Pursuant to the Amendment, the Purchaser has agreed to pay the Sellers an additional $115,000 and administer the run-off of all of Sellers’ workers compensation policies and claims in perpetuity or through final conclusion (rather than for three years as contemplated by the Sale Agreement) in consideration of Sellers assigning to Purchaser the commission on all unearned premiums on such policies as of July 1, 2015.
