Year	Service Provider Annual Fee
1	2%
2	1.6807%
3	1.375%
4	1.0610%
5+	0.7491%

All fees are payable on a quarterly basis to the service provider and will begin to accrue once The LAO launches. Members have the right to terminate the services of the service provider at any time.

Does The LAO charge a carry?

Notably, because The LAO is member managed, it does not have any general partner. No member of The LAO or the service provider will be entitled to a carry, unless otherwise agreed to by the members.
