MAP Policy/Terms & Conditions

EVOCHARGE Minimum Advertised Pricing Policy and Intellectual Property Terms of Use

Phillips & Temro Industries/EVOCHARGE, Inc. is dedicated to providing its customers with innovative high-quality products, and superior sales and marketing support. In order to continue to uphold these principles, EVOCHARGE has established this Minimum Advertised Pricing Policy (this “MAP Policy”) to allow it to exercise a greater degree of control over the distribution of EVOCHARGE products, while achieving the following objectives:

  • Maintaining the proper positioning of EVOCHARGE products in the marketplace;
  • Setting guidelines for the use of EVOCHARGE trademarked and copyrighted materials; and
  • Ensuring that EVOCHARGE retailer, reseller and distributor relationships are consistent and value-based across its supply chain.

EVOCHARGE believes that this MAP Policy will protect EVOCHARGE’s brand image and goodwill, and establish a sustainable platform for profitable growth for all authorized retailers, resellers and distributors across its supply chain. It is important to EVOCHARGE that its retailers, resellers and distributors experience sufficient profits from the sale of EVOCHARGE products, thereby allowing them to provide important value-added services throughout the supply chain, including adequate product inventory, encouragement for the stocking of new products, and customer services and support. This MAP Policy has been unilaterally adopted by EVOCHARGE and will be enforced uniformly. The terms of the MAP Policy are detailed below. The MAP Policy will apply to all sales of Products by retailers, resellers and distributors, in any and all modes of sale, including, but not
limited to, through the Internet, through traditional retail channels, and at exhibitions and shows. EVOCHARGE may change or cancel this MAP Policy at any time.

Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) Policy:

EVOCHARGE has established a list price, or Manufacturer’s Suggested Resale Price (“MSRP”), for all of its products, as set forth in the current EVOCHARGE price list (subject to revision by EVOCHARGE from time to time and at any time).

In no event may the advertised price of a EVOCHARGE product be discounted by more than 10% off the MSRP for that product in effect at the time of the price is advertised. Refer to the current EVOCHARGE price list to calculate the exact MAP for each item currently available in EVOCHARGE’s catalog of products.

This MAP Policy is applicable to all Products and their respective part numbers.

It is a violation of this MAP Policy for a retailer, reseller or distributor to directly or indirectly advertise a EVOCHARGE product at a price below the then current MAP or to suggest that a EVOCHARGE product is being promoted at a price less than the MAP, except as permitted by this MAP Policy.

Permitted Pricing:

It will not be a violation of this MAP Policy to advertise in general that the retailer, reseller or distributor has “the lowest prices”
or will match or beat its competitors’ prices, or to use similar phrases, so long as the retailer, reseller or distributor does not include any advertised price below MAP and otherwise complies with this MAP Policy. It will also not be a violation of this MAP Policy to advertise that a customer may “call for price” or “email for price”, or to use similar language, specifically with respect to EVOCHARGE Products, so long as no price is listed. From time to time, EVOCHARGE may permit resellers to advertise MAP Products at prices lower than the MAP. In such events, EVOCHARGE reserves the right to modify or suspend this MAP Policy with respect to the affected products for a specified period of time by providing advance notice to all resellers of such changes.

Distributor MAP Compliance:

You may not sell, distribute or supply any EVOCHARGE products to any retailer, reseller or distributor, including through the Internet or any catalog, that does not comply with this MAP Policy and the Intellectual Property Terms of Use set forth herein. This policy applies to the advertised price on your website(s), as well as those of Internet retailers, resellers or distributors who purchase product through you, sponsored links and other websites operated by, affiliated with, and/or linked to your website(s), auction-type websites, and print catalogs. It will also be your responsibility to monitor prices set by your retail customers and enforce compliance with this policy by internet retailers, resellers or distributors who purchase EVOCHARGE product through you.

Ecommerce Reseller MAP Compliance:

All ecommerce resellers, whether purchasing directly from EVOCHARGE or through a distributor, may not utilize, sell, distribute
or supply EVOCHARGE products unless they comply with this MAP Policy and the Intellectual Property Terms of Use set forth
herein.

THIS POLICY ONLY ADDRESSES THE ADVERTISEMENT OF PRICES FOR EVOCHARGE PRODUCTS ON THE INTERNET AND IN PRINT. ALTHOUGH EVOCHARGE SUGGESTS RESALE PRICES, THIS POLICY DOES NOT REGULATE THE PRICES AT WHICH YOU ACTUALLY SELL ANY EVOCHARGE PRODUCTS.

Monitoring and Reporting:

EVOCHARGE may monitor advertised prices of EVOCHARGE products on the Internet and elsewhere, either directly or by using third parties. Third parties retained by EVOCHARGE may engage in the monitoring of advertised prices of EVOCHARGE products by retailers, resellers and distributors to verify that the requirements of this MAP Policy are being satisfied.

Violations of MAP Policy:

First Violation: Upon discovery of a violation of this MAP Policy, EVOCHARGE will contact the offending party to correct advertised prices that do not comply with this MAP Policy.

Further Violations: If further violations occur, EVOCHARGE may enforce, at its discretion and dependent upon the
severity of the violation(s), any/all of the following penalties:

  • No new orders will be accepted for a period of between seven (7) and thirty (30) calendar days. All pending orders (even if confirmed/accepted) will be cancelled. Warranties will be null and void on any orders fulfilled by offending ecommerce merchants during the designated period, as well as by distributors fulfilling orders for third party violators; and/or
  • EVOCHARGE may revoke authorization to purchase any and all EVOCHARGE products indefinitely. All pending orders (even if confirmed/accepted) will be cancelled and no new orders will be accepted. Warranties will be null and void on any orders fulfilled by offending ecommerce merchants, as well as by distributors fulfilling orders for third party violators. EVOCHARGE may revoke authorization to purchase any and all EVOCHARGE, products to distributors fulfilling orders for third party violators indefinitely; and/or
  • EVOCHARGE may place the violator on its “DO NOT SELL” list.

non-compliant fashion, any open account that is supplying or using the same will be immediately put on hold pending correction
of your non-compliance. If your non-compliance is not resolved within five business days, we will seek legal action against you for damages and remedies available, including attorney’s fees and associated costs.

or otherwise or to prohibit the advertising and marketing of any or all of its products on the Internet or otherwise. This MAP
Policy applies to the advertised prices of retailers, resellers and distributors. So long as they do not violate this MAP Policy,
retailers, resellers and distributors are free to independently determine the ultimate price at which they sell EVOCHARGE
products.

Governing Law:

This MAP Policy will be interpreted, construed and governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. Venue for all disputes arising under this MAP Policy will lie exclusively in the State of Minnesota.

Changes to MAP Policy:

EVOCHARGE reserves the unilateral right to periodically change the terms of this MAP Policy and will post on its website, at www.phillipsandtemro.com, notification of any such changes with the date on which those changes will take effect. This MAP Policy is the unilateral policy of EVOCHARGE, which means that it is one-sided and independent, and does not represent an agreement between EVOCHARGE and any retailer, reseller or distributor.

This MAP Policy supersedes any similar policies that were in effect prior to its effective date. EVOCHARGE reserves the right to revise this policy and/or enforce restrictions which we deem effective towards policy compliance. This may or may not include changes in terms, discounts, drop-ship policies, orders in-house, product availability, warranties or future orders on quotation.
