GROUPLINGS LLC BUYER AGREEMENT ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS Grouplings LLC ("Grouplings") welcomes buyers to Grouplings’ premiere auction site. Grouplings provides its online auction service to buyers (“Buyers”) and vendors (“Vendors”) (Buyers and Vendors are sometimes collectively referred to as “Participants”) subject to the following Terms of Service ("TOS"), which may be updated by Grouplings from time to time without prior notice. In addition, when using the Grouplings’ online Services (as defined below), Participants and Grouplings will be subject to any additional guidelines or rules, which may be posted from time to time, including without limitation, Grouplings’ Rules of the Game, Grouplings’ “How Does It Work” terms, Grouplings’ Web site ("Site")Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. In addition, Participants are subject to certain third party terms and conditions, for example credit card company’s terms and conditions. All such terms, guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into this TOS. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TOS IS PART OF THE SITE’S TERMS OF USE, AND BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SITE; BUYER AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THE TOS. BUYERS, WHO DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE TOS, MUST EXIT THE SITE NOW. BUYER’S REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE TOS OR THE SERVICES PROVIDED ON OR THROUGH THIS SITE, IS TO STOP USING THE SITE. BUYER’S AGREEMENT WITH GROUPLINGS REGARDING COMPLIANCE WITH THE TOS BECOMES EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY UPON COMMENCEMENT OF BUYER’S USE OF THIS SITE. I. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE a. Grouplings provides Buyers and Vendors with access to Grouplings’ unique online buying service, now provided or hereafter developed (the "Service"). Buyers may use the relevant area of the Site to create groups in order to maximize savings on purchases from Vendors. The detailed procedures and rules governing those activities are set forth in Grouplings’ Rules of the Game posted on the Site from time to time. b. Buyers understand and agree that the Service may include advertisements and that these advertisements are necessary for Grouplings to provide the Service. In addition, Buyers understand and agree that the Service may include certain communications from Grouplings, such as service announcements and administrative messages, and that these communications are considered part of Grouplings’ membership and upon registering, Buyers will not be able to opt out of receiving them. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the detailed procedures and rules governing those activities shall be subject to the TOS. Buyers understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS IS" and that Grouplings assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, misdelivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings. Buyers are responsible for obtaining access to the Service, and that access may involve third-party fees (such as Internet service provider or airtime charges). Buyers are responsible for those fees, including those fees associated with the display or delivery of advertisements. In addition, Buyers must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access the Service. II. BUYER'S REGISTRATION a. OBLIGATIONS – In consideration of Buyer’s use of the Service, Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer is of legal age to form a binding contract (at least 18 years of age if in the United States) and is not a person barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdiction. Buyer also agrees to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about Buyer as prompted by the Service's registration form (collectively the "Registration Data") and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. b. REPRESENTATIONS – Buyer represents and warrants that: (1) all Buyer’s Registration Data will be accurate and complete and will accurately represent Buyer’s ability to accept the products or services as ordered; (2) no Registration Data or other information Buyer provides on the Site shall be fraudulent or counterfeit; (3) Buyer shall have the right and the authority to: (a) enter into this agreement and (b) bid and accept bids matching Buyer’s stated criteria with respect to the Service; (4) Buyer is of legal age to form a binding contract or older; and (5) Buyer’s use of the Service will not violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation. III. REGISTRATION FOR CHILDREN Grouplings is concerned about the safety and privacy of all its users, particularly children. For this reason, Buyers who wish to allow their children under the age of 13 to access the Service must create a Grouplings Family Account (should we add ????). When a Buyer creates a Grouplings Family Account and adds its child to the account, Buyer certifies that Buyer is at least 18 years of age and that Buyer is the legal guardian of the child/children listed on the Grouplings Family Account. By adding a child to Buyer’s Grouplings Family Account, Buyer agrees to be completely responsible for its child’s/children’s actions. Please remember that the Service is designed to appeal to a broad audience. Accordingly, as the legal guardian, it is Buyer’s responsibility to determine whether any of the Site areas and/or Content (as defined in Paragraph V(a) below) are appropriate for Buyer’s child. IV. BUYER ACCOUNT, PASSWORD AND SECURITY Buyer will receive a password and account information upon completing Grouplings’ registration process. Buyer is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password and account and is fully responsible for all activities that occur under Buyer’s password or account. Buyer agrees to immediately notify Grouplings of any unauthorized use of Buyer’s password or account or any other breach of security. Accordingly, Gouplinks recommends that Buyer exits from its account at the end of each session. Grouplings cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from Buyer’s failure to maintain the confidentiality of its password and account. V. BUYER'S CONDUCT a.

XIV. EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OF SECTIONS X AND XI MAY NOT APPLY TO BUYER. XV. RESOLVING DISPUTES. Grouplings is neither the seller nor the buyer of any goods/services. Instead, Grouplings and its Site act as a venue to allow certain persons to buy certain products from its authorized Vendors. Because Grouplings is not the seller in the actual transaction between Participants and is not the agent of either for any purpose, Grouplings does not have the duty to resolve and will not be involved in resolving any disputes between Participants related to or arising out of any such transaction. Grouplings merely processes a transaction between Buyer and Vendor by collecting Buyer’s payment and distributing it (less all applicable fees) to Vendor. As a result, Grouplings has no control over the quality, safety or legality of the items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of Vendors to sell items or the ability of Buyers to pay for items. Grouplings cannot ensure that a Buyer or Vendor will actually complete a transaction. Consequently, subject to Grouplings’ Site Terms of Use, Grouplings does not transfer legal ownership of items from the Vendor to the Buyer, and nothing in this TOS shall modify the provisions under which legal ownership of an item is transferred upon physical delivery of the item to the Buyer by the Vendor. XVI. GROUPLINGS’ PRIVACY POLICY Grouplings is committed to protecting Buyer’s privacy. Click here [Link to Privacy Policy] for our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference into, and made part of, this TOS. Grouplings may change the Privacy Policy in the future. Buyer should check the Privacy Policy frequently for changes. XVII. GENERAL RELEASE. BECAUSE GROUPLINGS IS NOT THE SELLER IN TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANTS, IF A DISPUTE ARISES BETWEEN ONE OR MORE PARTICIPANTS, BOTH PARTICIPANTS RELEASE GROUPLINGS (AND ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES) FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS AND DAMAGES (ACTUAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL) OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED AND UNSUSPECTED, DISCLOSED AND UNDISCLOSED, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES. IF ANY PARTICIPANT IS A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, HE/SHE WAIVES CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE § 1542, WHICH STATES: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." THE PARTICIPANTS, BEING AWARE OF SAID CODE SECTION, HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE THEREUNDER, AS WELL AS UNDER ANY OTHER STATUES OR COMMON LAW PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE. THE PARTICIPANTS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS WAIVER IS AN ESSENTIAL AND MATERIAL TERM OF THIS TOS, AND THAT WITHOUT SUCH WAIVER, THIS TOS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ENTERED INTO BY GROUPLINGS. XVIII. INFRINGEMENT NOTICE. a. Grouplings grants a limited license to each Participant to make personal use only of the Site and the Services in accordance with this TOS.

The article and section headings contained in this TOS are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this TOS. f.
