- DYNOTECH DEALER APPLICATION AND AGREEMENT
-
- DynoTech Software ("DynoTech"), invites interested individuals and
- organizations to apply as independent distributors for the computer
- program "BOXES" (Shareware Edition). An accepted entity will be known as
- "DynoDealer." A DynoDealer is an independent contractor, and is not an
- employee of DynoTech Software. DynoDealers are responsible for all taxes
- and fees associated with their shareware distribution business.
-
- For those accepted, here's the deal:
-
- 1. DynoTech agrees to pay a commission in US dollars equal to 5% of
- total registration payments received as a result of DynoDealer's
- verifiable distribution efforts.
-
- 2. DynoTech agrees to send DynoDealer a copy of BOXES containing a coded
- registration form on a 3 1/2" HD diskette, at no charge to DynoDealer.
- DynoTech will use the DynoDealer number shown on the form to verify
- DynoDealer's distribution efforts.
-
- 3. DynoTech agrees to send a check, drawn on a US bank, by the 20th of
- each month for all commissions earned during the previous month. However,
- DynoTech may not send a check until accumulated commissions exceed $10.
- Amounts equal to or less than $10 may continue to accumulate each month,
- until the total exceeds $10. DynoTech will issue appropriate income tax
- forms and reports, as required, each calendar year (e.g. Form 1099-misc).
-
- 4. DynoDealer agrees to register the "Champion Edition" of BOXES.
- DynoDealer's registration form must accompany this application, unless
- DynoDealer is already a registered owner of the "Champion Edition" of
- BOXES.
-
- 5. DynoDealer agrees to use all reasonably available methods to
- distribute BOXES. DynoDealer must distribute all files on the BOXES
- diskette received from DynoTech. Before distribution, DynoDealer may add
- one information file, but may not remove any files from the diskette. If
- distributed on diskette, DynoDealer may sell the diskette for no more
- than $5. If distributed in a compressed form, name the "zipped" file:
- BOXES.ZIP.
-
- 6. DynoDealer agrees not to distribute any registered editions of BOXES
- (includes any version or edition).
-
- 7. DynoDealer agrees that all disputes will be submitted in writing to
- President, DynoTech Software, 1105 Home Avenue, Waynesville, MO
- 65583-2231. The President's decision is final.
-
-
