splits and all variable compensation (but, for clarity, not draws) payable to other Company employees or
representatives have been deducted from such Fees) in respect of all Employment Period Contracts with
all Company Clients, including, Demarcus Cousins and Chandler Parsons, but specifically excluding
Dwight Howard, Ricky Rubio and John Wall, for the life of each such Employment Period Contract,
regardless of when each such Employment Period Contract or the Employment Period expires (except as
expressly provided herein). For clarity, Employee shall not be responsible, and there shall not be any
deduction from, amounts payable to Employee for salaries, bonuses, draws or any other amounts not
directly attributable to such Fees collected by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee shall
be entitled to receive the foregoing Variable Compensation as Continuing Compensation following the
termination of Employee's employment as provided under subsections(a),(b)(d)and (e)of Section 7
(but excluding Section 7(c)).
"Applicable Percentage" means (i)following the Term and only with respect to Employment
Period Contracts that commence for the 2016/17 or the 2017/18 NBA season, thirty percent(30%), or (ii)
in all other cases, twenty percent(20%
For example, if during the Term the Company collects and receives Fees equal to $100,000 with
respect to an Employment Period Contract with a Company Client and the Company has to pay $25,000
to third parties on account of third-party fee splits and a total of $15,000 to other Company employees as
variable compensation (including internal fee splits and bonuses), then Employee will receive $12,000
[($100,000 - $25,000 - $15,000) x 20% _ $12,000] as Variable Compensation. For clarity and
illustrative purposes only, Exhibit B attached hereto sets forth the methodology by which Variable
Compensation for Employee will be calculated.
Employee's right to its percentage offees as set forth above shall be fully vested upon the
Company's or its affiliate's entitlement to such Fees. Company shall not be obligated to remit any sums to
the Employee until the Company or its affiliate has actually received payment of such Fees; provided that
the Employee shall use his commercially reasonable efforts to collect all Fees in a timely fashion;
provided, further, any Fees due to the Employee pursuant to clauses (a) and (b)that are received by the
Company shall be applied to the oldest outstanding amount due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total
amount of Variable Compensation payable for any calendar year or portion thereof shall be reduced
dollar-for-dollar (but not below zero) by the Base Salary actually paid for such period. The Company
shall make payments owed to Employee for such collected moneys on a quarterly basis.
If the Company fails to make any payment provided herein as and when due, the Company shall
(i) pay all ofthe Employee's collection costs, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, and (ii) pay

interest on the amount due amount at a rate equal to the lower of 1.5%per month or the highest rate
permitted by applicable law. Such remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive. For a period of three
years after the Outside Date, Employee has the right to audit the financial and business records of the
Company and Relativity Sports relating to any and all Fees at any one or several times, at the Employee's
expense (except as provided below), to ensure compliance with this Section. If such audit reveals that the
Company has paid less than 95% of the sums due the Employee with respect to any calendar year, then
the Company shall bear the full expense of the audit. Such remedy is cumulative and not exclusive.
Bonus:
In addition, the Employee may from time to time receive an annual discretionary bonus as determined by
the Board from time to time in its discretion, subject to Employee's eligibility for any such bonus.
