She added, "I want to stay at 5 percent commission but set a floor of $500k a year. Meaning we would not get paid less than the $500k this year 2020 so we would get a retainer payment each month and each quarter settle it up against the commission. Unlike the other professionals management and legal we are still having to do work even though B is not including the court accounting."
Lou added, "Then next year we will look at time and billing again." She ended, "Is this approved?"

The email came months after Britney canceled her second planned Las Vegas residence. At the time, she announced she was going on an "indefinite work hiatus."
According to The New York Times, the Vegas show being scrapped cost Tri Star a substantial amount of money. The firm was to be paid 5 percent of the revenue. Britney said she was involuntarily forced into a mental health facility at the time.

Jamie replied to Lou's email, "Sorry my head trying to get all this going on straight will get back to you."
Lou replied to Jamie the same day. "Yes, I know Robin and I were supposed to go through it with you — know it's bas timing. We just want to create a floor since we can't afford to lose #400k. We are not looking to true up 2019. Just want for Nov and Dec get a retainer payment. Meaning the floor is we won't make less than the $500k a year and if commission is at least that we will true it up."
