MAP Policy Agreement

SECTION 1: MINIMUM ADVERTISED PRICING POLICY

True Grace Nutrition, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company (“True Grace”) is one of the premier providers of dietary supplements in the United States. True Grace maintains a significant investment in a consistent brand image, emphasizing both high quality and performance. In keeping with this carefully cultivated image, True Grace believes that its dietary supplements and other related products (collectively, the “True Grace Products”) should be advertised at prices that reflect that image.

This Policy is also intended to support the efforts of authorized True Grace distribution channel partners (collectively, “resellers”) as they endeavor to provide an appropriate level of service, merchandising, advertising, and promotion in the support of True Grace’s strategy for True Grace product offerings and in turn, the True Grace brand image. These value-added activities performed on behalf of True Grace resellers are encouraged, and this Policy is intended to support the business health of its resellers to ensure that these efforts continue and continuously improve over time.

This Policy is applicable to all resellers. True Grace will not support a reseller’s advertising or promotional activities through media that could diminish the value of the True Grace brand.

This Policy is in addition to and separate from all other programs and policies intended to establish a strong brand presence, allowing the end customer an experience that is commensurate with True Grace’s emphasis on high quality and performance.
