2. If Agency enters into this Agreement on behalf of Advertiser, Agency and Advertiser acknowledge that Agency is the duly appointed and authorized agent of Advertiser for all purposes related to this Agreement, and that Agency and Advertiser shall be jointly and severally liable and responsible for all obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, payment obligations.
3. Advertiser and Agency, if applicable, are individually and collectively referred to herein as “Purchaser”. In the event Purchaser is a manufacturer of alcohol (a “Manufacturer”) or a Manufacturer’s representative (a “Manufacturer Representative”), the term “Purchaser” shall also refer to the Manufacturer’s Representative or the Manufacturer, respectively.
4. This Agreement applies to all advertising and sponsorship campaigns (each, a “Campaign”) agreed to between Rogers and Purchaser, including (a) insertion orders and/or sales contracts; (b) sponsorships and other arrangements involving content integration and/or production; and (c) digital advertising. Each contract between the parties in respect of a particular Campaign element, whether documented by means of insertion order or by some other means, is referred to herein as an “Order”, and the specific terms contained in each such Order are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
5. In the case of an Order for digital advertising: (a) the standard terms of the Interactive Advertising Bureau of Canada (“IAB”) accepted by Rogers are set out in Schedule “C” attached hereto (the “Applicable IAB Terms”) and are incorporated into this Agreement; (b) additional reporting requirements, impressions or other performance criteria, any special ad delivery scheduling and/or ad placement restrictions or requirements, and any additional specifications concerning ownership of data collected and/or materials may be documented in a separate document that is incorporated into this Agreement; and (c) Purchaser shall comply with Applicable Laws (as defined below) and IAB 3.0 data collection privacy requirements, as may be amended from time to time, related to Purchaser’s collection, storage and use of advertising data. Rogers may delete or edit software or other content for the purpose of enforcing its data policy or as part of its tag management program.
6. In the case of an Order for conventional television advertising, Purchaser acknowledges that all television advertising may be included in replay telecasts of programming on a video on demand basis for seven days after the original telecast.

2. PAYMENT

1. Subject to subsection 2.2, the following payment terms shall apply:
   1. Purchaser shall pre-pay for its advertising purchase except with approval from Rogers’ credit department or as otherwise set forth in an Order. Rogers may invoice Purchaser separately for its fees in its sole discretion.  Payments are due within 30 days of delivery of each applicable invoice.  Unless otherwise specified in a particular Order, fees set out in each Order do not include taxes.  Rogers shall supply Purchaser with certified statements of performance on request.  For national network television purchases, Rogers will supply statements for the Ontario region only, but details for other regions shall be made available on request.
   2. Rogers reserves the right to change its advertising rates at any time.
   3. Purchaser shall notify Rogers in writing of any discrepancies in invoicing within 20 days of receipt of the invoice, failing which Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the invoice.
   4. If Purchaser disputes a portion of an invoice, Purchaser shall remit the undisputed portion of the invoice, and acceptance by Rogers of such portion shall in no way be construed as an admission by Rogers of the validity of Purchaser’s dispute.
   5. Rogers reserves the right to impose a late payment charge of 2% per month, calculated and compounded monthly on the delinquent amount (26.8% per year) from the date of first invoice until the date Rogers receives such amount in full.
   6. Rogers reserves the right to charge a $30 administrative charge for returned or rejected payments including insufficient funds.
   7. Neither Advertiser nor Agency shall set-off or deduct amounts from payments owing to Rogers as set out in the invoices except with the prior written consent of Rogers.
2. Where the financial terms of a Campaign include contra, this subsection 2 shall apply:
   1. Purchaser shall provide Rogers with Purchaser’s goods and/or services detailed in the Order(s) and, in exchange, Rogers shall provide Purchaser with the advertising services detailed in the Order(s). All contra is based on availability.
   2. Each party hereby confirms that the goods and/or services exchanged for advertising constitute a barter transaction for tax purposes and that the value of such barter for tax purposes is based on the amounts set out in the Order(s). For each Campaign, each party hereby agrees to issue an invoice to the other party, which shall set forth the total amount of the applicable taxes payable in connection with the barter transaction and which shall be due and payable on the date of invoice in respect of the Order.  The parties further agree that if, and to the extent that, the amount of taxes charged by the parties does not net zero, the party charging the greater amount of taxes shall collect from the other party the amount of any such difference.
   3. Each party shall be responsible for properly accounting and remitting to the applicable taxing authority any and all applicable taxes properly payable in connection with the provision of such party’s respective supplies.

   4. Each of the parties acknowledges that it is duly registered for GST/HST and QST as applicable under the registration numbers set forth in the Order(s).
3. Rogers reserves the right to conduct credit inquiries on Advertiser and/or Agency to establish creditworthiness at any time if, in Rogers’ sole opinion, there are grounds for questioning whether such party continues to be creditworthy. Advertiser and Agency shall authorize any third party to convey any financial information about either of them to Rogers at its request. In the event that Rogers determines, in its sole discretion, that the credit of either Agency or Advertiser is unsatisfactory, Rogers shall have the right in its absolute discretion to change the payment terms.
4. Rogers shall not be responsible for the payment of commissions to Agency (if any). Any references to an agency commission on invoices from Rogers are discounts provided to agency and shall not be construed as a commission payable by Rogers to agency in any manner.

3. The form and content of all Campaign material and use of Purchaser Material must be approved and accepted by both Rogers and Purchaser. Purchaser shall provide Rogers with any comments and/or requested changes respecting such material in writing within three business days of receipt of such material (or such other time period specified by Rogers).  If no requested changes are received within such time period, the Campaign material shall be deemed to have been approved by Purchaser.  If requested changes are received within such time period, Rogers shall make one round of changes in respect of broadcast (television and radio) material, and up to three rounds of changes in respect of digital advertising material.  The number of rounds of changes in respect of print material shall be determined by Rogers, in its sole discretion, depending on the scope of the Campaign.  Should additional rounds of changes be requested by Purchaser, additional fees may apply.

1. IO Details. From time to time, parties may negotiate one or more IO’s under which a Media Company will deliver Ad(s) to Site(s) for the benefit of an Agency and/or Advertiser. An IO may either be submitted by Agency to Media Company, signed by Media Company and returned to Agency, or be submitted by Media Company, signed by Agency or Advertiser, as applicable, and returned to Media Company. In either case, an IO will be binding only if accepted as provided in Section II(b) below. Each IO shall specify:

• • (a) the type(s) and amount(s) of Deliverables; (b) the price(s) for such Deliverables;
  • (c) the maximum amount of money to be spent pursuant to the IO (if applicable), (d) the start and end dates of the campaign, and

Full disclosure includes all Ad Servers being used, including Rich Media Ad Servers, and any exceptions made (e.g. if Video is not being third party served).Other items that may be included are, but are not limited to: reporting requirements such as impressions (including any caps thereon) or other performance criteria; any special Ad delivery scheduling and/or Ad placement requirements; the use of any data verification analysis (including viewability metrics) and how that will affect discrepancies   and/or   billing;   and   specifications   concerning   ownership   of   data collected.
• Availability; Acceptance. Media Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to notify Agency within two (2) business days of receipt of an IO signed by Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, if the specified inventory is not availab Acceptance of the IO and these Terms will be made upon the earlier of (a) written (which, unless otherwise specified, for purposes of these Terms shall include paper, fax, or e-mail communication) approval of the IO by both Media Company and Advertiser or Agency, as applicable; or (b) the display of the first Ad impression by Media Company, unless otherwise agreed upon in the IO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, modifications to the originally submitted IO will not be binding unless signed by both parties.
• Revisions. Revisions to accepted IOs must be made in writing and acknowledged by the other party in writing.

III. AD PLACEMENT AND POSITIONING

• Compliance with IO. Media Company will comply with the IO, including all Ad placement restrictions, and, except as set forth in Section VII(c) below, will create a reasonably balanced delivery schedule. Media Company will provide, within the scope of the IO, an Ad to the Site specified on the IO when such Site is visited by an Internet user. Any exceptions to this will be approved by the Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
• Changes to  Site.  Unless  otherwise  specified  in  the  IO,  Media  Company  will  use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Agency at least 10 business days prior notification of any material changes to the Site that would materially change the target audience. Should such a modification occur, upon notice Agency or Advertiser, as applicable, shall have the right to cancel the remainder of the IO without penalty, provided that any such cancellation must  occur  within  the  10-business  day  notice  period.  Should  such  a  modification  occur without notice, Agency and Advertiser shall have the right to cancel the remainder of the IO without penalty upon discovery of the modifications and shall be entitled to a return of applicable funds paid under the IO from the date such modifications were made up to the date of cancellation, provided that any such cancellation must occur within 10 business days of Agency or Advertiser discovering of the modifications.
• Technical Specifications. Media Company will submit or otherwise make electronically accessible to Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, within two (2) business days of acceptance of an IO’s final technical specifications, as agreed upon by the parti Changes to the specifications of the already purchased Ads after that two (2) business day period will allow Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, to suspend (without impacting the end date unless otherwise agreed by the parties) delivery of the affected Ad for a reasonable time in order to either (i) send revised Advertising Materials; (ii) request that Media Company resize the Ad at Media Company’s cost, and with final creative approval of Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, within a reasonable time period to fulfill the guaranteed levels of the IO; (iii) accept a comparable replacement; or (iv) if the parties are unable to negotiate an alternate or comparable replacement in good faith within five (5) business days, immediately cancel the remainder of the IO for the affected Ad without penalty.
• Editorial Adjacencies. Media Company acknowledges that certain Advertisers may not want their Ads placed adjacent to content that promotes pornography, violence, or the use of firearms, contains obscene language, or falls within another category stated on the IO (“Editorial  Adjacency  Guidelines”).    Media  Company  will  use  commercially  reasonable efforts  to  comply  with  the  Editorial  Adjacency  Guidelines  with  respect  to  Ad  delivery; although Media Company will at all times retain editorial control over the Media Company Properties. As Advertiser’s and Agency’s sole remedy for a violation of the Editorial Adjacency Guidelines (i) if Media Company is notified of such violation within 30 days (not business days) of discovery of the violation, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, shall be entitled to a refund, makegood or other agreement as reasonably agreed upon between the parties; and (ii) after Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, provides Media Company with written notice that specific Ads are in violation of such Editorial Adjacency Guidelines, Media Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to correct such violation as soon as possible.
  In the event that Agency or Advertiser, as applicable, acting at all times reasonably and in good faith, believes that the violation of the Editorial Adjacency Guidelines or such correction materially and adversely impacts the IO, the parties will negotiate in good faith mutually agreed changes to such IO to address such impairment. In the event that the parties cannot reach agreement on such changes within five (5) business days from the implementation of such correction, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, or Media Company may, upon the conclusion of such five (5) business day period, immediately cancel such IO, without penalty.For any page on a Site that primarily consists of user-generated content, the preceding paragraph will not apply. Instead, Media Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Ads are not placed adjacent to content that violates the Site’s terms of use. Advertiser’s and Agency’s sole remedy for Media Company’s breach of such obligation will be to submit written complaints to Media Company, which will review such complaints and remove user-generated content that Media Company, in its sole discretion, determines is objectionable or in violation of such Site’s terms of use.

   1. 10 business days prior written notice, without penalty, for guaranteed and nonguaranteed inventory. Cancellations received within 10 business days prior to the serving of the first impression of the IO are subject to a 10 day sliding scale of required payment. (For clarity and by way of example, if Advertiser or Agency cancels the IO five (5) business days prior to the serving of the first impression, Advertiser will only be responsible for payment for the first five (5) days of the IO.)
   2. 30 days (not business days) prior written notice for flat-fee based or fixed placements (e.g. roadblocks). Advertiser is liable to Media Company for any amounts due for any custom content or development (e.g. a microsite) prior to termination. Said amounts should be separate line items in the IO.
      
2. After Campaign Launch. Unless designated on the IO as non-cancelable, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, may cancel the entire IO, or any portion thereof upon the serving of the first impression of the IO or any time thereafter, without penalty, by providing Media Company written notice of cancellation which will be effective after the later of:
   1. 10 business days after serving the first impression of the IO; or
   2. five (5) business days after providing Media Company with such written notice.
      Advertiser will be responsible for payment for the total number of days that the Advertising Materials were executed.

4. Short rates may apply to cancelled buys to the degree stated on the IO.
5. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in VI. CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION or elsewhere in these Terms, the cancellation of an IO will not relieve Agency or Advertiser from its payment obligations  to  Media  Partner  in  situations  where  an  IO  or  any  separate agreement entered into by Media Partner and Agency or Advertiser specifies that Media Partner shall be paid specified amounts for customized solutions associated with a campaign including without limitation, acquisition of content or other products/services from one or more Third Parties, the creation of a microsite, and any special sponsorship opportunity created by Media Partner for the benefit of Agency or Advertiser.
6. Expiration or termination of these Terms shall not release the parties from any liability or obligation which, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued or which thereafter may accrue with respect to any act or omission before termination, or from any obligation which is expressly stated in these Terms to survive termination.

VII. MAKEGOODS

1. Notification of Under-Delivery. Media Company shall monitor delivery of the Ads, and shall notify Agency either electronically or in writing as soon as possible (and no later than five (5) business days before IO end date unless the length of the campaign is less than five (5) business days) if Media Company believes that an under-delivery is likely. In the case of a probable or actual under-delivery, the parties may arrange for a mutually agreeable form of makegood consistent with these Terms.
2. Guaranteed Deliverables – Makegood Procedure. In the event that actual Deliverables for any campaign fall below guaranteed levels, as set forth in  the IO,  and/or if  there is  an omission of any Ad (placement or creative unit), Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, and Media Company will use good faith efforts to agree upon the conditions of a makegood flight either in the IO or at the time of the shortf If no makegood can be agreed upon, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, may execute a credit equal to the value of the under-delivered portion of the applicable IO for which it was charged. In the event that Agency or Advertiser has made a cash prepayment to Media Company, specifically for the campaign IO for which under-delivery applies, then if Agency and/or Advertiser has no overdue and outstanding amounts  owing  to  Media  Company  under  any  other  agreement  for  such  Advertiser, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, may elect to receive a refund for the under-delivery equal to the difference between the applicable pre-payment and the value of the delivered portion of the campaign. In no event shall Media Company provide a makegood or extend any Ad beyond the period set forth in the IO without prior written consent of Advertiser or Agency, as applicable.
3. Unguaranteed, Flat-Fee, and/or Time-Blocked Deliverables. If delivery of a campaign has not been guaranteed by Media Company (by way of example only, if an IO contains CPA Deliverables, CPC Deliverables,  or  has  been  purchased  on  a  flat-fee  or  for  a  certain time-block), the predictability, forecasting, and conversions for such Deliverables may vary and guaranteed delivery, even-delivery, and makegoods are not availabl

For clarity, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, will not be charged by Media Company for any additional Ads above any level capped in the IO.As stated in Section VII(c), unguaranteed inventory is not subject to bonus inventory.
2. Bonus Impressions Without Third Party Ad Server. Where Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, does not utilize a Third Party Ad Server, Media Company may bonus as many Ad units as Media Company chooses unless otherwise indicated on the IO. Advertiser or Agency, as applicable, will not be charged by Media Company for any additional advertising units above any level capped in the IO.

Said amounts should be separate line items in the IO.

• Media Company will track delivery through its own ad server and billing for campaigns will be based off of Media Company’s ad server numbers unless the Media Company expressly agrees in writing to bill off of Agency’s Third Party Ad Server numbers in the IO. Agency may also wish to track delivery through its proprietary or subcontracted Third Party Ad Server whose identity is set forth in the IO. Agency must disclose all Third Party Ad Servers being used by it for the campaign.

If the discrepancy cannot be resolved by both parties and Agency has made a good faith effort to facilitate the reconciliation effort, the Advertiser’s or Agency’s Third Party Ad Server measurement will be used with a maximum adjustment of 10%. (NOTE: Discrepancies may be increased with the use of data verification companies; ensure this is understood by all parties upon drafting the IO.)The 10% discrepancy is applicable to each individual line item in the IO.

RESPONSIBILITY:

If final, Advertiser-approved, fully-functional Advertising Material is not received by the Online Media Company according to the due dates above, the creative will be considered LATE, and the following will apply:

• Although the Advertiser still “owns” the ad impressions, space and time period that the original Online ad was slated to run (i. Online Media Companies cannot re-sell this space while the Advertiser seeks to remedy the late creative), unless the Advertiser or their Agency has supplied a “STAND-IN GIF or JPG AD” (see below), to run in place of the late creative, Media Companies have the right to run a “STAND-IN PSA AD” in place of the late creative.
• The Advertiser and their Agency has effectively “lost” all ad impressions which run (regardless of whether they run as a “STAND-IN GIF or JPG AD” or a “STAND-IN PSA AD”), while the Advertiser’s intended creative remains outstanding.
• The Advertiser and their Agency will be billed for all impressions purchased pursuant to the original Insertion Order, regardless of whether these impressions featured the intended creative, a “STAND-IN GIF or JPG AD” or a “STAND-IN PSA AD”.
• Media Companies do not “owe” Advertisers and their Agency any impressions which run featuring a “STAND-IN GIF or JPG AD” or a “STAND-IN PSA AD”.
• If Additional impressions are required to meet Advertiser/Agency goals, additional space and impressions must be booked and purchased in addition to the original IO (assuming the inventory is available).
