commencement date of this agreement.

3. Managerial Responsibilities and Obligations

3.1 Career Development and Good Faith: We commit to using all reasonable
efforts to advance and cultivate your career, providing all customary services of a
high-calibre manager in the entertainment industry. We shall act in all matters in
your best interests and in good faith. We will consult you regarding your career
aspirations and work closely with your legal advisors during any negotiations,
contractual agreements, or other significant business activities on your behalf.

to discuss your career plans. We will offer advice and assistance in strategising
your career trajectory and will advise you on opportunities and considerations
that could develop your career or boost your public image.

that payments due to you under any agreements are collected. Where advisable,
we will make prior arrangements to secure such payments.

other appearances that have your initial approval, we shall not have the authority
to enter into any agreements on your behalf. We further agree not to present
ourselves as having such authority.

potential conflict between our interests and yours, we will promptly disclose such
conflict in writing to you. This is to facilitate resolution in good faith and to allow

5.1 Commission Structure: In exchange for our management services, we will be

entitled to a commission amounting to 20% of all gross revenues (excluding VAT
or other comparable taxes) that you, or any entity controlled by you, receive
during the term of this agreement. This commission is applicable to revenues
generated through the various Artist Activities outlined in this agreement.

5.2 Post-Term Commission: For revenues generated up to five years after the
termination of this agreement, our commission will remain at 20%. Thereafter,
the commission will be reduced to 10% for an additional five years. Beyond ten
years post-termination, no commission will be payable.

5.3 Scope of Commission: Post-term commission entitlements will solely apply to

revenues generated from recordings released and performances undertaken
during the term of this agreement.
5.4 Exceptions and Clarifications: 5.4.1 Exclusions: We will not claim
commissions on advances allocated for recording, video, or tour support, nor on
equipment sales or other monies that are recoupable.

5.4.2 Live Performances: For live events and concerts, our commission will be
calculated on the Net Profit, which will be defined as the difference between the
gross income and the reasonable costs incurred for the event.

5.4.3 Third-Party Agents: If you engage the services of a third-party agent for
non-musical activities, the fees paid to such agents will be deducted from the
commission otherwise payable to us, provided that our commission will not be
reduced to less than 10%.

6. Financial Reporting and Accounting

6.1 Quarterly Accounting: You are to provide us with a detailed financial

statement within 30 days following the end of each calendar quarter. This
statement should outline all income received directly or indirectly related to Artist
Activities. At the same time, the due commission should be paid to us. For
personal advances exceeding £5,000, the commission must be paid within 30
days upon receipt of the advance and our approved invoice.

6.2 Transparency: You shall make reasonable efforts to provide us with copies of
all royalty statements you receive, both during and after the agreement term, for
earnings subject to commission under this agreement.

6.3 Income Collection: You have the right to collect all sums related to your Artist
Activities and may appoint an industry-experienced accountant to handle income
collection on your behalf.

6.4 Direct Payment: Any income we collect on your behalf will be passed directly
to you or your accountant without deductions. Our commission will be invoiced
separately, along with any incurred expenses related to your Artist Activities.

6.5 Expense Reimbursement: Costs outlined in Clause 7 will be reimbursed in

the next quarterly accounting cycle, provided you submit a claim supported by
original vouchers.

6.6 Record-Keeping: You agree to maintain accurate financial records related to

your Artist Activities for the duration of this agreement. Either party may conduct
an audit once a year, requiring 30 days of written notice and to be conducted
during normal business hours. Accounting statements not disputed within two
years will be considered accurate and binding.
6.7 Service Companies: If you engage with a service or employment company,
any income received by that entity will be considered as income received on your
behalf. However, we will not double charge commissions; once a commission is
paid on the gross income, no additional commission will be charged on monies
paid to you by such entity.

7. Expenses and Reimbursements

7.1 Office and Overhead Costs: We will cover our own office expenses and
general overheads, including but not limited to telephone, fax, email,
photocopying, and postage. Any additional expenses specifically incurred in
relation to fulfilling our obligations under this agreement will be agreed upon
through a written budget each quarter and reimbursed by you, in line with sub-
clause 6.5.

7.2 Spending Limit: We shall not incur expenses exceeding £50 on any item or
related series of items in a single month without obtaining your prior written
consent.

7.3 Intellectual Property: Any costs related to recording, filming, or photography

incurred by us will be considered as expenses under this agreement. All rights,
including copyrights, in any materials, recordings, videos, and photographs
featuring you and produced during the term, are hereby transferred to you for the
full period of copyright.

7.4 Expense Limitation: We acknowledge that expenses will only be reclaimed

from Gross Earnings, less applicable deductions, and shall not be treated as a
repayable loan from other funds.

designated "booking agent" who is appointed with your approval for coordinating
your live performances during the term of this agreement.

8.2 Approval and Identity: The selection and commission rate of any booking
agent or other third-party agent shall be subject to your approval.

services—except for reasonable periods of illness or holiday not exceeding three
consecutive weeks or six total weeks in any given calendar year—you reserve
the right to terminate this agreement immediately with written notice.
11. Assignment Clause
