Vendor Update Program: ---------------------- Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files. They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot afford to mail disks to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors. However, some vendors prefer to obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would like to obtain programs directly from us, automatically, then please help us to cover the cost. If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you would still like to receive automatic updates directly from us, then please take advantage of our Vendor Update Program. Under this program you can receive updates for an entire year for only US$10 per program (this helps to offset our costs). Vendor/Distributor Information Page 5 of 6 EXOPLEX INTRANET PUBLISHER, Version 0.30 - Vendor.TXT To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name, company name, mailing address, the name of the person we should contact (such as your disk librarian), the program (or programs) for which you would like to receive updates, and a check or money order for US$10 for each program (Countries outside of North America please add an additional US$10 per program). Payment drawn on U.S. or Australian banks only please. The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products (as of October, 1997): Exoplex Intranet Publisher v0.30 All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will automatically receive any NEW programs which we may release while their Vendor Update Program is in effect. NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates and do not need to apply for the Vendor Update Program. This is yet another advantage to being an ASP Associate Member. The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the program directly from us. If you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may prefer not to use our Vendor Update Program. Vendor/Distributor Information Page 6 of 6
