aents/Brokers to contact them regarding showings.

Length Of Listing - Seller may list for as little as one month or until sold.

Advertising - Printed advertising and or marketing will be arranged by seller and is to be at seller’s expense. As a
courtesy to buyers,

may also disclose to buyers they can buy direct from the seller if they are not working with an agent.

Listing Price - Seller is responsible for choosing the initial listing price.

Referring Buyers to listing Agent/Broker - Paragraph 10 in the listing contract requires seller to refer all inquires to this
listing Broker/Agent. This paragraph is waived under this contract If seller produces there own buyer. Seller has the right
to enter into a contract with a buyer that is not working with a licensed Agent/Broker and will not be responsible for any
fees, commissions.

Moneys and Fees Paid In Advance - Any and all moneys paid in advance are to be made payable to Grand Rapids
Realty and are non-refundable. Checks written buy seller and accepted by Broker/Agent with insufficient funds to cover
said check will result in a $100.00 penalty to be paid by seller to broker by means of a money order or certified funds. If
seller fails to provide said funds, the broker reserves the right to withdraw the property from the MLS and the terms and
dates of the listing contract will be in full force subsequently preventing the seller from selling property unless the entire
brokerage fee as well and any penalties are paid in full.

Selling Broker/Agent Compensation - Seller must agree to pay a reasonable compensation/finder’s fee to a selling
Broker if another Realtor/Broker provides a qualified buyer, an acceptable offer and can bring the transaction to a
close. In the Grand Rapids area, 3% of the sale price and above is customary. However, the amount paid to selling
Agent/Broker is seller’s choice. The amount of compensation must be established at time of listing and is to be paid only
if the property sells and closes.

At Close Fees - Seller understands that there will be no fees paid to Listing Broker at closing except as described in this
paragraph. Any and all fees for service under this program have been paid in advance. Seller understands that with
every Real Estate Transaction Seller is expected to pay customary fees such as Title Insurance, Closing Fees,
Recording Fees, etc. If Buyer is not represented by a Broker or Agent, then Seller shall pay no brokerage fees or
commission to any Agent or Broker, including Listing Broker. If Buyer is represented by a Broker or Agent (including any
Agent or Broker from Grand Rapids Realty other than the Listing Agent), Seller agrees to pay a Brokerage
Fee/Commission of 3% of the selling price to Buyer's Broker or Agent at closing and no commissions or fees shall be
paid to Listing Broker. If Buyer is represented by the Listing Agent (Doug Baird) then Seller agrees to pay a Brokerage
Fee/Commission of $1,000 to the Listing Agent at closing.

Seller May Sell The Property By Owner - Seller has the right to sell the property on their own to their own buyer and
avoid paying any additional Brokerage Fees to a Selling Broker. Seller has been advised to avoid trying to “by pass” a
Selling/Broker if said buyer is currently working with an Agent/Broker under a buyer agency contract. Doing so may
result in paying a commission later if the
selling Agent/Broker pursues a commission in a Court Of Law.

Short Sales - These terms will not apply to any sales requiring a short sale. If sale results into a short sale the
commission is to be 6%. (Any money paid in advance will not be credited to seller.)
