Administration Fee As compensation for the performance of the Administrator’s obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Administrator shall be entitled to receive the Administration Fee in accordance with Section 8.4 of the Indenture. The Administrator shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder.
DIR Administrative Fee A. The administrative fee to be paid by the Vendor to DIR based on the dollar value of all sales to Customers pursuant to this Contract is three-quarter of one percent (.75%). Payment will be calculated for all sales, net of returns and credits. For example, the administrative fee for sales totaling $100,000 shall be $750.00.
B. All prices quoted to Customers shall include the administrative fee. DIR reserves the right to change this fee upwards or downwards during the term of this Contract, upon written notice to Vendor without further requirement for a formal contract amendment. Any change in the administrative fee shall be incorporated in the price to the Customer.
TIPS Administration Fees The collection of administrative fees by TIPS, a government entity, for performance of these procurement services is required pursuant to Texas Government Code Section 791.011 et. seq. The administration fee (“TIPS Administration Fee”) is the amount legally owed by Vendor to TIPS for TIPS Sales made by Vendor. The TIPS Administration Fee amount is typically a set percentage of the amount paid by the TIPS Member for each TIPS Sale, less shipping cost, bond cost, and taxes if applicable and identifiable, which is legally due to TIPS, but the exact TIPS Administration Fee for this Contract is published in the corresponding solicitation and is incorporated herein by reference. TIPS Administration Fees are due to TIPS immediately upon Vendor’s receipt of payment, including partial payment, for a TIPS Sale. The TIPS Administration Fee is assessed on the amount paid by the TIPS Member, not on the Vendor’s cost or on the amount for which the Vendor sold the item to a dealer or Authorized Reseller. Upon receipt of payment for a TIPS Sale, including partial payment (which renders TIPS Administration Fees immediately due), Vendor shall issue to TIPS the corresponding TIPS Administration Fee payment as soon as possible but not later than thirty-one calendar days following Vendor’s receipt of payment. Vendor shall pay TIPS via check unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing. Vendor shall include clear documentation with the issued payment dictating to which sale(s) the amount should be applied. Vendor may create a payment report within their TIPS Vendor Portal which is the preferred documentation dictating to which TIPS Sale(s) the amount should be applied. Failure to pay all TIPS Administration Fees pursuant to this provision may result in immediate cancellation of Vendor’s TIPS Contract(s) for cause at TIPS’ sole discretion as well as the initiation of collection and legal actions by TIPS against Vendor to the extent permitted by law. Any overpayment of participation fees to TIPS by Vendor will be refunded to the Vendor
Administration Fees We will inform You separately of any administration fees that may apply to Your policy. In the event of policy cancellation, any cancellation fee may be deducted from any refund of premium due to You. Subject to Your policy terms and conditions, no refund will be issued in the event of a policy cancellation if a valid claim has been made (or is intended to be made) or a circumstance has been notified under that policy. We reserve the right to deduct any unpaid premium from any claim settlement. In addition to commission, fees and administration fees, We may receive other income from insurers or third parties, including but not limited to additional payments from insurers based upon pre-agreed criteria. For arranging premium instalment facilities, We earn a variable amount of commission from Our premium finance provider which is usually a percentage of the interest that You pay. This means that the amount You pay for credit and the overall cost of arranging Your insurance will vary according to the interest charged by the lender and the amount of commission We earn. There may be occasions where there is a choice of instalment payment options which may charge different interest rates. Typically, if Your policy is paid via a direct debit instalment arrangement directly with the insurer, We will not receive any additional payments outside of the commission/fees earned for arranging Your policy. Using premium finance rather than paying the premium in one amount makes the overall cost of the insurance more expensive. A full breakdown of the cost of Your insurance and the cost of credit will be provided as part of Your new business or renewal quotation before You decide whether to proceed. Please be assured that the way in which We are remunerated will not at any time conflict with Our responsibilities to meet Your needs and treat You fairly. We have agreements in place with certain insurers that We will undertake certain activities on their behalf which may include producing policy documentation, compilation of risk data, risk identification surveys, and claims management. In return for these services certain insurers will make a payment to Us. These payments are separate, and in addition to, any commissions, or fees and administration fees that You pay Us. You are entitled at any time to request information regarding any commission or other income which We may have received as a result of placing Your insurance business or arranging Your premium finance. We will provide full details in writing where such request is made within seven (7) working days.

Section 4.7 Upon the written request of the Union, the Employer/University Administration shall terminate any bargaining unit member who, after written notice, has refused to pay the agency fee. Within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such request, accompanied by the written notice, the Employer/University Administration shall notify the Union and the individual bargaining unit members whose names appear on such request that the bargaining unit members have been terminated. The Union will intervene in and defend any administrative or court litigation concerning the propriety of such termination for failure to pay the agency fee. In such litigation, the Employer/University Administration shall have no obligation to defend the termination.

Settlement Administration 5.1. The Settlement Administrator shall, under the supervision of the Court, administer the relief provided by this Settlement Agreement by processing Claim Forms in a rational, responsive, cost effective, and timely manner. The Settlement Administrator shall maintain reasonably detailed records of its activities under this Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Administrator shall maintain all such records as are required by applicable law in accordance with its normal business practices and such records will be made available to Class Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel upon request. The Settlement Administrator shall also provide reports and other information to the Court as the Court may require. The Settlement Administrator shall provide Class Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel with information concerning Notice, administration, and implementation of the Settlement Agreement. Should the Court request, the Parties, in conjunction with the Settlement Administrator, shall submit a timely report to the Court summarizing the work performed by the Settlement Administrator, including a report of all amounts paid to each Settlement Class Member on account of Approved Claims. Without limiting the foregoing, the Settlement Administrator shall:
(a) Forward to Defendants’ Counsel, with copies to Class Counsel, all documents and other materials received in connection with the administration of the Settlement Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date on which all Claim Forms have been finally approved or disallowed per the terms of the Settlement Agreement;
(b) Receive requests for exclusion and other requests from the Settlement Class and promptly provide a copy of such requests to Class Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel upon receipt (“the Opt-Out List”). If the Settlement Administrator receives any exclusion forms or other requests from the Settlement Class after the Objection/Exclusion Deadline, the Settlement Administrator shall promptly provide copies thereof to Class Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel;
(c) Provide weekly reports to Class Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel, including without limitation, reports regarding the number of Claim Forms received, the number determined to be rejected, the number of Approved Claims, and the number of calls to be paid per Settlement Class Member; and
(d) Make available for inspection by Class Counsel or Defendants’ Counsel the Claim Forms, any documentation or other evidence submitted in support thereof, and any correspondence received by the Settlement Administrator at any time upon reasonable notice.
5.2. The Settlement Administrator shall employ reasonable procedures to screen claims for abuse or fraud, including without limitation, by cross-referencing the information provided on the Claim Form against the Class List, and by reviewing the evidentiary proof submitted by Settlement Class Members. The Settlement Administrator shall reject a Claim Form, or any part of a claim for a payment reflected therein, where there is evidence of abuse or fraud. The Settlement Administrator shall also reject a Claim Form that does not contain all requested information necessary to screen the claim for fraud or abuse, after giving the claimant a reasonable opportunity of no greater than twenty-one (21) days to provide any requested missing information. The Settlement Administrator shall notify the claimant regarding the missing information via email, telephone call or direct mail, whichever is the most practical based on the information provided in the Claim Form. The validation of all Claim Forms by the Settlement Administrator shall occur no later than fourteen (14) days after the Effective Date and the Settlement Administrator shall give notice of such validation to counsel on that date.
5.3. Defendants and the Class Representatives will have the right to challenge the number of calls received by each Settlement Class Member that are eligible for payment. All challenges will be presented to the Special Master who will make a binding determination as to the number of calls received by each Settlement Class Member entitled to receive payment on account of an Approved Claim. To effectuate such challenge, the party making the challenge must provide email notice to the Settlement Administrator, Special Master and opposing counsel informing them of the claim(s) that party seeks to challenge and the factual basis for that challenge within thirty (30) days of the Settlement Administrator’s validation of all Claim Forms as an Approved Claims determination of the number of calls entitled to a pro rata payment, and notice of the validation. Challenges must be made to individual or designated groups of Claim Forms; so-called “blanket” or “mass” challenges to all Claim Forms without differentiation will not be allowed.
5.4. For Settlement Class Members that submit a Claim Form indicating that they received three (3) calls or fewer, the presumption of three (3) calls can be rebutted by Defendants’ challenges. All other Settlement Class Members will have the ultimate burden if their Claim Form is challenged to demonstrate the number of calls, greater than one (1), that they received.
5.5. In the event of a challenge, the Settlement Administrator shall notify each Settlement Class Member via email, telephone call or direct mail, whichever is the most practical based on the information provided in the Claim Form, that (i) the Settlement Class Member must within thirty (30) days either submit supplemental documentation to prove each call claimed or schedule a telephonic hearing with the Special Master where the Settlement Class Member must testify as to the basis for each separate call claimed, (ii) the Settlement Class Member has the burden of proving the specific number of calls received, and (iii) that the Settlement Class Member will still receive a payment on account of an Approved Claim regardless of the outcome of the challenge. Following the Claims Deadline, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days after Final Judgment, the Special Master will make a determination regarding the claims under challenge, including the number of calls received by the Settlement Class Member
(1) based on the information already submitted, and (2) by requiring additional information in the form of (i) either supplemental documentation to prove each call claimed or testimony before the Special Master as to the basis for each separate call claimed. The Special Master’s determination regarding the claims under challenge shall be final and binding on the Parties. If the challenged Settlement Class Member does not timely submit the supplemental documentation or testify before the Special Master, the Special Master shall sustain the Defendants’ challenge and the Settlement Class Member will have an Approved Claim for one
(1) call. If the challenged Settlement Class Member does timely submit the supplemental documentation or testify before the Special Master, the Special Master will then, in his sole discretion, make a determination as to the number of calls for which the Settlement Class member can recover. To the extent the Special Master sustains Defendants’ challenge, the Settlement Class member will be permitted to recover for at least one (1) call.
Sharing of Reimbursement Obligation Payments Whenever the Agent receives a payment from the Borrower on account of reimbursement obligations in respect of a Letter of Credit or Credit Support as to which the Agent has previously received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer thereof payment from a Lender, the Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment from the Borrower. Each such payment shall be made by the Agent on the next Settlement Date.
