This means an author or programmer has prepared software which you are free to copy and share with others, but the author requests a REGISTRATION FEE for you to continue LEGAL use and receive additional benefits. If you received this software from a shareware vendor or computer club who charged $3 or $4 you have only paid a DISTRIBUTION or HANDLING FEE to produce an EVALUTION disk of which NO PORTION goes to the author of the software. You are encouraged to evaluate and use the software and, if found useful, pay the final REGISTRATION FEE to the author of the software to become a legally registered user and receive further benefits specified below. Also note the following key restriction: Unregistered users may examine, search and evaluate the main mailing list but may NOT use it for postal mailings due to decoy addresses and other methods used to track NON-REGISTERED USERS. The registration fee payable to the author is $25 which brings by return mail the UPDATED mailing list database, updates to the newsletter, registration number and permission to use the mailing list for postal and direct market mailings. An evaluation UNREGISTERED COPY of SMS can be obtained from the author for $10. Paying the remaining $15 to the author for a total of $25 in author payments registers an evaluation copy of SMS. $90 yearly subscription provides four quarterly issues of SMS at a savings of $10 per year over the individual issue price. Also refer to offer below for reimbursement of postage expenses for incorrect addresses/returned mail. Reimbursement claim form MUST first be validated to honor request for reimbursement. You may print the following registration/claim form on paper by using the print registration option of the main menu. Or you may copy it by hand if you prefer. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ PART ONE OF TWO: R E G I S T R A T I O N +--------------------------------------------------------------+ Mail to: Seattle Scientific Photography Dept SMS POB 1506 Mercer Island, WA 98040 Telephone (206) 236-0470 Who provided your copy of THE $HAREWARE MARKETING $YSTEM? ___________________________________________________________ From: __________________________ You are using the following version __________________________ of SMS: 91.13 __________________________ qty ordered: ____ SINGLE ISSUE REGISTRATION $25.00 postpaid (Check in US funds) Washington residents add 8.2% sales tax ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION - 4 ISSUES qty ordered: ____ $90.00 postpaid (Check in US funds) Washington residents add 8.2% sales tax qty ordered: ____ UNREGISTERED EVALUATION COPY OF SMS $10.00 postpaid (Check in US funds) Washington residents add 8.2% sales tax qty ordered: ____ UPGRADE EVAULATION COPY TO REGISTERED STATUS $15.00 postpaid (Check in US funds) Washington residents add 8.2% sales tax qty ordered: ____ POVERTY OPTION (read following:) FOR STARVING SHAREWARE AUTHORS.

Please read EXPLANTATION and TERMS at the end of this form. You may use this form or decline to use it. Today's date: Approximately how many items do you plan to mail using the database list? Seattle Scientific Photography validation stamp and date validated: DO NOT WRITE HERE! WE WILL VALIDATE EXPLANATION OF THIS FORM: I frequently remove and update undeliverable addresses from the mailing list database. One way I do this ON A RANDOM SPOT CHECK BASIS is to reimburse shareware authors for mail which is returned as undeliverable. This helps keep the database addresses correct and reimburses registered users for wasted postage. Here is how it works. When I receive your registration form, registration fee and the claim form which appears above, I will make a decision ON A RANDOM SPOT CHECK BASIS whether to validate this claim form and return it to you (you remain a registered user, of course.) In other words, Seattle Scientific Photography, the author of this software, MAY OR MAY NOT, AT OUR EXCLUSIVE OPTION validate the claim form and return it to you. The reason why I do not validate every claim form is that I need only SPOT CHECKS of mailing list accuracy NOT mailing address corrections from EVERY user of the the mailing list database. It would make little sense to have 500 registered users of this software all reporting the same two bad addresses when four or five people could reliably and affordably provide the same job. TERMS: If you mail Seattle Scientific Photgraphy the ORIGINAL envelope face with attached mailing label and US postal "address undeliverable" stamp for any undeliverable envelopes or disk mailers returned to you whose original destination address was derived from the $hareware Marketing $ystem, I will pay to you 50 cents per undeliverable item. I only do this with a FEW shareware authors on a random spot check basis. This offer is valid for only 90 days from validation date on the claim form. The claim form must accompany request for reimbursement. You must be a shareware author. The original claim form must be returned with undeliverable proofs (faces of envelopes or disk mailers.) Limited only to paid/registered users. The form must have OFFICIAL VALIDATION and date and be returned to us with your claim for reimbursement. If a mailing address in the database includes the name of a person in addition to company name/computer club name, you must use the person's name AND company name/club name on the face of labels you mail. Limit of one claim per user per year.
