Contact Information This document, Cass Cable TV, Inc. s and Greene County Partners, Inc. s (CASSCOMM) Acceptable Use Policy ( AUP ), governs the use of Internet related services provided by CASSCOMM. All contractual terms also apply. I. INTRODUCTION In this AUP, Service(s) refers to any Internet related service you receive from CASSCOMM or its affiliates including, but not limited to, dial-up, High Speed Internet Access, Dedicated Internet access, Managed Service, web hosting, data center hosting, Enterprise hosting, or Unified Messaging. By using any Service you agree to abide by and be bound by the terms and conditions of this AUP. This AUP may be revised by CASSCOMM at any time by posting on our website. II. VIOLATION OF THIS ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY Violation of this AUP may result in CASSCOMM taking actions ranging from a warning to a suspension of privileges or termination of Services. CASSCOMM may, but is under no

obligation, to: (i) provide you with advance notice of an AUP violation, via email or otherwise, and (ii) request that such violation be immediately corrected prior to taking action. CASSCOMM reserves the right to act immediately and without notice to suspend or terminate Services (x) in response to a court order or other legal requirement that certain conduct be stopped or (y) when CASSCOMM determines, in its sole discretion, that the conduct may: Expose CASSCOMM to sanctions, prosecution, or civil action; Cause harm to, or interfere with, the integrity or normal operations of CASSCOMM s networks or facilities; Interfere with another person s use of CASSCOMM s services or the Internet; Damage or disparage the reputation of CASSCOMM or its services; or Otherwise present a risk of harm to CASSCOMM or CASSCOMM s customers or their employees, officers, directors, agents, or other representatives. CASSCOMM: (i) may refer potential violations of laws to the proper authorities; (ii) may cooperate in the investigation of any suspected criminal or civil wrong; and (iii) will cooperate with authorities when required to do so by law, subpoena, or when the public safety is at stake. CASSCOMM assumes no obligation to inform you that your information has been provided to law enforcement authorities and, in some cases, may be prohibited by law from providing such notice. CASSCOMM shall not be liable for any damages of any nature suffered by you or any other customer, user, or third party resulting in whole or in part from CASSCOMM s exercise of its rights under this AUP. III. PROHIBITED USES AND ACTIVITIES General Use Policy You are responsible for complying with the AUP. You are also responsible for the actions of others who may be using the Services under your account. You must respond in a timely manner to complaints concerning the Services. If CASSCOMM is alerted to, or otherwise

becomes aware of, violations or potential violations of this AUP, CASSCOMM will take whatever measures it deems necessary and appropriate to stop or prevent those violations. Abuse of Email; Spamming Mass emailing and "mail-bombing" (sending mass email or deliberately sending excessively large attachments to one recipient) are prohibited. Business-class accounts may have different volume limitations and usage will be judged by type of account and the use. Forging email headers (transmission information) is prohibited. Using another computer, without authorization, to send email messages or to retransmit email messages for the purpose of misleading recipients as to the origin is prohibited. Use of email to harass or intimidate other users is prohibited. Violation of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, or of any state or federal law regulating email, is a violation of this AUP and CASSCOMM reserves the right to seek damages and other available relief against you and/or any third parties as applicable. For purposes of this AUP, such violations are determined by CASSCOMM in its sole discretion. No Resale/Sharing of Services You are prohibited from reselling the Service or otherwise making the Service available to third parties (for example, through Wi-Fi or other methods of networking), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, unless expressly permitted by your Business Services Agreement. For residential accounts, you agree that you will not make the Services available to anyone other than your family and household guests. For business accounts, except as provided in an applicable Business Services Agreement, you agree that you will not make the Service available to anyone other than your business or your business authorized employees. IV. CUSTOMER CONDUCT Facilitating a Violation of this AUP You are prohibited from advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available any

software, program, product, or service that is designed to violate or facilitate a violation of this AUP and/or any law. This includes, but is not limited to, the facilitation of the means to spam, infringe on copyrights, and pirate software. Illegal Activity; Tortious Conduct Any use of the Services to violate any local, state or federal law or regulation also violates this AUP. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to: Transmitting any defamatory, libelous, fraudulent, deceptive, indecent, offensive or obscene materials; Using the Services to deliver spyware, or secretly or deceptively obtain the personal information of third parties (e.g., phishing); Intentionally spreading computer viruses; Exporting software or technical information in violation of U.S. export control laws; Gaining unauthorized access to private networks; Engaging in the transmission of pirated software; Unauthorized copying, distribution or display of copyrighted material; Conducting or participating in illegal gambling; Soliciting for illegal pyramid schemes through email or USENET postings; Conducting or participating in unsolicited advertising, promotional materials or other forms of solicitation to any person except in those areas and on those websites that are designated for such a purpose; Violating rules, regulations, and policies applicable to any network, server, computer database, web site, or ISP that you access through the Services; Threatening, harassing, abusing, or intimidating others; Engaging in activity, illegal or not, that CASSCOMM determines in its sole discretion to be harmful to its subscribers, operations, or networks;

Third Party Rules You may have access through the Services to search engines, subscription Web services, chat areas, bulletin boards, Web pages, USENET, social networking sites or other services that promulgate rules, guidelines or agreements to govern their use. Failure to adhere to any such rules, guidelines, or agreements shall be a violation of this AUP. CASSCOMM reserves the right not to accept postings from newsgroups where we have actual knowledge that the content of the newsgroup violates the AUP. No Equipment Tampering You will not service, alter, modify or tamper with any CASSCOMM Equipment or Service or permit any other person to do the same without CASSCOMM s prior authorization.

NETWORK MANAGEMENT As permitted by law, CASSCOMM may establish appropriate limitations on bandwidth, data storage, or other aspects of the Service by amending this AUP. Subscribers must comply with all such limitations prescribed by CASSCOMM.

You are required to take all necessary steps to secure and manage the use of the Services in such a way to assure that network abuse and/or fraudulent activity is prevented. Violations of system or network security may result in criminal and/or civil liability. Failing to secure your system against abuse or fraudulent activity is a violation of this AUP. You are responsible for configuring and securing your network and the Services to prevent unauthorized access to your systems and/or the CASSCOMM network. You are also responsible for any fraudulent activity that may occur due to your failure to secure your network and the Services. You will be responsible if unknown third parties utilize the Services at any time for the purpose of illegally distributing licensed software, engaging in abusive behavior or engaging in any type of fraudulent conduct. You may not, through action or inaction (e.g., failure to secure your network), allow others to use your network for illegal, fraudulent or inappropriate uses, and/or any other disruptive, provoking, or abusive behavior that is in violation of these guidelines. Responsibility for Content You are responsible for any content you offer or receive through the Service. Password Security If applicable, your password provides access to your individual account. It is your responsibility to keep your password secure. You are responsible for any and all access to or use of the Services through your account. Attempting to obtain another user's account password is prohibited. Web Hosting and Data Center Hosting Surveillance

CASSCOMM performs routine surveillance of its networks in connection with its web hosting, data center hosting, and related services. Although CASSCOMM will not, as an ordinary practice, proactively monitor your activities for violations of this AUP, there may be instances in which CASSCOMM, through its routine surveillance finds violations of this AUP, and reserves the right to take whatever action it deems appropriate in its sole discretion.
