DISTRIBUTOR RULES OF PM-INTERNATIONAL AG

1. LEGAL POSITION OF THE DISTRIBUTOR

1.1. A Distributor is a self-employed salesperson, who intends to earn income through the distribution of FitLine products.

1.2. A Distributors’ distributary activities include selling FitLine products in their own name directly to end consumers, referring end consumers to PM (Customer Direct Program) and referring new Distributors to PM as a sponsor.

1.3. Distributors have no operational obligations and can freely decide when, where, how and how much they work. Distributors must bear all costs relating to their business themselves. Each Distributor is an independent contractor, and as such responsible for the fulfillment of all legal obligations resulting from the business (registering a company, income tax, sales tax, social insurance, competition law).

1.4. Distributors run their business part-time; anyone realizing this is no longer the case must notify PM thereof.

2. BEGINNING AND ENDING A DISTRIBUTORSHIP

2.1. A Distributorship begins with a completed application by the Distributor; it becomes a valid agreement as soon as the application has been accepted by PM. It is not necessary to order FitLine Products to become a Distributor. PM will inform a Distributor of the acceptance of their application without delay.

2.2. Within 30 days of receiving notice of the acceptance of the application, a Distributor can withdraw their application by means of a written declaration to PM without stating any reasons. After the withdrawal of the application, all FitLine products purchased as a Distributor may be returned and PM will reimburse the full amount paid for them.

2.3. A Distributorship is concluded for an indefinite time; it can be ordinarily terminated at any time according to the legal notice period. The right to an extraordinary termination for cause remains unaffected. If a Distributor is in breach of its obligations under articles 3.3, 4.1, 4.2, 5.2 or 7.4 of the Distributor Rules, PM generally considers this a cause for termination.

2.4. The Distributor shall regularly review and update the data provided in the application, especially name, address, bank account information, email and telephone.

2.5. In the case of death of the Distributor, the Distributorship can be transferred to a spouse, child, or parent if the transfer is requested in writing with the agreement of all heirs, the transferee accepts the PM Distributor Rules in the actual version and PM agrees in writing. PM’s agreement may only be refused for an important reason.

3. ENTITLEMENT TO BONUS

3.1. For the referral of end consumers through the Customer Direct Program as well as for introducing, training and supporting new distributors referred as a Sponsor, the Distributor will receive a bonus which will depend on the FitLine products bought by the new end consumer or distributor. The bonus will also be paid for further orders by these end consumers and distributors as well as any other orders of FitLine products in the Distributor’s sponsor line. The right to a bonus arises once the products have been paid for. Requirements for, and the amounts of the bonus can be taken from the PM Income Plan in the form valid at the time of referral; PM may decide to make amendments to the Income Plan which apply to all Distributors.

The statement is stored in the user account in the PM back office. Bonus payments can be made either by bank transfer to a valid IBAN or via PM Pay+. Payment of the bonus will be made by the 20th of the following month at the latest. If the monthly settlement of the bonus results in an amount of less than €5.00 net, (or the corresponding amount in local currency) no payment will be made and the claim will expire.

This includes the sponsoring of Distributors who do not actually sell FitLine products (straw men), as well as open or disguised multiple registrations to the extent prohibited.
