Disagree with your disagree; 'предусматривали выполнение платежей' and 'выплачивались' both refer to contract obligations and offer no confirmation as to their execution (which may never have actually happened).

10% advance / upfront payment
Google determines that Avdance is more common but from my personal experience I would say that the frequince of Advanct to Upfront is 50 / 50. For example I've never seen an 'advance commission' instead of 'upfront commission'.

It is also possible to put it this way '10% upfront payment thereof'.
'Thereof' referring to the 45% above.
