Web Advertising Agreement Web Advertising Rates The Advertiser shall prepay for the advertising space based on the selected billing cycle at the rates in effect at the Closing Date for the month in which the advertisement is scheduled to appear. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, the AOS reserves the right to increase space rates and charges for special services at any time during the term of this Contract. Advertisers can lock in their rates so long as they maintain uninterrupted advertising. All terms and conditions contained in the Web Advertising Media Kit, as in effect from time to time, are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. All insertion orders will auto renew according to the selected billing cycle to avoid disruption, but advertisers may cancel auto-renewal any time by contacting the AOS prior to the next billing period. The 50% print advertising discount Affiliated Societies recieve is not applicable to web advertising. Submission of Copy The Advertiser shall be responsible for the submission of all Web advertising materials to the AOS on or prior to the first of the month. Advertising cannot be cancelled or changed after the Closing Date. The Advertiser is responsible for securing permission to use all trademarks, copyrights, service marks, service names and trade names that appear in the Advertiser s Web advertisement. Cancellation Policy Cancellation by the AOS The AOS reserves the right to edit, reject or cancel the Advertiser s Web advertisement at any time for any reason. In the event the Advertiser s Web advertisement is cancelled by the AOS, the AOS will provide the appropriate refund applicable to paid but unpublished Web advertisements. Cancellation by the Advertiser The Advertiser shall have the right to cancel their web advertisement at any time by contacting the AOS in writing. Once an ad is published, no refunds are permitted for the current billing cycle and paid ads will continue running until the end of the billing period. Advertisers must cancel 72 hours prior to the subsequent billing period if they do not wish to advertise in that billing period. Conservation Policy The AOS, in congruence with its stated conservation aims and with the full approval of the AOS Trustees, prohibits advertisements for wild-collected orchids and orchid-collecting tours in the pages of Orchids. By submitting Web advertisements for orchid species, vendors are thereby asserting that plants advertised are either artificially propagated (from seed or meristem) or are nurserygrown divisions of legally acquired stock. The AOS reserves the right to screen and reject all Web advertisements that are contrary to the spirit of this conservation policy. Indemnification The Advertiser acknowledges that Web advertising is subject to the AOS s approval and that the AOS has the responsibility and also the right to exercise control over content of its Web site in keeping with its aims to extend knowledge, production, use, perpetuation and appreciation of orchids. Consequently, the AOS reserves the right unilaterally to reject Web advertisements for any reason at any time, and also to cancel Web advertising on its Web site for any reason at any time, and provide the appropriate refund applicable to paid but unpublished Web advertisements. Placement of Web advertisements will be at AOS s discretion, although the Advertiser s preference will be met whenever possible. The AOS does not accept Web advertising that appears to be libel, misleading, deceptive or in conflict with AOS policies. Publication of a Web advertisement does not mean endorsement or approval by the AOS of any product or service advertised, the Advertiser or the claims made. The AOS is not responsible for any claims made in a Web advertisement appearing on its Web site. The Advertiser assumes liability for all Web advertising content, including text presentation and illustrations. The Advertiser shall indemnify and hold the published harmless from claims, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations, including actions for libel, br of warranty, negligence, product liability, misrepresentation, fraud, violation of privacy, plagiarism, copyright infringement, and any other actions whatsoever that may arise from display of such advertisement. The advertiser shall reimburse the AOS for all losses, damages, deficiencies, costs and expenses (including interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys fees [at trial and on appeal] and disbursements) (collectively, Losses ) incurred by the AOS in settlement of claims or in satisfaction of judgments obtained by reason of display of the Advertiser s advertising copy. Advertiser claims for errors will be decided on a case-by-case basis with discounts offered for the Web advertisement in question or on the Advertiser s next order, in the AOS s sole discretion, provided that the AOS determines that the AOS made the error and that the Advertiser can prove that the error seriously and negatively affected advertising results.

This Contract may be modified only by a written instrument executed by all of the parties.
