ii. Extended Automatic Renewal. If you enroll in the Extended Automatic Renewalplan, Go Daddy will automatically renew any domain name that is up for renewal for anadditional one-year period on each and every anniversary of your domain nameregistration, so the initial registration period will always remain intact. Thus, if you havechosen to register your domain name for two (2) years, Go Daddy will automaticallyrenew it for one (1) additional year on each and every anniversary of your domain nameregistration so your two (2) year registration period will always remain intact. If you havechosen to register your domain name for five (5) years, Go Daddy will automaticallyrenew it for one (1) additional year on each and every anniversary of your domain nameregistration so your five (5) year registration period will always remain intact, and so on.Go Daddy will take payment from the Payment Method you have on file with Go Daddy,at Go Daddy's then current one-year domain name registration rate.

If you do not select that the domain name be automaticallyrenewed (through either Automatic Renewal or Extended Automatic Renewal), youhave the responsibility of logging into the Domain Manager portion of your  Account Manager  for that domain name and manually implementing the renewal by theexpiration date (should you in fact want the domain name to be renewed). If you fail tomanually implement the renewal before the expiration date, the domain name will becancelled and you will no longer have use of that name.
