1. The Reality Digital Spotlight Service. The "Reality Digital Spotlight Service" is an on-demand, hosted service described at http://spotlight.realitydigital.com that enables Company to upload, manage and distribute Company's Content.

Company may change Company's selections as permitted by the Reality Digital Spotlight Service.

2. Access to the Spotlight Service. Access to Company's Account/s shall be limited by use of username/s and password/s ("Credentials") selected by Company. Company is responsible for all activity occurring in Company's Account/s.

(a) Restrictions on Use. Company covenants and agrees that it will not (i) use the Reality Digital Spotlight Service in any illegal or unlawful manner or for any illegal or unlawful purpose or (ii) perform any act which interferes with or disrupts the Reality Digital Spotlight Service. Reality Digital will not review or screen Content on a regular basis for compliance with this Agreement or applicable law, and Reality Digital shall have no obligation to do so, provided, however, that in addition to any other right Reality Digital may have, Reality Digital reserves the right to suspend Company's access to and/or use of the Reality Digital Spotlight Service to the extent that Reality Digital determines, in good faith, that such suspension is necessary to comply with applicable law or to prevent significant harm to any end user or the Reality Digital Service; provided further, however, that in such event, Reality Digital shall only suspend that portion of the Reality Digital Spotlight Service causing such violation and/or harm.

If Company fails to pay fees invoiced by Reality Digital within 15 days following the payment due date, then in addition to any other rights Reality Digital may have, Reality Digital shall have the right to suspend delivery of all or a portion of the Reality Digital Spotlight Service to Company, provided that Reality Digital has supplied Company prior notice and 5 days opportunity to cure.
