In either  case,  you  must  be  licensed  as  necessary  to  perform your obligations as an agent to your Clients in the applicable jurisdiction.

  • Subject to these Broker ToS, Brokers may receive Fees when they introduce Clients to Ventra7 and Actively Represent such Clients in the process of entering into agreements with Ventra7, as further described below.

    When a Broker introduces a specific Client to Ventra7 by way of a Submission, the entity becomes an “Introduced Entity”. For an Introduced Entity to be considered a qualified introduction for which Broker may receive Fees (such transaction, a “Referral”, and the entity then a “Referred Entity”), such Introduced Entity must:

    • enter into a Ventra7 representation agreement with a Booking as a Ventra7 building no later than three (3) months from the date of the Introduced Entity’s most recent interaction with the Ventra7 sales team regarding the such Property Listing; and
    • not be a subsidiary, affiliate, or entity under common control of either Broker or Broker’s firm or any entity in which Broker or Broker’s firm has or shares an interest or parent entity.

    Furthermore, a Broker will only be eligible to receive Fees if such Broker (a) is engaged in the Active Representation of the Client and their negotiation of a definitive agreement with Ventra7; (b) promotes Ventra7 to the Client; and (c) engages in reasonable continuing assistance for the representation agreement between Ventra7 and the Introduced Entity. You may be required to provide Ventra7 with a confirmation of your representation of Client, and we reserve the right to request confirmation of such arrangement from any Introduced Entity.

    An Introduced Entity will have the opportunity to inform us that (i) it is not looking for a Ventra7 representation and/or (ii) it has not given authorization to you in connection with the introduction. If the Introduced Entity informs us that it has not given authorization to you, your Submission (as defined below) shall be null and void, you will not be eligible for Fees even if such Introduced Entity otherwise becomes a Ventra7 property, and you may be subject to further consequences, as set forth in these Broker ToS.

    You must complete a separate Submission for each Client per transaction and/or property pursuant to the Broker Partnership Program. You will not receive credit for any other transaction unless you have completed and submitted a separate Submission identifying the applicable transaction. Ventra7 will assume that you do not represent the Introduced Entity in transactions not specified by you in a Submission. Submissions that are incomplete or that do not adhere to the procedures outlined in these Broker ToS will not be recognized as valid by Ventra7 or the Broker Partnerships Team and will not be  processed for payment.  Please note that       all Submissions are conditionally accepted and not fully confirmed until a member of  the Broker Partnerships team and the Client (if applicable) approves and confirms  your involvement in the Submission.

    By agreeing to these Broker ToS, you hereby represent and warrant that you have obtained consent from the Introduced Entity to send the Introduced Entity’s contact information to Ventra7 in connection with your participation in the Broker Partnership Program, and you believe in good faith that the Introduced Entity desires to become a represented property of Ventra7’s portfolio as the property named in your Submission. Further, to the extent required by applicable  law,  you  will  inform  the  Introduced  Entity  of  our  privacy  policy,  available https://ventra7.com/privacy-policy.

    In the event that two (or more) entities are claiming ownership over the same Introduced Entity, Ventra7 shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to defer to the primary decision maker at the Introduced Entity to identify and confirm in writing the broker’s involvement in the Referral.

  • Prior to the parties initiating negotiations, we will not contact the Introduced Entity unless you select the “I give Ventra7 permission to contact this client” option in the Broker portal upon completing a Submission, except as otherwise provided herein or due to extraordinary circumstances. As the acting Broker, you will be expected to handle communications between the Ventra7 Sales Team and the Introduced Entity (unless the Introduced Entity contacts the Ventra7 Sales Team directly) and you will be required to submit to Ventra7 a confirmation of your representation of the Introduced Entity.

You will not be eligible to receive any Fees for a Referred Entity if you fail to complete the vendor vetting process within twelve (12) months of the date of execution of that Referred Entity’s first Representation agreement.

    A deal constitutes “New Business” if a Referred Entity enters into a representation agreement with a commitment term for property listing in a building in which that Referred Entity has not previously entered into a Representation agreement for Property Listing. In addition, Expansions resulting in (i) a Referred Entity entering into a representation agreement for Property Listing(s) for an additional five (5) or more properties, beyond such Referred Entity’s already-existing Property Listing, and (ii) such new representation agreement contains a commitment term of twenty-four (24) months or greater, shall be considered New Business for all purposes hereunder.

    A deal constitutes an “Expansion” if a Referred Entity, which has an existing Representation agreement with a commitment term for Property Listing, enters into an agreement with Ventra7 for additional Property Listing within the same building resulting in a net revenue growth for Ventra7. Expansions does not include Property Listing additions made in connection with a Renewal (see below).

    A deal constitutes a “Renewal” if a Referred Entity, which has an existing Representation agreement for Property Listing with Ventra7, enters into an agreement before the termination of the Referred Entity’s then-current Representation term, (a) for a new commitment term and (b) pertaining to the same Property Listing set forth in the initial Representation agreement. A Renewal also includes situations where the new commitment term applies to additional Property Listing not included as part of the original Representation agreement.

    A deal constitutes a “Transfer” if a Referred Entity, which has an existing Representation agreement with a commitment term for Property Listing with Ventra7, moves from one Ventra7 building to another.

    Referrals of persons or entities that previously held, but no longer hold, Property Listing pursuant to a Representation agreement with Ventra7 (“Returning Member(s)”), shall be treated as either a Renewal, Expansion, or Transfer, as applicable, except that if, as of the date of Submission, three (3) months or more have passed since the Returning Member’s move-out from their most recent Ventra7 space, such Returning Member shall be treated as New Business hereunder. The policy for Returning Members applies regardless of whether a Returning Member returns to the same or a different Ventra7 location.

  • To be eligible for Fees, you must provide us with valid bank account information. Failure to provide bank information and to keep such information up-to-date may result in the delay or forfeiture of Fees for which Ventra7 will not be responsible.

    Fees will be paid in the same currency paid by the Referred Entity pursuant to the applicable Representation agreement. Fee amounts may be reduced for discounts, deductions, reductions in space,   promotions,   credits,   refunds,   chargebacks,   and   taxes  (collectively, “Deductions”). Ventra7 reserves the right to choose the mode of payment. VAT/GST requirements may depend both on the  location  of  the  Broker  as  well  as  the  location  of  the Referred Entity. VAT determinations will be made at the time of processing and will be communicated to you prior to payment on the self-billing invoice or as otherwise provided in this Section IV.

  • Representation Agreements with Open Conditions and/or  Contingencies.  In  the  event  a  Referred Entity signs a Representation agreement with Ventra7 that is in any way conditional or contingent on acts by any party, including, but not limited to, agreements that are conditioned on Ventra7 for the relevant Property Listing, then the Fees for such Referral shall be paid within sixty (60) days from the date the Representation agreement is no longer conditioned and/or contingent on further action(s) by any party.

    Contractual Early Termination Options. While the amount of the Fee for Representation agreements with contractual early termination options is based on the total earned via Bookings Fees regardless of any early termination option, if a Representation agreement contains a contractual early termination option,  any  initial  payments  will  include  only eligible Fees up  to  the  first  contractual  termination  date.  Subsequent  payments  will include eligible Fees up to the next contractual termination date. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if a Referred Entity exercises an early termination option, the Broker shall  not be eligible for Fees that would have otherwise accrued after such termination.

    Referred Entity Delays or Fails to Pay Service Retainer. In the case of New Business, the  payment of any lump-sum Fees shall be paid in accordance with the terms set forth herein, provided that if any Referred Entity referred by you (a) fails to pay in full the service retainer due under such entity’s Representation agreement, or (b) terminates the Representation agreement prior to the start date specified therein, Fees for any subsequent Referred Entities shall be paid on the later of (x) the start date set forth in the applicable Referred Entity’s Representation agreement, or (y) our receipt in full of the service retainer under such Referred Entity’s Representation agreement.

    Referred Entity Fails to comply or cooperate. In the event that any Referred Entity supplied by Broker fails to move into a Property Listing for any reason, Ventra7 shall be entitled to withhold any Fee payment that would have been due under such Representation agreement and/or to a return of any Fees already paid to Broker for such Referral.

    Cross-Border Transactions. A “Cross-Border Transaction” is a payment that involves individuals, corporations, settlement institutions, central banks or a combination thereof, in at least two different countries.

You will receive an email confirmation, which may include a self-billing invoice from Ventra7, setting forth the applicable Fees due and containing such other details as Ventra7 may choose to include, in its sole discretion. You agree that such email shall serve as a valid invoice and record of transaction. If you do not receive such an email, please contact Brokers@Ventra7.com.

  • All disputes regarding Fees or any other payment amounts must be communicated in writing either by emailing Brokers@Ventra7.com or responding to the relevant payment confirmation email from Ventra7. You must communicate a dispute within five (5) business days of receipt of the disputed email invoice, and failure to do so shall act as a waiver of any disputes related to the amounts described therein. Ventra7 reserves the right to withhold payment in the event of a bona fide dispute, as determined in Ventra7’s sole discretion.

  • In the event that you are paid more than your entitled Fees, whether as a result of calculation errors, unaccounted-for Deductions, or for any other reason, you shall promptly repay Ventra7 such overpaid amounts, as determined by Ventra7. If you fail to promptly return such overpaid amounts, Ventra7 may offset any such amounts from future payments to you, and you may be suspended or disqualified from the Broker Partnership Program, in Ventra7’s sole discretion. The foregoing shall be in addition to all rights and remedies Ventra7 may seek in equity or at law.

    In the event that the Referred Entity reduces its total committed Dedicate Space or terminates their Ventra7 Representation agreement after move-in but before the end of their commitment term, the Broker will not be responsible for the repayment of any accrued and already-paid Fees related to such Referral. Instead, the Referred Entity shall be responsible for repayment of any applicable Fees to Ventra7.
