You will be provided a website, maintained by us, on the domain www.floorstogo.com for each of your FTG Showrooms. In addition, you will have access to several additional pages, which may be customized for your Showroom. The content of these customized pages and any changes thereto will be subject to our prior review and written approval. From time to time, additional features and benefits may be added to the website, for which we reserve the right to charge a fee to assist in covering costs, including, but not limited to, the costs of developing, implementing and maintaining said features and benefits. In addition, we reserve the right to require you to use "Floors To Go" in your fictitious trade name and make it a permanent part of your exterior signage. If you choose to develop an independent website, it must comply with our trademark, service mark, logo and advertising requirements, as well as any of our applicable policies and procedures. Therefore, among other things, you must (i) obtain our prior written approval of any Internet domain name and home page addresses used for your independent website, (ii) obtain our prior written approval of all hyperlinks and other links to appear on your independent website, and (iii) restrict your use of any materials in which any third party has any interest. Upon your request and our prior written approval, if you include "Floors To Go" in your fictitious trade name and make it a permanent part of your exterior signage, a hyperlink to your independent website will be placed on the website that we maintain for your Showroom.
