CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT
INFRINGEMENT
The Digital Millennium
Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for
copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet
infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you have a good
faith belief that materials hosted by us infringe your copyright, you
(or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be
removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the
following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a
person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right
that is allegedly being infringed upon; (b) identification of the
copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed upon (or if multiple
copyrighted works located on the Site are covered by a single
notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification
of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of
infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow us
to locate the material on the Site; (d) the name, address, telephone
number, and e-mail address (if available) of the complaining party;
(e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief
that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized
by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement
that the information in the notification is accurate, and under
penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on
behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement
has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a
counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current
statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/
for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site
should be sent to LINKSTOJOBS, 3 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016, (tel)
212-725-6550, (fax) 212-725-9127, Attention: Vice President &
General Counsel. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before
filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be
penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or
eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement
shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

relinquishment of any similar right or power at any subsequent time.
This Agreement constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the
subject matter hereof, and any and all written or oral agreements
heretofore existing between the parties hereto are expressly canceled.
This Agreement is not assignable, transferable or sub-licensable by
