Exhibit A
Traffic & Quality Standards
This Exhibit A sets forth the minimum standards for Traffic provided by Supplier under the Master Supply Agreement ("Agreement"). All capitalized terms have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.
1. General Standard
All Traffic must represent a genuine, voluntary, and informed consumer inquiry for the specific product or service being marketed, generated without deception, coercion, or misrepresentation.
Traffic that technically delivers, connects, or meets duration thresholds may still be Invalid Traffic if it fails to meet these standards.
2. Lead Standards
A Lead is considered potentially Valid Traffic only if:
- The consumer personally and knowingly submitted their information
- The Lead reflects current and accurate consumer intent
- Required data fields are complete and materially accurate
- The Lead was not generated through misleading claims, false urgency, or bait-and-switch tactics
- The consumer was not incentivized unless expressly approved in writing
Leads generated through recycled data, scraped data, purchased lists, or aged databases are Invalid Traffic.
3. Call Standards
A Call is considered potentially Valid Traffic only if:
- The call was consumer-initiated
- The consumer had a reasonable expectation of being connected regarding the advertised product or service
- The call was not auto-dialed, spoofed, pre-recorded, or artificially generated
- The consumer was not misled as to the nature of the call or the party being contacted
Call duration, connection, or completion does not override compliance failures.
4. Transfer Standards
A Transfer is considered potentially Valid Traffic only if:
- The consumer expressly consented to being transferred
- The consumer's stated intent matches the destination service
- The transfer does not misrepresent pricing, availability, outcomes, or qualifications
- The transfer does not generate buyer complaints or regulatory exposure
Any Transfer that misrepresents consumer intent or creates downstream risk is Invalid Traffic regardless of duration.
5. Hire Best Pros Discretion
Hire Best Pros retains sole discretion to determine whether Traffic meets the standards of this Exhibit A.
Supplier bears the burden of proving compliance upon request.
Exhibit B
Prohibited Practices & Traffic Sources
The following practices are strictly prohibited and constitute a material breach of the Agreement. This list is illustrative and not exhaustive.
1. Prohibited Generation Methods
Supplier may not generate Traffic using:
- Robocalls, auto-dialers, or artificial call initiation
- Call spoofing or caller ID manipulation
- Incentivization of any kind unless approved in writing
- Misleading creatives, false claims, or unsubstantiated promises
- Fake forms, pre-filled fields, or deceptive UX
- Scraped, purchased, rented, or third-party lists
- Bots, scripts, emulators, or simulated user behavior
2. Prohibited Content & Representation
Traffic may not be generated through creatives or messaging that:
- Imply guarantees, outcomes, or endorsements
- Misstate pricing, urgency, or availability
- Misrepresent Hire Best Pros, its buyers, or the nature of the service

- Suggest affiliation, partnership, or official endorsement where none exists
3. Prohibited Sources

- Spam-oriented placements or deceptive redirects
- Any source prohibited by applicable law or regulation
- Any source previously flagged by Hire Best Pros
4. Sub-Publishers & Call Centers
Supplier is fully responsible for all sub-publishers, affiliates, agents, call centers, and technology used.
Violations by any upstream or downstream party are deemed violations by Supplier.
5. Zero-Tolerance Practices
Any Traffic associated with the following is automatically Invalid Traffic:
- TCPA violations
- Privacy law violations
- Consumer legal complaints
- Regulatory inquiries tied to Supplier traffic
Exhibit C
Payment, Returns & Invalidation Mechanics
This Exhibit governs billing, payment eligibility, and invalidation mechanics under the Agreement.
1. Payment Eligibility
Payment is owed only for Valid Traffic as determined by Hire Best Pros.
Traffic later determined to be Invalid Traffic is not payable, regardless of prior acceptance, reporting, or payment status.
2. Compliance Overrides Accounting
Compliance failures, consumer claims, buyer complaints, or regulatory risk override:
- duration thresholds
- delivery confirmation
- invoice timing
- reporting acceptance
3. Retroactive Invalidation
Hire Best Pros may retroactively invalidate Traffic at any time if:
- fraud is discovered
- misrepresentation is identified
- a consumer asserts legal rights
- a buyer makes a compliance-based claim
- regulatory or carrier risk arises
There is no time limitation on retroactive invalidation for compliance-related issues.
4. Withholding, Offsets & Clawbacks
Hire Best Pros may, at its discretion:
- withhold payment

Supplier shall remit repayment upon demand. Failure to do so constitutes a material breach.
