Schedule 4 – Fees and Payments

Part A – Minimum Guarantee

3		$90,000
4		$120,000
5		$150,000
6		$180,000
7		$210,000
8		$240,000

(b)	At the end of month 5, the Revenue Share for month 5 amounts to $10,000. So, together, at the end of month 5, the Revenue Share and the Cumulative Amount Paid amount to $140,000 (this is called the Total Amount).

(c)	The Cumulative Minimum Guarantee Amount due in month 5 is $150,000.
