Effective Date: October 15, 2024

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. BY JOINING AND PARTICIPATING IN THE KIT AFFILIATE PROGRAM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL TERMS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. NOTE THAT SECTION 14 CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH, IF APPLICABLE TO YOU, AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, THEN DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE KIT AFFILIATE PROGRAM.

This Kit Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) applies to each affiliate’s (“Affiliate,” “you” or “your”) access to and participation in the Kit Affiliate Program (the “Program”), which is operated by Kit Inc. (“Company”, “our”, “us” or “we”). This Agreement does not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with Company for other products and services. In addition, this Agreement complements and incorporates by reference Company’s Terms of Services at https://kit.com/terms (“Terms of Service”). In the event of any conflict between the Terms of Service and this Agreement related to the Program, this Agreement will control. Each Affiliate is responsible for assuring that its employees, agents, and contractors comply with this Agreement. The “Site” refers to the Kit website at https://kit.com and “Your Website” refers to any websites that you will link to the Site.

1) Enrollment

To enroll in the Program, you must (1) complete the registration process and agree to the Affiliate Program Agreement at https://kit.com/affiliate-tos; and (2) provide valid payment details in the affiliate platform. After verification of your payment account (e.g., PayPal) by us, you may be granted access to the Program. Company reserves the right to re-evaluate your registration at any time and reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and your participation in the Program at any time with or without notice.

2) Eligibility / Sanctioned Nations

By participating in the Program, you warrant that you are not a resident of any country currently under sanction by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”). Please note that the list of sanctioned countries can change at any time; however, a current list can always be located at https://ofac.treasury.gov/sanctions-programs-and-country-information. Participation in the Program as a resident of a sanctioned country is prohibited. You further agree to comply with applicable OFAC restrictions and to not advertise or otherwise engage in commercial activities with persons or businesses residing in countries under sanction. You are responsible for compliance with the laws of your local jurisdiction. Each Affiliate is responsible for compliance with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations. Pursuant to Section 1, you must have a payment method accepted by the PartnerStack platform to participate, which is not available in all countries. Your use of PartnerStack and any accepted payment method (e.g., PayPal) will be subject to separate terms required and made available by such third-party, and will not be governed by this Agreement. You must have a valid payment method linked to your PartnerStack account to earn Affiliate Fees. If you do not provide your payment information within twelve months of the action that would result in an Affiliate Fee, you will not receive payment for such action.

3) How to Earn Affiliate Fees

Upon acceptance into the Program, unique links will be made available to you through the Site (your “Links”). You will be able to review the Program’s details and banner creatives, browse, and access other authorized marketing resources, which will be subject to the license in Section 9 and the terms of this Agreement.

Standard Affiliate Fees: Subject to the attribution standard in this Section 3, for each person that you refer to the Site using your Links that completes their first transaction on the Site that results in payment to Company (a “Referral”), you will receive a service fee (your “Standard Affiliate Fee”) calculated as follows:

• For Referrals made on or after October 15, 2024, you will receive 50% of the revenue generated by such customer for 12 months after the Referral. For example, if someone you refer starts their first monthly payment plan with Kit for $29 per month on October 15th, 2024 or later, you will receive a Standard Affiliate Fee of $14.50 for every month for up to 12 months, so long as the referred person remains an active, paying customer.
• For Referrals made on or before October 14, 2024, you will receive 30% of the revenue generated by such customer for 24 months after the initial Referral. For example, if someone you referred started their first monthly payment plan with Kit for $29 per month on October 14th, 2024 or earlier, you will receive a Standard Affiliate Fee of $8.70 for every month for up to 24 months, so long as the referred person remains an active, paying customer.

Status and Recurring Affiliate Fees : Starting January 1st, 2025, Affiliates can qualify for a status level (“Status”) that will allow them to earn recurring affiliate fees (“Recurring Affiliate Fees”) for each referred customer who remains a paying subscriber with Kit more than 12 months after the Referral (so long as the Referral was completed on or after January 1st, 2024). Affiliates qualify for Status as follows:

• Bronze – Complete 10+ (paid account) Referrals* in the prior calendar year
• Silver – Complete 50+ (paid account) Referrals* in the prior calendar year
• Gold – Complete 100+ (paid account) Referrals* in the prior calendar year

*Referrals made using paid methods such as pay-per-click ads do not count towards the number of Referrals accumulated to qualify for Status. Status changes generally take place yearly on or around January 1st. If you qualify for new or upgraded Status early in the calendar year, the change will not be effective until January 1st of the following year. Kit may, at its discretion, award Status at other times in the year or to Affiliates who do not otherwise qualify for a given Status based on accumulated Referrals, and may change or revoke an Affiliate’s Status at any time by giving written notice to such Affiliate. Recurring Affiliate Fees earned by each Affiliate with Status are calculated as a percentage (based on Status) of the revenue generated by each customer referred by the Affiliate who remains a paying subscriber with Kit more than 12 months after the Referral (so long as the Referral was completed on or after January 1st, 2024). The percentage applicable to each Status is as follows:

• Bronze – 10% in the current calendar year
• Silver – 15% in the current calendar year
• Gold – 20% in the current calendar year

Affiliates earn Recurring Affiliate Fees during any calendar year in which they remain an Affiliate and hold Status. If an Affiliate ceases to participate in the Program, is removed from the program for breaching agreement terms, or no longer qualifies for Status, the Affiliate will no longer earn Recurring Affiliate Fees for any previous or future Referrals until a later year in which they again hold Status.

Promotional or Additional Affiliate Fees: Company may, at its sole discretion offer promotional opportunities to receive additional affiliate fees (“Additional Affiliate Fees”). Company will notify you of any opportunity for Additional Affiliate Fees via your account page or email, and such opportunity to receive Additional Affiliate Fees will be subject to the terms and conditions stated in Company’s message or communication. Without an express notification from Company directed to you and compliance with any terms and conditions stated by Company, you will not receive any Additional Affiliate Fees. Additional Affiliate Fee opportunities may include the following:

• A flat rate per account signup
• A flat rate or percentage for feature adoption or activation
• Cash or prizes for promotional activities and contests
• For Affiliates with Status, recurring affiliate fees based on revenue generated from subscribers less than 12 months from the Referral

Affiliate Fees: Standard Affiliate Fees, Recurring Affiliate Fees, and Additional Affiliate Fees are collectively “Affiliate Fees”.
To earn Affiliate Fees, you must comply with all terms of this Agreement, including the Program Restrictions in Section 4 and FTC disclosure requirements in Section 5. Any Affiliate in breach of this Agreement (as determined by Kit) will not be eligible to earn or receive Affiliate Fees.

You will not receive an Affiliate Fee for any refunded or returned transactions and will not be entitled to any Affiliate Fee(s) if you have not provided a payment method pursuant to Section 2 above. If a refund is issued after the Affiliate Fee has already been approved and paid, a negative balance will be created on your account and will be deducted from future Affiliate Fees. Revenue generated by customers and Referrals for determining Affiliate Fees and Status are subject to verification and approval by Company.

Subject to the Kit’s discretion, the Referral and any corresponding Affiliate Fee will be attributed to the last Link that the person making the purchase clicked before completing their transaction, provided that such purchase occurs within 90 days of the Link being clicked. For example, if Customer A clicks on a Link provided by Affiliate X, but then clicks on a Link provided by Affiliate Y and completes a transaction on the Site, Affiliate Y will receive the Referral and full Affiliate Fee for transactions related to Customer A. Referrals and Affiliate Fees will not be split or transferred. For clarity, clicks on Links are valid for 90 days, so if a customer purchase is more than 90 days after clicking the Link, you will not receive a Referral or corresponding Affiliate Fee for such transaction. Kit may, at its discretion, award full or partial Referrals or Affiliate Fees to an Affiliate who, through education, training, or coaching opportunities, contributes to a customer completing a paid transaction with Kit, rather than the Affiliate to whom the Referral would otherwise be attributed as having provided the last Link. See Section 6 for information on payments, including processing, timing, and limitations.

5) FTC Disclosure Requirements

Where it is not expressly clear that the Link is a paid advertisement, paid advertising, or otherwise promotional in nature, and/or that you are receiving compensation from Company in connection with the Program, you must include a disclosure statement within any and all pages, blog posts, social media posts, or any other content where you include a Link or otherwise advertise or endorse the Site or Company in connection with the Program. This “material connection disclosure” statement should be clear, prominent and concise, stating that we are compensating you for your participation in the Program. Also, any statements you make about Company must reflect your honest opinions, beliefs, or experiences and must not be false, misleading, or unsupported. You must follow these guidelines in making your material connection disclosures:

• Disclosures must be made as close as possible to the claims.
• A plain language disclosure such as “I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post” would be sufficient. A disclosure of “affiliate link” by itself is not sufficient because consumers might not understand that “affiliate link” means that a commission payment will occur for purchases made through the link.
• Use #Ad where there isn’t sufficient room to explain more about the affiliate connection
• Disclosures should be placed above the fold; scrolling should not be necessary to find the disclosure (e.g., disclosure should be visible before the jump).
• Pop-up disclosures are prohibited.
• These standards apply to all advertising and messaging that uses the Link.

For more information about FTC disclosure requirements, see the FTC’s “Dot Com Disclosures” Guidelines at http://www.ftc.gov/os/2013/03/130312dotcomdisclosures.pdf; the FTC’s Endorsement Guidelines at
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/07/26/2023-14795/guides-concerning-the-use-of-endorsements-and-testimonials-in-advertising and the FTC’s Native Advertising Guidelines at https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/guidance/native-advertising-guide-businesses.

6) Payment of Affiliate Fees

Pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement, only transactions made by the referred individual that are completed after last using your Link will result in Affiliate Fees. You will not receive Affiliate Fees for transactions that are cancelled by customers, returned, charged back, or refunded. Affiliate Fees typically take 30-75 days to process in order to account for any refunds (refunds will result in no Affiliate Fee being awarded for the applicable, refunded transactions). Affiliate Fees will typically be approved by the 7th of every month for the Affiliate Fees earned over 31 days prior, with funds available for withdrawal on the 8th of every month for Affiliate Fees. For example, if you earn an Affiliate Fee on August 5th, it will appear in your account on September 5th, be approved by October 7th, and available for you to withdraw on October 8th. If the person that you refer pays monthly, you will receive payment of Affiliate Fees monthly. If the person that you refer pays annually, you will receive one payment of Affiliate Fees for the year, within approximately 31 days after the person pays for their annual purchase (provided the person does not obtain a refund). Kit may require additional time to process payments and is not liable for payment delays.

We reserve the right to exclude transactions and to not pay Affiliate Fees for them, if we deem it necessary, in our sole discretion, to prevent abuse of the Program, or to reject orders that do not comply with any requirements that we periodically may establish. If we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders or clicks that we suspect may be in violation of this Agreement, the Terms of Service, or any other terms and conditions that we publish on our website at www.kit.com/affiliate-tos, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. A failure to be forthcoming, responsive, or provide requested substantiation may result in your termination and removal from the Program. You are responsible for all taxes and reporting requirements related to your Affiliate Fees. We will track sales by customers who engage in transactions using your Link on your site to the Site. A statement of activity is available to you through your affiliate interface.

7) Audits/Records

You will maintain accurate and complete records relating to your conduct under the Program. Upon request, you will enable Company or its designated service provider to audit your records and other materials to verify your compliance with the Agreement. Company will provide notice of an audit request. In addition, you will promptly provide such records and other materials, and provide other cooperation and assistance, as requested by Company. You will promptly notify Company of any inquiry received by you from any news media, reporter, publication, trade association or governmental authority, and of any complaints or allegations of wrongdoing received by you, with regard to Company, the Program, or your conduct under this Agreement.

8) Modification and Termination

Company reserves the right to change, modify, and/or eliminate the Program and/or all or any portion of this Agreement or any policy pertaining to the Program at any time and for any reason in its sole discretion, including our right to discontinue or change the benefits or Affiliate Fees received or payable under the Program or merge the Program with another program. If we make changes, we will post the amended Agreement to www.kit.com/affiliate-tos and update the “Effective Date” above. We may also attempt to notify you in other ways, including via email. Unless we say otherwise, the amended Agreement will be effective immediately and your continued participation in the Program after the amended Agreement is posted will confirm your acceptance of the changes.

We have the right to monitor Your Website at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement. We may notify you of any changes to Your Website that must be made for your participation in the Program to continue. If you do not make the changes to Your Website that we feel are necessary, we reserve the right to terminate your participation in the Program.

Either party may terminate the Agreement in its entirety, with or without cause, by giving written notice to the other party. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, you will immediately cease all activities in connection with the Program, and you will immediately cease all use of, and remove from Your Website(s), all Links to the Site, and all of our trademarks, trade dress, and logos, and all other materials provided by or on behalf of us to you (including all Licensed Materials) pursuant hereto or in connection with the Program. Upon termination, you will receive no additional Affiliate Fees (which, for clarity, includes any Affiliate Fees from referrals that occurred prior to such termination). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company will pay the Affiliate Fees currently processing as of the date of termination (e.g., within the 60 day period pursuant to Section 3). Sections 7 (Audits and Records), 8 (Modification and Termination), 10 (Representations and Warranties), 11 (Disclaimer), 12 (Limitation of Liability), 13 (Indemnification), 14 (Dispute Resolution), 15 (Confidentiality), 16 (Miscellaneous) will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

9) Grant of Licenses

You and Company will attempt to resolve any dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After sixty (60) days, you or Company may commence arbitration.
• Binding Arbitration: If you and Company don’t resolve any dispute by informal negotiation, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration as described in this section. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all disputes in court before a judge or jury. The dispute will be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be conducted in Boise, Idaho, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered into any court of competent jurisdiction. The award of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review except as permitted by Idaho law. Either party may seek any interim or preliminary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, as necessary to protect the party’s rights or property pending the completion of arbitration. Any and all legal, accounting, and other costs, fees, and expenses incurred by the prevailing party will be borne by the non-prevailing party.
• Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individual Actions: You and Company agree that either may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as part of any purported class or representative action or proceeding unless both you and Company agree otherwise. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not preside over any form of a consolidated, representative or class proceeding.
