   1. New.net Policies.
      You agree to be bound by and comply with the "New.net Policies" (which are defined to include this Agreement, the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy and the Dispute Policy, all including New.net's modifications and amendments there to which New.net may make from time to time) with respect to the Domain Names. All New.net Policies are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference and are enforceable as if written out in full in this Agreement.
      
      
   2. Fees.
      
      
      1. You will be responsible to pay for all fees associated with domain name services provided by New.net. The annual fee for registering a Domain Name will be $35. Unless otherwise terminated earlier under this Agreement, the New.net Policies or at law, the registration of the Domain Name will be for a minimum of one year. The registration may be renewed by you for additional one year periods or multiple years may be purchased in advance, each subject to early termination under this Agreement, the New.net Policies or at law, provided that you pay renewal fees by those due dates designated by New.net; it shall be your responsibility to ensure that such fees are paid. Payment must be made by credit card or such other method as we may indicate in the registration renewal form. Should these fees go unpaid by the time specified in the renewal notice, your registration will be cancelled. You agree that New.net shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to any such cancellation. All fees are non-refundable, in whole or in part, even if your domain name registration is suspended, cancelled or transferred prior to the end of your then current registration term. New.net reserves the right to change fees, surcharges, renewal fees or to institute new fees at any time, for any reason, at its sole discretion. Your requested domain name will not be registered unless we receive actual payment of the registration fee, or reasonable assurance of payment of the registration fee from some other entity (such reasonable assurance as determine d by New.net in its sole discretion).
         
         
      2. In the event of a charge back by a credit card company (or similar action by another payment provider allowed by us) in connection with the payments of the registration fee for your domain name registration or any other fee associated with the domain name services provided by us, you agree and acknowledge that the domain name registration shall be transferred to New.net as the paying entity for that registration to the registry and that we reserve all rights regarding such domain name including, without limitation, the right to make the domain name available to other parties for purchase. We will reinstate your domain name registration solely at our discretion, and subject to our receipt of the initial registration or renewal fee and our then-current reinstatement fee.

   10. Additional Registrant Representations and Warranties for ".kids" Extensions.

The registry may refuse to release any name it believes in its sole discretion is inappropriate. You further understand that if the Domain Name includes a "Kids" extension, the Web site associated with such Domain Name will always be subject to compliance with the registry's content guidelines (as they may be changed from time to time, the "Guidelines") and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), that you agree that you will comply with the Guidelines and with COPPA, that the Web site associated with the Domain Name may or may not be required to be subject to (and comply with) a compliance audit by or on behalf of the registry, and may be required to be rated by or with a content-ratings association (which may include, without limitation, the Internet Content Rating Association).

The registry and New.net each have the right to terminate this Agreement and/or cancel, suspend, transfer or modify your registration of the Domain Name immediately without prior notice if the registry or New.net, either individually, collectively or through a third party regulation mechanism, determines in its sole discretion that (i) the ".kids" Domain Name is lewd, offensive, obscene or indecent or is not otherwise "kid-friendly" or (ii) the Web site associated with the "Kids" Domain Name does not provide "kid-friendly", COPPA-compliant, and Guideline-compliant, content. In the event that the registration of the "Kids" Domain Name is suspended, canceled, transferred or modified, or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 10, you agree that you shall not be entitled to a refund of any fees or other amounts paid by you to the registry, New.net or any other business or person.
