tuscan- the board here didn't work (for the masses) before b/c the monitors would not allow OT posts, or simple "how ya doin?s". Let's face it , most posters want that more than deep discourse and links. imo there is no optimal solution, message board wise, except to maintain a board for the serious core and not worry about the rest. Why I have gone the way I have. My site will have a (obviously moderated) forum feature, but that can never have the realtime appeal of a MB.
I would like to see this board resurrected something like the DCUT board here, with some visual and link interest. Considering the quality of some of the good boards here, i-Hub would be my first choice.
here's a list of some good boards here, by example:
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)
Aggressive Investment Strategies (Rivet) (AIS)
Archie's Corner (POW)
Break Out Trading (Bill Panetta)
Breaking News
Dicut, Inc. (DCUT)
EZtradin Picks
Five and Under
Hot Biotechs (HOTBIO)
Market Sense and Sentiment (MKTSS)
MMCLUB
OTC BB Pulse: Charting and Darting (OTCCD)
Post S-8 Companies
SwingTrade Member Forum (SWING)
Guess I'll focus on my site for now and let the rest sort out on own. re the site, tuscan may have some questions for you soon buddy, as I'm finally getting down to the nitty gritty.
ADZR looking to make new 52 hi, I would think.

ADZR "letter" to shareholders
http://ragingbull.lycos.com/mboard/boards.cgi?board=ADZR&read=9920
.005 = .05 lol, bite my tongue
too many subpennies I guess lol
great day all!
.03 ??
no crystal ball here, and tho we all know pps will erode until favorable news/filings is released, I don't see .03s coming and I'll tell you why. When pps quickly eroded from .10 to .03s last fall, it was entirely different situation. There was NO VOLUME in this stock. Then, ANY S8 dilution or other selling created harsh downward pressure- and SLAM down it went. A million shares a week then was incredible pressure. Now, even tho volume becoming anemic again (good thing here actually suggesting a bottom), minor dilution/selling just won't have that kind of effect. Just look at this week, GNET dumps off 500,000-800,000 or so shares and we essentially are still holding support at .075 Last fall that sell volume would have had a much greater effect- and it did.
the chart speaks volumes...
http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=ADZR,uu[w,a]dacayyay[dd][pd20,2!i!f][vc60][iLo14!Lf]&...
but I will add (from looking at the chart)...
1- I do hope the .075 support holds, because there is a dinstinct lack of buying volume on the chart from .075 down to .005, suggesting we would move to that point quickly if .07 doesn't hold. The .065 bids we see on LII are likely very thin.
2- notice the big A/D spikedown in late May- suggesting some very serious selling into that price rise. Maybe not too many sellers left that haven't already exited (but again slow erosion without news) Note also how the A/D has stabilized since- ie there is "equilibrium" here.
3- We are again entering the overSOLD range on the RSI & other stochastic indicators. We are spending a lot of time in overSOLD territory and that kind of pressure is not sustainable. Price will cycle up I just hope its before any breach of the .075 support, because a move to the .08s would be a nice launching pad for #4.
4- If a solid base can be carved here, I agree with other posters that solid news will set new highs. That is exactly why I am here for what I believe will be Round IV (kinda like Rocky lol) I don't agree as posted on RB that we're in for months, could be months, days, hours, minutes... only crystal knows.
5- I was in error that support in the .09s would hold, so my latest .09s buy-in is in the red. I'm not happy about this, but I'll stick to my analysis here and not sell looking to buy in lower, tho I won't fill the rest of my position likely until the stochastics bottom for good. My error in judgement looks to be that GNET & HILL still had sell orders on book.
GNET absent so far today- maybe letting the bid "recharge" maybe the S8 mini-wave is thru. Oh... to have that crystal ball, guys...
Think I'm out for the day, got some stucco work to play with, I'll check later to see if anyone noticed anything on GNET or HILL...interesting HILL on the bid now.

cobrajet11- good point
we all need to take a closer look at these recent filings, but from what is handy in my brain...
there are more than a few "investment banking", "equity", and "consulting" agreements still on the table, I feel shareholders could really use a good company update. I know a lot of these "deals" are old, out-of-force, but still appear in the filings- and WILL.. forever actually.
While I guess the Spartan deal and the FE deal you bring up are still viable, all I can say for sure is that there is no 8K filing to my knowledge that provides any followup info on any of the proposed financing deals. In other words,- no deal closed (but?)
More specific to your post:
1- the agreement you cite was Mar 31, the 8 mil shares apparently in escrow since waiting execution as collateral. share price then was still .02/.03- curious the .105 price, as you mention. I think .02 to .105 WOULD be unduly enriched, so maybe the loan can only execute in the .10 price range...
8 mil shares @ .025 collaterizes only $200,000 (minus fees)
8 mil shares @ .105 collaterizes $840,000 $ for $
2- the Form 4 purchase you mention was only 5000 shares and according to another poster who spoke with company (I did not confirm) it was installment #1 on the 5% of first 3mil revenues stock repurchase plan. Explains the token purchase.
3- the reason for share swap pretty clear, right? Financier can't take restricted shares for collateral, so company needed UNrestricted shares at the ready.
4- I think but not sure that any block of shares, by agreement, can be transferred at a discount (or premium) to the prevailing market price at date of transfer- so bid/ask could be .50 and company could still transfer block at .105 cash value. You give me shares, I give you cash.
5- we think company's immediate cash needs are $500,000 and $2-5 mil longer term- but this info is dated and from unconfirmed web site (now deleted) . Some of you may have seen it but I told ADZR I wouldn’t repost it.
6- delay in financing could be on either end, right?
lenders waiting for more confirmation on contract revenue stream OR... Cardona waiting for better share price so that x number of shares leverages more cash. We just don't know- and IMO these kinds of info are very much appropriate for shareholder updates etc...
7- we wait for 8K info on financing- we wait what’s new lol
Shareholders need to know what is current status of the financing and investment banking deals in play.
Reading this ADZR???

sorry for earlier confusion
info has been changed
http://www.otcbb.com/asp/dailylist_detail.asp?mkt_ctg=OTCBB&d=07/21/2003
thx ref- the Sarnoff MOA is there as well
and thx to Chuck- something to gnaw on in the meantime.
ref, looks like the Boeing agreement is largely to spell out the terms re an RFP (request for proposal) anticipated from Autometrics current or expected client list. Remember the earlier references to "federal intelligence agencies" re Boeing-A. The language here confirms the MOA relates to security products/services. I guess that dispels the "vending machine contract" spec some bashers raised lol.
It appears the three signed agreements (the "contract" a 4th?)all are unique in marketing intent. IMO nets have been thrown wide. We'll see.
got my original wish- that the 10K include the MOAs.
Not to pump, but in light of the current doldrums, a bit of encouragement I am thinking-
that is...
broad speculation is slowly narrowing to a focus that is becoming increasingly undeniable to those who can connect the dots.

RB- the Competitive Media thing
is related to a claim against Chuck's brother John Cardona for his allegedly violating a non-competitive clause when he left CM. May also be related to fact he no longer serves as ADZR pres (but as director). The non-competitive clause was for one year, so should be a moot issue now. I fail to see how CMedia could possibly show damages. Sick the Sarnoff dogs to em, I say!
Also noticed some other folk participated in the exodus from CMedia to Adzone Internbational (ne Interactive, ne Research).
Re your question about just HOW proprietary NetGet algorithms/IA might be-- if only marginally so, why didn't Sanoff, Boeing, Raytheon sign with someone else? think about it.
I'll pass on any comment technical re steg, because I do not meet your qualification criteria (have I ever RB? lol).
I have my thoughts and I'll continue to mull them and hold close to the vest for now. I will say folks can narrow their spec if they look to WHERE the budget money is going- follow the money trail peeps, you may be surprised what you find at the end...

the_ref0- on patents
Good question, I should clarify. Not a matter of gut feel, more a matter of systematic DD and the logic that patents would be in the works at some point (and company has said so). My recent patent searches were looking for anything relating to the original NetGet system , or anything re products from Sarnoff, Autometric or Raytheon indicating recent product development that might involve NetGet.
You should know that anything relating to the May PR re ThreatTrax or CodeTrax would NOT be showing in the database now even if filed in May. Published Patent Applications are entered in the db every Thursday. Today’s (7/10/03) AppFT’s were FILED in January and February- so you can see there is a 4-5 months delay in the publishing of the patent filing.
Of course, I would think ADZR will PR the FILING itself, as other companies do, even tho we won’t be able to view the published AppFT just yet. If efforts began in May as they say, I would suspect the filing to be imminent. Kevin Messina has experience with technical patents, and the mentors at Sarnoff might be involved.
This is all just my own reasoning, I am not an expert or anything but I have been able to surmise this sequence:
1) ADZR retains a patent attorney or registered agent, patent search completed, and a patent description is written.
2) The patent app is filed with the USPTO, accompanied by filing fees (about $1,000+).
3) Application is given a serial # and a series code- it IS official from the date it is filed (insert PR here!).
4) 4-5 months later, the app is given a patent application number and entered into the “Published Patent Application database”. Full text and drawings are then viewable.
5) 2-5 yrs later the “application” is moved to the “Patent Grant Database”.
here’s an example of a recent data-mining patent app, pretty dry stuff.
http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsea...
here’s the search page, grants on the left, apps on the right:
http://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html
I just hope the Cardona spin-doctors realize that 2 or 3 large spent on a solid patent app would be worth its weight in gold on the PR market- what a FINE follow-thru PR after a contract revenues PR… but again just my own spec.
Btw- I agree with ragsisme, look for the 10KSB after the close Friday. Of interest to me will be attached exhibits on the Boeing and Sarnoff "agreements" (I hope). Any Revs just a bonus at this point IMO.
As always this is OTC and therefore RISK, but my mantra here is a simple one until disproven-
Raytheon, Boeing, Sarnoff
Raytheon, Boeing, Sarnoff
Raytheon, Boeing, Sarnoff…
I'm out for the week, my accumulation is complete, tho some of you may get better tomorrow (.077=50dma = da bounce?)

by the numbers, a good entry point
at/approaching strong trendline support at 50dma AND very overSOLD at this point- a nice tandem.
http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=ADZR,uu[w,a]dacayyay[db][pb50!c20!f][vc60][iLh5,5!Lk7]&a...
this has been heading towards support at 50dma and has/nearly has arrived, 50 dma = .08 (actually .077). Support at the 20ema failed on lack of any bid volume (read lack of news), but the 50 trendline is statistically more significant.
Also we are in a very overSOLD condition, actually unprecedented even on the 1 year chart. Look at the %R- the last two times this issue was this oversold by that indicator, the subsequent rises were 500% and 130%. These rises also matched with support at the 20ema, when the company elected to release MO-driving PRs. JMO- but it would seem someone at the company may watch the technicals- certainly an odd coincidence.
A third approaching support is the lower region of the Bollingers. The textbook buy signals just don't get any more clear than this- especially on an issue where a potential PR release can be a strong driver.
Please ignore all above if you are TA-phobic.
Just trying to add what I see in the tea leaves fwiw.

LJ- the Raytheon contract
was an exhibit attached (at the very end) to the July 2002 10K.
Look for the Sarnoff and Boeing-Autometric agreements to be similarly attached to the upcoming 10K. I wonder if they'll be "software licensing agreements" as well? but I suspect the Sarnoff agree might be a bit more, with the mentor/protege arrangement...
I like this filings link because it has table of contents format to allow quick browsing of the filings.

Guess where I'll be jumping in first when the 10K hits.
btw- notice the link to knobias up in the options box on the general message page! nice.
yesterday's PR a bit odd but I suspect it's all about keeping that first paragraph in the news- the part about recently signed revenue contract with major defense contractor.

in any way responsible for Integrator's actions or omissions.

this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be
effective when either served by personal delivery or upon

in this Agreement
15.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State
of New York, U.S.A., without regard to its principles of
conflicts of law and the parties agree to submit to the
jurisdiction of the appropriate state or federal court located
in the State of New York.
15.5 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their
successors and assigns. However, this Agreement shall not be

consent, which Adzone may withhold in its absolute discretion.
Any assignment of this Agreement by Integrator without such
consent shall be null and void.

15.7 Audit Rights. At Adzone's own expense, Adzone shall be
entitled to an annual audit of Integrator's records by an
independent firm of certified public accountants, certifying
that the P.O.(s) provided to Adzone under this Agreement are a
true and fair representation of the payments due to Adzone as
required by this Agreement. Selection of an independent
auditor will be at the sole discretion of Adzone. In the event
the audit proves that the P.O.(s) provided and fees paid to
Adzone were deficient, Integrator agrees to reimburse Adzone
for the deficiency as well as any late charges. In the event
the deficiency is deficient by ten percent (10%) or more,
Integrator agrees to reimburse Adzone for the deficiency as
well as any late charges and the reasonable costs of the
accountants conducting the audit.
15.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to

remaining provisions of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or
affecting the validity or unenforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

of the attached Exhibits (which Exhibits are incorporated by
reference), contains the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and

EXHIBIT A
Authorized Licensed Products
1. AdZone Online Custom Research Systems
AdZone Research, Inc., based in Riverhead, NY has developed a system for
tracking events that occur on web pages. Currently they track events from 30
different countries. Actual results can range from short-term postings, to
"hidden in plain sight" links, to modified segments in graphics or sound files,
to unauthorized additional scripting in the text-based headers, etc.
The AdZone NetGet(TM) technology is based on an extremely open platform that is
composed of four integrated elements:
Crawler
Artificial Intelligence agent (AI)
Database
Report generator
The Crawler was specifically designed to be language independent and format
transparent (i.e. enhanced with steganographic capabilities). After it's initial
pass, a baseline is established against which all future deviations are both
identified and stored. Furthermore, it immediately engages the AI agent to
follow all the links it finds on targeted web pages. These are then aggregated
and analyzed to determine if historical data needs to be re-examined (to re-open
prior trails) and to "learn" new strategies on a going-forward basis. Finally,
these two elements (Crawler and AI agent) are able to both cycle on a
non-standard, yet effectively continuous, basis so that the target sites do not
see unusual levels of activity. The system has the capability to "peer" within
all types of content (graphics, multimedia, scripts, etc.) to look for
information, which may be hidden therein.
All the subsequent data is stored in a specially designed database structure
composed of fifty-plus interwoven sub-bases. This facilitates the operation of
the AI agent while providing a panoply of reports that can be generated.
In its current application (the analysis of competitive advertising messages on
the Internet) the system tracks 500,000 URLs, but is fully scalable to 30
million for anti-terrorism applications.
The end user will receive data and custom tools, as required, for each
individual situation along with integration and/or export functionality to
second level data manipulation software such as Excel, Access, FoxPro, Progress,
Oracle, KMVS (Raytheon), etc.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. General. "You" means the single end-user customer organization signing this
Agreement. Your license shall extend to your affiliates, if so provided in the
Program Description and to the extent so provided, so long (and only so long) as
they remain under your control (in the sense that you own or control, directly
or indirectly, stock or other interest in the affiliate representing more than
fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate stock or other interest entitled to vote on
decisions reserved to a vote by owners of such stock or other interest).
2. License Grant. Unless otherwise provided in the Program Description, This
Agreement permits you to use one copy of the specified version of the Adzone
software product identified in the Program Description ("Program") on the single
computer for which the appropriate License fee was paid, provided the Program is
in use on only one computer at any time by only the number of users for which
you have paid a License fee. Concurrent use on two or more computers is only
authorized to the extent that you have acquired such authorization by the
payment of the appropriate license fees. If the anticipated number of users of
the Software will exceed the number of applicable Licenses, then you must have a
reasonable mechanism or process in place to assure that the number of persons
using the Software concurrently does not exceed the number of Licenses.
Unless otherwise provided in the Program Description, you may not use the
Program(s) to process accounts or records or to generate output data for the
direct benefit of, or for purposes of rendering services to, any other business
entities or organizations.
3. Object Code. Unless otherwise provided in the Program Description, the
Program(s) are provided in and may be used in machine-readable object code form
only.
4. Back-up Copies. You may make one (1) copy of each Program in
machine-readable, object code form, for nonproductive backup purposes only,
provided that you reproduce and include Adzone's copyright notice and
proprietary legend on each backup copy. Each backup copy must be stored in a
safe and secure location. All copies of all Programs must be accounted for upon
Adzone's request.
5. End-User Materials. End-User Materials that accompany the Program(s) are
provided solely to support your authorized use of the Program(s). You may not
use, copy, modify, or distribute the End-User Materials, or any copy,
adaptation, transcription, or merged portion thereof, except as expressly
authorized by Adzone by separate written agreement.
6. Term of License. The Term of your license for each Program is indicated in
the applicable Program Description. Upon expiration of the Term, each license is
renewable for successive renewal terms of the same length, at your option and
upon payment of Adzone's then-current license fee.
7. Delivery. Adzone will use its best efforts to deliver each Program in
accordance with the Delivery Schedule included in the applicable Program
Description. Adzone will not be responsible for delays caused by events or
circumstances beyond its reasonable control. You are responsible for obtaining
computers and operating systems compatible with the Program(s), as shown in the
technical specifications for each Program. Installation shall be complete when a
copy of the Program has been installed on your computer system at the Designated
Location and the Program is activated after receipt of the applicable activation
code by Adzone. Completion of installation shall constitute your acceptance of
the license for the Program, but shall not affect any warranties still in effect
under Paragraph 16.
8. License Fees. You agree to pay the License Fees for your license of a Program
upon shipment of the Program. If additional License Fees are specified for a
Program (e.g, annual license fees or incremental license fees for multi-copy or
LAN licenses), they shall be paid as provided in the applicable Program
Description.
9. Other Charges. License fees do not include installation services, travel and
living expenses for, installation and training, file conversion costs, optional
products and services, consulting services requested by End-User, or the costs
of any recommended hardware. You agree to pay such fees and costs, when and as
the services are rendered and the expenses incurred, as invoiced by Adzone.
Adzone reserves the right to require prepayment or advance deposit for services
or expenses in some instances. You are also responsible for sales or use taxes
and state or local property or excise taxes associated with your licensing,
possession, or use of the Program(s).
10. Late Charges. If any fee or cost is not paid within thirty (30) days after
it is due, Adzone may, at its option, charge interest at a rate of one and
one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month (eighteen percent (18%) per annum) or, if
less, the highest rate allowed by applicable law) from the date such fee or
charge first became due.
11. Maintenance and Consulting. In order for Adzone to provide software
maintenance for the Program, you must purchase yearly maintenance at Adzone's
current commercial list rates, unless otherwise stated in the attached Program
Description. Adzone shall have no responsibility to maintain the Program unless
you purchase annual maintenance provided by Adzone. In the event that you
request consulting services that are beyond the scope of this Agreement and the
Software Maintenance Agreement, Adzone may provide such services or recommend
appropriate outside consultants. In all cases, fees for such services will be
charged at Adzone's standard rates and you will be responsible for paying such
fees, plus any necessary travel and lodging and per diem expenses if services
are provided more than fifty (50) miles from the nearest service location.
12. Customer Responsibilities. You are responsible for the following actions:
a) Determining whether the Program(s) will achieve the results you desire;
b) Procuring, installing, and operating computers and operating systems to
run the Program(s);
c) Providing a proper environment and proper utilities for the computers
on which the Program(s) operate, including an uninterrupted power
supply;
d) Selecting and training your personnel so they can operate computers and
so they are familiar with the accounts and records that serve as input
and output for the Program(s); and
e) Establishing adequate operational back-up provisions in the event of a
defect or malfunction that renders the Program(s) or the computer
systems on which they run inoperative.
Adzone reserves the right to charge additional service fees if an operator seeks
assistance with respect to such basic information or any other matters not
directly relating to the operation of the Program(s). Adzone does not hold
itself out as a professional expert and adviser regarding your computer or
information needs. Adzone is not responsible for obsolescence of the Program(s)
that may result from changes in your requirements.
13. Proprietary Protection. Adzone shall have sole and exclusive ownership of
all right, title, and interest in and to the Program(s) and User Materials, all
copies thereof, and all modifications and enhancements thereto (including
ownership of all copyrights and other intellectual property rights pertaining
thereto), subject only to the right and license expressly granted to you herein.
This Agreement does not provide you with title or ownership of the Program(s),
but only a right of limited use.
14. Limitations on Use, Etc. You may not use, copy, modify, or distribute the
Program(s) (electronically or otherwise), or any copy, adaptation,
transcription, or merged portion thereof, except as expressly authorized by
Adzone, an applicable Program Description, or a separate written agreement
signed by Adzone. You may not reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise
translate the Program(s). Your license may not be transferred, leased, assigned,
or sublicensed without Adzone's prior written consent, except for a transfer of
the Program(s) in their entirety to a successor in interest of your entire
business who assumes the obligations of this Agreement. You may not install the
Program(s) anywhere but the Designated Location(s) without Adzone's prior
written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), provided that you may
transfer the Program(s) to another location temporarily in the event of an
interruption of computer operations at the Designated Location(s). You authorize
Adzone to enter your premises in order to inspect the Program(s) during regular
business hours to verify compliance with the terms of this Agreement.
15. Data. You acknowledge that data conversion is subject to the likelihood of
human and machine errors, omissions, delays, and losses, including inadvertent
loss of data or damage to media, that may give rise to loss or damage. Adzone
shall not be liable for any such errors, omissions, delays, or losses, unless
caused by its willful misconduct. You are responsible for adopting reasonable
measures to limit the impact of such problems, including backing up data, and
adopting procedures to ensure the accuracy of input data; examining and
confirming results prior to use; and adopting procedures to identify and correct
errors and omissions, replace lost or damaged media, and reconstruct data. You
are also responsible for complying with all local, state, and federal laws
pertaining to the use and disclosure of any data.
16. Warranty. For your benefit alone and for a period of ninety (90) days,
Adzone warrants that the Program, when operated with the equipment configuration
and in the operating environment specified by Adzone, will perform substantially
in accordance with the technical specifications included or referred to in the
applicable Program Description. The ninety (90) day period shall commence on the
date of Software installation and code number activation or thirty days from the
date of shipment, whichever is sooner. Adzone does not warrant that the Program
will be error-free in all circumstances. In the event of any defect or error
covered by such warranty, you agree to provide Adzone with sufficient detail to
allow Adzone to reproduce the defect or error. As your exclusive remedy for any
defect or error in the Program(s) covered by such warranty, and as Adzone's
entire liability in contract, tort, or otherwise, Adzone will correct such error
or defect at Adzone's facility by issuing corrected instructions, a restriction,
or a bypass. If Adzone is unable to correct such defect of error after a
reasonable opportunity, Adzone will refund the license fees paid for such
Program. However, Adzone is not responsible for any defect or error not reported
during the warranty period or any defect or error in a Program you have
modified, misused, or damaged. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS PARAGRAPH,
ADZONE SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR THE PROGRAM(S) OR ANY SERVICES PROVIDED,
INCLUDING ANY LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE; ADZONE MAKES AND YOU RECEIVE NO
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER COMMUNICATION; AND ADZONE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
17. Limitation of Liability; Exclusion of Consequential Damages. The cumulative
liability of Adzone to you for all claims relating to the Program(s) and any
services rendered hereunder, in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall not exceed
the total amount of all license fees paid to Adzone for the relevant Program(s)
or services within the prior year. This limitation shall not apply to the
indemnification provided in Paragraph 18. In no event shall either party be
liable to the other for any consequential, indirect, special, or incidental
damages, even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such
potential loss or damage. The foregoing limitation of liability and exclusion of
certain damages shall apply regardless of the success or effectiveness of other
remedies.
18. Indemnification. If a third party claims that the Program(s) infringe any
U.S. patent, copyright, or trade secret, Adzone will (as long as you are not in
default under this Agreement or any other agreement with Adzone) defend you
against such claim at Adzone's expense and pay all damages that a court finally
awards, provided that you promptly notify Adzone in writing of the claim, and
allow Adzone to control, and cooperate with Adzone in, the defense or any
related settlement negotiations. If such a claim is made or appears possible,
Adzone may, at its option, secure for you the right to continue to use the
Program(s), modify or replace the Program(s) so they are noninfringing, or, if
neither of the foregoing options is available in Adzone's judgment, require you
to return the Program(s) for a credit equal to the previously paid license fees
for the Program. However, Adzone has no obligation for any claim based on a
modified version of the Program(s) or their combination, operation, or use with
any product, data, or apparatus not provided by Adzone. THIS PARAGRAPH STATES
ADZONE'S ENTIRE OBLIGATION TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT.
19. Default. Should you fail to pay any fees or charges due hereunder or fail to
carry out any other obligation under this Agreement or any other agreement with
Adzone, Adzone may, at its option, in addition to other available remedies,
terminate this Agreement or disable the Program(s), provided that it first gives
you fifteen (15) days' prior notice in order to permit you to cure your default.
20. Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement as a result of your default,
or upon expiration of the Term of your license unless renewed (but, in such
case, only as to the Program(s) whose licenses have expired), your license will
terminate, and you are required to return or destroy, as requested by Adzone,
all copies of the Program(s) in your possession (whether modified or
unmodified), and all other materials pertaining to the Program(s), including all
copies thereof. You agree to certify your compliance with such requirement upon
Adzone's request.
21. Notices. All notices or other communications required to be given hereunder
shall be in writing and delivered either personally or by U.S. mail, certified,
return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and addressed as provided in this
Agreement or as otherwise requested by the receiving party. Notices delivered
personally shall be effective upon delivery and notices delivered by mail shall
be effective upon their receipt by the party to whom they are addressed.
22. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York as it applies to a
contract made and performed in such state.
23. Modifications and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified except by a
writing signed by authorized representatives of both parties. A waiver by either
party of its rights hereunder shall not be binding unless contained in a writing
signed by an authorized representative of the party waiving its rights. The
nonenforcement or waiver of any provision on one (1) occasion shall not
constitute a waiver of such provision on any other occasions unless expressly so
agreed in writing. It is agreed that no use of trade or other regular practice
or method of dealing between the parties hereto shall be used to modify,
interpret, supplement, or alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement.
