We may designate 1 PL Supplier as the only approved supplier of these as well. Other than these items you currently do not have to purchase any goods or services from us, any parent, our predecessors or our affiliates relating to the establishment of your 1 Percent Lists® Business. We may require you to purchase from us, our affiliates or approved suppliers nearly all equipment and supplies you will use in the ongoing operation of your 1 Percent Lists® Business, including all of those described in Item 1 and Item 5. We may also designate other approved suppliers of them or require you to purchase them directly from a designated supplier. Also, at our option we may require you to purchase from us or our affiliates any other products, materials, and supplies which bear the Marks (or our copyrights), or other items, materials or supplies we choose (or designate for our affiliates) to supply to 1 Percent Lists® Businesses. Suppliers in Whom our Officers Hold Interests: Our officers, Grant Clayton and Kelly Clayton have ownership interests in 1 Percent Lists IP, LLC and 1 Percent Lists, LLC. 1 Percent Lists IP, LLC supplies intellectual property to us, but not directly to our franchisees.

As described above, we or our affiliates may be the only approved supplier for them. We will notify you in our Manuals or other communications of our standards and specifications and approved suppliers. We include these requirements in our "System Standards". We do not currently, but in the future, we may negotiate contracts with suppliers who serve as exclusive or approved suppliers to 1 Percent Lists® Businesses. For example, we may designate approved suppliers or manufacturers of certain software, banking or marketing services. Currently, our approved third party suppliers other than 1 PL Supplier include Chase Bank, DotLoop, DocuSign, the National Association of Realtors, and Dean Knows & One Click SEO. We currently do not derive any revenue from your purchases from Approved Suppliers other than us; but we may in the future. See "Rebates" below.

Our affiliates did not derive any revenue from sales to franchisees during the last fiscal year and have not during the current fiscal year.
