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.

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.

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.
