Distribution assistance fee payments shall be made only to Recipients that are registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer or are exempt from registration. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Recipients in connection with the sale of Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: distributing sales literature and prospectuses other than those furnished to current Shareholders, providing compensation to and paying expenses of personnel of the Recipient who support the distribution of Shares by the Recipient, and providing such other information and services in connection with the distribution of Shares as the Distributor or the Fund may reasonably request.

Such Asset-Based Sales Charge payments received from the Fund will compensate the Distributor for providing distribution assistance in connection with the sale of Shares. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Distributor in connection with the Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (i) paying sales commissions to any broker, dealer, bank or other person or entity that sells Shares, and/or paying such persons “Advance Service Fee Payments” (as defined below) in advance of, and/or in amounts greater than, the amount provided for in Section 3(b) of this Agreement; (ii) paying compensation to and expenses of personnel of the Distributor who support distribution of Shares by Recipients; (iii) obtaining financing or providing such financing from its own resources, or from an affiliate, for the interest and other borrowing costs of the Distributor's unreimbursed expenses incurred in rendering distribution assistance and administrative support services to the Fund; and (iv) paying other direct distribution costs, including without limitation the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses (other than those prospectuses furnished to current holders of the Fund's shares ("Shareholders")) and state "blue sky" registration expenses.
Lump Sum Payment NewMil Bancorp shall make a lump sum payment to the Executive in an amount in cash equal to one times the Executive’s annual compensation. For purposes of this Agreement, annual compensation means (a) the Executive’s annual base salary on the date of the Change in Control or the Executive’s termination of employment, whichever amount is greater, plus (b) any bonuses or incentive compensation earned for the calendar year immediately before the year in which the Change in Control occurred or immediately before the year in which termination of employment occurred, whichever amount is greater, regardless of when the bonus or incentive compensation is or was paid. NewMil Bancorp recognizes that the bonus and incentive compensation earned by the Executive for a particular year’s service might be paid in the year after the calendar year in which the bonus or incentive compensation is earned. The amount payable to the Executive hereunder shall not be reduced to account for the time value of money or discounted to present value. The payment required under this Section 2(a)(1) is payable no later than 5 business days after the date the Executive’s employment terminates. If the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason, the date of termination shall be the date specified by the Executive in his notice of termination.
Annual Incentive Payment The Executive shall participate in the Company's Management Incentive Plan (or such alternative, successor, or replacement plan or program in which the Company's principal operating executives, other than the Chief Executive Officer, generally participate) and shall have a targeted incentive thereunder of not less than $240,000 per year; provided, however, that the Executive's actual incentive payment for any year shall be measured by the Company's performance against goals established for that year and that such performance may produce an incentive payment ranging from none to 200% of the targeted amount. The Executive's incentive payment for any year will be appropriately pro-rated to reflect a partial year of employment.
Cash Severance Payment Provided that Executive complies with Section 5 below, Executive shall receive a lump sum cash payment in an amount equal to fifteen (15) months of Executive’s the effective base salary (less applicable withholding), paid within ten (10) business days of the effective date of the Termination Upon a Change of Control.

For avoidance of doubt, the amount paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 3(b)(iii) will not be prorated based on the actual amount of time Executive is employed by the Company during the fiscal year (or the relevant performance period if something different than a fiscal year) during which the termination occurs.
Earn-Out Payment As part of the Consideration, the Acquirer shall cause the REIT to pay to the Contributor (or its designee), within sixty (60) days after the "Calculation Date" (as defined below), an amount equal to the Earn-Out Payment (as calculated below); provided, however, that the amount of the Earn-Out Payment shall not exceed $1,800,000. If during the period beginning on the date on which the Project is open for business and available for use by paying overnight guests and ending on the date which is thirty-six (36) full calendar months after the last day of the month in which such opening date occurs (the "Calculation Date") the cumulative "Operating Profit" for the Project (as that term is defined in that certain Management Agreement to be entered into as of Closing (the "Management Agreement") between the TRS Affiliate (as defined below) and Crestline Hotels & Resorts, Inc.) is more than $9,500,000, then the Earn-Out Payment shall be equal to fifty percent (50%) of the difference between (a) the actual amount of the cumulative Operating Profit (as of the Calculation Date) for such 3-year period, and (b) $9,500,000. In the event the cumulative Operating Profit for such 3-year period is $9,500,000 or less, then no Earn-Out Payment shall be payable. If the Contributor is entitled to the Earn-Out Payment pursuant to this Section 1.3, then the Contributor (or its designee) shall receive the Earn-Out Payment in the form of Units, provided the Contributor (or its designee) continues to be an "accredited investor" as described herein. The number of Units delivered to the Contributor (or its designee) shall be equal to the calculated amount of the Earn-Out Payment divided by the average closing price per Common Share of the REIT for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the Calculation Date.
Incentive Payment During the period of Executive's employment under this Agreement, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in an incentive compensation program implemented by the Board (the "Annual Incentive Bonus").
