Compensation and Fringe Benefits (a) The Company shall, during the Term of Employment, pay to the Executive as compensation for the performance of his duties and obligations a salary of $240,000 per annum. This compensation is subject to annual review and adjustment, as appropriate in the judgment of the Company. The compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall be payable in equal semi-monthly installments on the last day of each such pay period. (b) The Executive shall be enrolled and participate in any retirement, group insurance and other fringe benefit plans and arrangements which are applicable to the similarly situated personnel of the Company and in effect from time to time, if the Executive is eligible therefor, in each case in accordance with and subject to the provisions thereof.
Compensation and Reimbursement (a) The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as the Company and the Trustee may from time to time agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith and except as the Company and Trustee may from time to time agree in writing. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in the premises. (b) The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute indebtedness of the Company to which the Securities are subordinated. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities.
Compensation and Fees (a) As Dealer-Manager you shall receive from the Managing General Partner the following compensation, based on each Unit sold to investors in a Partnership whose subscriptions for Units are accepted by the Managing General Partner: (i) a 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee; (ii) a 7% Sales Commission; and (iii) an up to .5% reimbursement of the Selling Agents’ bona fide due diligence expenses. (b) All of the up to .5% reimbursement of the Selling Agents’ bona fide due diligence expenses shall be reallowed to the Selling Agents, and all or a portion of the 7% Sales Commission shall be reallowed to the Selling Agents as described in the Selling Agent Agreement with each Selling Agent. A portion of the balance of the 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee may be reallowed to the wholesalers as wholesaling fees for subscriptions obtained through their efforts. However, you may reduce the wholesaling fees by any reimbursements made by the Managing General Partner or the Partnership for expenses which are received by the wholesalers in connection with the Program or expenses which are owed by the wholesalers to the Managing General Partner or the Partnership in connection with the Program. Also, you may use a portion of your Dealer-Manager fee to pay for permissible non-cash compensation. Under Rule 2810 of the NASD Conduct Rules, non-cash compensation means any form of compensation received in connection with the sale of the units that is not cash compensation, including but not limited to merchandise, gifts and prizes, travel expenses, meals and lodging. Permissible non-cash compensation includes the following: (i) an accountable reimbursement for training and education meetings for associated persons of the selling agents; (ii) gifts that do not exceed $100 per year and are not preconditioned on achievement of a sales target; (iii) an occasional meal, a ticket to a sporting event or the theater, or comparable entertainment which is neither so frequent nor so extensive as to raise any question of propriety and is not preconditioned on achievement of a sales target; and (iv) contributions to a non-cash compensation arrangement between a selling agent and its associated persons, provided that neither the managing general partner nor the dealer-manager directly or indirectly participates in the selling agent’s organization of a permissible non-cash compensation arrangement. In no event shall a selling agent receive non-cash compensation and a marketing fee if it represents more than .5% per unit. You shall retain any of the 7% Sales Commission and the 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee not reallowed to the Selling Agents or the wholesalers. You are responsible for ensuring that all non-cash compensation arrangements comply with NASD Conduct Rule 2810. For example, payments or reimbursements by you or the Managing General Partner may be made in connection with meetings held by you or the Managing General Partner for the purpose of training or education of registered representatives of a Selling Agent, only if the following conditions are met: (i) the registered representative obtains his Selling Agent’s prior approval to attend the meeting and attendance by the registered representative is not conditioned by his Selling Agent on the achievement of a sales target; (ii) the location of the training and education meeting is appropriate to the purpose of the meeting as defined in NASD Conduct Rule 2810; (iii) the payment or reimbursement is not applied to the expenses of guests of the registered representative; (iv) the payment or reimbursement by you or the Managing General Partner is not conditioned by you or the Managing General Partner on the achievement of a sales target; and (v) the recordkeeping requirements are met. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) the Managing General Partner, its officers, directors, and affiliates, and investors who buy Units through the officers and directors of the Managing General Partner may subscribe to Units for a subscription price reduced by the 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee, the 7% Sales Commission and the up to .5% reimbursement of the Selling Agents’ bona fide due diligence expenses, which shall not be paid to you; and (ii) registered investment advisors and their clients and Selling Agents and their registered representatives and principals may subscribe to Units for a subscription price reduced by the 7% Sales Commission, which shall not be paid to you, although their subscription price shall not be reduced by the 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee and the up to .5% reimbursement of the Selling Agents’ bona fide due diligence expenses, which shall be paid to you. No more than 5% of the total Units sold in the Partnerships shall be sold, in the aggregate, with the discounts described above. (d) Pending receipt and acceptance by the Managing General Partner of the minimum subscription proceeds of $2,000,000 in each Partnership, excluding any optional subscription of the Managing General Partner and its Affiliates and the subscription discounts set forth in Section 4(c) of this Agreement, all proceeds received by you from the sale of Units in each Partnership shall be held in a separate interest bearing escrow account as provided in Section 15 of this Agreement. Unless at least the minimum subscription proceeds of $2,000,000 as described above are received on or before the Offering Termination Date of a Partnership as described in Section 1 of this Agreement, the offering of Units in that Partnership shall be terminated, in which event: (i) the 2.5% Dealer-Manager fee, the 7% Sales Commission and the up to .5% reimbursement of the Selling Agents’ bona fide due diligence expenses set forth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not be payable to you; (ii) all funds advanced by subscribers shall be returned to them with interest earned; and (iii) you shall deliver a termination letter in the form provided to you by the Managing General Partner to each of the subscribers and to each of the offerees previously solicited by you and the Selling Agents in connection with the offering of the Units. (e) Except as otherwise provided below, the fees, reimbursements, and Sales Commissions set forth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall be paid to you within five business days after the following: (i) at least the minimum subscription proceeds of $2,000,000 as described above have been received by the respective Partnership and accepted by the respective Partnership; and (ii) the subscription proceeds have been released from the escrow account to the respective Partnership. You shall reallow to the Selling Agents and the wholesalers their respective fees, reimbursements, and Sales Commissions as set forth in Section 4(b) of this Agreement. Thereafter, your fees, reimbursements and Sales Commissions shall be paid to you and shall be reallowed to the Selling Agents and wholesalers as described above approximately every two weeks until the Offering Termination Date for the respective Partnership. All your remaining fees, reimbursements, and Sales Commissions shall be paid to you by the Managing General Partner no later than fourteen business days after the Offering Termination Date for the respective Partnership.
Other Compensation and Fringe Benefits In addition to any executive bonus, pension, deferred compensation and long-term incentive plans which the Company or an affiliate of the Company may from time to time make available to the Employee, the Employee shall be entitled to the following during the Employment Term: (a) the standard Company benefits enjoyed by the Company’s other top executives as a group; (b) medical and other insurance coverage (for the Employee and any covered dependents) provided by the Company to its other top executives as a group; (c) supplemental disability insurance sufficient to provide two-thirds of the Employee’s pre-disability Annual Base Salary; (d) an annual incentive bonus opportunity under the Company’s annual incentive plan (“Annual Bonus Plan”) for each calendar year included in the Employment Term, with such opportunity to be earned based upon attainment of performance objectives established by the Committee (“Annual Bonus”). The Employee’s target Annual Bonus under the Annual Bonus Plan shall be no less than 150% of the Employee’s Annual Base Salary (collectively, the target and maximum are referred to as the “Annual Bonus Opportunity”). The Employee’s Annual Bonus Opportunity may be periodically reviewed and increased (but not decreased without the Employee’s express written consent) at the discretion of the Committee. The Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the March 15th first following the calendar year to which the Annual Bonus relates. Unless provided otherwise herein or the Board determines otherwise, no Annual Bonus shall be paid to the Employee unless the Employee is employed by the Company, or an affiliate thereof, on the Annual Bonus payment date; and (e) participation in the Company’s equity incentive plans.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Expenses to be incurred by an Indemnified Person shall, from time to time, be advanced by, or on behalf of, the Trust prior to the final disposition of any matter upon receipt by the Trust of an undertaking by, or on behalf of, such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Declaration.
Compensation and Indemnity The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as shall be agreed in writing by the Company and the Trustee, including for any Agent capacity in which it acts. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The obligations of the Company under this Section 8.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 8.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(9) or (10) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Code. The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.
Compensation and Billing 6.1 The Facility shall only seek payment from EGID for the provision of Covered Services. The Facility agrees to accept the amount of the Allowable Fee for Covered Services as payment in full and agrees to only request payment from the Member for deductible, co-insurance and amounts for defined Non-Covered Services attributable to the Member’s Health Choice Plan. The payment shall be calculated and limited to the methodologies defined by this Contract. 6.2 When the Allowable Fee exceeds billed charges, EGID shall pay the appropriate percentage of the Allowable Fee and Member shall pay the appropriate percentage of billed charges unless the Member has met the stop loss limitation and then EGID shall pay the Allowable Fee and the Member has no liability. 6.3 When processing inpatient claims, EGID shall determine the MS-DRG Allowable Fee for non- transfer cases according to the following formula: Skilled Nursing Facility Services, Day Treatment and Residential treatment will be reimbursed utilizing the per diem methodology. In no event shall a per diem qualify as an Outlier. These benefits shall be allowed when the Member has received Medically Necessary Covered Services subject to the following policy limitations and conditions: a) EGID shall pay the appropriate percentage of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee and the Member shall pay the remainder of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee unless the Member has met the stop loss limitation, and then EGID shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee and the Member has no liability. b) The MS-DRG shall be controlling, subject to EGID’s approval and Article X of the Contract. c) The MS-DRG Allowable Fee does not include any physician professional component fees, which are considered for payment according to separately billed Current Procedural Terminology code Allowable Fees. d) EGID may reduce its payment by any deductibles, coinsurance and co- payments owed by the Member. e) EGID shall include the day of admission but not the day of discharge when computing the number of facility days provided to a Member. Observation Facility confinements for which a room and board charge is incurred shall be paid based on inpatient benefits. f) In the case of a transfer, the Transfer Allowable Fee for the transferring Facility shall be calculated as follows: Transfer Allowable Fee = (MS-DRG Allowable Fee/Geometric Mean Length of Stay) x (Length of Stay + 1 day) The total Transfer Allowable Fee paid to the transferring Facility shall be capped at the amount of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee for a non-transfer case. EGID shall allow payment to the receiving Facility, if it is also the final discharging Facility, at the MS- DRG Allowable Fee as if it were an original admission. g) EGID shall use the current version of the CMS MS-DRG grouper to categorize what shall constitute a procedure. XXXX’s and the Member’s financial liability shall be limited to the Allowable Fee as determined by XXXX. h) The Facility agrees not to charge more for Medical Services to Members than the amount normally charged by the Facility to other patients for similar services. i) For Outlier cases, EGID shall base its payment to the Facility using an Outlier Allowable Fee plus the MS-DRG Allowable Fee. The following formula shall be utilized to calculate the Outlier Allowable Fee: Outlier Allowable Fee = [Billed Charges – (MS-DRG Allowable Fee + Outlier Threshold)] x Marginal Cost Factor 6.4 When processing Outpatient claims, XXXX agrees to pay the Facility the Allowable Fee based on appropriate billing according to the following: a) If a procedure does not have an Allowable Fee, EGID will allow a percentage of the billed charges for Covered Services. b) EGID shall pay the appropriate percentage of the Allowable Fee and the Member shall pay the remainder based on the Member’s plan of benefits unless the Member has met the stop loss limitation, and then EGID shall pay 100% of the Allowable Fee and the Member has no liability.
