AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT


This Agreement governs your participation in the Eros Dating Affiliate Program.

The Eros Dating Affiliate Program (the "Affiliate Program") is operated by Avid Dating Life Europe Limited dba Eros Dating
("Eros Dating" or "we" or "us"). In this agreement (the "Agreement"), the terms "Participant", "you" and "your" refer to
you (the applicant), and the "Sponsoring Website" refers to the website from which users will link to Eros Dating pursuant
to the Affiliate Program which has been disclosed to and approved by us. IF THIS AGREEMENT IS PROVIDED TO YOU IN
A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH IT IS FOR CONVENIENCE ONLY AND DOES NOT REFLECT SUBMISSION TO
OR COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THAT CONTAINED HEREIN .

1. Description of Affiliate Program


The Affiliate Program provides participants the ability to earn commissions as compensation for distributing the Eros Dating
online dating service (the "Service") available at Eros Dating's Website located at www.erosdating.com (the "Eros Dating
Site") and generating online subscriptions to the Service through pre-approved techniques and in accordance with the
Terms of this Agreement. To accomplish this, participants in the Affiliate Program (each, a "participant") utilize a Web
:
application to access Eros Dating links, banner ads, and other integration elements that link to the Eros Dating Site
(collectively, the "Integrations"). Participants may include any or all such Integrations on their Sponsoring Websites, subject
to the approvals and limitations set forth herein. Users who link to the Eros Dating Site via an Integration and create a
unique registration to the Service in the same session are attributed to the participant that operates the relevant Sponsoring
Website provided that it is not in violation of this Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, when such users
purchase subscriptions to the Service using such registration through a Sponsoring Website, the participant is eligible for a
commission for such qualifying subscription as described in Section 3 (Commission Fees) below.

2. Required Information; Affiliate Account


In order to join the Affiliate Program, you must provide us with all information required by our application process (including,
without limitation, a Form W-9, if applicable) and agree to all the terms of this Agreement. Upon successful receipt of your
application, we will promptly evaluate your application and you will be notified by email whether or not you have been
accepted into the Affiliate Program. We reserve the right to reject your application for any reason, including, without
limitation if your application does not reflect our business principles or if the Sponsoring Website contains any content listed
in Section 10 of this Agreement or other guidelines of our Affiliate Program.

Disclosure and Approval of Traffic Source(s)


All Sponsoring Websites must be approved by us. You may not direct traffic from any source other than your Sponsoring
Website(s). You must inform us of any change or addition to the URLs of your Sponsoring Website(s). Cloaking of the
referring URL is prohibited unless expressly approved by us. Any misrepresentation of traffic source is grounds for
termination from the program.

3. Commission Fees
Subject to compliance with the terms of this Agreement, we will pay you a commission fee (the "Commission Fee") on each
Qualifying Subscription (as defined below) to the Service purchased during the Term. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Qualifying Subscription" means a first-time subscription or purchase made by a customer using a registration to Eros
Dating that such user created after linking to the Eros Dating Site from the Sponsoring Website via an Integration from a
clearly and accurately identified referring URL that has been approved by us. The amount of the Commission Fee will be
determined in accordance with the then-current applicable commission structure (the "Commission Structure").

No Commission Fee will be paid on re-purchases or auto-renewals of existing Qualifying Subscriptions. If a Qualifying
Subscription for which a Commission Fee is paid to you is later refunded, deemed fraudulent or charged back, the relevant
Commission Fee will be deducted from the next payment sent to you following such event. No Commission Fee will be paid
on Qualifying Subscriptions from Customers who have first visited the Eros Dating Site before visiting the Sponsoring
Website in the 30 days prior to purchase.

We reserve the right to modify the terms of this Agreement and/or the Commission Structure at any time and for any reason
in our discretion. Please see Section 14 for more details. If at any time you disagree or do not wish to abide by the
terms of this Agreement or the Commission Structure, your only recourse is to end your participation in the
Affiliate Program.

4. Commission Fee Payments


Payment of Commission Fees is made by bank wire transfer. Payments are made twice monthly (approximately on or about
st th
the 1 and 15 of every month, or the next business day if the payment date falls on a weekend or holiday) and are two
weeks in arrears.
:
We reserve the right to require an initial one-time $500 holdback for our administrative purposes. You must reach a
minimum of 200.00 in at least one currency to request payment in connection with your account. Should your account have
less than a value of 120 total in your requested payout currency at the end of any pay period following your first pay period
of participation in the program, your account balance will be returned zero. Payment of the Commission Fees may be less
any taxes required to be withheld under applicable law. Payments are made according to Eros Dating's internal affiliate
reporting and may not be unreasonably disputed. We reserve the right to withhold payment in cases of suspected fraudulent
activity or breach of the terms of this Agreement. We further reserve the right to request return of Qualifying Subscription
Commission Fees earned as a result of prohibited activities or breaches of the terms of this Agreement.

5. Subscription Payment Processing

processing, renewal payment processing, cancellations and refund processing, and related customer service are the
