NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

MSO DEALER and DSI will reasonably cooperate to obtain the EVO and FCO information that any Commercial Establishment fails to provide in a timely manner, and MSO DEALER shall have the affirmative obligation to verify such EVO or FCO information, as applicable, for each Order if such information is provided to the MSO DEALER by the Commercial Subscriber. MSO DEALER’s failure to deliver to DSI/DIRECTV such EVO or FCO information in a timely manner, or MSO DEALER’s failure to verify such information as provided by the Commercial Subscriber, shall be a material breach of this Agreement.

2.2 ONGOING SERVICE OBLIGATIONS.

(c) MSO DEALER shall contact the Commercial Establishment within 48 hours of the initial installation to ensure that the DIRECTV System equipment is operating properly and to answer any additional questions.

(d) MSO DEALER shall visit each MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber that is a Public Viewing Location no less than two (2) times a year to (i) ensure customer satisfaction, (ii) verify the current FCO and/or EVO information, (iii) introduce new DIRECTV Services and (iv) solicit renewals and upgrades to DIRECTV Programming Packages. MSO DEALER shall maintain a record of all visits to each MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber.

(e) MSO DEALER shall maintain the phone/answering system requirements and follow the service response requirements set forth on Schedule 2.2 attached hereto, as amended by DSI from time to time (the “Service Response Requirements”).

(f) MSO DEALER may be required by DSI/DIRECTV to provide occasional, non-compensatory service related to the DIRECTV System (i.e., DSI/DIRECTV Receiver re-tuning due to channel position realignment, access card switch-outs, etc.). DSI/DIRECTV shall provide MSO DEALER with reasonable notice of such necessary “across-the-board” changes and shall provide MSO DEALER with a reasonable period of time to complete such service.

MSO DEALER’s silence shall constitute approval of such other work as fit, proper and suitable for MSO DEALER’s performance of its services or provision of material. Any use of, including any changes to the use of, a subcontractor must be approved by DSI in writing before commencement of the work. MSO DEALER shall provide to DSI, upon request, information about the subcontractor including the identity of, the location of, and a complete description of the activities to be performed by such subcontractor.

As used herein, Prepaid Programming Commissions, Bonus Amounts and Continuing Service Commissions shall be referred to collectively as “Compensation.” MSO DEALER acknowledges that MSO DEALER’s failure to properly follow DSI’s Order Procedures can prevent any such Orders from being considered an Activation for purposes of earning Compensation, regardless of whether DIRECTV activates a DIRECTV Programming Package. DSI’s determination of whether DSIs Order Procedures have been properly observed shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, DSI shall not be required to pay any Compensation for:

(i) any Commercial Establishment which is a National Account or Potential National Account

(ii) any Order canceled prior to the commencement of service;

(iv) any Order if a MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber’s DIRECTV Service to which such Order relates is terminated, canceled or disconnected (whether initiated by the MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber or DIRECTV) within thirty (30) days of the date of Activation; or

(v) any DIRECTV Programming Package sold to a residential household, residential consumer, multiple dwelling unit residential property owner or resident, satellite master antenna television delivered recipient or any other person or establishment that is not a Commercial Establishment; or

(vi) Orders for DIRECTV Programming Packages delivered to DSI after termination of this Agreement.

(b) DSI shall not be required to pay any Compensation on account of payments received by DIRECTV from MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscribers after the termination of this Agreement, except as provided in Section 13.1.

6.4 CHARGEBACKS.

All Prepaid Programming Commissions are based upon a full uninterrupted purchase of the DIRECTV Programming Package by the MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber, and are subject to chargeback if a Chargeback Event occurs within certain periods prescribed by DIRECTV (the “Chargeback Periods”), as set forth in Schedule 6.4. A “Chargeback Event” shall be deemed to have occurred if, during the applicable Chargeback Period (i) a MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber (whether initiated by the MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber or DIRECTV) terminates, cancels or disconnects DIRECTV Service, (ii) the MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber downgrades the DIRECTV Programming Package, or (iii) the MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber fails to pay DIRECTV for the DIRECTV Programming Package for which MSO DEALER was paid a Prepaid Programming Commission during the entire Chargeback Period. If a Chargeback Event occurs, DSI may chargeback to MSO DEALER all or a portion of the Prepaid Programming Commission in accordance with the chargeback rules, which may be amended from time to time by DIRECTV.

6.5 CHANGES.

MSO DEALER acknowledges that the market for multi-channel video and entertainment services is competitive and unpredictable and that DIRECTV may need to adapt its marketing cost structure to changing conditions from time to time. Accordingly, DSI may change the Prepaid Programming Commissions, Bonus Amounts, Continuing Service Commissions, Receiver Buydown Payments and any

Page 12: MSO Dealer Agreement Cover Sheet - DSI Systems | Home · 1 Commercial Express Dealer Agreement Cover Sheet Please attach this sheet to ALL COMMERCIAL EXPRESS faxes DSI Account Manager:

other compensation or the terms and conditions of chargebacks at any time, and from time to time, in its discretion; provided that:

(a) DSI shall give MSO DEALER at least thirty (30) days prior notice of the effective date of any such change;

(b) a change in the Prepaid Programming Commissions and Bonus Amounts or the terms and conditions of chargebacks shall be effective only with respect to Orders transmitted to DSI after the effective date of the change;

(c) a change in the Continuing Service Commissions shall be effective only with respect to MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber payments received by DIRECTV after the effective date of the change (whether such payments are for Orders previously accepted by DIRECTV or for Orders accepted after the change); and

(d) MSO DEALER may terminate this Agreement by written notice to DSI, delivered no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the change notice.

6.6 PAYMENT TERMS.

MSO DEALER shall provide information and execute any documents necessary to enable DSI to remit electronically any amounts payable to MSO DEALER in accordance with this Agreement. DSI reserves the right to withhold any amounts payable to MSO DEALER, until MSO DEALER has submitted such necessary documents. DSI shall pay MSO DEALER the Prepaid Programming Commissions and Bonus Amounts within sixty-five (65) days after the end of the accounting month in which the Activation occurs, as determined by DIRECTV. DSI shall pay MSO DEALER the Continuing Service Commissions within sixty-five (65) days after the end of the accounting month in which DIRECTV receives the applicable payment from a MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber, as determined by DIRECTV. In no event shall DSI be required to pay Compensation until such time as accrued unpaid amounts total at least $50. From time to time, DSI may make payments on a weekly or other basis. The Parties hereto agree and acknowledge that no expedited payments made by DSI shall obligate DSI to continue to do so or shall be construed to amend or modify the payment terms expressly set forth herein. In addition, in lieu of requiring MSO DEALER to remit to DSI any amounts collected by MSO DEALER on behalf of DSI/DIRECTV, DSI shall have the right to offset such amount against any Compensation payable to MSO DEALER. Any disputes regarding Compensation or any other amounts owed to MSO DEALER by DSI shall be submitted in writing to DSI no later than ninety (90) days of payment by DSI. MSO DEALER acknowledges that no reconciliation will be made following such 90-day period, and MSO DEALER hereby waives any claims regarding Compensation or any other amounts owed to MSO DEALER following such 90-day period. MSO DEALER shall have the right, once per calendar year, to request a schedule of the Compensation earned by MSO DEALER during the prior twelve month period.

6.7 SHARING COMPENSATION PROHIBITED.

MSO DEALER shall not rebate or share any Compensation with any other third party, including any authorized MSO DEALER or sales agent of DSI/DIRECTV. MSO DEALER may not combine any National Commercial Offer transactions with another agent/MSO DEALER/retailer. MSO DEALER acknowledges that any Orders submitted under another entity or person’s account number or through such other entity or person’s electronic interface with DSI shall not be credited to MSO DEALER for purposes of calculating Compensation

In addition, DSI may set-off or recoup any amounts owed to it by MSO DEALER, or by MSO DEALER’s subsidiaries and affiliates, pursuant to this or any other agreement with DSI, and any damages suffered by DSI due to MSO DEALER’s breach hereof or other misconduct, against any amounts DSI owes to MSO DEALER.

In no case shall any (i) single family res residential household (i.e., single-family houses, apartments, condominiums, trailers, recreational vehicles or other dwelling units used primarily for residential purposes), or (ii) any satellite master antenna television or private cable system in a commercial or residential multiple dwelling unit (i.e., hotels, hospitals, dormitories, etc.) be considered a Commercial Establishment; provided, however, that Commercial Establishments within such multiple dwelling units (e.g., bars or restaurants within a hotel) shall still be considered Commercial Establishments. For purposes of this Agreement, “Commercial Establishments” shall consist of Public Viewing Locations, Business Viewing Locations and Private Offices (except where such term is used in the definitions of such locations and offices). DIRECTV shall have the right to determine, in its reasonable discretion, whether a Commercial Establishment constitutes a Public Viewing Location, Business Viewing Location, Private Office or none of the foregoing under the applicable terms of this Agreement. 1.5 “Commercial Subscribers” shall mean those Commercial Establishments authorized by DIRECTV to receive DIRECTV Service, including those activated following an Order by MSO DEALER or those activated independently of MSO DEALER. 1.6 “MSO DEALER-Acquired Subscriber” means a Commercial Establishment located in the Territory (i) which has not previously received any DIRECTV Service at such Commercial Establishment at any time during the previous two (2) years (or such other period of time set forth in DIRECTV’s then-current standard policies and procedures), (ii) which is not a National Account or Potential National Account (iii) which has activated a DIRECTV Programming Package following the submission of an Order by MSO DEALER, (iv) for which MSO DEALER validly submits such initial Order to DSI in accordance with the Order Procedures (v) which makes the time-period commitment set forth in DIRECTV’s then-current standard policies and procedures to subscribe to a DIRECTV Programming Package (including, if applicable, the National Commercial Offer requirements), and (vi) which meets any other standard DIRECTV eligibility requirements, including all requirements in order for MSO DEALER to be able to submit an Order.

SCHEDULE 2.6 TELEMARKETING POLICY

DSI/DIRECTV POLICY

FOR COMMERCIAL ACCOUNT TELEMARKETING The information provided in this Commercial Telemarketing Policy is in summary

form only and is not intended to provide legal advice or counsel, nor is it an exhaustive list of all laws and regulations applicable to your activities. Legal requirements may differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and are constantly evolving. You are solely and independently responsible for complete compliance with, and consequences of noncompliance with, applicable laws and regulations. Therefore, it is imperative that you consult your legal counsel for full details on the requirements of all applicable marketing laws and regulations before undertaking any marketing campaign.

Please review this Policy carefully. You (including your employees) are expected to

know and comply with all marketing laws applicable to your activities. DIRECTV’s policy is to adhere to all laws and regulations, including those relating to marketing

activities, and to conduct marketing activities in a respectful manner that does not impugn DSI/DIRECTV’s reputation and goodwill. Each MSO Dealer is responsible for making sure that its own marketing activities conform to the law and are conducted respectfully. You must take all steps necessary to tailor your marketing efforts to conform to the law and DIRECTV’s policies.

MSO Dealers are independent contractors and must properly identify themselves in all activities, and cannot hold themselves out as DSI/DIRECTV. In making any outbound or taking any inbound calls, retailers cannot state that they are calling or answering calls "on behalf of" DSI/DIRECTV. You are not authorized to hold yourself out as an agent of DSI/DIRECTV.

DSI maintains the right to immediately terminate its Agreement with any MSO Dealer that DSI believes, in its sole discretion, may have breached the Agreement, violated DIRECTV’s policies, or otherwise engaged in illegal, objectionable, inappropriate, or otherwise forbidden marketing activities. DSI will also immediately terminate the Agreement of any MSO Dealer found to have made misrepresentations to DSI/DIRECTV about its marketing activities.

Business to Business (B2B) Telemarketing

The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. § 227 et. seq., (“TCPA”) places restrictions

on the use of telephone equipment to market or promote products and services. Numerous states have

adopted statutes modeled after or more restrictive than the TCPA, each with its own penalty scheme.

Both the FCC and FTC have federal enforcement responsibilities in connection with telemarketing

activities. The Rules adopted by both agencies focus primarily on telemarketing to consumers,

residential phone numbers and cellular phones. Nevertheless, certain restrictions do apply to B2B

telemarketing, and DSI/DIRECTV as a company disapproves of certain other telemarketing activities

in connection with B2B telemarketing.

Page 32: MSO Dealer Agreement Cover Sheet - DSI Systems | Home · 1 Commercial Express Dealer Agreement Cover Sheet Please attach this sheet to ALL COMMERCIAL EXPRESS faxes DSI Account Manager:

Following are DIRECTV’s specific policies and guidelines regarding outbound B2B telemarketing, but you are required to review the TCPA and FCC and FTC Rules to ensure compliance with all aspects applicable to B2B calls:

“Live operator” outbound telemarketing calls.

DIRECTV will permit MSO Dealers to make outbound B2B telemarketing calls by “live operator” so long as such calls are in full compliance with the TCPA, applicable FCC and/or FTC rules, any applicable State laws, and DIRECTV’s guidelines stated herein. MSO Dealers must take care to assemble call lists that contain only land-line Business telephone numbers. Calls to residential telephone lines and calls to cellular phones are not permitted. The TCPA prohibits any calls to emergency lines and guest rooms. Therefore, MSO Dealers must ensure that no such numbers are on call lists. Particular care must be taken if a MSO Dealer intends to make calls to hospitals, medical offices, health care facilities, fire or police departments, and hotels, motels, retirement homes and so forth. MSO Dealers may not use auto-dialers in a way that could tie up two or more lines of a multi-line business. MSO Dealers must properly and at the outset identify themselves and not indicate or suggest that they are “DSI/DIRECTV.” Out of respect for the businesses called, and in furtherance of your reputation and goodwill, as well as the reputation and goodwill of the “DSI/DIRECTV” brand, MSO Dealers must also be courteous, honest and ethical, avoid calling on holidays or outside of normal business hours, and if requested by the business not to be called again, maintain a list of such “Do Not Call” requests that is scrubbed before implementing additional B2B telemarketing campaigns. Before undertaking any Commercial, B2B telemarketing campaign, the MSO Dealer must submit a copy of its telemarketing plan to DSI/DIRECTV. Such plan must include the following:

- a list of all States in which B2B telemarketing is planned to take place, along with a sworn statement that the laws of such States have been reviewed to ensure compliance with particular State telemarketing laws applicable to B2B calls; if any such State laws require registration and/or purchase of a State “Do Not Call” database to conduct B2B telemarketing, a separate sworn statement of compliance with all such registration and/or purchase and DNC scrubbing requirements;

- all scripts to be used in the B2B telemarketing campaign; - copies of materials used to train the live operators who will be making the calls (such

materials should address proper business identification, courteous treatment of prospects, honesty and ethics, appropriate call times and honoring Do Not Call requests from Commercial prospects);

- if auto-dialers are to be used, a description of how calls to multiple phone lines of one business are avoided and how all applicable “call abandonment” Rules are implemented and honored;

Facsimile advertising is a form of outbound telemarketing solicitation that is expressly disapproved of for ANY use in advertising “DIRECTV” branded products and services. In addition, it is considered a violation of this Commercial Telemarketing Policy for any independent MSO Dealer to use facsimile advertising in connection with any “satellite television” product if such advertisement is likely to

lead to confusion and the mistaken belief that such advertising relates to DIRECTV-brand products or services.

Pre-recorded messages (including text and/or SMS messagesi).

Pre-recorded message and text/SMS advertising is also a form of outbound telemarketing solicitation that is expressly disapproved of for ANY use in advertising “DIRECTV” branded products and services. In addition, it is considered a violation of this Commercial Telemarketing Policy for any independent MSO Dealer to use pre-recorded message advertising in connection with any “satellite television” product if such advertisement is likely to lead to confusion and the mistaken belief that such advertising relates to DIRECTV-brand products or services.

Returning Calls to Prospective Commercial Customers

Return calls must be made with a live operator; no pre-recorded messages, including “Press 1” or other approaches, should be used.

In addition, the FCC announced stricter rules under the TCPA in 2012, particularly as it relates to calls to cellular phones. From time to time, a representative at a prospective Commercial Account may provide a cellular phone as a preferred method of contact. However, the new FCC rules do not allow telemarketing calls to be made using automatic dialing equipment to cellular phones absent proof of WRITTEN consent (ESIGN compliant proof may constitute written consent). Therefore, best practices suggest screening for cellular phones and having operators initiate manually dialed calls to cellular phone numbers provided by prospects, to avoid potential problems in demonstrating written consent.

If automatic dialing equipment is to be used to return calls to prospective Commercial Account representatives at a cellular phone, special steps must be taken to avoid violations. First, return calls shall not be made with automatic dialing equipment to any number simply “captured” through a caller ID or other system. Return calls may only be placed to cellular phone numbers provided by Commercial Account representatives who talked to an agent and provided clear consent to future calls at the cellular number.

Second, because using automatic dialing equipment to make telemarketing calls to cellular phones requires WRITTEN consent, calls in which consent is obtained must be recorded and stored to maintain ESIGN proof of consent. Either all calls need to be recorded and preserved, or, policies and procedures could be developed for identifying cellular telephones (including asking the Commercial Account representative if the number they are providing is a cellular number) and recording and maintaining written consents only insofar as cellular phones are concerned.

No Third Party Solicitors/Marketing Agents

Your Agreement with DSI does not allow the use of third parties to solicit sales absent express written approval of DIRECTV. Approval must be given by both the Vice President – Sales and Director, Business Affairs. No other employee is authorized to provide approval, written or otherwise. You are not authorized to use any agent, independent contractor or any other third party to conduct marketing campaigns as addressed in this Policy. In the event that DSI/DIRECTV suspects you are using a third party to telemarket, DSI may immediately terminate your Agreement. * * * * * *

While telemarketing may be an effective means of reaching new Commercial prospects, care must be taken to ensure compliance. Please proceed responsibly, in accordance with the law and DSI/DIRECTV’s Commercial Telemarketing Policy, and only after consultation with your own legal counsel. Thank you in advance for your attention to these matters and for your responsible

i Outbound call lists for B2B calls shall only contain land-based business telephone lines. But to be clear, text and SMS messages are not permitted.
