of this Exhibit, as well as the Verio Reseller Agreement before we will register
domain names for you or your customers. Likewise, your customers must agree
to the same terms listed in this Exhibit. It is your responsibility to inform
your clients of this Exhibit prior to requesting that a domain name be registered
on their behalf. |
| How will I be billed for new domain registrations? |
| Just like the other services you receive
from us, you will be billed directly for ALL domain names
registered through us. This makes it your responsibility
to collect prompt payment from your clients for the domains they request to
be registered with us. You will be billed according to the existing billing
terms and pricing. |
| How do you handle domain name renewals? |
As a service to you, we will automatically
renew all domain name registrations for the same number
of years stated in the domain's initial registration.
The
renewal of the registrations takes place 3 days prior to the expiration date.
This automated renewal process can be halted
by telephone, email or fax. Failure to opt out of
the automated renewal process, or to remove the domain registration will result
in the renewal of said domain name and your account will be invoiced appropriately.
Such invoices are not subject to our dispute policy.
