Effective Date: 01/01/2007
Alltrack USA Dealer Agreement
Alltrack USA ("Manufacturer") is engaged in the production and marketing of products for GPS tracking and you ("Dealer") would like to sell said products to end users of those products; and WHEREAS, the parties desire to make a joint commitment to the successful marketing of the Manufacturer's products and the resulting development of the Dealer's goodwill; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and the mutual promises of the parties hereinafter set forth, Manufacturer and Dealer mutually agree as follows:
1. Appointment
Manufacturer hereby appoints Dealer an authorized Dealer of Manufacturer to sell and promote the product described in paragraph II hereof, and Dealer hereby accepts such appointment, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement ("Agreement"). Manufacturer and Dealer will conduct their business with each other and with end users with honesty and in good faith.
2. Product
Dealer is authorized to promote, sell and install the Alltrack USA Real-Time GPS product.
The Real-Time product has monthly access fees associated with it which primarily cover behind-the-scenes cellular costs incurred by Alltrack USA in communicating with the vehicle. Each communication with a vehicle involves making a cellular call and is called a "poll". Each unit has assigned to it a number of polls alloted to it per month. The available monthly plans are: 3, 6, 40, 100, 250, 500, 1000, 2500 & 5000 polls. The 3 poll plan is the minimum plan required to keep a Real-Time unit's account active.
Dealers can purchase the Real-Time product in 2 ways: (a) As a product for resale to a customer or (b) as a Demonstration unit to use in-house (Note that the Demonstration unit could be sold at any time to a customer).
(a) Real-Time units sold for resale to the customer shall be set to have a minimum of 3 polls monthly @ $2.95 wholesale price set up on the unit's account in order to keep the unit active and ready to be used by a customer upon purchase. Alltrack USA will pay for the first 90 days of this monthly $2.95 fee on each unit from the purchase date. If the unit is sold, the customer will immediately take over the monthly poll fee. If the unit has not sold after 90 days, the Dealer is required to take over the monthly $2.95 fee until the unit is sold. At any time, when the Dealer sells a unit, the customer will immediately take over the montly poll charges.
(b) Real-Time units purchased as Demonstrators in-house will require a monthly polling plan to be selected and paid for by the Dealer at a wholesale price. The monthly poll plan selected will depend upon how much they plan on demonstrating the unit each month and thus how many polls they will be using.
Here are the plans available with the wholesale prices:
3 polls = $2.95/ .50 cents each over 3 polls used.
6 polls = $3.95/ .50 cents each over 6 polls used.
40 polls = $7.95/ .25 cents each over 40 polls used.
100 polls = $9.95/ .25 cents each over 100 polls used.
250 polls = $14.95/ .25 cents each over 250 polls used.
500 polls = $19.95/ .15 cents each over 500 polls used.
1000 polls = $29.95/ .15 cents each over 1000 polls used.
2500 polls = $49.95/ .15 cents each over 2500 polls used.
5000 polls = $69.95/ .15 cents each over 5000 polls used.
The selected monthly fee will begin pro-rated from the purchase date. And the poll plan can be changed if desired. Let Alltrack USA know of the desired poll change and it will take effect on the 1st of the following month.
3. Dealer's Territory
The territory within which Dealer is authorized to sell is anywhere within the United States of America. The Real-Time product has limited use in Canada and Mexico, because of (1) unavailable on-screen maps and (2) limited cellular coverage using the Aeris cellular network, which the Real-Time product utilizes. Therefore the product is not viable for sale in these locations at this time.
