B. A Distributor may not have a simultaneous beneficial interest in more than one Distributorship. A person cannot be a Distributor under more than one Distributor Agreement. 1. Under the Contract, an individual has a beneficial interest in the Distributorship of a spouse or cohabitant. If a spouse or cohabitant wishes to become a Distributor, he or she must be added to the Distributor Agreement previously formed with the other spouse or cohabitant. 2. Under the Contract, a person listed on a Business Organisation Information Sheet is considered to have a beneficial interest in the Distributorship existing in the name of that partnership, corporation, or other business organisation. If such a Person wishes to become a Distributor, that Person must be added to the Distributor Agreement which was previously formed with that partnership, corporation, or other business organisation. 3. Under the Contract, a partnership, corporation, or other business organisation is considered to have a beneficial interest in the Distributorship existing in the name of any Person listed on its Business Organisation Information Sheet. To become a Distributor, such a partnership, corporation, or other business organisation must be added to the Distributor Agreement, which was previously formed with that listed person. 4. No partnership, corporation, or other business organisation applying may become a Distributor if it lists any Person on the Business Organisation Information Sheet who is already a Distributor under another Distributor Agreement or such a person is a director, shareholder or partner.

For Distributors who did not hold an executive or higher pin-level within the two years prior to the last incidence of “Business Activity,” that Distributor must have not engaged in “Business Activity” for a six-month period prior to establishing a new distributorship. As used herein, “Business Activity” includes signing a Distributor Agreement, purchasing products from or returning products to the Company, Sponsoring new Distributors, or other activities the Company, in its sole discretion, determines to be a meaningful promotion of the Company’s business. D. A Distributor who has engaged in Business Activity may not at any time acquire an interest in or merge with a pre-existing distributorship under a different Sponsor. E.

The Company may also impose penalties on any distributorship that solicits or entices an existing Distributor to change lines of sponsorship. G. A Distributor may dispose of, transfer, or otherwise assign his/her distributorship receivable or proceeds in any manner allowed by applicable law (including sale, gift, or bequest) with the prior written consent of Nu Skin International, which consent may not unreasonably be withheld.

Nu Skin derives, compiles, configures and maintains the Distributor Lists and has developed and continues to develop specialist marketing techniques (“Nu Skin Assets”) which it makes available to Distributors. If a Distributor who has at any time achieved a pin level of Executive or above, or any participant in such a Distributorship, or any entity from or through which they receive a financial interest, is recognised or attains a position similar to Executive level status in any other direct selling or network marketing organisation or is publicly participating as a speaker or trainer for any other direct selling or network marketing organisation or if Nu Skin reasonably believes that Distributor or the Distributorship is guilty of such conduct, Nu Skin reserves the right, notwithstanding the procedure set out in Section 6 of these Policies and Procedures, at its sole discretion to immediately withdraw Distributor privileges and/or to stop Distributor activity. In this section the following terms have the following meanings:

“Distributor privileges” means: recognition of a pin level status, including publication of such recognition in any Nu Skin publication or at a Nu Skin event; or withholding pin level recognition for the purposes of payout and bonuses under the Sales Compensation Plan; allowing participation as an international sponsor; promotion within the Sales Compensation Plan.



“Distributor activity” means: ordering products, sponsoring, holding meetings.



“recognised”: means recognised as achieving or maintaining a position similar to Executive through any direct selling or network marketing organisation’s corporate or distributor meetings (open or closed), honour board or any form of printed or electronic material.

A Distributor is personally responsible to satisfy all federal, state, territorial, and local laws and regulations. H.

In addition, every Distributor must sign an International Distribution and Sponsor Agreement for conducting business in an Authorised Country outside of the United States or Canada which must be accepted and acknowledged as accepted by Nu Skin prior to any international activity in the Authorised Country. Nu Skin International, Inc., in its sole discretion, reserves the right to reject the International Distribution and Sponsoring rights of a Distributor. The Distributor’s right to receive bonuses/commissions in an Authorised Country may be revoked at anytime if Nu Skin International, Inc. or any Affiliated Company has evidence that the Distributor has not conducted himself or herself in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein and/or other requirements of the Contract incorporated herein by reference. Nu Skin’s ability to withhold a Distributor’s right to Bonuses/commissions or take other remedial measures for breach of the Contract, as set forth in other sections of these policies, is not limited by this section.

Nu Skin cannot accept collect calls from a Distributor. K.

Section 5: Sales Compensation Plan

A. A Distributor receives no compensation for sponsoring or introducing other Distributors. B. A Distributor is neither guaranteed a specific income nor assured any level of profit or success. A Distributor’s profit and success can come only through the successful retail sale of Nu Skin products and the retail sales of other Distributors within the Distributor’s Downline organisation. C. Without affecting a Distributor’s status as a Distributor and such Distributor’s right to profits based on his/her sale of Nu Skin products, such Distributor can receive a Bonus only if, on a monthly basis: 1. such Distributor achieves at least 100 points in Personal Sales Volume, and 2. such Distributor documents retail sales to at least five retail customers, and 3. such Distributor sells and/or personally consumes at least 80 percent of Personal Sales Volume, and 4. such Distributor is not in default in any of his/her material obligations under the Contract. 6

Policies & Procedures

D. An order for Nu Skin products to be sold is included in the Bonus and Executive-level qualification computations for a given month only if received (accompanied by a proper payment) by a Nu Skin authorised Distribution Center on or before the last business day of that month. If a credit voucher is issued on Nu Skin products ordered but not available that month, Personal Sales Volume for such products will only be included in Bonus and Executive-level qualification computations for the month in which such voucher is redeemed. E. Each Distributor receiving a Bonus agrees to retain documentation evidencing the sales referred to in Sub-section 5.C (2) above. Each Distributor agrees to make this documentation available to Nu Skin at Nu Skin’s request. A Distributor’s failure to make such documentation reasonably available constitutes a breach of the Contract and entitles Nu Skin to recoup any Bonuses paid with respect to any orders in that month. F. In addition to any recoupment rights provided above, Nu Skin reserves the right to recoup any Bonus paid to any Distributors on products: 1. returned under the refund policy established by any Nu Skin authorised Distribution Center; 2. returned to a Nu Skin authorised Distribution Center under any applicable law; or 3. returned in relation to any incident of Distributor misconduct involving unauthorised or misleading representations made either in connection with the offer or sale of any Nu Skin product, or in connection with the Sales Compensation Plan.

H. A Bonus is paid by cheque or other bank transfer in the name of the first-listed Distributor on the Distributor Agreement. 1. Bonus cheques of $5,000.00 or more are delivered by courier. Except as provided in Subparagraph 2, there is a service charge. A Distributor may cancel this service at any time. 2. Bonus cheques of $10,000.00 or more are delivered by courier at no cost to the Distributor. I.

To the extent required by law, Nu Skin will send notification to relevant tax authorities in each country, territory, or political jurisdiction in which the Distributor or downline Distributor’s in his/her organisation is authorised to conduct an independent Company-related business. This notification informs such authorities that a Distributor has received Bonus payments or purchased products, and specifies the amount thereof.

Section 6: Terminating a Distributor Contract

A. A Distributor’s rights under this Contract are conditioned upon and subject to the Distributor’s continued performance in accordance with these Policies & Procedures. Upon failure by a Distributor to perform his/her obligations as set forth in the Contract, the Distributor’s rights cease and Nu Skin may elect to terminate the Contract. At Nu Skin’s discretion, Nu Skin may excuse a Distributor’s non-performance in whole or in part. Further, in connection with or in lieu of terminating the Contract, Nu Skin may: 1. provide written notification to the Distributor of Nu Skin’s concerns and of Nu Skin’s intent to discontinue the Distributor’s rights under the Contract if the Distributor’s non-performance continues; 2. closely monitor the Distributor’s conduct and his/her Distributorship over a specified period of time to ensure performance by the Distributor; 3. require additional assurances by the Distributor that performance will be in compliance with the Contract. Further assurances may require the Distributor to take certain actions in an effort to mitigate or correct the Distributor’s non-performance; 4. deny privileges, which are awarded to Distributors from time to time by Nu Skin or cease performing Nu Skin’s obligations under the Contract, including, but not limited to, awards, recognition at corporate events, or in corporate literature, participation in Company sponsored events, placing product orders, promotion within the Sales Compensation Plan, allowing participation by the Distributor as an international sponsor. 5.

Seek injunctive relief or other remedies available by law. B.

The following procedure applies when Nu Skin investigates a Contract violation: 1. Nu Skin will send a formal written notice to the Distributor for the alleged breach of contract. 2. Nu Skin reserves the right to prohibit Distributor activity (i.e., placing orders, sponsoring, modifying Distributor information, receiving Bonuses, etc) in relation to the respective Distributorship from the time notice is sent to the Distributor until a Company decision is rendered. 3. On the basis of any information obtained from collateral sources and from Nu Skin’s investigation of the facts, taken together with information submitted to Nu Skin during the applicable response period, Nu Skin will make a final decision regarding the appropriate sanction, which may include the termination of a Distributor’s Contract. While a case is under investigation by Nu Skin, or the subject of an appeal or mediation/arbitration, no information as it relates to the case will be released to any Distributor in order to protect the rights and privacy of all parties. Nu Skin reserves the right to impose sanctions for the Contract violations on a case-by-case basis. Nu Skin will promptly notify the Distributor of its decision. Any sanctions will be effective as of the date on which notice is dispatched.

C. A Distributor may terminate his/her Contract at any time, for any reason, by sending a written notice of intent to terminate to Nu Skin. Termination becomes effective as of the date Nu Skin International enters the termination on its computer system. D. No written notice of intent to terminate need be given by either the Distributor or Nu Skin when a Distributor is inactive for six months.

Nothing herein should be constituted to guarantee coverage or obligate Nu Skin International or any Affiliated Nu Skin Company to honour, settle or pay any product claims.

Section 15: Door-to-Door Sales

A. In addition to the rescission period which Nu Skin International requires a Distributor to extend to his or her customer (see section 13), the direct selling of products to consumers can be subject to the provisions of door-to-door sales legislation. Door-to-door sales laws vary in each Australian state and territory. A Distributor is solely responsible for becoming familiar and complying with the door-to-door laws in the jurisdiction/s in which he or she conducts his or her Nu Skin business. The Retail Order forms provided by Nu Skin Australia to a Distributor are not intended to comply with the door-to-door sales requirements in any of the Australian jurisdictions and should not be construed as such nor as a substitute for the appropriate, relevant, and correct compliance requirements, forms, and notices. The Distributor releases Nu Skin from any obligation to ensure or assist with compliance, as well as from any liability arising from a Distributor’s failure to comply. Policies & Procedures 9

Section 16: Distribution of Company Leads A.

From time to time, Persons inquire about the Nu Skin opportunity or products directly through Nu Skin International or its Affiliated Companies. If the Person heard about Nu Skin from a Distributor, the Person is referred back to that Distributor. Persons who have heard about Nu Skin without a discoverable contact are distributed to existing Executive Distributors as fairly as possible, usually in the locality of the Persons making the inquiry. Nu Skin reserves the right to make final judgments with respect to distribution of leads.

Section 17: Distributor Lists

A. Distributor lists (“Lists”) are the confidential and proprietary property of Nu Skin International. Nu Skin International has derived, compiled, configured, and currently maintains the Lists through the expenditure of considerable time, effort, and monetary resources. The Lists, in their present and future forms, constitute commercially advantageous proprietary assets and trade secrets of Nu Skin International, which Nu Skin International’s employees have agreed to hold confidential. The right to disclose the Lists and Distributor information maintained by Nu Skin International is expressly reserved. B. Nu Skin International provides a uniquely tailored portion of the Lists to Executive-level Distributors, qualifying Executive-level Distributors and, for a fee, to other Distributors requesting such portion (collectively and individually the “Recipient”) on a monthly basis. Each portion of the provided Lists contains only information specific to the Recipient’s level and his/her own Downline Organisation. 1. These Lists are provided for the exclusive and limited use of the Recipient to facilitate the training, support, and servicing of the Recipient’s Downline Organisation for use solely for the furtherance of the Nu Skin business. Each Recipient agrees that any such use, within its intended scope, constitutes a separate, exclusive license agreement between the Recipient and Nu Skin International. 2. These Lists remain, at all times, the exclusive property of Nu Skin International, which may, at any time and in Nu Skin’s sole discretion, reclaim and take possession of the Lists. Accordingly, each Recipient agrees: a. to hold confidential and not disclose any Lists or portions thereof to any third Person, including, but not limited to, existing Distributors, competitors and the general public; b. to limit use of the Lists to their intended scope of furthering the Distributor’s Nu Skin related business; c. that any intended or unintended use or disclosure of the Lists outside of those authorised herein, or for the benefit of any third person, constitutes misuse, misappropriation, and a violation of the Recipient’s license agreement, which causes irreparable harm to Nu Skin International or its Affiliated Companies; d. that, upon any violation under this Section, the Recipient will stipulate to appropriate injunctive belief enjoying such use under applicable national or local laws, and retrieve and return to Nu Skin International all Lists previously provided to the Recipient; e. that the obligations under this Section will survive the termination of the recipient’s Contact. 3. Nu Skin International reserves the right to pursue all appropriate remedies under applicable national or local laws to protect its rights to the above-stated proprietary and trade secret lists; any failure to pursue such remedies will not constitute a waiver of those rights.

Section 18: Product Claims

A. Distributors may make only those product claims and representations found in the literature distributed by Nu Skin for use in Australia. B.

The majority of products sold by Nu Skin are cosmetics or foods, but some are therapeutic goods regulated by the Therapeutic Goods Authority (TGA).The TGA regulates and oversees the sale of therapeutic products to assure their safety and proper representation to the public.

C. A Distributor may represent only that Nu Skin products are safe for use when used as intended – for the limited purpose of improving appearance through regular use of personal care products and increasing the feeling of improved and better health through the use of nutritional products. D. All product claims and representations must be the same as those found in the current literature distributed by Nu Skin for use in Australia. E.

While Nu Skin makes every effort to achieve full compliance with complicated and periodically amended cosmetic, food, import, trade, and therapeutic goods regulations, no Distributor should claim or imply that any Nu Skin product is approved by the TGA or any other government body unless the product has been registered/approved by such governmental body. Compliance with applicable laws does not imply government approval of Nu Skin products.

Section 19: General Business Ethics

A. Each Distributor agrees that he/she will not make, by any means, misleading, unfair, inaccurate, or disparaging comparisons, claims, representations, or statements about other persons’ (including competitors), companies, their products, or their commercial activities. Each Distributor also agrees that he/she will not take unfair, misleading or inaccurate claims about Nu Skin, Nu Skin products or the commercial activities of Nu Skin. B. A Distributor acknowledges that he/she has no authority to take any steps in any country or other political jurisdiction toward the introduction of furtherance of the business. This includes, but is not limited to any business practices; or to establish business or governmental contacts. A Distributor agrees to indemnify Nu Skin for all costs incurred by Nu Skin for any remedial action needed to exonerate Nu Skin in the event the Distributor improperly acts on behalf of Nu Skin.

As set forth in Subsection 3 of this Section 20I, only Blue Diamond Distributors may maintain an Internet Marketing Site.

Your refusal to purchase these items will not affect your upline’s responsibility to provide you with training and support. Nu Skin International, Inc. does not approve, endorse, recommend or support these materials and services. Your expenditures on these items should be reasonable and the amount you spend should be in relation to your business and sales volume.

In the event you desire to return the Sales Aids or services, you may obtain a refund only from the independent distributor who sold you the Sales Aids or services.

The above-stated designation may only be used after a certificate has been received by the submitting Distributor from Nu Skin, which certificate specifically indicates that the material may be made available for distribution.

B. Nu Skin may impose a reasonable fee for reviewing a Sales Aid. Distributors should allow for a minimum of three weeks for Nu Skin to complete its review of submitted materials. C. Nu Skin reserves the right to require any change to Sales Aid it deems necessary to ensure appropriate content before allowing the Sales Aid to bear its review designation as stated above. D.

In addition to Nu Skin International’s review, all Distributors who intend to produce and distribute Sales Aids in accordance with this section are strongly advised to seek the advice of independent legal counsel with regard to the legality and regulatory compliance of sales aids.

Section 22: Retail Store, Service Establishment Sales and Trade Show Policy

A. A Distributor may not sell products and/or promote the Nu Skin Enterprises business opportunity through retail stores such as health food stores, grocery stores, and other such establishments. A Distributor is also prohibited from selling to any person who will ultimately sell products or services through retail stores. B. In general a Distributor may not sell any products and/or services of the Company nor promote the Company’s opportunity at flea markets, swap meets, bazaars, men’s/women’s groups, supermarkets, malls or any other similar gathering where the opportunity or products are displayed. However, upon the prior written approval of the Company, an Executive level Distributor may rent a booth or set up an exhibit at a trade show or convention (“Convention”), subject to the Company’s approval of the Convention and compliance with the following requirements: 1. An Executive level Distributor may rent or set up a booth at one Convention at a time if the Convention theme is directly related to the Distributor’s Nu Skin Enterprises business. Additional Conventions can only be requested upon completion of the Distributor’s first convention and receipt of the Trade Show Results form. 2. At least four weeks prior to the Convention, the Executive must submit to the Company a proposal regarding the Convention and obtain prior written approval from the Company. a. The Distributor may only use Company-produced sales aids and promotional material. b. The Distributor will not reference Nu Skin Enterprises in any form of advertisement or promotional material that implies that Nu Skin Enterprises is participating in the Convention. Instead, any Company-approved advertisement or promotional material must make specific reference to the Distributor as an independent Executive level Distributor of Nu Skin Enterprises, including any maps or listings prepared by the sponsor of the Convention. c. The Distributor will not make any earnings representations of any kind. 3. The Distributor will not use the Convention to promote any product, service, or business opportunity other than Pharmanex, Nu Skin, Big Planet, or any other Nu Skin Enterprises business in which the Distributor may be involved. 4. During the Convention the Distributor must personally comply with the Policies and Procedures and is responsible for (i) the actions of every person who works in the booth at the Convention, (ii) all material distributed at the Convention, and (iii) all other aspects of participation in the Convention. 5. In addition to the other remedies provided in the Policies and Procedures, the Company reserves the right to deny future Convention participation for any policy violation at a Convention. 6. The Company reserves the right to charge a fee for participation in Conventions. C. A Distributor who owns or is employed by a service-related establishment may provide Nu Skin products and services to customers through this establishment as long as he/she is providing proper pre-screening and ongoing support to his/her customers as called for by the Contract. In any event, no Nu Skin products, banners, or other sales aid materials may be displayed visibly to the general public in such a manner as to attract the general public into the establishment to purchase Nu Skin products. 1. A service-related establishment is one whose revenue is earned primarily by providing personal service rather than by selling products. Such establishments include offices of doctors, dentists, chiropractors and other health professionals, health clubs, gymnasiums, barber shops, beauty shops, nail boutiques, counselling services, tanning centres, and other such businesses where customer use of the establishment is controlled by membership or appointment. D. Nu Skin reserves the right to make the final determination as to whether an establishment is service related or otherwise a proper place for the sale of Nu Skin products.

Section 23: Contract Changes Nu Skin International expressly reserves the right to make any modifications to the Contract (including these Policies and Procedures, the Sales Compensation Plan, the Distributor Agreement, the Business Organisation Information Sheet and the International Sponsor Agreement) upon thirty days’ prior written notice through normal channels of communication or separate mailer. Each Distributor agrees that thirty (30) days after publication of such notice, any such modifications become effective and automatically incorporated into the Contract between Nu Skin International and its Distributors as an effective and binding provision. 1. By continuing to act as a Distributor after such modifications have become effective, a Distributor acknowledges acceptance of the new Contract terms. Policies & Procedures 17

Section 24: Waiver The waiver by Nu Skin International of any Distributor’s breach of any provision of the Contract must be in writing and will not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent or additional breach. The failure by Nu Skin International to exercise any right or prerogative under the Contract will not operate as a waiver of such right or prerogative.

Section 25: Integrated Contract A.

The Contract is the final expression of the understanding and agreement between Nu Skin International and a Distributor concerning all matters touched upon in the Contract, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements or understandings (both oral and written) between the parties, and invalidates all prior notes, memoranda, demonstrations, and descriptions relating to the subject matter of the Contract. The Contract may not be altered or amended, except as provided in these Policies and Procedures. The existence, and the terms, of the Contract may not be contradicted by evidence of any alleged prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreement.

B. Should any discrepancy exist between the terms of the Contract and verbal representations made to any Distributor by any Nu Skin employee, the terms and requirements of the Contract will prevail.

Section 26: Severance Any provision of the Contract that is prohibited, judicially invalidated, or otherwise rendered unenforceable in any jurisdiction is ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition, invalidation, or unenforceability in that jurisdiction, and only within that jurisdiction. Any prohibited, judicially invalidated or unenforceable provision of the Contract will not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of the Contract, nor will such provision of the Contract be invalidated or rendered unenforceable in any other jurisdiction.

Section 27: Governing Law The place or origin of this Contract, the place where Nu Skin International accepted the offer of a prospective Distributor to form the Contract, is the State of Utah, USA. This Contract is to be construed, with respect to its validity and performance obligations thereunder, in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah applicable to contracts made and to be wholly performed within such State. A Distributor agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Utah for resolution of any conflict or litigation arising under or purporting to interpret the Contract.

Section 28: Notices Any notice or other communications requested or permitted to be given under the Contract shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally transmitted by facsimile, or sent by certified (or registered), or express mail, postage prepaid, and, unless otherwise provided in the Contract, shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or if transmitted by facsimile, one day after the date of such facsimile; or if mailed, five (5) days after the date of mailing to the address of Nu Skin’s headquarters or to the Distributor’s address (as provided on the Distributor Agreement), unless notice of a change thereof has been received. Nu Skin International shall have the right, as an alternative method of notice under this Section 28, to use mailers or other normal channels of communication with Distributors.

Section 29: Successors and Assigns The Contract shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 30: Litigation and Claims

A. In order to protect Nu Skin, its assets, and its reputation from claims or disputes created by outside (non-Distributor) third parties, Nu Skin International, Inc. requires the following: if any Distributor is charged with any infringement of any proprietary right of any outside third party (who is not a Distributor) arising from, any of Nu Skin’s proprietary assets, or if the Distributor becomes the subject of any claims or suit related to such Distributor’s conduct, related business or any other action that directly or indirectly negatively affects or puts at risk Nu Skin, its reputation, or any of its tangible or intangible assets of whatever nature, such Distributor shall immediately notify Nu Skin, and Nu Skin may, at its own expense and upon reasonable notice, take whatever action it deems necessary (including, but not limited to, controlling any litigation or settlement discussion related thereto) to protect itself, its reputation, and its tangible and intangible property. Such Distributor shall take no action related to any such claims and suit, unless Nu Skin consents, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. B.

18

To expedite the prompt resolution of any disputes which may arise under the Contract, Nu Skin International, Inc. has instituted a Mediation/ Arbitration policy. This policy deals with the disposition of disputes arising out of the independent contractor relationship between Nu Skin International, Inc. and its independent contractors and/or disputes arising out of the relationship between Nu Skin International, Inc. independent contractors themselves. Distributors’ complaints are first handled by the Distributor Conduct Review Committee as described by Section 6 of the Policies and Procedures. The Mediation/Arbitration policy will also apply in the event a Distributor disagrees with any disciplinary action or interpretation of the Contract by Nu Skin. The Mediation/Arbitration policy is mandatory. The complete Mediation/ Arbitration policy is available upon request from Nu Skin International to parties who are involved in the controversy as defined above.

Policies & Procedures

C.

Appeal and Mediation/Arbitration Policy

In order to expedite the resolution of any disputes that may arise under the independent Distributor Agreement, Nu Skin International, Inc. (“Nu Skin” or “ Company”) and its sales force of independent contractors (“distributors”) desire to institute the following Appeal and Mediation/Arbitration Policy (“Policy”). Disputes arising out of the independent contractor relationship between Nu Skin and its independent distributors and/or disputes between distributors arising out of business relationships as Nu Skin independent contractors will be resolved according to the Policies and Procedures and this Policy. This Policy is incorporated into Section 30 of the Policies and Procedures by reference. In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, Nu Skin and each distributor agree to abide by the provisions of this Policy. All disputes between Nu Skin and a distributor, which arise out of the contract between the parties, are handled initially by the Distributor Conduct Review Committee (“DCRC”) as described in Section 6 of the Policies and Procedures. Pursuant to this Policy, all disputes between distributors that consist of adverse legal interests, which arise out of or are related directly to the Nu Skin business, and that require an immediate and definitive determination, will also be initially referred to the DCRC. After a dispute has been reviewed and decision made by the DCRC, then the appeal procedures of this Policy will apply. There are three potential forums of review of a distributor’s dispute: 1. review and decision by the Distributor Conduct Appeal Committee; 2. Mediation by a neutral third party; and 3. Arbitration by a neutral third party. If a party is not satisfied with a decision, then said party may request the decision to be reviewed in the next forum for resolving the dispute. However, a dissatisfied party may only proceed to the next level of review or abide by the decision. A distributor cannot remove the dispute to a court of law. This Policy is the agreed upon procedure for resolving any of the above-described disputes.

The last forum for resolving a dispute is arbitration. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding, which means that the award is conclusive and a final adjudication of the dispute. It is the same as a judgment and is enforceable by a court of law. Nu Skin’s Policy is intended to balance the privacy of participants and witnesses with the right of distributors to information and evidence. Therefore, until the initiation of the arbitration process, information and evidence will be released to distributors as Nu Skin deems necessary in its sole discretion depending on the complexity of the case and its duty to preserve the delicate balance between privacy and disclosure. If the dispute proceeds to arbitration, then information and evidence shall be discoverable pursuant to the rules of the arbitration.

D. Distributor Disputes 1. Disputes Between Distributors a. In the event of a dispute between Nu Skin distributors that consist of adverse legal interests, which arise out of or are related directly to the Nu Skin business, the aggrieved distributor is encouraged to first attempt to resolve the issue with the other party by direct discussion. The parties involved shall also contact Nu Skin in writing with a brief description of the dispute. b. If the direct discussions do not resolve the dispute, the complaining distributor (“Claimant”) shall notify Nu Skin by providing Nu Skin’s DCRC with a written, sworn statement of the material facts of the dispute (“Complaint”).The Complaint shall include the following: i. The full name, title, work or home address and telephone number of each person known to have relevant information about factual matters pertaining to the circumstances set forth in the Complaint; ii. Copies of all relevant documents in the Claimant’s possession, custody or control that support the position of the Claimant; and iii. Copies of relevant agreements between any of the distributors involved in the dispute. c. Additionally, the Claimant may include a description of the efforts used by the parties to informally resolve the dispute. Failure to provide the DCRC with a complete Complaint may result in a delay of the investigation of the Complaint by the Company. Furthermore, failure to provide the DCRC with a complete Complaint may result in dismissal of the Complaint and forfeiture of all rights under this Policy. d. The Company shall undertake a reasonable review of the Complaint and within ninety (90) days of receipt of the Complaint, the DCRC shall issue a written decision (“DCRC Decision”) of its findings regarding the Complaint and send it by priority mail to the Claimant. When deemed appropriate by the Company in its sole discretion, a copy of the DCRC Decision will be sent to any other interested party to the Complaint. e. If the Claimant and the identified parties to the Complaint are satisfied with the DCRC Decision, then the dispute is deemed resolved and there is no need to proceed further. Furthermore, the Claimant and the identified parties to the Complaint agree to comply with the DCRC Decision. However, if the Claimant or any identified party to the Complaint is not satisfied with the DCRC Decision, then the dispute is not resolved and the parties may proceed to the appeal process set forth below in Section III. 2. Disputes Between Nu Skin and Distributors Disputes between Nu Skin and a distributor arising out of their contractual relationship are initially reviewed by DCRC pursuant to the procedure set forth in section 6 of the Company’s Policies and Procedures. Once the DCRC has rendered a decision (“DCRC Decision”), it will promptly notify the distributor. If the distributor is not satisfied with the DCRC Decision, then the distributor may appeal. The appeal process is set forth below in Section III.

Policies & Procedures 19

E.

Appeal 1. Appeal Request a. A distributor, who has received a DCRC Decision, may appeal the DCRC Decision by providing the Company’s Distributor Conduct Appeals Committee (“DCAC”) with a written appeal (“Appeal”). Any distributor who submits an Appeal to the DCAC shall be referred to as an “Appellant.” b. The Appeal must be submitted to the DCRC within ten (10) business days (“Appeal Period”) from the date of the DCRC Decision and detail the Appellant’s objections to DCRC Decision. Failure to appeal the DCRC Decision within the Appeal Period will constitute acceptance of the DCRC Decision and the distributor agrees to abide by its terms. Should an Appellant require additional time beyond the Appeal Period in which to submit his Appeal, said Appellant must send written notice to the DCAC stating the reasons why he needs additional time for his submission. The DCAC will then notify the Appellant whether it will grant or deny the request. If granted, the DCAC will provide a new deadline for the Appellant’s submission of an Appeal. c. The Appeal is limited in length to ten (10) written pages. It must include a sworn statement in response or rebuttal to the DCRC Decision and should contain all relevant information reasonably necessary for the DCAC to evaluate the Appeal. 2. Decision of DCAC a. Upon the expiration of the Appeal Period or any extension, the DCAC will review the Appeal and the information provided to the DCRC. The DCAC will issue its final report (“DCAC Decision”) within ninety (90) days, and will send its DCAC Decision to the Appellant. A copy of the DCAC Decision will also be sent to any other identified party to the Appeal and any upline that is affected by the DCAC Decision. b. If the Appellant and the identified parties to the Appeal are satisfied with the DCAC Decision, then the dispute is deemed resolved and there is no need to proceed further. Furthermore, the Appellant and the identified parties to the Appeal agree to comply with the DCAC Decision. However, if the Appellant or any identified party to the Appeal is not satisfied with the DCAC Decision, then the parties may proceed to the mediation process set forth below in Section IV.

F.

Mediation 1. Request for Mediation a. The Appellant or any party to the Appeal shall promptly notify the DCAC in writing within ten (10) business days from the date of the DCAC Decision that said party requests that the dispute be referred to a neutral third party mediator (“Petition for Mediation”). Failure to submit a timely Petition for Mediation will constitute acceptance of the DCAC Decision and the distributor agrees to abide by its terms. The Petition for Mediation shall include any additional statements of facts or legal causes of action that have not already been provided to the DCRC or DCAC. b. Within ten (10) business days of receipt of the Petition for Mediation, Nu Skin shall notify its outside counsel of the Petition for Mediation. Nu Skin’s outside counsel shall contact the parties to the Appeal, including those uplines affected by the DCAC Decision, regarding a mediation date and provide a list of potential mediators. The mediation shall be conducted by a neutral third party or professional mediator that has been agreed to by the parties. Parties that participate in the mediation and/or arbitration, including Nu Skin, will be referred to as the “Participants.” 2. Mediation a. The Participants agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute by mediation before resorting to arbitration. The mediation will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah at the offices of Nu Skin’s outside counsel. The mediation will take place no later than six months from the date of the Appeal. b. The mediation will be conducted in the English language. However, at the request and the expense of the requesting Participant, documents and testimony will be translated into the requesting Participant’s preferred language. All fees and costs of the mediation will be borne equally by the Participants in the mediation. c. No Participant in the mediation may disclose the existence, content, or results of the mediation without the prior written consent of all Participants. d. If the Participants in the mediation are satisfied with the results of the mediation, then the dispute is deemed resolved, and there is no need to proceed further. Furthermore, the Participants agree to comply with the mediated settlement. However, if any of the Participants in the mediation are not satisfied with the mediation, or there are issues of the dispute that remain unresolved, then the Participants may proceed to arbitration as set forth below in Section V.

G. Arbitration 1. Request for Arbitration

20

Within ten (10) business days from the date of the mediation, the Participant shall promptly notify all the other Participants in the mediation, in writing, that the Participant requests that the dispute be referred to arbitration before a neutral third party arbitrator (“Petition for Arbitration”). Failure to submit a timely Petition for Arbitration will constitute acceptance of the DCAC Decision and the distributor agrees to abide by its terms. Within a reasonable time after receipt of the Petition for Arbitration, Nu Skin, by and through its outside counsel, will contact all the Participants in the mediation regarding an arbitration date and provide a list of potential arbitrators

Policies & Procedures

2. Arbitration a. The arbitration will be conducted by a professional arbitrator that has been agreed to by the Participants. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court within the state of Utah. b. The arbitrator will have the discretion to order a pre-hearing exchange of information by the Participants, including but not limited to, production of requested documents, exchange of summaries of testimony of proposed witnesses, and the depositions of witnesses and the Participants. Additionally, subject to the approval of the selected arbitrator, the Participants may submit a pre-arbitration brief outlining the legal causes of action and factual background. c. The arbitration will be held Salt Lake City, Utah in the offices of Nu Skin’s outside counsel. The arbitration will take place no later than six months after the date of the Petition for Arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language, but at the request and expense of the requesting Participant, documents and testimonies shall be translated into the requesting Participant’s preferred language. d. The arbitration will be final and binding. It will be a full resolution of all claims and disputes between the Participants in the arbitration. All uplines and downlines of the Participants shall be bound by the final arbitration award. e. Each Participant in the arbitration is limited to the attendance of the Participant, those individuals appearing on the Participant’s Distributor Agreement, and no more than two attorneys per Participant. f. All fees and expenses of the arbitrator will be borne equally by the Participants in the arbitration. The arbitrator is authorised to award a Participant any sums that are deemed proper for the time, expense, and trouble of arbitration including arbitration fees and attorney’s fees. Punitive damages, however, shall not be allowed in any dispute. g. Except as may be required by law and Nu Skin’s use of an arbitrator’s award as precedence for deciding future disputes, neither a Participant nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of all the Participants.

Section 31: Headings The headings in the Contract are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms or provisions of the Contract.

Section 32: International Business A.

Prior to the official opening of an Authorised Country, permissible Distributor activity in an unopened country is limited to providing business cards and conducting, organising or participating in meetings where the number of attendees at any given meeting, including the Distributor, does not exceed five - Participants in such meetings must be personal acquaintances of the distributor or personal acquaintances of the distributor’s personal acquaintances in attendance at the meeting. The meetings must be held in a home or a public establishment but may not be held in a private hotel room. All cold calling techniques (soliciting persons who are not prior personal acquaintances of the contacting distributor) are strictly prohibited in unopened countries. The Company has limited retail store operations in China. However, the Company prohibits all direct selling activities in China and China is deemed an unopened direct selling country. Distributor pre-market opening conduct prohibited in all countries includes but is not limited to: 1. importing or facilitating the importation of, selling, gifting, or distributing in any manner, Company products, services, or product samples; 2. placing any type of advertisement or distributing any promotional materials regarding the Company, its products or the opportunity, except for the Company Approved Sales Aids (See Section 1) specifically authorised for distribution in unopened countries as designated by the Company; 3. soliciting or negotiating any agreement for the purpose of committing a citizen or resident of an unopened country to the opportunity, a specific Sponsor or specific line of sponsorship. Furthermore, Distributors may not sign up citizens or residents of unopened countries in an Authorised Country or by using Distributor Agreement forms from an Authorised Country, unless the citizen or resident of the unopened country has, at the time of sign up, permanent residence and the legal authorization to work in the Authorised Country. It is the sponsoring Distributor’s responsibility to ensure compliance with residency and work authorisation requirements. Membership or participation in, or ownership of a corporation, partnership or other legal entity in an Authorised Country does not by itself fulfil the residency or legal authorisation to work requirements. If a participant to a Distributorship fails to provide verification of residency and work authorisation when requested by the Company, the Company may, at its election, declare a Distributor Agreement void from its inception; 4. accepting money or other consideration, or being involved in any financial transaction with any potential Distributor either personally or through an agent, for purposes relating to Company products or the opportunity, including renting, leasing or purchasing facilities for the purpose of promoting or conducting Company-related business; 5. conducting, organising, or participating in meetings in an Authorised Country with citizens or residents from an unopened country where the number of attendees at the meeting, including the Distributor, exceeds five or the other activities prohibited by Section 33 take place. In conducting meetings in an Authorised Country with citizens or residents from an unopened country, the same guidelines must be followed as if the meeting were being held in an unopened country; or 6. promoting, facilitating or conducting any type of activity which exceeds the limitations set forth in these Policies and Procedures or which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems to be contradictory to the Company’s business or ethical interests in international expansion.

Policies & Procedures 21

B. China activities, including all meetings, are limited to those authorised by the Company under its retail store operations and policies. Participants in any meeting held in China must be personal acquaintances of the distributor who organised the meeting or personal acquaintances of those at the meeting. The meetings must be held in a home or other public establishment and not in a hotel room. All cold-calling techniques (soliciting non-personal acquaintances) are strictly prohibited in China. C.

The Company reserves the right to designate certain countries wherein all pre marketing conduct is expressly prohibited. It is the responsibility of each Distributor, prior to each instance of conducting pre-market opening activities in an unopened market, to verify through current contact with the Company that the country in which she plans to conduct those activities is not a prohibited country. A Distributor may obtain a list of prohibited countries and Company Approved Sales Aid materials to distribute in other unopened countries by calling Executive Support on 02 9491 0900.

D.

In addition to other remedies allowed by the Contract, a Distributor, who fails to comply with any provision of Section 33, may be prohibited from participating in the affected international market for a period deemed appropriate by the Company. This prohibition could include, but is not limited to the following: the Distributor may have no right to international distribution/sponsorship rights in the affected international market; the Distributor and the Distributor’s upline may not be entitled to Bonuses generated by the Distributor and the Distributor’s Downline Organisation in the respective international market. The Company, at its sole discretion and for the purpose of promoting ongoing support of new Distributors by upline Executive Distributors, may consider paying the fourth, fifth, and sixth generation Breakaway Bonuses on the Personal Sales Volume generated by the Distributor or the Distributor’s Downline in the affected international market. In addition, in all markets, for a period of up to one year, the Distributor may not be entitled to privileges traditionally afforded Distributors such as recognition at corporate events or in corporate literature, and receipt of new Distributor packets prior to the official opening of any new market.

E. A Distributor who has been unable to participate in a market because of non compliance with Section 33 of these Policies and Procedures, must petition the Company in writing for written permission to participate in the market after the period of prohibition has passed. F.

The provisions of Section 33 do not waive the Company’s rights as set forth elsewhere in these Policies and Procedures or in the Contract.
