EVENT INFORMATION

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN YOUR AMWAY NEW PLATINUM CONFERENCE PROGRAM: Amway is pleased to be your host during your visit to Ada, Michigan. As our IBO guest, the cost of up to two airline tickets, one room for three nights, baggage handling, and Amway-sponsored events is included in your program. Transportation to and from Gerald R. Ford International Airport (GRR) in Grand Rapids, Michigan, is also provided (on trip arrival and departure dates only).

IRS FORM 1099: The U.S. Internal Revenue Service requires Amway to report payments to IBO guests for all nonbusiness-related items such as activities and amenities. This will be indicated in the Form 1099-MISC you receive annually from Amway.

As business owners, you understand that reporting the correct amount of income to the IRS is important. Every year, we make your Annual Income Summary available online. Examples of items that are included in the Annual Income Summary (at fair market value) include: • Bonus earnings • Gift cards/giveaways/raffles • Cash in lieu of trips/prizes • Trip amenities • Event tickets • Nonbusiness trips.

Most IBO businesses earning over $600 receive a Form 1099-MISC (similar to a W-2 form) from Amway Corp. in January of every year that reports your annual income to the IRS. Currently, 1099s are not sent to IBO businesses that are incorporated. We do, however, furnish earnings information to corporations on the Annual Income Summary.

AMWAY POLICY ON CHILDREN/GUESTS: We know that many of you involve your families in your business. We applaud you! Events are only for IBOs who have officially qualified to attend the event. Children cannot attend, even if accompanied by their parents. Therefore, children cannot be brought into the event functions unless buy-in opportunities exist and tickets are purchased. We appreciate your cooperation in compliance with this policy.

SCHEDULES, ETC.: Once you complete your registration for the Amway New Platinum Conference, you will receive additional information prior to arriving in Grand Rapids. Most Amway New Platinum Conference attendees will receive their airline reservations via an e-ticket.

WHAT TO WEAR: Attire for most of the activities such as the Business Meetings, Educational Sessions, and sales profitability breakouts is business casual; for the group activities, more casual apparel is acceptable. We recommend business or semiformal attire for the Recognition Celebration on the final evening.

When you arrive, be sure to fill out and sign the mileage reimbursement form at the Hospitality Desk. Please submit your form before the conclusion of the conference.

Both IBOs must attend the same conference.
