• provide ongoing support and active encouragement to other Members, both within and outside of my own organisation;
• honour my obligation to protect Isagenix's confidential information, including the contact information of other Members; and
• abide by all of the Isagenix Policies and Procedures, as currently in effect and as may be amended by Isagenix from time to time.

1.2       As an Isagenix Independent Associate, I will NOT:

• engage in any activity that would reflect poorly on Isagenix or me, including but not limited to any deceptive, misrepresentative, unlawful, or unethical business or recruiting practice, using any high-pressure recruiting or selling technique, or making any unlawful, unauthorised or exaggerated claim about Isagenix products or the Isagenix income opportunity;

• attempt to manipulate the Isagenix Compensation Plan in any way, including but not limited to enrolling any person as a Customer or Associate who has little or no interest in Isagenix, primarily to qualify for a bonus or other compensation, or by enrolling or encouraging others to enrol with multiple Positions and/or selling Isagenix products through unauthorised channels; or
• attempt in any way, directly or indirectly, to violate or circumvent the Isagenix Policies and Procedures and other Agreements and policies that apply to me.

Section 2. Your Relationship with Isagenix

As used in these Policies and Procedures, the terms “you”, “your”, and “Associate” refer to Isagenix Independent Associates, individually or collectively, depending on the context.

2.1 Becoming an Isagenix Independent Associate. To be eligible to become an Isagenix Independent Associate, you must: (a) be legally competent and of legal age (at least 18 years old or age of majority) to enter into a binding contract in the jurisdiction in which you reside; (b) be a citizen or taxpaying resident of, with a legal right to work and earn compensation in, a country in which Isagenix is officially open for business; (c) submit a complete, legible, unaltered, and valid Isagenix Independent Associate Application and Agreement (“IAAA”), that includes valid and accurate personal contact information; (d) review and, as appropriate, complete all required materials and documents, including the Isagenix Privacy Policy as found on Isagenix.com, the Isagenix Policies & Procedures (“Policy” or “Policies”), the Isagenix Team Compensation Plan (“Compensation Plan”), and the Isagenix Earnings Disclosure Statement, and review and complete any training materials and/or programs as may be required by Isagenix; (e) pay a Membership Fee or purchase an Associate Support System, as applicable; (f) as applicable, provide a valid personal tax identification number (TIN) to Isagenix; and (g) not currently hold or previously held any interest in an Isagenix Position (directly or indirectly through a family member, business entity or otherwise) unless you have met the reenrolment criteria in Section 3.5. (See Section 3.5 for additional information and restrictions.) Isagenix will not be responsible for any delay, loss or forfeiture of any payments held pending completion of the application and enrolment process or receipt of required information or a valid TIN. By becoming an Associate, and each time you receive and accept a commission or bonus payment, you agree to abide by the then most current terms and conditions of the IAAA, the Policies, the Compensation Plan, the applicable Isagenix Guidance Documents, and other applicable policies, agreements or obligations.

Isagenix Customers may apply to become an Associate at any time in order to participate in the Compensation Plan. These persons remain eligible to purchase Isagenix products at the prices dictated by the Customer Membership Type elected upon enrolling as a Customer. In addition, the person may retain his/her current Position so long as he/she makes the election within 24 months after becoming a Customer. If a Customer elects to become an Associate after 24 months, he/she may enrol at the bottom of his/her current leg with his/her current Enrolling Sponsor. Upon becoming an Associate, the person will then be eligible to receive compensation under the Compensation Plan.

Associates who choose not to create a Customer Membership Account will pay a Membership application fee that is charged annually and may purchase Isagenix products directly from Isagenix at the same prices as Preferred Customers.

2.2 Accurate Information. You may not enrol or help anyone else enrol with false, inaccurate, fabricated, misleading, or incomplete information. It is your responsibility to inform Isagenix of any changes to your contact or other personal information. Isagenix will not be responsible for delays and possible loss or forfeiture of Compensation that would otherwise be payable to individuals who have provided false, inaccurate, fabricated, misleading, or incomplete information.  Isagenix may request a 100 point identify verification check for any account, at a standard determined by state laws. Isagenix reserves the right to void or delay any enrolment, including voiding pending orders and payments, pending validation of account information. Isagenix may terminate any Position that is being operated by any person other than the person(s) named on the IAAA or related Isagenix account.

2.3 No More than One Position.  You may not have a financial interest or any other interest in more than one Position, including participation in the building of or ordering products through such Position, even when that Position is held by a separate business entity or another person, except in limited circumstances (such as Re-Entry Positions) as officially designated and approved in writing by Isagenix. If you are found working or assisting to work a Position in someone else’s name, such Positions may be terminated and the waiting periods in Section 3.5 will apply from the Position’s most recent activity.

2.4 Spouses.  Spouses may hold separate Positions, provided that they are in the same Line of Sponsorship and one spouse directly sponsors the other (except in cases where each spouse owned a Position prior to being married). Each spouse agrees that the actions of one spouse may be attributed to the other spouse and may result in corrective action against both spouses.

2.5 Re-Entry Positions.  Executives who meet the qualifications set forth in the Request for Re-Entry Position form may request one or more additional Positions, known as a Re-Entry Position. Because the grant of a Re-Entry Position is a privilege, Isagenix may impose additional requirements or withhold approval of any such request, and may terminate any Re-Entry Position at any time at its sole discretion. Isagenix also may amend or discontinue the Re-Entry Program at any time at its sole discretion. (Please refer to the Compensation Plan, Request for Re-Entry Position, and The Platinum Handbook for additional details and information.)

2.6 Other Special Programs. From time to time, Isagenix may implement other special programs where Associates who meet the necessary qualifications can apply to operate additional Positions. Isagenix may refuse approval and/or amend or discontinue these programs at any time at its sole discretion.

2.7 Business Entities and Trusts.  After your enrolment as an Associate, you may request to operate your Position as:

(a) a business of which you are the authorised representative and such entity is in good standing in the state, province or country of incorporation; or

(b) a trust that is established in accordance with Isagenix requirements.

You may make such requests by providing a written request to Isagenix. The request must include: (1) a valid Australian Business Number (“ABN”) or New Zealand Business Number (“NZBN”), (2) your own valid government-issued identification; and (3) any information requested by Isagenix to verify the existence, ownership, and good standing of the business or trust and your authority to bind the entity to the satisfaction of Isagenix. Even if you successfully add an entity to your account, ultimate ownership of and responsibility for the account will remain with you.  Isagenix may refuse any request or application or terminate any trust or entity account at its sole discretion.

Note:  Your personal identification is used for internal tracking purposes, but once an ABN or NZBN is provided, reporting for tax purposes will be directed to that number. You may not use this provision to circumvent any condition of eligibility, including without limitation Section 2.3 prohibiting more than one Position per person and the reenrolment provisions of Section 3.5.

2.8 Independent Contractor. Isagenix Independent Associates, in whatever form, are independent contractors. You acknowledge and agree that you are not an agent, employee, legal representative or franchisee of Isagenix, your Sponsor(s), or any other Independent Associate. You further understand and agree that you will not be treated as an employee for federal or state tax purposes, and will not be treated as an employee for purposes of the any state or federal unemployment laws, employment security laws, or workers compensation laws. You understand and agree that you are responsible for and will pay all federal and state taxes, including income taxes, self-employment taxes, sales taxes, local taxes, and/or local license fees that apply to your activities and compensation received under the Associate Contract. As a self-employed independent contractor, you will be operating your own independent business, buying and selling products and services available through and by Isagenix on your own accord. You have complete freedom in determining the number of hours you will devote to your business, and you have the sole discretion of scheduling such hours. Isagenix will not provide you with a place of business, and if you desire a place of business other than your own residence, you will be responsible for procuring, furnishing, equipping, and paying for such place of business. As a self-employed independent contractor, you are also responsible for complying with any applicable federal, state, provincial, or local business licensing requirements.

2.9 Annual Renewal. You must renew your IAAA annually by paying the applicable renewal fee, plus taxes, by the anniversary date of your enrolment (renewal date). If you fail to renew by the renewal date, whether intentionally or not, you may forfeit your Position, compensation and other benefits associated with your membership. Automatic Renewal Charge: As a convenience, if you place an order with your personal credit card within ninety (90) days before your renewal date, Isagenix will automatically renew your IAAA by charging the applicable renewal fee (plus tax) to the same credit card, provided it is your current method of payment on file at the time the fee is charged. Renewal fees will be charged approximately 5-7 days prior to your renewal date. If you do not wish to participate in this automatic renewal, you may opt out by contacting Customer Care at [email protected]. (Fees are subject to change upon prior notice to you. You will have the opportunity to terminate your IAAA before any such fee change takes effect.)

2.10 Becoming an International Sponsor. If you wish to enrol Members outside your Home Region and earn compensation based on the sale of Isagenix products in those Regions, you must become an Associate with International Sponsorship by submitting a fully completed and executed International Sponsorship Application and Agreement (“ISAA”) and paying the applicable application fee, which must be paid upon submission and each year after. If you choose to become an Associate with International Sponsorship, you must abide by the ISAA, the Policies and Procedures, the IAAA, the Compensation Plan, and the local laws and regulations applicable to each country in which you operate.

Section 3. Understanding Your Isagenix Position

3.1 Placement of Your Isagenix Position. When you become an Associate, you will occupy a Position in your Enrolling Sponsor’s Team Placement Tree in accordance with the Compensation Plan. The person who enrolled you with Isagenix is your Enrolling Sponsor; the person who occupies the Position immediately above you is your Placement Sponsor (the Enrolling Sponsor and the Placement Sponsor may be the same person). Isagenix will generally recognise the Enrolling Sponsor and Placement Sponsor designated on your IAAA, but may redesignate either Sponsor in the event of a dispute. (Although Customers are also assigned Positions in the applicable Marketing Organisation for tracking purposes, they do not have any Retail Business Centres and are not eligible to earn commissions unless they become an Associate.)

3.2 Change of Sponsorship or Placement. To protect the integrity of the Compensation Plan and to discourage unethical cross-recruiting practices, Isagenix does not allow sponsorship or placement changes, except in very limited, unique and unusual circumstances. Any request to change sponsorship or placement must be made in writing and sent directly to Isagenix via email to [email protected]. The request initially will be reviewed by Sales and if it is found to warrant further action, will be sent to the Field Relations Board (“FRB”) for consideration. The request may be denied at Isagenix’s sole discretion.

3.3 Modifying or Selling Your Position. You may not modify or sell any Position without the prior express written approval of Isagenix that is dated and signed by an authorised officer of Isagenix. Isagenix may, at its sole discretion, approve or disapprove any modification you propose to make to your Position.  Before Isagenix will consider any changes you must submit a written statement outlining the proposed modification and the reasons for the modification. You may request to sell your Position if: (a) you have actively operated your Position as an Active Paid-As Executive for the six consecutive months immediately preceding your request; (b) you submit a written notice to Isagenix specifying the proposed terms and conditions of any proposed sale to a bona fide purchaser at least 30 days before you intend to consummate the sale; (c) you are not under any Compliance investigation or restriction; and (d) you provide all information, documentation and signatures as may be requested by Isagenix. Isagenix may approve or disapprove of any proposed sale, at its sole discretion, or may opt to purchase the Position from you on substantially the same terms and conditions specified in the notice.

Note: This Section also applies to any attempt to transfer an interest in an entity that holds a Position. Positions held by Customers may not be sold or assigned.

3.4 Voluntary Cancellation of Your Associate Contract. You may cancel your Associate Contract, including your Position, (a) at any time by signing and submitting a written request to Isagenix, (b) by failing or choosing not to pay your annual renewal fee when it is due, or (c) by failing or choosing not to engage in any Business Building Activity for six consecutive months or longer. Once your Associate Contract/Position has been cancelled, you may not reenrol or have a financial interest in another Position except in accordance with the reenrolment policy as provided in Section 3.5. If you desire to voluntarily cancel your Associate Contract/Position and intend to reenrol, you must sign and submit a “Voluntary Request to Relinquish Position With Intent to Re-Enrol” form (sometimes referred to as the “Reenrolment Request Form”). Written requests for cancellation are considered effective when a valid request is received by Isagenix. Cancellation notices may be sent to [email protected].. Isagenix may, at its sole discretion, elect not to renew your Associate Contract. Isagenix will notify you of its intent not to renew on or before the anniversary of your enrolment.

3.5 Reenrolling After Cancellation; Eligibility. To protect the integrity of each Isagenix Position by discouraging individuals from attempting to switch Marketing Organisations, no person who currently holds or has held an interest in a terminated or cancelled Position may reenrol until expiration of the period specified in this Section, except as provided below.

(Note: Anyone found trying to circumvent this policy in any way, including by attempting to enrol with another Isagenix Marketing Organisation by using a business entity or a different name or by cooperating with another person or working a business for another person, will be subject to corrective action, up to and including the “resetting” of his or her waiting period, the denial of reenrolment requests and/or the termination of his or her Associate Contract, including any and all Position(s). Anyone who is aware of or complicit in efforts to violate or circumvent this policy is subject to the same corrective action.)

The waiting periods contained in this policy do not apply if you wish to reenrol with your same Enrolling Sponsor and be placed in the next open Position below your Placement Sponsor’s Position in the same sponsoring leg or if an existing Customer is converting to Associate in the same Position. Individuals who reenrol under this exception will maintain their previous Achieved Rank for recognition purposes and their reenrolment will not count as a new enrolment for any purpose, including Compensation, advancements, and promotions. If you wish to reenrol with a different Enrolling Sponsor or be placed in a different sponsoring leg, you may apply to reenrol subject to the following rules and waiting periods:

• Customers may reapply six months from the date of their most recent activity (such as placing a product order or providing a new Customer referral). 
• Gratuitous enrolments, including enrolments of individuals who have little or no interest in Isagenix, other than enrolling as a favor to someone, such as a friend or family member, or in exchange for some other benefit, such as free products or some other form of compensation. 
• Uninformed enrolments, including enrolments of individuals who were not aware of their enrolment, who claim to be involved with Isagenix but who have little or no knowledge about what is going on in their business (indicating that their business is actually being managed by someone else), or individuals who wished to be Customers only and were enrolled as Associates.
• Stacking of enrolments, indicating a coordinated effort where one person or a small group of people strategically place enrolments in a way that benefits, or is intended to benefit, one person or a few people at the expense or to the detriment of others, including the manipulation of IAAA’s for the purpose of increasing commissions or bonus payouts or qualifying for Rank Advancements under the Compensation Plan. 
• Multiple Associates or Customers using the same method of payment, the same shipping address, the same email address, the same phone number, and other activities that may indicate manipulation or attempted manipulation.
• Associates who have never earned a commission or who have earned less than $500 USD total from Isagenix over the twelve month period immediately preceding the reapplication date may reapply six months after the date of their most recent activity (such as placing a product order, enrolling a new Member, or receiving a Compensation payment).
• Associates who have earned Compensation totaling more than $500 USD with Isagenix over the twelve month period immediately preceding the reapplication date may reapply twelve months from the date of their most recent activity (such as placing a product order, enrolling a new Member, or receiving a Compensation payment).

 If you wish to continue ordering Isagenix products at discounted prices during your waiting period, without resetting your waiting period each time you order, you must sign and submit a Voluntary Request to Relinquish My Account Form. By submitting this form, you irrevocably waive and forfeit all rights relating to your current Position(s) (including all Compensation and Ranks). You must explain your reasons for making the request and where you intend to enrol after the waiting period expires. For purposes of this exception, your applicable waiting period will start on the date Isagenix receives your completed form, even if your Position has already been inactive for any amount of time.  Your intent to cancel and reenrol will be communicated to your current Enrolling Sponsor and volume from your purchases will continue to be credited to your current Enrolling Sponsor until the date your reenrolment takes effect.

Despite this Section 3.5, as an Associate, you may not encourage anyone who is already enrolled in Isagenix, whether as a Customer or Associate, to cancel his or her Position or move to another Marketing Organisation, even if you tell him or her to do so in accordance with this policy, and even if you had previously enrolled that person. Isagenix generally will investigate patterns of reenrolments and reenrolment requests suggestive of violations of this policy. Isagenix may, at its sole discretion, refuse any reenrolment request for any reason, even if the applicant has complied with the specified waiting periods and taken all other steps necessary for reenrolment.

Note: Although Isagenix permits spouses to hold separate Positions, they must remain in the same Line of Sponsorship. Therefore, before either spouse can reenrol, both spouses must satisfy the conditions and waiting periods applicable to their respective Positions.

3.6 Divorce. Isagenix will honour a valid divorce decree or settlement agreement with respect to ownership of Positions, provided that the divorce decree, settlement agreement, or other resolution (collectively “Resolution”) does not conflict with the Policies, the Compensation Plan, Guidance Documents, or the Terms and Conditions of the IAAA. Additionally, the rights pertaining to a single Position cannot be divided so as to provide some rights in the Position to one individual and other rights to another; and any Resolution that purports to so divide or separate the Position will cause the Position to automatically terminate as of the date of any such Resolution.

3.7 Succession. Upon the death or legal incapacitation of an Associate, all rights to the Associate’s Position may be transferred to a successor as provided in the Associate's will, trust or other testamentary document or as otherwise ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or other testamentary process, subject to approval by Isagenix. Within six months after an Associate's death or incapacitation, the successor(s) must present legitimate verification of death or incapacitation and proof of their right of succession, such as a grant of probate or an enduring power of attorney. The successor must sign and submit a new IAAA and must, in all respects, qualify to enrol as an Associate and be bound by all current and future terms and conditions set forth in the IAAA, the Policies, Guidance Documents, and Compensation Plan. If the successor is already a Member who holds a Position, Isagenix generally will allow the successor to hold both the successor’s original Position and the inherited Position for up to nine months, provided that the successor has appropriately requested to sell or otherwise transfer one of the Positions and such sale or transfer has taken place prior to the expiration of the nine month period. Isagenix may impose additional restrictions and requirements, including maintenance of certain Paid-As Ranks, at its discretion.

If Isagenix determines, at its discretion, that there is no appropriate or qualified successor to provide responsible leadership and support to the deceased or incapacitated Associate’s Marketing Organisation, Isagenix may, at its sole discretion, purchase the Position at a fair market value determined by Isagenix. If the successor(s) refuses the purchase request, Isagenix may terminate the Position without remuneration or further obligation.

Note: The requirement to sell or otherwise transfer one of the Positions after nine months does not apply if the successor is the spouse of the deceased Associate. If the Position is to be inherited by more than one successor, the successors should form a single-purpose business entity or a trust to hold the transferred Position and must follow all Isagenix instructions concerning its relationship with Isagenix, including designating one person as the contact person and person responsible for the Position. This policy may not be used to circumvent Section 2.3.

Section 4. Isagenix Products

4.1 Purchasing Isagenix Products.  No person is required to enrol as an Associate to purchase Isagenix products. Isagenix may adjust the prices of its products or services at any time. Although Associates may be required to achieve certain levels of personal sales (which may include retail sales) to earn compensation, Associates are not required to purchase any Isagenix products or participate in the Autoship program to become or remain an Associate. Please refer to the Compensation Plan for additional details.

4.2 No Inventory Loading. The Isagenix Compensation Plan is based on sales of Isagenix products to End Consumers. Associates may purchase only that amount of product that will be consumed by the Associate (and the Associate’s Immediate Household) or promptly sold to End Consumers. Customers may purchase products only for the Customer’s personal use or the personal use of their Immediate Household, and not for resale. Isagenix prohibits any scheme to purchase products or to enrol new Customers or Associates, either directly or through others, for the primary purpose of qualifying any Position for any commission, bonus, Rank advancement, special promotion, contest, or other incentive.

4.3 Payments and Payment Authorisation. All orders must be accompanied by proper payment, including all applicable shipping and handling fees and sales taxes.  If payment is not made within a timely manner or is reversed or cancelled, you authorise Isagenix to withhold the amount owed from any future Compensation payments.

4.4 Autoship Program.   As a convenience, Members may enrol in our optional Autoship program, depending on market availability, so that Members can automatically receive Isagenix products on a recurring schedule approximately every 30 days without the need for physically placing an order. Please refer to the Customer Membership Account Application and Agreement for additional details. We may encourage Associates to participate in the Autoship program to receive best pricing, but Associates are not required to join the Autoship program in order to participate in the Compensation Plan or business promotions.

4.5 Resale of Products.  You must be an Associate to purchase Isagenix products for resale. However, no Associate (or Customer) may sell, offer, or otherwise provide Isagenix products to third parties for the purpose of resale through the Internet or other electronic commerce channels. Nor may any Associate sell or offer to a third party any quantity of Isagenix products greater than that generally purchased by an individual for personal use or for the use of the person’s Immediate Household without prior express written consent of Isagenix Field Relations Board. Associates may not (directly or indirectly through any intermediary or instrumentality) offer, display or sell, or facilitate the offering, displaying or selling of Isagenix’s products on a retail basis in any manner (including online auctions websites, such as eBay or Amazon, e-commerce websites, retail websites, social media sites or apps, infomercials, and television), except as follows: (1) through an Isagenix-provided Associate website; (2) in service-related and by-appointment businesses, where the primary source of income is from such services and not from product sales (for example, in salons, spas, offices, health clubs, and weight loss clinics); and (3) through any special program initiated and expressly approved by Isagenix. When marketing Isagenix products, you may use only Isagenix-produced or Isagenix-approved literature, banners, and signs. Isagenix also strictly prohibits the sale of Isagenix products in any jurisdiction where sales are not permitted or where Isagenix is not officially open for business. These obligations and prohibitions continue even after any termination or cancellation of your relationship with Isagenix.

If you sell any Isagenix products through auction sales, on online auction sites, or through any other unauthorised website or channel, in addition to any other remedies hereunder or available by law, you agree to pay Isagenix $500.00 USD for each unit of Isagenix product in each instance of a prohibited, unauthorised, and/or noncompliant sale. You acknowledge and agree that a breach of such obligations will cause irreparable harm and damage to Isagenix and expressly waive any defence to Isagenix’s claim to such liquidated damages on the basis that actual damages are unascertainable or that such liquidated damages do not represent a reasonable determination of damages or penalties.

If you know, or reasonably should have known, that products were sold to a third party for the purposes of resale through unauthorised channels, in addition to any other remedies hereunder or available by law, you agree to pay Isagenix $500.00 USD for each unit of Isagenix product in each instance of a prohibited, unauthorised, and/or noncompliant sale. You acknowledge and agree that a breach of such obligations will cause irreparable harm and damage to Isagenix and expressly waive any defence to Isagenix’s claim to such liquidated damages on the basis that actual damages are unascertainable or that such liquidated damages do not represent a reasonable determination of damages or penalties.

4.6 Sales Tax. Collection of sales taxes may be required on product sales. Isagenix has voluntarily registered in many states to collect state sales taxes on behalf of Associates and, thus, reduce Associates’ compliance requirements. Accordingly, we will collect and remit sales taxes on the behalf of Associates, according to applicable tax rates in the jurisdiction where a product will be shipped. The tax collected is typically calculated as follows: (a) Associate and Customer orders for personal use will be taxed on the Wholesale Price; (b) Associate orders for resale will be taxed on the suggested retail price; (c) Retail Customer orders will be taxed on the actual sales price; and (d) for all orders, the price subject to sales tax will include the shipping charge if the jurisdiction where the products are shipped requires sales tax be charged on this cost. As an independent contractor, you are responsible for declaring and paying all applicable taxes.

If an Associate has submitted, and Isagenix has accepted, a current Sales Tax Exemption Certificate and Sales Tax Registration License, sales taxes will not be added to the invoice and the responsibility of collecting and remitting sales taxes to the appropriate authorities shall be on the Associate. Exemption from the payment of sales tax is applicable only to orders which are shipped to a jurisdiction for which the proper tax exemption papers have been filed and accepted. Applicable sales taxes will be charged on orders that are drop-shipped to another state. Any sales tax exemption accepted by Isagenix is not retroactive.

You agree to indemnify Isagenix and hold Isagenix harmless for any liability that it may incur as a result of your failure to properly declare whether certain product sales are for personal or retail use, or any failure on your part to properly declare or pay applicable taxes.

4.7 Product Satisfaction Guarantee.  Isagenix offers a limited 30-day product satisfaction guarantee as set forth in the Isagenix Return and Refund Policy. Please note that when you, as an Independent Associate, sell, deliver or transfer products in person, you are responsible for your customer’s satisfaction. If these personal customers are dissatisfied with a product, they must go through you for a replacement product or refund. Once you make the product exchange or refund in accordance with policy, you may obtain a replacement product from Isagenix for the returned product. Terms and conditions apply. Please refer to the Isagenix Return and Refund Policy (which may be found at Isagenix.com), which is incorporated herein by reference, for details and instructions. You may contact Customer Care at 1300-651-979 (AU) or 0800 451 291 (NZ) or [email protected] during normal business hours with any questions. When product is returned to Isagenix, commissions and bonuses paid to Associates from the sale of that product will be charged back and deducted from future payments to those Associates who originally received the commissions and bonuses.

4.8 Cancellation Buy-Back Policy. To protect Associates who decide to cancel their Associate Account and who have accumulated more Isagenix products than they can sell or use within a reasonable time, Isagenix will buy back, on reasonably commercial terms currently marketable inventory purchased by that Associate within the 12 months prior to the date of cancellation, subject to the terms and conditions of the Buy-Back Policy.   Additional limitations and conditions apply. Please refer to the Isagenix Buy Back Policy for details. You must contact us by email at [email protected] or call the Customer Care Department at 1300-651-979 (AU) or 0800 451 291 (NZ) for more information. When product is returned to Isagenix, commissions and bonuses paid to Associates from the sale of that product will be charged back and deducted from future payments to those Associates who originally received the commissions and bonuses. Isagenix will conform to the most current buy-back policy and requirements of each jurisdiction.

Section 5. Protecting Your Business

5.1 Out-of-Market Sales. Isagenix offers an International Sponsorship programe in which you may benefit from sales of Isagenix products outside of your Home Region. However, you may not sell Isagenix products or promote the Isagenix opportunity in countries or territories that have not been officially opened by Isagenix.  You also may not sell or promote Isagenix products or literature designed for one jurisdiction, country, or territory in a different jurisdiction, country, or territory. Any violation of this provision could seriously jeopardise or compromise the ability of Isagenix to obtain governmental approval to conduct business in countries where approval is pending or planned. Accordingly, if you violate this or any other applicable policy or the laws of any country, territory, or jurisdiction, whether such violation is direct or indirect, intentional or unintentional, you are subject to corrective action, including without limitation, fines, prohibitions of conducting business in such jurisdictions, and/or the termination of your Position, as deemed appropriate by Isagenix at its sole discretion.

5.2 Confidential Information. To assist you in building an Isagenix business, and in reliance on your agreement to the terms of this Section, Isagenix may supply you with, or grant you access to, certain reports and other confidential and/or proprietary information that belongs to Isagenix.  This information includes, but is not limited to, marketing plans and strategies, products, purchases, pricing, relationships with vendors and suppliers, and the identities of and contact information for Isagenix Associates and Customers provided to you in any document or report, and the identities of and contact information for Associates and Customers with whom you first became acquainted as a result of your relationship with Isagenix, whether or not they are in your Marketing Organisation (collectively, "Confidential Information").

To protect your business and the businesses of all Associates, you acknowledge and agree that the Confidential Information belongs to Isagenix and must be kept completely confidential for as long as such information is deemed by Isagenix to be confidential. You agree that you will not, directly or indirectly through a third party, use or disclose any Confidential Information for any purpose unrelated to your Isagenix business, whether during the term of your association with Isagenix or thereafter. You acknowledge that the Confidential Information is of such character as to render it unique and that disclosure or use thereof in breach of this policy will result in irreparable damage to Isagenix and its Associates. You recognise and agree that misuse of the Confidential Information cannot be fully compensated through monetary damages. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that Isagenix and its Associates will be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breach of this Section. If any action is taken to enforce this provision or to obtain injunctive relief or recover damages, the prevailing party shall be awarded its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees. You understand and agree that in addition to Isagenix, other Associates may be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief and other damages if you violate this provision. You understand and agree that the confidentiality obligations and related remedies will survive the termination or cancellation of your relationship with Isagenix.

5.3 Non-Solicitation. As an Associate, you are an independent contractor and therefore are not prohibited from participating in other business ventures, even when those business ventures compete directly with Isagenix. However, to protect the integrity of the Isagenix business and to support and protect your business interests and those of other Associates, during the term of your relationship with Isagenix and for one year thereafter (collectively, the "Non-Solicitation Period"), you agree that you will not solicit or encourage, directly or indirectly, any Associate or Customer to join or work with another network marketing, multi-level marketing, or direct selling company. You further agree that, except as otherwise authorised by Isagenix, during the Non-Solicitation Period, you will not introduce, promote, or sell other business ventures, goods, or services to any Associate or Customer.

If you violate this Non-Solicitation provision, the Non-Solicitation Period will be extended by one year from the date of your last solicitation of any Associate or Customer. A solicitation includes any direct or indirect attempt to entice or encourage an Associate or Customer to consider joining or working with or for another network marketing, multi-level marketing, or direct selling company. A solicitation may include communicating information (including through online and social media postings) about another business venture to any Associate or Customer, to the extent a reasonable person would interpret your communication as an attempt to solicit his or her interest in that business venture. For additional information, please consult the applicable Guidance Documents which can be obtained in your ABO or contact Isagenix Compliance at [email protected].

Violation of this provision is grounds for termination of your Position and may also give rise to other claims for unauthorised use of Confidential Information. You acknowledge that a breach of this policy will result in irreparable damage to Isagenix and its Associates. You recognise and agree that violations of this policy cannot be fully compensated through monetary damages. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that Isagenix and its Associates will be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breach of this policy. If any action is taken to enforce this policy or to obtain injunctive relief or recover damages, the prevailing party shall be awarded of its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees. You understand and agree that in addition to Isagenix, other Associates may be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief and other damages if you violate this provision. You understand and agree that the non-solicitation obligations and related remedies will survive the termination or cancellation of your relationship with Isagenix.

5.4 Changing Marketing Organisations. To protect the integrity of the Compensation Plan, and  to protect the  business interests of each Marketing Organisation in Isagenix, no Associate or Customer, whether current or former, may move to a different Marketing Organisation or change his or her Enrolling Sponsor, except as expressly provided otherwise by these Policies. Specifically, if you wish to resign and later reenrol with a different Enrolling Sponsor or be placed in a different Marketing Organisation, you may apply to reenrol after the appropriate waiting period has passed, as set forth in Section 3.5. Isagenix may deny reenrolment at its sole discretion.

Any attempt to circumvent this policy, including any attempt to conceal an improper reenrolment (for example, by enrolling under someone else's name or a business entity, submitting false information to Isagenix, or working a business for someone else), is grounds for corrective action against all who had knowledge of or involvement in the improper activity, up to and including monetary fines and termination of their Position(s).

It is also a violation of your Associate Contract to solicit or encourage any Associate or Customer to change Marketing Organisations. There are various ways this can happen such as direct solicitation or discrediting another Associate in order to encourage someone to resign and reenrol with another Marketing Organisation. Soliciting or encouraging another Associate or Customer to change Marketing Organisations may be deemed a violation of this Section even if such Associate or Customer waits out the appropriate amount of time under Section 3.5.

5.5 Anti-Manipulation. Isagenix encourages Associates to do their best to fairly and honourably maximise their opportunity to earn compensation under the Compensation Plan in a legal and ethical manner. To help foster and maintain fairness and a level playing field for all Associates, any attempt to manipulate the Compensation Plan is strictly prohibited and is grounds for immediate corrective action, up to and including monetary fines and termination of the involved Position(s). Evidence of manipulation may include, but is not limited to the following:

• Fictitious enrolments, including enrolments using false or incomplete contact information or identification, or information that cannot be verified using reasonable efforts. To obtain credit for an enrolment, the Enrolling Sponsor must ensure that his or her enrollee provides genuine and accurate information to Isagenix. 

The Compensation Plan is designed to offer an income opportunity and other benefits to those who, among other things, devote the requisite time and effort in pursuing this opportunity. The Policies are designed to help protect those efforts and we encourage you to report any suspected manipulative activities to the Compliance Department at [email protected].

5.6 Income Claims. You understand and agree that you will not misrepresent the actual or potential income that may be earned under the Compensation Plan. Any representation about earnings must be based on documented facts, placed in the appropriate context, and accompanied by the appropriate disclosures, including the Income Disclaimers and the Isagenix Earnings Disclosure Statement, both of which can be obtained in your ABO (Associate Back Office) or at IsagenixEarnings.com or ANZ,IsagenixCompliance.com. It is your responsibility to include all relevant information to ensure that any representation you make is truthful and not misleading.

5.7 Product and Weight Loss Claims. When describing Isagenix products and personal experiences with Isagenix, including the use of testimonials (by you or other Members), you understand and agree that you will only describe Isagenix products and product experiences in a manner that is consistent with the product and weight loss claims contained in official Isagenix marketing materials or as otherwise approved in advance in writing by Isagenix. When making any product claim or weight loss claim, you agree to accompany the claim with any appropriate disclaimers, copies of which can be obtained in your ABO or at ANZ.IsagenixCompliance.com. It is your responsibility to disclose all relevant information to ensure that any representation you make is truthful and not misleading. You understand and agree that you will not represent that any Isagenix product is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any diseases or health conditions, unless otherwise approved in Official Isagenix Marketing Materials.

5.8 Military Base Restrictions. Associates in the military must comply with military regulations in establishing and operating their Isagenix business. We recommend that military personnel request and obtain permission from their base commander before starting an Isagenix business. Associates may be required to satisfy the base commander that (a) sales of products won’t compete with or materially affect sales by the Post Exchange, and (b) enrolment activities would not violate regulations against engaging in commercial solicitation with military personnel of junior rank. If an Associate is transferred to a military base in a foreign country, the same considerations apply to the operation of his or her business there, provided that business activities are confined to the base itself.

5.9 MEDIA AWARENESS POLICY Media Interviews and Inquiries.To protect the Isagenix brand and to ensure a consistent and compliant message, Isagenix has determined it is in the best interest of all Associates and Customers if designated company spokespersons handle all communications with the media. Accordingly, Isagenix Independent Associates and Customers are not permitted to contact, solicit, respond to, interview with, or otherwise communicate with the media about Isagenix, its products, compensation plan, their Isagenix experience, or anything else relating to Isagenix, even if they do not mention Isagenix by name, unless they receive prior written consent from Isagenix. It is a violation of this policy to provide any information to the media without prior written approval from Isagenix, regardless of whether the information is positive or negative, accurate or inaccurate. In addition, if a media interview is approved by Isagenix, proper media training may be provided to ensure the accurate and successful representation of the company. “Media” is defined broadly to include all traditional news outlets, television and radio shows and print media, as well as all Internet-based journalistic communications, which may include blogs, forums and bulletin boards relating to journalistic news or similar outlets. All inquiries from the media must be referred to Isagenix at 1-877-877-8111 or [email protected].

5.10 Non-Solicitation of Isagenix Employees. To protect against conflicts of interest, to help ensure a level playing field for all Associates, and to protect the Company’s investment in developing highly skilled and marketable employees to support all Associates, Isagenix employees are prohibited from becoming Isagenix Associates and from working for Isagenix Associates in any capacity to assist with Isagenix related activities, while employed by Isagenix and for a period of one-year following termination of their employment with Isagenix, unless they receive prior written consent from Isagenix. Accordingly, as part of this Non-Solicitation Provision, you agree that you will not solicit or encourage, directly or indirectly, any Isagenix employee to leave his or her employment with Isagenix and you agree not to solicit, enrol, hire or otherwise work with any Isagenix employee during the term of his or her employment with Isagenix and for one-year thereafter, without the prior written consent of Isagenix.

Section 6. Trademarks, Advertising and Internet Usage

6.1 Isagenix Trademarks, Copyrighted Materials, and other Intellectual Property. Isagenix trademarks include the name Isagenix and all variations thereof, as well as the names of all Isagenix products and services and other marks as typically indicated by the use of the "'TM" or “®” symbols. Isagenix trademarks also may include various word combinations relating to Isagenix using the prefix "ISA" or the suffix "GENIX". All Isagenix marketing and sales materials, including audios, videos, websites, posts, print and digital presentations, handouts or books, or other tangible and intangible works of authorship are the copyrighted work of Isagenix.

An Associate may use Isagenix’s trademarks, copyrighted material, and other intellectual property only with Isagenix’s prior written permission, which may be expressed through general publication (to all Associates) or through a specific writing to one or more Associates. Without limitation, Isagenix may require conformity with specifications, may require that materials that use Isagenix’s trademarks and/or copyrighted materials be sourced from Isagenix or an Isagenix-approved supplier, and may otherwise condition use of its trademarks and copyrighted works. Any permission granted by Isagenix shall constitute a limited, non-exclusive, nontransferable and revocable license to use such trademarks and copyrighted works solely in connection with the Isagenix business. You agree to immediately transfer to Isagenix, upon Isagenix’s request, any Internet domain name or other registration or application containing an Isagenix trademark, including any word combinations using the prefix “ISA” or the suffix “GENIX”. This provision shall survive the termination of your relationship with Isagenix.

6.2 Advertising. Isagenix provides sales tools and other materials that you can use to promote Isagenix products and the income opportunity. Creation of your own materials is discouraged; however, you may use certain other materials, including self-created materials, if and only if you first submit the materials to Isagenix corporate offices for review and the materials have been properly approved. The materials shall not be used prior to receiving written approval from Isagenix corporate. Isagenix may refuse to approve any materials at its sole discretion. All materials you create must be truthful, accurate and not misleading. Any and all statements about the benefits of Isagenix products or about the Isagenix income opportunity must comply with all Policies and the laws and regulations in the jurisdiction where the materials are used.

6.3 Internet Usage and Social Media. You may use the Internet, including social media, to promote Isagenix products and your business provided you do so in a responsible manner. Isagenix provides useful tools and training materials to help you understand how to use the Internet to promote Isagenix in an effective and socially acceptable manner. You understand and agree that you will abide by all Policies and Guidance Documents relating to Internet usage, as may be amended by Isagenix from time to time, and you will not make any inaccurate, exaggerated, or misleading statements about Isagenix or its products or income opportunity in any media, including through the use of videos, pictures, or other means.

Note:  Please refer to the Supplement to the Policies and Procedures on Internet Advertising and Social Media found on ANZ.IsagenixCompliance.com for further guidance.

6.4 Repackaging and Relabeling Prohibited. Associates may not delete, add, modify, tamper with, repackage, relabel, refill, or alter the labels on any Isagenix products or literature in any way. Nor may Associates break out products from product bundles (such as a Premium Pack, sample pack) and sell such products individually. Isagenix products may only be sold in their original containers and packaging. Relabeling or repackaging violates your agreements with Isagenix and could violate laws that generally require persons, including Associates, to implement and adhere to specified quality controls and procedures relating to the repackaging or relabeling of Isagenix products. Violations of such laws could result in severe criminal penalties. Associates should also be aware that personal civil liability may arise when, as a consequence of the repackaging or relabeling of products, the person(s) using the product(s) suffers any type of injury or damage. Associates are also responsible for learning and adhering to the proper storing and handling instructions for Isagenix products.

Section 7. Enforcement of Policies

7.1 Remedies. To protect the integrity of the Isagenix culture and to help maintain a level playing field for all Associates, the Compliance Department helps educate Associates about the Policies and actively monitors Associates’ business building activities. If an Associate violates these Policies, including the Isagenix Code of Ethics, the IAAA, any Guidance Documents, or other agreements with Isagenix, or engages in any unethical, illegal, fraudulent, or deceptive conduct, or any other violation of any laws, statutes, or ordinances, we may, at our sole discretion, take one or more of the following actions:

• issue a written advisory;
• revoke recognition or invitation to an Isagenix event;
• suspend or revoke access to special privileges, including executive reports, access to the ABO, access to social media pages and groups, and other privileges;

• remove the Associate from participation in promotions, bonuses, incentive trips, contests and other non-Compensation Plan benefits;
• temporarily suspend or permanently terminate the Associate's Position(s) and all rights thereto;
• reassign all or part of the Associate's Marketing Organisation;
• seek compensatory and injunctive remedies, as applicable; and/or
• take any other action or corrective measures that Isagenix deems appropriate under the circumstances.

You understand and agree that Isagenix has the right to withhold payment of all commissions and bonuses during the period that Isagenix is investigating any alleged misconduct. If your Position is terminated due to a breach that occurred prior to the investigation, you will not be entitled to any commissions or bonuses withheld during the investigation period, unless otherwise required by law.

7.2 Field Relations Board. The Field Relations Board reviews disputes, decisions, and disciplinary actions relating to Associates and their Isagenix businesses. Review requests must be timely submitted to the Compliance Department at [email protected]. The review request must include all information and documents the Associate believes supports his/her case and that the Associate would like to have considered in the review. All decisions of the Field Relations Board are final.

Section 8. Amendments

Upon proper notification, Isagenix may, at its sole discretion, amend the IAAA Terms and Conditions, the Policies, the Compensation Plan, the Guidance Documents, and any other materials pertaining to your Isagenix business, including any other agreements entered into between you and Isagenix. You understand and agree that you will be bound by the most current versions of the IAAA Terms and Conditions, the Policies, the Compensation Plan, and the Guidance Documents, including any updates or revisions since the date of your enrolment, upon any of the following occurrences: (a) completing the enrolment process to become an Associate or Customer; (b) renewing your annual Membership; (c) each time you personally enrol a new Associate or  Customer; and (d) each time you accept commissions or other payments under the Compensation Plan.

You will be bound by any amendments upon notification of the amendments through any Isagenix official channels of communication effective fourteen days after the posting of such notice (except where a longer notice period is required by law, in which case such notice period applies). Those channels of communication include, but are not limited to, posting of information to the Isagenix website or Associate Back Office (“ABO”), e-mail to your IsaMail account or email address on file, announcements in any official Isagenix newsletter or other publication, or mailed to you at the address on file. If you find any update to the IAAA Terms and Conditions, the Policies, the Compensation Plan, the Guidance Documents and any other materials unacceptable, you may terminate your Position.

Section 9. General Provisions

9.1 Scope, Applicability and Interpretation. These Policies govern the relationship between Isagenix (Asia Pacific) Australia Pty. Ltd. and/or any of its affiliates ("Isagenix") with any Associate or entity that holds an Isagenix Position. These Policies are incorporated by reference into, and form part of, the IAAA. You understand and agree that Isagenix’s interpretations of the Policies are final and binding. Whenever used in the Associate Contract, including the Policies, the term “including” means “including without limitation”, unless expressly stated otherwise.

9.2 Compensation Plan and Guidance Documents Incorporated By Reference. The Compensation Plan and Guidance Documents, as may be amended from time to time, are incorporated by reference into these Policies and you agree to be bound by the Compensation Plan and the Guidance Documents, as the same may be amended by Isagenix from time to time.

9.3 Consent to Use of Personal Information. In addition to the terms and conditions of the IAAA, you are subject to the terms of the Isagenix Privacy Policy, which is incorporated as part of these Policies. The Isagenix Privacy Policy does not limit the provisions of applicable privacy laws.

9.4 Reporting and Resolving Errors.  If you have any questions or believe there has been an error regarding commissions, bonuses, reports, orders, or charges, you must notify Isagenix in writing within 30 days of the date of the purported error in question. Isagenix will not be responsible for errors, omissions or problems not so reported.

9.5 Waiver. Isagenix never waives its right to insist on compliance (a) with the Policies, the IAAA, the Guidance Documents, the Compensation Plan and other agreements between Associates and Isagenix and (b) with the applicable laws governing the conduct of a business and network marketing. This is true in all cases, both specifically expressed and implied, unless an officer of Isagenix who has actual and specific authority to bind Isagenix to such waivers explicitly states in writing that Isagenix waives any of these provisions. In addition, any time Isagenix approves a waiver of any provision, that approval is specific to the single occurrence, unless otherwise stated, and does not extend to any other violation, whether past, present, or future. This provision deals with the concept of "waiver", and the parties agree that Isagenix does not waive any of its rights under any circumstances short of the written confirmation alluded to above.

9.6 Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Isagenix, its officers, managers, directors, employees, beneficial owners, and agents (collectively “Isagenix Indemnitees”) against and from any claim, damage, loss, or liability, including judgments, civil penalties, refunds, attorneys’ fees, court or arbitration costs, or lost business Isagenix Indemnitees incur, arising from any of your actions or inactions that violate your Associate Contract, including without limitation, the IAAA Terms and Conditions, these Policies, the Compensation Plan and the Guidance Documents, each as may be amended.

You understand and agree that you are responsible for any verbal or written representations you make regarding Isagenix’s products and business opportunity, including the Compensation Plan, and you agree you will not make any unauthorised or unlawful representations, express or implied, verbal or non­verbal. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Isagenix Indemnitees against and from any and all liability including judgments, civil penalties, refunds, attorneys' fees, court, or arbitration costs or lost business we incur as a result of any unauthorised or unlawful representations that you make.

9.7 Exclusion of Damages. In no event shall any Isagenix officer, director, employee, affiliate, successor, or assignee be liable for any special, punitive, indirect, or consequential damages, for any claims or actions resulting from or arising out of these Policies or any other agreement you have entered into with Isagenix, the functionality or operation of any website, or any acts or omissions of any Isagenix party, whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other cause of action.

9.8 Severability and Judicial Modification.  If any portion of these Policies, or any other agreement you have entered into with Isagenix, is deemed by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, it is your and Isagenix’s mutual intent that the arbitrator or court shall strike or modify the applicable provision only to the extent necessary to make such provision enforceable, and enforce the provision as modified. In any event, the remainder of these Policies and all other agreements shall remain in full force and effect.

9.9 Survival of Terms. You understand and agree that each of the provisions of these Policies relating to confidentiality, non-solicitation, resale of products, including prohibitions of online sales, arbitration, and other provisions as expressly stated herein will survive the termination of your relationship with Isagenix.

ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATING TO, THESE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES, THE COMPENSATION PLAN, OR THE GUIDANCE DOCUMENTS, OR THE BREACH THEREOF, SHALL BE SETTLED BY CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE AUSTRALIAN CENTRE FOR INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION (AU) OR THE NEW ZEALAND INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION CENTRE (NZ) UNDER ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES, AND JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION THEREOF. IF YOU FILE A CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM AGAINST ISAGENIX OR ITS OWNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR EMPLOYEES, YOU MAY ONLY DO SO ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT WITH ANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL OR AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION. YOU WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY OR TO ANY COURT. All Australian arbitration proceedings shall be held in the city of Sydney, Australia and all New Zealand arbitration proceedingsshall be held in the city of Auckland, New Zealand.. At least one arbitrator shall be an attorney at law experienced in business law transactions and network marketing. Neither the parties nor the arbitrator(s) may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties. Judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Each party to the arbitration shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses, including legal and filing fees; provided, however, that the arbitrator will have discretion to award legal fees and other costs to the prevailing party. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive any termination or expiration of your relationship with Isagenix.

Nothing in the arbitration provision prohibits either party from obtaining a temporary injunction, preliminary injunction, permanent injunction or other equitable relief available to safeguard and protect the party’s interests prior to, during or following the filing of any arbitration or other proceeding, or pending the rendition of a decision or award in connection with an arbitration or other proceeding. The arbitrator(s) will have the authority to continue injunctive relief and to enter a permanent order granting such relief.

In addition, nothing in the arbitration provision shall prevent Isagenix from filing a lawsuit to identify unknown persons, including, but not limited to, unidentified Customers or Associates, who may be selling Isagenix products on the Internet, cybersquatting, registering or attempting to register, or using Isagenix trademarks or confusingly similar domain names, or producing, modifying or repackaging Isagenix merchandise without authorisation. Once a person is determined to be a Customer or Associate, Isagenix may take further action against such persons. The filing of a lawsuit and taking any action in that lawsuit to identify unknown persons shall not be a waiver of any right or obligation set forth in the arbitration provision.

In the event that a dispute or claim arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, is not subject to arbitration as set forth above, the laws of the state of New South Wales shall govern, and the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of that State.
