What Is Covered:

For Replacement Plans: This Plan covers the replacement of your product in the event your product experiences a breakdown which is not covered under any other insurance policy, other warranty or service contract. We will, at our discretion, replace the product with one of like kind and quality that performs to the factory specifications of the original product or reimburse you for replacement of the product, when required due to a covered breakdown. If your product requires replacement, you will be instructed to ship your product to our authorized service center, per our instructions. NEW will pay for the cost of shipping your product to the authorized service center. At our sole discretion, we may require that you return the covered product to us as a condition to receiving a replacement product.

For Service Plans: This Plan covers parts and labor costs to repair your product in the event it experiences a breakdown which is not covered under any insurance policy or any other warranty or service contract. If in-home service is provided for the full term of your manufacturer's warranty, it will be provided under this Plan. If your product requires in-home service, a technician may be sent to your home to (1) pick up your product for repair at an authorized service center or (2) repair the product on-site. If service on your product is performed at an authorized service center, pick-up and delivery charges will not be assessed to you, but will be covered under this Plan. If in-home service is not provided, you will be responsible for delivery or the cost of delivering the product to the service center for repair or replacement. This Plan also covers up to $45.00 of the cost of installation, removal or reinstallation of the Product in connection with repair or replacement of the Product.

Repairs performed while the product is under manufacturer's warranty do not apply. Replacement of Product constitutes Plan fulfillment.

Term of Coverage:

For Replacement Plans: Your term and coverage begins upon expiration of the manufacturer's labor warranty and extends for the period indicated on your sales receipt.

For Service Plans: Depending upon the Plan you purchase, parts are covered for the period indicated on your sales receipt, beginning upon expiration of the manufacturer's parts warranty, and labor is covered for the period indicated on your sales receipt, beginning upon expiration of the manufacturer's labor warranty.

Deductible: There is no deductible required to obtain service for your covered product.

Arbitration Agreement:

Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It affects your rights. Most of your concerns about this Plan or the Program can be addressed simply by contacting us at 1-866-856-3882. In the unlikely event we cannot resolve any disputes, including any claims under this Plan, that you or we may have, YOU AND WE AGREE TO RESOLVE THOSE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT INSTEAD OF THROUGH COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. YOU AND WE AGREE TO WAIVE OUR RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. It has more limited discovery than in court and is subject to limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.

For the purpose of this arbitration agreement, references to "we" and "us" include (1) the Plan Obligor and Administrator, as defined above, and their respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, service Plan insurers, agents, employees, successors and assigns; and (2) GSI Commerce Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, successors and assigns. This Plan evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive the termination of this Plan.

This Arbitration Agreement is intended to be interpreted broadly, and it includes any dispute: (1) arising out of or relating in any way to the Program or to this Plan or to the relationship between you and us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or otherwise; (2) that arose either before this Arbitration Agreement or Plan was entered into by you and us or that arises after this Arbitration Agreement or Plan is terminated; and (3) that currently is the subject of a purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing an individual action in small claims court or from informing any federal, state or local agencies or entities of your dispute. Such agencies or entities may be able to seek relief on your behalf.

If you or we intend to seek arbitration you and we must first send to the other a written Notice of Claim ("Notice") by certified mail. Your Notice to Us should be addressed to: Legal Department, 22660 Executive Drive, Suite 122, Sterling VA 20166. The Notice must describe the dispute and state the specific relief sought. If you and we do not resolve the dispute within 30 days of receipt of the Notice, you or we may initiate an arbitration proceeding with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). You can obtain the forms necessary to initiate an arbitration proceeding by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. After we receive notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will reimburse you for payment of any filing fee to the AAA. If you are unable to pay a required filing fee, we will pay it if you send a written request by certified mail to: Legal Department: 22660 Executive Drive, Suite 122, Sterling VA 20166. The arbitration shall be administered by the AAA in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the "Arbitration Rules") in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated and as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You can obtain a copy of the Arbitration Rules by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

The arbitrator appointed by the AAA to decide the dispute is bound by the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Arbitration Agreement, with the exception that issues relating to the enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement may be decided by a court. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county or parish of your billing address. If your dispute is for $10,000 or less, you may choose to conduct the arbitration hearings either by submitting documents to the arbitrator or by appearing before the arbitrator in person or by telephone. If your dispute is for more than $10,000, the right to arbitration hearings will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. We will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement, unless your dispute is found by the arbitrator to have been frivolous or brought for an improper purpose under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). In that case, the payment of such fees shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules.

At the conclusion of the arbitration hearings, the arbitrator shall issue a written decision which includes an explanation of the facts and law upon which the decision is based. If the arbitrator finds in your favor and issues a damages award that is greater than the value of the last settlement offer made by us or if we made no settlement offer and the arbitrator awards you any damages, we will: (1) pay you the amount of the damages award or $7,500, whichever is greater; and (2) pay your attorney, if any, twice the amount of the attorney's fees and the actual amount of any expenses reasonably incurred when pursuing your dispute in arbitration. You and we agree not to disclose any settlement offers to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has issued the written decision. The arbitrator may resolve any disputes regarding attorney's fees and expenses either during the arbitration hearings or, upon request, within 14 days of the arbitrator's written decision. While the right to the attorney's fees and expenses discussed above is in addition to any right you may have under applicable law, neither you nor your attorney may recover duplicate awards of attorney's fees and expenses. Although we may have the right under applicable law to recover attorney's fees and expenses from you if we prevail in the arbitration, we hereby waive the right to do so.

TO THE EXTENT EITHER DECLARATORY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IS SOUGHT IN THE ARBITRATION, SUCH RELIEF CAN BE AWARDED ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE THE RELIEF WARRANTED BY A PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. UNLESS YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE THE DISPUTE OF ANOTHER PERSON WITH YOUR OR OUR DISPUTE AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISION OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.

If we cancel this Plan due to fraud or material misrepresentation, you will be notified thirty (30) days prior to cancellation. If we cancel this Plan due to nonpayment, you will be notified ten (10) days prior to Plan cancellation.

WASHINGTON RESIDENTS: Obligations of the Obligor under this Plan are backed by the full faith and credit of the Obligor. The Arbitration Agreement Section is amended to provide that any binding arbitration will be held at a location closest to your permanent residence.

Wisconsin Residents: THIS PLAN IS SUBJECT TO LIMITED REGULATION BY THE WISCONSIN OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OF INSURANCE. This Plan shall not be cancelled due to unauthorized repair of the covered equipment, unless we are prejudiced by your failure to obtain such authorization. If this Plan is canceled, no deduction shall be made from the refund for the cost of any service received. Section 19 of the "What is not Covered" section of this Plan does not apply.

Wyoming Residents: This Plan will be considered void and we will refund you the full purchase price of the Plan or credit your account if you have not made a claim under this Plan and you have returned the Plan to us a) within 20 days after the date we have mailed the Plan to you, b) within 10 days after you have received the Plan if the Plan was furnished to you at the time the Plan was purchased, or c) within a longer time period if specified in the Plan. A ten percent (10%) penalty per month shall be added to a refund that is not paid or credited within forty-five (45) days after return of the Plan to us. The right to void the Plan provided in this subsection applies only to the original Plan purchaser and is not transferable. If we cancel this Plan for reasons other than nonpayment, a material misrepresentation made by you to us or because of a substantial breach of duties by you relating to the product or its use, we will mail a written notice to you at least ten (10) days prior to cancellation. The notice of cancellation shall state the effective date of cancellation and the reason for cancellation. In the event covered service is not provided by us within sixty (60) days of proof of loss by you, you are entitled to apply directly to the reimbursement insurance company. The Arbitration Agreement provision in this Plan is replaced with the following: "If there are disputes between you and us that are not resolved by negotiations, you and we may in a separate written agreement voluntarily consent to arbitration. Any arbitration proceedings shall be conducted within the state of Wyoming."
