H. Unauthorized access. Using the services to access, or to attempt to access, the accounts of others, or to penetrate, or attempt to
penetrate, security measures of Autonet Mobile, Inc’s or another entity’s computer software or hardware, electronic
communications system, or telecommunications system, whether or not the intrusion results in the corruption or loss of data.

I. Copyright or trademark infringement. Using the services to transmit any material (by e-mail, uploading, posting, or otherwise) that
Infringes any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or other proprietary rights of any third party, Including, but not limited
to, the unauthorized copying of copyrighted material, the digitization and distribution of photographs from magazines, books,
or other copyrighted sources, and the unauthorized transmittal of copyrighted software. Autonet Mobile, Inc. is registered under
the digital millennium copyright act of 1998.

J. Collection of personal data. Using the services to collect, or attempt to collect, personal information about third parties without

their knowledge or consent.

K. Reselling the services. Reselling the services without Autonet Mobile’s authorization.

L. Network disruptions and unfriendly activity. Using the services for any activity which adversely affects the ability of other people
or systems to use Autonet Mobile, Inc services or the internet. This Includes “denial of service” (dos) attacks against another network
host or individual user. Interference with or disruption of other network users, network services or network equipment is prohibited.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that their network is configured in a secure manner. A user may not, through action or inaction,
allow others to use their network for illegal or inappropriate actions. A user may not permit their network, through action or inaction,
to be configured in such a way that gives a third party the capability to use their network in an illegal or inappropriate manner.

M. News. Autonet Mobile users should use their best judgment when posting to any newsgroup. Many groups have charters,
published guidelines, faqs, or “community standards” describing what is and is not considered appropriate. Usenet can be a
valuable resource if used properly. The continued posting of off-topic articles is prohibited. Commercial advertisements are off- topic
in most newsgroups, especially regional groups not specifically named for such. The presence of such articles in a group is not
indicative of the group’s “intended” use. Please familiarize yourself with basic usenet netiquette before posting to a newsgroup.

Autonet Mobile considers “multiposting” to 10 or more groups within a two week sliding window to be excessive. Autonet
Mobile servers currently limit the number of allowable “cross-posts” to 9.

Autonet Mobile users may not cancel messages other than their own messages. A user may cancel posts forged in that user’s
name. We may cancel any postings which violate this AUP.

N. Long connections and multiple logins. Using a personal account for high volume or commercial use is prohibited. The
services are intended for periodic, active use of e-mail, newsgroups, file transfers, internet chat, games, and browsing the
world wide web. Users may stay connected so long as they are actively using that connection for the above purposes.
Users may not use the services on a standby or inactive basis in order to maintain a connection. Pinging is expressly
prohibited. Accordingly, Autonet Mobile, Inc maintains the right to terminate any member’s connection following any
extended period of inactivity as determined by Autonet Mobile, Inc.
