| MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT | MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT On February 4, 2021, the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement with the Contributors and Corridor, the Company's former external manager. Consummation of the transaction contemplated in the Contribution Agreement resulted in the Internalization of Corridor, which was approved by stockholders on June 29, 2021.
On June 29, 2021, the CorEnergy stockholders approved the Internalization. The Internalization transaction was completed on July 6, 2021. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Company issued to the Contributors, based on each Contributor's percentage ownership in Corridor, the Internalization Consideration.
As a result of the Internalization transaction, the Company now (i) owns all material assets of Corridor used in the conduct of the business, and (ii) is managed by officers and employees who previously worked for Corridor, and have become employees of the Company. Both the Management Agreement and the Administrative Agreement are no longer in effect upon the closing of the Internalization transaction. Additional information on the Internalization Transaction can be found in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 12, 2021.
Contemporaneously with the execution of the Contribution Agreement, the Company and Corridor entered into the First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to the Management Agreement that had the effect, beginning February 1, 2021, of (i) eliminating the management fee, (ii) providing a one-time, $1.0 million advance to Corridor to fund bonus payments to its employees in connection with the Internalization and (iii) providing payments to Corridor for actual employee compensation and office related expenses. Further, the First Amendment provided that, beginning April 1, 2021, the Company paid Corridor additional cash fees equivalent to the aggregate amount of all distributions that would accrue, if declared, on and after such date with respect to the securities to be issued as the Internalization Consideration pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (an amount, assuming payment on a cash basis equal to approximately $172 thousand per quarter). This agreement was in effect until the closing of the Internalization on July 6, 2021. The Company paid $53 thousand for declared dividends under this agreement.
