Partner Terms

HOMES ON DEMAND DESIGN PARTNER TERMS

Effective Date: 21st August, 2026

These Design Partner Terms (“Terms”) govern participation in the Homes on Demand Design Partner Programme (“Programme”) operated by Homes on Demand Limited (“Homes on Demand”, “HoD”, “we”, “us” or “our”).

By registering as a Design Partner, submitting a design, or selecting the acceptance checkbox stating that you agree to these Terms, you confirm that you have read, understood and accepted these Terms.

1. DESIGN PARTNER STATUS

A Design Partner is an architect, architectural practice, design studio or other qualified design professional accepted by Homes on Demand to submit eligible residential designs for consideration, publication and potential activation through the Homes on Demand system.

Registration does not automatically guarantee publication.

Homes on Demand may review, request amendments to, approve, reject, suspend or remove a design in accordance with these Terms and its quality requirements.

2. DESIGN OWNERSHIP

The Design Partner retains ownership of the intellectual property rights in designs submitted to Homes on Demand, except to the extent that the Partner has represented that such rights belong to another person or entity.

The Partner must not submit a design for which the Partner does not have sufficient authority to permit the uses contemplated by these Terms.

Nothing in these Terms transfers copyright ownership in the underlying design to Homes on Demand.

3. LIMITED LICENCE TO HOMES ON DEMAND

By submitting an accepted design, the Partner grants Homes on Demand a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing licence, limited to the operation of the Programme, to:

reproduce the design for catalogue and operational purposes; display the design publicly; create catalogue descriptions; create or commission visual presentations; resize, crop or technically format images; present specifications; market the design; include the design in Homes on Demand communications; configure the design for an eligible home activation; coordinate the design with site and delivery requirements; and facilitate the delivery of an activated home based on the design.

The licence does not constitute a transfer of copyright ownership.

4. NON-EXCLUSIVITY

Unless a separate written agreement expressly provides otherwise, participation in the Programme is non-exclusive.

The Partner remains free to market and commercialise its designs through other legitimate channels.

5. DESIGN SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

A submitted design should, where applicable, include:

complete 2D floor plans; dimensions and available specifications; high-quality exterior visualisation; at least four useful exterior views; a principal/hero image; house type; model/design identification; floor count; parking information; bathrooms and other relevant specifications; available walkthrough animation; and other materials reasonably required for accurate product presentation.

Homes on Demand may request additional information where necessary.

6. TECHNICAL COMPLETENESS

A design does not have to contain every technical document required for final construction at the time of initial catalogue submission.

Homes on Demand may require architectural working drawings, structural information, MEP documentation, BOQ inputs, specifications, surveys or other professional documentation as necessary to evaluate and deliver an activated home.

Such requirements do not automatically constitute additional work for the Design Partner unless the work falls outside the Partner's agreed scope.

7. DESIGN AND SITE ALIGNMENT

Normal design-to-site alignment is included within the Partner's standard contribution.

This may include reasonable adaptation necessary to align the accepted design with:

site dimensions; orientation; access; setbacks; applicable planning considerations; and other ordinary site-specific conditions. 8. HEAVY CUSTOMISATION

A substantial modification that materially changes the approved design may constitute Heavy Customisation.

Examples include:

major floor-plan restructuring; substantial increase or reduction in building size; material changes to structural arrangement; extensive façade redesign; major additional design work; or substantial reworking of the original design.

The Partner must not impose or demand an additional fee directly from the customer during activation.

Where Heavy Customisation is required, Homes on Demand will:

identify the additional scope; obtain the applicable Partner quotation or agreed fee; disclose the charge to the customer; obtain customer approval; and authorise the additional work before it begins.

No undisclosed mid-activation design charge is permitted.

9. DESIGN ROYALTY

The applicable design royalty is determined according to the design category and complexity, not as a percentage of the customer's entire construction cost.

The current indicative royalty bands are:

Design category Indicative royalty Standard bungalow ₦100,000–₦150,000 Standard duplex ₦150,000–₦200,000 Premium / complex multi-level ₦200,000–₦300,000 Exceptional / luxury Individually agreed

Homes on Demand will determine the applicable royalty within the relevant category during design acceptance.

The applicable royalty must be communicated before the design is finally accepted into the Programme.

10. ROYALTY PAYMENT

The design royalty is funded from the customer's Home Activation Fee.

The royalty becomes earned when:

the customer's applicable activation payment has cleared; the relevant cancellation/refund stage has been passed; Homes on Demand has completed its design review; and normal design/site alignment has been completed.

The applicable royalty will ordinarily be paid once per activation within 14 working days after the royalty becomes payable, subject to verification and any lawful deduction permitted under these Terms.

A royalty is payable again for each separate activation of the same design.

11. ACTIVATION CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS

The Partner acknowledges that the Home Activation Fee is a staged process and feasibility fee rather than a construction deposit.

Where an activation is cancelled, any refund will be governed by the applicable Homes on Demand Activation and Refund Policy.

Where a refund is due, Homes on Demand may deduct documented amounts attributable to:

completed Homes on Demand services; completed design review; completed site/design alignment; earned design royalty; third-party services already ordered or performed; and other disclosed non-recoverable costs.

If a design royalty has already been paid before a subsequent qualifying cancellation requiring recovery of that amount, Homes on Demand may offset the recoverable amount against future sums payable to the Partner or otherwise recover it in accordance with applicable law and the relevant activation terms.

12. DESIGNER VISIBILITY

Homes on Demand may display the Partner's:

studio name; professional profile; logo; website; design attribution; and other approved professional information.

Homes on Demand may withhold personal telephone numbers, private email addresses and other direct contact information where necessary to protect customer privacy, platform integrity and the activation process.

13. CUSTOMER CONTACT AND NON-CIRCUMVENTION

Where a customer discovers a Partner or its design through Homes on Demand, the Partner shall not knowingly circumvent Homes on Demand by redirecting the customer away from the platform for the purpose of avoiding applicable Homes on Demand fees, activation processes or contractual obligations.

This restriction applies specifically to customers or opportunities demonstrably originated through Homes on Demand.

It does not prevent the Partner from dealing independently with persons or clients with whom the Partner had an established relationship before the relevant Homes on Demand introduction.

14. DESIGN MODIFICATIONS AND APPROVAL

Homes on Demand may make reasonable technical, editorial or presentation modifications required to prepare a design for catalogue publication.

Material modifications to the substantive architectural design should be approved by the Partner where reasonably practicable.

No modification shall be represented as the Partner's professional design work where the Partner did not participate in or approve the relevant professional work.

15. ACCURACY AND PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY

The Partner warrants that:

submitted designs are substantially accurate; the Partner has the authority to submit them; the Partner will not knowingly submit infringing material; material information supplied to Homes on Demand is accurate; and the Partner will promptly notify Homes on Demand of any material error or rights dispute concerning an accepted design. 16. PUBLICATION AND QUALITY CONTROL

Homes on Demand may reject or temporarily withhold publication of any design that:

fails the required quality standard; contains materially incomplete information; cannot reasonably be prepared for delivery; creates legal or intellectual-property concerns; contains materially misleading information; or does not align with Homes on Demand product standards.

The Partner may be given an opportunity to correct deficiencies.

17. PRICING AND CUSTOMER REPRESENTATION

The Partner shall not independently quote the customer a competing Homes on Demand delivery price or make representations that contradict approved Homes on Demand pricing, activation terms or delivery information.

Design royalty amounts are separate from the customer's construction or home-delivery price.

18. CONFIDENTIALITY

Each party shall treat confidential commercial, technical, financial and operational information received from the other party as confidential and shall not disclose it except where necessary for the operation of the Programme, required by law or authorised by the relevant party.

19. SUSPENSION OR REMOVAL

Homes on Demand may suspend or remove a Partner or design where it reasonably believes that:

these Terms have been breached; ownership rights are disputed; submitted information is materially misleading; professional or ethical concerns arise; the Partner attempts to circumvent the platform; or continued publication creates material operational or legal risk.

Where appropriate, Homes on Demand will notify the Partner and provide an opportunity to respond.

20. FOUNDING DESIGN PARTNER STATUS

A Partner accepted during the founding period may receive Founding Design Partner designation.

This designation recognises early participation in the Programme.

It does not guarantee a minimum number of activations, revenue, customers or royalties.

Homes on Demand may provide founding partners with priority consideration for appropriate future catalogue, product and ecosystem initiatives.

21. NO GUARANTEE OF ACTIVATION

Publication of a design does not guarantee:

customer interest; activation; construction; revenue; royalty income; or a minimum number of enquiries.

Homes on Demand will not represent otherwise.

22. TERMINATION BY PARTNER

A Partner may request withdrawal of a design from future publication by written notice.

Withdrawal does not affect:

an activation already completed; an activation already contractually committed; royalties already earned; licences necessary to complete an existing activation; or obligations accrued before withdrawal. 23. ELECTRONIC ACCEPTANCE

By selecting:

☐ I have read and agree to the Design Partner Terms

and completing registration or submission, the applicant confirms that the acceptance constitutes electronic agreement to these Terms.

The platform may record:

Partner identity; date and time of acceptance; version of Terms accepted; IP/device information where lawfully collected; and related onboarding records. 24. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

Homes on Demand may update these Terms where necessary.

Material changes affecting existing Partner rights or financial obligations will be communicated through the platform or another reasonable channel.

The version applicable to a particular activation shall be identifiable from the platform's records.

25. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, subject to any mandatory legal rights applicable to the parties.

Disputes shall first be addressed through good-faith commercial resolution before either party commences formal proceedings, except where urgent legal relief is reasonably required.

Builders are assigned to specific projects and receive access only to those projects, their milestones and the documents required for execution. Site evidence must be captured on site; location metadata is recorded with every upload.

Land offered through the platform must have title documentation available for review. No land is presented to customers before that review.

Referrals are attributed through a partner's issued referral code. Commission is confirmed only against a genuine qualifying activation, and each attribution carries a visible status: pending, confirmed, void or paid. Partners see only their own referrals.

This policy describes how the platform operates today. It is drafted for legal review and will be updated as the platform and its partner agreements mature.
