PHENOM'S QUARTERLY BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP TERMS

PHENOM Quarterly Business Partnership Terms

By purchasing a PHENOM Quarterly Business Partnership package, the purchasing business or individual (“Partner”) acknowledges and agrees to the following:

1. Quarterly Term

Each package covers one consecutive three-month partnership period beginning on the activation date confirmed by PHENOM APPAREL CO., LLC (“PHENOM”). Benefits must be used during that quarter and do not automatically carry forward.

The partnership does not automatically renew unless recurring billing is expressly authorized during checkout.

2. Participating Athletes

Not every athlete listed on the PHENOM roster participates in the Quarterly Business Partnership Program.

PHENOM retains sole discretion to select the athletes who participate in each campaign, sponsored apparel placement, promotional feature, social-media post, reel, or event. Selection may be based on athlete availability, scheduling, sport, event participation, apparel requirements, content availability, brand alignment, and applicable rules.

Purchasing a quarterly package does not guarantee access to, placement with, or promotional content from any particular athlete.

3. Supporting a Specific Athlete

Businesses wishing to support a particular PHENOM athlete must purchase an eligible package through PHENOM’s Individual Athlete Sponsorship Program.

Quarterly Business Partnership payments cannot be designated for a specific athlete unless PHENOM agrees in writing.

4. No Direct Athlete Relationship

The purchase of a package does not create an employment, management, agency, endorsement, or contractual relationship between the Partner and any PHENOM athlete.

Partners may not direct, manage, require content from, or independently negotiate promotional services with participating athletes through this program. All partnership requests and deliverables must be coordinated through PHENOM.

For youth athletes, Partners may not contact the athlete directly regarding sponsorship obligations. Any approved communication must involve PHENOM and the athlete’s parent or legal guardian.

5. Social-Media Deliverables

Social-media recognition may include posts, stories, reels, mentions, tags, collaborative content, sponsor graphics, or other formats selected by PHENOM.

Unless a specific format is expressly included in the purchased tier, PHENOM retains discretion over the platform, format, publication date, participating athletes, creative direction, and duration of the content.

Stories and other temporary content may expire according to the platform’s normal functionality.

6. Sponsor Reels

Dedicated sponsor reels are included only with the Elite $1,500 and Exclusive $2,500 quarterly packages.

Reels may feature one or more participating athletes selected by PHENOM. A reel does not guarantee participation by every athlete, publication on every platform, paid advertising, a minimum number of views, or permanent placement on a social-media profile.

PHENOM retains reasonable creative control to ensure consistency with its brand and athlete policies.

7. Logo and Apparel Placement

Logo placement is subject to:

  • Available space
  • Purchased partnership tier
  • Garment type and production schedule
  • Athlete participation
  • Event, venue, commission, sanctioning-body, school, team, gym, or promotion rules
  • PHENOM’s design and brand standards

Placement on competition uniforms, walkout apparel, banners, or event materials cannot be guaranteed. PHENOM may substitute another reasonably comparable promotional placement when a planned placement is prohibited or becomes unavailable.

Apparel placement applies only to select PHENOM-produced campaign pieces. It does not include apparel for every PHENOM athlete unless expressly stated in writing.

8. Partner Logo and Materials

The Partner grants PHENOM a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license during the partnership term to reproduce and display the Partner’s approved name, logo, trademarks, website, and submitted promotional materials solely for fulfilling the purchased package and promoting the partnership.

The Partner confirms that it owns or has permission to use all submitted materials. The Partner is responsible for claims arising from materials it provides without proper authorization.

Logos must be submitted by PHENOM’s stated deadline and in an acceptable high-resolution or vector format. Delayed or unusable artwork may delay or prevent placement without extending the partnership term.

9. Brand Approval

PHENOM may reject, remove, discontinue, or request changes to any logo, offer, message, product, service, or promotional material that:

  • Conflicts with PHENOM’s values or public image
  • Contains unlawful, misleading, offensive, discriminatory, or inappropriate content
  • Creates safety or reputational concerns
  • Infringes intellectual-property rights
  • Promotes a competing apparel or fightwear business
  • Violates athlete, event, platform, or promotion requirements

Partners do not receive editorial control over PHENOM’s brand, athletes, captions, designs, or content unless PHENOM agrees otherwise in writing.

10. Advertising Disclosures

PHENOM and participating athletes may identify the relationship using disclosures such as “Sponsored,” “Paid Partnership,” “PHENOM Business Partner,” or similar language when required or appropriate.

Partner-provided claims must be truthful, accurate, lawful, and supported by appropriate evidence. PHENOM and its athletes are not required to make statements about a product or service that they have not personally experienced or cannot honestly support. This aligns with the FTC’s requirement that advertising claims be truthful and endorsements not be misleading. FTC Advertising Guidance

11. No Guaranteed Results

PHENOM does not guarantee:

  • A minimum number of participating athletes
  • A particular athlete or event
  • Competition or event attendance
  • A specific logo location
  • Social-media views, reach, engagement, or follower growth
  • Website visits
  • Leads, customers, revenue, or sales
  • Media coverage
  • Any particular business or advertising outcome

Athlete schedules, injuries, withdrawals, event cancellations, rule changes, platform issues, and circumstances outside PHENOM’s reasonable control may affect deliverables.

12. No Refunds

All Quarterly Business Partnership purchases are final and non-refundable once payment is processed.

No refund will be issued because of athlete injury, illness, withdrawal, roster changes, event cancellation, scheduling changes, promotional restrictions, social-media performance, dissatisfaction with results, or a Partner’s decision not to continue.

If PHENOM cannot provide a material included benefit, PHENOM may, at its sole discretion, provide a reasonably comparable substitute benefit or account credit. This does not create a general right to a refund.

13. Limited Availability

Elite partnerships are limited to four businesses per quarter.

Exclusive partnerships are limited to two businesses per quarter.

Availability is not secured until payment is completed and accepted by PHENOM. PHENOM may decline or refund a purchase if the business conflicts with an existing partnership, PHENOM policy, athlete restrictions, or brand standards.

14. Category Exclusivity

Category exclusivity applies only to the Exclusive tier and only when confirmed by PHENOM in writing.

If approved, PHENOM will not accept another Exclusive-level quarterly partner in the same specifically defined primary business category during the active term. Category exclusivity does not prohibit:

  • Lower-tier partners
  • Existing PHENOM relationships
  • Individual athlete sponsors
  • Businesses in adjacent or broadly related industries
  • Athlete relationships that exist independently of PHENOM

15. Nature of the Relationship

The package is a purchase of limited promotional and sponsorship benefits. It is not an investment, charitable donation, ownership interest, joint venture, partnership in the legal sense, employment relationship, or guarantee of financial return.

16. Acceptance

Purchase of a PHENOM Quarterly Business Partnership package constitutes acknowledgment and acceptance of these terms. Any changes, additional promises, or guaranteed deliverables must be approved by PHENOM in writing.

Partner Eligibility and Prohibited Businesses

PHENOM reserves the right to review, approve, reject, suspend, or discontinue any partnership to protect its athletes, youth participants, customers, reputation, and brand values.

PHENOM will not partner with:

  • Competing fightwear, athletic-apparel, combat-sports apparel, or merchandise brands
  • Businesses primarily associated with alcohol, THC, marijuana, tobacco, vaping, nicotine, or recreational drugs
  • Businesses promoting illegal products, services, conduct, or activities
  • Businesses involving sexually explicit or adult-oriented products or services
  • Businesses promoting hate, discrimination, harassment, violence, or exploitation
  • Businesses making misleading, deceptive, or unsubstantiated claims
  • Businesses or individuals whose conduct, content, products, reputation, or public messaging conflicts with PHENOM’s values
  • Any business PHENOM determines may create legal, safety, reputational, athlete-welfare, or brand-conflict concerns

PHENOM retains sole discretion to determine whether a prospective or existing Partner is eligible for the program. Acceptance of payment does not guarantee final approval. If PHENOM rejects a Partner before any benefits or services are provided, the payment will be refunded.

If a Partner becomes ineligible, violates these terms, misrepresents its business, or engages in conduct that may harm PHENOM or its athletes after the partnership begins, PHENOM may immediately suspend or terminate the partnership. In those circumstances, unused benefits will be forfeited, and no refund will be issued.

Partners may not use the PHENOM name, logo, athletes, photographs, videos, or partnership status in a manner that suggests PHENOM or its athletes endorse a product, claim, political position, or activity beyond the specific benefits approved in writing.
