DISTRIBUTOR - An Associate that purchases and/or markets Flint River Ranch products and develops a retail customer business to earn commission income.

SENIOR DISTRIBUTOR - A Distributor that develops a business to earn a commission income from individual purchases and retail customer sales - and is eligible to earn bonus income by sponsoring, training and supporting other Distributors. When a Distributor directly sponsors a new Distributor (the sponsoring distributor is now known as a Senior Distributor) - the downline network formed with and under the new Distributor is considered the Senior Distributor's group.

PERSONAL VOLUME (PV) - PV is assigned to retail product sales volume. PV can be generated from direct customer sales and/or personal purchases. PV is determined monthly and is not transferable.

CUSTOMER PRODUCT ORDERS
To correctly register a customer to a Distributor's account, customer's first order should be placed by the Distributor. Thereafter, customer can order direct. Include full payment (retail plus sales tax) with order, check or credit card. Orders are not processed on open account.

COMMISSION INCOME
A 19% PV commission is paid to qualified Distributors and Senior Distributors on their individual purchases and personal sales.

COMMISSION ELIGIBILITY
Personal Volume (100 PV) monthly is required for a Distributor or Senior Distributor to qualify for commission income on sales generated during that month. PV volume does not accumulate from one month to another.

BONUS ELIGIBILITY
Senior Distributor is also eligible for monthly bonus income if 100 PV qualified during the monthly period. A Group is Bonus Qualified (BQ) if one of the Distributors within the Group downline qualifies with 100 PV eligibility. Bonus eligibility is determined monthly and is not accumulated from one month to another. PV's are not transferable within Groups.

BONUS INCOME
Bonus income, based on downline level, is paid to qualified Senior Distributors on the individual purchases and personal sales of their downline Distributors and customers.

HOW THE LEVEL OF BONUS INCOME IS DETERMINED When a Senior Distributor directly sponsors a new Distributor - the network formed with and under the new Distributor is considered the Senior Distributor's sponsored Group. The number of monthly qualified Senior Distributor's separate Groups equals the number of levels down bonus income is paid. For example, if a Senior Distributor has 3 qualified Groups during the month, he is eligible for bonus income down to 3 levels.

Bonus Level is computed on balances greater than zero. If Distributor has zero volume for the month, the bonus level moves to the next Distributor who has a volume greater than zero. Bonus Income continues down to a maximum of 10 levels.

During the Flint River Ranch fiscal year, Senior Distributors are individually required to qualify with 100 PV, six out of twelve months to maintain Senior Distributor status.

SHIPMENT SIZE
There is no minimum PV order required for customer or Distributor shipments. Senior Distributor shipments require 100 PV minimum per order.

WHEN DO I GET PAID ?
Accounting "cut-off" is the last day of the month. Checks are computed and mailed on the 15th of the following month.

HOW DO I GET MY DISCOUNT ON PERSONAL PET FOOD ?
You pay regular price when you order your personal pet food. Once, you meet the 100 PV monthly minimum your monthly check will include your 19% discount and any other customers you have order that month.

DOES FLINT RIVER RANCH HAVE PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS ?
You can order a Distributor Manual for $8.00 that includes master forms and brochures. Just mention your interest when you order.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET SET UP AS A DISTRIBUTOR ?
I have had customers get setup in one day if they have an order and call in once their form is faxed. The number to call is 1-909-682-5048 the fax number is 1-909-682-5057. If you fax or mail the form without followup it will take considerably longer.

EXAMPLE OF INCOME POTENTIAL
For a qualified Distributor with one customer purchasing 40 PV's monthly - the commission earned is $7.60. This is 19% of the 40 PV's.

5 Customers ordering 40 PV monthly equals $38.00 month or $456.00 year.
10 Customers ordering 40 PV monthly equals $76.00 month or $912.00 year.
50 Customers ordering 40 PV monthly equals $380.00 month or $4560.00 year.
100 Customers ordering 40 PV monthly equals $9120 yearly.

Once established, customers usually continue to order on a monthly basis.

SENIOR DISTRIBUTORS
The same commission applies to a Senior Distributor's purchases and individual retail sales production. In addition, a qualified Senior Distributor receives Bonus Income as defined by the Bonus Override Compensation Plan.
