Once
you are approved for our program, use the Required URL code we supply to
generate links from your site to ours. We may offer you a variety of links
and link types. Use your creativity and your knowledge of the people who
come to your site to choose the types of links that will be most appealing
and most likely to invite clicks. The more your links lead to sales on our
site, the more money your site will earn. You may choose to use one or many
of the links we provide, or you may create your own links. However, we will
need to authorize any links that you create independently.
Guidelines For Approval
We encourage all interested sites to apply to our program. However, before
you can participate in our program, we will need to approve your site if
you will be using one for sales. Mainly we look for sites that are aesthetically
pleasing and do not display content that may be deemed pornographic or offensive.
These are only general guidelines, and we reserve the right to make exceptions.
Please note that if you fail to meet the terms of our agreement we may remove
you at any time.

by me is correct. I agree to allow you to review my application, and, to
that purpose, I have electronically delivered to you my signature by hitting
the Submit Application button below. I understand that submission of this
information does not insure my acceptance into the affiliate program.
By submitting your application, you agree with the following:
This Master Agreement ("Agreement") is made between [Paradise Multimedia Inc. (owner and operator of 1stluau.com, OrderHawaiianFood.com and Coconutgreetings.com
("Merchant")] and [Your Company] ("Partner"). BACKGROUND Partner and Merchant
each desire to establish the general terms and conditions which shall govern
advertising and commission arrangements between Partner and Merchant which
result from their participation in Paradise Multimedia Inc. Affiliate Program.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS In consideration of the promises set forth below, we
agree as follows:
1. Partner's Responsibilities. 1.1. Partner will link its site to areas
within Merchant's site using special URLs specified in the Engagement (the
"Required URLs"). Partner may post as many links to the Required URLs and
the rest of Merchant's site as it likes on Partner's site. The position,
prominence and nature of links on the Partner's site shall comply with any
requirements specified in the Engagement, but otherwise will be in the discretion
of Partner. 1.2. Partner agrees not to make any representations, warranties
or other statements concerning Merchant, Merchant's site, any of Merchant's
products or services, or Merchant's site policies, except as expressly authorized
by the Engagement. 1.3. Partner is responsible for notifying Merchant of
any malfunctioning of the Required URLs or other problems with Partner's
participation in the Engagement. Merchant will respond promptly to all concerns
upon notification by Partner.
2.Commissions. 2.1. Merchant agrees to pay Partner the commission specified
in the Engagement if Merchant sells to a visitor to Merchant's site (a "Customer")
a product or service that is the subject of the Engagement and if that Customer
has accessed Merchant's site and purchased the product or service via a
Qualifying Link. Purchases may be entered by Partner through this link for
phone orders received by them. 2.2. A "Qualifying Link" is a link from Partner's
site to Merchant's using one of the Required URLs or any other URL provided
by Merchant for use in The Affiliate Program if it is the last link to the
Merchant's site that the Customer uses during a Session where a sale of
a product or a service to Customer occurs. A "Session" is the period of
time beginning from a Customer's initial contact with Merchant's site via
a link from the Partner's site and terminating when the Customer either
returns to the Merchant's site via a link from a site other than Partner's
site or the Engagement expires or is terminated. 2.3. Merchant shall have
the sole right and responsibility for processing all orders made by Customers.
Partner acknowledges that all agreements relating to sales to Customers
shall be between Merchant and the Customer. 2.4. All determinations of Qualifying
Links and whether a commission is payable will be made by Paradise Multimedia Inc. and will be final and binding on both Merchant and Partner. Prices
for the products will be set solely by Merchant in its discretion. Commissions
are for product and service sales only, not shipping charges. Orders that
are returned, rejected or mis-shipped by Merchant's freight service, will
be deemed void and no commissions will result. Regarding painted media provided
by CoconutGreetings.com or PaintedCoconut.com, orders that are returned,
rejected or mis-shipped by Merchant's freight service, will be deemed void
and no commissions will result. Orders that contain wrong information conveyed
by Partner (i.e. spelling errors, shipping address errors), will also be
void. Partner agrees to reimburse Merchant for all related costs involved,
including but not limited to, shipping, product cost, labor costs, legal
fees.
3. Ownership and Licenses. 3.1. Each party owns and shall retain all right,
title and interest in its names, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade
dress, copyrights and proprietary technology, including, without limitation,
those names, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, copyrights and

by it in the future.
3.2. Merchant grants Partner a revocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license
to use, reproduce and transmit the name, logos, trademarks, service marks,
trade dress and proprietary technology, as designated in the Engagement
or during the registration process in The Affiliate Program, on Partner's
site solely for the purpose of creating links from Partner's site to Merchant's
site during Engagements. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement
or permitted by applicable law, Partner may not copy, distribute, modify,
reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the same. Partner may
not sublicense, assign or transfer any such licenses for the use of the
same, and any attempt at such sublicense, assignment or transfer is void.
3.3. Partner grants Merchant a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license
to use, reproduce and transmit any graphic or banner ad submitted by Partner
solely for co-branding purposes or as a return link from Merchant's site
to Partner's site. Merchant will remove such graphic or banner ad upon Partner's
request. 3.4 Confidentiality agreement All work done for Paradise Multimedia Inc. will be held strictly confidential. Any and all information will not
be furnished to the public or outside parties without prior consent by Paradise Multimedia Inc.. 3.5 Non Compete Partner agrees not to divert any business
opportunities from the Merchant to yourself or to any other person or business
entity while part of this agreement and/or engagement. You also agree that,
for a period of one year following termination of this agreement, all clients
and customers to which Merchant sold products and/or services to shall be
considered Merchant clients and that you will not pursue or provide any
products or services similar to what Merchant provides to those clients
without written permission from Merchant. In the event that you violate
this provision, you agree to pay Merchant 50% of your first year billings
to Company's clients.
