  Interlync Internet Services, Inc., an Illinois corporation, ("Interlync") is pleased to bring you high speed Data Service ("Service") through a permanent circuit using Digital Subscriber Line ("DSL") or T1 Line technology. The terms and conditions for the Service are as follows (the "Agreement"):

1. One Year Term of Agreement: Our agreement with National Resellers and Telco's, requires Interlync to keep each line in service for at least one year, this Agreement has an initial term of one year (the "Initial Term") and will continue on a month-to-month basis thereafter. After the Initial Term, either party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' notice or initiate a contract renewal at the current rates. The Initial Term begins the day your DSL/T1 line is successfully installed by the DSL/T1 provider, as recorded in its database. If Interlync or the DSL/T1 provider cannot successfully deliver the Service, this contract is implicitly terminated without penalty or cost to you.

1.1 Contingency Fees: During the installation process the DSL/T1 supplier will need access to your premises, phone closet or inside your location. If the supplier has to return due to lack of access there will be additional fees for truck roll, missed appointment or refused access to equipment rooms.

2. Description of Service: The Service is made up of two elements: DSL/T1 service to your premises, and Internet Access through Interlync or other downstream Providers.

2.1 DSL/T1 Service: DSL/T1 Service is a digital data telecommunications service that consists of a permanent circuit between your premises and the serving wire center. The maximum throughput rate (Download/Upload Speed) depends upon such factors as the distance from your premises to the servicing wire center, and the quality of the copper telephone line serving your premises. DSL/T1 Service provides high-speed access to our Internet Access Service.

2.2 Internet Access Service: Our Internet Access Service through Interlync will provide you with access to the Internet and e-mail services. For the terms and conditions of our Internet Access Service, please see our Acceptable Use Policy web page at http://www.interlync.com on the Internet. These terms are subject to change without notice at any time.

3. Rates and Payment Terms: The rates for DSL/T1 service ("Rates") are set forth on our DSL/T1 service webpage's. The Rates will be in effect for the Initial Term, and may be changed by us after the end of the Initial Term by giving you written or e-mailed notice of the new Rates at least thirty (30) days before their effective date. In addition to the Rates, we will bill you for all federal, state, county, and local taxes, surcharges, fees, and universal service contribution on the Service. Charges for the Services will begin when the Services are installed. Payments for Services will be made through monthly charges to your credit card, unless we agree with you to the contrary. You may pre-pay by check or money order if you prefer not to pay via credit cared, but a credit card number is required in all cases, and your credit card will be charged if you do not maintain a credit balance in your account. You must keep us informed of any changes in your credit card information, or you will be in default under this agreement.
