Company hereby grants to Affiliate a nonexclusive, nontransferable 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.

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.

This Agreement shall not be construed to create any employment relationship, agency relationship, or partnership between Company and Affiliate.

(A) 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 percentage or flat rate for products sold to a user that accesses Company’s website through a link on Affiliate’s website. This percentage or flat rate is subject to change by the Company at any time. Notification to Affiliate of any change in commission percentage will be given by Company at 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.

Affiliate shall be given reasonable access to these records upon request, and is available through the affiliate area on the company page at https://ftc.surfnetcorp.com/affiliate/.

(C) Company shall pay all Commissions accrued and payable to Affiliate within 10 days of the first day of each month covering sales for the previous month (the “Commission Payment Date”). If on any Commission Payment Date, the amount of total Commissions accrued and payable to Affiliate is less than $50.00, then such accrued and payable balance shall be held over to the following month, and paid together with the Commissions due for that month.

(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.
