INTRODUCTION
------------

AOL and MP each desires to enter into an interactive marketing relationship
whereby AOL shall promote and distribute certain internet landing pages referred
to (and further defined) herein as the AOL Jump Pages and an interactive site
referred to (and further defined) herein as the Affiliated MP Site. This
relationship is further described below and is subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement. Defined terms used but not defined in
the body of the Agreement shall be as defined on Exhibit B attached hereto.

TERMS
-----

1. PROMOTION, DISTRIBUTION AND MARKETING.
-------------------------------------

1.1. AOL Promotion of Affiliated MP Site; Flexibility of Promotions. AOL
--------------------------------------------------------------
shall provide MP with the promotions for the AOL Jump Pages and the
Affiliated MP Site described on Exhibit A attached hereto
(collectively referred to herein as the "Promotions"). AOL reserves
the right (at its sole discretion) to (i) substitute for the
Promotions to be delivered in a particular Level other promotions (in
the same Level) in the same or different areas of the AOL Properties,
and (ii) (x) substitute Impressions in one Level for those in another
Level at an exchange ratio equal to the ratio of the respective CPM
rates listed in Exhibit A for each Level (e.g., one Level I Impression
can be substituted for the number of Level II Impressions that is
calculated by dividing the CPM for Level I by the CPM for Level II).
In addition, AOL reserves the right to redesign or modify the
organization, structure, "look and feel," navigation and other
elements of the AOL Network at any time.

1.2 Impressions Commitment. During the Initial Term, AOL shall deliver
----------------------
[*] Impressions to MP through the Promotions (the "Impressions
Commitment"). AOL shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver
the Impressions Commitment in accordance with the monthly targets
specified in Exhibit A; provided, however, that in the event that AOL
-------- -------
delivers, in any quarter, less than [*] percent (*%) of the relevant
portion (i.e., the sum of the monthly targets for the respective
quarter) of the Impressions Commitment to be delivered in such
quarter pursuant to Exhibit A hereto (a "Quarter Shortfall"), then
such Quarter Shortfall shall be added to the Impressions target for
the subsequent quarter (the "Revised Impressions Target"); provided,
--------
further, that in the event that AOL fails to meet the Revised
-------
Impressions Target in the next subsequent quarter (a "Secondary
Shortfall"), then the Impressions Commitment shall be increased by
[*] times the amount of any such Secondary Shortfall. Any shortfall
in Impressions at the end of any such quarter shall not be deemed a
breach of the Agreement by AOL. With respect to the Impressions
targets specified on Exhibit A hereto, AOL shall not be obligated to
provide in excess of any Impressions target amounts in any year. In
the event AOL provides an excess of any annual Impressions target
amounts in any year, the Impressions target for the subsequent year
shall be reduced by the amount of such windfall.

* Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to certain information
contained in this document. Confidential portions have been omitted from the
public filing and have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

EXECUTION VERSION

In the event there is (or will be in AOL's reasonable judgment) a
shortfall in Impressions as of the end of the Initial Term (a "Final
Shortfall"), AOL shall provide MP, as its sole remedy, with one of the
following (at AOL's sole discretion): (i) additional comparable
promotions equal to the amount of the Final Shortfall; (ii)
advertising placements through Run of Service Advertising on the AOL
Properties which have a total value, based on the CPM rates specified
in Exhibit A, equal to the value of the Final Shortfall (determined by
multiplying the percentage of Impressions that were not delivered by
the total, guaranteed payments provided for in Section 3.1 of this
Agreement); or (iii) a refund equal to the value of the Final
Shortfall.

1.3 Content of Promotions on AOL Network. Until the launch of the AOL
------------------------------------
Jump Pages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Promotions
for MP shall link to the Affiliated MP Site and shall promote only the
Services described on Exhibit D. Following the launch of such AOL
Jump Pages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Promotions
for MP shall link only to the AOL Jump Pages and shall promote only
the Services described on Exhibit D. The specific MP Content to be
contained within the Promotions (including, without limitation,
advertising banners and contextual promotions) (the "Promo Content")
shall be determined by MP, subject to AOL's technical limitations, the
terms of this Agreement and AOL's then-applicable policies relating to
advertising and promotions; provided, however, that the Promo Content
-------- -------
shall not contain any reference whatsoever to used cars. MP shall
submit in advance to AOL for its review a quarterly online marketing
plan with respect to the Promotions linking to the AOL Jump Pages.
The Parties shall meet in person or by telephone at least monthly to
review operations and performance hereunder, including a review of the
Promo Content to ensure that it is designed to maximize performance.
MP shall consistently update the Promo Content no less than twice per
month. Except to the extent expressly described herein, the specific
form, placement, duration and nature of the Promotions shall be as
determined by AOL in its reasonable editorial discretion (consistent
with the editorial composition of the applicable screens).

------------------------------------------
detail in Exhibit C, MP shall promote AOL as a preferred Interactive
Service and shall promote the availability of the Affiliated MP Site

AOL members to link to the AOL Jump Pages (during the term of this
Agreement) or to the Affiliated MP Site (until the launch of the AOL
Jump Pages and during the three months following termination of this
Agreement). AOL grants MP the right to use such Keyword Search Term

this Agreement.

2. AFFILIATED MP SITE.

2.1. Content. MP shall make available through the AOL Jump Pages the
-------
comprehensive offering of Services and Content described on Exhibit D
to this Agreement, and MP shall make available through the Affiliated
MP Site the Services and Content described on Exhibit D-1 to this
Agreement. Except as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties, the
AOL Jump Pages (i) shall contain only Content that is directly related
to the Services listed on Exhibit D; provided, however, that MP shall
-------- -------
be entitled to include on any AOL Jump Page a navigational bar that
includes a tab for used cars and/or a tab for business-to-consumer new
car and used car auctions (i.e., as an option or options in a "drop-
down box" format) (collectively, the "Navigation Bar Tab"); provided,
--------
further, that any such
-------

CONFIDENTIAL

EXECUTION VERSION

Navigation Bar Tab shall not enable a user to link to any used car
listings, nor shall any such reference contain any creative content or
messaging related to the purchase or sale of any used car; and (ii)
shall not contain any third-party Services, services, programming or
other Content. If MP adds Content or Services to any Jump Page that
AOL reasonably determines is not related to the Services and Content
listed on Exhibit D, or if MP adds Content or Services to the
Affiliated MP Site that AOL reasonably determines is not related to
the Services and Content listed on Exhibit D-1 (collectively,
"Problematic Services or Content"), AOL shall have the immediate right
to block AOL User access to the Affiliated MP Site or to any such AOL
Jump Page. In the event that MP fails to remove such Problematic
Services or Content (or, in the alternative, to implement a mechanism
capable of blocking AOL User access to such Problematic Services or
Content) within thirty (30) days of notification by AOL of the
existence of such Problematic Services or Content on the Affiliated MP
Site or any AOL Jump Page (as the case may be), AOL shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon the expiration of
such thirty (30) day period. All sales of Services through the
Affiliated MP Site shall be conducted through either a direct sales
format or referral Services. MP shall review, delete, edit, create,
update and otherwise manage all Content available on or through the
Affiliated MP Site in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. MP
shall ensure that the AOL Jump Pages do not in any respect promote,
advertise, market or distribute the products, services or content of
any other Interactive Service, or any entity reasonably construed to
be in competition with any third party with which AOL has an exclusive
or premier relationship. MP also shall ensure that the Affiliated MP
Site does not in any respect promote, advertise, market or distribute
the products, services or content of any other Interactive Service,
and that the Content on the Affiliated MP Site shall be competitive in
all material respects with the Content of online providers of the New
Car Services, and that such Content is updated on a regular and
frequent basis. The Affiliated MP Site shall contain the Content that
is directly related to the Services listed on Exhibit D-1.

2.2. Production Work. Except as agreed to in writing by the Parties
---------------
pursuant to Section 10 of Exhibit F hereto, MP shall be responsible
for all production work associated with the AOL Jump Pages and the
Affiliated MP Site, including all related costs and expenses.

2.3. Technology. MP shall take all reasonable steps necessary to conform
----------
its promotion and sale of Services through the Affiliated MP Site and
the AOL Jump Pages to the then-existing technologies identified by AOL
which are optimized for the AOL Service and which AOL may implement to
facilitate purchase of products or services by AOL Users through the
Affiliated MP Site. AOL shall be entitled to require reasonable
changes to the Content (including, without limitation, the features or
functionality) within any linked pages of the Affiliated MP Site to
the extent such Content will, in AOL's good faith judgment, adversely
affect any operational aspect of the AOL Network. AOL reserves the
right to review and test the Affiliated MP Site from time to time to
determine whether the site is compatible with AOL's then-available
client and host software and the AOL Network.

2.4. Product Offering. MP shall ensure that the Affiliated MP Site
----------------
includes all of the Services and other Content (including, without
limitation, any features, functionality or technology) that are then
made available by or on behalf of MP through any Additional MP
Channel; provided, however, that (i) such inclusion shall not be
-------- -------
required where it is commercially or technically impractical to either
Party (i.e., inclusion would cause either Party to incur substantial
incremental costs); and (ii) the specific changes in scope, nature
and/or offerings required by such inclusion shall be subject to AOL's
review and approval and the terms of this Agreement.

2.5. Pricing and Terms. MP shall ensure that: (i) the prices (and any
-----------------
other required consideration) for Services in the Affiliated MP Site
do not exceed the prices for the Services or substantially similar
Services offered by or on behalf of MP through any

CONFIDENTIAL

EXECUTION VERSION

Additional MP Channel; (ii) the terms and conditions related to
Services in the Affiliated MP Site are no less favorable in any
respect to the terms and conditions for the Services or substantially
similar Services offered by or on behalf of MP through any Additional
MP Channel; and (iii) both the prices and the terms and conditions
related to Services in the Affiliated MP Site are reasonably
competitive in all material respects with the prices and terms and
conditions for the Services or substantially similar Services offered
by any online provider of the Services set forth on Exhibit D hereto
through any Interactive Site.

2.6. Exclusive Offers/Member Benefits. MP shall generally promote through
--------------------------------
the Affiliated MP Site any special or promotional offers generally
made available by or on behalf of MP through any Additional MP
Channel. In addition, MP shall promote through the AOL Jump Pages (or
the Promotions) on a regular and consistent basis special offers
exclusively available to AOL Users (the "AOL Exclusive Offers"). MP
shall, at all times, feature at least [*] AOL Exclusive Offer for
AOL Users. For example, MP shall offer [*] contest per quarter
featuring a new car to be awarded to each winner of each such
quarterly contest. Each AOL Exclusive Offer made available by MP shall
provide a substantial member benefit to AOL Users, either by virtue of
a meaningful price discount, product enhancement, unique service
benefit or other special feature. MP shall provide AOL with reasonable
prior notice of AOL Exclusive Offers so that AOL can market the
availability of such AOL Exclusive Offers in the manner AOL deems
appropriate in its editorial discretion.

2.7. Operating Standards. MP shall ensure that each of the Affiliated MP
-------------------
Site and the AOL Jump Pages complies at all times with the standards
set forth in Exhibit E. To the extent site standards are not
established in Exhibit E with respect to any aspect or portion of the
Affiliated MP Site or any AOL Jump Page (or the Services or other
Content contained therein), MP shall provide such aspect or portion at
a level of accuracy, quality, completeness, and timeliness which meets
or exceeds prevailing standards in the online industry for providers
of the services set forth on Exhibit D hereto. In the event MP fails
to comply with any material term of this Agreement or any Exhibit
attached hereto, AOL shall have the right (in addition to any other
remedies available to AOL hereunder) to decrease the promotion it
provides to MP hereunder (and to decrease or cease any other
contractual obligation hereunder) until such time as MP corrects its
non-compliance (and in such event, AOL shall be relieved of the
proportionate amount of any promotional commitment made to MP by AOL
hereunder corresponding to such decrease in promotion).

2.8. Advertising Sales. MP shall not permit or authorize (i) any
-----------------
Advertisements on the AOL Jump Pages for (a) any third party Content
or Services related to the purchase or sale of used cars, (b) any
Interactive Service other than AOL, and (c) those categories in which
AOL has exclusive or premier arrangements with its partners or (ii)
any Advertisements on the Affiliated MP Site for any Interactive
Service other than AOL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, MP may place promotions for any auto manufacturer and
any new car dealer on both the AOL Jump Pages and the Affiliated MP
Site. In addition to the foregoing requirements, all Advertisements
permitted to be placed on the AOL Jump Pages or the Affiliated MP Site
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall comply with AOL's then-
applicable advertising policies. Any failure by MP to comply with the
terms of clause (i)(a) or clause (ii) of this Section 2.8 shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and AOL shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement. In the event of any failure to
comply with clause (i)(c) of this Section 2.8, MP shall have three (3)
business days to cure such failure, after which period AOL shall have
the right to terminate this Agreement.

2.9. Premier Privileges. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AOL shall not
------------------
place Advertisements for any of the MP Competitors in the AOL Auto
Center, the AOL Auto Web Center, the AOL Shopping Auto and Classifieds
Department and the CompuServe Car Club. In each

case on the AOL Properties during the Initial Term (but in any case,
subject to all preexisting agreements of AOL or its affiliates prior
to the Effective Date (e.g., AOL's agreement with Cendant)).

2.10. Traffic Flow. MP shall take reasonable efforts to ensure that AOL
------------
traffic is either kept within the Affiliated MP Site or the AOL Jump
Pages, or is channeled back into the AOL Network (with the exception
of advertising links sold and implemented pursuant to the Agreement);
provided, however, that MP shall be required to implement a channeling
-------- -------
function from the Jump Pages back to the AOL Network within two (2)
months following the Effective Date. The Parties shall work together
on implementing mutually acceptable links from the AOL Jump Pages back
to the AOL Service. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that MP
shall not be obligated to place any links back to the AOL Service on
the Affiliated MP Site.

2.11. Connecting the Affiliated MP Site. MP shall be responsible for all
---------------------------------
communications, hosting and connectivity costs and expenses associated
with the Affiliated MP Site and the AOL Jump Pages, and shall pay for
all of the costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the
development and linking to the AOL Network of the AOL Jump Pages and
(ii) the development and linking to the Affiliated MP Site of the AOL
Jump Pages. The Parties shall mutually agree upon the optimal means
for connecting the AOL Jump Pages to the AOL Network and the AOL Jump
Pages to the Affiliated MP Site. If the Parties determine that a
dedicated, high-speed connection is necessary to maintain quick and
reliable transport of information to the AOL Jump Pages (or from the
AOL Jump Pages to the Affiliated MP Site), MP shall pay for all
technology-related and production-related costs and expenses
associated with the implementation of such a high-speed connection.
For the avoidance of doubt, all costs and expenses to be borne by MP
in accordance with this Section 2.11 shall be in addition to the
payments to be made by MP pursuant to Section 3 hereof.

penalties and interest, as well as any costs associated with the
collection or withholding thereof, including attorneys' fees.

3.4. Reports.
-------

3.4.1. Usage Reports. AOL shall provide MP with standard monthly
-------------
usage information related to the Promotions (e.g. a schedule
of the Impressions delivered by AOL at such time, click-
through and other usage information) which are similar in
substance and form to the reports provided by AOL to other
interactive marketing partners similar to MP.

3.4.2 Fraudulent Transactions. To the extent permitted by
-----------------------
applicable law, MP shall provide AOL with an prompt report of
any fraudulent order, including the date, screen name or email
address and amount associated with such order, promptly
following MP obtaining knowledge that the order is, in fact,
fraudulent.

4. TERM; RENEWAL; TERMINATION.
--------------------------

4.1 Term; Mutual Early Termination Right. Unless earlier terminated as
------------------------------------
set forth herein, the initial term of this Agreement shall be two (2) years
from the Effective Date (the "Initial Term"). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at
any time during the Initial Term following the twelve (12) month
anniversary of the Effective Date upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to the other Party.

4.2 Termination for Breach. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in
----------------------
this Agreement, either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time in
the event of a material breach of the Agreement by the other Party which
remains uncured after thirty (30) days written notice thereof to the other
Party (or such shorter period as may be specified elsewhere in this
Agreement); provided, however, that AOL shall not be required to provide
-------- -------
notice to MP in connection with MP's failure to make any payment to AOL
required hereunder, and the cure period with respect to any scheduled
payment shall be fifteen (15) days from the date for such payment provided
for herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a material
breach of a provision that expressly requires action to be completed within
an express period shorter than thirty (30) days, either Party may terminate
this Agreement if the breach remains uncured after written notice thereof
to the other Party.

4.3 Termination for Bankruptcy/Insolvency. Either Party may terminate
-------------------------------------
this Agreement immediately following written notice to the other Party if
the other Party (i) ceases to do business in the normal course, (ii)
becomes or is declared insolvent or bankrupt, (iii) is the subject of any
proceeding related to its liquidation or insolvency (whether voluntary or
involuntary) which is not dismissed within ninety (90) calendar days or
(iv) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

4.4 Termination on Change of Control. In the event of (i) a Change of
--------------------------------
Control of MP resulting in control of MP by an Interactive Service or (ii)

4.5 Press Releases. Each Party shall submit to the other Party, for its
---------------
prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, any press release or any other public statement ("Press Release")
regarding the transactions contemplated hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, either Party may issue Press Releases and other disclosures as
required by law without the consent of the other Party and in such event,
the disclosing Party shall provide at least

CONFIDENTIAL

EXECUTION VERSION

five (5) business days prior written notice of such disclosure. The failure
by one Party to obtain the prior written approval of the other Party prior
to issuing a Press Release (except as required by law) shall be deemed a
material breach of this Agreement for which there is no adequate cure. In
such event, the non-breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon
written notice to the other Party.

5. MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE/ARBITRATION.
--------------------------------

5.1 Management Committee. The Parties shall act in good faith and use
---------------------
commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resolve within ten (10)
business days any claim, dispute, claim, controversy or disagreement (each
a "Dispute") between the Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries,
affiliates, successors and assigns under or related to this Agreement or
any document executed pursuant to this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby. If the Parties cannot resolve the Dispute within such
time frame, the Dispute shall be submitted to the Management Committee for
resolution. For ten (10) days following submission of the Dispute to the
Management Committee, the Management Committee shall have the exclusive
right to resolve such Dispute; provided, further that the Management
-------- -------
Committee shall have the final and exclusive right to resolve Disputes
arising from any provision of the Agreement which expressly or implicitly
provides for the Parties to reach mutual agreement as to certain terms. If
the Management Committee is unable to amicably resolve the Dispute during
such ten (10) day period, then the Management Committee shall consider in
good faith the possibility of retaining a third-party mediator to
facilitate resolution of the Dispute. In the event the Management
Committee elects not to retain a mediator, the dispute shall be subject to
the resolution mechanisms described below. "Management Committee" shall
mean a committee made up of a senior executive from each of the Parties for
the purpose of resolving Disputes under this Section 5.1 and generally
overseeing the relationship between the Parties contemplated by this
Agreement. Neither Party shall seek, nor shall be entitled to seek,
binding outside resolution of the Dispute unless and until the Parties have
been unable amicably to resolve the Dispute as set forth in this Section
5.1 and then, only in compliance with the procedures set forth in this
Section 5.

5.2 Arbitration. Except for Disputes relating to issues of (i)
------------
proprietary rights, including but not limited to intellectual property and
confidentiality, and (ii) any provision of the Agreement which expressly or
implicitly provides for the Parties to reach mutual agreement as to certain
terms (which shall be resolved by the Parties solely and exclusively
through amicable resolution as set forth in Section 5.1), any Dispute not
resolved by amicable resolution as set forth in Section 5.1 shall be
governed exclusively and finally by arbitration. Such arbitration shall be
conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in Washington,
D.C. and shall be initiated and conducted in accordance with the Commercial
Arbitration Rules ("Commercial Rules") of the AAA, including the AAA
Supplementary Procedures for Large Complex Commercial Disputes ("Complex
Procedures"), as such rules shall be in effect on the date of delivery of a
demand for arbitration ("Demand"), except to the extent that such rules are
inconsistent with the provisions set forth herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parties may agree in good faith that the Complex Procedures
shall not apply in order to promote the efficient arbitration of Disputes
where the nature of the Dispute, including without limitation the amount in
controversy, does not justify the application of such procedures.

5.3 Selection of Arbitrators. The arbitration panel shall consist of
-------------------------
three (3) arbitrators. Each Party shall name one (1) arbitrator within ten
(10) days after the delivery of the Demand. The two (2) arbitrators named
by the Parties may have prior relationships with the naming Party, which in
a judicial setting would be considered a conflict of interest. The third
arbitrator, selected by the first two, should be a neutral participant,
with no prior working relationship with either Party. If the two
arbitrators are unable to select a third arbitrator within ten (10) days, a
third neutral arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA from the panel of
commercial arbitrators of any of the AAA Large and Complex Resolution
Programs. If a vacancy in the arbitration panel occurs after the hearings

CONFIDENTIAL

EXECUTION VERSION

have commenced, the remaining arbitrator or arbitrators may not continue
with the hearing and determination of the controversy, unless the Parties
agree otherwise.

5.4 Governing Law. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Secs. 1-16, and
--------------
not state law, shall govern the arbitrability of all Disputes. The
arbitrators shall allow such discovery as is appropriate to the purposes of
arbitration in accomplishing a fair, speedy and cost-effective resolution
of the Disputes. The arbitrators shall reference the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure then in effect in setting the scope and timing of
discovery. The Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply in toto. The
-- ----
arbitrators may enter a default decision against any Party who fails to
participate in the arbitration proceedings.

5.5 Arbitration Awards. The arbitrators shall have the authority to award
-------------------
compensatory damages only. Any award by the arbitrators shall be
accompanied by a written opinion setting forth the findings of fact and
conclusions of law relied upon in reaching the decision. The award
rendered by the arbitrators shall be final, binding and non-appealable, and
judgment upon such award may be entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction. The Parties agree that the existence, conduct and content of
any arbitration shall be kept confidential and no Party shall disclose to
any person any information about such arbitration, except as may be
required by law or by any governmental authority or for financial reporting
purposes in each Party's financial statements.

5.6 Fees. Each Party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, expenses of
-----
witnesses and all other expenses and costs in connection with the
presentation of such Party's case (collectively, "Attorneys' Fees"). The
remaining costs of the arbitration, including without limitation, fees of
the arbitrators, costs of records or transcripts and administrative fees
(collectively, "Arbitration Costs") shall be borne equally by the Parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrators may modify the allocation of
Arbitration Costs and award Attorneys' Fees in those cases where fairness
dictates a different allocation of Arbitration Costs between the Parties
and an award of Attorneys' Fees to the prevailing Party as determined by
the arbitrators.

5.7 Non Arbitratable Disputes. Any Dispute that is not subject to final
--------------------------
resolution by the Management Committee or to arbitration under this Section
5 or by law (collectively, "Non-Arbitration Claims") shall be brought in a
court of competent jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Each
Party irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
the Commonwealth of Virginia and the federal courts situated in the
Commonwealth of Virginia, over any and all Non-Arbitration Claims and any
and all actions to enforce such claims or to recover damages or other
relief in connection with such claims.

6. STANDARD TERMS. The Standard Online Commerce Terms & Conditions set forth
--------------
on Exhibit F attached hereto and Standard Legal Terms & Conditions set forth on
Exhibit G attached hereto are each hereby made a part of this Agreement.

7. NO REVENUE SHARING. MP shall have no obligation to share with AOL any
-------------------
Transaction Revenues or Advertising Revenues that MP derives from the AOL Jump
Pages, the Affiliated MP Site, or any other MP Interactive Site.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the
Effective Date.

v. Prior to releasing material, new functionality or features through
the Affiliated MP Site ("New Functionality"), MP shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to DELETE either (i) test the New Functionality to
confirm its compatibility with AOL Service client software and (ii)
provide AOL with written notice of the New Functionality so that AOL can
perform tests of the New Functionality to confirm its compatibility with
the AOL Service client software.

10. AOL Internet Services MP Support. AOL shall provide MP with access to the

standard online resources, standards and guidelines documentation, technical
phone support, monitoring and after-hours assistance that AOL makes generally
available to similarly situated web-based partners. AOL support shall not, in
any case, be involved with content creation on behalf of MP or support for any
technologies, databases, software or other applications which are not supported

MP's use of any Keyword Search Terms which do not incorporate trademarks of MP.
MP acknowledges that its utilization of a Keyword Search Term shall not create
in it, nor shall it represent it has, any right, title or interest in or to such
Keyword Search Term, other than the right, title and interest MP holds in MP's
trademark independent of the Keyword Search Term. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, MP shall not: (a) attempt to register or otherwise
obtain trademark or copyright protection in the Keyword Search Term; or (b) use

contemplated hereunder. The limitations and disclaimers related to warranties
and liability contained in this Agreement are intended to limit the
circumstances and extent of liability. The provisions of this Section 9 shall

information to MP through a contest, registration, or other communication, which
included clear notice to the AOL User that the information provided could result
in commercial e-mail or other online communication being sent to that AOL User
by MP or its agents. Any commercial e-mail or other online communications to
AOL Users which are otherwise permitted hereunder, shall (a) include a prominent

limitation, the following actions: (i) using an Interactive Site other than the
Affiliated MP Site for the purchase of Services, (ii) using Content other than
the Licensed Content; (iii) bookmarking of Interactive Sites; or (iv) changing
the default home page on the AOL browser. Additionally, with respect to such
AOL User communications, in the event that MP encourages an AOL User to purchase
products through such communications, MP shall ensure that (a) the AOL Network
is promoted as the primary means through which the AOL User can access the
Affiliated MP Site and (b) any link to the Affiliated MP Site shall link to a
page which indicates to the AOL User that such user is in a site which is
affiliated with the AOL Network.

13. Collection and Use of User Information. MP shall ensure that its
--------------------------------------
collection, use and disclosure of information obtained from AOL Users under this
Agreement ("User Information") complies with (i) all applicable laws and
regulations and (ii) AOL's standard privacy policies, available on the AOL
Service at the keyword term "Privacy" (or, in the case of the Affiliated MP
Site, MP's standard privacy policies so long as such policies are prominently
published on the site and provide adequate notice, disclosure and choice to
users regarding MP's collection, use and disclosure of user information). MP
shall not disclose User Information collected hereunder to any third party in a
manner that identifies AOL Users as end users of an AOL product or service or
use Member Information collected under this Agreement to market another
Interactive Service, and MP shall not sell or share such information with any
third party without the prior written consent of AOL.

14. Excuse. Neither Party shall be liable for, or be considered in breach of

contractors. Neither Party is an agent, representative or employee of the other
Party. Neither Party shall have any right, power or authority to enter into any
agreement for or on behalf of, or incur any obligation or liability of, or to
otherwise bind, the other Party. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or
construed to create an association, agency, joint venture or partnership between
the Parties or to impose any liability attributable to such a relationship upon
either Party.

16. Notice. Any notice, approval, request, authorization, direction or other
------
communication under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed
to have been delivered and given for all purposes (i) on the delivery date if
delivered by electronic mail on the AOL Network (to screenname
