Participation in the KPFG Cash Back Platform

The KPFG Cash Back Platform is designed and intended to be a business-to-business platform to enhance the business and marketing relationship between Producers of goods and products, Distributors and Brokers, and retail and similarly-situated businesses and entities that ultimately use the goods and products, referred to as Operators. Producers, Distributors, Brokers, and Operators will each utilize and maintain an account in the KPFG Cash Back Platform, through which each may use the KPFG Cash Back Platform.

Producers

Producers will be responsible for determining and setting the particular terms and conditions loyalty rewards that will be made available to Operators. Each Producer will determine and set the type, kind, amount, etc., of rewards that an Operator, Broker Sales Representative (“BSR” or “Broker”) or Distributor Sales Representative (“DSR” or “Distributor”) may receive for a particular product or purchase of that Producer’s goods or products. For example, the loyalty rewards may be a one-time SPIFF, a per case rebate or a volume-based incentive.

Distributors and Brokers

Distributors and Brokers may use the KPFG Cash Back Platform to bring rewards opportunities to their Operator customers, including submitting information to Incent to assist their Operator customers in receiving rewards through the KPFG Cash Back Platform. Distributors and Brokers may also have the opportunity to earn rewards through selling Producers’ goods and products to Operators. Rewards offered to the Distributors and Brokers from Producers will be calculated based on the approved proof-of-purchase data obtained from their Operator customers. Only one Distributor and one Broker can receive rewards on a product or good. If two or more Distributors or two or more Brokers are claiming rights to the rewards for a particular good or product, Incent reserves the right to determine which Distributor and or which Broker will receive the rewards for a particular good or product. Only one Distributor Sales Rep and one Broker Sales Rep can receive rewards on all product or good purchases made by the Operator from Producers offering rewards through the Incent Program.

It is not the responsibility of Incent or its participating Producers to protect or create firewalls for Operator’s purchase information that might be considered competitive information between two or more Broker participants and two or more Distributor Participants. For instance, two different Broker Sales Reps from a single Broker Company or different Brokers Companies representing and selling a producer’s products or goods through two different Distributors carrying and selling the producer’s products. Further, Operator’s purchasing producer’s products and goods through two or more different Distributors carrying and selling the producer’s products. All Operator’s purchase data received and processed by Incent may be viewed by any participant of the KPFG Cash Back Platform that is connected to the respective Operator’s account that purchases products or goods from Producers.

Producers may set different reward values for each product or good offered through the KPFG Cash Back Platform by individual Operators, Distributors, Distributor Sales Reps, Brokers, Brokers Sales Reps or any other participant eligible for rewards through the KPFG Cash Back Platform.

Processing of Rewards.

Proper proof-of-purchase data must include the following information: The Distributor or supplier from which the product was purchased, manufacturer product codes, description of the product, quantity of the product purchased, the date or dates on which the Operator purchased the product. The Producer and or Incent may, from time to time, require additional proof-of-purchase information for a product or loyalty reward.

Incent and Producers reserve the right to not accept proof-of-purchase data at their own discretion for any member participant. If an Operator’s proof-of-purchase data is not accepted, the Operator will be notified of the rejection of the decision.

Cash back rewards will be paid out monthly for proper and complete proof-of-purchase data that the Operator submits by the fifth day of the month. If proof-of-purchase data is submitted after the fifth day of the month, payment will occur in the next month. Circumstances may occur that delay or change the normal schedule for rebate payouts or access to available funds.

Operators may elect to receive cash rewards either through a debit card or check. Other cash rewards disbursement methods requested by an Operator will be considered if the Operator isn’t allowed to receive cash rewards from a debit card or check. Incent reserves the right to approve or refuse any other disbursement method requested by the Operator. Broker Sales Reps and Distributor Sales Reps can only receive cash rewards, commissions or bonuses using the debit card method. Cash rewards, commissions and bonuses offered through the Incent program will be forfeited if the Broker Sales Rep’s or Distributor Sales Rep’s employer doesn’t allow them to accept these offers from third party companies (such as Incent or a Producer). In some situations, the Producer offering cash rewards, commissions or bonuses through the KPFG Cash Back Platform may elect to distribute these offerings directly to the Broker Company or Distributor Company versus directly to the Distributor Sales Rep or Broker Sales Rep. Upon Incent fulfilling this requested option by the Producer, Incent takes no responsibility for the use of the cash rewards, commissions or bonuses by the Broker Company or Distributor Company. Incent reserves the right to refuse the disbursement of cash rewards, commissions or bonuses directly to the Broker Company or Distributor Company requested by the Producer, Broker Company or Distributor Company.

Failure to provide an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 by the date requested by the Producer and/or Incent may also result in the forfeiture of earned reward. If the reward offerings through the Incent Program are issued to a Distributor Company that purchases the Producers products and goods, it is the Distributor Company’s responsibility to determine if the rewards are a taxable event according to the tax code rules set by the Internal Revenue Service. Incent does not take any responsibility for a Company or Individual breaking the tax laws and regulations set by the Internal Revenue Service from participating in the KPFG Cash Back Platform.
