5
Agreement under Section 3(h) shall be deemed to have been held on the Effective Date) to one or more un-Affiliated third parties (i) during each 365-day period beginning on the sixth (6th), seventh (7th) and eighth (8th) anniversaries of the Effective Date, or (ii) if earlier, the dates that are three and one-half (3.5) years, four and one-half (4.5) years and five and one-half (5.5) years following the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering; provided that in the case of Transfers described in clause (ii) of this Section 3(b), such Transfers are accomplished by way of a broad distribution sale. |
(c) | In addition to Section 3(b) above, following the first Public Offering and subject to Section 3(d), a Stockholder may Transfer up to a number of shares of Restricted Stock equal to one-third (1/3rd) of the number of shares of Restricted Stock that were held by such Stockholder and/or trusts for the benefit of such Stockholder (and/or such Stockholder’s lineal descendants) on the Effective Date (and for this purpose, Other Shares made subject to this Agreement under Section 3(h) shall be deemed to have been held on the Effective Date) to one or more un-Affiliated third parties (i) at any time following the end of the first calendar year during which the Existing Stockholders at any time during such year owned less than twenty five percent (25%) of the Common Stock outstanding at such time or (ii) at any time following both (A) the Effective Date and (B) the first date on which the Applicable Market Value exceeded one hundred sixty five percent (165%) of the gross price per share at which the Common Stock was first traded in the first Public Offering of the Common Stock; provided that in the case of Transfers described in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), such Transfers are accomplished either by way of an underwritten Public Offering with a principal underwriter reasonably acceptable to the Company or by way of an otherwise broad distribution sale. |

Subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(d), no Transfer may be made under this Section 3, unless the Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as though it were a Stockholder. Upon compliance with all provisions hereof, all other Stockholders agree to execute and deliver such amendments hereto as are necessary to cause such Transferee to become a Stockholder. Following a the first Public Offering, the second sentence of this Section 3(d) shall not apply in the case of Transfers pursuant to an underwritten Public Offering or broad distribution sale. |
(e) | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3, no Stockholder may Transfer, and no Person may acquire, the legal or beneficial ownership of any Restricted Stock unless such acquiring Person’s ownership of Restricted Stock is not reasonably likely to jeopardize any licensing from a Governmental Authority with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Following the first Public |
6
Offering, the restrictions described in this Section 3(e) shall be qualified by the actual knowledge of the Transferring Stockholder (after limited inquiry) in the case of Transfers pursuant to an underwritten Public Offering or broad distribution sale. |

(g) | Under no circumstances shall a Transfer be made (i) to a competitor of the Company engaged in one or more of the hospitality, lodging and/or gaming industries, (ii) to an aggregator (meaning, a Person who is required to file a Schedule 13D (or successor form) under the Exchange Act disclosing an intent other than for investment) or (iii) which would cause a Stockholder to violate any provision of this Agreement. Following the first Public Offering, the restrictions described in this Section 3(g) shall be qualified by the actual knowledge of the Transferring Stockholder (after limited inquiry) in the case of Transfers pursuant to an underwritten Public Offering or broad distribution sale. |
(h) | Each Adult Beneficiary agrees that in the event any Other Shares are Transferred to such Adult Beneficiary or trusts for the benefit of such Adult Beneficiary (and/or such Adult Beneficiary’s lineal descendants), such Adult Beneficiary shall use reasonable best efforts to secure the joinder of the Transferee of such Common Stock to this Agreement upon such Transfer. Upon the execution of such joinder by a Transferee, such Transferee will be considered to be a Stockholder for all purposes hereunder and such Transferee’s name shall be listed on an updated and revised Schedule C to be attached hereto. |

Any notice or communication by and among the Stockholders under this Agreement is duly given if in writing and delivered in person or by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), facsimile transmission or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the recipient’s address indicated on Schedule D attached hereto as amended from time to time. Any Stockholder, by notice to the other parties hereto, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

5. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS INTERNAL CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
7
6. Arbitration.
(a) | Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, any and all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any dispute regarding its arbitrability, validity or termination, or the performance or breach thereof, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration administered by the AAA. Any party to this Agreement may initiate arbitration by notice to any other party (a “Request for Arbitration”). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA rules governing commercial arbitration in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as they may be modified by the provisions of this Agreement. The place of the arbitration shall be Chicago, Illinois. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator appointed by the Stockholder(s) involved in the arbitration who did not submit the Request for Arbitration from a list of at least five (5) individuals who are independent and qualified to serve as an arbitrator submitted by the Stockholder submitting the Request for Arbitration within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Request for Arbitration. The Stockholder(s) who did not submit the Request for Arbitration will make the appointment within ten (10) days after it receives the list of qualified individuals. In the event the Stockholder submitting the Request for Arbitration fails to send a list of at least five (5) qualified individuals to serve as arbitrator to the other Stockholders within such fifteen-day time period, then the Stockholders who did not submit the Request for Arbitration shall appoint such arbitrator within twenty-five (25) days from the Request for Arbitration. In the event the Stockholders who did not submit the Request for Arbitration fail to appoint a person to serve as arbitrator from the list of at least five (5) qualified individuals within ten (10) days after its receipt of such list from the submitting Stockholder, the submitting Stockholder shall appoint one of the individuals from such list to serve as arbitrator within five (5) days after the expiration of such ten (10) day period. Any individual will be qualified to serve as an arbitrator if he or she shall be an individual who has no material business relationship, directly or indirectly, with any of the parties to this Agreement and who has at least ten (10) years of experience in the practice of law with experience in corporate governance. The arbitration hearing shall commence within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the arbitrator; the arbitration hearing shall be completed within sixty (60) days of commencement; and the arbitrator’s award shall be made within thirty (30) days following such completion. The parties may agree to extend the time limits specified in the foregoing sentence. |
(b) | The arbitrator will apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of Illinois without reference to its internal conflicts of laws principles, and will be without power to apply any different substantive law. The arbitrator will render an award and a written opinion in support thereof. Such award shall include the costs related to the arbitration and reasonable attorneys’ |
8
fees and expenses to the prevailing party. The arbitrator also has the authority to grant provisional remedies, including injunctive relief, and to award specific performance. The arbitrator may entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party, applying the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and may rule upon any claim or counterclaim, or any portion thereof (a “Claim”), without holding an evidentiary hearing, if, after affording the parties an opportunity to present written submission and documentary evidence, the arbitrator concludes that there is no material issue of fact and that the Claim may be determined as a matter of law. The parties waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any rights to appeal, or to review of, any arbitrator’s award by any court. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction, including the courts of Xxxx County, Illinois. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of Illinois and of the United States sitting in Chicago, Illinois in connection with any such proceeding, and waives any objection based on forum non conveniens. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE AN ARBITRATOR’S DECISION OR AWARD PURSUANT TO SECTION 6(a) OF THIS AGREEMENT. |
(c) | The parties agree to maintain confidentiality as to all aspects of the arbitration, except as may be required by applicable law, regulations or court order, or to maintain or satisfy any suitability requirements for any license by any state, federal or other regulatory authority or body, including professional societies and organizations; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent a party from disclosing information regarding the arbitration for purposes of enforcing the award. The parties further agree to obtain the arbitrator’s agreement to preserve the confidentiality of the arbitration. |
(d) | Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any Person who asserts a Claim challenging any action taken by Xxxx X. Xxxxxx as co-trustee of the trusts listed on Schedules X-0, X-0 and A-3 attached hereto (or any successor to Xxxx X. Xxxxxx as trustee of the trusts listed on Schedules X-0, X-0 and A-3 attached hereto) (Xxxx X. Xxxxxx and any such successor referred to in this Section 6(d) as the “Third Trustee”) in entering into or performing this Agreement, shall be required to make an initial showing, from which the Arbitrator will determine whether further proceedings are warranted, that the Third Trustee was materially uninformed or misled, or that his determination process was corrupted (the “Applicable Standard”). If the Arbitrator determines that such initial showing is insufficient to meet the Applicable Standard, the Claim, insofar as it challenges any such action taken by the Third Trustee, shall be dismissed. This Section 6(d) may not be amended, modified or waived without the written consent of the Third Trustee. |

7. Successors and Assigns. None of the parties shall have the right to assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement or any part hereof, except as expressly permitted herein. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and accrue to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
8. No Other Relationships. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute any Stockholder the legal representative or agent of any other Stockholder.
9. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a Governmental Authority, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof (or the remaining portion thereof) or the application of such provision to any other persons or circumstances. Upon such determination that any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible.
10. Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement will be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief or specific performance without bond or the necessity of showing actual monetary damages in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement.
11. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic image scan shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
12. No Trustee Liability. When this Agreement is executed by a trustee of a trust, such execution is by the trustee, not individually, but solely as trustee in the exercise of and under the power and authority conferred upon and invested in such trustee, and it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as imposing any liability on any such trustee personally to pay any amounts required to be paid hereunder or thereunder, or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, contained herein or therein, all such personal liability, if any, having been expressly waived by the parties by their execution hereof. Any liability of a trust hereunder shall not be a personal liability of any trustee, grantor or beneficiary thereof, and any recourse against a trustee shall be solely against the assets of the pertinent trust.
13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between or among the Stockholders, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof, including, the Original Agreement.
10
14. Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by (a) holders of a majority of the Restricted Stock held by the Stockholders at the time such action is proposed to be taken or, in the case of a waiver, by the parties waiving compliance, and (b) each of the then living and legally competent individuals listed on Schedule B attached hereto under the heading “B-1,” so long as each such individual is the legal or beneficial owner of Restricted Stock. No delay on the part of any party on exercising any right, power or privileges hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege, or any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.
15. Confidentiality and Public Announcements. No party hereto shall make any publicity releases, interviews or other disclosure or dissemination of any information concerning this Agreement or its terms, or any party’s performance hereunder, to any Person without the prior written approval of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that this provision shall not prevent disclosure: (a) as required by applicable law, (b) to any party’s financial advisors or legal advisors who are bound by similar terms of confidentiality, (c) as is, in good faith, deemed necessary or advisable under applicable securities laws or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange by which a party is bound or (d) in connection with enforcement of this Agreement in an arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 6 hereof.
16. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any Person, other than the parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.
17. Waiver of Certain Damages. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.
18. Joinder by Adult Beneficiaries. The Adult Beneficiaries are joining this Agreement as beneficiaries under certain of the trusts listed on Schedules X-0, X-0, and A-3, as applicable, to confirm to the Trustees that the Adult Beneficiaries believe this Agreement is in their and their descendants’ best interests and welfare, that on their own behalf and on behalf of their descendants they consent to this Agreement, that they desire the Trustees to enter into this Agreement and that in the event the Adult Beneficiaries receive distributions or other Transfers of any Restricted Stock after the Effective Date, such Restricted Stock shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement. Each Adult Beneficiary agrees that at such time as any child of such Adult Beneficiary turns 18 years old (a “New AB”) prior to the Restriction Expiration Date, such Adult Beneficiary shall use reasonable best efforts to secure the joinder of such New AB to this Agreement. Upon the execution of such joinder by a New AB, such New AB will be considered to be an Adult Beneficiary for all purposes hereunder and Schedule B hereto shall be deemed to be updated to reflect the addition of such New AB.
11
19. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the first to occur of (a) with respect to any Stockholder, on the first date when such Stockholder no longer holds any shares of Restricted Stock, (b) upon the agreement in writing of each of the Stockholders party hereto or (c) on the Restriction Expiration Date; provided, that Sections 4 through 19 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
