B\u00f3kun shall promptly provide to Partner any proof of such remittances to the local tax authorities, including receipts issued from the appropriate tax regulatory authority or any other relevant documentation evidencing payment of any amounts deducted pursuant to this Section.

Where the Fees owing to Partner are greater than USD $50 (or equivalent) at the end of any Payment Period, the Fees will be paid to Partner.

3.2.3\tPartner is responsible for all applicable Taxes that arise from or as a result of any activities under this Agreement or with respect to Partner\u2019s dealings with any Vendor.

If Partner disputes the Invoiceable Sum specified in a Statement, Partner must notify B\u00f3kun immediately upon B\u00f3kun\u2019s provision of the applicable Statement, and within a maximum of fourteen (14) days, after which time Partner shall be deemed to have accepted the contents of the Statement in full.<\/p>\n

related to fraudulent sales; or
\nrelated to any payments that have been subject to chargebacks or other types of payment reversal. <\/p>\n
