Community Relations/Sponsor Appearances and Promotional Activities by Player Under Rookie Contract


At Club’s request, Player will make up to, but no more than, five community relations/sponsor appearances or promotional activities (collectively, "Player Appearances") per year on the Club’s behalf, as determined by Club. At Club’s sole discretion, Club may provide Player with cash compensation at prevailing commercial rates not to exceed $6,500 per appearance for the 2020-25 League Years, and not to exceed $9,000 per appearance for the 2026-30 League Years. In addition, whether or not Club elects to provide player with cash compensation for any individual Player Appearance, to the extent that Player incurs out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., parking fees, etc.) in connection with such appearance, Club may provide Player with cash reimbursement for such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses upon Player’s submission of a written expense report satisfactory to Club and applicable receipts. Club may also provide Player with cash reimbursement for actual mileage incurred, as approved by Club, at the standard mileage rate in effect for the applicable period as published by the Internal Revenue Service.
