Advertising Customers ("Customers") of the Houston Chronicle who desire
assistance in the design and development of websites, banner advertisements, or
other internet advertising solutions.  HIDI shall provide to the Chronicle and
the Customer customized internet advertising solutions as required by the
Customer, including but not limited to the following:

          (b) The design, development and implementation of Customer-branded
      banner advertisements for use on the World Wide Web portion of the
      internet, whether on the Customer Sites or on other sites; and

          (c) Such other customized internet advertising solutions as may be
      specifically agreed between each Customer, the Chronicle and HIDI in
      separate Tasking Letters to be negotiated with each Customer.

          (d) Any ongoing maintenance or modifications associated with the
      above-referenced services, and all upgrades, enhancements, developments
