EXHIBIT 10.11

SALES REPRESENTATIVE AGREEMENT

This Sales Representative Agreement (hereinafter called “Agreement”), to be effective as of this 29th day of June, 2016 (hereinafter the “Effective Date”), is by and between Cherubim Interests, LLC., dba BCS USA, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cherubim Interests, Inc.  (“BCS”), a Nevada corporation having its principal place of business at 1304 Norwood Dr., Bedford, TX 76022 and United Cannabis Corporation, a Colorado corporation having its principal place of business at 1600 Broadway, Suite 1600, Denver, Colorado 80202 (“UCC”).  Throughout this agreement, BCS and UCC may each be referred to as “Party” and collectively the “Parties.”

In consideration of these premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1.

EXCLUSIVE MARKET AND TERRITORY

1.1

BCS grants UCC the exclusive and non-assignable right to solicit orders for the Product throughout the world (the “Territory”).  UCC has authority to solicit orders only and has no authority to accept orders.  All orders solicited by UCC shall be subject to acceptance by BCS.

1.2

The term “Product” shall mean any portable testing and/or extraction laboratory(s)/facility(s) offered by BCS for sale.  A description of the initial Product is attached here as Exhibit A. 

1.3

From time to time, UCC shall generate sales call reports, sales forecasts, and such other information pertinent to UCC’s performance hereunder and shall keep BCS informed as to competitive and economic conditions which may affect the marketing or sales of the Products.

2.

PURCHASE ORDERS AND SHIPMENTS

2.1

UCC shall order the Product by written notice to BCS.  Each purchase order shall specify the number of units to be shipped, the desired method of shipment, the desired shipment date, and the delivery site.  BCS shall indicate its acceptance of such purchase order by returning a signed copy to UCC.  BCS agrees to ship units as close as possible to the delivery schedule set forth in each order as accepted by BCS, unless BCS otherwise indicates in writing.  Shipping dates are approximate and are based, to a great extent, on prompt receipt by BCS of all necessary ordering information from UCC.  BCS shall not be required to honor any purchase order which: (a) specifies a shipping date earlier than BCS’s then current delivery schedule for the date such purchase order is received by BCS and/or (b) specifies a quantity to be delivered in any one month within the current delivery schedule which is greater than 25% of the total quantity in the preceding sixty (60) day period.

1

 

2.2

All shipments of the Product shall be made FOB BCS’s plant and liability for loss or damage in transit, or thereafter, shall pass to the customer upon BCS’s delivery of the Product to a common carrier for shipment.  The customer shall bear all costs of transportation, insurance and import/export duties.  BCS shall provide written notice to the customer and UCC when orders are ready for shipment.  BCS shall not be in default by reason of any failure in its performance under this Agreement if such failure results from, whether directly or indirectly, fire, explosion, strike, freight embargo, Act of God or of the public enemy, war, civil disturbance, act of any government, de jure or de facto, or agency or official thereof, material or labor shortage, transportation contingencies, unusually severe weather, default of any other manufacturer or a supplier or subcontractor, quarantine, restriction, epidemic, or catastrophe, lack of timely instructions or essential information from UCC, or otherwise arisen out of causes beyond the control of BCS.  BCS will not at any time be liable for any incidental, special or consequential damages.

3.

PAYMENTS AND COMMISSIONS

3.1

All payments required under this Agreement shall be made by the customer as follows:

·

A deposit equal to 50% of the total amount of the order upon submittal of the Purchase Order.

·

The remaining balance is due in full upon the completion of 60% of the construction of all Products specified in the applicable Purchase Order.  A Product is considered 60% complete upon completion of three walls.  BCS shall provide written notice to the customer and UCC when the 60% completion point is reached.

3.2

All payments due hereunder shall be paid by credit card, check or bank wire payable in U.S. dollars to BCS, or to the account of BCS at such bank as BCS may from time to time designate by notice to customer.  Except as authorized by BCS, UCC shall have no authority to make collections from customers, but shall assist BCS in collections upon request.

3.3

BCS agrees to pay UCC a commission on all Products sold.  The commission will be equal to the sales price of the Product as shown on the purchase order submitted to BCS, less shipping, custom duties or similar charges, less $47,000.  The commission will be paid to UCC within ten (10) days of BCS receiving the final payment as provided in Section 3.1 of this Agreement.

4.

TRADEMARKS/TRADENAMES

4.1

UCC will have the right to use BCS’ names, trademarks and tradenames for purposes of marketing the Product.  All advertising and other promotional material will  be submitted to BCS at least two (2) weeks in advance and will only be used if BCS consents thereto, which consent shall  not be unreasonably withheld.   BCS reserves the right to, at its sole discretion, periodically review   and monitor UCC’s use of its 

2

 

marks for proper trademark usage as may be required to preserve BCS’ rights, good will, and value in its trademarks and tradenames.  UCC will, on termination of this Agreement, discontinue the use of BCS’s name, trademarks or tradenames on any stationery, invoices, promotion material or otherwise and thereafter will not use the same, either directly or indirectly in connection with its business, or expressions so nearly resembling the same as would likely lead to confusion or uncertainty, or to deceive the public.

5.

NON-COMPETE

5.1

Unless authorized by BCS in writing, neither UCC nor any other entity in which UCC or any of its principals has any ownership or other financial interest, at any time during the term of this Agreement, or within one hundred eighty (180) days after the termination of this Agreement, shall either sell, or act as a sales representative for any products or product lines which are in any way similar in design, function or intended use as to the Product, or which otherwise are competitive with the Product.  UCC will use its best efforts to notify BCS of any potential or current competitive product or product line.

5.2

Unless authorized by UCC in writing, neither BCS nor any other entity in which BCS or any of its principals has any ownership or other financial interest, at any time during the term of this Agreement, or within one hundred eighty (180) days after the termination of this Agreement, shall either sell, or act as a sales representative for any products or product lines which are in any way similar in design, function or intended use as to the Product, or which otherwise are competitive with the Product.  

6.

WARRANTY

6.1

All Products and components thereof are subject to their respective manufacturer’s warranties.  The warranties, WHICH RUN TO THE CUSTOMER, will be represented to the customer in documents provided by the respective manufacturers. Products, parts or components that are replaced or repaired shall be subject to the same limitations and exclusions as the warranty for a new Product.

6.2

UCC may not extend the warranty or modify it in any respect. No modification or extension of any warranty is effective unless it is in a writing signed by an authorized officer of BCS. UCC shall notify BCS of any claimed defect in any product within thirty (30) days of the date UCC becomes aware of the defect, by giving a written report setting forth all pertinent details including a description of the defect and the time and place of occurrence. 

6.3

UCC shall make certain that all customers are aware of the terms of the Product and component warranties prior to the sale of the Product and will deliver a copy of manufacturer’s warranty documents with the sale of each Product. UCC shall prepare or cause a customer to prepare and forward to BCS any warranty registration materials or the like which BCS may require.

7.

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

7.1

 “Proprietary Information” as used herein shall mean all or any portion   of only the: (a) written, recorded, graphical or other information in tangible form disclosed during the term of this Agreement, by one party to the other party which is labeled “Proprietary”, “Confidential”, or with a similar legend denoting the proprietary interest therein of the disclosing party; (b) oral information which is disclosed by one party to the other party to the extent it is identified as “Proprietary” or “Confidential” at the time of oral disclosure, is reduced to written or other tangible form within thirty (30) days of oral disclosure, and such written or tangible form is labeled “Proprietary”, “Confidential”, or  with a similar legend denoting the proprietary interest therein of the disclosing party; and (c) models and other devices delivered or disclosed, during the Term of this Agreement, by one party to the other party which have been identified in writing at the time of disclosure as being proprietary to the disclosing party; and provided further, however, Proprietary Information shall not include any data, information or device that is: (i) in the possession of the receiving party prior to its disclosure by the disclosing party and not subject to other restriction on disclosure; (ii) independently developed by the receiving party; (iii) publicly disclosed by the disclosing party; (iv) rightfully received by the receiving party from a third party without restrictions on disclosure; (v) approved for unrestricted release or unrestricted disclosure by the disclosing party; or (vi) produced or disclosed pursuant to applicable laws, regulations or court order, provided the receiving party has given the disclosing party prompt notice of such request so that the disclosing party has an opportunity to defend, limit or protect such production or disclosure.

7.2

The Parties agree, (a) not to disclose Proprietary Information of the other Party (b) to limit dissemination of the other Party’s Proprietary Information to only those of the receiving Party’s officers, directors and employees who require access thereto to perform their functions regarding the purposes of his Agreement; and (c) not to use Proprietary Information of the other Party except for the purposes of this Agreement, which purposes shall include disclosure to subcontractors and second sources, both in accordance with nondisclosure agreements. The standard of care to be exercised by the receiving Party to meet these obligations shall be the standard exercised by the receiving Party with respect to its own proprietary information of a similar nature, but in no event less than due care.

7.3 

Each Party retains all rights and title to all Proprietary Information, in any form, disclosed to the other Party pursuant to this Agreement.

4

 

The Parties agree to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential and proprietary among the Parties and/or their affiliates.

If such default is not corrected within the said thirty (30) day period, the non-defaulting Party shall have the right, at its option, to cancel and terminate this Agreement.  The failure of the non-defaulting Party to exercise such right of termination or otherwise shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any right the non-defaulting Party might have, nor shall such failure preclude the non-defaulting Party from exercising or enforcing said right upon any subsequent failure by the defaulting Party.
