Terms of Agreement

4.1 Onboarding with Apartment Butler

  • Contractor agrees to supply Approved Runners and Cleaning Supplies to provide Cleaning
    Services to Apartments as needed by AB.
  • Contractor agrees that it will only permit Approved Runners to be on the premise of any
    AB Communities, and the it will not assign not outsource, or assign any non-approved
    Employees to provide Cleaning Services for AB. Contractor shall provide AB with a
    complete list of all Approved Runners upon the hiring or termination of any Approved
    Runner.
  • All employees supplied by Contractor may be required to fill out an onboarding
    application, provided by AB; the application must include a picture of employee in AB
    Apparel and basic biographical information. AB reserves the right to share this
    information with its customer.
  • At all times, AB reserves the right to approve or decline any Employee’s Approved Runner
    Status.
  • Contractor agrees to accept and decline housekeeping requests (i.e., service requests
    generated by AB customers) per terms laid out in Section 4.2.

4.2. Accepting / Declining Housekeeping Requests with Apartment Butler

(a) “Early-window” service requests: All housekeeping service requests generated by AB
customers before 6pm, 2 calendar days prior to the day of service (e.g., for services to
be performed on Wednesday, 6/14/17, AB customers generate service requests before
6pm, Monday 6/12/17) are hereafter called “early-window” service requests.

i. AB will publish all ‘early-window’ housekeeping service requests expected to be
serviced by the Contractor to the “Contractor Portals” (provided by AB) by 6pm, 2
calendar days prior to the day of service (e.g., for services to be performed on
Wednesday, 6/14/17 AB will publish these services to the Contractor Portals by
6pm, Monday 6/12/17). Contractor can review the Contractor Portals at any time
of their choosing to obtain a snapshot of all available requests, past and future.

ii. For such “early-window” service requests, Contractor can accept / decline these
requests up to 9am, 1 day prior to day of service without monetary penalties
(e.g., for services to be performed on Wednesday, 6/14/17 Contractor can accept
/ decline without monetary penalties up to 9am, Tuesday 6/13/17).

iii. If Contractor declines an ‘early-window’ request after 9am, 1 day prior to the day
of service, Contractor agrees to pay 50% of Service Price of the service to AB. The
rationale for this penalty: AB will likely have to incentivize another service provider
WEB apartmentbutler.com EMAIL info@apartmentbutler.com APP iOS + Android Page 9
to accept a late request, and / or issue a credit to the customer for a last-minute
cancelation. To confirm any declination of such services, Contractor MUST
CONTACT AB to ensure AB is aware of lack of coverage for services. If no contact
is made with AB, it will be assumed that Contractor has automatically accepted
the service; in such instances, non-completion of service is subject to fines in
Section 4.3.h.

iv. Contractor must assign each Service Request to an Approved Runner by 9am on
the date of service by inputting the information into the Contractor Dashboard.

(b) “Late-window” service requests: All housekeeping service requests generated by AB
customers after 6pm, 2 calendar days prior to the day of service (e.g., for services to be
performed on Wednesday, 6/14/17, AB customers generate service requests after 6pm,
Monday 6/12/17) are hereafter called “late-window” service requests.

i. AB will publish all ‘late-window’ housekeeping service requests expected to be
serviced by the Contractor to the “Contractor Portals” (provided by AB) as soon
as they are generated by customer. Contractor can review the Contractor Portals
at any time of their choosing to obtain a snapshot of all available requests, past
and future.

ii. For such “late-window” service requests, Contractor can accept / decline these
requests directly from the “Contractor Portal” up to 9am on day of service
without monetary penalties (e.g., for services to be performed on Wednesday,
6/14/17 Contractor can accept / decline without monetary penalties up to 9am,
Wednesday 6/14/17). Accepting / declining such requests can be done directly
from Contractor Portal – once the Contractor Portal provides visual confirmation
(e.g., pop-up window) that the acceptance / rejection is received by the system,
then no separate contact with AB is necessary. If the Contractor Portal does not
provide such visual confirmation, Contractor shall contact AB directly.

iii. If Contractor declines more than 3 ‘late-window’ requests in a 12-week period, AB
can choose to not publish such “late-window” requests to Contractor’s portal. The
rationale: AB would like to minimize the number of times AB customer receive
rejections for last-minute service requests; ultimately, AB believes there is a
market for last-minute housekeeping services and would like to develop
competency and reputation to serve these requests profitably.
iv. Contractor must assign each Service Request to an Approved Runner by 9am on
the date of service by inputting the information into the Contractor Dashboard.

started (i.e., Clock-in time) and the time and date that the service was completed (i.e.,
Clock-out time). In addition, Approved Runners must capture digital images of the kitchen

reimbursing AB for said expense, at the sole discretion of AB.
