FORM F

MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
KNOWN ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS: I, _____________________________________________ of legal age, with valid postal address at _________________________________________________________________________, do hereby agree to the following terms and conditions of the STUDENT CULTURAL EXCHANGE AND TRAVEL USA PROGRAM or WORK AND TRAVEL USA PROGRAM and DREAM SEARCH INTERNATIONAL, INC.:

For the Program (Dream Search / GeoVisions):


1. I agree to follow the terms and Conditions by Dream Search International, Inc.s Student Cultural Exchange and Travel Program. 2. I agree to follow all program rules of the GeoVisions Holiday Work/Travel Program as listed in the GeoVisions Student Handbook and on the GeoVisions website. I understand that Geovisions can terminate my participation in the program if I violate their rules. 3. I understand that if Geovisions issues a Form DS-2019 to me, this does not guarantee I will be issued a J-1 visa from a US Embassy or Consulate. 4. I certify that I am a full-time student and will return to my country as a full-time student.

5. I understand that I must notify GeoVisions of my arrival in the United States within three days of my
arrival at my employer. I understand that I am responsible for the costs of my transportation to my employer. 6. I understand that I must report to work at the employer listed on my Form DS-2019, and that this is the ONLY job at which I am authorized to work (other than additional jobs that do not interfere with my work at my primary employer).

7. I understand that I must work for the entire time period agreed to with my employer. If I leave my job
before the agreed upon End Date, I understand that my visa may be terminated, and that this could jeopardize my ability to get future visas to the United States, and I should leave the USA within 3 days. 8. I understand that, especially at the beginning of my program, I might be working limited hours, and I must bring sufficient money with me to cover expenses during this period. 9. I understand that any estimate of weekly hours is based on an average of hours I can expect to work in a complete season.

10. I understand that, if my employer provides housing, I am OBLIGED to live in that housing, even if I find
cheaper housing in the area, or even if I have friends/relatives living nearby.

11. I agree to advise GeoVisions IMMEDIATELY if any information provided on my application or Form DS2019 changes. This includes, but is not limited to, changes in medical information or in the start and end dates for my job.

12. I understand that I can be fired from my job. I agree to contact GeoVisions and DSII
IMMEDIATELY if this happens. I understand I may not, under any circumstances, find another job on my own without permission IN ADVANCE from GeoVisions. Being fired from my job is a ground for termination from the program, however, if GeoVisions agrees to let me remain on the program, and, if I am a participant on a Basic Program, I must go to another GeoVisions employer, which may, or may not, be in the same area, or have the same type of work.

13. I will not attempt to stay in the United States to continue working beyond the ending date on my Form DS2019.

14. I understand that GeoVisions provides medical insurance for me for the period covered on my Form DS2019, but not for the 30-day travel period following my job. I understand I can purchase an extension of my insurance from Dream Search International, Inc.

15. I understand that violations of any program rules may result in termination from the GeoVisions Program,
which will result in the cancellation of my visa. If I am terminated from the program, I understand that I must leave the United States immediately after 3 days.

16. I agree that I will not apply for a change of visa while in the United States.
17. I agree that I will inform Dream Search International, Inc. and GeoVisions of my whereabouts in the United States during the extended 1 month travel period. 18. I hereby agree to return to my country after the Student Cultural Exchange and Travel USA Program or Work and Travel USA program period inclusive of the 1-month travel extension period. 19. I agree that I should return to my country not later than __________________, which automatically becomes my maximum period of stay in the United States.
