Section 5: Trade Shows, Expos, and Fairs

A.  PARTICIPATION

Hello Pink products may be displayed, and the Hello Pink business opportunity offered, at official trade shows, expos, fairs, or other publicly-held events.

In order to protect the trademarks and trade names of the Company and its public image, Hello Pink reserves the right to restrict Stylist participation in such events, in all respects, including but not limited to pre-approval of the identity and number of Stylists allowed to participate in any such event.

B.  CODE OF CONDUCT

Subject to the rights of Hello Pink set forth above, Hello Pink Stylists may choose to participate in local trade shows, expos, fairs, and other publicly-held events that allow them to sell and display Hello Pink trademarked products and literature.

The following are the guidelines and code of conduct for a Hello Pink Stylist when selling at trade shows, expos, fairs, or other publicly-held events:

1.  Hello Pink Stylists are required to refrain from predatory pricing when selling or displaying Hello Pink products. Predatory pricing and such undercutting of other Hello Pink Stylists at trade shows, expos, fairs, or other publicly-held events is a particularly serious infringement of another Stylist’s right to earn the retail selling profit set forth in the compensation plan and to economically participate in said events and the opportunities they present. Conduct of this nature will not be tolerated and is grounds for suspension or termination of the violating person’s Stylist relationship. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to mean that predatory pricing in environments other than trade shows, expos, fairs, and other publicly-held events is condoned or will be allowed by Hello Pink.

2.  Stylists of Hello Pink products may only use Company-produced and/or approved literature and sales support materials when conducting, selling, and sponsoring efforts at public events. This includes banners, posters, art work, sales tickets, product information and brochures, and sponsoring information and brochures. All materials distributed at events must be approved Hello Pink according to the procedures described in Section 4, above.

3.  Professional conduct and courteous behavior is expected of all Stylists of Hello Pink when participating in public venues.

4.  When booking trade shows, expos, fairs, or other publicly-held events, the booking or listing must be under the Independent Stylist, not the Company or product name. However, at the same time, the booking or listing must make clear that the booth or space being rented is for the sale of Hello Pink product, so that double booking or overbooking of Hello Pink booths at any given event does not occur. In order to make this clear, Stylists must use “Hello Pink” as the first word of their listing when they register for any event. For example, a proper listing would say, “Hello Pink Independent Stylist/ Jane Doe or “Hello Pink Leggings, Independent Stylist.”

Section 6: Termination or Transfer of Business

A. VOLUNTARY TERMINATION

A Stylist may voluntarily terminate his or her Stylist relationship with Hello Pink. Voluntary termination is effective upon receipt of such notice by the Hello Pink corporate office.

E.  ACTION REVIEW

An involuntarily suspended or terminated Stylists may request that Hello Pink review and reconsider the action by submitting, in writing, the grounds for the review or reconsideration. This letter must be sent CERTIFIED U.S. MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, ACCEPTING SIGNATURE REQUIRED, and must be received by Hello Pink within twenty (20) calendar days of the date of mailing of the Company’s notice of suspension or termination. If the Company has not received a letter requesting review or reconsideration within the specified time, the Company’s action shall automatically become final.

If a Stylist submits a timely request for review, Hello Pink will, at its sole discretion, review and reconsider the suspension or termination and notify the Stylist of its decision.
