and veterinarians who shall be involved in the
selection and purchasing process of each yearling
as well as providing experienced professional

as Management Agent by vote of a majority in interest
of the Partners. StablesOnline.com Inc., fee for

month. StablesOnline.com Inc., will provide, without

1. Provide, via e-mail, all partners with a password
for access to, and use of "Stable
View".
Stable View is the Partnership's
exclusive interactive web page dedicated to bringing
to each Partner a favorable combination of facts, circumstances,

8. *Maintain licensing and
registration records to ensure racing eligibility.
9. *Provide all partners of

All major business decisions
regarding the horses will be subject to decision
of the partners by vote of a majority in interest.
In the event the Partners do not concur in any
decision of the Management Agent, they may terminate
the Management Agent's contract, provided that
such termination acts to also terminate any future
obligation of the Management Agent to fund operating
deficits during the initial term of the Partnership.
The Management Agent may purchase
units in the Partnership.
The Partnership will retain
the services of an appropriate leading trainer
for horses determined to be best suited for racing
in California, Florida, Kentucky or New York as
well as in those cases where it is determined
to train and/or race a Partnership horse in other
parts of the United States and/or Australia, Dubai, Europe and Japan.
The training rate is estimated
at eighty dollars ($80) per day. This is believed
to conform to the national average and is intended
to assure the finest quality in care. This rate
basically includes the cost of training, boarding
at the track, feed, general care and grooming.
In addition to the trainer's per day rate, the
trainer also receives ten percent (10%) of the
horse's purse earnings, when the horse finishes
first, second or third.
The Management Agent and/or
the trainer will secure the services of a jockey
to ride the Partnership's horse in a race. A jockey
is paid a nominal fee to ride the horse. The fee
depends on the racetrack where the race is held,
the amount of the purse and the finish position
of the horse in the race. Each racetrack is different
with respect to jockey fees and each publishes
its own fee schedule. When a horse wins a race
(first place finish), in lieu of a flat riding
fee, the jockey is generally paid ten percent
(10%) of the horse's gross purse earnings. At
some racetracks, the jockey does, in fact, receive
a percentage of the purse even if the horse does
not finish in first place, the percentage varying
from racetrack to racetrack.
In addition, in most cases,
when a horse wins a race, a "stable bonus"
is given to the horse's groom and/or barn help.
The bonus is not a fixed figure, but generally,
it is one hundred dollars ($100) for winning any
type of race other than a stakes race. If a horse
wins a stakes race, the stable bonus could be
as high as two percent (2%) of the horse's gross
purse earnings for a first place finish, or somewhat
lower for finishes second through fifth place.
To the extent possible, the
Management Agent will endeavor to obtain for each
partner all special privileges afforded to owners
at a particular racetrack upon their request via
e-mail.
