Terms if you are willing to do an Exclusive Referral Partnership (answer for Accept or Decline below):
Obsidian Solutions Holdings LLC (“Obsidian”)
and the undersigned (“Partner”)
Term: Three (3) years from the Effective Date, automatically renewing every three years unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal.
1. Purpose
This Agreement defines an exclusive working relationship where both parties mutually benefit from consistent, transparent referrals.
Partner keeps full control over the work they wish to perform or subcontract directly, while Obsidian handles everything outside that scope — ensuring no client is left without a solution and both parties share in the reward.
2. Exclusivity
Partner may freely take on or subcontract any work they choose within their own service offerings.
For opportunities outside their normal scope, capacity, or desired workload, Partner agrees to refer those projects exclusively to Obsidian for the duration of this Agreement.
Partner will not forward such opportunities to any other contractor, TPA, or restoration firm while this Agreement is active.
This arrangement applies only to property-related or insurance-driven work; it does not restrict Partner’s unrelated or private-pay business.
3. Compensation
Obsidian compensates Partner for referred projects that close, according to standard referral terms provided at onboarding or in writing per project type.
Payment is typically issued within fifteen (15) business days after project closeout and receipt of funds.
Additional bonuses or revenue-share structures may be extended on a case-by-case basis and confirmed in writing.
4. Mutual Protections
Reputation & Client Respect: Partner’s customers remain their own; Obsidian will never solicit or market competing services to them.
Transparency: Both parties maintain open communication to ensure clients receive seamless service.
Integrity: Each party represents the other honestly, focusing on efficiency, quality, and client satisfaction.
5. Confidentiality
All shared business, client, or pricing information remains confidential.
Neither party may share or use the other’s information outside this partnership without written consent.
This obligation survives termination.
6. Term & Termination
Term: One (1) year, automatically renewing unless either party provides thirty (30) days’ written notice to end.
Termination for Cause: Either party may terminate immediately for material breach or misconduct.
Completion of Active Work: Projects referred prior to termination will be completed under these same terms, with all referral fees honored.
7. Independent Relationship
This Agreement does not create an employer–employee, joint-venture, or agency relationship.
Each party operates independently and remains responsible for its own taxes, insurance, and personnel.
8. Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Oregon, and any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration in Jackson County, Oregon.
9. Digital Acceptance
