Exhibit 10.18
HOTEL REVENUE SHARING LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS HOTEL REVENUE SHARING LEASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement" or "Hotel
Revenue Sharing Lease Agreement") is dated *3 and entered into by and between
RoomSystem Technologies, Inc., ("RoomSystem") a Nevada corporation having its
principal office and place of business at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000,
Xxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, 00000 and *1 ("Hotel"), a *9 corporation, having its office
and place of business at *2.
IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual agreements set forth hereinafter, the
parties agree as follows:
1. Leased Equipment. This Agreement and each Equipment Schedule (as
defined below) entered into under this Agreement shall describe the equipment
leased under this Agreement and shall be subject to all terms and conditions of
this Agreement as such Agreement may from time-to-time be amended. Each
Equipment Schedule to be entered into between RoomSystem and Hotel pursuant to
this Agreement shall be in the form annexed hereto as Attachment I (the
"Equipment Schedule"). Each Equipment Schedule shall be enforceable according to
the terms and conditions contained therein and such terms and conditions are
incorporated into this Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in
this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in each Equipment
Schedule. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any
Equipment Schedule, the terms of the Equipment Schedule shall prevail with
respect to that Equipment Schedule. RoomSystem agrees to place with Hotel, and
Hotel agrees to accept and lease from RoomSystem, in accordance with the terms
and conditions herein, the equipment and features together with all
replacements, parts, repairs, additions, attachments and accessories related
thereto (collectively called the "Equipment" and individually called a "Placed
Item") described in each executed Equipment Schedule. Hotel shall have no right,
title or interest in the Equipment, except as expressly set forth in this
Agreement. RoomSystem and Hotel shall have no obligation hereunder until the
execution and delivery of an Equipment Schedule by RoomSystem and Hotel.
2. Term Payments and Termination. The term (the "Term") of this Agreement
shall commence on the date set forth above and shall continue thereafter so long
as any Equipment Schedule entered into pursuant to this Agreement remains in
effect.
The lease term and lease payment for the Equipment shall be as stated
herein and in the respective Equipment Schedule(s). At the end of such lease
term provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Hotel shall
have the option exercisable on no less than 135 days prior written notice to
RoomSystem to (A) purchase the Equipment for its then Fair Market Value (as
hereinafter defined), or (B) renew the Equipment Schedule under mutually
acceptable terms, or (C) terminate the Equipment Schedule according to its
terms. Upon payment in full of the amount required to exercise Hotel's option to
purchase the Equipment, RoomSystem shall transfer its right, title and interest
in the Equipment to Hotel "AS-IS WHERE IS," without any express or implied
representations or warranties whatsoever concerning the condition of the
Equipment. If, upon the termination of the applicable Equipment Schedule as to
any Placed Item, Hotel fails or refuses to return and deliver possession of
Placed Item to RoomSystem pursuant to Section 15 hereof within ten (10) business
days after the expiration of the term of the Equipment Schedule, in addition to
all other rights and remedies available to RoomSystem, Hotel shall be liable to
RoomSystem for the Fair Market Value of such Placed Items until returned to
RoomSystem as well as all other damages incurred by RoomSystem.
All Payments (hereinafter defined) shall, unless otherwise directed by
RoomSystem in writing, be made to RoomSystem on the Payment Date (hereinafter
defined) by electronic transfer of funds, and Hotel shall execute all
authorizations necessary for such electronic transfers. If the Payment Date is
not a business day, Payments for such period shall be due on the next business
day. Any Payment not made by the related Payment Date shall be subject to a late
payment fee of ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Payment amount.
3. Acceptance, Warranties and Limitation of Liability. Hotel shall execute
and deliver to RoomSystem a certificate of acceptance (the "Certificate") in the
form of Exhibit A to the Equipment Schedule with respect to each Placed Item
installed at the Hotel, acknowledging its acceptance of each such Placed Item.
Hotel represents and agrees that, as of the date each Placed Item is accepted
pursuant to a Certificate ("Acceptance Date"), such Certificate shall be
conclusive evidence that each Placed Item is of a size, design, capacity and
manufacture selected by Hotel and that Hotel has inspected such Placed Item,
found it to be in good order, and unconditionally accepts such Placed Item(s),
subject to any right or remedy Hotel may have against the manufacturer or
supplier thereof. Notwithstanding any relationship between RoomSystem and any
manufacturer, supplier or Servicer of the Equipment, RoomSystem shall have no
liability to Hotel for any claim, loss or damage caused or alleged to be caused
directly, indirectly, incidentally or consequentially by the Equipment, by any
inadequacy or deficiency thereof or, defect therein, by any incident whatsoever
in connection therewith, or in any way related to or arising out of this
Agreement whether arising
1
in contract, strict liability, negligence or otherwise. Hotel shall not assert
any claims, counterclaims, or defenses against RoomSystem for consequential,
special or indirect damages, or for loss of use or loss of profits. RoomSystem
makes no express or implied warranties of any kind, including those of
merchantability, durability, or fitness for a particular purpose or use with
respect to the Equipment and expressly disclaims the same. Hotel understands and
agrees that: (A) RoomSystem, Inc. is the supplier of the Equipment; (B) Article
2A of the Uniform Commercial Code (or any state law equivalent) entitles Hotel
to enforce against the supplier or manufacturer of the Equipment warranties made
about the Equipment to RoomSystem; and (C) That Hotel may communicate with the
supplier or manufacturer and receive a copy of the promises, warranties, or
disclaimers made. Hotel will be entitled to the benefit of any applicable
manufacturer's warranties, and to the extent assignable, such warranties are
hereby assigned by RoomSystem for the benefit of Hotel, and Hotel shall take all
reasonable action to enforce such warranties where available to Hotel.
4. Assignment, Obligation to Make Payments Unconditional. RoomSystem may
assign or sell all or a portion of its right, title and interest in and to the
Equipment, any Placed Item, this Agreement, and/or any Equipment Schedule,
and/or grant a security interest in the Equipment, any Placed Item, this
Agreement, and/or any Equipment Schedule, to any other party (any such party is
referred to herein as "Assignee"); provided, however, any such assignment or
sale shall not relieve RoomSystem of any of its obligations hereunder. Hotel
hereby: (A) Consents to such sales, assignments and/or grants; (B) Agrees to
execute promptly and deliver such further acknowledgments, agreements and other
instruments as may be reasonably requested by RoomSystem or any Assignee to
effect such assignments and/or grants; and (C) Agrees to comply fully with the
terms of any such assignments and/or grants. In the event of an assignment,
Assignee shall have all rights and benefits of RoomSystem under this Agreement,
but Assignee shall not be obligated to perform the obligations of RoomSystem
hereunder unless Assignee expressly agrees to do so in writing. Hotel agrees
that its obligation to pay all Payments and other sums payable hereunder and the
rights of RoomSystem and Assignee in and to such Payments, are absolute and
unconditional and are not subject to any abatement, reduction, set off, defense,
counterclaim or recoupment due or alleged to be due, to or by reason of, any
past, present or future claims which Hotel may have against RoomSystem,
Assignee, any manufacturer, supplier, seller or Servicer, defined hereinafter,
of the Equipment, or against any person for any reason whatsoever. Hotel shall
have no right to assign this Agreement, any Equipment Schedule, or the
Maintenance Agreement, or to sublease the Equipment without the express prior
written consent of RoomSystem, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
5. Installation, Maintenance and Repair. Hotel, at its expense, shall be
responsible for the delivery, installation, de-installation, redelivery,
maintenance and repair of the Equipment, all of which shall be effected by the
Servicer (defined in this paragraph) or such other party acceptable to
RoomSystem. Hotel agrees, at all times during the Term of this Agreement, at its
sole expense, to keep the Equipment in good repair, condition and working order,
and to furnish all parts, mechanisms or devices which may be required in the
course of so doing. Hotel will at all times during the Term of this Agreement,
maintain in force a Hotel Installation, Maintenance and License Agreement (the
"Maintenance Agreement"), covering the Equipment with the manufacturer or
supplier of the Equipment, or such other party as may be acceptable to
RoomSystem (such party the "Servicer"). RoomSystem or Assignee will have the
right, but not the obligation, to inspect the Equipment during reasonable
business hours. Hotel shall provide Servicer access to the Equipment to install
at no charge to Hotel engineering changes which RoomSystem or Servicer deems
necessary to keep the Equipment at current engineering levels. As a material
inducement for RoomSystem to enter into this Agreement with Hotel on a "revenue
sharing basis" Hotel shall:
(A) Purchase and maintain an inventory level of Merchandise so as to
maximize the revenue generating capability of the Equipment;
(B) Review the "restocking report" and inspect each Placed Item which
has been used within one (1) day after a guest has checked out of the Hotel
premises and prior to allowing the room to be occupied by a new guest, but not
less than once every month;
(C) Determine during each such inspection whether: (i) such Placed Item
requires refilling of Merchandise to reach full capacity; (ii) such Placed Item
is ready for the next guest as outlined in the operation and procedures manual
provided by Servicer (the "Manual"); and/or (iii) any Merchandise is missing
from a Placed Item and not reported as a sale, and shall then record missing
Merchandise as a sale to any guest's folio as outlined in the Manual;
(D) Fully stock to at least minimum restock level each Placed Item with
Merchandise prior to allowing the room to be occupied by a new guest;
(E) Provide all point-of-sale and printed menus as required by
Servicer to maximize sales volumes;
(F) Provide and maintain the necessary dedicated telephone lines and
internet access, if available, at Hotel's sole expense, and to provide a MATV
and/or telephone system that meets the specifications of Servicer
2
permitting communication of data between the Equipment, the required computer to
operate the Equipment (the "System") and Servicer's (or its affiliates) central
office;
(G) Provide grounded outlets within six feet (6'), and a MATV connector
or RJ-45 direct-connect socket within twelve feet (12') of the location of each
Placed Item in each guest room on the Hotel premises (the "Premises");
(H) Be responsible for the unloading of the Equipment upon delivery and
promptly placing the Equipment into the guest rooms upon arrival;
(I) Take all actions and pay all costs necessary to cause the System to
interface with Hotel's computer system;
(J) During the Term of this Agreement, permit the employees and/or
representatives of RoomSystem or Servicer to stay as a guest in the Hotel, in a
standard double occupancy room, free of charge for room and reasonable board,
for a total of three (3) days per Contract Year (as hereinafter defined) when
visiting the Hotel for the purpose of inspecting the Equipment, and at other
times for a total of five (5) days per Contract Year at a rate equal to fifty
percent of the corporate discount room rate, subject to availability, upon at
least one days' prior notice to Hotel; provided, however, such room and board
shall not include long distance phone calls, use of personal laundry valet,
in-room movies, gift shop purchases, alcoholic beverages, or any other charges
other than room and reasonable board;
(K) Remove all vending machines from the floors that might compete
with the Equipment; and
(L) Perform all of the above obligations in a manner satisfactory to
RoomSystem.
6. Representations and Warranties. Hotel represents and warrants for the
benefit of RoomSystem and any Assignee (as defined hereinafter) and if requested
by RoomSystem will provide an opinion of counsel and other supporting documents
reasonably requested by RoomSystem to the effect that, at the time of execution
of this Agreement and of each Equipment Schedule:
(A) Hotel is a legal entity, duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the law of the jurisdiction where the Equipment will be
located and has adequate power to enter into and perform this Agreement and each
Equipment Schedule and Maintenance Agreement executed hereinafter;
(B) This Agreement and each Equipment Schedule and Maintenance
Agreement executed hereinafter has been duly authorized, executed and delivered
by Hotel and together constitute a valid, legal and binding agreement of Hotel,
each enforceable in accordance with its terms;
(C) The entering into and performance of this Agreement and each
Equipment Schedule and Maintenance Agreement executed hereinafter will not
violate any provision of Hotel's articles of incorporation or bylaws, and to the
best of Hotel's knowledge, will not violate any judgment, order, or result in
any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any
lien, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon any assets of Hotel or
on the Equipment of this Agreement pursuant to any instrument to which Hotel is
a party or by which it or its assets may be bound pursuant to any law or
regulation applicable to Hotel;
(D) To the best of Hotel's knowledge there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending or, threatened, before any court, administrative agency,
arbitrator or government body which will, if determined adversely to Hotel,
materially adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this
Agreement, any Equipment Schedule or the Maintenance Agreement, executed
hereinafter or any related agreement to which Hotel is a party;
(E) To the best of Hotel's knowledge, Hotel is not in any material
default under any loan or lease agreement; and
(F) That all financial information and other information furnished to
RoomSystem or any other party in connection with this Agreement was, at the time
of delivery, true and correct in all respects; and that there has been no
material adverse change with respect to such financial information from the date
of delivery by the Hotel to the date of this Agreement.
7. Risk of Loss and Damage.
(A) Hotel agrees to bear the entire risk of loss with respect to any
damage, destruction, loss, or theft of the Equipment and any Placed Item,
whether insured or not, whether such loss is partial or complete and from any
cause at all, whether or not through any default or neglect of Hotel (except if
such damage, destruction, loss or theft arises from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of RoomSystem) from the Acceptance Date, until the later of
the date such Placed Item is removed from the Hotel by RoomSystem or thirty (30)
days after such Placed Item is returned pursuant to Section 15 hereof. Except as
provided in this Section 7, no such event shall relieve Hotel of its obligation
to make Payments hereunder.
(B) If any Placed Item is damaged and capable of repair, Hotel must
promptly notify RoomSystem, and within sixty (60) days of such damage shall, at
Hotel's expense, cause such repairs to be made as are necessary to return such
Placed Item to its condition prior to such damage.
3
(C) In the event any Placed Item is destroyed, damaged beyond repair,
lost or stolen, (an "Event of Loss"), Hotel must promptly notify RoomSystem and
Assignee and pay to RoomSystem or Assignee, as the case may be, on the second
Payment Date following the Event of Loss, an amount equal to the Manufacturer's
List Price (as defined in the relevant Equipment Schedule) and all Payments
accrued on any such Placed Item up to such second Payment Date. Upon payment of
such amounts in full, Hotel's obligation to pay any further Payments will cease
with respect to such Placed Item(s) (but not with respect to any of the
remaining Equipment) and Hotel will be entitled to receive any insurance
proceeds or other recovery received by RoomSystem or Assignee in connection with
such Event of Loss.
8. Insurance. Hotel, at its sole expense, shall insure the Equipment
against all risks and in such amounts as RoomSystem reasonably requires (but not
less than the aggregate Manufacturer's List Price, as defined in the relevant
Equipment Schedule), of all Placed Items set forth in the Equipment Schedule(s)
with carriers reasonably acceptable to RoomSystem and shall maintain a loss
payable endorsement in favor of RoomSystem and Assignee affording them such
additional protection as they reasonably require; and shall maintain liability
insurance reasonably satisfactory to RoomSystem. Such insurance policies shall
insure against, among other exposures, bodily and personal injury, property
damage liabilities, and other risks customarily insured against by Hotel on
equipment owned by Hotel. All such insurance policies must name RoomSystem,
Hotel and Assignee as insured and loss payees, and must provide that such
policies may not be canceled or altered without at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to RoomSystem and Assignee. Each insurer is hereby authorized and
directed to make payment for any Loss directly to RoomSystem or its Assignee. If
Hotel does not provide RoomSystem or its Assignee evidence of insurance
acceptable to RoomSystem or its Assignees, RoomSystem has the right, but not the
obligation, to obtain insurance covering the Equipment from an insurer of
RoomSystem' choice. RoomSystem may add the costs of acquiring and maintaining
such insurance and all fees for RoomSystem' services in placing and maintaining
such insurance (collectively, "Insurance Charge") to the Payments due from Hotel
under this Agreement. Hotel will pay the Insurance Charge in equal installments
allocated to the remaining Payments (plus interest on such allocation at 1.5%
per month or, if less, the maximum rate allowed by law). If RoomSystem purchases
insurance, Hotel will cooperate with RoomSystem' insurance agent with respect to
the placement of insurance and the processing of claims. Nothing in this
Agreement will create an insurance relationship of any type between RoomSystem
or its Assignee and any other person. Hotel acknowledges that RoomSystem and its
Assignee are not required to secure or maintain any insurance, and RoomSystem
and its Assignee will not be liable to Hotel if RoomSystem or its Assignee
terminate any insurance coverage that RoomSystem or its Assignee arrange. If
RoomSystem or its Assignee replace or renew any insurance coverage, RoomSystem
or its Assignee are not obligated to provide replacement or renewal coverage
under the same terms, cost, limits or conditions of the previous coverage.
9. Indemnity. Hotel agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend,
RoomSystem, Assignee and Servicer and any of their officers, directors or
employees and their successors and assigns (all such parties the "Indemnified
Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits,
proceedings, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, at law or in equity,
whether based on a theory of contract, negligence, strict liability or
otherwise, including reasonable attorneys' fees related thereto, arising out of,
connected with, or resulting from, this Agreement, any Equipment Schedule
executed hereunder, the Maintenance Agreement or the Equipment, including
without limitation, the manufacture, selection, purchase, delivery, possession,
condition, use, lease, operation or return thereof, or any defects in the
Equipment, except to the extent a claim has arisen from such Indemnified Party's
own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as opposed to any vicarious
liability). Hotel's obligations hereunder will survive the expiration of this
Agreement with respect to acts or events occurring or alleged to have occurred
prior to the return of the Equipment to RoomSystem at the end of the Term.
10. Liens and Taxes. RoomSystem owns and holds title to the Equipment.
Hotel will, at its sole expense, keep the Equipment free and clear of all
levies, liens and encumbrances. Hotel will declare and pay to the appropriate
governmental authorities when due all license fees, registration fees,
assessments, charges and taxes, whether municipal, state or federal (foreign and
domestic), including but not limited to, sales and excise taxes, and penalties
and interest with respect thereto, excluding, however, any use or property taxes
or any taxes measured solely by RoomSystem' net income. Hotel shall provide
evidence of any payment hereunder upon request of RoomSystem. Hotel's
obligations hereunder will survive the expiration of this Agreement with respect
to liens or taxes accruing or attaching or alleged to have accrued or attached
prior to the return of the Equipment to RoomSystem at the end of the term of the
applicable Equipment Schedule(s).
11. Hotel's Failure to Perform. After the occurrence of an Event of
Default (as described hereinafter), RoomSystem has the right, but not the
obligation, and without releasing Hotel from any obligation hereunder, to make
or do the same, to pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge
or lien which, in the reasonable judgment of RoomSystem, appears to affect the
Equipment or this Agreement and, in exercising any such rights, incur
4
any liability and expend whatever amount in RoomSystem' reasonable discretion
RoomSystem may deem necessary therefor. All sums so incurred or expended by
RoomSystem shall be, without demand, immediately due and payable by Hotel, shall
be considered Payments hereunder, and will bear interest at the lesser of 1.50%
per month or the highest interest rate legally permissible.
12. Equipment is Personal Property; Location of Equipment. Hotel covenants
and agrees that the Equipment is, and will at all times be and remain, personal
property of RoomSystem or Assignee. If requested by RoomSystem, Hotel will
obtain, prior to delivery of any Placed Item, a certificate in a form
satisfactory to RoomSystem from all parties with an interest in the Premises
wherein the Equipment may be located, waiving any claim with respect to the
Equipment and other items reasonably requested by RoomSystem or Assignee. Hotel
will neither move any Placed Item nor permit any Placed Item to be moved from
the address set forth in the applicable Equipment Schedule without RoomSystem'
advance written consent.
13. Designation of Equipment Ownership. If at any time during the term
hereof, Hotel is supplied with labels, plates or other markings stating that the
Equipment is owned by RoomSystem or is subject to any interest of Assignee,
Hotel agrees to affix and keep the same displayed on the Equipment, provided
however, that such placement shall not be obtrusive to users of the Equipment
while installed at the Hotel. Hotel agrees that this Agreement is a true lease.
However, as a precaution in the event (and only to the extent) the transactions
underlying this Agreement are deemed to be a lease intended for security, Hotel
hereby grants RoomSystem and Assignees a first priority purchase money security
interest in the Equipment. Hotel agrees to execute and file Uniform Commercial
Code financing statements and any and all other instruments necessary to perfect
(in RoomSystem' opinion) RoomSystem' or Assignee's interest in this Agreement,
any Equipment Schedule(s), the Equipment or the payments due hereunder.
RoomSystem may file a copy of this Agreement and appropriate Equipment
Schedule(s) as a financing statement.
14. Use. Hotel shall use the Equipment in a careful and proper manner in
conformance with RoomSystem', manufacturer's, supplier's and Servicer's
specifications and shall comply with, and conform to, all federal, state,
municipal and other laws, ordinances and regulations in any way relating to the
possession, use or maintenance of the Equipment.
15. Surrender of Equipment. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of
each Equipment Schedule with respect to any Placed Item, Hotel shall: (A) make
all Payments due to RoomSystem through and including such termination or
expiration date; and (B) unless Hotel has paid RoomSystem in cash the Fair
Market Value of the Equipment, return the same to RoomSystem in good repair,
condition and working order, ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use
thereof alone excepted. Such return shall be effected promptly by making the
Equipment available to RoomSystem or such other party designated by RoomSystem.
Upon return, all components of the Equipment shall be clean, and shall include
all instruction manuals and operating software. All costs of replacing missing
components and repairing non-working components shall be borne by Hotel. At
Hotel's option, RoomSystem shall clean the returned equipment (or cause it to be
cleaned), the reasonable costs of which shall be paid by Hotel.
The deinstallation of the Equipment shall be done in a manner resulting in
no harm or damage to the Equipment. RoomSystem shall have the sole right to make
all the arrangements for (A) the transportation of each Placed Item to and the
deinstallation of each Placed Item at the equipment location stated in the
applicable Equipment Schedule, and (B) the discontinuance, disassembly, packing
and transportation of each Placed Item from the equipment location to a location
of RoomSystem' choice within the United States upon the termination of the
applicable Equipment Schedule (by expiration or otherwise) as to such Placed
Item. Hotel shall pay all costs of deinstallation, disassembly, packing and
transportation of the Equipment.
16. Default. The occurrence of any of the following events, among others,
shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default"): (A) The failure of
RoomSystem to receive any Payment on the date on which it is due which failure
is not cured within five (5) days after notice thereof from RoomSystem or
Assignee; (B) The failure by Hotel to perform or observe any other term,
covenant or condition of this Agreement or any Equipment Schedule or any
Maintenance Agreement, which is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice
thereof from RoomSystem or Assignee; (C) Any affirmative act of insolvency by
Hotel, or the filing by Hotel of any petition or action under any bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency arrangement, liquidation dissolution or moratorium
law, or any other law or laws for the relief of, or relating to debtors; (D) The
filing of any involuntary petition against Hotel under any bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency arrangement, liquidation, dissolution or moratorium
law for the relief of or relating to debtors which is not dismissed within sixty
(60) days thereafter, or the appointment of any receiver, liquidator or trustee
to take possession of any substantial portion of the properties of Hotel, unless
the appointment is set aside or ceases to be in effect within sixty (60) days
from the date of said filing or appointment; (E) The subjection of a substantial
part of Hotel's property or any Placed Item to any levy, seizure, assignment or
sale for or by any creditor or governmental agency; (F) Any representation or
warranty made by Hotel in this Agreement or in any Equipment Schedule or in any
document furnished by Hotel to RoomSystem or Assignee in
5
connection with this Agreement or any Equipment Schedule or with respect to the
acquisition or use of the Equipment shall be untrue in any material respect at
any time; (G) The default by Hotel under any other lease or loan agreement which
materially and/or adversely affects Hotel's ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement; or (H) if any Placed Item is sold or has a lien or
encumbrance placed upon it by someone other than RoomSystem or Assignee.
17. Remedies. Upon the happening of any Event of Default, RoomSystem or
Assignee may do one or more of the following:
(A) Require Hotel, and Hotel shall, upon demand of RoomSystem, on the
next Payment Date following such demand, pay RoomSystem or Assignee, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the Liquidated
Damage Value multiplied by 1.2, together with any Payments then due and owing by
Hotel hereunder, as well as all costs and expenses owed under this Agreement,
including commissions, legal fees and disbursements (in-house or otherwise) and
other expenses incurred by RoomSystem as a result of the Event of Default and
the exercise of RoomSystem' remedies with respect thereto (all such amounts
collectively the "Default Value"), plus interest on the Default Value at ten
percent (10%) (or such lesser amount allowed by law);
(B) RoomSystem (or its representative) may, without notice to or demand
upon Hotel, take possession of the Equipment and lease and/or sell the same, or
any portion thereof, in such manner or amount, and to such entity as RoomSystem,
in RoomSystem' discretion shall elect. If RoomSystem elects to sell or lease the
Equipment, RoomSystem may do so at a public or private sale or lease and upon
notice to Hotel, which notice will be deemed to be commercially reasonable if
the time and place of any public sale, lease or other intended disposition or
the time after which any private sale, lease or other intended disposition is to
be made shall be sent by first class, certified or registered mail to Hotel no
later than ten (10) days prior to such proposed sale, lease or other
disposition. The proceeds of such sale or lease will be applied by RoomSystem
(i) first, to pay RoomSystem an amount equal to the Default Value; and (ii)
second, to reimburse Hotel for the Default Value to the extent previously paid
by Hotel. Any surplus remaining thereafter will be retained by RoomSystem. Hotel
shall remain responsible for any outstanding balance of the Default Value after
application of any proceeds received from such sale or lease of the Equipment;
(C) Take possession of the Equipment and hold and keep idle the same or
any portion thereof;
(D) Convert the Equipment to a direct credit card billing system, or
disable the Equipment;
(E) Cancel or terminate this Agreement or any and all other agreements
between Hotel and RoomSystem (or its affiliates).
(F) RoomSystem (or its representative) may, without notice to or demand
upon Hotel, shut the system down until the default is cured. During the time the
system is shutdown, hotel shall pay downroom fees for all the installed
Equipment. Such payment shall be made even in the event of a dispute. In
addition, a return to service fee of $1,000 shall apply to turn system back on.
The exercise of any of the foregoing remedies by RoomSystem will not
constitute a termination of this Agreement or any Equipment Schedule unless
RoomSystem so notifies Hotel in writing. No remedy referred to in this Section
17 is intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to
any other remedy provided herein available to RoomSystem at law or in equity.
18. Miscellaneous.
(A) Effect of Waiver. No delay or omission to exercise any right or
remedy accruing to RoomSystem or any Assignee upon any breach or default of
Hotel will impair any such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any
such breach or default; nor will a waiver of any single breach or default be
deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter
occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval on the part of RoomSystem or
any Assignee of any breach or default under this Agreement, any Equipment
Schedule or any Maintenance Agreement or of any provision or condition hereof or
thereof, must be in writing specifically set forth.
(B) Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given by the
provisions hereof must be in writing and will be conclusively deemed to have
been received by a party hereto on the day it is delivered to such party at the
address indicated below (or at such other address as such party specifies to the
other party in writing) or, if sent by registered or certified U.S. mail, on the
fifth business day after the day on which mailed, addressed to such party at
such address:

(C) Attorneys' Fees and Costs. In the event of any action at law or
suit in equity in relation to this Agreement, any Equipment Schedule or
Maintenance Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover from the
non-prevailing party attorneys' fees and costs.
6
(D) Applicable Law, Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement and
Equipment Schedule(s) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the state of Nevada, without regard to principles of conflicts of
law. RoomSystem and Hotel hereby consent to jurisdiction and venue in any state
or federal court in the state of Nevada and hereby waive any objections that
jurisdiction or venue in any such court is not proper.
(E) Security Interest. No security interest in this Agreement, any
Equipment Schedule, or any Maintenance Agreement may be granted by Hotel without
RoomSystem' consent.
(F) Financial Statements. Hotel agrees to furnish promptly, or cause to
be furnished, to RoomSystem and Assignee within one hundred twenty (120) days of
the end of each fiscal year, financial statements of Hotel prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, together with such
other financial and related information respecting the Hotel or the Equipment as
RoomSystem or Assignee may from time to time reasonably request.
(G) Entire Agreement. RoomSystem and Hotel acknowledge that there are
no agreements or understandings, written or oral, between RoomSystem and Hotel
with respect to the Equipment, other than as set forth herein and in each
Equipment Schedule and that this Agreement and each Equipment Schedule contain
the entire agreement between RoomSystem and Hotel with respect thereto. Neither
this Agreement, nor any Equipment Schedule may be altered, modified, terminated
or discharged except by a writing signed by the party against whom such
alteration, modification or discharge is sought.
(H) Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any Equipment
Schedule prohibited by, or unlawful or unenforceable under, any applicable law
in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective as to such jurisdiction without
invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that
to the extent that the provisions of any such applicable law can be waived, they
are hereby waived by Hotel and RoomSystem.
(I) Non-specified Features. If the Equipment delivered pursuant to any
Equipment Schedule contains any features not specified therein, Hotel grants
RoomSystem, at RoomSystem' option and RoomSystem' expense, the right to remove
or deactivate any such features. Such removal or deactivation shall be performed
by the RoomSystem or another party reasonably acceptable to RoomSystem, at a
