The terms and conditions herein ensure the mutual success and understanding of The Parties.

3. AFFILIATE PROGRAM.

Changing Courses 11 operates an affiliate marketing program (“Affiliate Program”) that allows third party Affiliates to advertise, promote, and market Changing Courses 11’s product, the Roadmap

Exclusive, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In exchange for advertising, promotion, and marketing, Affiliates are paid a commission on sales of the Roadmap Exclusive generated by the Affiliates. The Affiliate Program is hosted through searchie.io, a third-party platform used to manage and sell the Roadmap Exclusive courses. Affiliates may be required to sign up for their own account on searchie.io in order to access the Roadmap Exclusive courses and may be subject to separate terms and conditions for their use of searchie.io, its website, and its services. Changing Courses 11, LLC is partnered with Stan Store, an affiliate platform that will house the Affiliate Program. Stan Store will be responsible for actions including, but not limited to, tracking affiliate sales and earnings and2

processing and paying out earned commissions. Affiliates may be subject to separate terms and conditions for their use of Stan Store, its website, and its services. Upon joining the Affiliate Program, Affiliates will be given a link in which they can use to advertise, promote, and market Roadmap Exclusive. When a customer purchases Roadmap Exclusive through the Affiliate’s link, it will be

tracked and attributed to the Affiliate through Stan Store according to their terms and conditions and commissions earned will be paid out to Affiliate per Section 4 of this Agreement.

4. COMMISSIONS AND PAYMENTS.

The Affiliate Program is a Pay-Per-Sale commission structure; Affiliates earn a commission for each sale generated through their affiliate link. Affiliates will earn a one-time sale commission rate equal to 80% of the purchase price of Roadmap Exclusive. An Affiliate becomes eligible to receive a commission when the customer has completed the purchase of Roadmap Exclusive. Commissions are considered earned once the refund period has lapsed and payment to the Affiliate has

been processed. Sales of the Roadmap Exclusive and commissions earned by Affiliates are

processed by Stan Store. Commissions earned will be split at the time of sale and held per the terms and conditions of Stan Store. Changing Courses 11 offers customers a three (3) day buyer’s remorse period for Roadmap Exclusive in which the customer can submit a request for a refund if the product does not live up to the standards expected. If a customer’s refund request is granted, the Affiliate will not earn commission for that sale. Initiating chargebacks may be considered fraudulent if initiated after the refund period has expired.
