On all qualifying orders, Merchant will pay to the Affiliate ten percent (10%) of the Internet retail selling price of each item of Merchant's merchandise sold to a customer as direct result of passing through the hyperlink from the Advertisement to access Merchant's web site.

A statement showing Merchant's calculations in reasonable detail will accompany each payment. Merchant may deduct from future payments for items that were returned or canceled but for which commissions were remitted. Minimum payment to Affiliate is $10.00. If Affiliate does not meet the minimum payment for the month, the amount will roll over to the following month. If minimum payment is not met within three month’s time, Affiliate’s payment schedule will be changed to a bi-annual schedule (once every six months) until such time the Affiliate’s total commissions meet the $10 monthly minimum on a regular basis.
