Under the terms of this Agreement, Affiliate will serve as a non-exclusive, independent contractor sales representative for the Company in the territories listed on Schedule A (the “Territory”) for the particular products described in Exhibit A (the “Product” or “Products”) and, as applicable, as a non-exclusive, independent contractor Master Affiliate, as defined in Section 6 below.

Company reserves the right to contract with other sales representatives in the Territory and to sell the Products itself in the Territory.

Additional products may be added by the Company through e-mail correspondence or posts to the affiliates- only Facebook Group.  

3.  Term; Termination. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall be from the date of its execution and shall continue on a month to month basis, subject to termination by either Party on twenty-four (24) hours’ prior written notice, which termination shall be immediately effective upon the expiration of the twenty-four (24) hour period. The Company and Affiliate shall each have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement at any time if the other Party breaches any of the material terms or provisions of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of written notice from the non-breaching Party. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the death or disability of Affiliate. Except in the event of termination for breach, upon termination of this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for paying Affiliate Commissions (defined below) earned on amounts collected from Affiliate’s accounts within the Territory from Purchase Orders (defined below) accepted through the date of termination.  

4.  Purchase Orders. If a customer desires to place an order for the Product(s) (each, a “Purchase Order”), Affiliate shall assist the customer in filling out the Company’s standard order form and then Affiliate shall enter the Purchase Order into the Company’s online ordering system. Each customer is required to have their own unique account which includes the customer’s full name, email address, physical address, and any other information about the customer that is required to submit a Purchase Order. Alternatively, customers may place orders directly by using the link provided by Affiliate, which orders must also be placed using a unique account for the customer that includes the customer’s full name, email address, physical address, and any other information about the customer that is required to submit a Purchase Order. Affiliate shall notify each customer that the Company may elect to accept or reject a Purchase Order in its sole and absolute discretion. All accepted Purchase Orders will be fulfilled directly by the Company to the customer.   Commissions Payable.   Subject to Section 11, the Company shall pay to Affiliate a commission (the “Commission”) for Product sales made to accounts within the Territory (based on accepted Purchase Orders) from which Affiliate has secured Purchase Orders during the Term in accordance with the commission chart(s) set forth within the Affiliate’s account. Commission payouts are based solely on the price of Products sold and not reflective of any shipping and/or taxes. As a condition to receiving commission payments, each Affiliate that is a U.S. resident must submit an IRS W-9 form to Company with Affiliate’s Social Security Number or Business’s tax identification number in accordance with any further instructions provided by Company. Additionally, each Affiliate must execute this Agreement and submit a verified PayPal account for commission payouts (Section 5(e)).   Any Affiliate in Canada that is registered under Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (“Registered Canadian Affiliate”) and is required to charge the Goods & Services Tax, Harmonized Sales Tax or Provincial Sales Tax (“Canadian Tax”) on the Commission, must advise the Company of this requirement. Prior to the Company paying Canadian Tax to a Registered Canadian Affiliate, said Affiliate must provide the Company, in writing to info@a1grappler.com with the correct amount of Canadian Tax to be levied and all the information that the Company requires to claim an Input Tax Credit (“ITC”) for any Canadian Tax paid to the Registered Canadian Affiliate.   No Commissions shall be payable for Purchase Orders which the Company has accepted, but which it then elects for any reason at its sole and absolute discretion to cancel or  rescind, whether or not it has a legal right to cancel such Purchase Order. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all Commissions paid with respect to Purchase Orders that subsequently are cancelled, refunded, charged back or for which the Products are returned shall be automatically deducted from the next Commission payment(s) until fully recouped by the Company. In addition, if a Purchase Order is cancelled, refunded, charged back or if Products are returned following the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, Company shall notify Affiliate in writing of any Commissions to be refunded to Company. Affiliate shall refund any such Commissions to Company within ten (10) calendar days of such notice. If Affiliate fails to return such Commissions within such ten (10) calendar day period, then Company shall have the right to take legal action against Affiliate and in addition to any amounts owed hereunder, Affiliate will reimburse the Company for all costs of collection, attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection therewith. In addition, the Company shall have the option to require Affiliate to keep a payment method on file with the Company. If the Company requests that Affiliate keep a payment method on file, then the Company may charge Affiliate’s payment method on file with Company if Affiliate fails to refund any such Commissions.   Special commission rates may be applied from time to time at the sole discretion of the Company to consummate specific sales transactions or promotions.   Each month will be broken into four (4) payment cycles as follows: (i) Cycle 1: 1st-8th day of the month; (ii) Cycle 2: 9th-16th day of the month; (iii) Cycle 3: 17th-24th day of the month; and (iv) Cycle 4: 25th-last day of the month. Commissions shall be paid by Company to Affiliate no later than four (4) calendar days following the end of the applicable payment cycle in which the Company receives payment for Purchase Orders submitted by Affiliate or through Affiliate’s sales link for customers within the Territory. Commissions payable hereunder shall be based solely upon actual amounts collected from (not billed to) the accounts. All Commission payments shall be made through PayPal to the PayPal address designated by Affiliate. It is Affiliate’s responsibility to provide an accurate PayPal address. The Company will not be liable for any Commissions which are not received or are delayed as a result of the Affiliate’s failure to provide accurate PayPal information. Affiliate agrees to notify the Company immediately in writing with any changes to Affiliate’s account information. Changes to Affiliate’s PayPal account or other information may require reverification and as such incur the withholding of Commission payments. All Commission payouts will expire after thirty (30) calendar days if Affiliate’s PayPal information remains unverified.   The Commissions which the Company will pay to Affiliate hereunder shall be the exclusive compensation paid by the Company to Affiliate for the services provided by Affiliate hereunder.   Company may, from time to time, offer bonuses to Affiliate or an employee of Affiliate who achieves certain sales milestones in a given time period. Company retains the sole and absolute discretion to determine the: (i) sales milestones required to be satisfied; (ii) time period; (iii) bonus type and amount, and (iv) the Affiliate or employees of Affiliate who qualify for any bonus.  Affiliate represents and warrants that Affiliate is not a current employee of an existing affiliate of the Company (“Existing Affiliate”). If Affiliate is an employee of an Existing Affiliate, then such Existing Affiliate shall be considered a referral partner of the Company and all Commissions otherwise payable to Affiliate shall be paid to the Existing Affiliate. Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall have no liability whatsoever to Affiliate if Affiliate is a current employee of an Existing Affiliate, and Affiliate forfeits any Commissions if it is an employee of an Existing Affiliate. Further, if Affiliate falsifies information resulting in Commissions belonging to an Existing Affiliate being paid to Affiliate, then all such Commission received by Affiliate shall be promptly returned to the Company.    

5.  Master Affiliate Program. Franchise owners have the opportunity to participate in Company’s Master Affiliate Program through the Affiliate’s online portal. If this option is elected, such Affiliate (“Master Affiliate”) will be paid a commission (“Referral Commission”) for sales made by each new Affiliate that Master Affiliate refers to Company and which Company approves as an Affiliate (each, a “Referral Affiliate”). Company shall have the sole and absolute right to determine whether any referral will be approved as a Referral Affiliate.

Master Affiliate shall provide reasonable sales support to all of Master Affiliate’s Referral Affiliates.
