First and foremost, thank you for allowing us to work with you as a Co-Broker; and be assured we
greatly appreciate the opportunity it presents. If the sale develops, we want all parties to feel they
were treated fairly. The best way to insure that happens is to put an agreement in writing so there is
less chance of confusion later. Therefore, if the following meets with your approval, your signature
below indicates that we mutually promise, covenant and agree as follows:

1. The Co-Broker must register the name, address, qualifications and interest of the prospective
Buyer. No one from our real estate firm will contact the registered Buyer without written
permission from the Co-Broker.
2. Should the registered prospective Buyer purchase the referenced property, upon closing and
funding, the Broker’s commission will be divided 60% to Listing Broker Jesse Lockhart,
Jr., and 40% to Co-Broker. If more than one Co-Broker is entitled to a portion of the
 commission upon closing of the sale of the referenced property, then all Co-Brokers will
share the 40% portion of the Co-Broker’s commission.
3. Co-Broker must contact the Listing Broker or his agent in advance and set a date and time to
view the referenced property.
4. Co-Broker must accompany the prospective Buyer to the first showing of the property to the
prospective Buyer.
5. Co-Broker must maintain contact with Listing Broker firm and the prospective Buyer during
showings, negotiations, presentation of earnest money contracts(s), and closing.
6. Brokers may refer potential Buyers to Listing Broker who will pay 20% referral fee of the
total real estate commission to the referral Broker when the Buyer completes the closing and
funding of the purchase of the property. A referral is complete upon registration of the
prospective Buyer by the referring Broker. In case of such referral, the referring Broker shall
not be required to assist Listing Broker in showing the property, accompany the prospective
Buyer to the closings, or otherwise assist in marketing the property with the prospective
Buyer.
7. If a Buyer’s Representative wishes to share in the Listing Broker’s commission, the Buyer’s
Representative must furnish his/her written Buyer’s representation agreement to the Listing
Broker. That agreement must disclose the amount of compensation to be paid by the Buyer to
his/her representative. The sharing of such compensation and the Listing Broker’s
commission between a Buyer’s Representative and the Listing Broker is subject to
negotiation.
8. This Co-Broker agreement terminates in 90 days from the date signed by both parties, unless
an earnest money contract involving the prospective Buyer and earnest money has been
receipted with a closing agent, in which case this agreement shall continue in effect until the
contract is terminated or the sale closes and funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is
no earnest money and earnest money contract involving the prospective Buyer receipted with
a closing agent when Broker’s Listing Agreement with the Seller terminates, then this
agreement shall then terminate even though such date is prior to said 90 days.
9. A broker or agent who represents a Buyer and is paid compensation by the buyer will not be
entitled to share a portion of the Listing Broker’s commission or any other compensation
from the proceeds of the sale.
