Referral Agreement (Effective October 1, 2004)


IQ Partners, LLC ("IQ Chart") is pleased to provide you with the IQ Chart Referral Program. By joining the IQ Chart Referral Program, you agree to be bound by all terms and conditions set forth in this Referral Agreement (the "Agreement").

1. TRACKING YOUR REFERRALS

IQ Chart will monitor the visitors who follow special links from your Web site (as defined in your IQ Chart registration information) to IQ Chart. IQ Chart will track members who register using special links from your Web site to our site and record the referral in our database. To permit accurate tracking, reporting and fee accrual, you must ensure that the special links between your Web site and IQ Chart are properly formatted.

2. REFERRAL FEES

2.1 IQ Chart will pay you a referral fee (the "Referral Fee") in an amount equal to U.S. $75 for each Qualified Referral. A "Qualified Referral" is a new member who meets all of the following conditions: 1) registers for the IQ Chart Program through the special links from your Web site as described in Paragraph 1 of this Agreement; 2) agrees to the applicable Terms of Use by way of a special link to the IQ Chart Web site; and 3) remains an active member for one (1) month from date of sign-up.

2.2 IQ Chart does not pay any Referral Fees under the following conditions: (1) if your Qualified Referral only signs on for our free trial period, which may or may not be available at the time, and does not continue the service once the free trial period expires; (2) if your Qualified Referral is an existing paying member or was an existing paying member; (3) if your Qualified Referral registers through our www.iqchart.com Web site and IQ Chart does not have a tracking card on file; or (4) if you referred yourself. Referral fees are not paid on an associate's personal account.

3. PAYMENT OF REFERRAL FEES

IQ Chart will pay you quarterly by PayPal or Check for each Qualified Referral; please note, quarterly payments will not begin until after your Qualified Referral has been an active IQ Chart subscriber for one (1) month:

  (1) One quarter of service fees collected will be held in reserve to cover any unexpected cancellations or refunds;

  (2) Once the reserve is collected, we will mail you a check or deposit to your PayPal account at the end of the quarter your referral qualified. The amount of the check will be for all Referral Fees earned in the prior quarter time period, less any applicable required tax withholding, chargebacks and/or refunds;

  (3) Payments will not be issued for earned amounts of less than $50.00;

  (4) If a Qualified Referral cancels the service and we need to refund membership fees, we will deduct the corresponding Referral Fee from your next quarterly payment or bill you for the refund amount if there is not sufficient funds in the reserve account to cover these refunds.

4. POLICIES AND PRICING

Customers who register through this Program are deemed to be our customers. We will be responsible for all aspects of order processing and fulfillment.
