This Clean the World MASTER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of, ____________________ _____, ________(the “Effective Date”), is made by and between Marriott International, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, located at 10400 Fernwood Road, Bethesda, MD 20817 (“Marriott” or “Party”), and Clean the World Global LLC d/b/a Clean the World Ventures, LLC, a Florida limited liability certified B-Corporation, (sometimes referred to herein as the “Company), with its principal place of business at 2544 E. Landstreet Road, Suite 600, Orlando, Florida 32824 (“CTW US”) and CTW US’s affiliates, including but not limited to, Clean the World Foundation, Inc., a Florida not for profit corporation that has been designated as a public charity under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, with its principal place of business at 2544 E. Landstreet Road, Suite 600, Orlando, Florida 32824 (“CTWF”), Clean the World Canada, a Canadian non-profit, with its principal place of business at 90 Rue St-Anne suite 204, St-Anne de Bellevue, Québec – Canada H9X 1L8, Clean the World Asia, a Hong Kong non-profit, with its principal place of business at Room 1203,12/F, OfficePlus@ Sheung Wan No 93-103 Wing Lok Street, Hong Kong, and Clean the World UK, a United Kingdom limited company which also operates across Europe, with its principal place of business at 3rd Floor, 11-12 St. James’s Square, London SW1Y 4LB, United Kingdom. (Program Participant and Company sometimes being referred to herein collectively as the “Parties”). The purpose of this Agreement is to establish a framework under which any hotel property affiliated with Marriott or bearing any Marriott flag, including the newly affiliated Starwood flags, (each a “Program Participant”) may participate in the Company’s hospitality amenity recycling program and its related services (the “Program Services”), all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
1. Program Services. The Company will furnish, at the sole cost and expense of the Company, all labor, tools, equipment and materials, supplies and services to perform the Program Services, and to perform all other work incidental thereto, related to the collection, recycling and distribution of soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, bath gel and such other hospitality-related items as the parties may agree upon (the “Hospitality Items”), all in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and as further specified on Annex A attached hereto, to those program participants (“Program Participants”) who are identified on and have elected to receive such services through the execution of Annex B. The Program Services will be provided on a non-exclusive basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Marriott and its affiliates will have the right to receive similar or identical services from parties unrelated to the Company.
2. The Good Samaritan Food Donor Act. The Company and CTWF have a mission to reduce the #1 and #2 killers of children worldwide through the distribution of hygiene products. The Company will collect and recycle items from Program Participants it deems appropriate for distribution. The Good Samaritan Law of the United States, Canada, and Legge del Buon Samaritano of Italy (the “Act”) encourages the donation of food and grocery products, including soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, bath gel and other grocery related items, to non-profit organizations for distribution to individuals in need. Specifically, this Act:
♣ protects donors from liability for certain donations
♣ protects donors from civil and criminal liability should the product donated in good faith later cause harm to the recipient
♣ standardizes donor liability exposure within the United States, Canada, and Italy
♣ sets a floor of "gross negligence" or intentional misconduct for donors of grocery products
3. Term; Termination. This Agreement will commence, and will be in full force and effect, beginning on the Effective Date, and will terminate sixty (60) months thereafter (the “Initial Term”). Unless written notice of termination is provided by either Party not less than sixty (60) days before the Initial Term expires, this Agreement will be automatically extended and renewed for successive twelve (12) month periods following the Initial Term (each, a “Renewal Term,” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”). This Agreement may be terminated by either Party upon the material breach or default in any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement by the other Party by providing delivery of written notice of default to the defaulting Party and said Party’s failure to cure said material breach or default within thirty (30) days of the date of said notice. In addition, Marriott may terminate this Agreement without cause, for any reason and without further liability, at any time during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, by providing ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of termination to Company. Program Participants may elect to discontinue receiving the Program Services at any time during the Initial Term or Renewal Term by providing 30 days’ prior written notice of termination to Company.
4. Payment. The Program Participants, agreeing and selecting Program Services through the execution of the Program Participant Sign Up Form in Annex B, agree to pay the Company for the Program Services at the rates described in Annex B, or the previously agreed upon rates indicated in the Program Participant Sign Up Form, as applicable, and in accordance with the total number of contracted Program Participant rooms. Company will bill the Program Participants individually for Program Services on a quarterly basis on or after the first day following the quarter in which services are rendered. The Program Participants will pay amounts due in 15 days net. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company will look solely to the Program Participants, and not to Marriott, for payments due.
5. Trademark License. The Company hereby grants Marriott and each Program Participant a non-exclusive, nontransferable, royalty-free license during the term hereof to use, reproduce, and display the Company’s trademarks and charitable program services collateral as reasonable to inform Marriott’s and the Program Participant’s customers about the existence of this Agreement, to create collateral for Marriott and the Program Participants to use in connection with informing customers about the Company’s program services under this Agreement; provided that all uses of such materials must be pre-approved in writing by the Company, which approval may be granted or withheld in the Company’s sole discretion. Marriott and the Program Participants further agree to be bound by the Quality Standards applicable to the use of the Company’s trademarks found at http://cleantheworld.org/licensing.asp. Marriott hereby grants the Company a non-exclusive, nontransferable, royalty-free license during the term hereof to use, reproduce, and display Marriott’s trademarks or logos to promote Marriott as contemplated under this Agreement or as further agreed in a writing signed by the Parties; provided that each use by the Company of such Marriott trademarks or logos must be pre-approved in writing by Marriott; approval may be granted or withheld in Marriott’s sole discretion. In the event Marriott approves of any use, reproduction, or display of Marriott’s trademarks or logos, Marriott will provide Company with the appropriate verbiage and logo.

The Parties will not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, exemplary or consequential damages, loss of profits or investment, whether based in breach of contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, product liability or otherwise, even if the Parties or their affiliates have been advised of the possibility of such damages and even if a remedy set forth herein is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
9. Neither Marriott, nor Company shall permit any publications, articles, or announcements to be made relating to this Agreement or the activities under it, without the prior written approval of such other party. Each party shall afford the other a prior right to review, edit, and approve or reject any materials or communications concerning the activities described in this Agreement and the relationship between the parties.
