In connection with delivering and providing to RMCA any such content or

perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicenseable right and license (through
multiple tiers) to copy, distribute, create derivative works from, display,
modify, reformat, transmit, and otherwise use any such content or information
as necessary in connection with the RMCA WebSite and RMCA's service obligations
in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed for the full
term of any rights that may exist in such content or information. With respect to any such content or
information, you must also obtain at your sole expense all necessary consents,
rights, permissions, and clearances (and provide RMCA with reasonable proof
thereof (if requested)) required for RMCA to use such content or information in
connection with RMCA's services and the RMCA WebSite. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree
that RMCA shall not be responsible for any failures, inoperability, delays, or
problems caused by your failure to provide any necessary content or information

responsibility for the deletion of or failure to store any content or
information.
5.
OTHER TERMS AND
CONDITIONS. Additional notices, terms, and
conditions may apply to membership, receipt of services, participation in a
particular program, conference, training, or seminar, Authorized User
registration with the RMCA WebSite, and/or to other specific portions or
features of the RMCA WebSite, all of which are made a part of this TOS by this
reference. In particular, this
TOS, in and of itself, shall not entitle you to any of the RMCA membership
benefits until you execute and RMCA accepts RMCA's members services agreement
with RMCA. You agree to abide by
such other notices, terms, and conditions. If there is a conflict between this TOS and the terms posted
for or applicable to a specific portion of the RMCA WebSite, the latter terms
shall control with respect to your use of that portion of the RMCA WebSite. RMCA's obligations, if any, with
respect to its services, programs, and/or products are governed solely by the
terms, conditions, notices, and agreements pursuant to which they are provided,
and nothing on this TOS should be construed to alter such terms, conditions,
notices, and agreements.
6.
DIRECTORY. RMCA may make available through the RMCA
WebSite an on-line directory of RMCA member information (the "RMCA
Directory"). In addition to
any other terms and conditions set forth in this TOS, you acknowledge and agree
that the RMCA Directory shall be used only for personal purposes and that any
information of the RMCA Directory shall not be further published, displayed, or
made accessible. Accordingly,
unless RMCA has provided its prior written consent, you acknowledge and agree
that the contents of the RMCA Directory may not, in whole or in part, be
reproduced, copied, disseminated, entered into a computer database, used as
part of or in connection with a mailing list, or otherwise utilized, in any
form or manner or by any means inconsistent with this TOS. You also acknowledge that a person or
entity's listing in the RMCA Directory represents only that such person or

or warranties regarding any such person or entity (or the related information)
listed in the RMCA Directory, and any information made available through the RMCA
Directory is provided on an "AS-IS" and "AS-AVAILABLE"
basis without warranty of any kind.
7.
USER NAME HANDLING
POLICY. Registration as an Authorized User for
access to certain areas of the RMCA WebSite may require both a user name and a
password. Only one Authorized User
can use one user name and password and, thus, one account. By limiting access, it helps avoid unauthorized
usage by other persons or entities because anyone with knowledge of both your
user name and password can gain entry to the RMCA WebSite and to your
account. Accordingly, by using the
RMCA WebSite, you agree to consider your user name and password as confidential
information and to keep your user name and password confidential. You also agree not to use another Authorized
User's user name and password. You
will immediately notify RMCA if you become aware of any loss or theft of your
password or any unauthorized use of your user name and password. RMCA cannot and will not be liable for
any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these
obligations. RMCA reserves the
right to delete or change a user name or password at any time and for any
reason.
8.
PRIVACY POLICY. You understand, acknowledge, and agree
that the operation of certain areas of the RMCA WebSite requires the
submission, use, and dissemination of various personal identifying
information. Accordingly, if you
wish to access and use those areas of the RMCA WebSite, you acknowledge and
agree that your use of the RMCA WebSite will constitute acceptance of RMCA's
personal identifying information collection and use practices. Please see RMCA's Privacy Policy
for a summary of RMCA's personal identifying information
collection and use practices.

without notice or permission from you, including, without limitation, by
archiving notices or communications sent by you through the RMCA WebSite. Any information obtained by monitoring,

MISCELLANEOUS. You acknowledge that any breach,
threatened or actual, of this TOS will cause irreparable injury to RMCA, such
injury would not be quantifiable in monetary damages, and RMCA would not have
an adequate remedy at law. You
therefore agree that RMCA shall be entitled, in addition to other available
remedies, to seek and be awarded an injunction or other appropriate equitable
relief from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining any breach,
threatened or actual, of your obligations under any provision of this TOS. Accordingly, you hereby waive any
requirement that RMCA post any bond or other security in the event any
injunctive or equitable relief is sought by or awarded to RMCA to enforce any
provision of this TOS. The parties
agree that this TOS is for the benefit of the parties hereto as well as RMCA's
licensors. Accordingly, this TOS
is personal to you, and you may not assign your rights or obligations to any
other person or entity without RMCA's prior written consent. Failure by RMCA to insist on strict
performance of any of the terms and conditions of this TOS will not operate as
a waiver by RMCA of that or any subsequent default or failure of
performance. A printed version of this
TOS and of any related notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in
judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this TOS to
the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents
and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. If any provision (or part thereof)
contained in this TOS is determined to be void, invalid, or otherwise
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or on account of a conflict
with an applicable government regulation, such determination shall not affect
the remaining provisions (or parts thereof) contained herein and the illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable clause shall be modified in compliance with
applicable law in a manner that most closely matches the intent of the original
language. No joint venture,
partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and RMCA as
result of this TOS or your utilization of the RMCA WebSite. Headings herein are for convenience
only. This TOS, along with the RMCA's
Privacy Policy, represents the entire agreement between you and RMCA
with respect to use of the RMCA WebSite, and it supersedes all prior or
contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or
written between you and RMCA with respect to the RMCA WebSite. Unless otherwise agreed to by RMCA,
please note that RMCA reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of this
TOS and the manner under which the RMCA WebSite (and its functionality) is
extended to you by providing you notice or a copy of such revised terms. RMCA may also change or modify any
aspect of the RMCA WebSite. Your
continued use of the RMCA WebSite will be conclusively deemed acceptance of any
change to this TOS or the RMCA WebSite.
