3 THE BASICS Before beginning, you need to familiarize yourself with some of the basic terms and concepts. These will help you better understand the different aspects of the LivElite compensation plan. Distributor A Distributor is anyone who joins LivElite by paying a Distributorship fee and agreeing to the LivElite Policies and Procedures. Distributors have exclusive benefits and responsibilities such as special Distributor (wholesale) pricing and the opportunity to participate in the LivElite compensation plan. The size of a Distributors business network and income will directly correspond to the Distributor s personal effort and results. Customer A Customer is anyone who purchases LivElite products either directly from a LivElite Distributor or from a Distributor s website. At this time, he or she is not interested in becoming a Distributor of LivElite, they only want to benefit from the LivElite products. Any referrals from Customers are directed to their respective LivElite Distributor. Recruiter A recruiter is the person who introduced you to the LivElite opportunity. This person is responsible for making sure all their personally recruited Distributors receive adequate training and support. Recruiters should also understand the goals of his or her personally recruited Distributors to better provide the support they need. Upline Since every Distributor has a recruiter, your recruiter has a recruiter, and they have a recruiter, and so on. We refer to them all together as your Upline. They are all there to support you. Reach out to them and benefit from their expertise. Downline This is name for all of the Distributors that make up Uni-Level and Binary Trees, those that you have personally recruited and those that are recruited by them. Volume Every product purchase, in addition to having both a Distributor (wholesale) price and retail price, is also associated with an amount of volume. The amount of volume in your organization will ultimately determine your commissions earned. A product s volume is represented as personal volume (PV) and commissionable volume (CV). Example: A product that sells for $100 (USD) may have 80 points of volume associated with it. Personal Volume (PV): The value assigned to a product that you personally consume. Commissionable Volume (CV): The total value assigned to products derived from you and your downline that is used to track business activity, qualifications, and to calculate earned commissions. Personally Recruited Distributor (PRD) Anyone that you ve personally recruited in the LivElite business are your Personally Recruited Distributors, or PRD for short. Other names for PRDs may also include Level 1 or front line" Distributors. Active The Distributor s required PV amount to be eligible to earn commissions. This requirement makes the Distributor Active for a 28 day cycle (four weekly commissionable periods). Qualified An Active Distributor with two personally recruited, Active Distributors, one on each Leg (left and right) in the Binary Tree. You must be Qualified to receive any team commissions or bonuses. LivElite International Compensation Plan I 2

4 THE BASICS How do I earn Commissions and Bonuses? To be "Qualified" to earn commissions and bonuses in the LivElite Compensation Plan, you must be "Active"with a personal order of at least 50 personal volume (PV) and maintain a personally recruited Distributor on the left leg and on the right leg of your Binary Tree who are also both Active with a minimum personal purchase of 50 PV each. With 50 PV, you will be considered Active for a total of four week-long commissionable periods (the period in which you place your order, plus three more periods). Being Active with 50 PV allows you to earn Uni-level Team Commissions only. However, when you generate 100 PV (50 PV of the 100 must be from your personal purchases), maintain a personally recruited Distributor on the left leg and on the right leg of your Binary Tree who are also both Active with a minimum personal purchase of 50 PV each you will be considered "Fully Qualified" for the same four weekly commissionable periods. Distributors that are fully qualified also earn Binary Team Commissions and all bonus programs that are part of the compensation plan. You will be paid on all personal volume (PV) in your Binary Tree and that may help you advance in rank. All volume derived from your personal customers purchases also count toward your personal volume. Example: You place an order that generates 50 PV and your customers place orders that generate 150 PV for a total of 200 PV. How often will I get paid? Commissions are processed weekly at the end of every seven-day period. Each period begins Sunday at 12:00 a.m. U.S. Mountain Time, and ends on Saturday at 11:59 p.m. U.S. Mountain Time. Commission calculations are finalized and posted the Wednesday following the close of the period. Payments are made on Friday of that same week EIGHT WAYS TO EARN COMMISSIONS 81.

5 1. LOYALTY BONUSES (LB) There are 5 different ways to earn Loyalty Bonuses. 1. Customer Bonus: As a LivElite Distributor, when you sell product at retail price to a customer, in person or via your personalized website, you earn the difference between the retail price and the wholesale price in a bonus commission. Products ordered from the website are sold to customers at retail price and the commissions earned are paid weekly. Customer orders also credit the Distributor with full personal volume (PV) in their Binary Tree on which they also will earn commissions. Example: A customer places a web order for product paying the retail price of $160 (USD). The wholesale price for this product is $120 (USD). The Distributor will earn $40 (USD) (the difference between retail $160 (USD) and $120 (USD) wholesale) plus the full volume associated with the product will be assigned to the lessor leg volume of their Binary Tree. 2. Loyalty Customer Bonus: When your customer agrees to an order that automatically ships every 28 days (4 weekly periods), that customer then receives the product at wholesale pricing. The Distributor earns 25% of the purchase price in a bonus commission and half of the assigned volume to that product is credited to the lesser leg of their Binary Tree on which they will also earn commissions. Example: A customer signs up for a Loyalty Product Purchase (LPP) for $120 (USD) (which is the wholesale or Distributor price) to be delivered every 28 days. The Distributor earns 25% of the $120 (USD) wholesale price, which is $30 (USD), plus they would be credited with 50% of the volume associated with the product. So when the volume associated with the $120 (USD) purchase is 100, then the Distributor would receive half or 50 PV on the lesser leg of their Binary Tree on which they will also earn commissions. 3. Recruiting Bonus: When a Distributor has a minimum of 200 PV in a 28 day cycle (four weekly commissionable periods) and recruits a new Distributor on the left leg and a new Distributor on the right leg of his Binary Tree structure, who each join with at least a 200 PV pack, the recruiting Distributor receives a $50 (USD) Recruiting Bonus. Each time the Distributor duplicates this by recruiting a new Distributor on the left and right leg of their Binary Tree, they receive a $50 (USD) Recruiting Bonus. Example: Duplicate this process 10 times and receive $500 (USD). 4. Product Pack Bonus: When a new Distributor joins LivElite and purchases a Product Pack, that new Distributor will receive a commission bonus associated with that pack. Pack #2 bonus is $70 (USD), Pack #3 bonus is $140 (USD), Pack #4 bonus is $280 (USD). The volume associated with each Pack is credited to the lesser leg of their Binary Tree on which they will also earn commissions. Example: A new Distributor joins LivElite and purchases Pack #3 for $1,000 (USD). The new Distributor will earn a $140 (USD) Product Pack Bonus and 800 PV will be credited to the lesser leg of their Binary Tree. 5. New Volume Bonus: When a Distributor generates brand new volume of 800 CV in their lesser leg in a weekly pay period, they receive a bonus of $100 (USD). Every time 800 new CV in generated in your lesser leg in any given weekly pay period a $100 (USD) bonus is paid. You are not eligible for this bonus at the Distributor Ranks of Gold Star or above. You can earn this bonus unlimited times. As long as you are below the rank of Gold Star, and generate 800 new volume in your lesser leg, you will earn this bonus. New Personal Volume (PV) also counts towards the qualification of 800 new CV. Loyalty Product Purchases (LPP) are recurring orders and are not considered new volume.

6 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURES Every Distributor, as they recruit others into their organization, build two structures simultaneously, a Unilevel Tree (Recruitment Tree) and a Binary Tree (Placement Tree). Here is a visual example. YOU L L2 1A 1B 1C 2A 2B 3A L3 1A 1 1B 1 2A 1 2A 2 YOU 1 2 1A 1B 2A 3 1A 1 U 1B 1 1C 2A 1 2A 2 3A 2B UNI-LEVEL TREE (Recruitment Tree) This is what insures your organization is structurally strong. This is the group of Distributors that you personally recruited. Every Distributor you personally recruit is on your first level or level 1 (L1). Their personally recruited Distributors then become your level 2 (L2). Those recruited by level 2 Distributors then become your level 3 (L3), and so on. There is no limit to the number of Distributors you can have in your Recruitment Tree. BINARY TREE (Placement Tree) This promotes teamwork and makes your commissions grow. All Distributors that make up your Recruitment Tree are also placed into a two-legged (or Binary) tree. Every Distributor in your Recruitment Tree is also part of your Placement Tree. However, your Placement Tree may also include Distributors that were recruited by your upline, represented by the letter "U" in the above graph. Your Placement Tree has two branches, otherwise known as legs. Your two legs will be known as your left leg and your right leg. The larger of the two is your greater or power leg. The smaller of the two is your lesser leg or pay leg". LivElite International Compensation Plan I 5

7 2. UNI-LEVEL TEAM COMMISSIONS (UTC) Uni-level Team Commissions are the foundation for a stable residual income. Build a solid Distributor and Customer base and receive commissions each week from product orders and/or re-orders generated in your organization down to five (5) levels deep of Active downlines. The number of levels you are paid on depends upon the number of Distributors you have personally recruited. You are paid 5% of the total commissionable volume (CV) of which you are eligible in the Uni-level Tree. Recruit 1-3 new distributors who remain active and receive 5% commissions on the total volume generated on Level 1. Recruit 4-5 distributors who remain active and also receive 5% commissions on the total volume generated on Level 2. Recruit 6-7 distributors who remain active and also receive 5% commissions on the total volume generated on Level 3. Recruit 8-9 distributors who remain active and also receive 5% commissions on the total volume generated on Level 4. Recruit 10 or more distributors who remain active and also receive commissions on the total volume generated on Level 5. You must maintain Active status with a minimum 50 PV in a 28-day cycle to be eligible to earn Uni-level Team Commissions. The minimum of 50 PV must come from your personal purchases. An Inactive Distributor in your Downline is not considered as one level and shall be compressed upwards to the next Active Distributor. Number of Active Personally Recruited Distributors who are active every 4 weekly commisionable periods (28 Day Cycles). UNILEVEL COMMISSIONS OUTLINE Level 1 5% 5% 5% 5% 5% Level 2 5% 5% 5% 5% Level 3 5% 5% 5% Level 4 5% 5% Level 5 5% Paid 5 levels down on all personal recruits - 5% payout, minimum 50 PV in the 28-day cycle and NO minimum level required ranks of Team. An Inactive Distributor in your Downline is not considered as one level and shall be compressed upwards to the next Active Distributor. Minimum 50 PV requirement needed.

8 3. BINARY TEAM COMMISSIONS (PAID WEEKLY) Binary Team Commissions are an integral part of the LivElite International Compensation Plan. The Binary Team is derived from a dynamic structure that compensates you for successfully generating sales volume within your Binary Tree (Placement Tree) and motivating your downline to do the same. Earn on the sales of those Distributors you, your upline, and your downline place within your Binary Tree. The Binary Tree has two sides, a Left Team and a Right Team, either of which can be the Power Leg (Greater Leg) or the Pay Leg (Lesser Leg) on any given commissionable period. The LivElite International Compensation Plan allows you to earn 10% on the Commissionable Volume (CV) of the Pay Leg. An equal amount of CV is then deducted from each Leg. A minimum of 100 PV is required to earn Binary Team Commissions. 50 PV of the 100 PV requirement must come from your personal purchases. To start your Binary Team, you must have two (2) personally recruited Distributors, one on the Left Leg and one on the Right Leg. Each must generate at least 50 PV, which is the Active Requirement. To remain Qualified for Binary Team Commissions, you must maintain the 100 PV requirement and maintain at least two (2) Personally Recruited Distributors one on the Left and one on the Right helping each generate a minimum 50 PV within the commissionable period. When you maintain your Active Status, you are allowed to Rollover any unpaid volume in your Power Leg to the next commissionable period. YOU Lesser Leg Volume PV 10% = $100 (USD) 1,200 Greater Leg Volume After commissions are paid, the volume in your lesser leg and the equivalent volume on your greater leg will then flush to start anew for the next weekly pay period. Any remaining volume in the greater leg then rolls over to the next weekly pay period. In the above example, the lesser leg has 1,000 total commisionable volume which includes your own PV. The greater leg has a total of 1,200 volume. Therefore, you earn 10% commissions on the lesser leg ($100 USD) and that paid volume of 1,000, along with 1,000 volume of the greater leg, will flush, and the remaining 200 volume in the greater leg will Rollover to count as unpaid volume in the next weekly pay period. Each week, any volume that's not matched and flushed in the Greater Leg will Rollover to the next weekly pay period. Rollover Rules: Should a Distributor become inactive, any accumulated rollover volume will be flushed and lost. After commissions are calculated, all paid volume from the Pay Leg will be reset to zero, and the unused volume from the Greater Leg will be carried over. There is absolutely no roll over of Lesser Leg volume. If a Distributor does not meet the minimum active requirement to be paid Binary Team Commissions, the volume on the Lesser Leg will flush without payment. Rollover volume is unlimited. However, only 50,000 of your rollover volume can be applied toward your commissions in a given month. LivElite International Compensation Plan I 7
