I acknowledge that this Agreement, the Compensation Plan and the AMERIPRO Policies and Procedures incorporated herein by references constitute the entire Agreement between the parties hereto and shall not be modified or amended except as described in item 20 above.

22. During the term of the Independent Agent Agreement, Agents may not, directly or indirectly, sell to or solicit AMERIPRO products and services offered by AMERIPRO through any person or entity other than that specifically designated or approved in writing by AMERIPRO. Independent Agents shall not, during their relationship with AMERIPRO and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, directly or indirectly, divert, entice, knowingly call upon, sell or solicit, take away or move any customer of AMERIPRO or its supplier/service provider(s), whether or not the Independent Agent originally procured or brought such customer to AMERIPRO (such activities are collectively referred to herein as ‘Solicitation’). All customers solicited by Independent Agents on behalf of AMERIPRO and its supplier/service provider(s) are deemed to be customers of AMERIPRO or its supplier/service provider(s) and not of its Independent Agents. Independent Agents understand that such non-solicitation prohibition shall be strictly enforced and that AMERIPRO’s supplier/service provider(s) shall be a third party beneficiary of this prohibition as well as any proprietary and confidential information provided to AMERIPRO, which in turn is received by an Independent Agent. Further, during the term of the Independent Agent Agreement and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Agents may not enter into a direct marketing relationship with any supplier/service provider of AMERIPRO. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, AMERIPRO Independent Agents may not solicit a AMERIPRO Independent Agent, whether active, inactive, individual or entity to participate in a network marketing program offered by any other company, regardless of whether or not such network marketing company offers competing products or services. Violation of this covenant and condition will result in forfeiture of all distributorship rights, including all current and future commissions, bonuses and payments of any kind.
23. I authorize AMERIPRO to charge my credit card account or debit my bank account for my monthly fee. I understand that the fee will be applied to my account today and on my monthly anniversary date.
