VPAGE.NET LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

This schedule relates to the Vpage.net Terms of Use ("TOU"), and terms used here have the meanings given to them in the TOU.

In addition, for purposes of this schedule of liquidated damages, "Item of Content" means each and every instance of content of any type posted to, stored on or transmitted via vpage.net by any user (or any other third party in any manner). For example, each single post to vpage.net (including but not limited to any ad, comment, flag or message posted to vpage.net), each single data file stored on vpage.net (including but not limited to any account information, text, code, images, video or binary file), and each single communication transmitted via vpage.net (including but not limited to any email or response to an email) is a single “Item of Content.” Each “Item of Content” shall be considered and treated as an individual, discrete “Item of Content” even if it contains the same or substantially similar content as one or more other Items of Content.

For purposes of this schedule of liquidated damages, "Account" means each and every vpage.net account of any type applied for, requested or created by any means (including but not limited to telephone-verified accounts, also known as phone verified accounts or "PVAs").

For purposes of this schedule of liquidated damages, "Instance of Unauthorized Conduct" or "Instance" means each individual time Vpage.net's servers are accessed in connection with or in facilitation of a violation of the TOU.  With respect to the Instances of Unauthorized Conduct enumerated in paragraph 6 below, each day that Vpage.net's servers are accessed to facilitate one or more of the violations enumerated therein shall constitute one Instance of Unauthorized Conduct.

For purposes of this schedule of liquidated damages, "Attempt" shall be defined pursuant to California law.

TOU violations harm the functionality, integrity, and reputation of vpage.net; interfere with and detract from users' and customers’ beneficial use and enjoyment of vpage.net; and are detrimental to Vpage.net as a business.  Pursuant to §§ 11 and 12 of the TOU, you acknowledge and agree that Vpage.net incurs actual damages as a result of the TOU violations detailed below. You further acknowledge and agree that actual damages caused by such violations are extremely difficult, impossible or impractical to determine or quantify. Consequently, you agree it is fair and reasonable for Vpage.net to obtain injunctive relief to prohibit future violations of these TOU and recover liquidated damages for past violations of these TOU, and you acknowledge that the amounts set forth below reflect reasonable estimates of Vpage.net's actual damages from each such violation and that such estimates are reasonably related to the actual damages caused to Vpage.net by each such violation.

For each TOU violation below, you therefore agree to pay liquidated damages to Vpage.net in the amount specified. You further acknowledge and agree that the imposition of liquidated damages for each such TOU violation is independent and distinct, and that the assessment of total liquidated damages for multiple TOU violations is cumulative.

1. $25 Per Item of Content

For the following, you agree to pay $25 per Item of Content:

(a) a flag of content without a personal, good-faith belief that the content violates the TOU; (b) a flag of content on behalf of someone else; (c) a flag that you permit, enable, induce or encourage someone else to make on your behalf; (d) more than one flag of a specific Item of Content; (e) content posted to a geographic area offered on vpage.net for which that content is not relevant; (f) content that is the same or substantially similar to content posted to or communicated via vpage.net for more than one geographic area; (g) content posted in a vpage.net category to which it is not directly relevant (as explained in the TOU ¶ 4.a.

(fourth paragraph)); (j) content the same or substantially similar to other content posted more than once within 48 hours; (k) content you post to vpage.net on behalf of another; or (l) content posted to vpage.net by a third party on your behalf (i.e., content that you permit, enable, induce or encourage any third party to post for you).

As explained in the definition of "Item of Content" above, for purposes of calculating liquidated damages, each flag described in clauses (a) through (c) of this section shall constitute an individual Item of Content.  See, among others, TOU ¶¶ 4.a. and 4.c.
