SUPPLEMENTAL END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR MICROSOFT SOFTWARE ("Supplemental EULA")

IMPORTANT: READ CAREFULLY - As part of the MSN subscription sign-up process, your computer system is checked against the system requirements for the MSN subscription service to determine whether your computer system requires a more current version of any Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft") operating system components. If so, and you choose to install, copy or otherwise use the operating system components, then these operating system components, including any "online" or electronic documentation ("OS Components") are subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement under which you have licensed the applicable Microsoft operating system product described below (each an "End User License Agreement" or "EULA") and the terms and conditions of this Supplemental EULA. BY INSTALLING, COPYING, OR OTHERWISE USING THE OS COMPONENTS, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE APPLICABLE OS PRODUCT EULA AND THIS SUPPLEMENTAL EULA. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT INSTALL, COPY, OR USE THE OS COMPONENTS.

NOTE: This Supplemental EULA does not apply to MSN Internet software. The MSN Service Subscription Agreement outlines, among other things, the terms and conditions for your use of MSN Internet software. Later in the MSN subscription sign-up process, you will be presented with the MSN Service Subscription Agreement.

NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A VALIDLY LICENSED COPY OF ANY VERSION OR EDITION OF MICROSOFT WINDOWS 98, WINDOWS MILLENNIUM EDITION, WINDOWS NT 4.0, WINDOWS 2000 PROFESSIONAL, WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL, WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION OR ANY MICROSOFT OPERATING SYSTEM THAT IS A SUCCESSOR TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING OPERATING SYSTEMS (EACH AN "OS PRODUCT"), THEN YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO INSTALL, COPY OR OTHERWISE USE THE OS COMPONENTS AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS UNDER THIS SUPPLEMENTAL EULA.

Capitalized terms used in this Supplemental EULA and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the applicable OS Product EULA.

General. Each of the OS Components available as part of this MSN subscription sign-up process is identified as being applicable to one or more of the OS Products. The applicable OS Components are provided to you by Microsoft to update, supplement, or replace existing functionality of the applicable OS Product. Microsoft grants you a license to use the applicable OS Components under the terms and conditions of the EULA for the applicable OS Product (which are hereby incorporated by reference except as set forth below), and the terms and conditions set forth in this Supplemental EULA, provided that you comply with all such terms and conditions. To the extent that the terms and conditions of this Supplemental EULA conflict with the terms and conditions of the applicable OS Product EULA, the terms and conditions of this Supplemental EULA shall solely control with respect to the OS Components.

Additional Rights and Limitations.

* With respect to the OS Components only, if the licensor of the applicable OS Product was an entity other than Microsoft, then for the purposes of this Supplemental EULA Microsoft will be the licensor with respect to such OS Components in lieu of the "Manufacturer" or other entity and support, if any, for such OS Components shall not be provided by Manufacturer. With respect to the existing functionality contained in the applicable OS Product which is not updated, supplemented, or replaced by the OS Components, the EULA for the OS Product shall remain in full force and effect as to that OS Product.

* If you have multiple, validly licensed copies of any OS Product, you may reproduce, install and use one (1) copy of the applicable OS Components as part of the applicable OS Product on each of your computers running validly licensed copies of the applicable OS Product, provided that you use such additional copies of such OS Components in accordance with the terms and conditions above. Microsoft retains all right, title and interest in and to the OS Components. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Microsoft.

* If you are installing the OS Components on behalf of an organization other than your own, prior to installing any of the OS Components, you must confirm that the end-user (whether an individual or a single entity) has a validly licensed copy of an OS Product and has received, read and accepted the terms and conditions of this Supplemental EULA.

* The OS Components may contain technology that enables applications to be shared between two (2) or more computers, even if an application is installed on only one (1) of the computers. You may use this technology with all Microsoft application products for multi-party conferences. For non-Microsoft applications, you should consult the license agreement accompanying such applications or contact the licensor of such applications to determine whether application sharing is permitted by the licensor.

* Content providers are using the digital rights management technology ("Microsoft DRM") contained in this Product to protect the integrity of their content ("Secure Content") so that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated. Owners of such Secure Content ("Secure Content Owners") may, from time to time, request Microsoft to provide security related updates to the Microsoft DRM components of the Product ("Security Updates") that may affect your ability to copy, display and/or play Secure Content through Microsoft software or third party applications that utilize Microsoft DRM. You therefore agree that, if you elect to download a license from the Internet which enables your use of Secure Content, Microsoft may, in conjunction with such license, also download onto your computer such Security Updates that a Secure Content Owner has requested that Microsoft distribute. Microsoft will not retrieve any personally identifiable information, or any other information, from your computer by downloading such Security Updates.

* You acknowledge and agree that Microsoft may automatically check the version of the OS Product and/or the OS Components you are utilizing and may provide upgrades to such software that will be automatically downloaded to your computer.

* The amount of storage space for messages per user is limited. Some messages may not be processed due to space constraints, inbound or outbound message limitations. You agree that Microsoft is not responsible or liable for the deletion or failure to process or store messages. Microsoft shall have no obligation to maintain any content in your account or to forward messages to you or any third party.
