If the Commissions payable for any period do not exceed $100 USD, 101domain will hold payments until such time as Commissions payable exceed this amount (unless this Agreement is terminated, at which time, all payments due to Affiliate will be issued).

Affiliate shall be responsible for any and all tax liability arising out of receipt of Commissions under this Agreement and Affiliate agrees to indemnify and hold 101domain harmless from any and all claims, damages, and expenses (including without limitation, attorney's fees) arising from such tax liability.
