21 - 25% 5% F - 10%
NOTE:
Discounts of 26 -50% are subject to a 5% commission. This would include the
"Sling Trade-In" program that is offered from time to time for competitive
reasons and to retain our existing customer base.
We understand that you are all professionals and do not discount unnecessarily,
but we know there are times when it is justified when faced with "price only"
considerations. This new and revised commission structure represents a much more
equitable financial benefit for our valued sale representatives, while ensuring
that Medi-Man will be competitive in the U.S. healthcare market place.

BONUS PROGRAM
The Medi-Man Bonus Program is a lucrative incentive program designed to motivate
and reward our sales partners. We have intentionally set the bonus sales figures
so they are readily achievable, and yet, they afford us some cushion against
paying a very large commission for what amounts to a lower sales volume.
Each territory and sales representative will be treated individually depending
upon the unique circumstances prevailing at the time of starting with Medi-Man.
Unique circumstances will entail bed count relative to our products, previous
penetration of Medi-Man products, experience, knowledge and background of each
representative and so forth.
The Bonus Program is annualized, although paid monthly when achieved in any
given month. There may be start up months where the bonus is not achieved; this
business is not lost, but will accrue throughout the year. Bonus will be paid
retroactive to the start date of the program if the annualized sales figures
exceed the minimum predetermined qualifying sales figures.
In all probability the minimum bonus sales target will be lower than the sales
target required to maintain the exclusive rights to Medi-Man products within
your respective territory. In other words you may well achieve bonus status but
fall short of the required sales figures to continue as a Medi-Man
representative. This situation of course will be monitored throughout the year
to prevent such a situation, which is not in the best interest of either party.
Medi-Man Rehabilitation Products Inc. Reserves the right to modify or
discontinue the Bonus Program after any years completion.
