BE DUE UNDER THE AGREEMENT DURING THE
[*] IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE APPLICABLE CLAIM. In the event
of a claim occurring in the first [*] of this Agreement, the limitation of
liability provided in the immediately preceding sentence will be equal to
[*] Customer has actually received or would otherwise be due under this
SF1:555061.2
[*] Indicates that certain information in this exhibit has been omitted and
filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
12
Agreement since the beginning of the Term to the date of the applicable
claim. The parties agree that (i) the mutual agreements made in this
Section reflect a reasonable allocation or risk, and (ii) that each party
would not enter into the Agreement without these limitations on liability.
7. Confidentiality. Use and disclosure of confidential and/or proprietary
information disclosed hereunder, including without limitation the content
of the Agreement and any information provided pursuant to the Agreement or
in connection with a request for approval of any Additional Site or new
layout, shall be governed by the terms of the Google Mutual Non-Disclosure
Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit G (the "NDA"). The terms of the NDA
are hereby incorporated by reference into this GSA.
8. Term and Termination.
8.1 Term. The term of an Order Form under which Services may be used by
Customer shall commence on the applicable Order Form Effective Date
(except as otherwise specified in 8.2.3 such Order Form) and shall
continue for the period of time set forth on such Order Form ("SERVICES
TERM"), unless earlier terminated as provided herein.
8.2 Termination.
8.2.1 General. Either party may suspend performance and/or terminate the
Agreement, in whole or in part: (a) if the other party materially breaches
any material term or condition of the Agreement and fails to cure such
breach within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice thereof: or
(b) if the other party becomes insolvent or makes any assignment for the
benefit of creditors or similar transfer evidencing insolvency, or suffers
or permits the commencement of any form of insolvency or receivership
proceeding, or has any petition under bankruptcy law filed against it,
which petition is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of such filing, or
has a trustee, administrator or receiver appointed for its business or
assets or any part thereof. [*].
8.2.2 Google Termination Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to
the termination rights granted above, Google may terminate the Agreement,
in whole or in part:
(i) if Customer breaches any provision of Section 1.4 (Prohibited
Actions), Section 2.1 (Google Rights) (other than subsections (i)
and (iii) of the fourth sentence thereof, which are addressed below,
or subsection (vi) of the fourth sentence thereof, which is
addressed in Section 8.2.1(a)), or Section 2.3 (License Grants;
Brand Features), and fails to cure such breach within [*] after
receiving written notice thereof ([*]);
(ii) immediately upon written notice, if (A) Customer breaches subsection
(i) or (iii) of the fourth sentence of Section 2.1 (Google Rights)
or any provision of Section 7 (Confidentiality); (B) Customer has
materially breached the Agreement [*] during the Services Term, in
each case notwithstanding any cure of such breaches [*]; (C)

13
Impressions in any calendar month and fails to cure such Shortfall
as permitted by Section 1.3.4; (D) Google reasonably determines that
it is impracticable to continue providing the Services in light of
applicable laws; and
(iii) as expressly permitted in Section 1.7.2(a)(4)b and/or the last
sentence of Section 1.4.4.
8.2.3 Termination for Change of Control.
(a) Prohibited Entity. In the event of a Change of Control involving
Customer to a Prohibited Entity (as defined below), Google shall
have the right, upon written notice delivered to Customer (or its
successor), to terminate this Agreement, effective as of the [*] day
following the consummation of the closing of such Change of Control.
Such notice shall be delivered by Google not more than [*] following
Google's receipt of written notice from Customer that Customer has
entered into a definitive agreement involving a Change of Control.
(b) Competitor. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control
involving Customer to [*], or any of their respective successors or
assigns, or any entities which control, are controlled by or under
common control with the foregoing, either party shall have the right
to terminate this Agreement, effective as of the consummation of
such a transaction provided that (i) in the case of Customer's
exercise of this termination right, Customer delivers to Google
written notice not more than [*] following the date Customer enters
into a definitive agreement contemplating a Change of Control giving
rise to this right, and (ii) in the case of Google's exercise of
this termination right, Google delivers to Customer written notice
not more than [*] following its receipt of written notice from
Customer that Customer has entered into a definitive agreement
contemplating a Change of Control giving rise to this right.
(c) Notice. Customer agrees to provide written notice of a Change of
Control in a timely manner and, upon request, any information that
Google reasonably requires to evaluate the Change of Control
transaction, including its acquirer, subject to applicable
confidentiality or contractual obligations. Customer also agrees to
notify Google of the actual closing date of a Change of Control
transaction no less than [*] prior thereto. For the avoidance of
doubt, under no circumstances shall a termination right exercised
hereunder be effective if the applicable Change of Control
transaction is not consummated. Customer will provide Google notice
in the event a Change of Control transaction is terminated.
(d) Definitions. "CHANGE OF CONTROL" with respect to a party means (i)
the direct or indirect acquisition, whether in one or a series of
transactions, by any person or related persons constituting a group,
of (A) beneficial ownership of issued and outstanding shares of
stock of such party, the result of which is that such person or such
group possesses in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the combined
voting power of all then-issued and outstanding stock of such party,
or (B) the power to elect, appoint, or cause the election or
appointment of at least a majority of the
SF1:555061.2
[*] Indicates that certain information in this exhibit has been omitted and
filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
14
members of the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of
such party; (ii) a merger or consolidation of a party with a person
or a direct or indirect subsidiary of a person, or a reorganization
or recapitalization of a party, provided that the result of such
transaction, whether in one or a series of related transactions, is
that the holders of the outstanding voting stock of such party
immediately prior to such consummation do not possess, whether
directly or indirectly, immediately after the consummation of such
transaction, in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting
power of all of the then-issued and outstanding stock of such party,
merged or consolidated person, its direct or indirect parent, or the
surviving person of such party; or (iii) the sale or disposition,
whether directly or indirectly, in one or a series of related
transactions, of substantially all of the assets of a party. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, the terms "person," "group" and
"beneficial ownership" shall have the meanings given to such terms
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the initial public
offering of either party will not be deemed to be a Change of
Control. "PROHIBITED ENTITY" shall mean [*].
8.2.4 Confidentiality. For the avoidance of doubt, each party reaffirms to the
other its agreement not to disclose to any potential acquiror any
Confidential Information of the other party (including in the case of
Google Confidential Information, any Google metrics, protocols or
guidelines).
8.3 Rights/Actions Upon Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of the
Agreement for any reason: (i) all rights and licenses granted by Google
shall cease immediately; (ii) each party shall return to the other party,
or destroy and certify the destruction of, all Confidential Information of
the other party; and (iii) Customer will promptly remove from the Site,
Additional Site or Co-branded Site any and all Google Brand Features to
the extent Google granted Customer the right to display any such Brand
Features during the Services Term. In addition, if this Agreement is
terminated (a) by Customer pursuant to the last sentence of Section 8.2.1,
or (b) by Google pursuant to Section 8.2.1, Section 8.2.2(i) or Section
8.2.2(ii) (other than subsection (D) thereof), then [*].
8.4 Effect of Termination. The termination or expiration of an individual
Order Form shall not have the effect of terminating any other individual
Order Form or this GSA unless expressly agreed to by the parties in
writing. If an Order Form (but not this GSA) terminates or if the Services
Term set forth in an Order Form expires, all rights and licenses granted
by Google relating to the applicable Services and all other rights and
licenses granted by Google to Customer as set forth in such Order Form, if
any, shall cease immediately. Termination of all Order Forms hereunder
shall result in the expiration of this GSA. Termination or expiration of
this Agreement, in part or in whole, shall not limit either party from
pursuing other remedies available to it.
8.5 Miscellaneous. Each party shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and
regulations, if any, required in performing its obligations under the
Agreement. All notices shall be in English and in writing and (a) if sent
to Customer to the address identified on the Order Form and (b) if sent to
Google to such address as provided at

for such notice purposes; provided, however, that all invoices and
payments shall be sent to the attention of Google Finance, all legal
notices shall be sent to the attention of the Google Legal Department, and
all other correspondence shall be sent to the attention of the account
manager specified by Google. Notice shall be deemed given (i) upon receipt
when delivered personally, (ii) upon written verification of receipt from
overnight courier, (iii) upon verification of receipt of registered or
certified mail or (iv) upon verification of receipt via facsimile,
provided that such notice is also sent simultaneously via first class
mail. Neither party may assign its rights or delegate its obligations
under this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise without the other
party's prior written consent, provided however that either party may
assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement without
the consent of the other party in connection with a Change of Control, so
long as the surviving entity or purchaser in such Change of Control
transaction expressly assumes in writing the performance of all of the
terms of this Agreement. In addition, Google may assign its rights under
this Agreement in connection with a change in domicile without obtaining
any consent hereunder. The Agreement is not intended to benefit, nor shall
it be deemed to give rise to, any rights in any third party. Either party
may seek equitable relief, including temporary restraining orders or
injunctions, in addition to all other remedies, for breach or threatened
breach of Section 1.7 (Exclusivity), Section 2 (Ownership; License Grant)
or Section 7 (Confidentiality). Before a party initiates legal action
against the other arising from the Agreement (except to seek injunctive or
equitable relief or to otherwise protect its Intellectual Property
Rights), the Parties shall first make good faith and reasonable efforts to
resolve the matter within four (4) weeks of the date of referral. The laws
of California, excluding California's choice of law rules, and applicable
federal U.S. laws shall govern the Agreement. Each party agrees to submit
to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Santa
Xxxxx County, California. The parties specifically exclude from
application to the Agreement the United Nations Convention on Contracts
for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information
Transactions Act. The parties hereto are and shall remain independent
contractors and nothing herein shall be deemed to create any agency,
partnership, or joint venture relationship between the parties. Neither
party shall be deemed to be an employee, agent, partner or legal
representative of the other nor shall either party have any right or
authority to make any representation or create any obligation on behalf of
the other party. Neither party shall be liable for failing or delaying
performance of its obligations (except for the payment of money) resulting
from any condition beyond its reasonable control, including but not
limited to, governmental action, acts of terrorism, earthquake, fire,
flood or other acts of God, labor conditions, power failures, and Internet
disturbances. The failure to require performance of any provision shall
not affect a party's right to require performance at any time thereafter;
nor shall waiver of a breach of any provision constitute a waiver of the
provision itself. If any provision is adjudged by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable, invalid or otherwise contrary to law,
such provision shall be interpreted so as to best accomplish its intended
objectives and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and
effect. In the event of any termination or expiration of the Agreement,
Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.4, 3.2, 5, 6, 7 (including the NDA), 8.3, 8.4, 9 and
10 shall survive termination. Neither party shall be liable to the other
for damages resulting solely from

treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

termination as provided for under the Agreement. This GSA and related
Order Form(s) (including any exhibits thereto), and any terms located at
Google URLs referenced pursuant to the Agreement (which are incorporated
herein by reference), constitute the entire agreement with respect to the
subject matter hereof, and any terms contained in any related purchase
orders) or other documents pertaining to the subject matter of the
Agreement shall be null and void. The Agreement supersedes any other prior
or collateral agreements, whether oral or written, with respect to the
subject matter hereof. Any amendments or addenda to the Agreement must (i)
be in writing; (ii) refer to the Agreement; and (iii) be executed by an
authorized representative of each party. Any changes to the Agreement not
approved in writing by the Google Legal Department shall not be binding on
Google. The Agreement shall be construed as if both parties jointly wrote
and prepared it. The Agreement may be executed in counterparts, including
facsimile counterparts. In the event of conflict between the terms and
conditions under this GSA and any Order Form, the Order Form shall govern
with respect to such conflict. In the event of conflicting Order Forms,
any subsequent Order Form shall take precedence over any prior conflicting
Order Form.
10. Parent Guarantee. Bulldog Holdings, Inc. hereby guarantees the performance
of Customer under this Agreement and will cause its affiliates to comply
with the terms of this Agreement applicable to Customer, including,
without limitation, the provisions of Sections 1.1.1, 1.1.2 and 1.7.

EXHIBIT G
GOOGLE MUTUAL NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
Google will assist Customer in providing Customer with content-targeted
compensated linked advertisements for display on the Sites, Additional Sites and
Co-branded Sites through the CTAP (the "PURPOSE"). In connection with this, each
party has or may disclose to the other party certain confidential technical and
business information. The parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of such
information, in accordance with the following terms:
1. The Confidential Information disclosed under the Agreement ("CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION") includes all information disclosed at any time on or after May 1,
2003 concerning either party's business including, but not limited to, all
tangible, intangible, visual, electronic, present, or future information such
as: (a) trade secrets; (b) financial information, including pricing; (c)
technical information, including research, development, procedures, algorithms,
data, designs, and know-how; (d) business information, including operations,
planning, marketing interests, and products; and (e) the terms of any agreement
and the discussions, negotiations and proposals related to any agreement. The
Agreement also includes Confidential Information acquired during any facilities
tours.
2. The Parties receiving Confidential Information (each, a "RECIPIENT") will
have a duty to protect Confidential information (a) if it is clearly and
conspicuously marked as "confidential" or the equivalent; or (b) if it is
identified by the Discloser as confidential before, during, or promptly after
presentation or communication.
3. A Recipient will use the Confidential Information only for the Purpose
described above. A Recipient will use the same degree of care, but no less than
a reasonable degree of care, as the Recipient uses with respect to its own
similar information to protect the Confidential Information and to prevent (a)
any use of Confidential Information not authorized in this Agreement, (b)
dissemination of Confidential Information to any employee or third party
contractor of Recipient without a need to know, or (c) communication of
Confidential Information to any third party. Furthermore, Confidential
Information may only be disseminated to an employee or third party contractor of
the Recipient if that employee or third party contractor has signed an agreement
with either of the parties containing confidentiality provisions substantially
similar to those herein.
4. Both parties agree not to issue or release any articles, advertising,
publicity or other matter relating to any Confidential Information (including
the fact that a meeting or discussion has taken place between the parties) or
mentioning or implying the name of the other party, except with the advanced
review and written approval of the other party.
5. This Exhibit G imposes no obligation upon a Recipient with respect to
Confidential Information that (a) was known to the Recipient before receipt from
the Discloser, (b) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the
Recipient; (c) is rightfully received by the Recipient from a third party
without a duty of confidentiality; (d) is independently developed by the
Recipient without a breach of the Agreement: (e) is disclosed by the Recipient
with the
SF1:555061.2
[*] Indicates that certain information in this exhibit has been omitted and
filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
Discloser's prior written approval: or (f) is required to be disclosed by
operation of the law, provided that the Recipient immediately notifies the
Discloser of the legal obligation and provides the Discloser a reasonable
opportunity to seek a protective order (or the equivalent) from the court or
other legal or governmental authority issuing the process.
6. EACH DISCLOSER WARRANTS THAT IT HAS THE RIGHT TO DISCLOSE ITS CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION. NO OTHER WARRANTIES ARE MADE. ALL CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
CONTAINED HEREIN IS PROVIDED "AS IS".
7. The terms and conditions of this Exhibit G shall survive with respect to
Confidential Information that is disclosed before the termination or expiration
of the Agreement.
8. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, a Recipient's duty to protect
Confidential Information ceases when the information is no longer confidential,
as set forth in paragraph 5 of this Exhibit G. A Recipient, upon Discloser's
written request, will promptly return all Confidential Information received from
the Discloser, together with all copies, or certify in writing that all such
Confidential Information and copies thereof have been destroyed. Regardless of
whether the Confidential Information is returned or destroyed, the Recipient may
retain an archival copy of the Discloser's Confidential Information in the
possession of outside counsel of its own choosing for use only in the event that
a dispute arises hereunder and only in connection with that dispute.
9. No Party acquires any intellectual property rights under this Exhibit G
(including but not limited to patent, copyright, and trademark rights) except as
set forth in the Agreement.
10. Each Party acknowledges that damages for improper disclosure of Confidential
information may be irreparable; therefore, the injured Party is, entitled to
seek equitable relief, including injunction and preliminary injunction, in
addition to all other remedies.
This Exhibit G does not create any agency or partnership relationship.
