and its general membership policies. SubscriberBASE, Inc. is solely responsible
for the administration of this membership incentive offer. The owners of
trademarked names and merchandise used in our promotions do not sponsor

To become a LaptopReportCard.com member and participate
in its membership incentive promotion, you must be at least 18 years old
and a legal resident of the United States with a valid email and mailing
address. If you do not meet these requirements, we ask that you do not
complete the registration process. Offer not valid to residents of Washington
State and where prohibited by law.
Specific Terms and Conditions for the LaptopReportCard.com
(LRC) Membership Incentive Promotions:
This offer is available to US residents only. Participants must be at least
18 years of age. To receive the free membership incentive gift you must
complete all of the steps outlined herein. Prospective members must: (a)
submit their zip code to determine geographic eligibility; (b) register
with a valid and deliverable email address; (c) submit accurate contact
and demographic information including a mailing address; (d) acquire two
advertiser action points from each of LRC's three Offer Groups for a total
of six advertiser action points. Action points are earned when a LRC user
fully completes an advertiser offer after accessing the offer by clicking
on a link provided on the LRC website or from the LRC member area. Attempting
to gain action points in any way other than clicking on the advertiser
links provided by LRC will result in the cancellation of your LRC membership.
Please understand that this means completing two offers from the Top Offers
group, two offers from the Prime Offers group, and two offers from the
Premium Offers group. The Prime Offers group and Premium Offers group may
be accessed from the PTP member area. (e) You must complete and return
an Incentive Redemption form after accumulating the required action points.
The form may be downloaded from the member area after you have earned six
points. Please understand that failure to supply current and accurate address
and demographic information on the redemption form may hinder our ability
to deliver the incentive gift to you.
In cases of a financial offer such as a credit card,
the card must be activated by making a purchase, balance transfer or cash
advance in order for the offer to be considered "completed", and the user must remain
a card holder for at least 60 days. For paid retail offers you must accept
the item/service and pay in full. If a product/item (not services) is returned
or canceled, then credit for the subsequent offer will not be awarded. Purchasing
retail offers for resale or commercial purposes is not allowed. In
order to receive credit for any sponsor offers completed, the billing information
must match exactly to the information used when registering with LRC. Additional
terms and conditions may apply to participation in select marketing offers.
You should read the terms of each offer as provided by the advertiser for
an explanation of these terms where they exist.
LRC reserves the right to require individuals to provide
documentation demonstrating they have completed the advertiser requirements
prior to incentive gift redemption in cases where that information is unavailable
from the advertiser.
You have up to ninety days from the original date of
your membership registration to complete the membership incentive program
and redeem your incentive gift. Your gift eligibility is secured as soon
as you complete two offers from each of the three offer groups and submit
your Redemption Request Form. Once you meet the offer completion requirements,
you will need to login to your account to print off your redemption certificate.
Once we have received your verification, your gift will be sent within
thirty days. Gift redemptions are limited to one gift per household. If
you have registered for multiple membership incentive gift promotions,
you will be given your choice of gift items upon logging into your Member’s Area. Action
points are not transferable from one incentive gift to another.
Please note that it may take up to eight weeks for our
marketing partners to report to us that you have completed their offer.
Please be patient while our marketing partners report back to us. You may
check your redemption status at anytime through our member interface area
at http://laptopreportcard.com/status.php.
Simply log in using the same email address with which you registered.
Quick Completion Bonus Offers: From time to time, LaptopReportCard.com
may make additional incentive items available to first time registrants
if they complete the LaptopReportCard.com Membership Incentive Promotion
(as defined above) within a specified time period of their initial registration
session. "Initial registration", as used in connection with LaptopReportCard.com
bonus offers, means the first time any individual submits his or her personal

any subsequent registrations with LaptopReportCard.com for different Member
Incentive Promotions. Bonus Offers are limited to one per person/household.
Miscellaneous Bonus Offer: From time to time, there may
be additional bonus gift opportunities available at varying positions throughout
our promotions. The specific requirements for receipt of these bonuses
will be recited on the webpage where they are offered. Please note that
no bonus of any kind will be awarded to any individual who does not first
fully complete the requirements for receipt of the underlying incentive
gift item. Members
should understand that we use various means (e.g. email, web pages, etc.)
to promote bonus offerings. Members will not receive more than one
bonus gift for completing the same bonus offering multiple times. The
Miscellaneous Bonus Offer is limited to one per person/household.

operation of the promotion may be in violation of criminal and civil laws;
