The contract spans twelve months. Dr. Pop promises to pay $15,000 at the end of each month beginning in March.
At the end of the contract, Do It Right either will give Dr. Love a refund of $25,000 or will be entitled to an additional $25,000 bonus, depending on whether services at Dr. Loves practice at year-end have increased to a target level.
