NuPro will contribute forty percent (40%) of the net operating profits
for that same period toward repayment of the outstanding balance of
Fees.. Funds paid in such a manner shall be distributed in equal
increments to Krida and Xxxxxxxx, payable 120 days after the fiscal
year end.

portion of those equity contributions to retire all outstanding and
unpaid Fees.

minimum of $25,000 annually plus any applicable withholding taxes. Any such
advances to Krida shall reduce the unpaid balance of the Fees accordingly.
