II. SCOPE OF CONTRACTOR. Company contracts AUTHORIZED AGENT as a
self-employed agent to sell cruises, land packages, tours and other vacation services
on non-exclusive basis.

III. COMPENSATION. As compensation for services provided as an AUTHORIZED AGENT
under this agreement the AUTHORIZED AGENT will be paid in the following manner:

The AUTHORIZED AGENT will receive a commissions based on the program selected above on
commissionable cruises, tours and resort packages for traveled booking made by the
AUTHORIZED AGENT where Company is paid by the supplier. The commission will be paid
monthly when client travels and supplier pays. Commission will be paid on all travel that is
completed, paid for by the client and where Company has received payment from supplier.

Company will also run special vendor promotions where 90% - 100% commission will be
paid out to TravelPro and TravelPro+ AUTHORIZED AGENTS in good standing.
TravelPro 100 in good standing receive 100% commission on all bookings. "Good standing"
is defined as an AUTHORIZED AGENT who has no outstanding invoices, charge backs,
actions by consumers, any governing body or who is not in violation of this agreement.

All commissions must be reported as soon as booked and claimed within a 6 months period.

The parties acknowledge that all clients introduced to Company by the independent
AUTHORIZED AGENT are and shall remain the property of the independent AUTHORIZED AGENT.
In no instance is the COMPANY allowed to contact any client of the AUTHORIZED AGENT
unless it is an emergency and the AUTHORIZED AGENT cannot be located. The COMPANY
cannot contact the client after the relationship with the AUTHORIZED AGENT has ended.

In no instance can the company sell, give or disclose names of AUTHORIZED AGENT clients
to anyone except for the booking tour or cruise company through whom the AUTHORIZED AGENT
arranged the trip.

All clients introduced to the independent AUTHORIZED AGENT by the company shall
remain the property of the company and the AUTHORIZED AGENT shall not contact those
clients after the relationship with the company has ended.

Fam trips will be approved for producing AUTHORIZED AGENTS in good standing after
an initial cruise or land booking.  Fam approval for on-going professional independent
partners is based on production. In other words, if you are an independent agent for six months
and show very little productivity then you will not be very high on the fam approval list. 

An AUTHORIZED AGENT can book the immediate family, when traveling in the company
of the AUTHORIZED AGENT at 100% commission once during a calendar year for a
small $25 per booking handling fee.  Immediate family is defined as parents, spouse and children
when traveling with the AUTHORIZED AGENT.
When available an AUTHORIZED AGENT in good
standing can take advantage of industry rates directly with supplier for himself or herself .

The AUTHORIZED AGENT will not book and pay the vendor NET prices thereby cutting
company out of share of company commission in cases where our licenses, relationships,
memberships, accreditations or our name is used.  Upon such discovery company will immediately
cancel the agreement and may keep all commissions due AUTHORIZED AGENT.

Company has the right to modify commission schedules depending on prevailing market
conditions, supplier commission policies and prevailing regulations. AUTHORIZED AGENTS
will receive notice if, and when these changes occur.

III. CLIENT PAYMENTS. Your client's credit card payments will be paid by you directly to
the supplier, while your client's checks will be made out to you, the AUTHORIZED AGENT
and YOU will make a check out to AuthorizedAgents. Suppliers will not take your personal
check. This is your business and your client checks ARE NOT to be made out to Company
EXCEPT in California and other states where laws require that client checks be made out to
the Company holding the license unless you are registered, bonded and approved by the respective  
state seller program. You are responsible for checking with each state as to travel seller requirements.

Certain states require disclosures to be given to the client BEFORE or at the time of taking
payment.  In such states where you do not have to pay fees and register because you are
working under our registration (such as California , Washington, Florida ) you are responsible for
supplying that information to the client in order to be compliant with state laws.  Some states
are very strict and failure to fully disclosure penalties and conditions may be a crime (such as
in California ). Therefore it is VITAL that you abide by all state laws.  We will provide you
with all 50 state links to Attorney General offices and with information on several key states.

All transactions with clients must be absolutely 100% legal. All client funds where our licenses,
memberships or relationships are used MUST be immediately paid to the vendor or to us so
that we may pay the vendor. The only other choice is a trust account.  Independent agents have
a fiduciary responsibility to their clients and all client monies MUST be protected. In many states,
such as California , commissions cannot be used and must be in a trust account until the client
receives the documents in full.  We hold all funds not sent to the supplier in a trust account until
the client travels.

Always make sure that when sending us a check ample time is given for the check to clear. We
will not pay the vendor until the check clears. If time is of the essence then a cashiers check is
required.

A written client confirmation and authorization form must be used on all package, cruise and
credit card sales
. A sample form that you can use will be provided. This form has basic legal
disclosures and protects you, us and the client. In today’s litigious society and with today’s seller
of travel laws this form is vital and failure to use the form will be considered a breach of this contract.
You keep the confirmation form unless there is a client dispute...then a copy is faxed to company.

Only credit cards of clients traveling can be used for payments. Do not accept
credit cards from anyone else but the traveler.

IV. DEADLINES, CHANGES, CANCELLATIONS.  All suppliers have cancellation,
deadlines and change policies. IT IS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT'S RESPONSIBILITY
TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU AND YOUR CLIENTS ARE AWARE OF SUPPLIER
REFUND PENALTIES AND DEADLINES, if any. You give us the authority and the
right to use any means to collect any and all penalties and cancellation fees incurred by
you with the suppliers and not promptly settled.

V. ADDITIONAL CHARGES TO AUTHORIZED AGENT. Phone numbers to cruise
lines, resorts and tours are all toll free. Other expenses, if any, incurred by the AUTHORIZED
AGENT during the course of their business will be the responsibility of the AUTHORIZED
AGENT. Expenses incurred by Company on behalf of the AUTHORIZED AGENT, such
as FedX or shipping charges, client cancellation processing fees, or vendor penalties
will be subtracted from AUTHORIZED AGENT commission. In case commission does
not cover these fees the AUTHORIZED AGENT will immediately reimburse the Company.

VI. WORKING RELATIONSHIP. The AUTHORIZED AGENT works on his or her
own schedule at location of his or her choice and sets his or her hours. Furthermore, the
AUTHORIZED AGENT is not required to work any particular number of hours, is not
required to perform any specific duties anywhere and is not required to perform any work
whatsoever at Company offices. It is totally up to the AUTHORIZED AGENT how he/she
will work and when. As a self-employed independent contractor AUTHORIZED AGENT
does not earn any vacation, sick pay or any other benefits. A 1099 will be issued where
required. AUTHORIZED AGENTS do not have desks, computers, offices, phones or
any other equipment provided by the company and do not come into the office to work.

complying with all state, federal, and local laws in connection with performance of this agreement,
including, but not limited to, payment of any estimated or other federal, state, or local income taxes,
payment of all social security taxes, FICA, worker's compensation taxes and for obtaining
any required state or local licenses or registration as a self-employed independent seller of travel.

VII. AGREEMENT CANCELLATION IN SPECIAL CASES. The agreement can be
cancelled immediately by the agency without notice if the AUTHORIZED AGENT does
not follow supplier regulations or if the AUTHORIZED AGENT knowingly misrepresents
any facts to the client, potential client or Company. Furthermore this agreement can be
canceled if the AUTHORIZED AGENT fails to obtain signed confirmation and/or credit
card authorization forms, or uses  client’s money in an inappropriate manner, or attempts
or does circumvent company commission share when using our numbers, licenses, authorizations
or name or for any other reason that Company may deem as detrimental to the program.

In addition, failure to comply with California, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, Washington Sellers of Travel Law,
failure to comply with any State or Government which has a Sellers of Travel Law
