is made between BEST BAR EVER, INC. (the “Company”), and the Affiliate
(collectively, the “Parties”) for participation in The Company’s Affiliate Program.

disregard the following agreement.
Affiliate wishes to include certain materials promoting Company, and to
include a link to Company’s website within those materials on Affiliate’s
website;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual promises, covenants, warranties, and other good and valuable
consideration set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows:
1.
Promotional Materials. Company shall make available to Affiliate
certain banner advertisements, button links, text links, and/or other graphic
or textual material for display and use on the Affiliate’s website (the “Promotional
Materials”). Affiliate shall display the Promotional Materials on Affiliate’s
website prominently and as Affiliate sees fit, provided that the manner of
display shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Affiliate shall also include a link from the Promotional Materials to Company’s
website, as specified by Company.
2.
Use of Promotional Materials. The Affiliate’s use and display of the
Promotional Materials on the Affiliate’s site shall conform to the following
terms, conditions and specifications:
a.
Affiliate
may not use any graphic, textual, or other materials to promote Company’s
website, products, or services other than the Promotional Materials, unless
Company agrees to such other materials in writing prior to their display.
b.
Affiliate
may only use the Promotional Materials for the purpose of promoting Company’s
website (and the products and services available thereon), and for linking to
Company’s website.
c.
Affiliate
will not alter, add to, subtract from, or otherwise modify the Promotional
Materials as they have been prepared by Company. If Affiliate wishes to alter
or otherwise modify the Promotional Materials, Affiliate must obtain prior
written consent from Company for such alteration of modification.
d. The Promotional Materials will be used to
link only to Company’s website, to the specific page and address as specified
by Company.
3.
License.
Company hereby grants to Affiliate a non-exclusive, non-transferable license
(the “License”) to use the Promotional Materials as specified under the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. The term of the License shall expire upon the
expiration or termination of this Agreement.
4.
Intellectual Property. Company retains all right, ownership, and
interest in the Promotional Materials, and in any copyright, trademark, or
other intellectual property in the Promotional Materials. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed to grant Affiliate any rights, ownership, or
interest in the Promotional Materials, or in the underlying intellectual
property, other than the rights to use the Promotional Materials granted under
the License, as set forth in Section 3.
5.
Relationship of Parties. This Agreement shall not be construed to
create any employment relationship, agency relationship, or partnership between
Company and Affiliate. Affiliate shall provide services for Company as an
independent contractor. Affiliate shall have no authority to bind Company into
any agreement, nor shall Affiliate be considered to be an agent of Company in
any respect.
6.
Commissions.
In exchange for Affiliate’s display of the Promotional Materials, and for
Affiliate’s compliance with and performance of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Company shall pay to Affiliate a commission (the “Commission”) in
the amount of a flat dollar amount per box of product sold to a user that
accesses Company’s website through a link on Affiliate’s website. The current
percentage posted is 15%. This percentage is subject to change by the Company
at any time.
a.
Notification
to Affiliate of any change in commission percentage will be sent by Company to
the email address on hand for the Affiliate. Commission will be based on
purchases made by a user for any new and recurring purchases for the life of
the registered user.
b.
Company
shall keep accurate and up-to-date records of the data used to determine the
total amount of Commissions owed to Affiliate. Affiliate shall be given
reasonable access to these records upon request.
c.
Commissions
are held for a period of 3 (three) months from any purchase to protect Company
in the event of any chargeback that may occur. Company shall pay all
Commissions accrued and payable to Affiliate within 7 days of the first day of
each month (the “Commission Payment Date”). If on any Commission Payment Date
the amount of total Commissions accrued and payable to Affiliate is less than
$10.00, then such accrued and payable balance shall be held over to the
following month, and paid together with the Commissions due for that month. If
at any time the balance of accrued and payable Commissions is held over for 3 (three)
consecutive months, then Company shall pay all accrued and payable Commissions
to Affiliate in the fourth month, regardless of the total amount owed. Payment
is made via the Affiliate’s PayPal account or as agreed upon.
d. In the event that Affiliate materially
breaches this Agreement and Company terminates this Agreement within 30 days of
such breach, then any accrued and payable Commissions owing to Affiliate shall
be forfeited, and Company shall not be obligated to pay such Commissions to
Affiliate.
