a) be self-employed, and determine in my sole discretion, when I work and the number of hours I work;
b) be paid Commissions based on purchases and sales and not the number of hours that I work;
c) be subject to entrepreneurial risk and responsible for all losses that I incur as a Sales Partner;
d) if required, obtain a federal employment identification number;

I represent, warrant, and covenant that I am not an employee, agent, or legal representative of Vitalità Angels, and except as permitted by this Agreement, I am not authorized to act on behalf of Vitalità Angels. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or will be deemed to constitute a partnership, agency, employer-employee, or a joint venture relationship between Vitalità Angels and me.
1.4 Marketing of Vitalità Angels Products and Services.
I will promote the retail sale of Vitalità Angels Products in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. I agree not to make any claims about Vitalità Angels Products and the Sales Compensation Plan unless they are contained on Vitalità Angels labels or in official Vitalità Angels literature. Vitalità Angels will pay me Commissions for the sale of Vitalità Angels Products less returns. I understand and agree that, in order to be eligible to receive Commissions, I must meet all requirements outlined in the Sales Compensation Plan, including retail sales, and not be in violation of the terms of this Agreement. I will not purchase any Vitalità Angels Products solely for the purpose of qualifying for Commissions. I agree that prior to placing a subsequent order for Vitalità Angels Products, I have sold or consumed at least eighty percent (80%) of the Vitalità Angels Products from any previous orders. I agree to encourage, supervise, and assist my downline organization’s efforts to sell Vitalità Angels Products to retail customers.
1.5 Refunds.

1.6 Commission Check Deposit. I authorize Vitalità Angels to either (i) deposit the payment of any Commissions due to my account at the financial institution designated by me in my Sales Partner Portal or (ii) issue to me a debit card with the amount of any Commissions due. This authorization, as specified in this Agreement and in my Sales Partner Portal, will remain in full force and effect until (i) Vitalità Angels has received written notice from me of my withdrawal from the direct deposit or debit card program, and (ii) Vitalità Angels has a reasonable opportunity to make such a change pursuant to my notice. I understand that this authorization replaces any previous authorization and will remain in effect until Vitalità Angels receives written notice of my withdrawal from the direct deposit or debit card program. I agree that I must notify Vitalità Angels immediately (i) prior to changing or closing the above account, or (ii) if my financial institution changes my routing number or account number. Failure to notify Vitalità Angels of account number changes may delay my receipt of Commissions. If I change my financial institution and/or account number, I must update the information in my Sales Partner Portal before I close my existing account. Vitalità Angels will not be liable to me for failing to access my account, provide direct deposits to my account in a timely manner, or issue a debit card in a timely manner unless such failure or loss is a direct result of Vitalità Angels’ gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Vitalità Angels’ liability will not exceed the amount of the funds that would have otherwise been deposited.
