TERMS TO TEACHERS : $3.00 for registration in one Agency, and $1.00 for each additional Agency. Registration fees
must accompany the return of application forms. Five per cent of one year’s salary is due upon engagement from each candidate
who secures a position through the Agency, and should be paid within thirty days after engagement.

Information of vacancies must be considered confidential, and be used only for the benefit of the candidate to whom it is sent.
Any transgression of this rule will render the candidate liable for the commission.

The commission is charged irrespective of length of engagement, except when a teacher is employed as substitute. in which
case seven per cent will be charged for the actual time of substituting: i.e., the amount of commission is the same whether the candidate
is employed at the beginning of the school year, or at any time during the year, and whether the teacher is hired by the week, by the
month, or by the year, unless the position is that of a substitute. If the position leads to a permanency, the amount on which commission
has been paid as substitute will be deducted from one year‘s salary, and five per cent will be charged on the remainder.

When board is given as part of salary, it is estimated at from $200 to $5oo,‘_according to value.

If a candidate who has secured a position through us obtains an advance in salary before the close of the first year of service, he is
under obligation for the commission on the advance the same as on the original salary.

If a teacher is elected to a position, having given assurance that he will accept it, any change of plan will not affect his obligation to
us. In justice to employers and to ourselves, we wish to prevent candidates making contracts which they are not prepared to keep.

Ifa candidate applies through theAgency for a position, or is recommended for a position by the Agency, and is elected by the
same officials to that or another position,then or later, directly or indirectly, as a result of these negotiations, commission is due the Agency.

If a candidate obtains an increase of salary in his present position as an obvious result of an application for another position at our
suggestion. or of information received from the Agency, commission will be charged on the position to which we have called attention the
same as if it were accepted.

Registration secures membership for two years, unless the candidate secures a position before the end of that time. If, as sometimes
happens, a candidate is represented by us after the period of his registration has expired, he is expected to meet the terms of the Agency
the same as if the service had been rendered before the end of this period.

lfa candidate Secures a position through one of our Agencies after the expiration of his period of membership, he agrees to pay to
the Agency the usual registration fee in addition to the usual commission.

A candidate, having secured a position. is held responsible to us for commission, if either he or the employer has recognized us as
an intermediary in bringing about an engagement; that is, if the candidate has acted upon our information of the vacancy, or has been
recommended by the Agency to the employer in response to a call. If previous information concerning a vacancy would seem to invali-
date our claim for commission, any objection to such claim must be made immediately upon receipt of notice of the vacancy from us.

Your signature and filling out the blank on the other side of this sheet is a promise to 00mply with the above terms.
