      configuration, reasonable wear and tear excepted, to pay for repairs to

      Term of this Agreement.

      with the terms and conditions of this Agreement) will be returned
      within sixty (60) days after the termination of any services rendered
      or expiration of the Term.  Client may not direct or request that the
      refundable retainer be applied in lieu of the final payment(s) of
      Monthly Office Charge or service charges under this Agreement.
c.    In the event that Center applies any of the refundable retainer
      deposited  pursuant to this Agreement, Center will have the right to
      charge the Client, and Client will pay, in addition to any Monthly
      Office Charge, such sums are as necessary to cause the refundable
      retainer to be returned to its entire original amount.

      Premises by Center.

      the year 2000 nor will any of them be liable for the failure of such
      systems to process such date fields.  Center's liability under this
      Agreement will in no event exceed the amount paid by the Client for the
