, A player whose contract expires when he has earned three (3) Accrued Seasons. If his old club provides
him with a sufficient "Qualifying Offer", as described in CBA Article 9, on or before the last day of that
League Year, it retains the right to either match an offer the player may get from another club or to
receive draft choice compensation from the club making the offer. The Qualifying Offer is based on the
level of draft choices the old club wants to receive. For example, the Qualifying Offer to a player with
three (3) Accrued Seasons in 2021 for the Club to receive a second-round draft choice and the Right of
First Refusal in 2021 is $3,384,000. For the 2021 League Year, the Restricted Free Agent has until April

Player. The designation must be made within a two-week period beginning on the twenty-second day
preceding the first day of the new League Year and will end at 4:00 p.m. New York time on the eighth
day preceding the first day of the new League Year. The club must tender the Franchise Player an offer
equal to the formula stated in Article 10 of the CBA or 120% of the player's Prior Year Salary, whichever
is greater. If the player's Club extends the nonexclusive tender offer, the Franchise Player can seek offers
from other clubs, but the old team can match the offer or receive two first round draft choices from the
offering team. If the player's club extends the exclusive tender offer, the club retains exclusive rights to

Franchise Player designation. If it does so, it must tender the player an offer equal to the formula stated

obtain an offer from any other team, but his old team can only match or not match the offer and it
cannot collect any draft choice compensation. Once signed by the Player, the tender is fully guaranteed.
