117 <h2>1. Introduction</h2>
118 <p>Hartley Kemp of <a href="http://www.cvenues.com/cvenues/">C
119 Arts</a> has offered to hire the Meeting House at 7 Victoria Terrace,

188 </div>
189 <div>
190 <h2>5. Oversight</h2>
191 <p>Given CA's stated aims, we do not anticipate any issues about the

201 </div>
202 <div>
203 <h2>7. Profit-sharing</h2>
204 <p>We are bearing some of the risk, we would like some of the profits, if
205 any. We'd like to have a small share of CA's gross income. As CA typically
206 operate on a guarantee + split basis with their shows, exactly how to formulate
207 this will depend on the details of this year's agreements between CA and the shows </p>
208 <p>Basically we're looking for something in the
209 neighbourhood of &#xa3;2,000 if CA
210 hit the &#xa3;20,000 'profit' they are aiming for.</p>
