Exhibit B – Country Specific Terms
is hereby amended specifically for Hong Kong Users.

Users who have Business Accounts are considered by PayPal to have a business relationship with us. Users with Premier Accounts (unless you are a Seller and are a User of the PayPal Here product) and Personal Accounts are considered by PayPal to be occasional Users and do not have a business relationship with us. In relation to the Users who have Premier Accounts and Personal Accounts, PayPal transacts payments initiated by such Users at its sole and absolute discretion and PayPal reserves the right, at all times, to reject and refuse to transact such payments at any time without notice to such Users.


How will this change the way we do business?. I have a premier account with Paypal. Do I need to take some extra precautions while using it for my online buisness?
