Additional Schedule of Terms for .BIZ TLD.

In addition to the terms set forth in the Agreement, the following terms shall apply to .biz domain names. 

1. Additional Representations and Warranties.  If you are applying for the registration of a domain name in the .biz top-level domain ("TLD"), you also represent and warrant that: (i) the domain name will be used primarily for bona fide business or commercial purposes and not (a) exclusively for personal use or (b) solely for the purposes of selling, trading or leasing the domain name for compensation, or the unsolicited offering to sell, trade or lease the domain name for compensation; and (ii) the domain name is reasonably related to your business or intended commercial purpose at the time of registration.


2. Acknowledgment of Dispute Policies and Rules.  You acknowledge having read and understood and agrees 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 Uniform Domain Name Dispute Policy, available at http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp.htm; (ii)  The Start-up Trademark Opposition Policy ("STOP"), available at http://www.neulevel.com/countdown/stop.html; (iii) The Restrictions Dispute Resolution Criteria and Rules, available at http://www.neulevel.com/countdown/rdrp.html.  If at the time of your application for services in the .biz TLD, any of the above policies or rules (collectively ".biz Policies") have not yet been approved by ICANN (which may mean the .biz Policies are not available for viewing via live hyperlinks above), you agree to be bound by the terms of such .biz Policies upon such approval and in the final form approved by ICANN, as posted on our Web site or the ICANN Web site (located at www.icann.org).  You agree that, by maintaining the services provided hereunder (which may include registration of a domain name) after such posting of any of the ICANN approved .biz Policies, you have agreed to the terms and conditions of the same.  You acknowledge that if you do not agree to the .biz Policies, you may terminate this Agreement. We will not refund any fees paid by you if you terminate your Agreement with us.


3. Registry Actions or Inactions.  Our ability to provide services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .biz registry. We cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties.  For example, the .biz registry has reserved the right to deny, cancel or transfer any domain name registration under certain circumstances.  You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .biz registry.


4. Multiple Phases of Services.  Your application or registration (whether successful or not) for any .biz registry or .biz TLD services hereunder does not guarantee, and we do not promise, that you will be approved or eligible for any other services available or that may become available through us or any third party.  For example, certain services in the .biz TLD are provided in sequential phases, and participation in one phase, does not automatically qualify you for participation in other phases, and any further participation is not automatic.  The .biz registry, and not NameCheap, determines the dates and times associated with the various service phases available in the .biz TLD. You agree to review and become familiar with the information available on our Web site and on the .biz Web site concerning the various phases and descriptions of services available in connection with .biz TLD, and to regularly check for modifications and/or updates to such information, as the same may change from time to time.  You agree that you are solely responsible for applying and/or registering for the service phases you desire to participate in.  Additionally, you acknowledge and agree that submission of an application for domain name registration or any other services, does not guarantee that you will ultimately be the registrant for a particular domain name, even if you participated in some other service associated with the domain name, such as an intellectual property notification service or similar service.


5. Additional Acknowledgments Concerning Customer Information.  You also acknowledge and agree that NameCheap will share with the .biz registry certain information submitted by you in your application(s) for our services, as required by our agreement(s) with the .biz registry or to provide the services you have applied for.  You acknowledge and agree that any information we share with the .biz registry may be used by them to fulfill the .biz registry's service obligations to us or any third party.


6. Disclaimer Concerning Intellectual Property Notification Service.  Your participation in an intellectual property notification service or similar service does not provide you with any intellectual property protections or registrations, nor does it provide you with any rights to any particular domain name registration.  Any service employed by you is a notification service only and, even if you participate in such a service, you must still submit an application for a domain name registration to become the registrant for the corresponding domain.


7. Survival of Terms.  You agree that the indemnity provisions set forth in this Schedule shall survive any termination of the Agreement.


8. Terms of Use for IP Claim Service.  The following additional terms apply specifically to the Intellectual Property Claim Service (in this Section 8 of this Schedule, the "Claim Service") made available in the .biz TLD. For purposes of this Section 8, "Owner" shall mean the owner of a registered or common law trademark or service mark and "Agent" shall mean the duly authorized agent of an Owner (collectively "you"), and "Registrar" shall mean NameCheap. These Terms of Use will continue to apply to all past use of the Claim Service by you, even if you are no longer using the Claim Service.  You acknowledge and agree that Registrar may terminate or block your use of all or part of the Claim Service without prior notice for any reason, including, without limitation, if Registrar believes you have engaged in conduct prohibited by these Terms of Use.    

8.1. The Claim Service. Registrar provides the Claim Service to holders of both registered and common law trademarks or service marks (collectively "Trademarks"). During the domain name application process, applicants for a .biz domain name ("Applicants") will be notified of an Owner's alleged intellectual property rights in a Trademark if the domain name contained in the domain name application is an exact match of the Trademark identified in an IP Claim (as defined below) submitted by Owner. You may review frequently asked questions regarding the Claim Service by reviewing our FAQs.

8.2. License to Use Data / Privacy. By submitting an IP Claim, You hereby grant Registrar, as well as any of its agents or subcontractors, and the .biz registry, a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive worldwide license to use all of the data contained in the IP Claim solely for the purposes of implementing the Claim Service, processing Your IP Claim, notifying Applicants of Your IP Claim, and for notifying You of changes to the Claim Service, and for archival purposes.

8.3. The IP Claim Process. In order to submit a claim with respect to a Trademark or Trademarks ("IP Claim") through the Claim Service, You must complete an IP Claim form for each Trademark. For each IP Claim, You must submit complete contact information, representative contact information and notification details, and the details regarding the Trademark. You may specify in the representative field that an Agent may receive legal correspondence regarding the IP Claim. Once you have submitted an IP Claim, you will receive a confirmation email and a claim number. You must retain the claim number for each IP Claim you submit. Registrar will accept IP Claims until July 9, 2001, or such later date as it may determine in its sole discretion ("Close of Phase I") and no IP Claims will be accepted after that date. From the Close of Phase I until September 25, 2001 ("Phase 2"), or such other later date as Registrar may choose, in its sole discretion, the domain name applications from ICANN-approved registrars ("Applications") will be compared with the database of IP Claims processed through the Claim Service ("IP Claim Database"). For each exact match between an IP Claim in the IP Claim Database and a domain name application, the Registry Operator for .Biz ("Registry Operator") will notify the Applicant that a third party or third parties have submitted an IP Claim for the exact Trademark. The email notification to the Applicant will include, among other things, the information provided by Owner in the IP Claim, instructions on how to proceed with the registration process, and that if selected during the randomized name selection phase ("Name Selection Phase"), the domain name will be placed on a temporary thirty (30) day hold when the Registry goes "live." The Applicant will have the option to proceed with the Application or cancel the Application. If the Applicant does not respond to the email notification, or elects to cancel the Application, the Applicant's domain name application will not be processed during the Name Selection Phase. If the Applicant chooses to proceed with the registration process and the name is selected during the Name Selection Phase, that domain name automatically will be placed on a thirty (30) day "hold period" when the name is registered. After Name Selection, the Owner will be notified by Registry Operator if an Applicant has successfully registered the domain name. The Owner will then have the option of contacting the Applicant and finding a solution or using the guidelines set forth by a special dispute resolution process called the Start-up Trademark Opposition Policy ("STOP") (formerly referred to as the Start-up Dispute Resolution Policy or "SUDRP") (information available at http://www.neulevel.com/countdown/stop.html), or the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute Resolution Procedures ("UDRP") (information is available at http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp-policy-24oct99.htm). You will not be notified if there are no Applications that exactly match an IP Claim You submitted in the IP Claim Database.

9. DISCLAIMER. USE OF THE SERVICE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT AN OWNER WILL BE AWARDED THE .BIZ EXTENSION FOR ITS TRADEMARK. AN OWNER THAT WISHES TO OBTAIN A .BIZ EXTENSION FOR ITS TRADEMARK MUST FILE A DOMAIN NAME APPLICATION.  DOMAIN NAME APPLICANTS WILL ONLY BE NOTIFIED OF APPLICATIONS THAT ARE EXACT MATCHES WITH A TRADEMARK IDENTIFIED IN AN IP CLAIM FORM. REGISTRAR WILL NOT VERIFY WHETHER A TRADEMARK CLAIMED ON AN IP CLAIM FORM CORRESPONDS WITH AN ACTUAL, LEGAL OR VALID TRADEMARK, NOR WILL REGISTRAR PROVIDE ANY LEGAL OVERSIGHT OR ADJUDICATION FOR ANY DISPUTED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IMPLICATED BY THE SERVICE.


10. Fees. As consideration for the Claim Service, Registrar, or its agents or subcontractors may require you to submit and pay for each IP Claim individually or it may allow you store up a certain number of IP Claims before submitting them for processing. Once you have stored that number of IP Claims, you may not be able to store any additional IP Claims and may need to submit them for processing and pay the applicable fee before obtaining additional storage space. No refunds are permitted.


11. Links. Some links on the Claim Service lead to sites posted by independent site owners. Because Registrar has no control over these sites, it cannot be responsible for such sites' accessibility via the Internet and does not endorse products, services, or information provided by such sites. As such, Registrar shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with, use or reliance on any content, goods or services available on or through any other site. Further, the inclusion of these links does not imply that the other sites have given permission for inclusion of these links, or that there is any relationship between Registrar and the linked sites.


12. Modifications to the Claim Service. Registrar reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Claim Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Claim Services.


13. Third Party Beneficiary. Registry Operator ("NeuLevel") is an intended third party beneficiary of these Term and Conditions with rights to enforce these Terms of Use. You will cooperate in good faith with NeuLevel or Registrar in investigating instances of non-compliance with these Terms of Use, if NeuLevel or Registrar believes in good faith that you are not in compliance with these Terms of Use. 


14. LIMITATION NO REGISTRAR AND REGISTRY OPERATOR’S OBLIGATIONS.  You agree that Registrar and Registry Operator are not responsible for checking, verifying or editing message content or completeness, or for detecting errors or anomalies, or for recreating or re-transmitting data.

If at the time of your application for services in the .info TLD, the SDRP has not yet been approved by ICANN (which may mean the SDRP is not available for viewing via live hyperlink above), you agree to be bound by the terms of the SDRP upon such approval and in the final form approved by ICANN, as posted on our Web site or the ICANN Web site (located at http://www.icann.org).  You agree that, by maintaining the services provided hereunder after such posting of any of the ICANN approved SDRP, you have agreed to the terms and conditions of the same.  You acknowledge that if you do not agree to the SDRP, you may terminate this Agreement. We will not refund any fees paid by you if you terminate your Agreement with us.

2. Registry Actions or Inactions.  Our ability to provide services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .info registry. We cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties.  For example, the .info registry has reserved the right to refuse or cancel any Sunrise Registration at any time and to request additional information relating to a Sunrise Registration.  You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .info registry.  


3. No Guarantee on Registration. The .info registry, and not NameCheap, determines the dates and times associated with the various service periods available in the .info TLD. You agree to review and become familiar with the information available on our Web site and on the .info Web site concerning the various periods and descriptions of services available in connection with .info TLD, and to regularly check for modifications and/or updates to such information, as the same may change from time to time.  You agree that you are solely responsible for applying and/or registering for the service periods you desire to participate in.  You acknowledge and agree that submission of an application for domain name registration or any other services (regardless of when submitted), does not guarantee that you will ultimately be the registrant for a particular domain name.


4. Disclaimer Concerning Intellectual Property Protection.  Your application for a Sunrise Registration does not provide you with any intellectual property protections or registrations.

You must be (and you certify that you are) either: a) an undertaking having their registered office, central administration or principal place of business within the European Community; b) an organization established anywhere within the European Community; or c) a natural person resident within the European Community.


3. Your Obligation to Satisfy Nexus Requirement.  You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility, through the registration process (and, if applicable, as required during your registration term), to provide the information necessary to satisfy the .EU Nexus Requirements, and that a failure by you to satisfy the .EU Nexus Requirements may result in, among other things, (i) the domain name pre-registration application(s) being rejected by NameCheap and/or the .EU Registry, (ii) the domain name(s) being placed on "hold" by NameCheap and/or the .EU Registry, and/or (iii) the domain name(s) being deleted by NameCheap and/or the .EU Registry. Neither NameCheap nor the .EU Registry (nor any other entity or person) shall be liable to you for any actions or inactions of any of them resulting from your failure to provide all required .EU Nexus Requirements information at the time of pre-registration (or, where applicable, during your registration term), and none of them shall have any obligation to request or attempt to obtain from you additional information to establish your compliance with the .EU Nexus Requirements, even if the need for such information is known by any of them.


4. Pre-Registration.  When you submit a .EU pre-registration request, you are authorizing us to attempt to obtain a domain name in the .EU TLD (as described on our Web site and herein) for you if and when .EU Registry launches its sunrise and open-registration period (the "go-live date"). On the go-live date, NameCheap will submit all pre-registration requests during the sunrise and open registration period and the .EU Registry will review all proposed registration requests on a first come, first serve basis.


5. No Infringement of Third Party Rights.  By submitting your pre-registration or other registration request, you certify that your request is made in good faith and does not infringe any rights of a third party.

You also agree to submit the necessary verifiable documentation required by .EU Registry in order to demonstrate that you are a public body or have a prior right. You acknowledge that .EU Registry, or its designee, shall decide at its own discretion whether any documentation you may submit verifies your right to register a domain name(s).


7. Charges.  By submitting your .EU pre-registration request, you authorize us to charge you for any proposed registrations we undertake on your behalf that are submitted to .EU Registry. You will be charged during the sunrise or open registration period when .EU Registry is reviewing your proposed registration prior to their final approval. Proposed sunrise registration requests that are rejected by .EU Registry will still be charged an administrative fee that will not be refunded to you. Sunrise fees, registration fees and other applicable fees may also apply and be charged to your credit card after the sunrise period begins if your proposed registration is accepted and processed by EU Registry. Upon .EU Registry's acceptance of a proposed registration request for a domain name(s), the full registration fee will automatically be charged to the credit card that you used for placing your pre-registration request. Successful .EU registration requests will be subject to the terms of the Agreement, including this Schedule.


8. Ban on and Revocation of Certain Domain Names.  You agree that .EU Registry has identified certain domain names that cannot be registered during the sunrise and open registration process. You further accept that .EU Registry and NameCheap reserves the right to deny pre-registration requests that .EU Registry or an EU Member State considers to be defamatory, racist, or contrary to public policy. You understand that .EU Registry may also revoke a domain name at its own initiative for a variety of reasons including but not limited to nonpayment of fees or failure to meet .EU Nexus Requirements.


9. Your Other Obligations.  You agree to accept the terms of the .EU Registry's agreement with NameCheap. You acknowledge that the .EU Registry's terms and conditions related to the sunrise and open registration period as well as its fees have not been determined by .EU Registry.

If you do not agree to any of the terms and conditions that are established by the .EU Registry, you may expressly terminate this Agreement.


10. Contact Information Requirements.  You agree to keep all contact information contained related to your pre-registration request for a domain name(s) current so that we can contact you for any reason or so the EU Registry's can contact you for any reason, including, but not limited to, any participation in a validation process for a domain name(s) during the sunrise or open registration period. We take no responsibility in providing the .EU Registry with any e-mail address other than what you provide in your pre-registration request. It is your obligation to keep all contact information, including all e-mail addresses, related to your pre-registration request current.


11. Validation Process.  You agree that we shall have no liability to you or other third parties for anything related to the .EU Registry's validation process for a proposed registration request that we have submitted and is pending final .EU Registry approval. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to ensure that you meet all of the requirements that are involved in .EU Registry's validation process for your proposed registration request for a domain name(s). You agree that we are not responsible or liable in any way if your proposed registration request is rejected for any reason, including but not limited to the .EU Registry's failure or inability to contact you or your failure to respond to .EU Registry's request for supporting documentation, during the validation process.


12. No Guarantees.  We make no guarantees, representations or warranties that your proposed registration request for a domain name will be accepted by .EU Registry. You acknowledge and agree that the proposed registration request for a domain name(s) submitted by NameCheap to .EU Registry domain name may fail or be rejected by .EU Registry for any number of reasons, including, but not limited to, the fact that your proposed registration request for a domain name was not first in time. You acknowledge and agree that the successful registration of a pre-registration request during the sunrise period will depend upon a number of different factors that NameCheap cannot predict or control.  The .EU Registry, and not NameCheap, determines the dates and times associated with the various sunrise and open registration periods available for the .EU TLD. You agree to review and become familiar with the information available on our website and on .EU Registry website concerning the various periods and descriptions of services available in connection with .EU TLD, and to regularly check for modifications and/or updates to such information, as the same may change from time to time. You agree that you are solely responsible for applying and/or registering for the service periods you desire to participate in. You acknowledge and agree that submission of a proposed registration request for a domain name(s) or any other services (regardless of when submitted), does not guarantee that you will ultimately be the registrant for any particular domain name. You understand that any successful registrations that are approved by the .EU Registry shall not start until at least the completion of the sunrise period.


13. Acknowledgment of .EU Registry Policies and Rules.  You acknowledge having read and understood and agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions of all of the policies or rules (collectively ".EU Policies") that are posted or referred to on the EU Registry's website. You agree to comply with any and all current and future .EU Policies at any and all times. You agree that, by maintaining any service related to your pre-registration request (and, if applicable, your actual domain name registration) after such posting of any new or amended .EU Policies, you have agreed to the terms and conditions of the same and will be bound by such terms and conditions. You acknowledge that if you do not agree to the amended or new .EU Policies, you may terminate this Agreement. We will not refund any fees paid by you if you terminate your Agreement with us.


14. Registry Actions or Inactions.  Our ability to provide services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .EU Registry. We cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties. You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .EU Registry (for example, the .EU Registry reserves the right to suspend, reject, deny or revoke any domain name registration for a variety of reasons, none of which NameCheap can control).


15. Accurate Information.  As a part of your pre-registration, you agree to submit the accurate and reliable information, including but not limited to, contact details of at least one natural or legal person responsible for the technical operation of the domain name that you are requesting. The submission of inaccurate information shall constitute grounds for rejecting a pre-registration request or proposed registration request or suspending, terminating or deleting the rights to register a domain name. Without limiting the other provisions of the Agreement, your provision of inaccurate or unreliable information, or your failure promptly to update information provided to NameCheap shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall be a basis for cancellation of the domain name(s) applied for hereunder.


16. Disclaimer Concerning Intellectual Property Protection.  Your pre-registration request related to the .EU Registry's sunrise period, and any domain name registration (whether or not related to the sunrise period) does not provide you with any intellectual property protections or registrations. 


17. Limitation of Liability. In addition to the other limitations of liability contained herein, you agree that NameCheap shall have no liability of any kind for any loss or liability resulting from the processing of pre-registration requests prior to live .EU launch or the submission of proposed registration requests to the .EU Registry including, without limitation, your ability or inability to obtain a particular domain name including any dispute resolution proceeding related to any of the foregoing. NameCheap assumes no liability for any pre-registration request or a domain name's rejection, suspension, cancellation, deletion, interruption or transfer due to procedures, rules or policies laid down by .EU Registry or due to practices, customs or prejudices of courts of law or dispute resolving arbitrators. We are not liable for any claims, damages or injuries arising out of the termination of services that are provided by .EU Registry for any reason, including but not li mited to the termination of .EU Registry's registration authority, or its bankruptcy.


18. Indemnification.  In addition to Section 9 of this Agreement on Indemnity, you are to indemnify, release, defend and hold us harmless for all liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses arising out of: (a) your breach of any terms of this Schedule; (b) any violation of a third party's right related to your pre-registration request; (c) any dispute with the .EU Registry or a third party arising out of your pre-registration request; (d) any dispute related to the validation process for your pre-registration request; or (e) any dispute arising out of the ADR process described in EC No. 874/2004, Ch.

You acknowledge and agree that any information we share with the .EU registry may be used by them to fulfill the .EU registry's service obligations to us or any third party.
