Bonus Rules
  1. Eligibility. Any affiliate (“affiliate” “you,” or “your”) automatically becomes a qualified affiliate (“Qualified Affiliate”) and is eligible to receive a share of the May $120,000 Spring Bonus Blowout award (the “Bonus”) by:

    a. Participating in the adultfriendfinder.com or cams.com percentage payout (“revshare”) program from January, 1, 2009 and March 31, 2009; and
    b. Averaging of at least one confirmed sign-up (i.e., a member who signs-up, logs in and confirms his or her email address, and, in the case of adulfriendfinder, submits a profile that is subsequently approved) for the 90 days prior to April 15, 2009.
    c. Earning (as defined below) more than $50 in March 2009 or, in a few cases, even if you earned less that $50, being placed in the final grouping or bucket (the “Bucket”).
  2. Ranking; Creation of Buckets. We ranked Qualified Affiliates by their total earnings (i.e., the amount we pay you based upon the percentage of revenue we collect, exclusive of any bonuses previously earned, “Earnings”) in March 2009. For adultfriendfinder, we then placed the top five ranked Qualified Affiliates in the first Bucket. Thereafter, we created successive Buckets of next highest 20 Qualified Affiliates based upon these rankings until the final Bucket contained at least one Qualified Affiliate with Earnings above $50. For cams.com, the first Bucket is the top five Qualified Affiliates, and the succeeding Buckets are 10 each. A Qualified Affiliate can have an adultfriendfinder Bucket and a cams.com Bucket if justified by the amount of Earnings.
  3. Bonus Determination. Different Buckets receive different Bonuses; the Buckets with the highest ranked Qualified Affiliates have highest Bonuses. We will notify you on the Bonus Details page of the name of your Bucket and the amount of its corresponding Bonus.

    We determine the Bonus by calculating the increase of the percentage of the May Earnings against the March Earnings and comparing it against the increase to the other 19 (or 4, in the case of the first bucket) Qualified Affiliates in the Bucket. The Qualified Affiliate in each Bucket with the largest increase receives the Bonus. By way of illustration, a Qualified Affiliate with March Earnings of $500 and May Earnings of $750 (i.e., a 50% increase) would rank higher than a Qualified Affiliate in the same Bucket whose March Earnings of $750 and May Earnings of $1,050 (i.e., a 40% increase).
  4. Date of Bonus. The Bonus will be paid by June 30, 2009.
  5. Employees Not Eligible. Employees, and their immediate family members, agents and contractors (other than advertising affiliates) of Various, Inc., and its affiliated entities are not eligible to receive the Bonus.
  6. Compliance with Affiliate Network Agreement. To receive the Bonus, you must be in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Various’ Affiliate Network Agreement.
  7. Collusion. Qualified Affiliates acting in collusion with each other to increase their Earnings percentage will be disqualified from receiving the Bonus.
