Anti Aging Bed requires that specific terms of sale be included in any sales agreement. Such terms and a sample sales agreement may be obtained from Anti Aging Bed.

6.11. Parent-Child Integration: As part of a plan to ensure the continuity of HBB owned by parents and children ("Succession Plan"), parent and children A2Bs may integrate their respective HBB, provided that they submit a written request to Anti Aging Bed and meet the following:
a) the child(ren) must be personally registered by the parents; or the parents must be personally registered by the child(ren);
b) the parent’s HBB and the child’s (children’s) HBB must have operated as a separate HBB for not less than 2 years by date of implementation;
c) the parent and the child(ren) shall be qualified at the level of Partner or above as of the implementation date;
d) in the event that the parent(s) or the child(ren) is deceased or are not mentally or physically capable of running the HBB before conditions b and c above have occurred, the child(ren) or parent(s) inheriting the HBB shall have the right to integrate the separate HBB in accordance with this Rule;
Once the above conditions have been met, the Mediators shall review such request and provide decision makers at Anti Aging Bed with a recommendation. Anti Aging Bed may or may not approve the request in light of such recommendation, the Succession Plan, and the goals, objectives, and benefits of the Plan. The implementation of the integration or de-integration shall be on September 1 after at least one full fiscal year has passed since Anti Aging Bed expressly approved the request in writing.
6.12. Divorce, Separation, or Other Dissolution of a Non-Spousal Partnership or Legal Entity: A2Bs who become involved in an action for divorce, separation of marital property, or the dissolution of a non-spousal partnership or legal entity formed under Rule 3.3, must continue to conduct themselves in compliance with the Rules of Conduct.
6.12.1. During the pendency of a divorce, separation of marital property or dissolution of a non-spousal partnership or legal entity, the A2Bs must adopt one of the following methods of operation: (a) the A2Bs continue to operate the HBB jointly on a "business-as-usual" basis; (b) one or more A2Bs relinquishes his or her right and interest in the HBB; (c) the A2Bs may agree on a third party to operate the HBB, subject to express approval of Anti Aging Bed in writing; or (d) if the A2Bs cannot agree on a third party, Anti Aging Bed shall appoint a third party to act as a receiver during the pendency of the divorce or dissolution if Anti Aging Bed determines that such an appointment is necessary to prevent a negative impact on the business.
6.12.2. After a Final Decree or Judgment of Divorce, a Final Separation Agreement or other domestic contract that contains a legally enforceable Property Settlement or Division of Assets that addresses their HBB, or after a final dissolution of a non-spousal partnership or legal entity, A2Bs may: (a) agree to continue to operate their HBB in the form of a partnership or other legal entity permitted under Rule 3.3; or (b) agree that one A2B may relinquish all rights in the original HBB to the other A2B(s), at which time the withdrawing A2B is free to immediately register under any sponsor.
6.12.3. A2Bs below the level of qualified Partner level may not divide their HBB in the case of a divorce, separation of marital property or other dissolution.
6.12.4. Upon approval by Anti Aging Bed following submission of a signed written request, A2Bs who are qualified at the Partner level may divide their HBB so that one of the A2Bs is the sponsor of the other A2B. In such a case, recognized by Anti Aging Bed as 25% Sponsor or above within the past one year will remain registered under the Bonus A2Bs. Bonus A2B(s) who wish to change their positions in the Entrepreneur Program must follow the requirements of the Individual or Group Transfer Rules at Rules 6.5 and 6.6, respectively.
6.12.5. Qualified Partners or above at the time of divorce, separation of marital property or dissolution may divide their HBB, thereby creating two separate HBB, one of which is sponsored by the other, in which case a "phantom HBB" will be imposed over their separate HBB. Under the "phantom HBB" arrangement, regardless of how the parties may split their HBB, their separate HBB will be considered a single HBB for purposes of determining bonuses to be paid to upline A2Bs. The parties will function as two separate A2Bs so far as themselves, their respective HBB, and their respective sponsored A2Bs are concerned. The HBB of one A2B is not permitted to earn a Bonus or a Bonus on the volume of the HBB of the other A2B. Even though the original HBB is divided into two separate HBB, Anti Aging Bed may, if the A2Bs request, recognize both newly created HBB as a single entity for purposes of determining annual bonuses. Thus, the "phantom HBB" arrangement continues the previously existing HBB for purposes of calculating and paying higher award level bonuses to the A2Bs of the original HBB. If one A2B registers another A2B of the original HBB, the Bonus A2B at maximum Bonus level may count as a recognition only purpose. Anti Aging Bed will issue all annual bonus checks in the joint names of the A2Bs of the original HBB, leaving it to them to determine how the funds are to be divided. Whenever an Partner or above HBB is divided, the A2Bs of the original HBB may rely on their former pin level to meet the requisite pin-level qualification for an invitation to Anti Aging Bed-sponsored events for one fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the divorce, separation or marital property or other dissolution occurred. Once an HBB has been divided into two HBB, the new HBB will no longer be considered as a single combined HBB for purposes of future higher pin/award recognition, but each separate HBB must thereafter qualify on its own. To effect a division of the HBB and to permit the A2Bs to operate separate HBB, the A2Bs must file a certified copy of the Final Decree or Judgment of Divorce, a Final Separation Agreement or other domestic contract that contains a legally enforceable Property Settlement or Division of Assets that addresses their HBB, or a final Dissolution Agreement, and any additional documents requested by Anti Aging Bed.
6.13. Disposition of an HBB: If an A2B resigns, fails to renew, terminates his or her HBB, dies without transferring the HBB, or is terminated by Anti Aging Bed, Anti Aging Bed shall decide the future of the HBB in accordance with these Rules.

These time periods may be shortened when it is necessary for a particular change to comply with a new law or other government mandate, to protect A2Bs from serious financial harm, or to protect the integrity of the Plan. Rule changes have prospective effect only.
10.3. Prior to the effective date of any proposed Rule change, any A2B who is unwilling to accept a Rule change can, if he or she wishes, provide notice of his/her intent to resign from the Anti Aging Bed business on the effective date of the Rule change. Unless the proposed Rule change is withdrawn, the A2B’s resignation will become effective, and Anti Aging Bed will refund a pro rata share of the A2B’s registration or renewal fee for that year. The resigning A2B may sell his or her HBB in accordance with Rule 6.8. In addition, the resigning A2B can return any unused, marketable products pursuant to Rule 4.10.
11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
Disputes arising out of or relating to an HBB, the Plan or the A2B Contract, as well as disputes involving Training Materials ("Disputes") shall be resolved in accordance with this Rule. The dispute resolution procedures in this Rule apply to Disputes involving the following parties: (1) an A2B, a former A2B, or any such A2B’s officers, directors, agents, or employees; (2) Anti Aging Bed, JRB Enterprise Group Inc, and any parent, subsidiary, affiliate, predecessor, or successor thereof, or any of their officers, directors, agents, or employees; and (3) an Approved Provider or its officers, directors, agents, or employees (the "Party" or "Parties"). Rule 11 is reciprocal and applies to all of the Parties.
The only exception is when the claim made by an A2B or Anti Aging Bed is for a debt on account for product or services offered through or by Anti Aging Bed to or on behalf of the A2B, and the only Parties to that claim are Anti Aging Bed and the A2B, and the total value of the claim is less than $10,000.00. In such cases the A2B or Anti Aging Bed may elect to pursue the claim in any court of competent jurisdiction including small claims court. In all other cases the Parties will resolve the dispute as provided for under these Rules, up to and including binding arbitration if necessary.
11.1. Amendment Only with Consent: This Rule 11 and its subparts shall be amended only by mutual agreement between Anti Aging Bed and the Mediators, and such amendments shall not be retroactively applied to any dispute known to Anti Aging Bed or the Mediators at the time of amendment.
11.2. Temporary or Preliminary Injunctive Relief: Nothing in these Rules prevents Anti Aging Bed, an A2B, Approved Provider or any other one of the Parties from seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive or other relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the Parties’ obligation to participate in Conciliation or Arbitration under Rule 11.
11.3. Confidentiality: The Parties, when involved in the dispute resolution process in any manner, will not disclose to any other person not directly involved in the dispute resolution process: (a) the substance of, or basis for, the Dispute; (b) the content of any testimony or other information obtained through the dispute resolution process; or (c) the resolution (whether voluntary or not) of any matter that is subject to the dispute resolution process. However, nothing in these Rules shall preclude any one of the Parties from, in good faith, investigating a claim or defense, including interviewing witnesses and otherwise engaging in discovery.
11.4. Conciliation: The Conciliation procedures are designed to resolve disputes efficiently in a non-confrontational setting, through education, mediation, and conciliation. The Conciliation requirement is reciprocal and applies to all Parties. The Party first seeking resolution shall commence Conciliation by providing a Request for Conciliation form to the other affected Parties and, in any Dispute, the Anti Aging Bed Business Conduct and Rules Department. In cases where the Mediators will be involved in the Conciliation, a copy of the Request for Conciliation form will also be given to the Mediators and the Mediators Hearing Panel Chairperson.
11.4.1. Mediation: The first step in Conciliation is non-binding mediation. The Mediators provides experienced A2Bs who are available to serve as mediators ("Board Mediator").
11.4.1.1. In cases where an Approved Provider is not a Party, an Board Mediator will serve and conduct an informal conciliation with the Parties, unless one or more A2Bs involved in the dispute objects to an Board Mediator. In that case, the mediation will take place with an independent neutral mediator acceptable to all Parties. Anti Aging Bed can provide a list of possible mediators, but the Parties are not obligated to agree to any mediator on that list.
11.4.1.2. In cases where an Approved Provider is a Party, the dispute will be mediated by an independent neutral mediator acceptable to all Parties, unless all of the Parties involved in the dispute stipulate to informal conciliation with an Board Mediator. Anti Aging Bed can provide a list of possible mediators, but the Parties are not obligated to agree to any mediator on that list.
11.4.1.3. In all instances where the Parties cannot agree on a mediator within ten business days of receiving the Request for Conciliation form, they authorize Anti Aging Bed to request the American Arbitration Association (AAA) to select a mediator.
11.4.1.4. Anti Aging Bed will pay the reasonable fees of the mediator for up to one full day, except that if an Approved Provider is a Party, the Approved Provider is responsible for its pro rata share of the mediator’s fee.
11.4.1.5. The mediation shall take place within 30 days of selection of a mediator. The Parties may agree to extend this date by 30 days. In addition, on a request of a Party, the mediator may extend the deadline for not more than an additional 30 days. All Parties must appear in person or, if authorized by the mediator, by telephone.
11.4.1.6. The mediation proceeding is confidential and not open to the public; but any participant may, if he or she chooses, be accompanied by an attorney or another personal representative, such as an upline A2B or a friend or family member, as long as the representative agrees to respect the confidentiality of the process.
11.4.1.7. All Parties who receive notice of the mediation are required to participate. The Parties are strongly encouraged to attend the mediation in person, but are not required to do so. Should the Parties choose to attend in person, they are responsible for their own expenses. Failure by Anti Aging Bed or any disputing A2B to participate in good faith is a breach of the A2B Contract, and the breaching Party shall reimburse the other Parties for any expense directly caused by the breach, as determined by the mediator.
11.4.1.8. The mediator shall within two weeks following the mediation provide the Parties with a written statement summarizing any agreement between the Parties resolving their disputes and, for any dispute not settled, declaring that the Parties are at impasse. The mediator may, at his/her discretion, recommend a resolution for any dispute not settled in the mediation. Within two weeks of receiving this summary, each Party shall state in writing whether or not it agrees with any recommendation by the mediator, in whole or in part.
11.4.2. Hearing Panel Procedures: If any part of the dispute is not resolved by mediation under Rule 11.4.1, any A2B who is a Party to the remaining dispute may request a Hearing Panel; except that any dispute involving an Approved Provider, or any challenge to the impartiality of the Hearing Panel itself, shall go directly to arbitration without a Hearing Panel.
11.4.2.1. A Request for Hearing Panel Form must be filed with the Business Conduct and Rules Department or the Hearing Panel Chairperson within four weeks after the mediator’s written statement pursuant to Rule 11.4.1.8. Upon receipt of a request, the matter is scheduled for the next Hearing Panel session, which shall be not more than 60 days following the request. All Parties who receive notice of the hearing are required to participate, unless excused by the Hearing Panel Chairperson or his/her designee. The Parties are strongly encouraged to attend the hearing in person, but are not required to do so. Should the Parties choose to attend in person, they are responsible for their own expenses.
11.4.2.2. The Board Executive Committee selects the Hearing Panel Chairperson, three additional Panel members, and alternates who may serve on the Hearing Panel. The Hearing Panel Chairperson will confirm that no Panel member presents a conflict of interest with respect to the matters over which the Panel presides. Once selected, the Panel members are barred from discussing the dispute with anyone before the date of the hearing. Each Panel member and the Parties involved receive a copy of the conciliation file.
11.4.2.3. The Parties shall exchange all documents on which they intend to rely during the hearing at least 10 days in advance of the hearing. In addition, Parties must submit to the Panel all documents on which they intend to rely in proving or defending their claim at least 10 days in advance of the hearing. If a Party does not submit such documents in a timely fashion, the Hearing Panel Chairperson may refuse to allow their introduction.
11.4.2.4. The Chairperson of the Panel is empowered to control the conduct of the hearing, and to have authorized persons administer an oath to any witness. The rules of evidence do not apply.
11.4.2.5. When a voluntary resolution does not occur, the Hearing Panel, within 30 days following completion of the hearing, will issue to the Parties and Anti Aging Bed a written statement of facts and a non-binding recommendation for resolution, including, if appropriate, the imposition of certain sanctions. Within two weeks of receiving that recommendation each Party shall inform the Panel and the other Parties in writing whether that Party: (a) accepts the recommended resolution in its entirety; (b) accepts some specific portions of the recommended resolution and rejects the others; or (c) rejects the recommended resolution in its entirety. Any Party may demand arbitration of any unresolved Dispute under Rule 11.5.
11.5. Arbitration: The Parties shall submit any Disputes that were not resolved through the process described in Rule 11.4, through binding arbitration in accordance with this Rule 11.5.
11.5.1. The arbitration award shall be final and binding and judgment thereon may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties acknowledge that the A2B Contract and each of its parts evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act shall apply in all cases and govern the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration rules and arbitration proceedings.
11.5.2. Class Action Waiver: The Parties mutually waive any right to assert any Dispute as a class, collective or representative action, or to participate in any Dispute asserted as such.
11.5.3. No Class Arbitration: The Parties agree that, if the Class Action Waiver at Rule 11.5.2 is found to be void or unenforceable for any reason, any motion to have the Dispute certified as a class action, and any ensuing class action should it be certified, must be heard and disposed of only by a court, and not by an arbitrator; class action claims cannot be submitted to arbitration under these Rules under any circumstances.
11.5.4. Commencement of Arbitration: The complaining Party may file a demand for arbitration with either the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or JAMS. The arbitration will be commenced and conducted in accordance with the AAA or JAMS (whichever is chosen) fee schedules and commercial arbitration rules and this Rule 11.5. If there is any conflict between the JAMS or AAA arbitration rules and this Rule11.5, Rule 11.5 shall apply.
11.5.4.1. If an A2B demands arbitration against Anti Aging Bed or an Approved Provider and the A2B’s claim is less than $10,000, Anti Aging Bed or the Approved Provider, whichever is the applicable respondent, shall pay for all applicable fees of AAA or JAMS for initiating and administering the arbitration and the reasonable fees for the arbitrator for up to two days.
11.5.5. Limitations: Demand for arbitration shall be made within two years after the claim arose, but in no event after the date when the initiation of legal proceedings would have been barred by the applicable statute of limitations. The two-year period or any shorter statutory limitations period shall be tolled during the Conciliation process described in Rule 11.4, provided that Conciliation shall not revive any limitations period that has expired before the time a Party invokes Rule 11.4.
11.5.6. Single Arbitrator: Unless all Parties to the arbitration agree otherwise, a single arbitrator shall be chosen, and Arbitrator candidates must have at least five years’ experience as a state or federal judge or as a full-time ADR professional, including substantial experience in commercial arbitration.
11.5.7. Arbitrability Issues to Be Decided by Arbitrator: The Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.
11.5.8. Award: The arbitrator’s award shall be limited to deciding the rights and responsibilities of the Parties in the specific dispute being arbitrated. The arbitrator’s award shall have no collateral estoppel effect in any other proceeding. The arbitrator shall not provide a statement of reasons for his or her award unless requested to do so by all Parties.
11.5.9. Consolidation: Similar claims involving multiple Parties may be consolidated before a single arbitrator if all Parties agree. The arbitrator will decide any disputed consolidation issues.
11.5.10. Discovery: Notwithstanding any discovery provisions in the JAMS or AAA commercial arbitration rules incorporated in paragraph 11.5.4 above, no discovery shall occur in an arbitration under these Rules unless and until specifically authorized by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall decide the amount, scope and timing of discovery as appropriate in each case. In addition, before requiring any discovery, the Parties involved in the arbitration shall agree on an appropriate confidentiality order consistent with the A2B Contract. If they fail to agree, the arbitrator shall impose appropriate confidentiality requirements on the Parties and witnesses.

This Site is made available by Anti Aging Bed as a service to your A2B. As used in this Privacy Statement, the terms “our,” “we” and “us” refer to both Anti Aging Bed and your A2B unless the context clearly provides otherwise.
We appreciate the opportunity to interact with you on the Internet and are committed to protecting and safeguarding your privacy. The purpose of this Privacy Statement is to inform you about the types of information we might collect about you when you visit our Site, how we may use that information, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to correct, that information.
What Information We Collect and How We Use It
Any information we collect on our Site generally falls into the following two categories: Personally Identifiable Information or Aggregate Information.
1. PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
This refers to information that lets us know who you are or things specifically about you.
A. Visitors
You can browse our Site using the Visitor function without revealing any Personally Identifiable Information. If you want to register or place an order and do not have a sponsoring A2B, you may voluntarily provide Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, address, e-mail address, and telephone number) to be shared with an authorized A2B near you for the purpose of contacting you, including via e-mail, to assist with registration and ordering. In such event, we might maintain a record of your contact, including such Personally Identifiable Information, in a file specific to you. We use this information to provide better service in the event that you contact us again.
B. Registration
When you register to become an authorized A2B and start your own e-commerce business powered by Anti Aging Bed, or when you register to shop online as a Customer, enjoying full access to the many products and services available on our Site, we will collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, address, e-mail address, and telephone number). This Personally Identifiable Information is securely stored and may be accessed under Contact Information.

C. Ordering
When you place an order for products or services, we collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transaction information). We use this information to deliver your order, process payment, and to communicate with you about the status of your order. We may provide information necessary to the delivery of your order to our shipping partners that may include the type of products ordered.
D. Credit Card Storage
Credit card information collected at registration or for shopping cart orders is used only to process payment for the transaction and, generally, is not retained on our Site.

You may add, edit, and delete your stored card information.
E. Surveys and Promotions

We use this information to improve our products and services. We may also use your Personally Identifiable Information to provide you newsletters and other marketing information that coincide with your preferences. You may customize your marketing preferences, or let us know if you do not wish to receive any promotional materials, by adjusting your Subscriptions and Email options on the Site or through a link provided in an email communication.
