          2.3  Obligations of an Independent Distributor

               •  When promoting the Company’s products or services or introducing others to join the Company as an Independent Distributor,

                 Independent Distributor shall not request the potential Independent Distributors or customers to pay for any unnecessary
                 deposits, guarantees or fees.
               •  When promoting the sales of products or services or introducing others to join, the potential Independent Distributors or
                 customers should be clearly informed that the Company does not allow two distributorships or more simultaneously.
               •  Independent Distributor shall not breach the following rules:
                   1)  Incite, induce, recruit, abet the Company’s Independent Distributors to join other direct selling companies or causing to do
                   the same through other means.

                   who changes his or her Sponsor, including using various names or means to cause others to participate and at the same
                   time receive or obtain any fees that have yet to be determined by the Company or any improper benefits.
                 6) Independent Distributor shall not in any manner or use any means (including but not limited to encouragement, inducement,
                   coercion or assistance) to cajole or snaffle other downlines and / or potential customers of another Independent Distributor.
                 7) Use deceiving, misleading, exaggerating, fraudulent, any guaranteed efficacy or false statements or explanations to
