                        Section 3 Duties of the Coach 
     
    (1)  The Coach shall provide his/her coaching services to the client in person in the framework of at least five personal sessions, 
      given that personal coaching of the client by the Coach is a key quality feature of the Metabolic Balance® program. This 
      constitutes a fundamental contractual duty for the Coach.  
    (2)  The Coach shall provide his/her coaching services exclusively in compliance with the treatment guidelines enclosed as Annex 
      1. This constitutes a fundamental contractual duty for the Coach. If necessary on medical or other grounds, WHS is entitled at 
      any time to modify or adapt the requirements indicated in Annex 1 to this Contract. The Coach undertakes to implement the 
      amended requirements immediately. 
    (3)  The Coach shall take appropriate measures to protect passwords and access codes as referred to in section 2(2) against 
      unauthorized access by third parties and shall not disclose these to third parties. The Coach shall keep in a secure place data 
      carriers with the copies of the passwords and access codes that he/she has prepared. The Coach shall point out to his/her 
      employees that the preparation of copies over and above the contractually agreed extent is not permitted.

      in the price list attached as Annex 2 for the Nutritional Plans called up.

      the Metabolic Balance® website or otherwise as directed by WHS in writing. 
    (6)  The Coach shall take part in training courses organized by WHS. Participation serves to ensure the quality of the services 
      provided by the Coach to clients and constitutes a fundamental contractual duty. 
    (7)  The right of use accorded under Section 2(1) does not entitle the Coach to use the trademark as a part of any internet domain 
      name (second-level domain). The Coach shall not register, or have registered or operate, any domains with the trademark as 
      part of the domain name. The Coach also undertakes not to register any domains which contain the words "metabolic". 
      Neither shall the Coach be entitled to use the designation "Metabolic Balance" and/or "metabolic" – whether in combination 
      with other words or alone – as a corporate design or as part of the Coach's corporate design.

      entitled to design such presentation in accordance with the uniform guidelines for coach websites in Annex 6. Coaches who 
      alternatively operate an individually designed website shall ensure that the content, structure, and visual appearance of any

                            Page 2 of 10

                   a) provide visitors to the website with easily recognizable, immediately accessible, and constantly available indications 
                   that their website/s is/are not a Metabolic Balance® website or WHS website,  
                   b) provide an easily recognizable, immediately accessible, and constantly available link to

                   c) observe the binding requirements for the use of the trademarks as set out in Annex 5 to this contract. 
          (9)  If the Coach uses the Metabolic Balance® trademark for search machine optimization as a keyword for his/her own website, 
              it must be clearly evident from the text presented for the result display in the search engine that the website in question is that 
              of the Coach and not of Metabolic Balance® or WHS itself. 
          (10) The right of use accorded under Section 2(1) does not entitle the Coach to use the trademark as a part of an email address. 
              The Coach shall refrain from doing so. 
          (11)     Within this agreement, the Coach is only given specific and listed rights. The Coach is not permitted to issue any 
          statement or engage in any publicity with any form of the media. The Coach is required to obtain WHS’s prior written permission 
          before carrying out the aforementioned activities. The Coach also agrees to direct any request from the media through to WHS.

          consent of WHS.

          quality control, WHS shall in particular be entitled to request any publicly available marketing materials, such as websites and 
          flyers be amended, attend client consultations or, with the client's permission, to ask clients, either during or after the program, 
          about their opinion of the quality provided by the Coach or the applied method. The Coach shall provide its services in accordance 
          with the internal quality management program for the quality label (Annex 1) and the annual review. The Coach shall provide its 
          services in accordance with both legal and ethical marketing standards. 
          (14)     The Coach agrees that WHS reserves the right to provide a mandatory laboratory for the necessary blood analysis to be 
          used exclusively for all clients in the future.

          answer, however, inquiries from clients who are resident outside the Contractual Territory, and may then also provide them with 
          the program.  
          (16)     The Coach shall be responsible for charging the client for his/her services and in particular for tax related matters.

          with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) as amended under the Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000 and the various 
          State Privacy Acts. 
          (18)     The Coach is explicitly authorized to provide remote coaching provided that the scope and quality of such remote 
          coaching corresponds to that of highly personal on-site coaching as referred to in Annex 1 of this Coach Agreement. 
          (19)     The Coach agrees to make no statements to any third party that could possibly be reasonably taken as a representation 
          that the Coach has authority to act or speak for or represent WHS. 
          (20)     The Coach agrees to indemnify and hold WHS harmless from any demands, claims, legal actions by third parties arising 
          out of or in any way related to the actions or omissions of the Coach arising out of or in any way related to the performance of this 
          agreement. 
          (21)     The Coach shall at all times, including during any dispute, by any communication method, direct or indirect (including

    (2)  WHS shall be entitled at any time to modify or cancel voluntary payments. In such cases WHS shall inform the Coach,
