3. Testimonials and Endorsements. As used in this Agreement, an “Endorsement” means any Ad (including but not limited to Affiliate testimonials or endorsements, other consumer testimonials or endorsements, celebrity or expert endorsements, blogs, verbal statements, demonstrations, or depictions of the name, signature, likeness or other identifying personal characteristics of an individual or the name, logo or seal of an organization) that consumers are likely to believe reflects the opinions, beliefs, findings, or experience of a person or entity other than PE. The Affiliate or other person or entity whose opinions, beliefs, findings, or experiences the Endorsement appears to reflect shall be referred to as the “Endorser.” Use of Endorsements is subject to the requirements below. PE reserves the right to research, monitor and audit Affiliate’s use of Endorsements, and to determine, in PE’ sole discretion, whether Affiliate is in compliance with these requirements. Failure of PE to research, monitor, or audit Affiliate’s use of Endorsements shall not relieve Affiliate from compliance with these requirements.

a. Endorsements must reflect the honest opinions, findings, beliefs and/or experience of the Endorser, and may not convey an express or implied representation that would be deceptive if made directly by PE.

b. Endorsements may not be presented out of context or reworded so as to distort in a material way the Endorser’s opinion or experience with the PE product or service.

c. If the Endorsement represents that the Endorser uses a PE product or service, the Endorser must have been a bona fide user of it at the time the Endorsement was given.

d. No Endorsement containing statements reflecting the objective experience of an individual or group on a central or key attribute of a PE product or service may claim that the experience is representative of what consumers will generally achieve.

e. If the Endorser was or will be paid for his/her Endorsement, or there is or was any other material connection between the Endorser and PE, Affiliate must include in the Ad a clear and conspicuous disclosure, in close proximity to the Endorsement, that the Endorser has been or will be paid for his/her Endorsement or otherwise disclose the material connection between Endorser and PE. Examples of acceptable disclosures include:

    “I may earn compensation for my review, promotion or mention of the Pharm East, Inc. products discussed on this web site.”
    “I have partnered with Pharm East, Inc. to make these products available to you.”

f. If an Endorsement represents, directly or by implication, that the Endorser is an expert, then the Endorser's qualifications must in fact give him/her the expertise that he/she is represented as possessing with respect to the endorsement.

g. Affiliate may use the Endorsement only as long as Affiliate has good reason to believe that the Endorser continues to subscribe to the views presented.

h. Endorsements shall be in compliance with all laws.

4. Email. If Affiliate distributes Affiliate Ads by email, Affiliate shall:

a. Remove from the transmission list any email address associated with any person who has previously requested not to receive commercial email solicitations from the “Sender” of the message, as that term is defined by the CAN-SPAM Act.

b. Remove from the transmission list any email address associated with a wireless domain name, as listed on the then-current list of wireless domains maintained by the Federal Communications Commission.

c. Ensure that each email message includes (i) clear and conspicuous notice of the recipient’s right to opt-out of receiving future commercial messages from the Sender; and (ii) a functional electronic mechanism that the recipient can use to make such an opt-out request, in compliance with the requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act and Federal Trade Commission regulations and guidelines implementing the CAN-SPAM Act.

d. Ensure that “subject” and “from” lines used in any email communications are truthful and non-misleading and do not otherwise violate the CAN-SPAM Act or any other federal and state consumer protection laws and regulations and do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of any third party.

5. Compliance Monitoring. PE audits every Affiliate’s Affiliate Ads on a regular basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PE has no obligation to monitor Affiliate and is not responsible for Affiliate’s failure to comply with this Agreement. Affiliates that PE determines, in its sole discretion, are in violation of this Agreement, will have their account permanently removed from the Program and will not be compensated.

Payment The following “Payment” section is subject to PE’s then-current and applicable Commission structure:

1. PE will pay Affiliate a Commission (“Commission”) of ​fifty percent (50%) of the ​profit of the first order only for all consummated sales of Product to consumers resulting directly from dissemination or distribution of an Affiliate Ad, exclusive of shipping, handling, taxes, merchant processing fees, refunds/returns, chargebacks, and any other charges related to the sale of the Product.  For Products sold to a particular customer initially brought to PE for the first time by Affiliate through an Affiliate Ad, the Commission shall be as described above. ​

A list of products and their applicable Commission payouts can be obtained by contacting affiliates@pharmeast.com. PE reserves the right to change the Commission percentage payable to Affiliate for the sale of any Product at any time, for any or no reason.  Details on such changes in Commission shall be available to Affiliate upon Affiliate’s written request to  affiliates@pharmeast.com.  If the sales price has been reduced or discounted, Commission will be paid on the discounted price. Products purchased by Affiliate at wholesale pricing or for personal use are not eligible for Commission. To track sales eligible for Commission, Affiliate can log-on to their account at: https://://pharmeast.com/affiliate-login-page

2. PE calculates Commission due to Affiliates once per month, for sales made via Affiliate Ads from the 1st ​to the end of the month (“Reporting Period”). PE will make every effort to pay you the Commission due for a Reporting Period within 15 days following the end of the Reporting Period plus 1 Month; however, PE is not bound to make payments by this deadline. If you have questions about transactions eligible for Commission or dispute PE’s reports regarding sales eligible for Commission, you must contact PE at affiliates@pharmeast.com within three (3) business days following the end of the Reporting Period; otherwise you shall be deemed to have accepted the Commission as paid. PE will work with you in good faith to resolve any such dispute; however, PE shall have the authority to make the final determination, in PE’s sole discretion, as to the resolution of all disputes. Unless otherwise arranged with PE and confirmed in writing, payments to you will be made via direct deposit to the banking account you have on file with PE.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL UNITED STATES CITIZENS: We only pay Commissions via direct deposit and you, as a U.S. company or citizen, MUST fill out a U.S. W-9 Tax Form before receiving any Commissions. Foreign companies or entities must comply with all U.S. laws, regulations, and requirements, including trade restrictions. Export of any product is at Affiliate’s sole risk. Affiliate must comply with all laws, including but not limited to U.S. and applicable foreign laws, related to trade compliance, licensing, labeling, and sales and marketing. Affiliate will defend, indemnify and hold harmless PE from any violation or claim of violation of such laws, regulations, or requirements.

Use of Sub-Affiliates.

1. Affiliate agrees not to broker or resell Affiliate Ads, or otherwise engage or arrange for other parties (“Sub-Affiliates”) to distribute Affiliate Ads without express written permission from PE, which may be withheld for any reason. Affiliate’s failure to comply with the preceding provision will result in (a) Affiliate automatically forfeiting the right and claim to any revenue generated for its account, (b) immediate termination of Affiliate’s participation in the Program, and (c) sole liability to PE for all damages related to such breach.

2. If PE approves Affiliate’s use of Sub-Affiliates, Affiliate (a) must require each Sub-Affiliate to agree in writing to terms and conditions substantially similar to the Affiliate Requirements in this Agreement, and (b) remains solely responsible and liable to PE for all of the actions (or failure to act) of any such Sub-Affiliate or any other parties working with, for, or under such Sub-Affiliate. Affiliate must keep records of all Sub-Affiliates and Affiliate Ads distributed by Sub-Affiliates during the term that this Agreement remains effective and for a period of at least two (2) years thereafter. Affiliate must immediately comply with any demand by PE to terminate any Sub-Affiliate from distributing Affiliate Ads.
