I Agree that, as an Independent Wine Guide (a ‘Wine Guide’) of Phoenix Vintners, LLC d/b/a Traveling Vineyard (the ‘Company), I am an independent contractor in the performance of all of my services under this Agreement and this Agreement is not to be interpreted as creating an employment, relationship, partnership, agency or joint venture with the Company. As an independent contractor, I will not be eligible to participate in, or receive benefits under, any employee benefit plan of the Company.

I understand that I shall control the manner and means by which I operate as a Wine Guide, subject to my compliance with this Agreement and the Company’s Wine Guide Policy & Procedures Manual (the

‘Manual).

2. Term and Termination. This Agreement is effective from the date of acceptance by the Company. The term of this Agreement (the ‘Term’), and each subsequent renewal, is one year. Unless a party notifies the other of its intent to terminate this Agreement, I understand that this Agreement is renewed automatically each year on its anniversary date. This Agreement may be terminated by either party at any time, with or without cause, upon written notice to the other party. Upon termination of this Agreement, I will (a) cease representing myself as a Wine Guide of the Company, (b) cease performing any and all Services hereunder as a Wine Guide; and (c) cease using any and all Marketing Materials, Confidential Information and Marks.
