THIS INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT (this “ICA”) is made and entered into by and between the undersigned real estate licensee (“Agent”), and the applicable eXp entity1 licensed as a real estate brokerage company in Agent’s state(s) of licensure (“eXp”). This ICA shall become effective (the “Effective Date”), as follows: (1) when electronically signed by the last of the Parties to electronically sign this ICA (if this ICA is to be Agent’s original Independent Contractor Agreement with eXp), or (2) as provided in Section 15, below (if this ICA is to be a revision to a former version of Agent’s Independent Contractor Agreement with eXp). eXp and Agent may be referred to hereinafter individually as a “Party,” and collectively as the “Parties.”
BACKGROUND

AGREEMENT
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration for the above recitals, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1 eXp Realty, LLC (in all states except those that follow); eXp Realty of California, Inc. (in California); eXp Realty of Northern California, Inc. (in northern California); eXp Realty of Greater Los Angeles, Inc. (in central California); eXp Realty of Southern California, Inc. (in southern California); eXp Realty North, LLC (in N.

a.Compensation Split. Agent shall be entitled to compensation on purchase transactions, sales transactions, rental/lease transactions, broker price opinions (“BPOs”), and referrals (each, a “Transaction,” collectively, “Transactions”) as follows: income retained by eXp after referrals, but prior to compensation split (“Gross Compensation Income”), shall be split at the rate of 80% to Agent (“Contractor Dollar”) and 20% to eXp (“Company Dollar”) on all Transactions closed by the Agent. Should any Transaction be subject to any state or local taxes, the 80%/20% compensation split will be calculated after the tax is deducted.
b.Stock and Equity. eXp provides opportunities to eligible eXp real estate licensees to obtain shares of AGNT, Inc. (f/k/a eXp World Holdings, Inc.) common stock (Nasdaq: AGNT) through (i) the Agent Equity Program, in which eXp real estate licensees must opt-in in order to participate and agree to the terms and conditions of that program, and (ii) the Agent Growth Incentive Program, which is available to all eXp real estate licensees and no opt-in step is required, both of which are administered under the respective Equity Incentive Plan set forth in Agent’s Election Form or Grant Agreement, as applicable. Shares acquired through either of the foregoing programs will be issued to Agent in Agent’s individual capacity;

Ex. 10.13
shares cannot be issued to non-natural persons (e.g., a legal entity). If interested, Agent should visit the eXp Agent Shareholder Hub for details and participation information.
c.Revenue Share Plan. Agent shall be automatically enrolled in eXp’s Revenue Share Plan, which shall be governed by those terms set forth in the eXp P&Ps.
d.Compensation Period Definitions. Agent’s onboard date (“Onboard Date”) shall be the later of, (a) Agent’s “Join Date” (the date eXp verifies Agent’s email address and Agent becomes active in MY | eXp®), or (b) the date on which Agent’s real estate license is transferred to eXp. Agent’s anniversary date (“Anniversary Date”) shall be the first day of the calendar month following Agent’s Onboard Date with eXp. So, for example, if Agent’s Onboard Date is January 18, 2025, then Agent’s Anniversary Date will be February 1, 2025. Agent’s “Capping Period” is a consecutive twelve (12) calendar month period during which time the amount of Company Dollar collected on Agent’s Transactions is accrued towards the Company Dollar Cap. The term “Company Dollar Cap” means that once the amount of Company Dollar received from Agent’s closed Transactions reaches $16,000 (the $16,000 amount being commonly referred to as a “Full Cap”) within Agent’s Capping Period, eXp will no longer collect the Company Dollar portion of the compensation split and the Agent will thereafter be considered to be in a “Capped Status” until the expiration of the then-current Capping Period. The “Cap Reset Date” is the date upon which each new Capping Period begins and the amount of Company Dollar paid by Agent that has accrued towards the Company Dollar Cap will reset to zero. The Cap Reset Date for Agent will be the same as Agent’s Anniversary Date, except as otherwise expressly agreed to the contrary by separate written addendum to this ICA. Agent’s anniversary year (“Anniversary Year”) shall begin on Agent’s Anniversary Date with eXp and end on the day immediately preceding the next Anniversary Date. So, for example, if Agent’s Onboard Date is January 18, 2025, then Agent’s Anniversary Date would be February 1, 2025 and Agent’s Anniversary Year will run from February 1, 2025 through January 31, 2026, and continue for the same period each year thereafter. Except as otherwise expressly agreed to the contrary, an Agent’s Capping Period will directly overlap with Agent’s Anniversary Year.
