--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This  Data  Products  License  Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of the
30th  day  of  March  2001  ("Effective Date") by and between Acxiom Corporation
("Acxiom")  and  Publication  Management,  Inc.  ("Customer").

1.     GENERAL.  "Customer" shall include any legal entities that are controlled
by  Customer  as  of  the  execution  date  of  this Agreement ("Subsidiaries"),
provided,  that Customer shall include a list of Customer's current Subsidiaries
on the applicable Product Schedule (as defined below) prior to execution of this
Agreement.  Customer  guarantees  its  Subsidiaries'  obligation  under  this
Agreement.  Notwithstanding  anything  to the contrary in this Agreement, in the
event  that  Customer is acquired by or merged into a separate entity during the
Term,  as  defined  below, of this Agreement and the surviving entity desires to
receive  Data,  as  defined  below,  from Acxiom pursuant to this Agreement, the
parties agree that the fees set forth in the applicable Product Schedule for the
Data  may  be subject, in Acxiom's sole and reasonable discretion, to adjustment
by  Acxiom  in  consideration  of  any  such  acquisition  or  merger.

2.   TERM / RENEWAL / TERMINATION.

     2.1     This Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue
until  terminated.  The  term  of  a  Product Schedule shall be set forth in the
Product  Schedule.

     2.2     Subject  to  Section  2.3,  either  party  may  terminate  (i) this
Agreement  upon  ninety (90) days prior written notice for convenience, provided
that  no  Product Schedule is in effect upon termination, or (ii) this Agreement
or  a  Product  Schedule  immediately in the event the other party is in default
under  this  Agreement or the respective Product Schedule and fails to cure such
default  within  thirty  (30)  days  of  written  notice  from  the  other party
specifying  the  nature  of  such  default.

     2.3     In  the  event  of  a termination of the Agreement and in the event
that  any  Product  Schedule is still in effect as of the effective date of such
termination,  this  Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect
to  such  Product  Schedule  and  until  such  Product Schedule is terminated in
accordance  with  the  terms  set  forth  in  the  Product  Schedule.

     2.4     In  the  event  that  legislation,  governmental  regulations,  or
industry  self-regulation prohibits the delivery or use of a Product, Acxiom may
terminate  this  Agreement or the applicable Product Schedule upon the effective
date  of such legislation or regulations.  If Acxiom should voluntarily withdraw
a  Product  due  to  legislative,  regulatory  industry, or political pressures,
Acxiom  may  terminate  this  Agreement  or the applicable Product Schedule upon
three  (3) months prior written notice, and Customer shall discontinue using the
Data  (as  defined  below)  at  the  end  of  such  three-month  period.

     2.5     Upon  the  termination  of this Agreement or a Product Schedule for
any  reason, Customer shall, at Acxiom's option, destroy or return to Acxiom the
respective  Data and any copies thereof and certify in a writing to be delivered
to  Acxiom  within  five  (5) business days following such destruction or return
that  the  Customer  has  fully  complied with the requirements of this Section.
Upon  termination,  Customer  shall  promptly pay to Acxiom any outstanding fees
owed  to  Acxiom.  In no event shall Customer be entitled to a refund of amounts
paid,  except  as  specifically  provided  in  this  Agreement.

3.   PRODUCTS / PAYMENT.

     3.1     Subject to the license granted in Section 5, Acxiom may provide (i)
data  ("Data") contained in the Acxiom products ("Products") described in one or
more  Product  schedules  ("Product  Schedules")  executed  by  the  parties and
incorporated  herein  by  reference;  and  (ii)  the Data processing services in
connection  therewith.  In  the event a conflict arises between the terms of any
Product  Schedule  and  the  Agreement,  the terms of the Product Schedule shall
prevail.

     3.2     Customer  agrees  to pay Acxiom for the Products in accordance with
the  payment  terms  set  forth in the Product Schedule.  In the event of a good
faith  dispute  as  to the calculation of an invoice, Customer shall immediately
give  written notice to Acxiom stating the details of any such dispute and shall
promptly  pay  any  undisputed amount.  The acceptance by Acxiom of such partial
payment  shall  not  constitute  a  waiver of payment in full by Customer of the
disputed  amount.

     3.3     Any undisputed amounts not paid within thirty (30) days of the date
of  invoice shall accrue interest at a rate of one percent (1%) per month or the
maximum  lawful  rate, whichever is less.  Failure to make timely payments shall
constitute a default hereunder and shall entitle Acxiom, in its sloe discretion,
to  suspend  its  provision of the Products and require payment in advance until
Customer's  account  is  paid  in  full.

4.     TITLE.  Customer acknowledges that the Data contained within the Products
shall at all times remain the intellectual property of Acxiom or the third party
data  owners  who provided the Data to Acxiom ("Data Owners"), and that Customer
has  no  rights  whatsoever  in the Data or the Products except as expressly set
forth  in  this  Agreement  or  the  applicable  Product  Schedule.

5.   PRODUCT LICENSE / DELIVERY.

     5.1     License Grant.  Acxiom hereby grants and Customer hereby receives a
             -------------
limited,  non-transferable,  non-exclusive  license  (License") to use the Data,
subject  to  the  terms  of  this Agreement and the applicable Product Schedule.

     5.2     Use  by  Future  Subsidiaries.  In  the  event  that  any  future
             -----------------------------
Subsidiary of Customer desires to receive the Products from Acxiom, Customer and
Acxiom  shall mutually agree upon and execute an amendment to this Agreement and
the  applicable  Product  Schedule, which amendment shall set forth the specific
Products,  services  and  applicable fees related thereto to be licensed to such
Subsidiary  by  Acxiom.

     5.3     Restrictions.  In  addition  to  any  restrictions  included  in  a
             ------------
Product  Schedule  and  except  as  expressly  authorized in a Product Schedule,
Customer  may  not  use  the  Data  as  a factor in establishing an individual's
creditworthiness or eligibility for (i) credit or insurance, or (ii) employment.

     5.4     Suppression  Files.  Unless  otherwise  directed  by  Customer  in
             ------------------
writing  and  as  applicable  to  the  permitted  uses  set forth in the Product
Schedule,  Acxiom  shall  automatically apply the Direct Marketing Association's
("DMA")  Mail  Preference  Service  and Telephone Preference Service suppression
files (the "Suppression Files") to any prospecting use of the Data not involving
Customer's  house  files to designate an individual consumer as having opted out
of receiving marketing solicitations.  In the event that Customer does not honor
such  election,  Acxiom may terminate this Agreement immediately and without any
further  liability  to  Customer,  and  Customer  agrees  defend,  indemnify,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and  hold  Acxiom  harmless for any claims brought against Acxiom arising out of
Customer's  failure  to  honor  such  election.  Further,  due  to  the  varying
publication  dates  of  updates  to the Suppression Files, Customer acknowledges
that  Acxiom  cannot  guarantee  that the names or telephone numbers of all such
consumer  have  been  identified  on  or  deleted from the Product s supplied to
Customer  hereunder.

     5.5     Consumer  Inquiries.  Unless  otherwise  provide  in  an applicable
             -------------------
Product  Schedule, Customer shall be responsible for accepting and responding to
any  communication initiated by a consumer ("Consumer Inquiries") arising out of
Customer's  use of the Data.  Customer agrees that it will implement a "consumer
care"  system  that  includes  in-house  capabilities  to  suppress  consumer
information,  upon  request  by a consumer, from future marketing initiatives by
Customer.  Customer  agrees  to  honor  such  consumer's  request  to opt-out of
receiving  telemarketing, e-mail marketing and direct marketing solicitations by
suppressing  such  consumer information from Customer's marketing solicitations.
Customer  may  communicate  to  Acxiom records of the deceased and only Consumer
Inquiries that are determined to involve the accuracy of the Data.  No reference
to  Acxiom  in written or oral communication to a consumer or in scripts used by
Customer  in  responding  to  Consumer  Inquiries shall be made without Acxiom's
prior  written  approval.  Acxiom  may  from time to time, upon specific request
from  consumers, provide corrections to the Data to License, and License further
agrees  to  update  its  records  upon  receipt  of  such  corrections.

     5.6     Third Party Restrictions.  Because certain portions of the Data are
             ------------------------
from  Data  Owners,  Acxiom is obligated to comply with certain restrictions and
requirements  placed  upon  the  use of such information by these third parties.
Customer  shall  strictly  comply  with all restrictions and requirements now or
hereafter  imposed  upon  Acxiom by any Data Owner and made known to Customer in
writing.

     5.7     Delivery.  In  the  event  that  Acxiom  provides  the  Products to
             --------
Customer  electronically,  Customer  acknowledges  that  certain  mechanical  or
software  failures  may render an electronic transmission medium unavailable for
periods  of  time  and that Acxiom may not be able to provide advance warning to
Customer  of  such  downtime.  Acxiom shall exercise its vest efforts to provide
Customer  with  advance  notice  of  downtime.

6.   CONFIDENTIALITY.

     6.1     The  Data  provided  to  Customer  by  Acxiom or any proprietary or
confidential information provided hereunder by one party ("Disclosing Party") to
the  other  ("Receiving  Party")  shall  be  held  in  strict  confidence by the
Receiving  Party  and  shall  not  be disclosed or used for any purpose other as
specifically authorized by the Disclosing Party or as expressly provided in this
Agreement  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the Disclosing Party.  The
Receiving  Party  shall  exercise at least the same degree of care with which it
protects  its  own  confidential or proprietary information, but not less than a
reasonable  degree  of care, to ensure compliance with its obligation under this
Agreement  respecting  the  authorized  use,  protection  and  security  of  the
Disclosing  Party's confidential information, and to this end shall instruct its
employees and all other parties who have a need to know and are permitted access
to the Disclosing Party's confidential information of the restrictions contained
in  this  Agreement.

     6.2     Customer agrees not to remove any product identification, copyright
or  other  proprietary  notices  form  the  Products.

     6.3     Customer  agrees  that no part of  the Products will be used in the
development  of  (i) any application that is outside the scope of this Agreement
or  applicable  Product Schedule or (ii) any products or services to be provided
to  third  parties  including,  without limitation, any list enhancement or data
appending  service  or  product.

7.   PRIVACY / DATA PROTECTION.  The  parties  agree  to comply with all privacy
and  data  protection  laws, rules and regulations, and with the DMA's published

Acxiom  and/or  the Data Owners.  Phone follow up within sixty (60) days of mail

     1.1  The  Data  is  seeded  to  detect  any unauthorized use or duplication
thereof,  and  Customer  agrees  not to knowingly remove seeds from the Data set
provided  by  Acxiom  for  the  purpose of omitting those records from a mailing
