Introduction. The "Supplier" listed above desires to market the availability of Supplier Locations on the Downstream Marketplace, as applicable. For purposes of this Agreement, "Supplier Locations" may include: (i) Supplier Locations owned and operated by Supplier or its affiliates, and/or (ii) Supplier Locations owned and operated by franchisees of Supplier or its affiliates. Supplier's use of Downstream Marketplace shall be referred to herein as the "Program". For clarity, the Program will include each product, service, promotion, or program elected by Supplier in Section 3 of the Sign-up sheet, as may be amended.
What we do. Downstream Systems, Inc. Dba Downstream ("Downstream") owns and operates the Downstream online marketplace platform, in each case, that connects Suppliers and Customers for purchasing of Supplier Products and Services. Downstream provides the Downstream online marketplace (the "Downstream Marketplace") using web-based technology that allows Customers to place orders for products and services by independent contractors ("Supplier"), or for drop-off disposal by Customers at a Supplier’s location. Downstream also provides and online platform using web-based technology that allows Suppliers to receive orders placed through the Downstream Marketplace by Customers, in order to fulfill such orders (the "Supplier App"). The Downstream Marketplace and Downstream Supplier App shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as the "Platform". Downstream Marketplace permits customers to view and search for the product and service offerings of Suppliers and/or place orders for products or services from Suppliers which Suppliers receive through the Supplier App; the Downstream software notifies Suppliers that an opportunity is available; after a Supplier communicates its acceptance of the opportunity, the Downstream software facilitates the Supplier’s completion of the task for the Customer. Downstream is not a supplier, waste hauler, collector, processor, or labor service; it is an online marketing and connection platform. |
2. Standard Procedures |
What you do. Supplier fulfills orders placed by Customers through the Platform and manages completion of orders through Scrappers or directly with Customers. Instead of collecting payment at the time of pickup, Supplier will charge the total sales price for each order (including all taxes, fees, and governmental charges) to an account you maintain for orders received through the platform.
Payment Schedule. On a regular cadence or as otherwise agreed to in writing, Downstream will settle Supplier's house account by paying the Supplier (1) the pre-tax total for all orders for the prior period, plus (2) the total amount of state and local sales, use or similar tax collected by Downstream from Customers on all such Orders (the "Collected Taxes"), less (3) the applicable Referral Fee (which is the Referral Fee that Downstream receives in exchange for promoting and featuring you and your location(s) on the Platform, as further set forth in the Section below), any subscription fees, and any other referral fees or other fees to which the Supplier agrees. Supplier is the "hauler", 'retailer", “service provider” or "broker" responsible for remitting all sales tax and other governmental charges. Supplier is also responsible for setting the price for each item or service to be made available on the Platform. Downstream acknowledges that Supplier is solely responsible for the prices of its listings, which may vary based on factors such as location, time of the year, or competition from other suppliers. Supplier will promptly notify Downstream of changes to the prices of its products or services so Downstream can communicate the most current pricing to customers unless the parties will have an integration that allows such pricing changes to be updated automatically on the Downstream Platform.
Referral fee is calculated as a percentage of the subtotal for each order placed on the Platform.
For the avoidance of doubt, Downstream reserves the right to change the Customer fees, including but not limited to a Delivery Fee, Service Fee, Surcharge Fee, and Small Order Fee where applicable. |

Downstream's Drop-off Disposal Program is a program that allows Customers to place Orders for Supplier's disposal services through the Downstream Marketplace and drop-off such materials at the Supplier's Location (the "Drop-off Disposal Program"). If eligible to participate in the Drop-off Disposal Program, as determined solely by Downstream, Supplier will: (1) accept all Customer order placed by Downstream that are in general compliance with Supplier's standard operating procedures and operating hours; (ii) use its standard business practices to direct the customer to the proper disposal locations for each Customer order for drop-off at the Supplier Location; and (iii) promptly notify Downstream of any generally applicable changes to the pricing, availability, description, or other characteristics of the Supplier products and services; and (iv) once Downstream enables the ability for Supplier to set different prices for Supplier Products under the drop-off disposal program than the prices of the same Supplier product or service for drop-off (a) at location (b) on any other third party waste ordering or hauling platform. Downstream will apply the Drop-off Disposal Referral Fee set forth above on orders placed by Customers under the Drop-off Disposal Program.
