SALES & MARKETING PLAN
Overview
Herbalife’s Sales & Marketing Plan offers you unique opportunities which can lead to various levels of success; the
plan was developed by Herbalife’s founder, Mark Hughes. The result is arguably the best Sales & Marketing Plan
in the industry. Herbalife’s Sales & Marketing Plan pays a high percentage of product revenues to Associates in the
form of Retail and Wholesale Profits, Volume Rebate and bonus income and incentives. This tested, proven
business plan is designed to maximize rewards for effort and provide substantial and ongoing income.

The Herbalife business opportunity and the Sales & Marketing Plan are identical for every Associate. Each
Associate’s success is dependent on two primary factors:

• The time, effort and commitment put into the Herbalife business and
• The product sales made by an Associate and their downline organization.

These two factors raise the importance of an Associate’s responsibility to train, support and motivate their downline
organization.

The following pages describe the different levels of Herbalife’s Sales & Marketing Plan. Each level has specific
qualifications and associated benefits to reward Associates for their efforts and enhance their success.

Becoming an Associate – The Important First Step


There is no required purchase in order to become an Herbalife Associate and the sign up is free. You must compete
and submit a Herbalife Associateship Application and Agreement in order to receive an Herbalife Identification
Number and purchase products.

Registration
You officially become an Herbalife Associate when your properly completed Application has been processed and
accepted by Herbalife. The quickest and easiest method of completing your registration is online at
https://www.myherbalife.com/en-in/. You may also e-mail your Application or submit original application at walk-in
centers; however, this process might take a few days. Once your Application has been accepted, your contract with
Herbalife becomes effective immediately, giving you all the rights, responsibilities and privileges of an Herbalife
Associate.

Customers and Downline Associates


There are two type of customers:

• Preferred Customer – Anyone who submitted a Preferred Customership Application and Agreement and
is entitled to purchase Herbalife products for their household’s personal consumption at a discount directly
from the company.

• Retail Customer – Anyone who is not an Herbalife Associate or Preferred Customer who purchases
Herbalife products from a Associate.

Retail Customers and Preferred Customers may not sell products, recruit or sponsor others, or receive
compensation under the Sales & Marketing Plan.

A downline Associate is anyone who you introduced to the business opportunity and who has submitted their
Associateship Application and Agreement, which has been accepted by Herbalife, you become their sponsor, and
they become your downline.

Downline Levels
Your First Level Downline are those Associates you personally sponsored. When Associates in your First Level
sponsor other Associates, those new Associates become your Second Level. When your Second Level, in turn,
sponsors others, those they sponsor become the Third Level in your Herbalife organization.

Every Associate starts at the same place on the Herbalife Sales and Marketing Plan and each level has specific
qualifications, income opportunities and associated benefits to reward Associates for their sales.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 2 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Income Opportunities
The Herbalife Sales & Marketing Plan provides many opportunities to earn income and other rewards.

Immediate Retail Profit


The amount of profit that a Associate earns on a retail sale.
• Retail Profit is the difference between the price at which the Associate sells the product to the Retail
Customer and the Associate Price.
• Selling Price minus Associate Price = Retail Profit

Wholesale Profit (also known as Commissions)


When a Associate qualifies for a higher Discount Percentage than a Preferred Customer, or a Associate in their
downline, then the Upline Associate may earn a Wholesale Profit
• Wholesale Profit is equal to the Earn Base value of the product times the difference between the Upline
Discount Percentage and the Downline Discount Percentage.
• Earn Base x (Upline Discount Percentage minus Downline’s Discount Percentage) = Wholesale Profit

Monthly Volume Rebate Income


As a Supervisor, you can earn up to 5% on the Earn Base value of the sales from your three active levels of downline
Supervisors.

Monthly Production Bonus


TAB Team can earn an extra 2% to 7% Production Bonus.

Mark Hughes Bonus


A bonus that eligible President Team members and above may qualify to earn in recognition of outstanding
performance.

Understanding Volume
Throughout this manual, we use the term volume extensively. Volume is a key element in the Sales & Marketing
Plan and is the basis for qualifying and working your way to higher levels.

Each Herbalife product has a Volume Point value assigned to it that is equal in all countries (see Manual Order
Template and price lists for exact information). Official Herbalife literature items and sales tools do not count as
volume. As you order products, you accumulate Volume Points that are applicable to the products ordered. These
accumulated Volume Points become your sales production and are used for purposes of qualifications and benefits.

Volume is assigned to you in various ways depending on who purchased the product, their status and discount,
your own status and other factors of the Herbalife Sales & Marketing Plan. Volume is calculated on the accumulated
Volume Point value of products ordered in a Volume Month.

Explanation of Volume Month


Definition of Volume Month
Volume is assigned to and accumulated on a Volume Month basis. The Volume Month begins on the first business
day of the month and ends on the last business day of the month. Herbalife reserves the right to modify the Volume
Month as it deems appropriate.

Determination of Volume Month


Volume is assigned to the Volume Month in which the order is both placed and full payment is received by Herbalife.

Add-On Volume
The following conditions must be met for an order to be accepted as Add-On volume:

1. Order must be placed no later than the designated last order day of a Volume Month

2. Full payment must be made, or initiated, on the same last order day of the month. For example if payment is
mailed, the postmark must be stamped the designated last order day of a volume month. If the payment is a wire
transfer, direct deposit or other bank transaction, then it must be initiated on the last order day of a volume month.

3. Full payment must be received by Herbalife no later than the 5th day of the following month. If the 5th of the
month falls on a weekend or a holiday, then the payment must be received by the last business day before the 5th.
If for any reason, a payment is not accepted or received, then the order will be canceled and the Volume will not be
applied.

There are a number of ways volume is assigned in the Herbalife Sales & Marketing Plan. The following definitions
and examples illustrate these:

Personally Purchased Volume (PPV)


Personally Purchased Volume is the volume on orders purchased directly from Herbalife using your Herbalife
Identification Number.

Downline Volume (DLV)


Downline Volume is achieved on orders placed by your Preferred Customers, and non-Supervisor downline directly
from Herbalife.

Downline Volume Example


Purchases/ Discount % Downline Volume

A 2,500 Volume Points


= *
Supervisor @ 50% discount

B 500 Volume Points 900 Volume Points


=
Senior Consultant @ 35% Discount (C&D’s Volume)

C 500 Volume Points 400 Volume Points


=
Senior Consultant @ 35% Discount (D’s Volume)

D 400 Volume Points


= 0
Associate @ 25% Discount

*For Fully Qualified Supervisors, Downline Volume is counted towards Personal Volume or Group Volume.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 7 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Personal Volume (PV)
As a Fully Qualified Supervisor, Personal Volume is achieved from your own purchases and purchases made by
your Preferred Customers, and non-Supervisor downline, down to your first Fully Qualified Supervisor.

As a non-Supervisor Associate you may purchase directly from Herbalife, from your Sponsor or your first upline
Fully Qualified Supervisor. Please note that purchases made from your Sponsor or first upline Fully Qualified
Supervisor may not be used for Supervisor Qualifications, only orders placed with the Company count towards
these levels.

Therefore, if you are a Fully Qualified Supervisor, all of your own orders purchased at 50% as well as all orders
purchased by your Preferred Customers and Associates, at 15% to 42% discount count as your Personal Volume.

Personal Volume Example


Purchases/Discount % Personal Volume

1,000 Personally Purchased Volume


A 1,000 Volume Points + 1,800 Downline Volume Points (B,
=
Supervisor + B, C & D’s Volume C & D’s Volume)
= 2,800 Personal Volume

1,100 Personally Purchased Volume


1,100 Volume Points
B + 700 Downline Volume Points (C &
+ C & D’s Volume =
Success Builder D’s Volume)
@ 42% Discount
= 1,800 Volume Points

300 Personally Purchased Volume


300 Volume Points
C + 400 Downline Volume Points (D’s
+ D’s Volume =
Senior Consultant Volume)
@ 35% Discount
= 700 Volume Points

D 400 Volume Points


= 0
Associate @ 25% Discount

Group Volume (GV)


Group Volume is the volume on orders purchased at a temporary 50% discount by Qualifying Supervisor(s) during
the qualifying month.

This Temporary 50% Volume is accumulated as Personal Volume for the Qualifying Supervisor who is purchasing,
and it is Group Volume for the first upline Fully Qualified Supervisor. As a Fully Qualified Supervisor you will earn
Volume Rebate on Group Volume if all other Volume Rebate requirements are met. (Refer to the “Qualifying as a
Supervisor” and “Temporary 50%” sections of this book for complete details.)

Group Volume Example

Purchases/ Discount % Personal Volume

6,500 Personal Volume


A 2,500 Volume Points
= + 1,000 Group Volume
Supervisor + B & C’s Volume
= 7,500 Total Volume

1,000 Personally Purchased Volume


B 1,000 Volume Points

= 5,000 Volume Points

C 4,000 Accumulated Volume


= 4,000 Volume Points
Associate Points

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 8 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Total Volume (TV)
Total Volume is the sum of Personal Volume plus Group Volume. (See “Group Volume Example” for Supervisor A’s
Total Volume.) Total Volume is the factor on which some qualifications are based.

Organizational Volume (OV)


Organizational Volume is the accumulated Volume amount on which a Supervisor earns Volume Rebate. (See the
“Organizational Volume Example” that follows.)

Organization Volume Example

A Supervisor 2,500 Volume Points

1st Level 10,000 Total


Supervisor Volume Points

2nd Level 10,000 Total = 30,000


Supervisor Volume Points Organization Volume

3rd Level 10,000 Personal


Supervisor Volume Points

Encumbered and Unencumbered Volume


Encumbered Volume
Encumbered Volume is volume being used by your downline to qualify for Supervisor.

Unencumbered Volume
Unencumbered Volume is volume not being used for Supervisor qualifications by your downline.

The example that follows illustrates the use of Encumbered and Unencumbered Volume for each of the Associates.

Encumbered and Unencumbered Volume

A 2,500 Total Volume Points 2,500 Unencumbered for A


=
Supervisor + B & C’s Volume 5,000 Encumbered for A

B 1,000 Total Volume Points 1,000 Unencumbered for B


=
Qualifying Supervisor + C’s Volume 4,000 Encumbered for B

C 4,000 Accumulated
= 4,000 Unencumbered for C
Qualifying Supervisor Total Volume Points

ASSOCITE BENEFITS

Understanding Retail and Wholesale Profit


Throughout this document we refer to retail and wholesale profit as some of the Associate benefits. Please review
the material below to better understand these terms and how retail and wholesale profits are calculated:

Maximum Retail Price (“MRP”):


• Maximum Retail Price is the maximum price at which Associates can sell Herbalife Products to their
customers. MRP is printed on each Product and is inclusive of all taxes.

Selling Price:
• Each Associate is free to set their own selling price to their customers, which may be equal to or less than the
MRP.

Retail Price:
• This is the price set for all Associates as per the price lists approved from time to time (Before Taxes) from
which the Discount Amount is reduced.

Earn Base:
• This is the monetary value assigned to each Herbalife Product on which all discount and earning calculations
are based.

Discount Percentage:
• This is the percentage of discount on the Earn Base that an Associate is entitled to, based on their purchase
performance and their qualification level in the Marketing Plan.
• The Discount Percentage may range from 25% to 50%.
• The Discount Percentage is always applied to the Earn Base to determine the Discount Amount.
Discount Amount:
• This is the absolute amount of the discount calculated on Earn Base and is reduced from the Retail Price.
• Discount Percentage x Earn Base = Discount Amount.

Purchase Price:
• This is the price that an Associate pays for purchase of Herbalife Products after applying Discount Amount.
Purchase Price includes Delivery Charge and Taxes.
• Purchase Price = Retail Price – Discount Amount + Delivery Charges + Taxes

Retail Profit:
• This is the amount of profit that an Associate earns on a retail sale.
• Retail Profit is the difference between the price at which the Associate sells the product to the customer (i.e.
Selling Price) and the Purchase Price.
• Selling Price – Purchase Price = Retail Profit
• Retail Profit percentage is not the same as the Discount Percentage because:
a. Each Associate can set their own selling price to their customer subject to the cap of the Maximum
Retail Price (“MRP”).
b. Discount Percentage is calculated on Earn Base, which is lower than Retail Price.
• GST payable varies based on whether the associate is registered or not. Please consult your tax advisor for
ascertaining your respective tax liability.

Wholesale Profit (Commissions)


• When an Associate qualifies for a higher Discount Percentage than an Associate in their downline, then the
Upline Associate may earn a Wholesale Profit.
• Wholesale Profit is equal to the Earn Base value of the product, times the difference between the Upline
Discount Percentage and the Downline Discount Percentage.
• Earn Base x (Upline Discount Percentage – Downline’s Discount Percentage) = Wholesale Profit.
• Hence, the wholesale profit represents commission/ allowance paid to the Associates

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 10 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Retail and Wholesale Profit Example

FORMULA 1
• Volume Points: 21.75
• MRP: INR 2,276
• Retail Price: INR 1,928
• Earn Base: INR 1,668

Retail Profit Example:


Arun is a Supervisor, with a Discount Percentage of 50%. Arun orders 10 Units of Herbalife Formula 1.

• Arun’s Discount Amount is INR 8,340. The Discount Amount is calculated by taking the Earn Base ( 1668)
x Discount Percentage (50%) x No. of Units of Purchase

• Arun’s Purchase Price is INR 12909. This is calculated by taking the Retail Price (INR 19,280 ) – Discount
Amount (INR 8,340 ) + Delivery Charges (NIL) + Taxes (INR 1,969)

* Please consult your tax advisor for ascertaining your GST liability.

• Assume that Arun sells 10 Units of Formula 1 to customers at MRP (INR 22,760). In that situation, Arun’s
Retail Profit is INR 9,851. Retail Profit is calculated by taking the MRP (INR 22,760) – Purchase Price (INR
12,909)

Wholesale Profit Example:

Arun’s downline (Santosh) is a Senior Consultant at a 35% Discount Percentage who also sells 10 Units of Herbalife
Formula 1

• Santosh’s Discount Amount is INR 5,838. The Discount Amount is calculated by taking the Earn Base (INR
1,668) x Discount Percentage (35%) x No. of Units of Purchase

• Santosh’s Purchase Price is INR 15,862. This is calculated by taking the Retail Price (INR19,280) – Discount
Amount(INR5,838) + Delivery Charges (NIL) + Taxes (INR 2,420)

* Please consult your tax advisor for ascertaining your GST liability.

• Since Arun’s Discount Percentage is 50% and Santosh’s Discount Percentage is 35%, Arun also earns a
Wholesale Profit on Santosh’s sale/order
• Arun’s Wholesale Profit is INR 16,680 x 15% (50%-35%) = INR. Earn Base x (Arun’s Discount Percentage
– Santosh’s Discount Percentage) = Wholesale Profit

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 11 of 26 Revision: May 2023


SENIOR CONSULTANT
Improve Your Profits With the Discount Scale
As you and your non-Supervisor Downline sell more Herbalife products, your Total Volume increases and you may
reach the next level of Senior Consultant. As such, you become eligible to purchase products at a 35% or 42%
discount off the Earn Base, giving you a greater profit margin.

Discount Scale
As a Associate you may purchase at a 25% discount on all orders until you become eligible for a higher discount
by achieving the Senior Consultant level. Thereafter, your discount on purchases will be determined by the Discount
Scale as indicated below at no less than a 35% discount.

A Senior Consultant is eligible to:


• Purchase at 35% or 42% immediately after qualifying for this status
• Earn a 35% or 42% Retail Profit
• Earn up to 27% Wholesale Profit (Commissions) on the Earn Base value from purchases made by your downline
Associates at a 25% or 35% discount, or Preferred Customers between 15% - 35% discount

Volume Points accumulate either from orders placed by you directly with Herbalife, which are referred to
as Personally Purchased Volume, or from orders your Preferred Customers and Associates place with
Herbalife, which are called Downline Volume. Both types of volume may be used to achieve Senior
Consultant Level at a 35% or 42% discount.

Supervisor” for details (Must requalify annually).

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 12 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Note:
Your Personal Volume, plus your downline’s Volume, count as your Total Volume. Once you are on the Discount
Scale, your discount will never be less than 35% for as long as you remain an active Associate and/or until you
become eligible to a higher discount. The more you sell, the greater your profit potential. Remember that each
Volume Month you begin again at a 35% discount and can work your way up to 42% and 50% discount.

Success Builder
As an Herbalife Associate, you have an opportunity to purchase a single order of 1,000 Volume Points directly from
Herbalife at a 42% discount. This qualifies you to become a Success Builder. As a Success Builder, you will be able
to order at a 42% discount for the remainder of the Volume Month.

Associates (non-Supervisors) who do not achieve Success Builder are able to order at a 42% once they have
accumulated 2,000 Volume Points in one to two months or have achieved the Qualified Producer level.

• The Success Builder level is a Personally Purchased Volume qualification; Downline Volume may not be used
toward this discount opportunity.

Qualified Producer
You have the opportunity to achieve Qualified Producer status by accumulating 2,500 Volume Points within 1-6
months of which 1,500 points can be from Downline Volume with the remaining 1,000 as Personally Purchased
Volume. Volume Points accumulated by your Personal Preferred Customers will contribute to your Personally
Purchased Volume requirement. All volume achieved towards this qualification must be from orders purchased
directly from Herbalife.

You will automatically receive the 42% once the qualification has been achieved; and will be updated to this status
on the 1st of the month following the month your qualification volume was achieved.

A Qualified Producer is eligible to:


• Purchase at 42% immediately after qualifying for this status
• Earn a 42% Retail Profit
• Earn up to 27% Wholesale Profit (Commissions) on the Earn Base value from purchases made by your downline
Associates at a 25% or 35% discount, or Preferred Customers between 15% - 35% discount.

Once you achieve Qualified Producer status, all purchases will be at a discount of no less than 42% as long as your
Annual Services Fee remains current and paid.

Fully Qualified Supervisor


At the Supervisor status you will earn the highest discount of 50%, plus Retail and Wholesale Profit, and become
eligible to earn Volume Rebate (VR).

A Fully Qualified Supervisor is eligible to:


• Earn a 50% Retail Profit
• Earn up to 35% Wholesale Profit (Commission) on the Earn Base value from purchases made by your downline
Associates at a 25% - 42% discount, or Preferred Customers between 15% - 35% discount
• Earn VR of 1% to 5% on their first, second and third-level active Supervisor
• Attend special workshops and training sessions
• Qualify for special Supervisor recognition

Associates who achieved the level of Supervisors are often referred to as Associates or Herbalife Independent
Associates.

As a Supervisor, purchases may only be made by you directly from Herbalife.

Qualifying as a Supervisor
There are three ways to qualify as a Supervisor:
• One-Month Qualification: Achieve 4,000 Volume Points in one Volume Month (with a minimum 1,000 of those
4,000 Volume Points Unencumbered).
• Two-Month Qualification: Achieve 4,000 Volume Points over two consecutive months (with a minimum of 1,000
of those 4,000 Volume Points Unencumbered over the same two-month period.
• Accumulated Qualification: Achieve 4,000 Volume Points within 12 months (of which a minimum of three months
is required). You can use up to 2,000 Downline Volume Points with the remaining 2,000 as Personally
Purchased Volume. Volume Points accumulated by your Personal Preferred Customers will contribute to your
Personally Purchased Volume Point requirement.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 13 of 26 Revision: May 2023


For all methods of Supervisor Qualification, once achieved, you are automatically updated to Supervisor status on
the 1st of the month following completion of your qualification.

Qualifying Supervisor
Eligibility for Temporary 50% Discount
Once you have achieved the required Volume Points toward Supervisor Qualification you will be considered a
Qualifying Supervisor until the 1st of the following month, when you will become a Fully Qualified Supervisor.
As a Qualifying Supervisor, you are eligible for a temporary 50% discount for the remainder of the Volume Month
in which your qualifying Volume Points were achieved.

Orders purchased at a 50% discount must be purchased directly from Herbalife.

The Volume from orders purchased at a Temporary 50% is considered Personally Purchased Volume for the
purchaser and Group Volume for the Fully Qualified Supervisor.

Matching Volume
Matching Volume is the Personal and Total Volume a Supervisor must have in order to validate the Supervisor
qualifications in your downline.

Matching Volume is how Herbalife verifies and validates the qualification of new Supervisors. Whenever a
Supervisor sponsors an Associate to the Supervisor position, the sponsoring Supervisor’s Total Volume must be at
least the same as the Total Volume of their downline Associate (s) qualifying within that same month. Without
adequate Matching Volume, the new Supervisor will be moved to the next upline Supervisor.

The following Matching Volume example illustrates the amount of Personal Volume and Total Volume that must be
achieved by the sponsoring Supervisor for the downline Associates who are qualifying for Supervisor. In this
example, “A” (the sponsoring Supervisor) must have at least 4,000 Personal Volume Points and at least 1,000
Group Volume Points in the month that “B” and “C” are qualifying for Supervisor. This volume obligation for the
Supervisor is considered to be their Matching Volume requirement.

Matching Volume Example


Matching Volume Requirement for Supervisor “A”
A
4,000 Personal Volume
Sponsoring
+ 1,000 Group Volume
Supervisor
= 5,000 Total Volume

B
1,000 Volume Points 1,000 Group
Qualifying =
@ Temporary 50% Discount Volume for “A”
Supervisor

C
4,000 Accumulated 4,000 Personal
Qualifying =
Volume Points Volume for “A”
Supervisor

Insufficient Matching Volume


As the first upline Fully Qualified Supervisor, if you do not have enough Volume in the qualifying month(s) to
substantiate your donwline’s Supervisor qualification you will be “short” Matching Volume. Herbalife will notify you
of the insufficient Volume and allow you to place a Matching Volume Order for the amount you are short. The
Member Services Department will be authorized to accept the Matching Volume Order for the appropriate month.

To place this volume, the order must be clearly identified a “Matching Volume Order for Month of ______________.”

Matching Volume Order


To receive proper credit for the Matching Volume Order, the order must be clearly identified as Matching Volume
Order for the appropriate month and year, with full payment included. A Matching Volume Order can only be
accepted by Herbalife if the Company has identified a Matching Volume problem and notified you accordingly, and
has authorized the Member Services Department to accept the order from you as the sponsoring Supervisor. This
order will be applied to the Volume Month specified.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 14 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Appropriate adjustments will be made on Matching Volume order to your upline Volume Rebate and Production
Bonus receiving Supervisors. However, Volume Rebate points and TAB Team production Bonuses percentages
will not be adjusted when a Matching Volume Order is placed after the Volume Month in question. If multiple
occurrences of Matching Volume take place, as the Sponsoring Supervisor, you will not be paid the Volume Rebate
earnings for up to four months on the qualifying line and this earning will be paid to the next upline Volume Rebate
receiving Supervisor.

Failure to Match Volume


In order to avoid a penalty, you must place the Matching Volume Order once you have received notification from
Herbalife.

If you are short volume and fail to place an order to match that Volume, a Matching Volume Penalty will be assessed.
The penalty is that you will permanently lose the Supervisor who qualified the month in question and that
Supervisor’s downline.

Failure to Qualify as a Supervisor


If your sponsored downline becomes a Fully Qualified Supervisor before you do, you will have one year from the
date of your downline’s qualification to also become a Fully Qualified Supervisor.

If you do not become a Fully Qualified Supervisor within the one year following your downline’s Supervisor
qualification, you will permanently lose that downline to your first upline Supervisor at the end of your downline
Supervisor's first requalification year.

Example:

February 2014
Sponsor loses
08/01/2012 Qualified Downline
Downline Supervisor’s is Sponsor hasn’t
Qualification Month become a Fully
Qualified Supervisor

08/01/2012 – 01/31/2014

Sponsor’s Opportunity to Qualify for Supervisor

Supervisor Requalification
Once you become Supervisor status and above you must requalify your Supervisor status annually between
February 1 and January 31 to maintain your rights and privileges. The requalification requirements for this are
described below.

• One-Month Qualification: Achieve 4,000 Volume Points in one Volume Month (with a minimum 1,000 of those
4,000 Volume Points unencumbered).

• Two-Month Qualification: Achieve 4,000 Volume Points over two consecutive months (with a minimum of 1,000
of those 4,000 Volume Points Unencumbered over the same two-month period.)

• Twelve-Month Requalification: Accumulate 10,000 Unencumbered Total Volume Points over the 12-month
Requalification period.

Or,

• Accumulate 2,000 Unencumbered Total Volume Points over the 12-month requalification period.

When requalifying by accumulating 2,000 Unencumbered Volume Points between February 1 and January 31 you
will retain your Supervisor status and 50% buying privileges. However, any downline lineage that includes a
Supervisor will be lost and moved to your next upline Fully Qualified Supervisor.

You will automatically requalify as a Supervisor each year if the volume requirements are met during the qualification
period. As a reminder, you have the advantage of receiving a 50% discount on your requalification orders.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 15 of 26 Revision: May 2023


If you do not complete your Supervisor Requalification you will lose all rights and privileges of a Supervisor, including
the loss of any lineage that includes a Supervisor. In this case, the entire downline lineage will be moved to your
next eligible upline Fully Qualified Supervisor.

As a Supervisor if you fail to requalify each year by January 31 you will be demoted to the position of Qualified
Producer.

Three Levels of Success


The people you personally sponsor as Herbalife Associates are known as your First Level. They may be friends or
family or business associates, or even people you have just met. You can personally sponsor as many people as
you want in any country in which Herbalife officially operates. When these Associates in your First Level sponsor
other Associates those new Associates become your second level. When your Second Level, in turn, sponsor
others, those they sponsor become the third level in your Herbalife organization.

By training your Associates and encouraging them to follow your example, some may choose to set their goals and
qualify at the Supervisor level. As a Supervisor with Fully Qualified or Qualifying Supervisors in your first three
levels, you may qualify to earn Volume Rebate between 1% to 5% of your Organizational Volume.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 16 of 26 Revision: May 2023


VOLUME REBATE INCOME
Payment of Volume Rebates
Your Volume Rebate percentage is based on your Total Volume for each month, if your Volume Points are less
than 500 Volume Points, then no Volume Rebates are earned. If you produce 2,500 Volume Points or more, then
a maximum 5% is earned on three active downline levels. The following Volume Rebate scale shows the volume
requirements that you must meet as a Supervisor every month to earn Volume Rebates.

Volume Rebate Scale

Your Total Volume Rebate


Volume Points Earning %

0 – 499 0%

500 – 999 1%

1,000 – 1,499 2%

1,500 – 1,999 3%

2,000 – 2,499 4%

2,500 plus 5%

Volume Rebates are paid as follows:


In the following example, at the maximum 5%, your Volume Rebate is calculated on 30,000 Organizational Sale
Volume, which gives you 1,500 Volume Rebate Points. Volume Rebate Points are used for qualification purposes.
Keep in mind, earnings are calculated on the Earn Base value of the products in the country from which the product
is ordered. In certain countries, these Volume Rebate earnings are converted to your local currency.

Volume Rebate Example


2,500 Your Total Volume Rebate
YOU =
Volume Points 1,500 Volume Rebate Points

First-Level 10,000
= 5% = 500 Volume Rebate Points
Supervisor Volume Points

Second-Level 10,000
= 5% = 500 Volume Rebate Points
Supervisor Volume Points

Third-Level 10,000
= 5% = 500 Volume Rebate Points
Supervisor Volume Points

Additional Requirements
As a Supervisor who meets the specified requirements to earn Volume Rebates you must also comply with
Herbalife’s 10 Retail Customers Rule and the 70% Rule, to earn and receive both Volume Rebates and Production
Bonus. You must confirm your adherence to these requirements by submitting the Earnings Certification Form each
month. If you fail to comply with either of these rules, the Volume Rebates and Production Bonus will not be paid to
you.

Volume Rebate Roll-Up


As a Supervisor, you also have the opportunity to earn Volume Rebate Roll-Ups. Volume Rebate Roll-Ups are paid
to the appropriate qualified upline Supervisor(s) when any downline Volume Rebate contributing Supervisor earns
less than the maximum 5% payout. This “roll-up” percentage is the difference between the 5% maximum Volume
Rebate and the actual percentage earned by the downline Volume Rebate contributing Supervisor.

To be eligible for Volume Rebate Roll-Ups, as a Supervisor you must be at the maximum 5% earning level, based
on the Volume Rebate Sliding Scale. You may not earn more than 5% Volume Rebate on any order.

TAB TEAM PRODUCTION BONUS
PAYOUT GUIDELINES
To help you better understand the TAB Team Production Bonus [Production Bonus] Payout, we’ve put together the
following guidelines.

• When a TAB Team in your downline earns a Production Bonus at a lower % level than you, you will earn the %
difference on their downline. For example, if you earn a Production Bonus at the 6% level and your downline
TAB Team earns a Production Bonus at the 2% level, you will earn 6% on that TAB Team and the remaining
4% Production Bonus on their downline organization down to the next Production Bonus earner. Your
Production Bonus earnings below those downline Production Bonus earners will depend upon the earning % of
each Production Bonus earner.
• When a downline TAB Team earns Production Bonus at the same % level as you, you will earn on that TAB
Team but you will be unable to earn a Production Bonus on their downline. This is commonly referred to as
“Cut-Off”.
• When a downline TAB Team earns a Production Bonus at a higher level than you, you will be unable to earn a
Production Bonus on that downline and their organization. This is commonly referred to as “Blocking”.
• Remember, to be eligible to receive the Production Bonus, your completed TAB Team Production Bonus
Acknowledgment Form must have been accepted and approved by Herbalife, and all other terms and conditions
must be met.

just that:

Requalification
To remain at your earning level, simply achieve three consecutive months of Volume Rebate Point requirements
(same as original qualification) every year during your requalification period.

India - Sales & Marketing Plan Page 23 of 26 Revision: May 2023


Please note: When you qualify for any Team status, you retain that status regardless of your Production Bonus
earning % level (unless you achieve a higher TAB Team status or are demoted as a Supervisor).

If you don’t requalify for any Production Bonus earning % level during your last requalification period and later
qualify for the same level, you will need to observe the waiting period before you start earning at that level.

Requalification Period
To allow you ample time to requalify and continue to earn your Production Bonus, you have a 12-month time frame
from your last Team qualification/requalification date.
