AGREEMENT
| 1. | Appointment of Distributor. Supplier hereby appoints Distributor as an authorized Distributor of the Products to the Market in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Distributor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell and promote the sale of the Products to the Market. Distributor may appoint sub-Distributors in the Market at its own risk, expense and supervision. Distributor warrants that any sub-Distributor shall be subject to all standards, rules, regulations and terms and conditions of this Agreement. Distributor will notify Supplier in writing of any sub-Distributors it appoints. Supplier agrees not to circumvent Distributor’s exclusivity in any way, including but not limited to: (i) appointing any other person or entity as a Distributor of the Products in the Market; or (ii) offering the Products in its own market facing brand or a different brand to the Market, except pursuant to a prior written agreement by the Parties. Supplier acknowledges and agrees that breach of the exclusivity rights granted hereunder would cause irreparable harm and damage to Distributor and that such damage may not be ascertainable in money damages and that as a result thereof Distributor would be entitled to seek from a court equitable or injunctive relief restraining any breach or future violation of the terms contained herein by Supplier without the necessity of proving actual damages and without bond. Such right to equitable relief is in addition to whatever remedies Distributor may be entitled to as a matter of law or equity, including money damages. |
| 2. | Grant of License. | ||
| a. | License: Supplier hereby grants to Distributor a non-exclusive, non-transferable right and license to: | ||
| i. | Market, sell, and distribute the Products to End Users within the Market; and | ||
| ii. | Grant sub-licenses of these rights to third parties (Sub-Distributors) within the Market, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and Supplier’s prior written consent. | ||
| b. | Exclusivity: Supplier may provide exclusivity for the Markets defined in Exhibit A to Distributor upon attainment of milestones to be agreed upon by the Parties. | ||
| c. | Limitations on Sub-Licensing: Any sub-licenses granted by the Distributor to Sub-Distributors shall: | ||
| i. | Be in writing and expressly incorporate the terms and conditions of this Agreement; | ||
| ii. | Not grant any rights to the Sub-Distributor that are greater than the rights granted to the Distributor under this Agreement; and | ||
| iii. | Provide that any breach of the sub-license by the Sub-Distributor shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by the Distributor. | ||
| d. | Reservation of Rights: Except for the rights expressly granted in this Section, Supplier reserves all other rights, title, and interest in and to the Products, including all intellectual property rights. | ||
| 3. | Prices and Terms. Distributor shall pay Supplier for the products and performance of services hereunder as follows. | ||
| a. | Distributor will provide Supplier with a Purchase Order outlining the mutually agreed upon quantity, pricing and shipping/delivery arrangements for the Products between the Supplier and Distributor. | ||
| b. | Supplier shall invoice Distributor for its Products in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Order, unless amended in writing by the Parties. | ||
| c. | Supplier shall submit invoices to Distributor no later than 10 days prior to the anticipated shipping or delivery date of the Products to the location defined in the Distributor’s purchase order. | ||
| d. | Each invoice will be paid to the Supplier within 2 days of the Products anticipated shipping or delivery date. | ||
|
All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars as directed.

Distributor shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to conduct an inspection of the Products in order to confirm the requested Products are as purchased in accordance with the Purchase Order. | |||
| 4. | Terms and Conditions of Sales. All prices of the Products are FOB origin/Supplier. The Parties agree that Distributor will handle all billing and account receivables. Any applicable discounts or rebates are payments which are subject to the disclosure requirements as “discounts or other reductions in price” under the provisions of 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(b)(3)(A). Accordingly, Distributor agrees that it will inform its Customers who participate in federal and state health care programs and purchase the Products that they must submit claims or requests for payment in a manner reasonably calculated to give notice of the obligation to report discounts and to provide information upon request as set forth in 42 CFR §1001.952(h)(1). Distributor also agrees that it will refrain from doing anything that would impede its Customers’ ability to meet its obligations under 42 CFR § 1001.952(h). | ||

| 5.4 Shipping Designation: Each purchase order must specify the locations for shipment of all Products within the designated Market. | ||
| 5.5 Returns and Freight Costs: The Distributor or the Distributor’s Customers may return Products that do not conform to the warranties or that are shipped in error. The Supplier will bear all associated return freight costs. | ||

Jacob Cohen, CEO and Co-Founder of MangoRx, commented, “We are thrilled to partner with the International Society of Frontier Life Sciences and Technology to expand our presence in China and the Asia Pacific region. This agreement aligns with our strategic goal of reaching new international markets and providing men worldwide with access to our innovative health solutions. According to the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), there are an estimated 400 million males aged 35 and above in China alone (https://www.population-trends-asiapacific.org/data/CHN). We believe that this demographic represents a substantial addressable market for our products and that ISFLST’s strong market presence and distribution capabilities make them the ideal partner to help us achieve this vision.”
Mr. Zhang Xin, a representative of the ISFLST Beijing Office, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “We are excited to collaborate with MangoRx to promote their exceptional men’s health products and co-develop region specific formulations. This partnership is a testament to our commitment to seeking the best-in-class innovations in health and wellness products to our international communities.”
ISFLST has already begun marketing activities in the region, establishing MangoRx Exhibits in Beijing and Hangzhou with market tests planned for South Korea and Southeast Asia, with the goal of further boosting the visibility and credibility of MangoRx’s offerings in the region.
We expect this partnership with ISFLST represents a pivotal step for MangoRx as it continues to expand its global footprint. With this strategic partnership, MangoRx aims to strengthen its market position and cater to the growing consumer demand for advanced men’s health products across the Asia Pacific region.
