ISR understands its failure to obtain written approval from New Benefits concerning any materials (printed, electronic or of any other kind or type whatsoever) referencing the Program will result in the immediate termination of their authority to market the Program as well as the deactivation of each membership ISR has sold.

(C) Link any web site created for the purpose of marketing the Program exclusively to the links provided by New Benefits in order for benefit descriptions and vendor information to remain up to date.

(D) Provide New Benefits the name of any client or group, along with the name of their program if private-labeled, to whom ISR markets the Program.
