14. Data Access Service and Proprietary Information.

     14.1 Transfer Agent has developed a data access service that enables the Customer to access the Customer’s shareholder records maintained on Transfer Agent’s computer system through the Internet or remote access, as the case may be (the “Data Access Service”). The Customer wishes to use such Data Access Service subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Therefore, the Customer and Transfer Agent agree as follows:

     14.2 Access to Shareholder Data.

     The Service provided to the Customer pursuant to this Agreement shall include granting the Customer access to the Shareholder, Customer and proxy information (“Shareholder Data”) maintained on the records database for the purpose of examining, maintaining, editing, or processing transactions with respect to Shareholder Data.

     14.3 Procedures for Access.

     To use the Data Access Service, the Customer must access through the Internet or remote terminal, as the case may be, pursuant to the procedures provided by Transfer Agent. Such access is accomplished by entering a unique Customer identification (“Customer ID(s)”) and passwords (“Password(s)”) assigned to the Customer by Transfer Agent. Each Customer ID and Password assigned to the Customer is for use only by the Customer. The Customer shall establish and maintain reasonable security and control over all such Customer IDs and Passwords. Transfer Agent shall maintain reasonable security and control over each Customer ID. After Transfer Agent assigns the Customer a Password, the Customer shall change the Password. The Customer recognizes that Transfer Agent does not have knowledge of the Password, which is selected by the Customer and is within the Customer’s exclusive control after the necessary change. The Customer may change any Password thereafter at any time. Customer agrees to notify Transfer Agent immediately if any employee of Customer granted

access to the Data Access Service leaves the employ of the Customer, in order to enable Transfer Agent to terminate such employee’s access.

     14.4 Proprietary Information.

     The Customer acknowledges that the databases, computer programs, screen formats, report formats, interactive design techniques, and documentation manuals furnished to the Customer by the Transfer Agent as part of the Data Access Service to access Shareholder Data maintained by the Transfer Agent on data bases under the control and ownership of the Transfer Agent or other third party constitute copyrighted, trade secret, or other proprietary information (collectively, “Proprietary Information”) of substantial value to the Transfer Agent or other third party. In no event shall Proprietary Information be deemed Shareholder Data. The Customer agrees to treat all Proprietary Information as proprietary to the Transfer Agent and further agrees that it shall not divulge any Proprietary Information to any person or organization except as may be provided hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Customer agrees for itself and its employees and agents:

	(a)		to refrain from copying or duplicating in any way the Proprietary Information, other than to print out pages reflecting Shareholder Data to provide to shareholders or for Customer’s internal use;
	(b)		to refrain from obtaining unauthorized access to any portion of the Proprietary Information, and if such access is inadvertently obtained, to inform Transfer Agent in a timely manner of such fact and dispose of such information in accordance with Transfer Agent’s instructions;
	(c)		to refrain from causing or allowing the Proprietary Information from being retransmitted to any other computer facility or other location, except with the prior written consent of Transfer Agent;
	(d)		that the Customer shall have access only to those authorized transactions agreed upon by the parties; and
	(e)		to honor all reasonable written requests made by Transfer Agent to protect at Transfer Agent’s expense the rights of Transfer Agent Proprietary Information at common law, under federal copyright law and under other federal or state law.

Each party shall take reasonable efforts to advise its employees of their obligations pursuant to this Section 14.

     14.5 Content. If the Customer notifies the Transfer Agent that any part of the Data Access Service does not operate in material compliance with the user documentation provided by the Transfer Agent for such service, the Transfer Agent shall endeavor in a timely manner to correct such failure. Organizations from which the Transfer Agent may obtain certain data included in the Services are solely responsible for the contents of such data and the Customer agrees to make no claim against the Transfer Agent arising out of the contents of such third party data, including, but not limited to, the accuracy thereof.

     14.6 Transactions. If the transactions available to the Customer include the ability to originate electronic instructions to the Transfer Agent in order to (i) effect the transfer or movement of Shares or direct CSS to transfer cash or (ii) transmit Shareholder information or other information, then in such event the Transfer Agent shall be entitled to rely on the validity and authenticity of such instructions without undertaking any further inquiry as long as such instructions are undertaken in conformity with security procedures established by the Transfer Agent from time to time.

15. Confidentiality.

     15.1 Covenant. The Transfer Agent and the Customer agree that they will not, at any time during the term of this Agreement or after its termination, reveal, divulge, or make known to any person, firm, corporation or other business organization, any customers’ lists, trade secrets, cost figures and projections, profit figures and projections, or any other secret or confidential information whatsoever, whether of the Transfer Agent or of the Customer, used or gained by the Transfer Agent or the Customer during performance under this Agreement. The Customer and the Transfer Agent further covenant and agree to retain all such knowledge and information acquired during and after the term of this Agreement respecting such lists, trade secrets, or any secret or confidential information whatsoever in trust for the sole benefit of the Transfer Agent or the Customer and their successors and assigns. The above prohibition of disclosure shall not apply to the extent that the Transfer Agent must disclose such data to its sub-contractor or agent for purposes of providing services under this Agreement.

     15.2 Request for Records. In the event that any requests or demands are made for the inspection of the Shareholder records of the Customer, other than request for records of Shareholders pursuant to standard subpoenas from state or federal government authorities (e.g., in divorce and criminal actions), the Transfer Agent will endeavor to notify the Customer and to secure instructions from an authorized officer of the Customer as to such inspection. The Transfer Agent expressly reserves the right, however, to exhibit the Shareholder records to any person whenever it is advised by counsel that it may be held liable for the failure to exhibit the Shareholder records to such person or if required by law or court order.

16. Term and Termination.

     16.1 Term. The Initial Term of this Agreement shall be three (3) years from the date first stated above unless terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 16. Unless a terminating party gives written notice to the other party sixty (60) days before the expiration of the Initial Term this Agreement will renew automatically from year to year (“Renewal Term”). Sixty (60) days before the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term the parties to this Agreement will agree upon a Fee Schedule for the upcoming Renewal Term. If no new fee schedule is agreed upon, the fees will increase as set forth in Section 7.2.

     16.2 Early Termination. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, should Customer desire to move any of its Services provided by the Transfer Agent hereunder to a successor service provider prior to the expiration of the then current Initial or Renewal Term, or without the required notice period, the Transfer Agent shall make a good faith

effort to facilitate the conversion on such prior date, however, there can be no guarantee that the Transfer Agent will be able to facilitate a conversion of Services on such prior date. In connection with the foregoing, should Services be converted to a successor service provider, or if the Customer is liquidated or its assets merged or purchased or the like with another entity which does not utilize the services of the Transfer Agent, the fees payable to the Transfer Agent shall be calculated as if the services had remained with the Transfer Agent until the expiration of the then current Initial or Renewal Term and calculated at existing rates on the date notice of termination was given to the Transfer Agent, and the payment of fees to the Transfer Agent as set forth herein shall be accelerated to the date prior to the conversion or termination of services. Section 16.2 shall not apply if the Transfer Agent is terminated for cause under Section 16.4(a) of this Agreement.

     16.3 Expiration of Term. After the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term whichever currently in effect, should either party exercise its right to terminate, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses or costs associated with the movement of records and material will be borne by the Customer. Additionally, the Transfer Agent reserves the right to charge for any other reasonable expenses associated with such termination and a de-conversion/transition fee in an amount equal to 25% of the aggregate fees incurred by Customer during the immediately preceding twelve (12) month period, provided, however, such fee shall in no event be less than five thousand dollars.

     16.4 Termination.

     This Agreement may be terminated in accordance with the following:

(a) at any time by any party upon a material breach of a representation, covenant or term of this Agreement by any other unaffiliated party which is not cured within a period not to exceed thirty (30) days, or ten (10) business days in the case of a party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, after the date of written notice thereof by one of the other parties;

(b) by Transfer Agent, at any time, in the event that during the term of this Agreement, a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is filed by or against Customer or a trustee or receiver is appointed for any substantial part of Customer’s property (and in a case of involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding, there is entered an order for relief, or order appointing a receiver or some similar order or decree and Customer does not succeed in having such order lifted or stayed within sixty (60) days from the date of its entry), or Customer makes an assignment of all or substantially all of its property for the benefit of creditors or ceases to conduct its operations in the normal course or business; and

     16.5 Records. Upon receipt of written notice of termination, the parties will use commercially practicable efforts to effect an orderly termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Transfer Agent will deliver promptly to Customer, in machine readable form on media as reasonably requested by Customer, all Shareholder and other records, files and data supplied to or compiled by Transfer Agent on behalf of Customer.

17. Assignment.

17.1 Affiliates. The Transfer Agent may, by providing notice no less than 60 days as set forth in Section 19.1, but without further consent of the Customer assign its rights and obligations hereunto to any affiliated transfer agent registered under Section 17A(c)(2) of the Exchange Act.

17.2 Sub-contractors. Transfer Agent may, without further consent on the part of Customer, subcontract with other subcontractors for telephone and mailing services as may be required from time to time; provided, however, that the Transfer Agent shall be as fully responsible to the Customer for the acts and omissions of any subcontractor as it is for its own acts and omissions.

18. Unaffiliated Third Parties.

     Nothing herein shall impose any duty upon the Transfer Agent in connection with or make the Transfer Agent liable for the actions or omissions to act of unaffiliated third parties such as, by way of example and not limitation, airborne services, the U.S. mails and telecommunication companies, provided, if the Transfer Agent selected such company, the Transfer Agent shall have exercised due care in selecting the same.

19. Miscellaneous.
