Recitals

1. Manager is authorized to exclusively manage and take reservations for one or more short-term rental properties or rooms or glamping tents or other accommodations (together, “Properties”; each a “Property”), to be identified by Manager;
2. RedAwning operates a worldwide, Internet-based property promotion, distribution, marketing, reservations, payments, guest solutions, and customer service platform that enables property owners and managers of short-term rental properties to market and book their properties for rental to guests (each rental, a “Booking”), and provide improved guest experience through add-on tools and solutions (all such services and solutions, together, the “Services”).
3. RedAwning and Manager desire to offer a combined solution of RedAwning’s Services with Manager provided local management, accommodations and guest services (together, the “Combined Solution”), and make available such Combined Solution to Guests (as defined below), all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Agreement 

Now therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants and undertakings herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

1. RedAwning shall advertise the Properties on RedAwning’s websites and RedAwning’s mobile App (“RA Websites”), on a Manager-specific Website built and hosted by RedAwning (“Host Website”), on vacation rental sites and marketing channels operated by others, and on such other channels as RedAwning may add (together, “Channel Partners”).
2. RedAwning shall provide Manager with access to a centralized property management platform (the “RedAwning Portal”) to access and update information about the Property, review and update calendars and pricing, enter calendar blocks, update the Host Website, create and publish a Property guidebook (the “RA Guidebook”), create personalized automated communications to Guests, communicate with Guests, review reservations and tax reports, set supported digital locks automatically, and perform other activities. You are encouraged to access the RedAwning Portal on a routine and consistent basis, to review the Property and amenity description and calendar for accuracy, and to notify RedAwning of any inaccuracies or misstatements as you are solely responsible for the accuracy of the posted information.
3. RedAwning will coordinate with Manager to take new digital property photos at RedAwning expense (“RA Photos”).
4. Rates. RedAwning will establish base rental rates for your Property with your input (“Rates”). Rates will vary based on a number of factors including destination demand, size, number of bedrooms, amenities, location, seasonal fluctuations, macroeconomic factors, rental history, the availability of other properties, minimum stay requirements, and other similar factors. Rates may be adjusted dynamically and may fluctuate on a seasonal, weekly, or daily basis. RedAwning enables you to review and override any Rates in the RedAwning Portal, should you be aware of a local event or decide that the Rates are too high or too low for a particular period.  RedAwning also incorporates promotions to maximize your results, which can vary by Channel Partner (“Promotions”). Should you choose to set a minimum daily rate for your Property, RedAwning will not accept a daily rate below your minimum rate, except in cases of Promotions where RedAwning has established promotional rates to encourage Booking activity.
5. Channel Marketing Fees. RedAwning shall pay any marketing or distribution fees, as well as any merchant processing fees, related to Bookings taken via channel and distribution partners, or via RA Websites, Host Website or other methods (“Channel Marketing Fees”) as part of the Services, and such Channel Marketing Fees shall be added to the prices paid by Guests on such channels and retained by RedAwning as reimbursement.  Channel Marketing Fees for channel partners, such as Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, Vrbo, and others, shall be based on the actual costs for marketing and distribution on such channels.  
6. Minimum Stay Requirements. RedAwning will establish minimum stay requirements for your Property. Minimum stay requirements will vary based on a number of factors including Property features, amenities, seasonal fluctuations, market conditions, performance history, and other similar factors. RedAwning enables you to review and override any minimum stay requirements in the RedAwning Portal, should you decide that the minimum stay settings are too long or too short for a particular period.  You also have the ability to set an absolute minimum night requirement for reserving your Property (the “Absolute Minimum Stay''). If your Property is subject to governmental regulations or HOA rules affecting or imposing minimum stay requirements, you must inform RedAwning and we will adjust your Absolute Minimum Stay requirements accordingly. Absolute Minimum Stay requirements apply to the full calendar year and cannot be adjusted for specific dates. For clarity, you are solely responsible for identifying and enforcing applicable Absolute Minimum Stay requirements affecting the Property, and you agree to defend, indemnify and hold RedAwning harmless from any claims or liability arising from or related to an actual or alleged violation of applicable Absolute Minimum Stay requirements.  
7. RedAwning shall enable Guests to make Bookings conditioned on such Guests meeting any applicable requirements and/or conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the RedAwning Rental Agreement, the then current form of which can be found at https://www.redawning.com/content/rental-agreement (the “Rental Agreement”) and is incorporated herein by reference, and/or an agreement provided by a Channel Partner, as applicable. For clarity, the Rental Agreement and any similar agreement maintained by Channel Partners are subject to periodic adjustment at the discretion of RedAwning and such Channel Partners, respectively. You are thus encouraged to periodically visit the referenced page to view the latest version of the Rental Agreement.
8. RedAwning may provide additional services to be agreed upon with you under this Agreement.  Such services shall be as specified or linked in the PA or an Addendum to this Agreement.  
9. RedAwning also has the right to sell ancillary products and services, for a fee, to you and Guests, such as travel insurance, damage protection, lift tickets, and other products.  You are not entitled to any commissions or compensation  from the sale of these products or services. At times, RedAwning may be required to bundle the price of ancillary products or services in the Rates for your Property. In such cases, the reasonable price of the ancillary product or service will be deducted from the Rates as RedAwning Fees.

1. Collect and process in advance of any tenancy all required base rental amounts ("Base Rent”), cleaning and other required Manager fees (together, “Manager Fees“) (Manager Fees and Base Rent, together, “Gross Rent”), any room-related taxes and assessments (together, “Taxes“), and any additional charges or fees for services, goods and benefits provided by RedAwning and/or third-party vendors (together, “RedAwning Fees“) for the time period(s) selected by the Guest in accordance with (1) each Property’s then current Base Rent schedule, (2) applicable Tax regulations, and (3) the RedAwning Rental Policies (“Rental Policies”) set forth in the Rental Agreement, as such policies may be amended from time to time in RedAwning’s sole reasonable discretion. 
2. Provide the Manager the Guest’s contact information received by RedAwning, such as email address and telephone number and, similarly, provide the Guest via email and the RedAwning mobile app Manager’s contact information;
3. Pay credit card services fees and process any refunds due Guests for cancelled Bookings in accordance with this Agreement and the Rental Policies;
4. In the event RedAwning cannot collect all or any portion of the Gross Rent, Taxes and/or Fees from a Guest through an authorization against such Guest’s credit card, RedAwning shall use reasonable efforts to contact the Guest and collect in advance of the Booking commencement date alternative payment. If such Guest is unable or unwilling to pay all required amounts, the Booking shall be cancelled according to its terms.
5. Process any claims covered under the RedAwning Protection Program as described in Section 6 below. 

1. RedAwning shall pay Manager, as consideration for a confirmed Booking, the Gross Rent and Taxes collected by RedAwning, less the Participation Fee (as defined below), Channel Marketing Fees (as defined below), credit card processing fees (credit card processing fees are three percent (3%) of the Gross Rent and Taxes), RedAwning Fees, and any amounts disputed by Guest (such adjusted amount, “Net Rent”). Manager’s right to payment of Net Rent accrues if and only to the extent: (i) RedAwning collects the related Gross Rent, Taxes and fees; and (ii) Guest’s right, if any, to dispute any charge or receive any whole or partial refund thereof has expired or is terminated.
2. Manager hereby irrevocably assigns to RedAwning Manager’s right to collect and receive Gross Rent and Taxes from Guests for Bookings generated by the Services. The agreement between Manager and RedAwning set forth in this Section 3 is strictly an assignment of a limited right to collect and receive Gross Rent and Taxes and does not result in RedAwning assuming any other right or obligation of Manager in respect to the Properties. Manager acknowledges and agrees that RedAwning shall deposit Gross Rent and Taxes collected and received in respect to the Properties into a Stripe Connect account.
3. RedAwning shall cause Stripe Connect to remit to Manager via ACH deposit accrued and collected Net Rent due and payable by RedAwning to Manager hereunder (a) generally within 2-4 business days after Guest check out, and receiving institutions will generally process such payments within an additional 3-5 days; or (b) for stays where a Channel Partner such as Airbnb manages payments, within 2-4 business days after receipt by RedAwning of related payments from the Channel Partner; or (c) for longer term stays, on a monthly basis in arrears. The time it takes for Manager to receive a Net Rent payout may depend on the receiving bank’s processing schedule. If any jurisdiction requires a Channel Partner or RedAwning to pay any portion, or all, of the Taxes related to a Booking directly to that jurisdiction due to marketplace facilitator or other laws, then RedAwning shall deduct such Taxes from payments to the Manager and notify the Manager of such amounts. Any amounts due from Manager to RedAwning related to Guest refunds, Services provided by RedAwning to Manager or expenses reimbursable to RedAwning hereunder, shall automatically be deducted from Gross Rent amounts.
4. Manager acknowledges and agrees that RedAwning is only responsible for forwarding Net Rent to Manager. RedAwning is not responsible for any financial arrangements, tax liability or transfers between Manager and any other entity, person or governmental authority with an interest in or right to all or any portion of the Property, Net Rent, Taxes, or other amount in any way related to the Property or Booking activities herein contemplated, including without limitation, any Host, asset or onsite Manager, manager or owner association and/or taxing authority.  If Manager prefers RedAwning pay Hosts directly for each Booking, that option is available.
5. In the event Manager takes or registers a direct Booking for a Property outside of RedAwning from any Guest during the Term of this Agreement, whether by any separate website, by phone, by email, in person or by any other means, Manager shall enter such Booking directly into the RedAwning system with RedAwning providing the same payment processing and other services for that Booking.
6. If a Guest attempts at any time to dispute or chargeback, through its credit card issuer or otherwise, any payments previously collected in respect to a Booking, Host shall fully cooperate with RedAwning and Guest to promptly resolve such dispute.  The parties acknowledge and agree that RedAwning shall have sole discretion to resolve the Guest dispute and pay or return any amounts in satisfaction thereof. Manager shall reimburse RedAwning upon demand Manager’s pro rata share of the returned sum, which amount shall be satisfied by credit memo or direct payment at RedAwning’s election.
7. NegHostative Stripe Account Balance. If RedAwning is unable to deduct or collect any amount due to RedAwning under this Agreement from your Stripe Connect Account, you hereby authorize us, without notice, to recapture such amount via ACH transfer from your bank account connected through Stripe.  
8. Timely cancellations of Bookings shall result in (1) the return to the Guest by RedAwning of collected Gross Rent and Taxes amounts, if any, as provided in the Rental Agreement, and (2) distribution by RedAwning to Manager of any non-refundable collected amounts net of the Participation Fee, any applicable Channel Marketing Fees, and processing fees (“Net Collections“). In all cases, for customer service and channel management purposes, RedAwning may allow Guests to cancel Bookings within two (2) business days of making a Booking without charge, even if that policy is inconsistent with the Rental Agreement or Manager’s selected cancellation policy.
9. RedAwning and its Channel Partners require that Guests be allowed to cancel their Bookings if there is a Force Majeure Event impacting multiple properties such as a (natural) disaster, hurricane, volcanic eruption, flood, national or local emergency, mandatory evacuation, terrorism, civil disorder, airport, port or depot closure or any other exceptional or catastrophic event, circumstance or emergency. In addition, certain Channel Partners maintain extenuating circumstances or similar policies that allow Guests to receive a partial or complete refund due to Guest-specific issues such as a death in the family. In the event of any cancellation or refund due to any of these requirements, RedAwning and Manager shall each contribute toward such reimbursement amount in the pro rata proportion of the amounts each party is otherwise entitled to receive under this Agreement with respect to the affected Booking’s Gross Rent, Taxes and fees.

4. Participation Fee. 

1. In consideration of the Services herein provided, RedAwning shall receive a fee (the “Participation Fee”) for each Booking equal to a percentage of the Gross Rent at the rate specified on the PA.  This Participation Fee shall be due and payable for all Bookings received or taken during the Term, including without limitation, Bookings through the Services, including the Manager Website, and Bookings taken or received by the Manager directly over the phone, via email, on or through any website owned or operated by Manager other than the Manager Website and whether or not connected to the Services, made personally by a Guest, or through any other means or method.
2. Existing Bookings.RedAwning Participation Fees any applicable Channel Marketing Fees will apply to all Bookings for which RedAwning provides Services, including any Bookings outstanding on the Effective Date of this Agreement.  Such Participation Fees shall be invoiced to Manager or deducted from payments otherwise due to Host hereunder.

5. Manager Obligations.

1. Listing Exclusivity. Contemporaneous with the execution of this Agreement, Manager shall transfer or cause to be transferred any existing advertising listings for the Properties subject to this Agreement to RedAwning.

2.

3. Manager shall promote the Combined Solution on its public-facing website and at its public office locations, which efforts shall include, without limitation, (i) informing Hosts about the Combined Solution, (ii) endorsing the Combined Solution and RedAwning as Manager’s exclusive provider of the Services as part of Manager’s property management services, (iii) promoting the revenue opportunity that listing and renting Properties through the Combined Solution in partnership with RedAwning represents for Hosts.
4. Establish and periodically update as necessary the required Property Description information for each Property for use on the Property Pages. Manager shall also include for display on the Property Pages, when available, recent digital images of each Property (together, “Photos”). 
5. For each Booking, Manager shall provide to RedAwning at least seven (7) days in advance the check-in information for each Guest and deliver the Property in arrival-ready condition upon Guest’s arrival (Booking commencement date), including without limitation, fresh linens and a professional standard of cleanliness.

In the event Manager fails or refuses to negotiate with the Guest promptly and in no event more than five (5) calendar days following request by RedAwning, RedAwning may, in its sole discretion and on Manager’s behalf, perform such negotiations and agree on and issue financial compensation. Manager shall reimburse RedAwning such compensation amount upon demand, which amount shall be satisfied by credit memo or direct payment at RedAwning’s election.
7. Review and, via the RedAwning Portal, make any desired changes to the Base Rent schedule established by RedAwning for each Property, or directly provide such Base Rent schedule.  Establish and periodically update as needed fees for cleaning or other services, applicable Taxes, if any, and such additional fees and payments to be withheld from and/or paid by a Guest of the Property. Manager shall timely provide any updates to the Base Rent schedule to RedAwning, and both Guests and RedAwning shall each have the right to rely on the most recent Base Rent schedule in, respectively, renting each Property and performing the Services as herein contemplated.

Manager shall enter such Black-Out Dates on the Property Calendar immediately as they become known to Manager. In the event Manager’s failure to perform in accordance with this Section 5.h. results in a scheduling conflict between a Booking and a Black-Out Date, the Booking shall supersede and take precedence over the Black-Out Date. In no event may Manager cancel a Booking otherwise properly made by a Guest for personal use by a Host, their friends or family members.  If Manager is unable to honor a Booking for any reason, and Manager is unable to relocate the Guest to a comparable property, Manager will compensate RedAwning for any and all related costs to rebook the Guest into another similar or better property including any higher price of such property or other compensation to the Guests that RedAwning reasonably makes.
10. Notify RedAwning immediately in the event (i) any Booking conflicts with a Black-Out Date, (ii) any issue, question, concern or dispute arises or is made known to Manager in respect to a Property, a Booking, a Guest or any other matter in respect to the Services, or (iii) of a casualty adversely affecting a Property subject to a Booking.

13. At all times maintain the Properties in good, clean and habitable condition and in conformance with all applicable international, foreign, federal, state, local and association laws, regulations, ordinances, rules and covenants (together, “Laws”). In furtherance of this Section 5.l., Manager shall enter into and maintain, and timely pay and perform when due, its duties under, contracts with such third-party service providers to the Properties, including by way of example only, utilities, waste disposal, house cleaning, pool maintenance and yard maintenance services, as may be necessary or required to satisfy its obligations hereunder.

Such policies of insurance shall include coverage for the third-party rental and Service activities herein contemplated.
15.  Upon RedAwning’s request, provide proof to RedAwning’s reasonable satisfaction of Manager’s sole right, license and authority to rent each Property to third parties, enter into this Agreement to effect such rentals through RedAwning, and receive Net Rents as herein contemplated.
