1. Application Procedure.

To become a member of our Affiliate Program you must complete the attached application. Note: You will not become a Provida Life Sciences affiliate until Provida Life Sciences has reviewed and approved your Affiliate Application. If accepted you will be notified by e-mail within 3 to 5 business days of submitting your application. Provida shall not be responsible for lost or misdirected applications. Provida Life Sciences reserves the right in its sole discretion to accept or reject any Affiliate Application for any reason or no reason.

2. Commission Schedule and Payment

a. All commissions will be paid by check within approximately 30 days after the end of each month for sales generated through your website during the previous month.
b. For each month that commissions are due you, Provida Life Sciences will calculate the amount of net sales generated through your website. "Net Sales" shall be defined as the actual price a customer pays for each item sold less, shipping and handling charges and less exchanges, returns, charge backs, or non-collectable sales.
c. Provida Life Sciences will use the following structure to determine your commission: Net sales will earn a 15% commission.
d. If your aggregate commissions do not exceed $100 USD in any month or series of months, Provida Life Sciences reserves the right to withhold payment until such time as your aggregate commissions exceed $100 USD.
e. If an item is returned, credit card is declined, or payment is not received from a customer for any reason after your commission for that item has been paid, Provida Life Sciences will subtract the commission for that item from the next commission payment due you following such return. If you earn no subsequent commission payments during the two months following such return, Provida Life Sciences will send you a bill for the amount of the commission for the returned item, which shall be immediately payable upon receipt.

3. Identifying Yourself as an Affiliate
