Affiliate Program Application. We will evaluate your application and, where
applicable, notify you of your acceptance. We may reject your application if we
determine, in our sole discretion, that Your Site is not suitable for the
Affiliate Program for any reason, including, but not limited to, inclusion of
content on Your Site that we deem is in any way unlawful, harmful, threatening,
defamatory, obscene, harassing, or racially, ethnically or otherwise
objectionable, which by way of example only and not limited to,
contains (i) sexually explicit, pornographic or obscene content (whether in

1. Protection
of Minors. We do not allow anyone under the age of 18 to register with or
play on the Sites. The Sites are not designed to attract children or adolescents,
and the sites can take certain measures to block underage persons from
registering with the Sites. Therefore, we shall reject your application if we
determine, at our sole discretion, that Your Site is designed to appeal to
minors and, as such, is not suitable for our Affiliate Program.
2. Setting
Up Links and Promotions. In the event of your acceptance to the
Affiliate Program, we will make available to you, banner advertisements, button
links, text links and other links as determined by WiltonBay Limited which
shall all link to the Site, (referred to hereinafter as a "Link"),
which you may display on Your Sites, provided you abide by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. You may not modify a Link, unless you have
received prior written consent from WiltonBay Limited to do so. In the event
that we determine that your use of any Link is not in compliance with the terms
of this Agreement, we shall be entitled to take such measures as to render
inoperative the Links used by you. You may not advertise the Sites in any way
not approved in advance by WiltonBay Limited including, without limitation, the
use of any spam method including but not limited to spam e-mails. In addition
to your use of Links you may promote the Sites by means of (i) distribution of
CDs containing Site-related software (the "CDs") to potential Money
Players , as defined below and (ii)_the publication of bonus codes (each a
"Promotion" and collectively the "Promotions"). Your
activities in relation to a Promotion shall be strictly in accordance with WiltonBay
Limited's relevant guidelines as such shall exist and be amended from time to
time. Your offering of a Promotion at any time shall be conditional on your
receipt of our prior written approval for the Promotion and in the event that
you do not receive our approval in relation to the Promotion, you shall not be
permitted to receive any commissions generated on account of Money Players, as
defined below, who have become such in connection with unapproved Promotions.
You shall refrain from marketing the Sites in any way which might compete with
our own marketing efforts, unless you have received written approval from us in
such regard. By way of example, only the following activities will be
considered to be activities, which if undertaken by you, would compete with our
own marketing efforts and are prohibited hereunder: (i) the placement of Links
on any Internet sites on which we place advertisements for the Sites and (ii)
the promotion of the Sites by you by way of keyword advertising with Internet
search engines. Your breach of the foregoing provisions will constitute a
breach of this Agreement, and WiltonBay Limited retains full authority to (i)
terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of such breach and (ii)
indefinitely withhold from you any commission accrued to your benefit through
such competitive activities.
3. Leads
and Money Players. A "Lead" shall mean an Internet user who accesses the
Site directly through a Link, fills in his details and valid email address and

child or sibling. The number of Leads/Players/Accounts per individual household

ii.
All commissions shall be paid to you on a monthly basis, within
approximately 15 business days following the end of each month. Payments of
commissions shall be made directly to you as per your preferred payment method
elected by you as part of your application process. In the event that you
provide WiltonBay Limited with incorrect or incomplete details in relation to
your preferred payment method and WiltonBay Limited is not able to transfer the
commissions to you, WiltonBay Limited reserves the right to subtract from the
commissions due to you an amount of money to reflect the required investigation
and additional work created by your having provided incorrect or incomplete
details. WiltonBay Limited shall be entitled to set-off from the amount of
commission to be paid to you any associated costs related to the transfer of
such commission. In the event that the commission to be paid to you in any
calendar month is less than $200 (the "Minimum Amount"), WiltonBay
Limited shall not be obligated to make the payment until such time as the
commission is equal to or greater than the Minimum Amount. WiltonBay Limited
retains the right to review all commissions for possible Fraud, where such
Fraud may be on the part of the Money Player or on your part. During the period
of time in which WiltonBay Limited shall review commissions for possible Fraud,
where such review period shall not to exceed 180 days, WiltonBay Limited shall
have the right to withhold any commission accrued in your favor until such time
as the review has been concluded. Any incidence of Fraud on your part
constitutes a breach of this Agreement, and WiltonBay Limited retains full
authority to terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of such breach.
Further, in the event that WiltonBay Limited deems that fraud has occurred,
either on your part or on the part of a Money Player, you shall not be entitled
to receive any commissions which have accrued to your benefit at such time
whether such commissions were generated through fraud or otherwise. WiltonBay
Limited retains the right to set-off from future commissions payable to you any
amounts already received by you which can be shown to have been generated by
Fraud. You are urged to provide accurate details in regard to the manner and
information relating to your preferred method of receiving commissions and WiltonBay
Limited shall not be held liable for your delayed receipt of commissions due to
your provision of inaccurate details.
iii.
For the purpose of this Agreement and by way of example only the
term "Fraud" shall include, but shall not be limited to, actual or
attempted (i) bonus abuse on the part of the Money Players, (ii) the
encouragement by you or a third party of bonus abuse on the part of the Money
Players, (iii) a chargeback executed by a Money Player in relation to their
initial deposit, (iv) collusion on the part of the Money Player with any other
player on the Sites, (v) the opening of an account in breach of the terms of
this Agreement, (vi) the offering or providing by you or any third party of any
unauthorized incentives (financial or otherwise) to potential Money Players and
(vii) any other act by you or by a Money Player which is reasonably understood
to have been committed in bad faith against WiltonBay Limited regardless of
whether or not such action has resulted in any type of harm or damage to WiltonBay
Limited.
iv.

Limited and agreed by you that the future commissions which WiltonBay Limited
shall pay to you shall relate solely to the sites products. WiltonBay Limited
shall have no obligation whatsoever in relation to future products or services
provided to Money Players by WiltonBay Limited or any of its affiliated
entities.
v.
For the commission calculation purposes and the term
"Casino Gross Revenue" shall mean the sum total of all of a Money
Player’s bets while playing at the Casino Site, less the winnings of a Money
Player, less any credits, bonus or promotional amounts given to a Money Player,
less any charge backs (including amounts paid as a result of credit card abuse
or fraud, or paid to a Money Player to settle a claim involving the allegation
of credit card or other abuse or fraud) or any uncollectible revenue
attributable to a Money Player.
vi.
Should a player process a charge back at our partner’s casino,
the dispute or charged-back revenue generated by yourself will be forfeited and
therefore deducted from the total balance due to you for the current month.
vii.
Should this deduction of the accumulated revenue exceed your
current amount due, your balance will revert to a negative balance, and you
will have to earn revenue to cover the charge-back before you can start earning
revenue again.
viii.
Unlike with a player making a big win, which only lasts one
month, a charge back will stay due until the revenue generated by your other
players has covered the amount due.
ix.
Please understand that the Merchant can only pay out a percentage
of its commissionable earnings, not fraudulent revenue.
x.
Complimentary Money, Free Money and Other incentives refer to those
amounts credited to the account of customers. As these customers/players have
not purchased such amounts we cannot pay commissions on these amounts.
xi.
Negative earning are NOT carried forward and the Affiliates will
begin each month on a zero balance. Should the Affiliates close the month with
a positive balance; commissions will be paid on the positive balance. Should
the Affiliates close the month with a negative balance; this balance will NOT
be carried forward to the next month, unless the negative balance is a result
of a charge-back as described above.
xii.
Commissionable earnings will be earned for the life of the customer, on
all transactions the customer undertakes at the merchant, for as long as the
Affiliate remains a member of this
xiii.
All payments will be made in US dollars.
6. Contact
with Money Players. All Money Players shall be considered to be customers of WiltonBay
Limited only. Should you wish to contact a Money Player you are obligated to
first receive WiltonBay Limited's written approval for such contact and without
such approval you are expressly forbidden from making contact and corresponding
with Money Players. If in the opinion of WiltonBay Limited you either try to or
do make contact with a Money Player without WiltonBay Limited's written approval,
WiltonBay Limited shall be entitled to immediately terminate this Agreement and
to indefinitely withhold all commissions owing to you at such time. Further, if
following your receipt of WiltonBay Limited's written approval for your
contacting or corresponding with a Money Player, WiltonBay Limited deems that
such contact or correspondence is against the best interests of WiltonBay
Limited, WiltonBay Limited shall have the right to revoke the approval
previously granted, to terminate this Agreement and to indefinitely withhold
all commissions owing to you at such time.
7. Intellectual

grant you a non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable license to place the
