Effective Date            3/18/04
                          -------
PPA TERMS AND CONDITIONS

PPA Term: One (1) year from Effective Date. Each 12 month period beginning on
the Effective Date is referred to herein as a "Contract Year." However, Customer
shall have the option to extend the term for an additional twelve (12) month
period upon delivery of written notice to D&B on or before August 31, 2004. Such
additional 12 month period shall include Contract Year 2, the pricing for which
is set forth below.

Customer shall have access to all products and services listed on attached
Appendix A ("Included Services"), subject to the following:


1.       In consideration of Customer's payment of the PPA Fee for each Contract
         Year, Customer shall be entitled to receive an unlimited amount of
         Included Services, subject to usage limits on selected products and
         services included within the Included Services (which limits are
         referred to as "Product Usage Limits"), determined by reference to the
         applicable pricing set forth below (subject to Customer's band discount
         set forth below);

2.       Any use of Included Services in excess of the applicable Product Usage
         Limits during a particular Contract Year shall be billed to Customer at
         the above referenced pricing, including applicable band discount;


3.       The use of Included Services under this Agreement applies to Customer
         as it exists today, and may be used only to support Customer's U.S.
         business, and may be used by Customer's U.S. parent, divisions and
         wholly owned subsidiaries that are identified on a "Schedule of
         Locations of Service and Customer Related Companies" attached hereto
         and executed by the parties ("Included Entities") to support their
         respective U.S. businesses, provided Customer is liable for such
         Included Entities' compliance with the PPA and Master Agreement. Any
         change to Customer via merger or acquisition shall require a written
         addendum between D&B and Customer to reflect such change, which
         addendum shall include the applicable revised PPA Fee schedule. Future
         acquisitions by Customer of, or future acquisitions of Customer by,
         companies with a D&B credit information contract ("Acquired/Acquiring
         Companies") shall not be included in this Agreement. Acquired/Acquiring
         Companies shall continue to receive D&B services pursuant to the terms
         and conditions of the respective D&B credit information contract
         ("Credit Contract") and shall not be included as an Included Entity
         under this PPA, until the expiration of such Credit Contract and the
         execution of an addendum to this PPA as referenced above;


4.       Any use of Included Services by Customer's affiliates other than
         Included Entities shall be the subject of a separate, mutually agreed
         amendment to this PPA; and


5.       Customer's use of D&B products and services other than Included
         Services, if any, shall be the subject of separate Orders executed by
         the parties, each of which shall be subject to, and incorporate by
         reference therein, the terms of the Master Agreement.

MASTER AGREEMENT  (MA-01-02)                                        (D & B LOGO)


Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. ("D&B") and the customer named on the attached Order
("Customer") agree that D&B shall make available to Customer business
information services ("Services"), which may include information
("Information"); computer programs or applications (including those accessed
remotely), documentation and media (collectively, "Software"); and other
services, subject to this Master Agreement ("Agreement"). The Services subject
to this Agreement are identified in Orders entered into from time to time by D&B
and Customer. No obligation to furnish or to pay for a particular Service arises
under this Agreement until D&B accepts an order and any attachments thereto
placed by Customer. All accepted orders and their attachments (collectively, the
"Order(s)") for Services are subject to this Agreement, and the terms of such
Orders are incorporated by reference in this Agreement. Subject to paragraph
10.2, this Agreement continues in force even though no Order may then be
outstanding. The Services will also be made available to Customer's U.S. parent
and to U.S. companies that are subsidiaries, divisions or affiliates,
wholly-owned or controlled by Customer and that are identified on a "Schedule of
Locations of Service & Customer-Related Companies" schedule attached to such
Order and signed by the parties.

1.       LICENSES

1.1 D&B grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable license ("License")
to use and display the Information and Software (in object code format only)
constituting each D&B product specified in an Order, subject to the limitations
contained in this Agreement and such Order. D&B retains all ownership rights
(including copyrights and other intellectual property rights) in the Services,
in any form, and Customer obtains only such rights as are explicitly granted in
this Agreement and such Order. The Services will include a custom model
developed by D&B through the use of D&B and Customer information. To the extent
such model is customized for Customer, the customized model shall be owned by
Customer; provided that (i) Customer grants D&B a license to use such model in
connection with its provision of Services to Customer hereunder, (ii) Customer's
ownership of the customized model does not (x) include ownership of any D&B
information, techniques, processes, methods, expertise, or other intellectual
property included therein (which collectively remain D&B intellectual property)
or (y) affect D&B's ability or rights with respect to the use of such D&B
information, techniques, processes, methods, expertise, or other intellectual
property for the purpose of developing custom models for other customers for any
purpose, and (iii) Customer shall not license, sell, distribute or otherwise
make available such custom model to any third party, other than those third
parties to which Customer may make Information or Software available pursuant to
the first sentence of paragraph 2.2.

1.2 Each License and Order is for a term, beginning on the date of the Order, of
12 months, unless another term is specified in the Order. D&B may extend the
term for an additional period, in its discretion, while the parties are engaged
in renewal discussions. Any such extension shall be subject to this Agreement.
Each License or Order may be renewed as set forth in the Order and by mutual
written agreement and payment of renewal fees and applicable product and service
fees (the initial term and any renewal period for an Order or License constitute
"the Term" for such Order or License).

1.3 Software "Updates" (i.e., minor enhancements, additions, and substitutions
to Software, including corrections and bug fixes) are provided at no additional
fee, if available. "Upgrades" (i.e., modifications, additions or substitutions
that result in a substantial change, improvement or addition to Software), if
available, are provided for an additional fee, if applicable. The determination
of whether a matter involves an Update or an Upgrade is within the sole
discretion of D&B. All Updates and Upgrades obtained by Customer are subject to
this Agreement.

1.4 Telephone and email based software support is available during the Term of
an Order for the currently licensed Software versions, and only if Customer has
installed all Updates received.

2. RESTRICTIONS ON USE

2.1 Information and Software are licensed for Customer's internal use only and
(i) only at the points of service specified in the Order; (ii) only for the
frequency of use or total number of users set forth in the Order; and (iii)
subject to any other restrictions set forth in the Order.

2.2 Customer will not provide Information or Software to others, whether
directly in any media or indirectly through incorporation in a database,
marketing list, report or otherwise, or use or permit the use of Information to
generate any statistical or other information that is or will be provided to
third parties (including as the basis for providing recommendations to others);
use or permit the use of Information to prepare any comparison to other
information databases that is or will be provided to third parties; or
voluntarily produce Information in legal proceedings; except that Customer may
provide Information or Software to Representatives as defined below, in response
to regulatory requests, or as otherwise required by law. Customer shall: (i)
maintain the Information in strict confidence, including by restricting
disclosure of the Information solely to those of its employees, consultants,
agents and advisors (collectively, "Representatives") with a need to know and
not allowing it to be disclosed, through negligence or otherwise, to third
parties, (ii) advise Representatives who receive the Confidential Information of
their obligations hereunder and assume full responsibility for any breach by
them of such obligations, (iii) use the Confidential Information only in
furtherance of the business relationship described in Paragraph 1 above, and
(iv) take all steps to ensure that no unauthorized persons have access to
Confidential Information and that all persons having access to Confidential
Information refrain from any unauthorized disclosure.

2.3 Customer will not attempt to access, use, modify, copy, reverse engineer, or
otherwise derive the source code of Software.

2.4 Upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours, Customer will
permit D&B to inspect the locations at, or computer systems on which,
Information and Software are used, stored or transmitted so that D&B can verify
Customer's compliance with this Agreement.

2.5 Customer will be responsible for any direct damages or lost profits incurred
by D&B as a result of Customer's breach of this paragraph 2.

3. COPYING

3.1 Customer will not copy, download, upload or in any other way reproduce
Information or Software except for (i) creating a reasonable number of copies of
Information in any format for internal use only in accordance with this
Agreement and not for general internal distribution; and (ii) making one copy of
Information and of Software for internal archival purposes.

4. D-U-N-S NUMBERS

4.1 D-U-N-S Numbers are proprietary to and controlled by D&B. D&B grants
Customer a non-exclusive, perpetual, limited license to use D-U-N-S Numbers
solely for identification purposes and only for Customer's internal business
use. Where practicable, Customer will refer to the number as a "D-U-N-S Number"
and state that D-U-N-S is a registered trademark of D&B.

5. THIRD PARTY SERVICES

5.1 Customer may engage a third party to process or host Information (the
"Processor") provided that the Processor and D&B enter into a D&B Processor's
Agreement before any Information or Software is provided to the Processor.

5.2 Third parties that provide Information to D&B for use in providing the
Services are intended third party beneficiaries of paragraphs 8 and 11.

6. PAYMENT


6.1 Customer will pay D&B in accordance with the Order. Prices and product
descriptions are those set forth in the Order, or, if not included in the Order,
in the applicable pricing and product policies made available to Customer in
hard copy or on any D&B Internet site, which policies are incorporated herein. A
late payment charge of the lesser of 1-1/2% per month or the highest lawful rate
may be applied to any outstanding balances until paid.

6.2 Customer will pay any applicable taxes relating to this Agreement, other
than taxes based on D&B income and franchise - related taxes.

                                                                          3 of 5

MASTER AGREEMENT  (MA-01-02)                                        (D & B LOGO)


6.3 For certain Orders for a committed volume or usage represented by an upfront
payment by Customer, Customer may be entitled to "carry over" portions of unused
volume or usage upon renewal. In addition, if Customer's usage exceeds the
committed amount, such excess usage shall be billed at a specified "overrun"
rate. Such carryover and/or overrun rate, if applicable, will be determined in
accordance with the Order, or, if not included in the Order, in the applicable
pricing and product policies made available to Customer in hard copy or on any
D&B Internet site.

6.4 If Customer's pricing with respect to a particular Order is based on
Customer's expected volume or usage as indicated on such Order and Customer does
not meet such volume or usage levels, Customer will pay D&B a "true-up amount"
based on the pricing applicable to the volume or usage actually utilized by
Customer.

7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW

7.1 Customer will not use Information as a factor in establishing an
individual's eligibility for (i) credit or insurance to be used primarily for
personal, family, or household purposes, or (ii) employment. In addition,
Customer will not use any Service to engage in any unfair or deceptive practices
and will use the Services only in compliance with applicable state, local,
federal or foreign laws or regulations, including laws and regulations regarding
telemarketing, customer solicitation (including fax and/or e-mail solicitation),
data protection and privacy.

8. DISCLAIMERS

8.1 Though D&B uses extensive procedures to keep its database current and to
maintain accurate data, Customer acknowledges that the Information will contain
a degree of error and that Customer is responsible for determining that the
Information is sufficiently accurate for Customer's purposes. If the Information
is not sufficiently accurate for Customer's purposes, then Customer must so
notify D&B, in writing, within 15 days after receipt of such Information. D&B
will, at its option, either correct the inaccuracy at D&B's expense or refund
any amounts paid relating to the unusable Information.

8.2 ALL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. OTHER THAN AS
EXPLICITLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, D&B DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, CURRENTNESS,
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. D&B DOES NOT WARRANT THAT
THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE AND DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OR
REPRESENTATION REGARDING AVAILABILITY OF A SERVICE, SERVICE LEVELS OR
PERFORMANCE. D&B WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR INJURY ARISING OUT OF, IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, D&B'S CONDUCT IN PROCURING, COMPILING, COLLECTING,
INTERPRETING, REPORTING OR DELIVERING SERVICES.

9. COPYRIGHTS AND OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

9.1 Customer acknowledges that Information and Software are proprietary works of
D&B and comprise: (i) works of original authorship, including compiled
Information containing D&B's selection, arrangement and coordination and
expression of such Information or pre-existing material it has created, gathered
or assembled; (ii) trade secret and other confidential information, including
information that derives value or potential value from not being readily known
or available; and (iii) information that has been created, developed and
maintained by D&B at great expense, such that misappropriation or unauthorized
use by others for commercial gain would unfairly and/or irreparably harm D&B or
reduce D&B's incentive to create, develop and maintain such information.
Customer will not knowingly commit or permit any act or omission that would
contest or impair D&B's proprietary and intellectual property rights in
Information and Software or that would cause the Information or Software to
infringe the proprietary or intellectual property rights of a third party.
Customer will reproduce D&B's copyright and proprietary rights legend on all
copies of Information and Software which are so marked when received. Customer
will be responsible for any direct damages or lost profits incurred by D&B as a
result of Customer's breach of this paragraph 9.1.

9.2 Customer and D&B will not (i) use any trademark, service mark or trade name
of each other or any of their affiliated companies, except that D&B and its
affiliates may include Customer's trade names in the data base of business
information included within the Services it offers to Customer and others or
otherwise as permitted by law, or (ii) publish any press releases regarding this
Agreement or any Order.


9.3 D&B will treat all information that Customer designates in writing to be
proprietary in the same manner as D&B treats its own proprietary information.
D&B agrees not to use such identified proprietary information except for the
purposes of performing its obligations to Customer and for internal analytical
purposes (i.e., analyzing such data to improve D&B's products and services).
Such proprietary information shall not include information that (i) is or
becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of D&B; (ii) was
in D&B's lawful possession prior to Customer's disclosure to D&B; (iii) is
lawfully disclosed to D&B by a third-party with the right to disclose such
information and without restriction on such disclosure; or (iv) is independently
developed by D&B without use of or reference to the proprietary information.


9.4 D&B represents and warrants to Customer that, to D&B's knowledge, the
Software and Information, when used in accordance with this Agreement, do not
violate any existing U.S. copyrights, patents, trademarks, or other intellectual
property rights of any third party. The foregoing warranty does not apply to the
extent Customer modifies the Software or Information in any way or combines the
Software or Information with material from third parties.

10. TERMINATION

10.1 In the event of material breach (including, without limitation, an
assignment in violation of paragraph 13.2 hereof) by Customer or D&B, the
non-breaching party may immediately terminate this Agreement or particular
Orders without prior notice. In addition, D&B may terminate this Agreement or
particular Orders upon 30 days' prior written notice; provided that if D&B
terminates this Agreement or particular Orders other than for cause, D&B will
refund to Customer the unused balance of any amounts paid under the relevant
Orders. If Customer terminates this Agreement or particular Orders due to a
material breach by D&B pursuant to this section, D&B will refund to Customer the
unused balance of any amounts paid under the relevant Orders so long as such
material breach is proved in any judicial proceeding.

10.2 If Customer has no Orders in effect during a period of six consecutive
months, then D&B may terminate this Agreement at the end of such six-month
period by sending written notice to Customer.


10.3 The provisions set forth in paragraphs 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.3, 10.4,
10.5, 11 and 12 will survive the termination of this Agreement.

10.4 If, without D&B's written permission, Customer continues after termination
to obtain Services covered by a terminated Order or Agreement, Customer will be
liable to D&B for the undiscounted fees for such Services in effect on the date
of such termination.

10.5 Upon termination of a Term with respect to particular Information or
Software, or upon receipt of Software or Information that is intended to
supersede previously obtained Software or Information, unless D&B instructs
Customer otherwise, Customer will immediately delete or destroy all originals
and copies (other than archival copies permitted by paragraph 3) of the
Information or Software, and upon request, provide D&B with certification
thereof.

10.6 Termination of this Agreement will result in a termination of all
outstanding Orders.

11. Limitation of Liability

11.1 NEITHER D&B NOR CUSTOMER WILL BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY,
