promotes or engages in illegal activities;

including our links to others when you do not have authority to do so.

You will be responsible for integrating the Tagged Links into your site(s) to properly

enable sales tracking.

to the subject matter hereof. No other agreements, representations, or warranties

have been made by either party to the other with respect to the subject matter of

this Agreement, except as referenced in this Agreement. This Agreement may be

amended only by a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of

both parties.

Conflicting Affiliates and Disputes

In the event both you and one or more other affiliates of REI Blackbook claim credit

for a Referred Customer, REI Blackbook may decide in its sole discretion, but acting

reasonably, upon an appropriate and equitable means of resolution. Without

limiting the foregoing, REI Blackbook may award the Referred Customer to one

party or may divide referral fees between you and another party. The decision of

REI Blackbook will be final and binding on all parties. Under no circumstances will

REI Blackbook be obligated to pay in the aggregate an amount that exceeds the total

referral fees that would have been due to any single referral partner. REI Blackbook

and Affiliate agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve any disagreement arising

out of, or in connection with, this Agreement through negotiation.

Reports and Audit

We shall prepare and maintain complete and accurate written records, in

least five (5) years following the date of invoice, and shall provide copies to you

upon request. We shall cooperate in promptly resolving any good faith fee disputes,

including escalation as necessary to personnel with decision-making authority.

You can track your Referral Fees by logging into our First Promoter Affiliate account

within the referral partner area (you are provided access upon the start of this

Agreement).

We shall provide each of you and your representatives with reasonable on-site

access to review and make copies of the fee records substantiating the amounts paid

and payable under this Agreement. In the event of any underpayment, we promptly

shall pay to you the underpayment.

procedures at any time, without notice.
