Co-GP structure!

Any one have any insight on co-GP structures? For example, $100M deal with 60% LTV. You go to a PE firm to raise $35M of JV equity and co-GP puts in $5M. How do you structure this amongst the co-GPs? how are fees split? Do you create a hold-co for the co-GPs? how do you structure a win win situation in case one of the co-GPs doesn't execute their responsibility in the business plan? What would the water split look like? thanks in advance!

Thanks! My thought is that you would create a "hold-co" for the GP which will be 10-20% of the equity while the LP will be 80-90%. Question is, how do you determine co-GP equity and fees splits? or even water fall hurdles? i almost think it would be 50/50 unless if someone does something really stupid which i imagine will lead to a law suit amongst co-GPs. I would think LP still has ultimate control due to issues amongst co-GPs. Just want to know what high level splits or pref waters falls would look like in this situation.
