§ 1 Scope of Partnership
The Partner supports GCG's business activities with regard to certain projects which are defined
in the Appendix ("Project List") of this Agreement (a project is defined as a combination of a
target company and a fundraising source that finances the investment): e.g. a listed blue chip
company financed by sources to which the Partner has access. Other joint projects may follow,
however, it has to be mutually agreed upon to include them in the Project List and they have to
be confirmed by signing by GCG and the Partner.
To the best of his knowledge, the Partner provides GCG with his expertiseand skills for the
projects included in the Project List, within the limits of his availability.
§ 2 Profit Sharing
GCG usually receives a performance-related compensation (so-called "Closing Fee" and/or
"Management Fee" and "Carried Interest", together "Carry") depending on the profit of the
respective project. The Carry is individually negotiated with each investor who is associated with
the project.
A specific labour time commitment of the Partner is not part of this contract, rather the
availability in case of arising questions, access to contacts or opinion building concerning the
projects, as well as possible own initiatives of the Partner concerning project ideas.
The Partner will participate in the entrepreneurial success of GCG as follows:
With regard to the compensation (Carry) that GCG receives from the projects listed in the
Project List, the Partner receives a co-entrepreneurial share of 5% (fivepercent) of GCG's
income (Carry) before cost in relation to the share of financing of the total project that has been
arranged by the Partner. Among other reasons, the profit participation is at such a high level,
since the Partner is actively involved in the complex, project-specific fundraising process and he
is supposed to support the project entrepreneurially at a later stage (a salary, plane, etc. from the
funded SPV). In addition, the Partner covers all his expenses related to the fundraising activities
in this contract to the full extend by himself.
GCG will try to implement the Partner's entrepreneurial profit participation via a project
company (NewCo) that may be established in consensus with the investors. In this case, the
When established the Partner receives his compensation directly from the NewCo/SPV holding

the target corporation(s) and no longer from GCG. The Partner's claim vis-a-vis GCG is then no
longer valid or reduced proportionally, respectively.
For the avoidance of doubt: The entitlement of the Partner to profit participation as provided for
in this §2 only accrues if, based on the active contact of the Partner, a) there is a written
commitment or financing from the project's investors concerning a target which has been
included in the Project List, b) the (fundraising) projects defined in the Project List are finally
executed, c) and GCG receives Fees, Carry or other income for the project.
§ 3 Confidentiality
The Partner undertakes to maintain strictest confidentiality, also beyond the termination of this
Agreement, concerning all business related or operationally confidential matters that became
known or will become known to him in the context of his work with GCG (of course also vis-a-
vis his former clients in the industry).
Concerning the business and operational documents that have been transferred to the Partner and
regardless of their form or medium (electronic data etc.), the Partner will carefully preserve
them, protect them from access by third parties and fully return them to GCG on its demand
beyond the end of this contract. Electronic data have to be destroyed. The Partner and GCG will
also maintain strictest confidentiality about the completion of this contract.
The Partner assures that the relevant statutory regulations are known to him. The Partner
maintains to keep himself information about the development of these regulations and to seek
advice if in doubt. Insofar as the Partner is obligated under applicable law to make declarations
vis-a-vis authorities in connection with his tasks specified in this contract, he will do this
immediately in response to GCG's request.
