The publisher will not be bound by any conditions, printed or otherwise, appearing on any order blank, insertion order or contract when they conflict with the terms and conditions of this rate card or any amendment of it.
General Rate Policy
To earn volume or frequency rates, a signed contract or order must be received and accepted by the publisher within six months of the first insertion and advertising must be inserted within one year from the effective date of the contract or order. If an advertising contract or order is exceeded or not fulfilled, the rate charged will be adjusted to the rate earned within 60 days after the termination of the contract period. Nonpayment of invoices may result in the termination of an advertising contract and a corresponding adjustment in the rate(s) charged. The publisher reserves the right, at any time and for any reason, to decline any advertising copy and to cease further publication of any advertising without rate penalty to the advertiser. Only the publication of an advertisement shall constitute final acceptance of the advertiser's order.
The publisher shall in no event be liable for failure to publish advertising when specified by the advertiser, provided that, if no advertising is published, any charges therefore received by the publisher shall be refunded.
The publisher reserves the right to revise, on notice of 30 days, any rates, terms and conditions of this rate card applicable to contract advertisers. Revisions affecting non-contract advertising may be made without notice.

Commission, Credit Terms and Payments
Advertising agencies recognized by the publisher receive a commission of 15% of gross.
