PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION SCHEDULE
The terms of this Schedule apply if you submit any Product for production through the Programme.
- Production of Products. You may request the production of certain Products that use, incorporate, or are based on your Content. For each Product you request to have produced, we will deduct our costs and fees. The Cost of Goods and Anuvavi Apparels Fees for a Product may change from time to time, including after you have authorized its production, based on our production and fulfillment costs or other factors.
- Royalties. For each sale of a Product by Anuvavi Apparels, Anuvavi Apparels will pay you a royalty (“Royalty”) as described on the Swag Swami ATM Program Royalties page. Taxes and any separately stated fees or charges are excluded from the list price when calculating Royalties. A Royalty is due only for sales for which we have received final payment from or on behalf of an end user. If a Product is purchased using a credit card or cash on delivery mechanism through a third-party logistics company, final payment will be deemed to have occurred when the applicable credit card company or logistics company has fully settled the payment for the applicable purchase. A Royalty is due only on the sale by Anuvavi Apparels of a Product.
- Pricing and Sales. Anuvavi Apparels will be the seller of record for the Products. Anuvavi Apparels has sole discretion to determine price, availability, distribution channels, and terms of sale for the Products. We are responsible for and have sole discretion related to processing payments, collecting payments, addressing requests for refunds, and providing customer service related to our obligations, and we will have sole ownership and control of all sales and other data we obtain from customers in connection with the Programme.
- Product Information. For every Product, you will provide the following information: name of the Product, your name, product description, and any other information related to the Products that we require (together, “Required Product Information”). “Product Information” includes the Required Product Information and any other information and content related to your Content and/or to you, such as all metadata, graphics, artwork, images, trademarks, trade names, logos and other descriptive or identifying information and materials associated with you or a particular Product. You are responsible for providing accurate Product Information, and will not make any false, inaccurate, or misleading claims or statements regarding any Content or Product or otherwise mislead customers regarding any Content or Product. If any Product Information is inaccurate or needs to be updated or modified, you will promptly provide us with corrections, updates, or modifications.
- Grants of Rights.
- Production; Design; Distribution. You hereby grant Anuvavi Apparels a nonexclusive, perpetual, irrevocable (subject to Section 6 of the Agreement), royalty-free, worldwide, right and license to make, have made, sell, import, reproduce, distribute, create derivative works of, and use the Content for purposes of designing, distributing, and producing Products.

Nothing in this Agreement restricts us from exercising any right available to us under applicable law or any separate license.

If you provide suggestions, ideas, or other feedback to us about the Programme, we will be free to exercise all rights in such feedback without restriction and without compensating you.
- Royalty Payments and Reporting; Taxes
- Payment Terms. Subject to the terms of this paragraph, we will pay you Royalties within approximately 30 days after the end of the calendar month in which final payment for the applicable sale is made. At the time of payment, we will make available to you a report detailing sales of Products and corresponding Royalties. All payments will be made via National Electronic Funds Transfer (“NEFT”) or other methods we designate in the Programme Policies. Depending on the country where you are located, we may require you to provide us with information for a valid bank account in your name for receiving NEFT payments and, if you do not provide that information, we may withhold payments, without interest, until you do so and/or pay you via check and deduct a payment processing fee. You may not maintain any action or proceeding against us with respect to any report or payment unless you commence that action or suit within 6 months after the date the report or payment was due. If we pay you a Royalty on a sale and later issue a refund or credit to the customer for such sale (or receive a chargeback related to the sale), we may offset the amount of the Royalty we previously paid you against future Royalties or other amounts that would otherwise be payable to you under this Agreement, or require you to remit that amount to us. For any amounts that we determine you owe us, we may (a) charge any payment instrument you provide to us; (b) offset any amounts that are payable by you to us (in reimbursement or otherwise) against any payments we may make to you or amounts we may owe you; (c) invoice you for amounts due to us, in which case you will pay the invoiced amounts upon receipt; (d) reverse any credits to your bank accounts; or (e) collect payment or reimbursement from you by any other lawful means. If we determine that your actions or performance may result in returns, chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of this Agreement or the Programme Policies, or other risks to Anuvavi Apparels or third parties, then we may in our sole discretion withhold any payments to you for as long as we determine any related risks to Anuvavi Apparels or third parties persist. If we determine that your account has been used to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or if you are unable to demonstrate that you have all necessary rights to the Content you provide us for a Product, then we may in our sole discretion permanently withhold Royalties to you for any Products. If after we have terminated your Programme account you open a new Programme account without our express permission, we will not owe you any Royalties under the new Programme account.
- Taxes. Anuvavi Apparels is responsible for collecting and remitting any taxes imposed on its sales of Products to customers. You are responsible for any income or other taxes due and payable resulting from any Anuvavi Apparels payment to you. Accordingly, unless otherwise stated, the amounts due to you hereunder are inclusive of any taxes that may apply to such payments. Anuvavi Apparels maintains the right, however, to deduct or withhold any applicable taxes that we may be legally obligated to deduct or withhold from amounts due from Anuvavi Apparels or its affiliates, and the amounts due, as reduced by such deductions or withholdings, will constitute full payment to you. You will provide Anuvavi Apparels with any forms, documents or other certifications as may be requested by Anuvavi Apparels to satisfy any information reporting or tax obligations with respect to this Agreement.
- Marketing Limitations.

- Product Availability; Withdrawal; Termination. We may determine in our discretion to make any Product available through our Programme. We may stop any transaction, or take other actions as needed to restrict access to or availability of any Product or Content that does not comply with this Agreement. Any withdrawal of a Product does not relieve you of responsibility to perform other obligations under this Agreement. Subject to other terms of this Agreement, you may withdraw a Product from further sale through our Programme as of a specified date by sending a request to us by email to support@swagswami.com or any other email address we may specify. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to stop selling the applicable Product within 10 business days after we receive such a request. You will immediately notify us if you unexpectedly lose the rights required under this Agreement or become aware of a third party claim related to these rights. If the Agreement is terminated, we will stop selling your Products as of the date the termination takes effect. Notwithstanding any withdrawal or termination, we may fulfill any customer orders placed prior to the withdrawal or termination. Any withdrawal does not limit our, or any third party’s, right to sell used Products.
