and print out coupons. Agreements are for the length indicated and
host provider will update and change ad within agreement
The

2. Submission of Advertisement. The Customer will
submit its Advertisement to the Host Provider according
to Host Provider's published Advertising Submission Specifications
available at http://www.ttcap.biz (the "Specifications").

which is not in proper format, any Advertised Site which
is not functional or which Host Provider considers unsuitable
for linking to the Host Site. If Host Provider rejects Customer's
Advertisement and the Customer is unable or unwilling to
comply with Host Provider's submission guidelines, then
this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and Customer's
sole remedy shall be to obtain a refund of any prepaid advertising
fees.
3. Prices & Payment.
(a) Advertising Fee. The Advertising Fee compensates
Host Provider for setting up, placing and operating the
Customer's Advertisement on the Host Site during the Term.
The Advertising Fee is submitted with the Advertisement
Insertion Order. The stated price will remain in effect
during the stated Term.

issues for the Host Site as it deems necessary or helpful
in the normal course of business.
5. Proprietary Rights. Each party (or identified
third party) owns its respective Web site and all material
and content contained in it. Nothing herein grants the other

prior written consent. Nothing herein imposes any confidentiality

of posting bond to prevent any actual or threatened violation
of such provisions.

or necessary supplies, governmental action, computer viruses
and incompatible or defective equipment, software or services
not supplied by Host Provider. Nothing herein enlarges any
warranty or diminishes any disclaimer provided in Section

or editorially control the content of Customer's Advertisement
and the Advertised Site. Host Provider reserves the right
to request the removal of information in the Advertisement
or Advertised Site brought to its attention which it deems
detrimental to the Host Site or any person. Customer agrees
not to include in the Advertisement or the Advertised Site
any material which violates or infringes the rights of any
person or which a reasonable person would consider abusive,
profane or offensive, which is defamatory or harassing,
or which violates or encourages others to violate any applicable
law. Customer will not disseminate so-called "chain
letters," pornographic or obscene movies or graphic
images. To protect itself, Host Provider may without liability
actively cooperate with and furnish identifying and supporting
information to any person likely to be harmed by Customer's

from all liability and expense (including attorney fees)
arising from any claim to the contrary.

services.
