Hello we are now getting an error

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
The site encountered a problem that it cannot recover from. Please use the following information to try to resolve the problem.

Error Message

Fatal Error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/81/8798681/html/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/download-manager.php on line 12
Description

The Download Manager plugin code created an error that caused PHP execution to fail.

This type error is called a “syntax error.” A syntax error means that the format of the code is invalid. Examples of syntax errors: a missing semicolon after a line of code, having mismatched parentheses, forgetting to put a dollar sign ($) in front of a variable’s name, and forgetting an operator — such as a plus sign (+) — between two variables. There are many other possible causes of syntax errors, the preceding are just a few examples.

Solutions

Invalid code modifications can cause this problem. If you have made any modifications to the plugin, remove them and try to load the site again.
It is possible that this plugin’s code is out of date and that an upgrade is available. Check with the plugin’s author to see if an upgrade is available.
There may be a conflict with another plugin running on the site. Try upgrading the other plugins on the site. A plugin conflict can be ruled out by deactivating all the other active plugins on the site and checking to see if the error still occurs.
The Download Manager plugin may not have been fully uploaded. Uploading the plugin again could fix the issue. Important: If you do this, you will lose any modifications made to the plugin.

Extremely sorry for your inconvenience. In last update we have improved code base and using namespace, which require php v5.3.0+ ( http://php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.rationale.php ), may you please update your server php version, however if that is not possible, you can get back the previous version from here https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/download-manager.2.8.3.zip .
