Management Fees would have been reduced pursuant to the provisions of this Section.

MANAGEMENT FEE; EXPENSES

     The Company agrees to reimburse the Manager and its Affiliates, within five (5) Business Days after the Commencement Date, for certain costs and expenses Incurred or to be Incurred prior to and in connection with the IPO upon the provision of reasonably sufficient support for such reimbursement. Any such reimbursement shall be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Manager from time to time.

Section 7.2 Management Fee

     (a) Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.2, for the term of this Agreement, (i) the MSA Administrator shall calculate the fee payable to the Manager in accordance with this Section 7.2 (the “Management Fee”), and the components thereof, in accordance with Section 7.2(b) hereof and (ii) the Company shall pay the Management Fee to the Manager in accordance with Section 7.2(d) hereof.

     (b) Calculation of Management Fee. Subject to Section 7.2(e) hereof, as payment to the Manager for performing Services hereunder during any Fiscal Quarter or any part thereof, the MSA Administrator, as of any Calculation Date with respect to such Fiscal Quarter, shall calculate, on or promptly following such Calculation Date, the Management Fee with respect to such Fiscal Quarter, which shall be equal to, as of such Calculation Date, the product of (i) 0.5%, multiplied by (ii) Adjusted Net Assets as of such Calculation Date; provided, however, that, with respect to the Fiscal Quarter in which the Commencement Date occurs, the Management Fee shall be equal to the product of (i)(x) 0.5%, multiplied by (y) the Adjusted Net Assets as of such Calculation Date, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the Commencement Date to and including the last day of such Fiscal Quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Fiscal Quarter; provided, further, however, that, with respect to the Fiscal Quarter in which this Agreement is terminated, the

Management Fee shall be equal to the product of (i)(x) 0.5%, multiplied by (y) the Adjusted Net Assets as of such Calculation Date, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the first day of such Fiscal Quarter to but excluding the date upon which this Agreement is terminated and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Fiscal Quarter (such amount so calculated in accordance with this proviso, the “Final Management Fee”).

     (c) Adjustment of Management Fee. The amount of any Management Fee calculated in accordance with Section 7.2(b) hereof as of any Calculation Date shall be adjusted, on a dollar-for-dollar basis (such Management Fee, as adjusted, the “Adjusted Management Fee”), by the MSA Administrator immediately prior to the Management Fee Payment Date with respect to such Calculation Date (such date of adjustment, the “Adjustment Date”) as follows:

     (i) reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees, if any, accrued by the Manager from any of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to such Fiscal Quarter as of the date of such adjustment; provided, that the Company shall separately guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the full, prompt and punctual payment of any unpaid Offsetting Management Fees, with full rights of subrogation;

     (ii) reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the aggregate amount of all Over-Paid Management Fees, if any, existing as of such Calculation Date;

     (iii) increased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the aggregate amount of all Under-Paid Management Fees, if any, existing as of such Calculation Date; and

     (iv) increased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid Management Fees, if any, as of such Calculation Date, without duplication of any of the foregoing.

     (d) Payment of Adjusted Management Fee. Subject to Section 7.2(f) hereof, the Company shall pay to the Manager, on the Management Fee Payment Date with respect to any Calculation Date, the Adjusted Management Fee as of such Calculation Date. Any such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Manager from time to time.

     (e) Basis for Calculation of Management Fee and Adjusted Management Fee. The calculation of the Management Fee, including the components thereof, with respect to any Fiscal Quarter on any Calculation Date shall be based on (i) the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements to the extent available, (ii) if audited consolidated financial statements are not available, then the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements to the extent available, and (iii) if neither audited nor unaudited consolidated financial statements are available, then the Company’s books and records then available; provided, that, with respect to any calculation of the Management Fee based on the Company’s books and records, upon availability of the earlier of (x) the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and (y) the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements, in each case, relating to amounts previously calculated on such Calculation Date by reference to the Company’s books and

records, the MSA Administrator shall recalculate (A) any Management Fees, and any components thereof, that were previously calculated based on such books and records and (B) any Adjusted Management Fees that were calculated based on such Management Fees, in each case, to determine if any Over-Paid Management Fee or Under-Paid Management Fee were outstanding as of such Calculation Date; provided, further, that the amount so recalculated shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto and no further recalculations shall be required or permitted except that a further recalculation shall be required and performed (A) upon a demonstration of clear error with respect to any prior calculation or recalculation or (B) upon the restatement of the consolidated financial statements of the Company, or any amounts therein, underlying any prior calculation or recalculation, in each case, at any time. The calculation of Adjusted Management Fees, including the components thereof, as of any Adjustment Date shall be made based on information that is available as of such Adjustment Date; provided, that if any events occur after such Adjustment Date that would affect the amount of Adjusted Management Fees calculated as of such Adjustment Date, then the MSA Administrator shall recalculate Adjusted Management Fees as of such Adjustment Date to determine if any Over-Paid Management Fee or Under-Paid Management Fee were created as of the Calculation Date immediately succeeding such Adjustment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the calculation of the Final Management Fee, including the components thereof, shall be made and based on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the applicable Fiscal Quarter when such unaudited consolidated financial statements are available; provided, that, once calculated, no further recalculation of Final Management Fee shall be required or permitted.

     (f) Sufficient Liquidity. If the Company does not have sufficient liquid assets to timely pay the entire amount of the Management Fee due on any Management Fee Payment Date, the Company shall liquidate assets or Incur Indebtedness in order to pay such Management Fee in full on such Management Fee Payment Date; provided, that the Manager may elect, in its sole discretion by delivery of written notice to the Company prior to such Management Fee Payment Date, to allow the Company to defer the payment of all or any portion of the Management Fee otherwise due and payable on such Management Fee Payment Date until the next succeeding Management Fee Payment Date and, thereby, enable the Company to avoid such liquidation or Incurrence. For the avoidance of doubt, the Manager may make such election to allow the Company to defer the payment of Management Fees more than once.

     (g) Books and Records. The MSA Administrator shall maintain cumulative books and records with respect to the details of any calculations made pursuant to this Section 7.2, which records shall be available for inspection and reproduction at any time upon request by the Board of Directors of the Company and, if the Manager is not the MSA Administrator, the Manager.

Section 7.3 Reimbursement of Expenses

     (i) all costs and expenses of the Company that are Incurred by the Manager or its Affiliates on behalf of the Company, including all out-of-pocket costs and expenses

Incurred in connection with performing Services hereunder, and all costs and expenses the reimbursement of which is specifically approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; and

     (ii) the compensation and other costs and expenses of the Chief Financial Officer and his or her staff, as approved by the Company’s compensation committee.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary herein, none of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or their Subsidiaries shall be obligated or responsible for reimbursing or otherwise paying for any costs or expenses relating to (i) the Manager’s overhead or any other costs and expenses relating to the Manager’s conduct or maintenance of its business and operations as a provider of services, (ii) costs and expenses Incurred by the Manager in connection with the identification, evaluation, management, performance of due diligence on, negotiating and oversight of potential acquisitions by the Company where the Company (or the Manager on behalf of the Company) does not submit an indication of interest or letter of intent to pursue such potential acquisition, including costs and expenses relating to travel, marketing and attendance at industry events and retention of outside service providers relating thereto and (iii) costs and expenses Incurred by the Manager in connection with the identification, evaluation, management, performance of due diligence on, negotiating and oversight of an acquisition by the Company if both (x) such acquisition is actually closed by the Company and (y) the Subsidiary so acquired, by any manner whatsoever, in connection with such acquisition has entered into a Transaction Services Agreement with the Manager under which such costs and expenses are being reimbursed.

     (c) Any such reimbursement shall be made upon demand by the Manager in U.S. dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Manager from time to time.

     (d) Except as otherwise provided for in this Section 7.3, all reimbursements made pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be reviewed by the Company’s compensation committee on an annual basis in connection with the preparation of the Company’s year-end audited consolidated financial statements. If the Company’s compensation committee identifies any discrepancy in such reimbursements, then the Company’s compensation committee, on behalf of the Company, and the Manager shall mutually resolve such discrepancy.

     Each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation as between the Parties directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto.
