From: "Webshots Membership Services" Subject: Important message concerning transfer of your Webshots membership
Dear Webshots Member,
As you may be aware, At Home Corporation ("ExciteAtHome"), the owner of Webshots
(I didn't even know that!!), has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and is
in the process of selling some of its assets, including the Webshots business. The buyer of the Webshots business would like to continue providing the Webshots service to you and to other Webshots members.
To do so, your consent is needed for the transfer to the buyer of Webshots of your membership account and your Personal Identifiable Information, as described in the Webshots Privacy Policy. The buyer
of the Webshots business will be required to abide by the terms of
the current Webshots privacy policy:
http://www.webshots.com/go?terms
NOTE: At Home has entered into an asset purchase agreement with Twofold Photos LLC, which is a company owned by the three original founders of Webshots. Under the bankruptcy procedures it is possible that
Twofold may be outbid by another party, and that the other party may ultimately be the purchaser of the Webshots assets.
If you wish to continue your Webshots membership after the sale of the Webshots business, you do not need to take any action. After the sale of Webshots your membership will continue and your member
information will be transferred Automatically to the buyer of Webshots. However, you may elect NOT to continue your Webshots membership and NOT to have your member information transferred to the new buyer of the Webshots business.
To elect NOT to have your Webshots Membership and member information transferred with the sale of Webshots to the buyer of the Webshots business, please click on the following link and follow the
instructions:
http://www.webshots.com/deleteme?key=31937270-VUmNgrxkSr
If you do not reply by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on December 20, 2001,[OOPS]
your membership and member information will be included in the assets transferred under the proposed sale. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU
CLICK ON THIS LINK AND CHOOSE NOT TO TRANSFER YOUR MEMBER INFORMATION WITH THE SALE OF WEBSHOTS, YOUR WEBSHOTS MEMBERSHIP WILL BE CANCELLED. ALSO, ANY PHOTOS YOU HAVE UPLOADED TO THE "MY PHOTOS" SECTION OF WEBSHOTS WILL BE DELETED. IF YOU LATER WISH TO USE THE WEBSHOTS WEBSITE, YOU WILL NEED TO REGISTER AGAIN.
We hope you will continue to enjoy Webshots and remain a part of the Webshots community!
