Software Update fees

– Down the road when you purchase new updates for your game this will give you the

opportunity to split the cost of your new updates with your location. It is handled much like the Hardware Update
fee, described below.

Hardware Update fee

– This Hardware Update fee is for you and you alone. You will NEVER BE BILLED for this

fee. Operators have been asking for a place where they could recoup extra costs (should they so desire) from
their locations. The default weekly fee is $0.00 per week as soon as you turn the SSBC game on. Many
operators use this feature for other purposes. It can be used in certain locations where a weekly minimum is
required. It can also be used for a weekly contest participation fee. The dollar amount of this fee can be changed
to whatever dollar amount you want. The percentage split may also be adjusted.

ACCOUNTING FOR FEES

All of the fees above are factory set to split 50/50. The collection will take the different revenue types and
calculate the different percentage splits, then take the different fees and calculate their split percentages. The
fees will be deducted from the revenue and a dollar value is given to you and to your location. These values are
shown on the collection screens in System Setup mode.

COLLECTIONS

SSBC Collection Screen

– The first thing you will see is the collection from and to dates. Just below that you will

either see “Estimated Collection” or “Actual Collection.” If you see “Estimated Collection” there was a problem
getting a connection to our servers. We strongly suggest you back out without collecting and then go right back in
to try to connect again. Nine times out of ten you should get an actual reading.

In the gray boxes, you will see the line item “days of operation.” This is the number of days since your last
collection screen was cleared. You will see the total income, total fees, balance, operator portion of balance and
operator owes location numbers. Since cash is no longer your only source of revenue, it is very important to view
the details of the total income. To get these numbers, simply move the trackball up to the “More Details” box
located directly to the right of the total income dollar value. Click your start button and you will be into the revenue
breakdown page.

This screen shows a line item for each type of revenue source. This is where you can compare your cash on
screen to your cash in hand. You can then go back to the main collection screen and do the same for your total
fees. When you are done viewing all your numbers, click on the “Do Collection and Exit” button. The game will
then send the collection data to your secure operator services web page for viewing at your office.

The next page is a sample SSBC collection sheet, showing the different revenue and income. This also shows
the default percentages of the various split settings. You may want to take this form with you to your collections
until you are comfortable with the system.
