Disposition Fee (3%) is taken above the waterfall
MediumA performance- or transaction-linked fee paid above the waterfall reaches the GP before the LP's distribution priorities run, eroding the pool the pref + return-of-capital draw from. Routine asset-management fees above the line are normal; a disposition/promote-flavored fee there is a leak worth pricing.
“The Corporation may pay the Advisor a disposition fee upon the Sale of one or more Assets, in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) one-half of a Competitive Commission, or (b) 3% of the sales price of such Asset or Assets. In addition, the amount paid when added to the sums paid to unaffiliated parties in such a capacity shall not exceed the lesser of the Competitive Commission or an amount equal to 6% of the sales price of such Asset or Assets.”
