How to Earn Elite Points

Elite Points: Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations herein, and verification by
Team Beachbody, you can earn elite points (“Elite Points”) by earning Advancement Team

for every Ten Thousand (10,000) Advancement Team Volume points you earn during the

PV produced by your first three (3) direct lines of sponsorship (“ATV”).

Maximum Elite Points Allowed: You may not earn more than forty (40) Elite Points under
this section towards Elite Qualifications.

Example: If you received Twenty Thousand (20,000) ATV points during calendar year
2013, and you receive Fifty Thousand (50,000) ATV points during the Challenge Period,
then you will receive Three (3) Elite Points under this section (50,000-20,000/10,000 = 3
Elite Points).

Sponsored Coaches will be aggregated for purposes of determining Elite Qualifications.
For your Personally Sponsored Coaches who have multiple Beachbody Coach Business
Centers, PV produced from multiple Beachbody Coach Business Centers will count
towards your Elite Qualifications, provided, however, that only PV produced from Coach
Business Centers that are enrolled during the Challenge Period will be counted.

who qualified for Success Club 5 or Success Club 10 Qualifications in January
2014, and (y) you also qualified for Success Club 5 or Success Club 10
Qualification in January 2014, then (z) you will earn twenty (20) total Elite Points
for January 2014 (10 x 2 = 20 Elite Points).
Maximum Elite Points Allowed: You may not earn more than fifty (50) Elite Points under
this section towards Elite Qualifications (including Elite Points earned through the
Potential Bonus Opportunity above).
Additional Limitations/Exclusions: Elite Points that you earn from PV points and Coach signups produced from the Customer Lead Program, the Shakeology Lead Program, or Coach
