Payments for the Administrative Services Fees and Distribution Services fees will be paid electronically as per the Distributor’ s Electronic Payment Form, as signed by the Company. You further agree to update such electronic payment information as needed to make the payments
(e) Other than those payments specifically set forth herein, no dealer concessions or other service or distribution fees shall be paid to the Company.
3. Exhibit B. EXHIBIT B is hereby deleted in its entirety and is replaced by a new EXHIBIT B attached hereto.
