LBO Mgm't Case vs. Base Case

Hello, quick question for those in PE regarding lbo models. Beliee there are typically 4 cases: 1) Management 2) Upside 3) Base 4) Downside

Just wanted to get some thoughts on what the difference is between Mgm't vs. Base. Would have thought they are identical.

Thank you all!
