This Marketing Affiliate Program Agreement (“Affiliate Program” or “Agreement”) states the terms and conditions of how we at American Biotech Labs, LLC (“ABL” or “we”) will work with you (the “Affiliate” or “you”) in our business relationship.  The date on which your Application is approved, will become the effective date of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”).  For you to be able to participate in our Affiliate Program, you are required to agree with all the terms and conditions of this Marketing Affiliate Program Agreement.

1.     DEFINITIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS.

1.1        Non-Exclusive Appointment. ABL is engaging you the Affiliate on a non-exclusive basis to introduce ABL and its Products to Third Parties and to solicit orders for the sale of Products to Third Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, where Affiliate has existing contacts, familiarity, influence, and at least one active social media account. This Agreement is non-exclusive because it is understood that Affiliate will be introducing and soliciting orders for products of other vendors besides ABL.

1.2        Products. The Products that Affiliate may introduce to approved Third Parties and solicit orders for are listed on ABL’s shopping cart (“Products or ABL products”).  Nothing in this Agreement will obligate ABL to continue manufacturing, producing, or selling any particular Product.

1.3        Pricing. Affiliate may solicit orders for the Products quoting only the prices, processes, terms, and conditions as are then authorized by ABL in writing and as listed on ABL’s shopping cart. All sales of Products shall be at prices and upon terms and conditions established by ABL in its sole discretion. ABL has the right, in its sole discretion, to establish, change, alter, or amend prices and other terms and conditions of sale. ABL reserves the right to refuse or restrict any order based on (a) the customer’s financial condition or payment history, (b) Product or raw material unavailability, or (c) any other limits or restrictions on ABL’s ability to accept the order or complete the sale.

1.4        Product Information. Neither Affiliate nor any of its employees or agents shall make (a) any representation or warranty about the Products other than those stated in written materials and Product literature provided by ABL, or (b) any unauthorized statements or claims about ABL or its Products. In addition, Affiliate agrees not to disclose the identity of any private-label customers of ABL.

1.5        Laws. Affiliate must comply with all applicable laws and regulations and adhere to the highest business ethics in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

1.6        No License. Affiliate acknowledges that ABL is not granting Affiliate any license to use any of ABL’s intellectual property, except for the proper use of ABL’s Product names and Product information, according to ABL’s guidelines.

1.7        Potential Market for Products. Affiliate represents and warrants that Affiliate is relying solely on its own judgment about the potential market for Products and is not relying on any information provided or representations made by ABL.

1.8        Training and Support.  ABL may make available to you, without charge, various training and support documents, including webinars and other resources as part of our Affiliate Program.  We would encourage you to study this information and to participate in any of the training programs and/or certification programs that ABL may recommend to you.  ABL may change or discontinue training and support programs or other provided information, at any time without notice.

2.     COMMISSION PAYMENTS.

2.1        Agreement to Pay. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, ABL agrees to pay Affiliate a Sales Commission on all Product sales to whom Affiliate directly introduces the Products and for those Affiliate’s clients or referrals who purchase Products using Affiliate’s Assigned Coupon Code.

2.2     Commission Amounts. Where Affiliate is entitled to a Sales Commission under the terms of this Agreement, the Sales Commission is currently set at eleven percent (11%) and paid on ABL’s Net Sale.  As used in this Agreement, “Net Sales” means the total of the collected ABL Product sold using the Affiliate’s Assigned Coupon Code less the following items: (i) sales discounts (including sales rebates); (ii) sales returns, which are typically offset against Affiliate’s future Sales Commissions and owed by Affiliate to ABL until paid in full; (iii) shipping and transaction costs, such as Value Added Tax, CIF charges and packaging expenses that are not paid by the customer; and (iv) any other required fees paid to a third party.  ABL reserves the right to change or alter the Sales Commission rate.

2.3        Calculation and Payment. ABL or the Affiliate Tool will calculate the Sales Commissions on a monthly basis, based on the total Net Sales using Affiliates Assigned Coupon Code.  Payments will be paid to the Affiliate’s PayPal account on or about the tenth (10th) day of the following month. There is no monthly minimum that Affiliate must achieve and no monthly base commission that ABL will pay to Affiliate.

2.4        Requirements for Payment; Forfeiture.  Notwithstanding the forgoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any of the requirements set forth in this Section 2 remain outstanding for six (6) months immediately following the close of a Customer Transaction, then Affiliate’s right to receive a Sales Commission arising from any and all Customer Transactions with the associated Customer, will be forever forfeited (each, a “Forfeited Transaction”).  ABL shall have no obligation to pay Affiliate a Sales Commission associated with a Forfeited Transaction.  Once Affiliate complies with all the requirements of this Agreement, then Affiliate will be eligible to receive a Sales Commission on Customer Transactions.  Please verify that you have completed the set up with Refersion Pay. ABL will NOT pay by PayPal or by check. 

2.5        No Apportionment. ABL shall not be obligated to pay more than the Sales Commission amounts set forth in this Agreement and if Affiliate is working with others to obtain product sales, Affiliate shall apportion that amount from their own account, once the Sale Commission has been paid to their PayPal account based on their Assigned Coupon Code. 

2.6        Non-Circumvention. The Sales Commission will be paid on all sales of Products that use Affiliate’s Assigned Coupon Code except: (a) if this Agreement is terminated, Affiliate’s Sales Commission will be paid for any earned Sales Commissions unpaid on the date of termination; and (b) the payment of Sales Commissions after the termination date of this Agreement will be governed by Section 4.3.

2.7        Involvement. ABL’s payment of Sales Commissions to Affiliate depends on Affiliate’s clients using Affiliate’s Assigned Coupon Code to purchase Products from ABL.  The required involvement includes, at a minimum: (i) that Affiliate must respond to questions from their clients; and (ii) Affiliate will demonstrate that they are communicating on an ongoing basis with their clients via active monthly postings to their social media accounts about ABL Products.

The party entitled to indemnity may participate in the defense of any such Claims at its own expense through counsel of its own choosing.

4.4        The Effects of Termination.  Expiration of this Agreement, and termination of this Agreement: (i) without cause by ABL,(ii) by Affiliate with cause, (iii) by Affiliate according to the ‘Termination for Agreement Changes’ section, shall not affect ABL’s obligation to pay Affiliate a Commission, so long as the related payment by the customer transaction is recognized by ABL within thirty (30) days after the date of such termination or expiration.  ABL will not pay Affiliate fees on Customer Transactions recognized by ABL after thirty (30) days after the date of such termination or expiration set out above.  Provided however, in the event of termination without cause by Affiliate, or for cause by ABL, our obligation to pay and Affiliate’s right to receive any Commission will terminate upon the date of such termination, regardless of whether Affiliate would have otherwise been eligible to receive Commission prior to the date of termination. Except as expressly set forth in this section, Affiliate is not eligible to receive a Commission payment after expiration or termination of this Agreement. Upon termination or expiration, Affiliate will discontinue all use of and delete the Affiliate Tool that ABL made available to you during your participation in the Affiliate Program. Upon termination or expiration, an Affiliate Lead is not considered valid, and ABL may choose to maintain it in our database and engage with such a prospect.  Upon termination or expiration, Affiliate will immediately discontinue all use of all ABL trademarks and references to this Affiliate Program from your website(s) and other collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not cause a Customer’s subscription agreement to be terminated.

5.     PROTECTIVE COVENANTS.

5.1        Confidential Information. ABL is part of an affiliated group of companies, including American Silver, LLC, ABL Manufacturing, LLC, and ABL Medical, LLC (each, an “ABL Company,” and collectively with ABL, the “ABL Companies”). Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that in connection with performing the contract services set forth in this Agreement, Affiliate will be provided with or otherwise exposed to or receive certain Confidential Information belonging to one or more ABL Companies.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean, with respect to any of the ABL Companies, whether individually or in any combination, all tangible and intangible non-public information in any form regarding the ABL Company or its business operations, including (i) information concerning such ABL Company’s trade secrets, products, marketing techniques, and sales strategies; financial condition and information; customers, clients, suppliers, or vendors; (ii) confidential, non-public information that such ABL Company maintains about its employees; and (iii) all other information that is not generally known in the nano-silver technology industry (the “Silver Technology Industry”) that gives such ABL Company a competitive advantage, that is identified by the ABL Company as confidential or proprietary, or that is deemed confidential, protected, a trade secret, or proprietary under applicable law.  Confidential Information does not become any less confidential or proprietary to any of the ABL Companies because Affiliate may commit some of the information to memory or because Affiliate has maintained Confidential Information outside of ABL’s offices.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information excludes information not protected by trademark, copyright, patent, or other similar state, federal, or worldwide protection and that, through no fault of Affiliate, is generally known to the public, is generally employed in the Silver Technology Industry at or after the time Affiliate first learns of such information, or is generic information or knowledge which Affiliate would have learned in the course of similar employment or work elsewhere in the Silver Technology Industry; provided, however, that Affiliate shall bear the burden of proving that any information disclosed or used by Affiliate does not meet the definition of Confidential Information set forth above or that the disclosure or use of Confidential Information occurred through no fault of Affiliate.

      Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that (i) the ABL Companies are engaged in a highly-competitive business in the Silver Technology Industry; (ii) the ABL Companies have expended considerable time and resources to develop goodwill with their customers, vendors, and others, and to create, protect, and exploit the Confidential Information; (iii) in carrying out the contract services under this Agreement, Affiliate will be creating Confidential Information that belongs to ABL and enhances the goodwill of the ABL Companies; and (iv) Affiliate will have access to Confidential Information that could be used by any competitor of the ABL Companies in a manner that would irreparably harm the ABL Companies’ competitive position in the marketplace and dilute their goodwill.

5.2        Use of Confidential Information. At all times during the term of this Agreement and following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that (i) all Confidential Information shall remain and be the sole and exclusive property of the ABL Companies; (ii) Affiliate will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect and safeguard all Confidential Information; (iii) Affiliate will hold all Confidential Information in strictest confidence and not, directly or indirectly, disclose or divulge any Confidential Information to any person other than an officer, manager, employee or legal counsel for the ABL Companies, except to the extent necessary to provide the contracted services under this Agreement, unless authorized to do in writing by the American Silver Board of Managers or compelled to do so by law or valid legal process; (iv) if Affiliate believes it is compelled by law or valid legal process to disclose or divulge any Confidential Information, Affiliate will notify ABL in writing sufficiently in advance of any such disclosure in order to allow the applicable ABL Company the opportunity to defend, limit, or otherwise protect its interests against such disclosure; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be construed as prohibiting or delaying Affiliate’s ability to comply with legal counsel’s reasonable advice with respect to compliance with applicable law or the orders or any court; and (iv) upon termination of this Agreement for any reason or at the request of ABL at any time, Affiliate will return to ABL all Confidential Information and all copies thereof, in whatever tangible form or medium, including electronic. 

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Affiliate is hereby notified in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (“DTSA”) that Affiliate will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (a) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.  Affiliate is further notified that if Affiliate files a lawsuit for retaliation by any ABL Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Affiliate may disclose such company’s trade secrets to Affiliate’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Affiliate files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  Affiliate understands that it will be bound by any subsequent changes or amendments to the DTSA.

5.3        Non-Solicitation of Customers.  Affiliate covenants and agrees that during the term of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year following the latter of (A) the termination of this Agreement or (B) the date Affiliate last breaches any of the non-solicitation provisions of this Agreement (the “Non-Solicit Period”), Affiliate will not, except in properly performing the contract services under this Agreement, either individually or on behalf of or with any other person or entity other than an ABL Company, directly or indirectly solicit the purchase or otherwise attempt to sell products and/or services of any kind or character that are the same as or similar to any products and/or services offered by any of the ABL Companies to any current or prospective customer that, at the time this Agreement terminates or during the one (1) year period immediately preceding such termination, was a current or prospective customer of ABL and was referred to Affiliate to solicit on behalf of any ABL Company.

5.4        Non-Solicitation of Personnel.  Affiliate covenants that during the Non-Solicit Period, Affiliate will not, except in properly performing the contract services under this Agreement, either individually or on behalf of or with any other person or entity other than ABL, directly or indirectly solicit or otherwise induce any employee or independent contractor of any ABL Company to terminate his/her employment or contract with such ABL Company.  If Affiliate, either individually or on behalf of or with any other person or entity, hires a current or former employee of ABL within six (6) months of the date such employee’s employment with ABL terminates, unless the employee was involuntarily terminated by ABL, Affiliate shall bear the burden of proving that such employee was not solicited or otherwise induced to terminate his/her employment by Affiliate, directly or indirectly, in violation of this Section 5.4.

5.5        Reformation.  The Parties intend to restrict Affiliate under this Agreement only to the extent necessary for the protection of ABL’s legitimate business interests.  The Parties agree that the scope, duration, and geographic area provisions are reasonable.  In the event a court of competent jurisdiction concludes that any provision of this Agreement is too restrictive, such provision(s) shall nevertheless be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by such court, and such provision(s) shall be reformed to the maximum scope, time, or geographic limitations determined appropriate by such court.

5.6        Remedies.  ABL and Affiliate agree that Affiliate’s covenants are separate and independent of any covenants of ABL in this Agreement or elsewhere, and any breach by ABL shall not justify or excuse any breach by Affiliate.  In the event of any actual or threatened breach of Sections 5.2, 5.3, or 5.4 of this Agreement, Affiliate specifically acknowledges that ABL will suffer irreparable damage and other damages beyond those that can be calculated, for which ABL has no adequate remedy at law.  Affiliate therefore acknowledges that ABL shall be entitled to ex parte injunctive relief, both preliminary and permanent, immediately and permanently restraining Affiliate from such continuing or threatened breach.  Affiliate hereby expressly waives any and all right to prior notice or to security in connection with any temporary or permanent injunctive relief.  In the event a bond or other undertaking is required of ABL, such bond or other undertaking shall not exceed the total sum of one thousand dollars and no/100 ($1,000).  Affiliate also shall remain liable for any damages sustained by reason of any actual or threatened breach by Affiliate of Sections 5.2, 5.3, or 5.4 of this Agreement.  The exercise of one or more of the rights or remedies provided by this Agreement or otherwise shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights also provided. 

6.     GENERAL PROVISIONS.

6.1        Notices: All notices shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) when delivered in person to an officer of the Party or (b) on the date of delivery, as confirmed by the U.S. Postal Service or a nationally or internationally recognized express delivery service (receipt or recipient signature required), in each case to the other Party at the Affiliate’s registered address or to ABL’s address below (or to such other address as shall be specified by a Party by proper notice).

The termination of this Agreement shall not affect or impair the right of either Party to receive damages or remedies arising from the other party’s breaches.

6.4        Third Party Beneficiaries. Except with respect to Section 5 of this Agreement, for which American Silver, LLC, ABL Manufacturing, LLC, and ABL Medical, LLC are third party beneficiaries, no other provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of, or be enforceable by, any Third Party, including without limitation any of Affiliate’s staff.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum liability of ABL arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, whether such liability arises from any claim based on breach of contract, warranty, tort or otherwise, shall in no case exceed the actual fees and/or other compensation paid to Affiliate by ABL. The limitations, disclaimers, and restrictions in this Section 6.5 shall apply, even if any remedy fails of its essential purpose.

6.6        No Waiver; Amendment.  No waiver by either party at any time of any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by the other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same time or any prior or subsequent time.  ABL may update and change any part or all of this Agreement, including by replacing it in its entirety. If ABL updates or changes this Agreement, the updated Agreement will be made available to Affiliate via the Affiliate Tool and/or by email. The updated Agreement will become effective and binding on the next business day after ABL or the Affiliate Tool has notified Affiliate. We encourage you to review this Agreement periodically.  If you don’t agree to the update, change or replacement, Affiliate can choose to terminate as describe above. No delay in exercising any right or remedy or failure to object will be a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy.

6.11     Construction. Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting this Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as if both Parties participated in drafting it, and no provision shall be construed against a Party based on the drafting of the provision. Affiliate acknowledges that Affiliate had the opportunity to seek legal representation with respect to this Agreement.

6.12     Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, the provision shall be limited, construed, modified or, if necessary, severed, to the extent necessary to eliminate its violability, invalidity, unenforceability or illegality, and the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain unaffected and continue in full force and effect.

6.13     Force Majeure.  Neither party will be responsible for failure or delay of performance if caused by: an act of war, hostility, or sabotage; act of God; electrical, internet, or telecommunication outage that is not caused by the obligated party; government restrictions; or other event outside the reasonable control of the obligated party. Each party will use reasonable efforts to mitigate the effect of a force majeure event.
