The failure to renew the Netscape agreement would result, at least in the short term, and could result, in the long-term, in a material reduction in traffic to the Infoseek Web site. This could, in turn, result in advertisers on the Company's Web sites, including channel sponsors, terminating their contracts with the Company as such contracts are typically of short duration and terminable on relatively short notice, reducing the number of impressions purchased. Furthermore, the Company's contracts with advertisers generally guarantee a minimum number of page views, and a failure to achieve the minimum page views could result in a reduction in payments to the Company or compel the Company to provide "make good" impressions if such minimums are not met. If the Company is unable to develop viable alternative distribution channels to Netscape or is otherwise unable to offset a reduction in traffic, advertising revenues would be substantially adversely affected, resulting in the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects being materially and adversely affected Hmm...sounds a bit scary...
