1.	MAC Partners will arrange for adequate working capital for Xxxx, to address Reva’s near-term debt service obligations and other cash needs. The funds are to be used for the Xxxx “broadband and wireless” division. MAC Partners’ efforts to arrange for adequate working capital for Xxxx shall be by means of equity fund-raising on behalf of Xxxx, loans to Xxxx (originated by MAC Partners or third parties), or other direct investment (by MAC Partners or third parties) in Xxxx. Such efforts may include inclusion of Xxxx in the “Seaside” investment fund. MAC Partners will coordinate its efforts with registered broker-dealers, as appropriate. The parties estimate Reva’s working capital needs to be approximately $300,000 over the next 90 calendar days.	MAC Partners will not be separately compensated for its efforts under items 1 & 2.
2.	MAC Partners will advise Xxxx on, and assist Newco (defined below) with arrangements for adequate working capital for Newco, estimated to be approximately $500,000 over the 12-month period following the spin-off of Reva’s “technology” division. MAC Partners will coordinate its efforts with registered broker-dealers, as appropriate.
