DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION AGREEMENT

.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info and .name registrations only

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

General

1. Introduction
This domain name registration agreement ('Registration Agreement') is submitted by you, the applicant for, and on registration, the licence holder of a domain name (the "Registrant") to Melbourne IT Limited ACN 073 716 793 ('Melbourne IT') for the purpose of registering a domain name on the Internet. Clauses 1-19 set out the general provisions governing all domain name registrations under this Registration Agreement. Clauses 20 - 22 set out the additional provisions specific to .com, .net and .org domain name registrations. Clause 23 sets out the additional provisions specific to multi-lingual domain name registrations. Clause 24 sets out the additional provisions specific to .biz, .info and .name domain name pre-registrations and registrations. If this Registration Agreement is accepted by Melbourne IT, Registrant agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Registration Agreement in respect of any .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info or .name domain name pre-registrations or registrations submitted by Registrant to Melbourne IT.

2. Terminology
Melbourne IT is an accredited Registrar of Internet Corporation For Assigned Names and Numbers ('ICANN'). Verisign Global Registry Services is the registry administrator responsible for administering the .com and .net domain name registry. Public Interest Registry is the registry administrator responsible for administering the .org domain name registry. NeuLevel, Inc is the registry administrator responsible for administering the .biz domain name registry. Afilias Ltd is the registry administrator responsible for administering the .info domain name registry. Global Name Registry Ltd is the registry administrator responsible for administering the .name domain name registry.

3. Licensing of Domain Name
Registrant remains the responsible contracting party under this Registration Agreement, even if Registrant licenses use of the domain name to a third party.

4. Dispute Policy
Registrant agrees, as a condition to submitting this Registration Agreement, and if the Registration Agreement is accepted by Melbourne IT, that on successful registration of any domain name under this Agreement the Registrant is bound by Melbourne IT's current dispute policy and the dispute policy procedures. Registrant acknowledges that the dispute policy described in this clause 4 is the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "URDP Dispute Policy"). Registrant agrees that in respect of the pre-registration or registration of .biz, .info and .name domain names, other dispute policies may apply as specified by the registry administrator of those domain names from time to time, as described in more detail in clause 24A(4) for .biz, in clause 24B(2) for .info and in clause 24C(3) for .name (the "Other Dispute Policies"). Registrant agrees that Melbourne IT may change or modify the UDRP Dispute Policy, incorporated by reference herein, at any time. Registrant agrees that Registrant's maintaining the registration of a domain name after changes or modifications to the UDRP Dispute Policy become effective constitutes Registrant's continued acceptance of these changes or modifications. Registrant agrees that any dispute relating to registration or use of its domain name (and which is not the subject of the Other Dispute Policies) will be subject to the provisions specified in the UDRP Dispute Policy. Without prejudice to other potentially applicable jurisdictions, Registrant submits to the jurisdiction of the courts as described in clause 18. The UDRP Dispute Policy can be viewed at http://www.melbourneit.com.au/policies/gtlddispute.php3. The UDRP Dispute Policy procedure can be viewed at http://www.melbourneit.com.au/policies/gtldrules.php3.

5. Agents
Registrant agrees that if this Registration Agreement is completed by an agent for the Registrant, such as an Administrative Contact/Agent, the Registrant is nonetheless bound as a principal by all terms and conditions herein, including the relevant domain name dispute policy.

6A Additional Provisions for Domain Names Managed by Registrant

8. Breach
Registrant agrees that failure to abide by any provision of this Registration Agreement or the relevant domain name dispute policy (including, without limitation, any domain name dispute policy that applies during a pre-registration period) may be considered by Melbourne IT to be a material breach and that Melbourne IT may provide a notice, describing the breach, to the Registrant. If, within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice, the Registrant fails to provide evidence, which is reasonably satisfactory to Melbourne IT, that it has not breached its obligations, then Melbourne IT may delete Registrant's registration of the domain name. Any such breach by a Registrant shall not be deemed to be excused simply because Melbourne IT did not act earlier in response to that, or any other, breach by the Registrant. Notice may be given by mail, facsimile or electronic means.

9. No Warranty by Melbourne IT
Registrant agrees that neither a pre-registration application nor a registration of a domain name grants any legal rights of ownership of the relevant domain name, nor does it confer immunity from objection to the pre-registration, registration or use of the domain name.

Registrant agrees, in addition to the indemnity above, to keep indemnified, release and hold harmless Melbourne IT and the registry administrator, their directors, officers, employees and agents, against any claim for damage or loss arising from any failure of Registrant's domain name to be renewed by Registrant.

10.2 Registrant warrants that, to the best of Registrant's knowledge and belief, neither its registration of a domain name nor the manner in which it is directly or indirectly used infringes the legal rights of a third party. Breach of this warranty will constitute a material breach.

11. Revocation
Registrant agrees that Melbourne IT may delete a Registrant's domain name if any information required to be supplied by the Registrant under this Registration Agreement, or subsequent modification(s) thereto, is false or misleading, or conceals or omits any information Melbourne IT would likely consider material to its decision to approve this Registration Agreement.

12. Right of Refusal
Registrant acknowledges that the registry administrator or ICANN policy may provide that registration of certain domain names is prohibited. Melbourne IT, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to refuse to approve the Registration Agreement for any Registrant. Registrant agrees that the submission of this Registration Agreement does not obligate Melbourne IT to accept this Registration Agreement. Registrant agrees that Melbourne IT is not liable for loss or damage that may result from Melbourne IT's refusal to accept this Registration Agreement.

13. Change in Registrar
Registrant agrees that it can change its Registrar for an existing domain name only in accordance with registry administrator policy. Registrant agrees it may not change its Registrar for a period of sixty (60) days after initial registration of the domain name with Melbourne IT.

14. Suspension, Cancellation, Transfer

14.1 to correct mistakes by Registrar or the registry administrator in registering the domain name;
14.2 for the resolution of disputes concerning the domain name; or
14.3 in case of arbitration or court proceedings being commenced with respect to the rights to the domain name.

14.4 any activity that infringes the intellectual property rights or other rights of third parties;
14.5 any activity that defames or disparages any person; or
14.6 any otherwise illegal or fraudulent activity.

15. Non payment
Registrant agrees that failure to pay any fee for its domain name when due (as evidenced for example by, without limitation, Registrant's credit card company notifying Melbourne IT of Registrant disputing the payment of, or refusing to pay such Registration fee, or where the Registrant's credit card payment has been declined or reversed) will entitle Melbourne IT to immediately transfer the relevant domain name from the Registrant to Melbourne IT, at its sole discretion. Registrant acknowledges that Melbourne IT will own all rights of the registered domain name holder in respect of any domain name transferred to Melbourne IT under this clause 15, including the right to sell the domain name to a third party. Melbourne IT may in its sole discretion re-transfer the relevant domain name to the Registrant subject to the Registrant's payment of any outstanding Registration fee, and Registrant's payment of Melbourne IT's then current re-transfer fee.

16. Severability
Registrant agrees that the terms of this Registration Agreement are severable. If any term or provision is declared invalid, it shall not affect the remaining terms or provisions, which shall continue to be binding.

17. Entirety
Registrant agrees that this Registration Agreement and the relevant domain name dispute policy (including, without limitation, any domain name dispute policy that applies during a pre-registration period) is the complete and exclusive agreement between Registrant and Melbourne IT regarding the registration of Registrant's domain name.

19. General

19.1 Nothing in this Agreement may be construed as creating the relationship of agency partnership or joint venture between the parties.

4. DOMAIN NAME DISPUTE POLICY
If you reserved or registered a .biz domain name through the registry administrator, you agree to be bound by our current domain name dispute policy that is incorporated herein and made a part of this Agreement by reference. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with that policy. In addition, you hereby acknowledge that you have read and understood and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the following documents, as they may be amended from time to time, which are hereby incorporated and made an integral part of this Agreement:

i. The Start-up Trademark Opposition Policy ("STOP"), available at http://www.neulevel.biz/ardp/docs/stop.html; and

ii. The Restrictions Dispute Resolution Criteria and Rules, available at http://www.neulevel.biz/ardp/docs/rdrp.html.

The STOP sets forth the terms and conditions in connection with a dispute between a Registrant of a .biz domain name ("Registrant") with any third party (other than registry administrator or registrar) over the registration or the use of a .biz domain name registered by Registrant that is subject to the Intellectual Property Claim Service. The Intellectual Property Claim Service is a service introduced by Registry administrator to notify a trademark or service mark holder ("Claimant") that a second-level domain name has been registered in which that Claimant claims intellectual property rights. In accordance with the STOP and its associated Rules, those Claimants will have the right to challenge registrations through independent ICANN-accredited dispute resolution providers. The RDRP sets forth the terms under which any allegation that a domain name is not used primarily for business or commercial purposes shall be enforced on a case-by-case, fact specific basis by an independent ICANN-accredited dispute provider. None of the violations of the Restrictions will be enforced directly by or through Registry administrator. Registry administrator will not review, monitor, or otherwise verify that any particular domain name is being used primarily for business or commercial purposes or that a domain name is being used in compliance with the SUDRP or UDRP processes.
