Platform Rulebook — Document 08 · Version 1.0 — effective on publication.
1.1 Every Transaction that an Intermediary introduces carries an IMFPA in the framework of Document 11, drafted from the agreed Stage 1 terms, reviewed by each side's appointed counsel, signed and notarised at Stage 2, and paid strictly per its terms.
1.2 An Intermediary's fee position is visible to that Intermediary alone, in its own workspace, per Deal Room.
2.1 Fees are disbursed by the Paymaster as a line of the Stage 5 settlement waterfall and tracked to REFLECTED, never by side payment. Roll-over tranches run under the same IMFPA, so protection continues per tranche without re-negotiation. The closing statement carries the disbursement proof into the sealed file.
3.1 No Participant shall make or solicit any arrangement, on or off the Platform, direct or indirect, whose purpose or effect is to defeat a protected fee, including contracting with an introduced counterparty outside the Platform within the scope of the Undertaking (Document 12).
3.2 The Deal Room audit log, the Stage 1 worksheet, and the sealed file are the Company's enforcement record of an introduction, and are admissible between the parties as the record of who introduced whom.
4.1 Circumvention is a material breach of Document 02: participation ends, open rooms freeze, the protected fee remains payable under the IMFPA, and the breaching Participant bears the Company's enforcement costs on an indemnity basis where the IMFPA so provides.
