3. Salesperson/Enrollee wishes to enter into an agreement with Broker to allow Salesperson/Enrollee to be licensed to the Broker and it is deemed to be to the mutual advantage of Broker and Salesperson/Enrollee to be bound by the terms and condition of this Agreement.

3. Salesperson/Enrollee shall pay the cost for the license transfer to the State of Michigan and shall also pay to Broker a $35 annual administration fee on or before November 30th. Salesperson/Enrollee’s license will be returned to the State of Michigan on December 1st in the event of Salesperson/Enrollee’s nonpayment of the administration fee. This fee will be waived if Salesperson/Enrollee earns a commission check from the Broker in the current calendar year.

6. The Broker shall not be liable to the Salesperson/Enrollee for any expenses or lawsuits incurred by him/her or for any of his/her acts, nor shall the Salesperson/Enrollee have any authority to bind the Broker by any promise or representation. Salesperson/Enrollee agrees to fully indemnify and hold Broker harmless from any claim for damages asserted against the Broker by reason of any act or omission by Salesperson/Enrollee. Such indemnification includes reasonable attorney’s fees, costs, and any other expenses incurred by Broker in defense of any such claim. Further, Salesperson/Enrollee acknowledges that he/she and Broker are governed by the licensing statutes and regulations, which Salesperson/Enrollee agrees to comply with in all respects.
