GN hereby grants to GNOG a limited, revocable, nonexclusive license (the “Equipment Room License”) to use a portion of the equipment room space at the Property shown on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Equipment Room”) solely to install, operate, maintain and repair servers, computer racks, computer equipment, software, hardware and other equipment owned, licensed or leased by GNOG or its designees, associated with GNOG Gaming Service (the “GNOG Equipment”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 6. So long as GNOG is not in material default of this Agreement, taking into account any applicable notice and cure period, GN shall not revoke the Equipment Room License during the Term.

6.1.1 The Parties acknowledge that the GNOG Equipment is presently installed in an acceptable location within the Equipment Room (the “Licensed Area”). GN agrees that GNOG will have use of, and access to, such electrical power, backup generator power, HVAC, fire suppression and redundancies (“Support Facilities”) as may currently exist in the Equipment Room as of the Effective Date to the extent GNOG’s use any of the foregoing would not materially adversely impact the use or operation of any equipment or any equipment of GN or third parties currently installed within the Equipment Room. Any additions or enhancements to existing Support Facilities will be at the cost and expense of GNOG pursuant to Section 6.1.2 below. The Licensed Area shall adequately house the GNOG Equipment and allow GNOG to reasonably install, operate, maintain and repair the GNOG Equipment. GN will have the right to relocate with Licensed Area; provided, however, GN will not require GNOG to relocate the GNOG Equipment on less than sixty (60) days written notice, except in the case of an Emergency. In the event of an Emergency, GN will use reasonable efforts to provide GNOG immediate notice upon discovery of or identification of such impeding event that does, or with the passage of time, may keep GNOG from properly utilizing the Licensed Area. Subject to Section 6.1.2 below, GNOG shall not be responsible for any lease or rental costs for use of the Licensed Area in the Equipment Room.

6.1.2 GNOG shall, at its sole cost and expense, be responsible for paying for any alterations, improvements or capital expenditures to the Property, Equipment Room and/or related infrastructure which is either (i) required by NJ Gaming Law for the GNOG Equipment, or (ii) which GNOG may reasonably deem necessary, in either case for the installation and proper operation of the GNOG Equipment and any other GNOG equipment located in the Equipment Room, including without limitation, additional power supply, additional air-conditioning, dedicated data circuits, and internet service. All such alterations, improvements or capital expenditures under Section 6.1.2(ii) above shall be performed at the direction of GN at GNOG’s sole cost and expense. GNOG shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the maintenance and repair of any improvements or alterations which solely service GNOG Equipment. Subject to the terms of this Article 6, GN shall be responsible to maintain and repair Support Facilities which service all equipment located in the Equipment Room generally.

6.1.3 GNOG shall provide GN (and shall keep up to date) a list of the GNOG’s employees, agents, and contractors who will be entering the Equipment Room on behalf of GNOG (“Authorized Personnel”) and certify that all such Authorized Personnel are authorized to enter the Equipment Room with appropriate Gaming Approvals, pending applications to receive Gaming Approvals or the lack of any necessity for such persons to have Gaming Approvals. Subject to applicable Laws, and compliance with GN’s reasonable general operating policies and procedures for the Property (as may be in effect from time to time), GNOG’s Authorized Personnel may access the Equipment Room at any time with advanced reasonable notice. Additionally, GNOG shall have, as appurtenant to the Equipment Room License, non-exclusive rights to access common walkways necessary for access to the Property. GNOG acknowledges that, under no circumstances shall GNOG and/or its employees, agents, contractors, licensees or invitees have access to or use of any equipment located within the Equipment Room other than the GNOG Equipment, without the prior written consent of GN.

6.1.4 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6 to the contrary, GNOG may retain the GNOG Equipment in the Property until the later of the end of thirty (30) Business Days after the end of the Term or forty-five (45) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and retain access to the Property by Authorized Personnel for the sole purpose of removing the GNOG Equipment. GNOG’s access to the Property for such purpose shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Equipment Room License. To the extent that GNOG Equipment continues to occupy the Equipment Room beyond any period permitted under this Agreement, any GNOG Equipment remaining after such period shall, at GN’s option, be deemed abandoned, automatically become the property of GN and GN may use or dispose of such GNOG Equipment as GN may determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

6.1.5 Both Parties will comply with all applicable Laws, including all regulations of all duly constituted authorities with jurisdiction over the Equipment Room, the Casino, the GNOG Equipment and/or the GNOG Gaming Service.

6.1.6 GNOG acknowledges and agrees that it will be provided with an opportunity to inspect the Equipment Room and shall accept possession of the Licensed Area of the Equipment Room from GN in its existing “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” condition. GNOG ACKNOWLEDGES THROUGH ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE LICENSED AREA, AND EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, GN HAS NOT MADE AND WILL NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES TO GNOG WITH RESPECT TO THE QUALITY OF CONSTRUCTION OF ANY IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN OR CONNECTED TO THE EQUIPMENT ROOM OR AS TO THE CONDITION OF THE EQUIPMENT ROOM OR ITS CONNECTIONS AS OF DELIVERY, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND THAT GN EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT THE EQUIPMENT ROOM IS SUITABLE FOR GNOG’S INTENDED COMMERCIAL PURPOSES AS OF DELIVERY. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, (A) GNOG’S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ARE NOT DEPENDENT UPON THE CONDITION OF THE EQUIPMENT ROOM OR THE PROPERTY (NOW OR IN THE FUTURE), AND (B) GNOG SHALL CONTINUE TO PAY ALL AMOUNTS HEREUNDER WITHOUT ABATEMENT, SETOFF OR DEDUCTION NOTWITHSTANDING ANY BREACH BY GN OF ITS DUTIES OR OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE EQUIPMENT ROOM HEREUNDER.

6.1.7 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except as provided in Section 6.1.7 above, no suspension, interruption, malfunction or change in the quantity or character of any utility service provided to the Equipment Room shall constitute an eviction or disturbance of GNOG’s use or possession of the Licensed Area or a breach by GN of any of GN’s obligations hereunder or render GN liable or responsible to GNOG for any loss or damage which GNOG may sustain or incur, or grant GNOG any right to set off, abatement, or recoupment. In such event, if the condition is not cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice to GN, GNOG’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to elect to remove the GNOG Equipment from the Licensed Area without any further liability on the part of GN.

6.1.8 If the Licensed Area is destroyed by fire or other casualty so as to render the Licensed Area unusable for the permitted uses set forth herein, GN shall have no obligation to restore the Equipment Room absent providing written notice to GNOG of its election to do so.

6.1.9 EXCEPT IN THE CASE WHERE THE FOLLOWING ARISE OUT OF OR ARE IN CONNECTION WITH THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF GN, GNOG SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD GN HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL COSTS, EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES), FINES, SUITS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, JUDGMENTS, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES AND ACTIONS ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM (A) ANY INJURY TO OR DEATH OF, OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY OF, GNOG, GNOG’S EMPLOYEES OR CONTRACTORS, (B) FAILURE BY THE GNOG EQUIPMENT TO COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS OR REGULATIONS, OR (C) THE OPERATION, PERFORMANCE, OR FUNCTIONALITY OF THE GNOG EQUIPMENT.

6.1.10 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct of GN, GNOG hereby waives any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or cause of action against GN, its officers, directors, employees or agents for any damage to the Licensed Area or GNOG Equipment, by reason of fire, the elements or any other cause which is insurable under a standard “all risk” property insurance policy on the GNOG Equipment, regardless of cause or origin.

Article 9

CONFIDENTIALITY

9.1 Confidentiality. Each of GNOG and GN acknowledges that it may acquire Confidential Information (as defined below) with respect to the other Party and the Online Gaming Business. In connection therewith, each Party covenants to refrain from using or disclosing at any time any such Confidential Information with respect to the other Party except as expressly permitted under this Agreement or to the extent necessary to fulfill such Party’s duties under this Agreement. Each Party may share the Confidential Information disclosed by the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to such receiving Party (the “Receiving Party”) with such Receiving Party’s Affiliates, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, and accountants (collectively, “Representatives”) who need to know such Confidential Information in order for the Receiving Party to perform its obligations and duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the Receiving Party informs such Representatives of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and (ii) such Representatives agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section 9. The Receiving Party will protect and maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information it receives from the Disclosing Party with the same care it uses to protect and maintain its own Confidential Information, but in no case less than a reasonable degree of care. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Receiving Party shall be responsible for any action or inaction by any of its Representatives if such action or inaction could constitute a breach of the obligations of this Section 9 had such action or inaction been made by the Receiving Party.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information with respect to a Party and its Affiliates and the Online Gaming Business, including, without limitation, confidential information and trade secrets concerning such business and other plans, customer names, customer requirements and supplier names, profit formulas and financial plans, disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party, whether orally or in writing, whether or not labeled as confidential. “Confidential Information” shall not include information that:

(i) was available to the general public at the time it was disclosed or becomes available to the general public subsequent to the disclosure (provided that this exception will not apply if the public disclosure is due to an act or omission of the Receiving Party or its Representatives);

(ii) was independently developed by the Receiving Party or its Representatives without any use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or

(iii) was properly and legally received from a third party which is not an Affiliate of GNOG or GN and which is not under any duty to the Disclosing Party not to disclose such information at the time of such disclosure.

9.2 Disclosures Required by Law. The Receiving Party and its Affiliates may disclose information received under this Agreement to the extent required by applicable Law, an order or requirement of a court, a subpoena or other discovery process (e.g., interrogatories or requests for the production of documents), or an order or requirement of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over the Receiving Party or any relevant Affiliate); provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall, if legally permitted, provide prompt notice thereof to the Disclosing Party prior to any such disclosure so that the Disclosing Party can determine whether the Disclosing Party desires to obtain a protective order or otherwise prevent public disclosure of such information. If the Disclosing Party seeks a protective order, then the Receiving Party and any relevant Affiliate will provide reasonable cooperation at the Disclosing Party’s request and expense. In the event that a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Receiving Party and any relevant Affiliate may furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise all commercially reasonable efforts, at the Disclosing Party’s expense, to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such disclosed Confidential Information.
