WHEREAS, the Streak Program permits Merchants to sell to Streak or its subsidiaries an agreed-upon portion of the Merchants’ future Receipts at a discount; and

WHEREAS, Independent Sales Organization wishes to promote the Streak Program, assist with its implementation and refer potential Merchants to Streak that may wish to participate in the Streak Program, all subject to the terms hereof; and

WHEREAS, Streak wishes to engage Independent Sales Organization to assist in marketing and referring to Streak or its subsidiaries Merchants that may wish to participate in the Streak program.

Schedule A

COMPENSATION:

The Independent Sales Organization may select a commission ranging from 0 to 12 points for each funded Merchant Agreement. This selection is made by the ISO within the Streak Funding Partner Portal (located at partners.streakfunding.com). Commissions may be down-sold to 0 points at the ISO's discretion. These terms apply unless otherwise modified in writing by Streak.

RENEWALS:

Same as above.

CLAWBACK POLICY:

If the Merchant blocks payments before Streak Funding LLC receives 20 cleared payments, the deal is considered a complete default and the commission will be returned, even if the Merchant unblocks payments (Unless there was a reasonable story and the deal immediately continues to be in good standing).

If the Merchant bounces more than 4 payments within the first 30 days, or more than 2 payments in a row, the deal will be considered a Default, unless the Merchant agrees to “catch up” with the payments and the deal continues to be in good standing.

If the Merchant lowers payments within the first 30 days, the deal is considered a default, unless the Merchant agrees to go up again after 1 or 2 weeks (and continues so for at least 2 weeks).

In general, if we claw back commissions when a deal goes bad, and we end up collecting more than the funded amount, we will consider giving back the commissions, despite the default status, especially if the ISO helps with the collection efforts. This is done on a deal-by-deal basis, depending on the circumstances.

If we don’t claw back commissions immediately after 30 days, it does not mean that the commissions will not be charged back if the deal actually went bad within 30 days – sometimes we will try to work with the Merchant to resolve the problem and if the Merchant works with us we will hold off from clawing back the commissions, unless the Merchant refuses to work with us, which at that point we will go back and enforce the claw back policy.

The commissions get clawed back by request; we will request the ISO to send us back the money. If the ISO does not send back the money within 2 days, we will debit the ISOs account for the amount paid.
