Payment for Services.


 


BetterSea
LLC’s fees for services are based primary on the actual time expended performing services multiplied by the hourly rates then
in effect for the person doing the work. Currently, the hourly rates of the principals are: $250 per hour; $175-$200 per hour
for associates; and $100 per hour for, clerks, and other support members. Services requiring specialists will be billed at their
standard hourly rates then in effect. The time for all personnel is charged in increments of .1 hours (6 minutes). Charged time
includes the time personnel of BetterSea spend on telephone calls relating to company’s matters. The personnel assigned to support
the company’s matters may also confer among themselves about such matters, as required and appropriate. When they do confer, each
person will charge for the time expended, as long as the work done is reasonably necessary and not duplicative. Likewise, if more
than one person assigned to the company’s matters attends a meeting or other proceeding, each will charge for the time spent.
Staff will charge for waiting time and for travel time, both local and out-of-town. Please note that BetterSea may assign various
people to company’s matters, as BetterSea deems appropriate.


 


Please
also note that our rates are adjusted periodically, generally on an annual basis, to reflect the advancing experience, capabilities
and seniority of the BetterSea’s professionals as well as general economic factors. It is the policy of BetterSea that we will
perform no further services for the company if it becomes more than sixty days (60) delinquent in the payment of our bills, unless
an arrangement to cure the delinquency is made in writing and agreed to by both parties.

court. Such binding arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California in accordance with California substantive and
procedural law, other than choice-of-law principles, under the auspices of J.A.M.S and before a retired judge or justice. If the
parties are unable to agree upon a retired superior court judge or appellate judge or justice, the matter will be submitted to
J.A.M.S. and the administrator will select three names for submission to the parties. Each party will have a right to strike one
name and the remaining judge listed will be the arbitrator for all purposes. The fees of the arbitrator will be paid initially
equally by Aura and BetterSea. However, the arbitrator shall have the right to order either party to pay all fees and costs as
part of an award. All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential and neither the parties nor the arbitrator(s)
may disclose the content or result of the arbitration, except as necessary to comply with legal or regulatory requirements. The
result of the arbitration shall be binding on the parties and judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. The prevailing party in any arbitration or legal proceeding arising-from or relating to this Agreement or the services
provided hereunder will be entitled to recover as costs the reasonable expenses incurred therewith, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator fees, expert fees, court reporter fees, filing fees, and deposition fees, whether or not
such costs are otherwise recoverable pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure.
