MINDSPRING ENTERPRISES, INC. 
SERVICE AGREEMENT

If I have given my credit card number to MindSpring, I understand that charges will be billed to my credit card each month for the basic service and any additional usage.  I authorize this automatic billing by MindSpring.  MindSpring's billing cycle follows the calendar month, with the basic service fee for each month charged at the beginning of the month along with additional usage fees from the prior month.  I understand that I may cancel my account at any time effective the end of that billing cycle.  If I am not satisfied and wish to cancel my account within 30 days of the day MindSpring mails my startup kit to me, I may do so and receive a full refund of all money paid by returning all MindSpring startup materials in good condition within those first 30 days and signing a statement certifying that I have kept no copies of any of the MindSpring startup materials, either software or hard copy.  I understand that MindSpring may change its prices from time to time, and that I will be provided with 15 days written or electronic mail notice of any such changes.  I understand that I may not provide any full time information services over this connection.  I agree not to use any automatic method to avoid inactivity disconnect.  I understand that a Flat rate account is a personal account, to be used by only by me and members of my immediate family.  Standard Plan accounts may be shared.
