MINIMUM ADVERTISED PRICE POLICY

In order to protect our dealer network and the prestige of TIS Wheels as a brand, TIS Wheels has unilaterally
adopted the following Minimum Advertised Price policy (“MAP Policy”). We recognize that advertising practices
that primarily promote our products based on price could damage our brand image and the valuable goodwill we
have developed in our trademarks. Our goal in establishing this MAP Policy is twofold. We want to ensure that all
TIS Wheels products are advertised and promoted in a way that maintains the integrity and reputation associated
with TIS Wheels’ products. We also want to deter discounters from freeriding on the efforts of our dealers in
marketing and promoting our brand.

This unilateral MAP Policy applies to all resellers of products sold under the TIS Wheels brand name (“Products”). TIS
Wheels is not seeking agreement from any reseller to comply with this MAP Policy. It is entirely within each reseller’s
discretion to comply or not comply; however, non-compliance may result in the termination of the business relationship
between TIS Wheels and the reseller.

1. Resellers may not advertise any Products below the manufacturer’s MAP. The MAP will be unilaterally established,
updated, and revised by TIS Wheels from time to time, at its sole discretion. If a Product is not listed on the most current
MAP price sheet or new product release sheets, it is not subject to this MAP Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, all resellers
remain free to set prices independently and to independently determine whether to abide by or disregard this MAP Policy.

2. The MAP Policy applies to all forms of advertisements in any and all media, including, without limitation, in-store,
flyers, posters, coupons, direct mailers, brochures, inserts, newspapers, magazines, catalogs, mail-order catalogs, public
signage, other print media, television, radio, email, Internet websites, e-commerce, any method that uses the hypertext
transfer protocol (http) or any internal link to a web-based shopping cart, and other electronic media that communicates to
the public.

3. TIS Wheels Products may only be advertised as standalone products and may not be advertised to include
promotional allowances. Resellers may not advertise coupons, cash rebates, buy one (or more)/get one, free premiums,
free or discounted products, reward programs, or bundled promotions (whether with TIS Wheels or another manufacturer)
with a Product if it has the effect of lowering the advertised price of the Product below the MSRP.

4. Free shipping and/or handling or free financing promotions do not violate the MAP Policy. Promotions that provide
a free gift with purchase are not a violation of this MAP Policy, provided the gift is not a TIS Wheels-branded Product.
Promotions commonly referred to as “Friends and Family Sales Promotions” are not a violation of this MAP Policy, provided
that these promotions (a) occur no more frequently than twice per calendar year and for periods no longer than one week at
a time, (b) are offered only to a limited group of prior loyal customers and family members of the retailer, (c) are not
advertised through digital means, and (d) require original non-transferable invitations.

5. The MAP Policy does not apply once an item is placed in a customer’s “virtual shopping cart” on an Internet
website. However, “Click for price,” “Call for price,” “Click here for a lower price,” “See price in the cart,” “Log-in for price,”
“Add to cart for a lower price,” “Check the cart for a lower price,” “Mouse over for a price,” “Email for (a better) price,” or the
like on a website that displays an advertised price lower than MSRP is a violation of this policy. TIS Wheels’ MAP Policy
does not in any way limit the ability of any reseller to advertise that “they have the lowest prices” or use other phrases of
similar meaning. Prices may be omitted from advertisements.

6. From time to time, TIS Wheels may engage in promotions with respect to certain Products. In such events, TIS
Wheels reserves the right to modify or suspend the MAP Policy with respect to the affected Products. TIS Wheels further
reserves the right to unilaterally suspend, amend, or adjust the MAP Policy at any time with respect to all or certain
Products at its sole discretion. TIS Wheels’ primary, non-exclusive method of communication will be via its price sheets for
resellers.

7. TIS Wheels may monitor advertised pricing of Products. If a reseller advertises Products in a manner inconsistent
with this MAP Policy, to prevent any damage to brand integrity, TIS Wheels may unilaterally and without further warning
discontinue its business relationship with such a retailer. While TIS Wheels reserves the right to immediately terminate any
reseller for any violation of the MAP Policy, TIS Wheels understands that there may be instances where a violation is
inadvertent. As such, TIS Wheels will typically provide notice of a reseller’s first violation of this Policy, though it is not
required to do so. Within 48 hours of receiving any such notice, TIS Wheels expects that the violation will be cured, and that
there will be no further violations of the MAP Policy. By providing such notification, TIS Wheels does not seek or invite, and
shall not accept, any reseller’s agreement to raise its resale prices, cure the violation, or otherwise continue to abide by this
policy. If a violation is not cured within 24 hours, at its sole discretion, TIS Wheels may elect to place the reseller on a
no-sell list for 30 days until the violations have been cured.

8. This MAP Policy does not confer any direct or indirect rights on any reseller, as a third-party beneficiary or
otherwise. Resellers shall not discuss the resale prices of any other reseller with any TIS Wheels employee or representative, and TIS Wheels will not respond to complaints regarding the actions of a third party regarding this MAP Policy.

9. This MAP Policy is not a contract or agreement, and TIS Wheels does not seek nor will it solicit or accept any
reseller’s agreement with our policy, nor will TIS Wheels discuss the pricing of any reseller.

10. All matters of interpretation and application of the terms of this MAP Policy shall remain within the sole discretion
of TIS Wheels. TIS Wheels reserves the right to update, revise, modify, or discontinue this policy and pricing structure at
any time without notice.

11. ALL DEALERS ARE PROHIBITED FROM SELLING TIS WHEELS TO AMAZON FBA AND AMAZON DIRECT SALES.
DOING SO RESULTS IN LOSS OF ACCESS TO PURCHASE TIS WHEELS.

 

TIS Wheels is implementing a three-strike model to address Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) violations. Our
dedicated TIS staff is committed to ensuring that all our resellers adhere to MAP guidelines. We will proactively
reach out to retailers through both email and telephone communication to promptly address any instances of MAP
violations.

In the event of a MAP violation, the following steps will be taken:

First Violation: If the initial violation is not rectified within a 48-hour period from the time of notification, a first strike will be
issued.

Second Violation: Should the violation persist after the second notification and another 48-hour grace period, a second
strike will be applied. If not corrected, purchasing discounts will be lost.

Third Violation: Upon the third notification and third strike, the reseller will be at risk of losing access to purchase TIS
wheels unless the violation is promptly remedied.

Our goal is to maintain fair pricing practices and protect the integrity of the TIS brand, and we appreciate your
cooperation in upholding these standards.
