				 7.1.2.
			Fantex will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to each Equity Deal Notice within five (5) business days (but no later than ten (10) business days), indicating whether or not Fantex elects to (x) participate in the applicable Equity Income by being issued and holding a direct equity interest in the applicable issuer of such Equity Income (“Direct Fantex Equity”) in an amount calculated by multiplying the Brand Percentage by the shares, membership interests, units (or other reasonable means of measurement) of such Equity Income payable to Participant (any of the foregoing, a “Fantex Equity Interest”), or (y) indirectly participate in the applicable Equity Income as described in Section 7.4 (“Indirect Fantex Equity”).

				 7.1.3.
			If Fantex fails to timely respond to any Equity Deal Notice, then Fantex shall be deemed to have expressly rejected receiving the Direct Fantex Equity with respect to such Brand Income Contract, and elected instead to receive Indirect Fantex Equity.  




			
	
			
				 7.1.4.
			If the terms and conditions with respect to any Equity Income change in any material respect from what were previously presented to Fantex in any Equity Deal Notice, then Participant shall provide a new Equity Deal Notice to Fantex with the updated terms and conditions, and this Section 7.1 shall apply to such new Equity Deal Notice.

				 7.2.2.
			Fantex shall pay to Participant an amount equal to the amount of any self-employment taxes payable by Participant, or the amount of any payroll, medicare or FICA taxes or other deductions or payments required to be made to any federal, state or local government (other than taxes based on the income of Participant), in each case to the extent resulting from any Direct Fantex Equity or Indirect Fantex Equity, as applicable.  Fantex shall pay such amounts due under this Section 7.2.2 within five (5) business days after receipt of notice from Participant detailing such amounts (which notice will be delivered after delivery of the stock certificates or other documentation evidencing such Equity Income, or in the case of a warrant, option or other similar right to acquire stock or other equity interest, after exercising such warrant, option or right to acquire the stock or other equity interest).    




			
	
			
				 7.2.3.
			In addition, to the extent that Participant incurs any necessary and reasonable additional cost or expense resulting from Fantex participating (whether via Direct Fantex Equity or Indirect Fantex Equity) in such Equity Income, then Fantex shall pay such incremental costs incurred by Participant (i.e., over and above such amounts that Participant would have incurred but for Fantex’s participation) within fifteen (15) days after Fantex receives an invoice from Participant for such amount.  




			
	
			
				 7.3.
			Direct Fantex Equity.  If Fantex elects to receive Direct Fantex Equity, then Participant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of such equity to issue the applicable Fantex Equity Interest directly to Fantex (and such efforts shall be deemed to be satisfied if Participant or his representatives attempt to arrange for an introduction (including via electronic communications) between representatives of Fantex and representatives of such issuer); provided, however, that if (after such efforts by Participant) such issuer does not agree to issue the applicable Fantex Equity Interest directly to Fantex, then Fantex shall receive Indirect Fantex Equity with respect to such Equity Income as provided in Section 7.4.  If Fantex receives Direct Fantex Equity and Participant is required to execute any documentation (including subscription agreements, warrants and option agreements) for such Equity Income, then Fantex shall be required to execute substantially similar documentation, as applicable.




			
	
			
				 7.4.
			Indirect Fantex Equity.  If Fantex receives Indirect Fantex Equity (whether by Fantex’s election, or because the issuer of such Equity Income does not agree to issue Direct Fantex Equity

	to Fantex), then, without limiting Fantex’s obligations under Section 7.2, (y) Fantex shall be entitled to receive as part of the Brand Amount hereunder an amount equal to the Brand Percentage of any Distributions to Participant with respect to such Equity Income, and (z) upon Fantex’s request, Participant will grant to Fantex a security interest in such Equity Income, and will do all acts and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all agreements, documents and instruments that Fantex may reasonably require, and take all further steps relating to the Equity Income and such security interest that Fantex may reasonably require, to perfect such security interest and Fantex’s rights therein and hereunder.




			
	
			
				 8.
			

			
	
			
			Co-Investment Opportunity:  In the event that Participant receives, pursuant to any Brand Income Contract, the right or opportunity to invest in any other Person, including the right to purchase any stock or other equity interests (including membership interests and partnership interests) (each, a “Brand Investment Opportunity”), then the following shall apply:




			
	
			
				 8.1.
			Notice and Response:    




			
	
			
				 8.1.1.
			Participant shall provide reasonable advance written notice (an “Investment Deal Notice”) to Fantex prior to entering into any Brand Income Contract pursuant to which Participant receives any Brand Investment Opportunity, including all details reasonably necessary for Fantex to evaluate such Brand Investment Opportunity.    




			
	
			
				 8.1.2.
			Fantex will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to each Investment Deal Notice within five (5) business days (but no later than ten (10) business days), indicating whether or not Fantex elects to (a) participate in the applicable Brand Investment Opportunity by being issued and holding a direct equity interest in the applicable issuer of such equity (“Direct Fantex Co-Investment”) in an amount calculated by multiplying the Brand Percentage by the number of shares, membership interests, units (or other reasonable means of measurement) applicable to such Brand Investment Opportunity (any of the foregoing, a “Fantex Co-Investment Interest”), or (b) indirectly participate in the applicable Brand Investment Opportunity as described in Section 8.4 (“Indirect Fantex Co-Investment”).    




			
	
			
				 8.1.3.
			If Fantex fails to timely respond to any Investment Deal Notice, then Fantex shall be deemed to have expressly rejected participating as either a Direct Fantex Co-Investment or an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment with respect to such Brand Investment Opportunity, and elected instead to not participate in such Brand Investment Opportunity.  




			
	
			
				 8.1.4.
			If the terms and conditions with respect to any Brand Investment Opportunity change from what were previously presented to Fantex in any Investment Deal Notice, then Participant shall provide a new Investment Deal Notice to Fantex with the updated terms and conditions, and this Section 8.1 shall apply to such new Equity Deal Notice. 




			
	
			
				 8.2.
			Fantex Participation; Reimbursement of Costs: 




			
	
			
				 8.2.1.
			If Participant is required to make any payment as consideration for any equity interest being issued in connection with such Brand Investment Opportunity (e.g., payments required for the purchase of any such equity interests) (a “Purchase Payment”), and Fantex elects to participate in such Brand Investment Opportunity either as a Direct Fantex Co-Investment or an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment, then Fantex shall contribute to Participant or such other Person as the Parties may mutually agree depending on the structure of the Indirect Fantex Co-Investment (in the case of an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment), or pay directly to the applicable issuer (in the case of a Direct Fantex Co-Investment) an amount equal to the product of the Brand Percentage multiplied by such Purchase Payment timely and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Brand Income Contract relating to such Brand Investment Opportunity (which shall be deemed to include any subscription agreement, purchase agreement or other agreement pursuant to which Participant and Fantex, if applicable, participates in such Brand Investment Opportunity).

				 8.2.2.
			In addition, to the extent that Participant would incur any necessary and reasonable additional cost or expense resulting from Fantex participating (whether via Direct Fantex Co-Investment or Indirect Fantex Co-Investment) in such Brand Investment Opportunity (including costs relating to the structuring or documentation of any joint ventures, investment vehicles, special purpose entities or similar relationships between the Parties to hold the securities relating to such Brand Investment Opportunity), then Fantex shall pay directly, or reimburse Participant for, such incremental costs incurred by Participant (i.e., over and above such amounts that Participant would have incurred but for Fantex’s participation) within fifteen (15) days after Fantex receives an invoice from Participant for such amount.




			
	
			
				 8.3.
			Direct Fantex Co-Investment.  If Fantex elects to participate in a Direct Fantex Co-Investment, then Participant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of such equity to issue the applicable Fantex Co-Investment Interest directly to Fantex (and such efforts shall be deemed to be satisfied if Participant or his representatives attempt to arrange for an introduction (including via electronic communications) between representatives of Fantex and representatives of such issuer); provided, however, that if (after such efforts by Participant) such issuer does not agree to issue the applicable Fantex Co-Investment Interest directly to Fantex, then Fantex shall instead participate via an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment with respect to such Brand Investment Opportunity as provided in Section 8.4.  If Fantex participates in a Direct Fantex Co-Investment and Participant is required to execute any documentation (including subscription agreements and purchase agreements) in connection with such Brand Investment Opportunity, then Fantex shall be required to execute substantially similar documentation, as applicable.




			
	
			
				 8.4.
			Indirect Fantex Equity.    




			
	
			
				 8.4.1.
			If Fantex participates in a Brand Investment Opportunity via an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment (whether by Fantex’s election, or because the issuer of the equity interest related to such Brand Investment Opportunity does not agree to permit a Direct Fantex Co-Investment), then, without limiting Fantex’s obligations under Section 8.2, (a) Fantex shall be entitled to receive as part of the Brand Amount hereunder an amount equal to the Brand Percentage of any Distributions to Participant with respect to such Brand Investment Opportunity, and (b) upon Fantex’s request, Participant will grant to Fantex a security interest in such equity acquired pursuant to such Brand Investment Opportunity, and will do all acts and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all agreements, documents and instruments that Fantex may reasonably require, and take all further steps relating to the Brand Investment Opportunity and such security interest that Fantex may reasonably require, to perfect such security interest and Fantex’s rights therein and hereunder.  For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Section 8, it is the mutual intention of the Parties (to be interpreted in the broadest possible manner) that Participant shall not have, incur or suffer any liability, responsibility, damage, cost or expense, including any self-employment taxes payable by Participant, or the amount of any payroll, medicare or FICA taxes or other deductions or payments required to be made to any federal, state or local government, in connection with Fantex participating in a Brand Investment Opportunity via an Indirect Fantex Co-Investment (collectively, a “Transaction Liability”), regardless of its structure or the events or circumstances leading thereto, in excess of the Transaction Liabilities that Participant would have had, incurred or suffered had Fantex not participated in such Brand Investment Opportunity (such excess, the “Incremental Cost”).  Furthermore, if any Indirect Fantex Co-Investment results in Participant incurring any Incremental Cost, then, within five (5) business days after delivery by Participant to Fantex of reasonably satisfactory supporting documentation, Fantex shall pay Participant an amount equal to such Incremental Cost.




			
	
			
				 8.4.2.
			In the event that Fantex elects to participate in a Brand Investment Opportunity other than via a Direct Fantex Co-Investment, then (without limiting the effect of Section 8.4.1 





		 


		

			10

		


		

			 

		





 



		

			 

		




	with respect to Incremental Costs), the Parties shall in good faith use best efforts to structure such transaction in a manner that is efficient to both Parties from an overall tax and expense perspective.




			
	
			
				 9.
			

			
	
			
			Participant Owned Businesses.   In the event that Participant intends to invest in (alone or with others) or establish a business that would qualify as a Participant Owned Business after the closing of such investment, prior to the end of the calendar year in which Participant turns 55, then the following shall apply:




			
	
			
				 9.1.
			Notice and Response.    




			
	
			
				 9.1.1.
			Participant shall provide reasonable advance written notice (an “Owned Business Notice”) to Fantex prior to commencing or investing in any business that would meet the definition of a Participant Owned Business, including all details reasonably requested by Fantex in writing, which are necessary for Fantex to evaluate such Participant Owned Business.    




			
	
			
				 9.1.2.
			Fantex will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to each Owned Business Notice within five (5) business days (but no later than ten (10) business days), indicating whether or not Fantex elects to participate in the applicable potential Participant Owned Business by being issued and holding an equity interest in the Participant Owned Business in an amount calculated by multiplying the Brand Percentage by the shares, membership interests, units (or other reasonable means of measurement) of such Participant Owned Business to be held by Participant.  




			
	
			
				 9.1.3.
			If Fantex fails to timely respond to any Owned Business Notice, then Fantex shall be deemed to have expressly rejected participating in the Participant Owned Business.  




			
	
			
				 9.1.4.
			If the details of any Participant Owned Business change from what were previously presented to Fantex in any Owned Business Notice, then Participant shall provide a new Owned Business Notice to Fantex with the updated terms and conditions, and this Section 9.1 shall apply to such new Owned Business Notice. 




			
	
			
				 9.2.
			Fantex Participation; Reimbursement of Costs. 




			
	
			
				 9.2.1.
			If Fantex elects to participate in any Participant Owned Business, then (subject to Section 9.2.5) Fantex shall contribute to the applicable Participant Owned Business an amount of investment capital equal to the product of the Brand Percentage multiplied by the amount of the capital investment to be made by Participant in accordance with the terms contained in the Owned Business Notice (or otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties).  Notwithstanding Fantex’s election to participate in a Participant Owned Business, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by Participant and Fantex, Fantex shall have the same rights or entitlements (on a pro rata basis) with respect to its investment in such Participant Owned Business pari passu with the rights or entitlements of Participant and other rights provided by statute or the charter or other governing documents of such Participant Owned Business.




			
	
			
				 9.2.2.
			Fantex shall pay such amounts due under this Section 9.2 within five (5) business days after receipt of notice from Participant detailing such amounts, and provided that Fantex has received delivery of the applicable stock certificates or other documentation evidencing such participation by Fantex prior to, concurrent with or within a commercially reasonable time after such payment being due.  




			
	
			
				 9.2.3.
			In addition, to the extent that Participant incurs any additional necessary and reasonable cost or expense resulting from Fantex participating in such Participant Owned Business, then Fantex shall pay, or reimburse Participant for, such incremental costs incurred by Participant (i.e., over and above such amounts that Participant would have incurred but for Fantex’s participation) within fifteen (15) days after Fantex receives an invoice from Participant for such amount.





		 


		

			11

		


		

			 

		





 



		

			 

		





			
	
			
				 9.2.4.
			If Participant is required to execute any documentation (including subscription agreements, warrants and option agreements) in connection with any Participant Owned Business, then Fantex shall execute substantially similar documentation, as applicable, in connection with its participation.




			
	
			
				 9.2.5.
			If Fantex elects to participate in any Participant Owned Business pursuant to this Subsection 9, but such direct participation by Fantex is not possible for any reason, then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to devise and implement commercially reasonable means (without causing any undue burden to Participant) for Fantex to indirectly participate and receive the same practical benefit of a direct participation in such investment.




			
	
			
				 10.
			

			
	
			
			Merchandise Income.  In the event that Participant receives Merchandise Income, then the Brand Income applicable to Participant’s receipt of the associated Merchandise shall be equal to the fair market value of such Merchandise determined as follows: (a) if there is a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (“MSRP”) for such Merchandise, then the value of such Merchandise shall be such MSRP; (b) if there is no MSRP and the value of such Merchandise Income is stated in the related Brand Income Contract, then such stated value shall govern unless Fantex objects thereto in writing  within ten  (10) days after Fantex’s receipt of the related Brand Income Contract; (c) if there is no MSRP and the value of such Merchandise Income is not stated in the related Brand Income Contract or the value is stated but does not approximate fair market value and Fantex objected thereto in accordance with clause (b) of this Section 10, then the Parties shall seek to reach mutual agreement of such value within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof by Participant; and (d) if the Parties fail to reach such agreement within such period of time, then the Parties shall engage an independent third-party appraiser (if the Parties fail to mutually agree on an appraiser within five (5) business days, then either Party may petition JAMS to promptly appoint such an appraiser), and the Parties shall be bound by the determination of any such appraiser, which shall be delivered in writing within fifteen (15) days after the appraiser’s selection or appointment.  The cost and expenses associated with such an appraiser (and any petition to JAMS) shall be shared by the Parties in proportion to their respective interest in such Brand Income (i.e., Fantex shall pay a portion of such costs and expenses equal to the Brand Percentage).




			
	
			
				 11.
			

			
	
			
			Claw Back.




			
	
			
				 11.1.
			Claw Back.  If Talent ceases to actively pursue a career as a Professional Athlete on a Tour at any time prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing for any reason other than Good Reason, Fantex may elect, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Participant (the date of such notice is hereinafter referred to as the “Termination Date”).  In the event of such termination, Participant shall pay to Fantex, not later than thirty (30) days following the Termination Date, an amount equal to (a) the Purchase Price plus an amount equal to the Gross Proceeds, minus (b) all Brand Amounts previously paid to Fantex, including the Pre-Closing Brand Amount.  In addition, Participant shall concurrently pay to Fantex interest on the Purchase Price at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum, measured from the date the Purchase Price was paid to Participant.    




			
	
			
				 11.2.
			Dispute Resolution.  In the event of any dispute between Fantex and Participant concerning whether there is Good Reason for any retirement or resignation by Talent as a Professional Athlete, then the Parties shall engage in informal, good faith discussions and attempt to resolve such dispute.  If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, then existence of Good Reason shall be determined by a qualified medical doctor selected by agreement of the Parties or, if no agreement can be reached, then each Party shall select a medical doctor qualified in the field applicable to the claimed Good Reason, and those two medical doctors shall select a third medical doctor qualified in such field to make the final determination regarding such claimed Good Reason.

				 12.1.
			In addition to (i.e., exclusive of) the Brand Percentage, Participant shall ensure that the aggregate amount of all other encumbrances on any Brand Income in connection with the payment of agents, financial advisors and any other fee arrangements based on a percentage of Participant’s income (or any portion thereof) shall not exceed a maximum of (a) fifteen percent (15%) of all Brand Income resulting from any employment or player contracts in any given year, and (b) thirty percent (30%) of all other Brand Income in any given year. 




			
	
			
				 12.2.
			Without Fantex’s prior written approval, Participant shall not enter into any other arrangement similar to this Agreement (i.e., pursuant to which Participant receives compensation in exchange for a portion of Participant’s future Brand Income) with respect to any portion of the Brand Income.

 Exhibit B
		

		
			 
		

		
			Exclusions From and Examples of Brand Income
		

		
			The contents of this Exhibit B are incorporated by reference into and made a part of that certain Brand Agreement between Fantex and Participant to which it is attached (the “Agreement”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Exhibit B shall have their respective meanings contained in the Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The following sources of revenue shall not be included in Brand Income:
		

		
			 
		

		
			a.Any revenues, investment returns or other amounts received by Participant resulting from Participant’s Passive Investments.
		

		
			b.Any income earned from employment, services rendered or other activities not in the Field. 
		

		
			c.If paid by a third party on Participant’s behalf, the value of any reasonable reimbursement of incidental expenses actually incurred by Participant, including travel, lodging, per diem and other incidental expenses.
		

		
			d.Any Excluded Income.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Examples of income that would be Brand Income or businesses that would be Participant Owned Businesses include the following: 
		

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent receives an equity stake in ABC Energy Products, Inc. as part of an endorsement deal for ABC Energy Products’ vitamin water beverage.  The equity received by Talent would be considered Equity Income under Section 7 of the Agreement because it was consideration for Talent’s endorsement services and publicity rights.




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent starts Talent Enterprises, Inc. to provide entertainment, products and services to urban communities. Commercial ventures pursued by Talent Enterprises, Inc. may be a Participant Owned Business that Fantex would have the opportunity to participate in subject to Section 9 of the Agreement. For example, any golf camps owned by Talent Enterprises, Inc. would be deemed Participant Owned Business because they are in the Field, and operating golf camps is an activity typically undertaken by a professional golfer.  However, a 24-Hour Fitness club owned by Talent Enterprises, Inc. (but not bearing or branded with the Talent’s name) would not be considered a Participant Owned Business because Talent’s name and likeness are not used to promote the clubs.  Similarly, businesses owned by Talent such as movie theaters, restaurants and coffee shops that do not bear or are not branded with Talent’s persona would not be considered Participant Owned Businesses (and thus not result in Brand Income), because those types of businesses neither relate to the Principal Business nor utilize Talent’s name in connection with its marketing, advertising or promotion.




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent plays any role on an episode of a television program.  Compensation paid to Talent for his performance in such episode would be considered Brand Income.




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent becomes the host of a daytime talk show.  Compensation paid to Talent for his services as a talk show host would be considered Brand Income.




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent receives a car lease worth $12,000 (i.e., value of monthly lease of $1,000) in exchange for endorsement services for a local car dealership, a $25,000 clothing allowance from an apparel 





		 


		

			Exhibit B – Exclusions From and Examples of Brand Income – Page 1

		





 



		

			 

		




	company in exchange for endorsement services, and $3,000 worth of products and service plans from a wireless phone carrier (i.e., a total of $40,000 of Merchandise Income) in exchange for endorsement services.  All of such Merchandise Income would be included in Brand Income.  However, solely for purposes of calculating the Brand Amount, Participant would be entitled to deduct from its Brand Income for such year all of such Merchandise Income under its Merchandise Income Deduction (assuming that such amount is less than 4% of all Brand Income earned by Participant during that year).  If, in addition to the foregoing Merchandise Income, Participant also received computer equipment in exchange for endorsement services from a retailer with a fair market value of $5,000, then such $5,000 of Merchandise Income would not be deductible from Brand Income for such year because it exceeds the amount of the allowable Merchandise Income Deduction. 




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent receives a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray as the winner of the Masters.  The MSRP of the Corvette would be considered Brand Income (and not a Gift) because it was earned by Talent for his performance as a Professional Athlete (i.e., within the Field).  However, solely for purposes of calculating the Brand Amount, up to $40,000 (or 4% of all Brand Income, if less than $40,000) of such value would be deductible from Brand Income for such calendar year under the Merchandise Income Deduction (and assuming there were no other Merchandise Income Deductions) for such year. 




		
			 
		

		
			Examples of types of income that would not be Brand Income include the following:
		

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent receives an equity stake in Fantex Holdings, Inc., the parent company of Fantex, because he serves on the board of directors.  Talent’s equity stake in Fantex Holdings, Inc. would not be considered Brand Income because his service as a director of Fantex Holdings is not in the Field. 




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent serves as the governor of California. His income from the state of California would not be considered Brand Income because it is not in the Field.




		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			Talent becomes employed as an elementary school teacher and in various positions at the U.S. Treasury and Justice Departments. Talent’s employment as a teacher and various positions at the U.S. Treasury and Justice Departments would not be considered Brand Income because such employment was based on Talent’s educational background, training and professional skills unrelated to golf, and Talent’s salary did not exceed the ordinary amount paid to employees in such position with a similar educational background, training and professional skills and is not in the Field.

To the extent that direct payment from the source of the Brand Income is not commercially practical, without unreasonable burden on Participant, or any assignment of Brand Income is deemed invalid or not enforceable, then Participant shall comply with paragraph (ii) below and use commercially reasonable efforts to set up automated payments of installments of the Brand Amount through Participant’s banking relationships.

				 4.2.
			Additional Provisions.









			
	
			
				 (i)
			In the event that Participant is prohibited from making payment of any installment of the Brand Amount at the time when same is due and payable to Fantex hereunder by reason of any applicable laws, including currency regulations, Participant shall promptly so advise Fantex and Participant shall, upon Fantex’s request, deposit any such blocked funds to the credit of Fantex in a bank or banks or other depository institution as permitted by law and designated in writing by Fantex, or pay them promptly to such Persons as Fantex may designate in writing consistent with applicable law.

Such audit shall be at Fantex’s sole cost and expense and shall not cover any period greater than the current year and previous three (3) calendar years at the time of such audit, provided that if an audit reveals an underpayment of the Brand Amount by greater than five percent (5%) for the period being audited, then Participant shall reimburse Fantex for its reasonable and documented audit costs.  In any case, either (a) Participant shall promptly pay to Fantex any underpaid amount, together with any interest thereon as provided in Section 4.2(ii) of these Terms and Conditions or (b) Fantex shall promptly pay to Participant any overpaid amount together with interest at the same rate provided in Section 4.2(ii) of these Terms and Conditions; provided, that at Participant’s election, Participant may set off against the immediately following installment payment of the Brand Amount an amount equal to such overpayment.  Fantex shall not audit Participant’s books and records more frequently than once per year during the Audit Period.  Fantex shall provide Participant with reasonable advance written notice that it will be conducting an audit, and any such audit shall be conducted during the normal business hours of Participant’s representatives and with limited interruption to such representatives business.

Participant shall promptly replenish the Escrow Account by depositing in the Escrow Account an amount equal to any Escrow Funds that are released to Fantex pursuant to this Section 5.2 of these Terms and Conditions. 




			
	
			
				 5.3.
			Release of Escrow Amount.  Within five (5) business days immediately following the first consecutive six (6) month period after the Closing during which all installment payments of the Brand Amount have been timely delivered to Fantex when due (subject to applicable notice and cure periods contained herein), then the Escrow Agent shall deliver to Participant all amounts then remaining in the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agreement shall be terminated, and Participant shall thereafter have no obligation to maintain any amounts in the Escrow Account.




			
	
			
				 5.4.
			Ownership of Escrow Holdback.  The Parties agree to treat the Escrow Holdback as owned by Fantex until released to Participant pursuant to terms hereof; provided, that any interest accrued on the Escrow Holdback shall be the property of Participant.

				 6.1.
			Quarterly Reports.  Within ten (10) business days after the end of each calendar quarter during the Term, Participant shall provide to Fantex a report in the form mutually agreed by the Parties (each a “Quarterly Report”), which shall detail all Brand Income earned during such quarter, detail the calculation of the Brand Amount for such quarter with respect to such Brand Income, and provide such additional information and certifications required to be included in the Quarterly Report, including such matters as specified in Exhibit E. 




			
	
			
				 6.2.
			Material Change.  Participant shall promptly provide written notice to Fantex if at any time after the Effective Date and during the Term of this Agreement, there occurs any condition, restriction, disability or obligation (whether physical, legal or contractual) that will or could reasonably be expected to (i) prevent, or materially interfere with Participant’s (or any of

			Fantex Brand Agreement

		


		

			Standard Terms & Conditions

		




	Participant’s Brand Affiliates), compliance with any Brand Income Contract and/or participation in the Principal Business as a Professional Athlete, or (ii) result in any of the representations or warranties made by the Participant on Exhibit A to be untrue in any material respect; provided, that Participant shall not have any obligation to notify Fantex of the contents of any Brand Income Contract provided by Participant to Fantex, including the expiration of any contract pursuant to its terms. 




			
	
			
				 6.3.
			Brand Income Contracts.  Throughout the Term, Participant shall promptly (and in any case, no later than five (5) business days after the occurrence of the applicable event, and prior to any public announcement thereof) notify Fantex, in writing, and provide copies of all relevant documents and correspondence related to each such occurrence (including copies of all Brand Income Contracts), in the event that:




			
	
			
				 (i)
			Participant enters into any Brand Income Contract, including any amendments, modifications or supplements to an existing Brand Income Contract, after the Effective Date (“New Brand Income Contract”);  




			
	
			
				 (ii)
			Participant receives any notice of termination, cancellation, breach or default under any Brand Income Contract; 




			
	
			
				 (iii)
			Participant becomes aware of any event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would result in any material default, breach or event of noncompliance by Participant under any Brand Income Contract; 




			
	
			
				 (iv)
			Participant becomes aware that any other party to any Brand Income Contract is in material breach thereof; or 




			
	
			
				 (v)
			there are any renegotiations of or outstanding rights to renegotiate any material amounts paid or payable to Participant under any of the Brand Income Contracts with any Person, or Participant receives any demand for such renegotiation. 




			
	
			
				 6.4.
			New Brand Income Contracts.  Upon the execution of a New Brand Income Contract, Participant shall be deemed to represent and warrant that such New Brand Income Contract is valid, binding and enforceable against Participant, and enforceable by Participant against the other parties thereto, in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to the effect of general principles of equity, as may apply.




			
	
			
				 6.5.
			Disclosure of Brand Income Contracts.    









			
	
			
				 (i)
			Participant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each counterparty to a Brand Income Contract containing a legal, valid and binding confidentiality obligation of Participant (each, a “Confidential Brand Income Contract”), to consent to Fantex’s disclosure of the terms and conditions of such Confidential Brand Income Contract to the extent required by any governmental or quasi-governmental bodies or agencies, or self-regulatory organizations, including the SEC and FINRA (“Regulatory Disclosure”); provided, that Fantex shall not make any disclosure of any terms or conditions of any Confidential Brand Income Contract if such counterparty fails to so consent; provided further, that failure to obtain a counterparty’s consent with respect to a Confidential Brand Income Contract shall not in itself be a breach of this Agreement by Participant so long as Participant has complied with the terms of this paragraph; and    




			
	
			
				 (ii)
			In the event Fantex determines it must make a Regulatory Disclosure of a Confidential Brand Income Contract and counterparty consent could not be obtained as described in paragraph 6.4(i) then the parties agree to work in good faith to restructure the Brand Amount payments due to Fantex pursuant to such Confidential Brand Income Contract such that in Fantex’s determination such Confidential Brand Income Contract would no longer require Regulatory Disclosure. The restructuring of any Brand Amount payments will result in Participant paying either (x) less to Fantex and/or (y) making such payments later to Fantex than would be required pursuant to this Agreement.     




			
	
			
				 6.6.
			Brand Income Statements.  Concurrent with delivery of each Quarterly Report (as required by Section 6.1 of these Terms and Conditions), Participant shall also provide copies of all receipts, invoices, pay stubs, or other documents evidencing all Brand Income referenced in the applicable Quarterly Report.




			
	
			
				 6.7.
			Marital Status.  Participant shall, if applicable, use reasonable efforts to secure the signature of Participant’s spouse in substantially the form of spousal consent attached hereto as Exhibit F.  In the event that Participant fails to secure such signature, and as a result a portion of the Brand Income of Participant is deemed “community property,” or Participant’s spouse can otherwise claim legal ownership to any Brand Income, then Participant shall nonetheless be required to calculate and deliver any installment payments of the Brand Amount based on the entirety of the Brand Income (including any such portion thereof that is deemed to be such spouse’s share of community property or otherwise property of such spouse).

			Related to Purchase Price.  Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes on the Purchase Price. Fantex shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any amounts required by applicable law to be deducted and withheld from the Purchase Price and such withheld amounts shall be treated as paid to Participant.  Fantex shall not be required to indemnify or “gross up” Participant for any such amounts withheld.

To the extent that any such installment payment of the Brand Amount is made directly from the payor to Fantex and a withholding obligation is imposed on Participant and Participant has no ability to withhold or cause the payor to withhold from such Brand Amounts the required amounts, then Fantex shall make a payment to Participant (for remittance to the applicable taxing authority), within five (5) business days after receipt of such installment payment, equal to the amount that Participant would have been entitled to deduct and withhold hereunder had such installment payment been made by the payor to Participant and subsequently remitted by Participant to Fantex.  Any such withheld amounts, or amounts paid by Fantex to Participant for remittance to the applicable taxing authorities, shall be treated as having been paid to Fantex.  Participant shall not be required to indemnify or “gross up” Fantex for any such amounts withheld.  Fantex will indemnify Participant for and hold it harmless from and against any taxes of Fantex which may be sought against, imposed upon or suffered by Participant or which Participant may incur as a result of Participant’s failure to deduct and withhold such taxes from any installment payment of the Brand Amount to be delivered under this Agreement.

			Fantex Brand Agreement

		


		

			Standard Terms & Conditions

		




	Affiliates, heirs, assigns, successors, and each of their respective officers, directors, members, managers, agents, representatives and employees, as applicable, (collectively, “Participant Indemnified Party(ies)”), from and against any and all Claims by any third party (including any and all Claims brought by any holder of the Series or group of class thereof) arising out of or relating to Participant being a party to this Agreement (except those arising out of or relating to any breach by Participant, directly or indirectly through any Brand Affiliate or Person, of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement), including any and all Claims arising out of or relating to (a) any breach by Fantex, directly or indirectly through any of its Affiliates or any Person, of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, (b) any violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations (whether state or Federal) by Fantex, including any securities laws or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, or (c) the Offering, the Series, or the Registration Statement.    




			
	
			
				 14.3.
			A Fantex Indemnified Party or Participant Indemnified Party, as applicable (the “Indemnified Party”), shall promptly deliver a written notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”), providing notice (a “Claim Notice”) of any Claim asserted or filed by a third party (a “Third-Party Action”) within twenty (20) days (or such shorter period as reasonably necessary to permit timely response to such Claim) after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third-Party Action.  Delay or failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 14.3 will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s delay or failure to give such Claim Notice.  Such Claim Notice shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third-Party Action and the amount of the claimed damages. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of such Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Action with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party, subject to the Indemnified Party’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of the defense of a Third-Party Action, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control such defense at its own expense. The non-controlling party may participate in such defense at its own expense. In Third-Party Actions in which the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third-








	Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that such consent shall not be required if such settlement or judgment (i) fully releases both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and (ii) involves only the payment of money damages that are covered in full by the indemnity obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.  In Third-Party Actions in which the Indemnified Party is controlling the defense, the Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

			Standard Terms & Conditions

		




	communications or commitments between the Parties, whether oral or written, concerning the same subject matter.  This Agreement cannot be amended or modified or any provisions or obligations waived or changed except by a writing executed by Fantex and Participant. 




			
	
			
				 17.2.
			Waiver.  The failure or delay of a Party to insist on strict adherence to any term of this Agreement will not be considered a waiver of, or deprive that Party of the right thereafter to insist on strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.  No waiver of any breach or default of the other Party shall be construed as a continuing waiver of the same or any other breach or default under this Agreement.




			
	
			
				 17.3.
			Further Actions; Attorney-in-Fact.  Participant will, as applicable, at the request of Fantex, execute and deliver to Fantex all such documents as Fantex may from time to time deem reasonably necessary or desirable to effectuate assignment of, and for Fantex to receive all installment payments of, the Brand Amount and otherwise effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.  If Participant fails or refuses to execute or deliver to Fantex any such document within a reasonable period of time following receipt of Fantex’s written request therefor, then Participant irrevocably appoints Fantex as Participant’s agent and attorney-in-fact to sign any such documents in Participant’s name and to make appropriate disposition of them, consistent with this Agreement; provided, that prior to exercising any rights under such power of attorney, Fantex shall notify Participant of its intention to do so.  Participant acknowledges that Fantex’s agency and power of attorney are coupled with an interest. 




			
	
			
				 17.4.
			Interpretation.  In the interpretation and construction of this Agreement, no term shall be construed against any Party on the basis that the Party was the drafter, and the Parties waive any common law or statutory provision that would construe an ambiguous term against the other Party as the drafter of this Agreement.  Words importing the singular include the plural and vice versa, as the context requires.  Whenever any of the words “include,” “includes” or “including” or the abbreviation “e.g.” is used in this Agreement (including any exhibits hereto), such shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  Any reference to “this Agreement,” even if such reference is contained in these Terms and Conditions, shall be a reference to the Agreement and all of the exhibits and schedules attached thereto.  The term “or” is not exclusive.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as 








	to the feminine and neuter genders of such terms.  The captions and headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of the Parties only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and will not be deemed to govern, limit, modify or in any other manner affect the scope, meaning, intent or interpretation of the provisions hereof or have any legal effect.  Any obligations or rights of any of the Parties contained in Section 1 of the Agreement shall be valid and binding on the Parties as if it were contained in any other section of this Agreement.




			
	
			
				 17.5.
			Governing Law; Arbitration.  The law of California (exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules) shall govern, construe and enforce all of the rights and duties of the Parties arising or in any way relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.  In the event of any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any claim based on contract, tort or statute) or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, (a “Dispute”), then the Parties shall engage in informal, good faith discussions and attempt to resolve the Dispute.  If the Parties are unable to resolve the Dispute, then the Dispute shall be determined by confidential binding arbitration in San Francisco before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures.  Judgment on any award pursuant to arbitration may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall be a retired judge with at least five years of experience presiding over disputes related to complex commercial transactions.  The arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the Parties or, if no agreement can be reached, then each Party shall appoint one JAMS arbitrator for the purpose of selecting the arbitrator to govern the Dispute, and those two arbitrators shall select the arbitrator to govern the Dispute.  In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator shall award to the prevailing Party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing Party in connection with the arbitration.  If the arbitrator determines a Party to be the prevailing Party under circumstances where the prevailing Party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the arbitrator may award the prevailing Party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing Party in connection with the arbitration.  Without limiting the effect of Section 4.2(iii) of these Terms and Conditions, the Parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the award, except as may be necessary in connection with a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.  Notwithstanding anything herein

			Fantex Brand Agreement

		


		

			Standard Terms & Conditions

		




	to the contrary, either Party shall be entitled to seek to obtain any provisional remedy, including injunctive or similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect that Party’s rights and interests.    




			
	
			
				 17.6.
			Severability.  Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement (or portion thereof) will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement (or portion thereof) is held to be null, void, invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, then (a) such provision (or portion thereof) shall be deemed to be restated, to the extent possible, to reflect as nearly as possible the original intentions of the Parties in accordance with applicable law, and if such restatement is not possible, then such provision (or portion thereof) shall be severed, and (b) the remaining provisions, terms or covenants and restrictions in this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. 




			
	
			
				 17.7.
			No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to nor shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the Parties, any interests, rights, remedies or other benefits with respect to or in connection with any agreement or provision contained herein or contemplated hereby. 




			
	
			
				 17.8.

				 (ii)
			Participant and Fantex each acknowledges and agrees that: (a) this Agreement, and the exercise of rights and performance of obligations hereunder, does not create any agency, advisory or fiduciary relationship between Participant and Fantex and its Affiliates; (b) Fantex is not, and at any time during the Term will not be, an agent, representative or advisor to Participant; and (c) Participant has relied on its own personal counsel and advisors with respect to legal, tax, accounting and other issues in connection with entering into and performing under this Agreement.  




			
	
			
				 17.9.
			Limitation on Liabilities.  In no event shall either Party or any of their representatives be liable under this Agreement to the other Party for any consequential, incidental, indirect, exemplary, special or punitive damages, including damages for business interruption, loss of use, revenue or profit, whether arising out of breach 








	of contract, tort (including negligence and intentional torts), statute or otherwise, regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable and whether or not such Party was advised of the possibility of such damages.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any Brand Income Contract is suspended or terminated or the amount of Brand Income committed to be paid to Participant is reduced as a result of any action or omission by Participant that constitutes a breach of this Agreement, then (without limiting the effect of Section 17.10) the Brand Amount that would have been attributed to such lost or reduced Brand Income shall be considered direct damages of Fantex resulting from such breach and shall not be excluded or waived by Fantex as a result of this Section 17.9.




			
	
			
				 17.10.
			Cumulative Remedies.  None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred upon any Party under this Agreement will be mutually exclusive.  Each such right, power or remedy will be cumulative and in addition to every other right, power or remedy available to such Party, whether available at law, in equity or otherwise.  




			
	
			
				 17.11.
			Charitable Endeavors; Non-Circumvention. It is not Fantex’s intention to deter Talent from performing charitable acts, whether for the benefit of any charitable foundation Controlled by him (a “Foundation”) or otherwise.  However, Participant covenants and agrees that he shall not perform services for a Foundation, or for third parties in exchange for donations or other payments to a Foundation or any other charitable organization, if Participant’s intention in connection therewith is to circumvent the intents and purposes of the Agreement.




			
	
			
				 17.12.
			Force Majeure; Labor Stoppages and Lockouts.  




			
	
			
				 (i)
			No Party shall be liable or responsible to the other Party, nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement, when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond the affected party's reasonable control, including, without limitation (each, a “Force Majeure Event”): (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, earthquake or explosion; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (d) government order or law; (e) actions, embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; (f) action by any governmental authority; (g) national or regional emergency; (h) strikes, lockouts, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances; and (i) shortage of adequate power or transportation facilities.

				 17.14.
			Injunctive Relief.  The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of the Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the Parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief or specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.




			
	
			
				 17.15.
			Counterparts; Binding Agreement.
