- 6.3
- Excessive Customer Support Fees. Kagi has the right to designate no more than one out of every four hundred (400) active Kagi Suppliers as Suppliers whose product sales generate excessive and unnecessary customer support. Excessive customer support means that in Kagi's opinion, compared to all other Product sales, a very high percentage of all Product sales for a specific Supplier require some after sales interaction between Kagi employees and the purchasing Customer or the Product Supplier. Unnecessary customer support means that in Kagi's opinion, suggestions by Kagi to the Product Supplier that should minimize customer support needs have not been implemented to Kagi's satisfaction. Such designation would be proceeded with two or more communications from Kagi to the Supplier, beginning four (4) weeks prior to the designation, warning of the reasons for this potential designation and actions that can be taken by the Supplier to avoid the designation. A Supplier designated as causing excessive and unnecessary customer support will be charged an additional one percent (1.00%) monthly of all sales (Kagi and Supplier direct sales) of their Products until the designation is removed by Kagi at Kagi's sole discretion.

Within twenty (20) days after the end of every month (or the first business day thereafter if day 20 is not a business day), or on another less frequent time schedule you request In Writing, Kagi will begin the transmission to you or begin the collection from you, per your instructions, of all amounts in your Account, minus applicable Commissions, Payment Servicing Fees, amounts withheld per this agreement, and fees due for Kagi Technology and Other Services. You understand that if you have requested your payment in a non-USD currency that conversion fees may apply and that Kagi cannot guarantee any specific conversion fee. If such amount is positive, you understand that the time between transmission, per your instructions, and your receipt of the amounts is not under Kagi's control. Payments to you are subject to Kagi's withholding rights under Section 7.3, Withholding, below. You may also request In Writing that Kagi send payments to you only when your Account balance exceeds a minimum amount that you specify. If at the end of the month, there are no Payments to you because your Account balance is negative, Kagi may at its option immediately collect the negative balance from a credit card that you have on file or invoice you for the amount due. If Kagi chooses to invoice you, such invoice shall be due and payable 30 days after the invoice date.
- 7.3
- Withholding. Kagi may withhold certain amounts from payments to you if Kagi anticipates that those amounts will be returned to Customers, or if Kagi anticipates Chargebacks of your sales, or if Kagi anticipates the non-delivery of Products, or if Kagi anticipates that your Account balance will become negative. Kagi will resume the delivery of payments to you when Kagi determines that the balance of money owed to you exceeds the amount potentially necessary to cover future fees, expenses and reimbursements to Customers.
- 7.4
- Returns. Kagi shall attempt to notify you by email within two (2) business days of any request received by Kagi for a refund of money paid to Kagi toward the purchase of a Product ("Refund Request"). Kagi shall refund the money paid for the purchase transaction and shall debit the money from your Account if either (i) Kagi receives your approval of a Refund Request within ten (10) calendar days of Kagi's Refund Request notification, or (ii) Kagi receives no response from you within ten (10) calendar days of the Refund Request notification, or (iii) in Kagi's opinion the denial of a Refund Request will likely result in a Chargeback. Kagi shall not refund Customer's money if within ten (10) calendar days of Kagi's Refund Request notification the Customer withdraws the Refund Request.
- 7.5
- Accounting. A detailed accounting will be provided to you, identifying the source and amount of revenues received by Kagi for purchase of your Products, along with the applicable Kagi Commissions and Payment Servicing Fees withheld.
- 7.6
- Inspection Rights. At your own expense, you may annually inspect Kagi's records to verify amounts payable to you under this Agreement. You may employ a certified public accountant for this purpose. Kagi will maintain such records for at least one (1) year after the dates of the underlying transactions. Any such inspection will be confidential and conducted during ordinary business hours after Kagi is given reasonable written notice, in no event less than one (1) week. If the sum of all revenues paid to you for twelve (12) months preceding the inspection is in error, the error shall be corrected by either; (a) you paying Kagi any overpayment or, (b) Kagi paying you any underpayment. If the sum of all revenues paid to you for twelve (12) months preceding the inspection is in error by five percent (5%) or more, then Kagi will pay the documented expenses of the certified public accountant.
- 7.7
- Chargebacks. Kagi shall attempt to notify you within two (2) business days of any Chargeback or Chargeback request received by Kagi for money paid to Kagi toward the purchase of a Product ("Chargeback Request").

In the attempted notification, Kagi may offer you possible choices and estimated costs regarding ways you may attempt to reverse the Chargeback Request.
- 7.8
- US Tax Identification Numbers. For suppliers currently subject to United States income taxes, Kagi can be required by law to file a United States tax form for services rendered, such as affiliate earnings. For suppliers for whom Kagi is required to file a United States tax form, Kagi will withhold payments for services rendered totaling more than USD 500 in one tax year if you have not provided Kagi with a United States tax form declaring your United States Social Security Number or Employer Identification Number.
- 7.9
- Excessive Chargeback Penalties. Should the number of Chargebacks to Kagi and refunds issued by Kagi to prevent Chargebacks exceed a limit specified by any credit card processor or issuer, and if this condition triggers financial penalties to Kagi from any credit card processor or issuer, and if your transactions comprise more than twenty five percent (25%) of the Chargebacks and refunds that triggered the financial penalties, you shall be liable to Kagi for the full amount of such financial penalties.
- 8.
- Intellectual Property Ownership and Proprietary Rights Notices. All title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in the Kagi Services, Kagi Technology and Kagi Sites and any modifications or derivative works of the Kagi Services, Kagi Technology or Kagi Site, whether made by Kagi, you, or anyone else, are and will remain Kagi's or its Business Affiliates', as applicable, sole property.
