This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions which apply to your participation as a member of the Adult Cartel Affiliate Program (hereinafter called the "Adult Cartel Program" or "Affiliate Program" or simply "Program") an Affiliate Program owned by Cartel Ventures LLC. (the "Company"). As used in this Agreement, "you" or "your" means the applicant or member already enrolled into the program.

THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM. BY SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION FOR ENROLLMENT IN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM YOU ARE AFFIRMATIVELY STATING THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH HEREIN AND ARE AFFIRMATIVELY INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT AND THAT YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS HEREOF. YOU CANNOT BECOME A MEMBER OF THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM UNLESS YOU HAVE ACCEPTED EACH AND EVERY TERM LISTED BELOW.

1. Enrollment in this Program. In order to be enrolled into our affiliate program, you will have to submit a completed application through our website located at: http://nats.adultcartel.com/signup.php.

In order to enroll and participate in our affiliate program, you must be over the age of eighteen (18) years of age.

We will evaluate your application in good faith and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection. We may reject your application if, in our sole and unfettered discretion, we determine that your site(s) are unsuitable for the program for any reason.

2. Commissions. Commissions can be earned by generating memberships to one of the web sites listed under the Adult Cartel webmaster program. Our current payout offering is:

For Webmasters: Commission payouts are based on subscriptions or monthly memberships with a billing price of $34.99. We pay you a commission based upon the type of membership generated from your account or the linking option you choose minus program and processing fees. This equates to approximately $12.50 per member per month. Affiliates are paid every month for the life of the member no matter what paysite the customer moves his membership into the succeeding months of their membership lifetime.

For Program Owners: Commissions will be 50% of the $34.99 monthly billing price minus program and processing fees. Program owners will also earn an additional 10% referral fee for the life of a member once said member moves his membership into another site listed in the Adult Cartel program that is not owned by you if the member initially joined the Adult Cartel program using one of your sites.

For Both Program Owners & Webmasters: Our program fee is 15% of the monthly bill price. Of that fee, we reimburse the Program Owners 10% when applicable as a bonus for placing their paysites into the Cartel. Our tours contain no consoles or other traffic leaks. This is a symbiotic between Adult Cartel and yourselves and as such if you get them to the join page, we make sure there are no leaks away from signing up to the intended paysite. We have minimal upsells in the landing page used for all members and any fees generated is not to be included in any commission payouts to webmasters or program owners. By the same token, Program Owners who have upsells inside their membership areas do not share their commissions with us.

3. Commission Payment. Payments due and owing to you under the Affiliate Program will be paid to you directly by the Affiliate Program. There is one (1) payment per month. Checks are sent out within five (5) days following the end of the pay period as long as your account has accrued the minimum payout amount of $100. If the amount is less it is carried over from pay period to pay period until you have accrued the minimum payout amount.

Payments will be sent via regular mail to the address on file. You have the option of being paid by wire or cable transfer pending special approval and you will be charged the sum of up to $45.00 to cover wiring or cable transfer costs. If the payment is due to be made on a non-business day (Sat., Sun., or U.S. observed holiday), the payment will be made on the next business day. Our log files will prevail in determining amount of clicks and sign-ups.

4. Responsibility for Your Site. While we may review your site(s) for suitability in the Affiliate Program, you will be solely responsible for the development, operation and maintenance of your site(s) and for all materials that appear on your site(s).

UNSOLICITED EMAIL

8. Unsolicited email may be illegal or subject to seperate and distinctively different laws in various jurisdictions. You must be aware of, and comply with, all applicable laws in your jurisdiction and the jurisdiction of the locations your emails will be sent to.

As you are likely aware, the United States recently enacted the CAN-SPAM Act and the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) has issued its final Rule to prescribe what must be included in all commercial electronic mail that contains sexually oriented materials.

9. All individuals mailing sexually explicit materials must comply:

(a) The exact phrase "SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:" must be contained in capital letters as the first 19 characters at the beginning of the subject line. This phrase in the subject line must be in ASCII format.

(b) The exact phrase "SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:" must be in capital letters as the first 19 characters in the "brown paper wrapper" area of the email message. The Brown Paper Wrapper refers to the opening portion of the e-mail that is immediately visible to the recipient, without the need to scroll down or taking any other affirmative steps to view the message. However, sexually explicit material may be displayed beneath the "brown paper wrapper" area of the email message or accessed by clicking on a link.

(c) The Rule also requires the mandatory disclosure of the sender's "valid physical postal address" to be "clear and conspicuous," like the other required disclosures.

(d) In addition, the "brown paper wrapper" area must indicate that the message itself is an advertisement or solicitation, and contain an e-mail address that the recipient can reply to declining any further commercial e-mail messages from the sender.

(e) As CAN SPAM covers both visual images as well as the written word, the subject line must not contain text with written descriptions of Sexually Explicit Conduct. Also the "brown paper wrapper" area of the email message must not contain Materials with Sexually Explicit Conduct. Sexually Explicit Conduct means actual or simulated sexual intercourse [including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal, whether heterosexual or homosexual]; bestiality; masturbation; sadistic or masochistic abuse; or lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of a human being.

If you have any questions, please contact your sales representative.

10. Term of the Agreement.

Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party notice of termination. Notice by email, to your email address in our records, is considered sufficient notice for us to terminate this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated because you have violated the terms of this Agreement you waive any right to receive any payments due and unpaid to you, even for commissions earned prior to the date of termination. If this Agreement is terminated for any other reason, you are only eligible to payments on sales occurring during the term of the Agreement, and commissions earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the related subscriptions are not canceled or returned.
