ARTICLE I

The Merger

Section 1.01 The Merger. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, on the Closing Date, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). At the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Company”).

Section 1.02 Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the Merger shall take place at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP, Four Times Square, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 at 9 a.m., Eastern time, on a date to be specified by the Company and Parent, which shall be no later than the second Business Day following the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver by the party or parties entitled to the benefits thereof of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of those conditions), or at such other place, time and date as shall be agreed in writing between the Company and Parent; provided, however, that if the Marketing Period has not ended at the time of the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of those conditions), then the Closing shall occur on the earlier to occur of (a) a Business Day, if any, during the Marketing Period specified by Parent on no less than three Business Days’ notice to the Company and (b) two Business Days following the final day of the Marketing Period, as the Marketing Period may be extended in accordance with the terms hereof (subject in each case in clause (a) and clause (b) above to the satisfaction or waiver (by the party entitled to grant such waiver) of all the conditions set forth in Article VII for the Closing as of the date determined pursuant to this proviso). The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.03 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable on the Closing Date, the parties shall file with the Delaware Secretary of State the certificate of merger relating to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), executed and acknowledged in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, and, as soon as practicable on or after the Closing Date, shall make all other filings required under the DGCL or by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at the time that the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, or at such later time as the Company and Parent shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.04 Effects. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

Section 1.05 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The certificate of incorporation of the Company shall, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action, be amended and restated to read in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit A and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law. The bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Company until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law, except that references to the name of Merger Sub shall be replaced by references to the name of the Surviving Company.

Section 1.06 Directors and Officers of Surviving Company. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their death, in each case, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, as the case may be. The officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, as the case may be.

ARTICLE II

Effect on the Capital Stock of the Constituent Entities; Exchange of Certificates

Section 2.01 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, HHC, Merger Sub or the holder of any shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) or any shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”):

(a) Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Company with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Company. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Company into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(b) Cancellation of Parent-Owned Stock and Subsidiary-Owned Stock.

(i) Each share of Common Stock that is owned by the Company as treasury stock and each share of Common Stock that is owned directly by Parent, HHC, or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(ii) Each share of Common Stock that is owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (including HHC but excluding Merger Sub) or of Merger Sub shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Conversion of Common Stock. Subject to Sections 2.02, 2.03 and 6.04, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be canceled or converted into shares of the Surviving Company in accordance with Section 2.01(b)), and, except as provided in Section 2.03, any shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such Common Stock pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”)) and, as of the Effective Time, has not failed to perfect, or not effectively withdrawn or lost rights to appraisal under the DGCL, shall be converted into the right to receive $23.75 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration” and together with the Option Merger Consideration and the RSU Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 6.04, the “Closing Merger Consideration”). All such shares of Common Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (or evidence of shares in book-entry form (such shares, “Book-Entry Shares”)) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend or distribution, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then any number or amount contained herein, including the Closing Merger Consideration, will be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 2.02 Exchange of Certificates; Payment Fund.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall, at its sole cost and expense, appoint a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment and delivery of the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article II. At the Closing, immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Paying Agent for payment in accordance with this Article II through the Paying Agent, cash sufficient to pay the Merger Consideration. All such cash deposited with the Paying Agent is hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund.”

(b) Letter of Transmittal. As reasonably promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (and in any event within three Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail, or otherwise provide in the case of Book-Entry Shares, to each holder of record of Common Stock (i) a form of letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) which shall specify that delivery shall be effected and risk of loss and title shall pass (A) with respect to shares evidenced by Certificates, only upon the proper delivery of the Certificates and validly executed Letter of Transmittal to the Paying Agent (and such other documents as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) and (B) with respect to Book-Entry Shares, only upon proper delivery of an “agent’s message” regarding the book-entry transfer of Book-Entry Shares (or such other evidence, if any, of the transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of Book-Entry Shares or Certificates in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration.

(c) Merger Consideration Received in Connection with Exchange. Upon (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock represented by a Certificate, the surrender of such Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent together with the Letter of Transmittal, duly, completely and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, or (ii) in the case of shares of Common Stock held as Book-Entry Shares, the receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent, in each case together with such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a transferee if the Certificate or Book-Entry Share representing such Common Stock is presented to the Paying Agent (or, in the case of Book-Entry Shares, proper evidence of such transfer) accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02(c), each share of Common Stock, and any Certificate with respect thereto, shall be deemed at any time from and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration that the holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive in respect of such shares pursuant to this Section 2.02(c). No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon surrender of the Certificates (or shares of Common Stock held as Book-Entry Shares). In the case of Company Stock Awards, the holder of such Company Stock Awards shall receive in exchange therefor the applicable Closing Merger Consideration into which such Company Stock Awards have been converted pursuant to Section 6.04, to be paid through the payroll of the Company or its Affiliates on or as soon as practicable after the Closing Date and in no event later than five Business Days following the Closing Date.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Common Stock. The Closing Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon conversion of any shares of Common Stock and any Company Stock Awards shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Common Stock or Company Stock Awards, as applicable. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of shares of Common Stock or Company Stock Awards that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Common Stock (or shares of Common Stock held in book-entry form) are presented to Parent or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II, subject to applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

(e) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) that remains undistributed to the holders of Common Stock for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent (or its designee), and any holder of Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) for payment of its claim for the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon.

(f) No Liability. None of the Company, Parent, HHC, Merger Sub or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Payment Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any portion of the Payment Fund remaining unclaimed by former holders of Common Stock as of a date that is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat or become property of any Governmental Entity shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Parent (or its designee) free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Investment of Payment Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest any cash in the Payment Fund if and as directed by Parent; provided, that such investment shall be in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations of issuers organized under the Law of a state of the United States of America, rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers’ acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion, or in mutual funds investing in such assets. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to, and be the property of, Parent. No investment losses resulting from investment of the Payment Fund shall diminish the rights of any of the Company’s stockholders to receive the Merger Consideration or any other payment as provided herein. To the extent there are losses with respect to such investments or the Payment Fund diminishes for any other reason below the level required to make prompt cash payment of the aggregate funds required to be paid pursuant to the terms hereof, Parent shall reasonably promptly replace or restore the cash in the Payment Fund so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient to make such cash payments.

(h) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Company and the Paying Agent (without duplication) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Tax Law; provided, however, that except as required by a change in Law occurring after the date of this Agreement, the parties agree that no withholding shall be made under Section 1445 of the Code with respect to the amounts payable under this Agreement. Amounts so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(i) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, pay the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent may, as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to provide a bond in a customary amount.

(j) Payoff Letters; Customary KYC Material. The Company shall (i) deliver to Parent, no later than the third Business Day prior to the Closing Date, customary pay-off letters relating to the repayment on the Closing Date of the Existing Company Debt and the release of related Liens and (ii) deliver to Parent no later than the fourth Business Day prior to the Closing Date any Customary KYC Material that has been requested at least eight calendar days prior to the Closing Date.

Section 2.03 Dissenter’s Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Dissenting Shares shall be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01, and instead the holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL (unless and until such stockholder shall have failed to timely perfect, or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost, such stockholder’s right to dissent from the Merger under the DGCL, in which case such stockholder shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.01, without interest thereon, in exchange for such shares of Common Stock, and such shares of Common Stock shall no longer be deemed to be Dissenting Shares) and to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to and subject to the requirements of the DGCL (the “Dissenter’s Rights”). In such case, at the Effective Time, the Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except with respect to Dissenter’s Rights and as provided in this Section 2.03.

(b) The Company shall provide prompt written notice to Parent of any written notices or demands for appraisal by any holder of shares of Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by the Company relating to the Dissenter’s Rights, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by an order of a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle any such demands.

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub

Parent, HHC and Merger Sub jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Company that the statements contained in this Article III are true and correct except as set forth in the disclosure letter delivered by Parent to the Company at or before the execution and delivery by Parent, HHC and Merger Sub of this Agreement (the “Parent Disclosure Letter”). The Parent Disclosure Letter shall be arranged in numbered and lettered sections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections contained in this Article III, and the disclosure in any section shall be deemed to qualify any other section in this Article III to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the text of such disclosures that such disclosure also qualifies or applies to such other section.

Section 3.01 Organization, Standing and Power. Each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has all corporate or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, required to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and to perform each of its obligations hereunder. Each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub is duly qualified or licensed to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties make such qualification necessary, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or licensed, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.02 Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. Each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub has all requisite corporate or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder, and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Parent Board has adopted resolutions, by unanimous vote of the directors present at a meeting duly called at which a quorum of directors of Parent was present, (i) approving the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and (ii) determining that entering into this Agreement is in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders. As of the date of this Agreement, such resolutions have not been amended or withdrawn. The HHC Board has unanimously adopted resolutions (i) approving the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; (ii) determining that the terms of this Agreement are in the best interests of HHC and Parent, as its sole stockholder; (iii) declaring this Agreement advisable; and (iv) recommending that Parent, as sole stockholder of HHC, adopt this Agreement and directing that this Agreement be submitted to Parent, as sole stockholder of HHC, for adoption. As of the date of this Agreement, such resolutions have not been amended or withdrawn. The Merger Sub Board has unanimously adopted resolutions (i) approving the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; (ii) determining that the terms of this Agreement are in the best interests of Merger Sub and HHC, as its sole stockholder; (iii) declaring this Agreement advisable; and (iv) recommending that HHC, as sole stockholder of Merger Sub, adopt this Agreement and directing that this Agreement be submitted to HHC, as sole stockholder of Merger Sub, for adoption. As of the date of this Agreement, such resolutions have not been amended or withdrawn. Parent, as sole stockholder of HHC, and HHC, as sole stockholder of Merger Sub, have adopted and approved this Agreement. No other corporate proceedings (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any stockholder approval) on the part of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub are necessary to authorize, adopt or approve, as applicable, this Agreement or to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except for the filing of the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL). Each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except, in each case, as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

Section 3.03 No Conflicts; Consents.

(a) The execution and delivery by each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub of this Agreement does not, and the performance by each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or (solely with respect to clause (ii)) give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation, any obligation to make an offer to purchase or redeem any Indebtedness or capital stock or any loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub under, any provision of (i) the governing or organizational documents of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub; (ii) any written contract, lease, sublease, license, indenture, note, bond, agreement, understanding, undertaking, concession, franchise or other instrument (in each case, to the extent legally binding on the parties thereto) (a “Contract”) to which any of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub is a party or by which any of their respective properties or assets is bound; or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 3.03(b), as of the date hereof, any judgment, writ, injunction, award, order or decree (“Judgment”), Law or Permit, in each case, applicable to Parent, HHC or Merger Sub or their respective properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any matters that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(b) No governmental franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations, variances, exemptions, government identification numbers, orders and approvals (each a “Permit” and collectively, the “Permits”), consent, approval, clearance, waiver or order (collectively, with the Permits, the “Consents” and each, a “Consent”) of or from, or registration, declaration, notice or filing made to or with any federal, national, state, municipal, provincial or local, whether domestic or foreign, government or any court of competent jurisdiction, arbitration tribunal, administrative agency, subdivision, or commission or other governmental or regulatory authority or instrumentality, whether domestic, foreign or supranational (a “Governmental Entity”), is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to Parent, HHC or Merger Sub in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or its performance of its obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than (i) (A) compliance with and filings under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), (B) filings in connection with the USFS Permits, and (C) filings in connection with the Canadian Permits, and (ii) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary and appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of the other jurisdictions in which Parent and the Company are qualified to do business and (iii) such other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.07 Merger Sub. HHC is the sole stockholder of Merger Sub. Since its date of incorporation, Merger Sub has not carried on any business nor conducted any operations other than the execution of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and matters ancillary thereto.

Section 3.08 Ownership of Common Stock. None of Parent, HHC, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates has been, at any time during the three years prior to the date hereof, an “interested stockholder” of the Company, as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL. As of the date of this Agreement, none of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub owns any shares of capital stock of the Company or has any rights to acquire any shares of capital stock of the Company (except pursuant to this Agreement).

Section 3.09 Financing. Parent has received (a) a duly executed commitment letter, dated as of April 7, 2017 (including the exhibits, annexes, schedules and amendments thereto) and a Redacted Fee Letter (collectively, the “Debt Commitment Letter”), from the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders have committed, on the terms set forth therein, to lend amounts set forth therein on the Closing Date in order to finance, in part, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Debt Financing”) and (b) the fully

executed commitment letters, each dated as of April 7, 2017 (the “Equity Commitment Letters” and, together with the Debt Commitment Letter, the “Commitment Letters”), from the investors party thereto (collectively, the “Equity Investors”), pursuant to which the Equity Investors named therein have committed, on the terms set forth therein, to invest in Parent the amounts of equity set forth therein (the “Equity Financing”). The Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Financing contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letters, respectively, are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Financing”. Parent has made available to the Company true, accurate and complete copies of the Commitment Letters, each as in effect on the date of this Agreement. As of the date hereof, none of the Commitment Letters has been amended, modified, terminated or withdrawn and each Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, each other party thereto (and the Company has been designated as a third party beneficiary of the Equity Commitment Letters to the extent provided therein), and each Commitment Letter is enforceable in accordance with its terms against Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, each other party thereto, in each case subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. There are no side letters or other agreements relating to the Commitment Letters that could (w) reduce the aggregate amount of Financing below the amount required to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and to pay all related fees and expenses, (x) impose new or additional conditions precedent to the receipt of the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent Closing in any respect, (y) adversely impact the ability of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub to enforce its rights against the Financing Sources and (z) otherwise adversely affect (including with respect to timing, taking into account the expected timing of the Marketing Period) the ability of Parent, HHC or Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated herein. As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent or any of its Affiliates under the Commitment Letters or to the Knowledge of Parent (with respect to any conditions relating to the Company or the Lenders), a failure of any condition to the obligations of the Financing Sources in the Commitment Letters, or otherwise resulting in any portion of the Financing contemplated thereby to be unavailable. Parent has fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Commitment Letters to be paid prior to the date hereof. Assuming the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.03 are satisfied at Closing, the Financing, when funded in accordance with the applicable Commitment Letters on the Closing Date, together with the cash of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, will provide Parent with sufficient immediately available cash funds to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and to pay all related fees and expenses. The Financing is not subject to any conditions to the obligations of the parties under the Commitment Letters to make the full amount of the Financing available to Parent at the Closing other than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter, respectively and, the Financing is not subject to the consummation of any transaction other than the Merger. As of the date hereof, Parent has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing will not be satisfied or that the Financing will not be available to Parent on the Closing Date in the amount necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay all related fees and expenses.

Section 3.10 Guarantees. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, each Guarantor has executed and delivered a Guaranty, and such Guaranty is valid and in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, except (a) to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) that the availability of equitable remedies, including specific performance, is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding thereof may be brought. No event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default on the part of any Guarantor under either Guaranty to which it is a party.

Section 3.11 Solvency of the Surviving Company Following the Merger. As of the Effective Time, assuming (i) the accuracy, in all material respects, of the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement and material compliance by the Company with the covenants contained in this Agreement and (ii) the satisfaction of the conditions to Parent’s obligation to consummate the Merger, or waiver of such conditions, immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration, repayment or refinancing of any Indebtedness in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, if any, and payment of all related fees and expenses, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will be Solvent. For the purposes of this Section 3.11, the term “Solvent,” when used with respect to any Person, means that, as of any date of determination, (a) the amount of the “fair saleable value” (determined on a going concern basis) of the assets of such Person will, as of such date, exceed the value of all “liabilities of such Person, including contingent and other liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable federal laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors; (b) such Person will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged following such date; and (c) such Person will be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature. For purposes of this definition, “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature” means that such Person will be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions or lines of credit, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due.

Each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub acknowledges that it has conducted, to its satisfaction, its own independent investigation of the condition, operations and business of the Company and in making its determination to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, each of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub has relied solely on the results of its own independent investigation and the terms of this Agreement and has not relied directly or indirectly on any materials or information made available to Parent and/or its Representatives by or on behalf of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.04(a), if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives receives a written Alternative Proposal by any Person or “Group” (as such term is defined in Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act) at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, if the Company has not materially breached its obligations under Section 5.04(a), the Company and its Representatives may, prior to (but not after) the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, take the actions set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 5.04(b) if the Company Board (or any committee thereof) has determined, in its good faith judgment (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel), that such Alternative Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties under applicable Law: (i) furnish non-public information to and afford access to the business, employees, officers, contracts, properties, assets, books and records of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the Person or “Group” making such Alternative Proposal in response to such Alternative Proposal, pursuant to the prior execution of (and the Company and/or Company Subsidiaries may enter into) an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement; and (ii) enter into and maintain discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to an Alternative Proposal.

(c) Reasonably promptly (but in no event more than 24 hours) following receipt of any Alternative Proposal or any Inquiry, the Company shall advise Parent in writing of the receipt of such Alternative Proposal or Inquiry, and the terms and conditions of such Alternative Proposal or Inquiry (including, in each case, the identity of the Person or “Group” making any such Alternative Proposal or Inquiry), and the Company shall as reasonably promptly as practicable provide to Parent (i) a copy of such Alternative Proposal or Inquiry, if in writing; or (ii) a summary of the material terms of such Alternative Proposal or Inquiry, if oral. The Company agrees that it shall reasonably promptly provide to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that may be provided (pursuant to Section 5.04(b)) to any other Person or “Group” in connection with any such Alternative Proposal that has not previously been provided to Parent. In addition, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt basis of any material developments regarding the Alternative Proposal or any material change to the terms or status of the Alternative Proposal or Inquiry.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time before, but not after, the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may (i) upon any change, event, development, fact, occurrence or circumstance that affects the business, assets, results of operation or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (other than any Alternative Proposal), that was not known or reasonably foreseeable to the Company as of the date hereof and becomes known prior to the time of the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, (A) withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, or propose publicly to withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation or take any action, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the Company Recommendation, or (B) fail to publicly affirm the Company Recommendation in writing within ten Business Days after receipt of a written request by Parent to provide such affirmation following a publicly known Alternative Proposal (any of the foregoing being an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, recommending against the Merger or approving, endorsing or recommending any Alternative Proposal), and (ii) if the Company has received a Superior Proposal (after taking into account the terms of any revised offer by Parent pursuant to this Section 5.04(d)) and the Company has not materially breached its obligations under Section 5.04(a), terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d) to enter into a definitive written agreement providing for such Superior Proposal simultaneously with the termination of this Agreement, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), if the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that the Company Board may not make an Adverse Recommendation Change or, in the case of a Superior Proposal, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d), unless:

(i) the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least three Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”) of taking such action, which notice shall advise Parent of the circumstances giving rise to the Adverse Recommendation Change, and, in the case of a Superior Proposal, that the Company Board has received a Superior Proposal and shall include a copy of such Superior Proposal (or, where no such copy is available, a description of the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal), including if provided to the Company, copies of all material documentation relating to such Superior Proposal and the identity of the Person making the Superior Proposal (including any proposed financing commitments with respect to such Superior Proposal);

(ii) during the Notice Period, the Company has negotiated, and has caused its Representatives to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Guaranty and the Commitment Letters so that, in the case of a Superior Proposal, such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute (in the judgment of the Company Board) a Superior Proposal, or in cases not involving a Superior Proposal, the failure to make such Adverse Recommendation Change (in the judgment of the Company Board after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel) would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the directors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and

(iii) after the completion of the Notice Period, the Company Board has determined in good faith, after considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to any proposals, amendments or modifications made or agreed to by Parent, if any, and after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that, in the case of a Superior Proposal, such Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal or, in cases not involving a Superior Proposal, that the failure to make such Adverse Recommendation Change continues to be inconsistent with the directors’ exercise of their fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

If during the Notice Period any material revisions are made to the Superior Proposal, the Company shall deliver a new written notice to Parent and shall comply with the requirements of this Section 5.04(d) with respect to such new written notice; provided, however, that for purposes of this sentence, references to the three Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to a two Business Day period.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or the Company Board from issuing a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act with respect to an Alternative Proposal or from making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if the Company Board (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel) concludes that its failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, a factually accurate public statement that describes the Company’s receipt of an Alternative Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto shall not be deemed an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Alternative Proposal” means any bona fide proposal or offer (whether or not in writing), with respect to any (i) merger, consolidation, share exchange, other business combination or similar transaction involving the Company that would result in any Person or “Group” beneficially owning 20% or more of the outstanding equity interests of the Company or any successor or parent company thereto; (ii) sale, contribution or other disposition, directly or indirectly (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, other business combination, partnership, joint venture, asset sale, recapitalization, dividend, distribution, sale of capital stock of or other equity interests in a Company Subsidiary or otherwise) of any business or assets of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries representing 20% or more of the consolidated revenues, net income or assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (iii) issuance, sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, to any Person (or the stockholders of any Person) or “Group” of securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing 20% or more of the voting power of the Company; (iv) transaction in which any Person (or the stockholders of any Person) shall acquire, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership, or the right to acquire beneficial ownership, or formation of any group which beneficially owns or has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of, 20% or more of the Common Stock or securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing 20% or more of the voting power of the Company; or (v) any combination of the foregoing (in each case, other than the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

(ii) “Superior Proposal” means any written bona fide proposal or offer made by a third party or “Group” pursuant to which such third party (or, in a parent-to-parent merger involving such third party, the stockholders of such third party) or “Group” would acquire, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the Common Stock or assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (A) on terms which the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) to be more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of Common Stock than the Merger, taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any changes proposed by Parent to the terms of this Agreement) and (B) the conditions to the consummation of which are all reasonably capable of being satisfied, taking into account all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal.

(iii) “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement” means a confidentiality agreement containing terms no less restrictive in the aggregate to the counterparty than the terms set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood and hereby agreed that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a “standstill” or similar provision that prohibits the counterparty thereto or any of its Affiliates or Representatives from making any Alternative Proposal, acquiring the Company or taking any other similar action); provided, however, that such confidentiality agreement shall not prohibit compliance by the Company with any of the provisions of this Section 5.04.

ARTICLE VI

Additional Agreements

Section 6.01 Preparation of the Information Statement; Stockholder Written Consent.

(a) Immediately after the execution of this Agreement and in lieu of calling a meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the Company shall seek and shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable, and in any event, within 24 hours following the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto (the “Stockholder Consent Delivery Period”), an irrevocable written consent in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto from the holders of record of at least 67.8% of the aggregate voting power of the Common Stock (such written consent, as duly executed and delivered by all such record holders, the “Stockholder Written Consent”). In connection with the Stockholder Written Consent, the Company shall take all actions necessary to comply, and shall comply in all respects, with the DGCL, including Section 228 and Section 262 thereof, the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws. As soon as practicable upon receipt of the Stockholder Written Consent by the corporate secretary of the Company and, in any event, prior to the expiration of the Stockholder Consent Delivery Period, if the Stockholder Written Consent is duly executed and delivered to the Company, the Company will provide Parent with a copy thereof (including by facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission), certified as true and complete by the corporate secretary of the Company.

(b) As reasonably promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (and in any event on or before the date that is 20 Business Days after the date hereof), the Company shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC a written information statement of the type contemplated by Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act containing (i) the information specified in Schedule 14C under the Exchange Act concerning the Stockholder Written Consent, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such information statement, including any amendment or supplement thereto, the “Information Statement”), (ii) the notice of action by written consent required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL and (iii) the notice of availability of appraisal rights and related disclosure required by Section 262 of the DGCL.

The Company shall reasonably promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Information Statement or Proxy Statement and shall provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, and Parent will cooperate in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing or mailing the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company (i) shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, or response (including the proposed final version of the Information Statement or Proxy Statement or response) and (ii) shall consider in good faith all comments reasonably proposed by Parent. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all documents it files with the SEC under this Section 6.01(a) to comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of Law and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c) If at any time prior to the date that is 20 days after the Information Statement is first mailed to the Company’s stockholders, or, in the case of the Proxy Statement, prior to the Effective Time, any change occurs with respect to information supplied by Parent or its Affiliates for inclusion in the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, which is required to be described in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, Parent shall reasonably promptly notify the Company of such event, and Parent and the Company shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment or supplement to the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, and as required by Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the Company’s stockholders. Nothing in this Section 6.01(c) shall limit the obligations of any party under Section 6.01(a).

(d) If at any time prior to the date that is 20 days after the Information Statement is first mailed to the Company’s stockholders, or, in the case of the Proxy Statement, prior to the Effective Time, any event occurs with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary, or any change occurs with respect to other information supplied by the Company for inclusion in the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, which is required to be described in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, the Company shall reasonably promptly notify Parent of such event, and the Company shall as reasonably promptly as practicable file any necessary amendment or supplement to the Information Statement or Proxy Statement, as applicable, with the SEC and, as required by Law, disseminate the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the Company’s stockholders. Nothing in this Section 6.01(d) shall limit the obligations of any party under Section 6.01(a).

(e) Each of the Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Information Statement to be (i) filed with the SEC in definitive form as contemplated by Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act and (ii) mailed to the stockholders of the Company, in each case as reasonably promptly as practicable (but in any event within five Business Days thereafter) after the latest of (A) confirmation from the SEC that it has no further comments on the Information Statement, (B) confirmation from the SEC that the Information Statement is otherwise not to be reviewed or (C) expiration of the 10-day period after filing in the event the SEC does not review the Information Statement. In the event the Stockholder Written Consent is not obtained and Parent does not terminate this Agreement, in each case, as provided in Section 8.01(h), then the Company shall, as reasonably promptly as practicable after the SEC clears the Proxy Statement duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting for the purpose of (i) seeking the Company Stockholder Approval; and (ii) in accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the applicable SEC rules issued thereunder, seeking advisory approval of a proposal to the Company’s stockholders for a non-binding, advisory vote to approve certain compensation that may become payable to the Company’s named executive officers in connection with the completion of the Merger. In connection with the foregoing, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders; and (ii) subject to Section 5.04(d), solicit proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and obtain the Company Stockholder Approval. The Company shall include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, except to the extent that the Company Board shall have made an Adverse Recommendation Change in compliance with Section 5.04(d). The Company agrees that, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms prior thereto, its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.01 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Alternative Proposal or by the making of any Adverse Recommendation Change by the Company Board; provided, however, that if the public announcement of an Adverse Recommendation Change or the delivery of notice by the Company to Parent pursuant to Section 5.04(d)(i) occurs less than 10 Business Days prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting to a date not more than 10 Business Days after the later of such event.

Section 6.02 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent and to the Representatives of Parent reasonable access, upon reasonable advance notice, during the period prior to the Effective Time, to all their respective properties, facilities, books, contracts, commitments, personnel (including outside accountants) and records and, during such period, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish reasonably promptly to Parent (a) to the extent not publicly available, a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws or commission actions, (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as Parent may reasonably request (in each case, in a manner so as to not interfere in any material respect with the normal business operations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary), including financial and operating data; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to permit such access or make such disclosure, to the extent it determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that such disclosure or access would (i) violate the terms of any confidentiality agreement or other Contract with a third party (provided that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the required consent of such third party to such access or disclosure); (ii) result in the loss of any attorney-client privilege (provided that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow for such access or disclosure (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege); or (iii) violate any Law (provided that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide such access or make such disclosure in a manner that does not violate Law). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to provide any access or make any disclosure to Parent pursuant to this Section 6.02 to the extent such access or information is reasonably pertinent to a litigation where the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties. All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subject to the confidentiality agreement, dated as of January 3, 2017, between KSL Capital Partners Management IV, LLC and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

Section 6.03 Efforts to Consummate.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of Parent and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to reasonably promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under this Agreement and applicable Laws to consummate and make effective as reasonably promptly as practicable after the date hereof the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (i) preparing and filing with a Governmental Entity as reasonably promptly as practicable all applications, notices, petitions, filings, ruling requests, and other documents necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to obtain as reasonably promptly as practicable all Consents necessary to be obtained from any Governmental Entity in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Governmental Approvals”) and (ii) as reasonably promptly as practicable taking all steps as may be necessary to obtain all such Governmental Approvals. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees to (A) make an appropriate and complete filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby within 10 Business Days of the date of this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, (B) make all other filings, including with respect to the USFS Permits and Canadian Permits, that are required to be made in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to other Regulatory Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as reasonably promptly as practicable, (C) make all other filings, including with respect to the USFS Permits and Canadian Permits, that are required to be made in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to other Regulatory Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as reasonably promptly as practicable, and (D) not extend any waiting period under the HSR Act, or enter into any agreement with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), the Commissioner or any other Governmental Entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except with the prior written consent of the other party hereto (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Parent and the Company shall supply as reasonably promptly as practicable any additional information or documentation that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Law and use its reasonable best efforts to take all other actions necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act and any other Regulatory Law as soon as possible (including complying with any “second request” for information or similar request from a Governmental Entity pursuant to other Regulatory Laws within no greater than 90 days from its date of issuance).

(b) In connection with the actions referenced in Section 6.03(a) to obtain all Governmental Approvals for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Laws, each of Parent and the Company shall (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any communication, filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party; (ii) keep the other party and/or its counsel promptly informed of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, the FTC, the DOJ, the Commissioner or any other U.S. or other Governmental Entity and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with the FTC, the DOJ, the Commissioner or any other Governmental Entity or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other person, and to the extent permitted by the FTC, the DOJ, the Commissioner or such other Governmental Entity or other person, give the other party and/or its counsel the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences; and (iv) permit the other party and/or its counsel to review in advance any submission, filing or communication (and documents submitted therewith) intended to be given by it to the FTC, the DOJ, the Commissioner or any other Governmental Entity; provided that materials may be redacted to remove references concerning the valuation of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Parent and the Company may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material to be provided to the other under this Section 6.03(b) as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in Sections 6.03(a) and 6.03(b), Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) avoid the entry of, or to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that would restrain, prevent or delay the Closing on or before the End Date, including defending (with sufficient time for resolution in advance of the End Date) through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in any court with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the FTC, the DOJ, the Commissioner or any other applicable Governmental Entity or any private party; and (ii) avoid or eliminate impediments under any Regulatory Law so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as possible (and in any event no later than the End Date), provided, however, that none of the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates, Parent or the Company shall be required to, nor shall the Company, without the prior written consent of Parent, (x) agree to the sale, divestiture or disposition of such businesses, product lines, assets, contractual rights, or relationships of the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates, Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries or (y) otherwise take or commit to take actions that after the Closing would limit the Guarantors’ or any of their Affiliates’ or Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ (including the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) freedom of action with respect to, or its or their ability to operate or retain, one or more of the businesses, product lines or assets of the Guarantors or any of their Affiliates, Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries. Subject to the Parent’s undertakings pursuant to this Section 6.03, the final determination of the appropriate course of action with respect to the actions contemplated in Section 6.03(b) and this Section 6.03(c) shall be made by Parent.

(d) The Company shall give prompt written notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt written notice to the Company, of (i) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event which occurrence or failure to occur has resulted in or would reasonably be expected to result in the failure to satisfy or be able to satisfy any of the conditions specified in Article VII, and such written notice shall specify the condition which has failed or will fail to be satisfied; (ii) any written notice from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent such consent is material to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (iii) any material written notice from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.03(d) shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to Parent or the Company.

(e) The Company acknowledges and agrees that Parent’s taking of any actions contemplated by Section 5.02 shall not be or be deemed a breach of Parent’s obligations under this Section 6.03 (it being acknowledged and understood that neither Section 5.02 nor this Section 6.03(e) shall affect Parent’s obligations with respect to payment of the Regulatory Termination Fee in accordance with Section 8.03 hereof).

(f) The Company and the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Forest Service of the transactions contemplated hereby as the same relate to the Winter Park Resort that is operated by the Company, and shall cooperate in good faith to respond to reasonable requests for information from the Forest Service in connection therewith.

Section 6.04 Company Stock Awards.

(a) Company Stock Options. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of a Company Stock Option, each then outstanding Company Stock Option (whether or not then vested and exercisable) shall terminate and be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive a single lump sum cash payment, equal to (i) the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested, and (B) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price applicable to such shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, less (ii) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “Option Merger Consideration”). If the exercise price applicable to shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Stock Option shall terminate and be canceled in exchange for no consideration. As of the Effective Time, each holder of Company Stock Options shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Option Merger Consideration related to the applicable Company Stock Option payable in accordance with Section 2.01(c).

(b) Company RSUs. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Company RSUs, each then outstanding Company RSU shall become fully vested and shall terminate and be canceled in exchange for the right to receive a single lump sum cash payment, equal to (i) the Merger Consideration, less (ii) any applicable withholding for Taxes (the “RSU Merger Consideration”). As of the Effective Time, each holder of Company RSUs shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the RSU Merger Consideration, payable in accordance with Section 2.01(c).

(c) Termination of Company Stock Plan. As of the Effective Time, the Company Stock Plan shall be terminated, and no further Company Stock Awards or other rights with respect to Common Stock shall be granted thereunder.

(d) Company Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions as it determines in good faith to be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 6.04.

Section 6.05 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Parent agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) and any indemnification or other similar agreements of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms (it being agreed that after the Closing such rights shall be mandatory rather than permissive, if applicable), and Parent shall cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to perform its obligations thereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless each individual who was prior to or is as of the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or who was prior to or is as of the date of this Agreement, or who thereafter commences prior to the Effective Time, serving at the request of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries as a director, officer or employee of another Person (the “Company Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, inquiries, fines and fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including this Agreement and the transactions and actions contemplated hereby)), arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Company Indemnified Party is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as a director, officer or employee of another Person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law. In the event of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, (x) each Company Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding from the Surviving Company within 10 Business Days of receipt by the Surviving Company from the Company Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, if and only to the extent required by the DGCL, the Surviving Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) or any applicable indemnification agreement, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final non-appealable adjudication that such person is not entitled to indemnification and (y) the Surviving Company and such Company Indemnified Party shall cooperate with each other in the defense of any such matter.

(b) For a period of six years from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall either cause to be maintained in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company or its Subsidiaries or provide substitute policies for the Company and its current and former directors and officers who are currently covered by the directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company, in either case, of not less than the existing coverage and having other terms not less favorable, in the aggregate, to the insured persons than the directors’, officers’ and employees’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time (with insurance carriers having at least an “A” rating with A.M. Best with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance), except that in no event shall the Surviving Company be required to pay with respect to such insurance policies in respect of any one policy year more than 300% of the aggregate annual premium most recently paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Amount”), and if the Surviving Company is unable to obtain the insurance required by this Section 6.05(b) it shall obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for each year within such six-year period for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Amount. In lieu of such insurance, prior to the Closing Date the Company may, at its option (following reasonable consultation with Parent), purchase “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance for a period of six years for the Company and its current and former directors, officers and employees who are currently covered by the directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company, such tail insurance to provide coverage in an amount not less than the existing coverage and to have other terms not less favorable to the insured persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance coverage currently maintained by the Company with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time; provided that in no event shall the cost of any such tail insurance exceed the Maximum Amount. The Surviving Company shall maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.05 (i) shall survive consummation of the Merger, (ii) are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified or insured party (including the Company Indemnified Parties), his or her heirs and his or her representatives, and (iii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise.

(d) In the event that the Surviving Company or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, the Surviving Company shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Company assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.05.

Section 6.06 Transaction Litigation. From and after the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, each of the Company and Parent shall promptly notify the other of any actions, suits, claims, litigations, investigations or proceedings commenced or, to any party’s knowledge, threatened against such party or any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors or officers in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to entry into a customary joint defense agreement, the Company shall give Parent the opportunity to consult with the Company and participate in the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against the Company, any Company Subsidiary and/or their respective directors or officers (each, a “Company Party”) relating to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. None of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any Representative of the Company shall compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding any such stockholder litigation, in each case unless Parent shall have consented in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that the Company may compromise, settle or come to an agreement regarding stockholder litigation made or pending against a Company Party, if each of the following conditions are met: (i) the resolution of all such litigation requires payment from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives in an amount not to exceed the amount set forth in Section 6.06 of the Company Disclosure Letter and/or the provision of disclosures to the stockholders of the Company relating to the Merger (which disclosures shall be subject to review and comment by Parent); (ii) the settlement provides for no injunctive relief; (iii) the settlement provides that Parent and its Subsidiaries and Representatives are released from all liability in connection therewith; and (iv) none of Parent, HHC, Merger Sub, the Company, and their respective Subsidiaries and Representatives are required to admit any wrongdoing as part of the settlement.

Section 6.07 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and Merger Sub each shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Common Stock) resulting from the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.08 Public Announcements. Except with respect to any Adverse Recommendation Change or announcement made with respect to any Alternative Proposal, Superior Proposal or related matters in accordance with Section 5.04 or any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, Parent and the Company shall provide an opportunity for the other party to review and comment upon any press release or other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to providing such opportunity to review and comment, except as such party may reasonably conclude may be required by applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system. The Company and Parent agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be in the form heretofore agreed to by the parties. Nothing in this Section 6.08 shall limit the ability of any party hereto to make internal announcements to their respective employees that are consistent in all material respects with the prior public disclosures regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.09 Employment and Company Benefits.

(a) During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date (or, such Company Employee’s shorter period of employment, as the case may be), Parent shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide each Company Employee with (i) a base salary or hourly wage rate that is at least equal to the base salary or hourly wage rate provided to the Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date; (ii) a cash incentive opportunity that is at least equal to the cash incentive opportunity in effect for the Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date (it being understood that Parent will cause the Company to make the applicable payment in respect of such cash incentive opportunity that is earned or accrued in the 12 months after the Closing Date, at the time it would be payable in the ordinary course even if such payment date is after the conclusion of such 12-month period); and (iii) employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date (excluding the benefits in clause (i) and (ii) and any equity incentive, retention, change in control or transaction-based incentive, defined benefit pension, and retiree health and welfare benefits). For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Employee” means any employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary who is employed at the Closing Date and who remains employed with the Surviving Company or any other Affiliate of Parent immediately following the Closing.

(b) Parent shall provide each Company Employee who incurs a termination of employment during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits to which such Company Employee would have been entitled with respect to such termination under the severance policies, practices and guidelines of the Company or any Company Subsidiary as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date or, if greater, the severance benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Parent.Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall this provision modify the terms or conditions of any written severance agreement with a Company Employee that is in effect prior to the Closing, each of which shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, no Company Employee who receives severance in the event of termination pursuant to an employment or severance agreement shall also receive severance under any severance policy, practice or guideline after the Closing Date.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company and Company Subsidiaries and Parent shall reasonably cooperate in good faith in achieving the intended purposes of Section 6.09(c) and Section 6.09(d).

(f) Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, comply with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, or any similar foreign, provincial, state or local Law, with respect to “employment losses” which would constitute a “mass layoff” or “plant closing” (each as defined in such Act) occurring at or after the Effective Time.

(g) Parent shall, or cause the Surviving Company to, honor the terms of each Collective Bargaining Agreement until such Collective Bargaining Agreement otherwise expires pursuant to its terms or is modified by the parties thereto.

(h) No provision of this Agreement shall (i) create any right in any Company Employee or any other Employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to continued employment by or service with Parent or the Company or their respective Affiliates, or preclude the ability of Parent or the Company or their respective Affiliates to terminate the employment of any employee for any reason; (ii) require Parent or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates to continue any particular Company Benefit Plans or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Closing Date (subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.09); or (iii) be treated as an amendment to any Company Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement of Parent or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.

For purposes of this Agreement, “willful breach” means a breach that is a consequence of an act or omission undertaken by the breaching party with the Knowledge that the taking of, or failure to take, such act would, or would reasonably be expected to, cause or constitute a material breach of this Agreement; it being acknowledged and agreed, without limitation, that any failure by any party to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby after the applicable conditions thereto have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, which conditions would be capable of being satisfied at such time) shall constitute a willful breach of this Agreement.

Section 8.03 Fees and Expenses. Except as specifically provided for herein (including Section 6.11(a)), all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not such transactions are consummated.

(a) The Company shall pay to Parent (or its designees) a fee of $28,373,610 (the “Termination Fee”) if:

In no event shall Parent or any of its Affiliates be required to pay the Reverse Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated or deemed terminated by the Company or the Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) (solely to the extent that, at the time of such termination, the condition in Section 7.01(b) shall not have been satisfied) or Section 8.01(b)(ii) (solely to the extent that the Legal Restraint giving rise to such termination right relates to the HSR Act or Competition Act), and at the time of either such termination all of the other conditions set forth in Section 7.01 (other than Section 7.01(b) or Section 7.01(c) (solely to the extent that the Legal Restraint giving rise to such failure relates to the HSR Act, Competition Act or any other antitrust or competition laws), as applicable) and the conditions set forth in Section 7.03 have been satisfied (other than those conditions which by their terms cannot be satisfied until the Closing), then Parent shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to the Company an amount equal to $66,205,091 (the “Regulatory Termination Fee”). The Regulatory Termination Fee shall be paid by wire transfer of same-day funds promptly (but in any event within two Business Days) after the termination of this Agreement. In no event shall Parent or any of its Affiliates be required to pay (i) the Regulatory Termination Fee on more than one occasion or (ii) more than one of the Reverse Termination Fee, the Regulatory Termination Fee and the Permit Termination Fee.

(d) In the event that this Agreement is terminated or deemed terminated by the Company or the Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) (solely to the extent that, at the time of such termination, either of the conditions in Sections 7.03(d) or Section 7.03(e) (collectively, the “Permits Conditions” shall not have been satisfied)) or Section 8.01(b)(ii) (solely to the extent that the Legal Restraint giving rise to such termination right relates to the Permits Conditions), and at the time of either such termination all of the other conditions set forth in Section 7.01 (other than Section 7.01(b) or Section 7.01(c) (solely to the extent that the Legal Restraint giving rise to such failure relates to one or both of the Permits Conditions), as applicable) and the conditions set forth in Section 7.03 have been satisfied (other than those conditions which by their terms cannot be satisfied until the Closing), then Parent shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to the Company an amount equal to $66,205,091 (the “Permit Termination Fee”). The Permit Termination Fee shall be paid by wire transfer of same-day funds promptly (but in any event within two Business Days) after the termination of this Agreement. In no event shall Parent or any of its Affiliates be required to pay (i) the Permit Termination Fee on more than one occasion or (ii) more than one of the Reverse Termination Fee, the Regulatory Termination Fee and the Permit Termination Fee.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties agree that the payment of the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Parent, HHC and Merger Sub with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in the event any such payment becomes due and payable, and, upon payment of the Termination Fee, the Company (and the Company’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders and Representatives) shall have no further liability to Parent, HHC and Merger Sub under this Agreement. In no event shall the Company be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that, if the Reverse Termination Fee or Regulatory Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this Section 8.03, (i) the Company’s receipt of the Reverse Termination Fee or the Regulatory Termination Fee, as applicable, from Parent together with any expense reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations payable by Parent to the Company pursuant to Section 6.11 (“Recoverable Amounts”) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company or any of its Affiliates against Parent, the Financing Sources and any of their Affiliates or any of the former, current, or future general or limited partners, shareholders or equityholders, managers, members, directors, officers, employees, representatives or agents or any former, current or future general or limited partner, direct or indirect shareholder or equityholder, manager, member, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, representative or agent of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Parent Related Parties”) in connection with the termination of this Agreement and the transactions, documents and agreement contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) in no event shall Parent Related Parties be subject to (nor shall the Company or any of its Affiliates or any other Person seek to recover) monetary damages in excess of the Recoverable Amounts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Parent fails to effect the Closing for any reason or no reason or otherwise breaches this Agreement or fails to perform in any manner (in any case, whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise), then except for a Judgment of specific performance prior to the termination of this Agreement as and only to the extent permitted by Section 9.10, the Company’s sole and exclusive remedy against Parent Related Parties for any breach, loss or damage shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive payment of the Recoverable Amounts from Parent only if and solely to the extent payable hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, if Parent fails to effect the Closing for any or no reason or otherwise breaches this Agreement or fails to perform hereunder in any manner (in any case, whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise), in no event shall the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future, direct or indirect, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, Affiliates or assignees seek, or permit to be sought any monetary damages from Parent Related Parties, other than the payment of the Recoverable Amounts from Parent only if and solely to the extent payable hereunder. The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance in accordance with Section 9.10 and the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee or the Regulatory Termination Fee under this Section 8.03, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in (i) a Closing and (ii) the Reverse Termination Fee and/or the Regulatory Termination Fee.

Section 8.04 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties at any time before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that (i) after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there shall be made no amendment that by Law requires further approval by the Company’s stockholders without the further approval of such stockholders, and (ii) except as provided above, no amendment of this Agreement shall be submitted to be approved by the Company’s stockholders unless required by Law. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties. Termination of this Agreement prior to the Effective Time shall not require the approval of the stockholders of either Parent or the Company. With respect to any amendment or modification to Section 8.03(e), this Section 8.04, Section 8.05, Section 9.07, Section 9.08, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.12 or the definition of “Financing Sources” (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment or modification of such provision would modify the substance of any of the foregoing provisions) that is adverse to any Financing Source, the prior written consent of the adversely affected Financing Source shall be required before any such amendment or modification may become effective.

Section 8.05 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (c) waive compliance with any covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement; or (d) waive the satisfaction of any of the conditions contained in this Agreement. No extension or waiver by the Company shall require the approval of the Company’s stockholders unless such approval is required by Law. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights. With respect to any waiver of, or extension to, this Section 8.05, Section 8.03(e), Section 8.04, Section 9.07, Section 9.08, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.12 or the definition of “Financing Sources” (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an extension or waiver of such provision would modify the substance of any of the foregoing provisions) that is adverse to any Financing Source, the prior written consent of the adversely affected Financing Source shall be required before any such extension or waiver may become effective.

Section 9.05 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or such party waives its rights under this Section 9.05 with respect thereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.05, the parties intend that the remedies and limitations thereon (including provisions that, subject to the terms and limitations set forth in Section 8.03, payment of the Reverse Termination Fee be the exclusive remedy for the recipient thereof and the limitation on liabilities of the Parent Related Party) contained in Article VIII and Section 9.10 to be construed as an integral provision of this Agreement and that such remedies and limitations shall not be severable in any manner that increases any Person’s liability or obligations hereunder or under the Financing or either Guaranty.

Section 9.07 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, taken together with the Parent Disclosure Letter, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter and each Guaranty, (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) except for Section 6.04 and Section 6.05, and except for Section 6.11(a) (with respect to any expense reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations), this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties any rights or remedies; provided, that the provisions of this Section 9.07, Section 8.03(e), Section 8.04, Section 8.05, this Section 9.07, Section 9.08, Section 9.10, Section 9.11 and Section 9.12 (in each case as they relate to the Financing Sources) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Financing Sources. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Section 6.09 will not create any third-party beneficiary rights, nor will it be enforceable by any employee or any person representing the interests of employees, nor will anything herein be deemed an amendment to any employee benefit plan. Section 6.09 is solely an agreement between and for the benefit of the Company and Parent and will be enforceable by them. No term of this Agreement will be deemed to create any agreement or contract with any employee or to give any employee the right to be retained in the employment of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates (including, after the Closing, Parent), or to interfere with the Company’s, its Subsidiaries’ or any of their Affiliates’ (including, after the Closing, Parent) right to terminate the employment of any employee at any time.

Section 9.08 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE AND ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER ANY APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto agree that any claim, action or proceeding of any kind or nature, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise involving the Financing Sources in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing (including the transactions contemplated thereby) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

Section 9.09 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that the rights, interests and obligations of Merger Sub may be assigned to another direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent provided, further, that the rights, but not the obligations, of Merger Sub under this Agreement may be collaterally assigned to any agent in connection with the Debt Financing. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.10 Specific Enforcement; Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including the right of a party to cause the other parties to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. It is agreed that the parties are entitled to enforce specifically the performance of terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court referred to in clause (a) below, without proof of actual damages (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach. To the extent any party brings a proceeding to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than proceeding to enforce specifically any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement), the End Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the 10^th Business Day following the resolution of such proceeding or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such proceeding.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 9.10(a) or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, it is explicitly agreed that the Company shall be entitled to the granting of a decree or order of specific performance or other equitable relief of the obligations of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and/or to consummate the Closing only in the event that (i) all conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and Section 7.03 have been satisfied or waived (other than delivery of items to be delivered at the Closing and other than satisfaction of those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing) at the time Section 1.02 contemplated the Closing to occur, (ii) the Debt Financing has been funded or the Financing Sources have confirmed in writing to Parent and Merger Sub that the Debt Financing will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded, in each case at the Closing, and (iii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing to Parent and Merger Sub that if a decree or order of specific performance or other equitable relief is granted and the Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, then it would take all such actions required of it by this Agreement to cause the Closing to occur. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not apply to or otherwise limit the right of the Company to such injunctions, specific performance or other equitable remedies for obligations other than with respect to the obligations of Parent, HHC and Merger Sub to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and the Closing to be consummated. In no event shall the Company or its Subsidiaries be entitled to receive both (x) a grant of specific performance of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 9.10(b) and (y) monetary damages to which it is entitled to pursuant to this Agreement; provided that the grant of specific performance results in a Closing.

(c) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party or its Affiliates against any other party or its Affiliates shall be brought and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; provided, that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then any such legal action or proceeding may be brought in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any other Delaware state court. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in the courts described above in Delaware, other than actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in Delaware as described herein. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and except as otherwise provided for in the Debt Commitment Letter, each party hereto acknowledges and irrevocably agrees (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) (x) that any action or proceeding, whether at law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources arising out of, or relating to, the transactions contemplated hereby, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing (including the transactions contemplated thereby) or the performance of services thereunder or related thereto shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, county of New York, or if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the County of New York (and the appellate courts thereof) and each party hereto submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action or proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court and (y) not to bring or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support anyone else in bringing any such action or proceeding in any other court. Each of the parties further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

Section 9.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER OR ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER, THE DEBT FINANCING OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (INCLUDING, IN EACH CASE, ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION THAT INVOLVES THE FINANCING SOURCES). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

Section 9.12 Non-Recourse. Any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement may only be brought against Persons that are expressly named as parties hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth in this Agreement. Other than the Guarantors under their respective Guarantees, no former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling Persons, stockholders, representatives, members, managers, Affiliates, general or limited partners or assignees of any party hereto, the Guarantors or of any former, current or future direct or indirect equity holder, controlling Person, stockholder, representative, member, manager, general or limited partner, Affiliate, or assignee of any of the foregoing shall have any liability or obligation for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, obligations or liabilities of the parties hereto under this Agreement or of or for any action, suit, arbitration, claim, litigation, investigation, or proceeding based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby (including the breach, termination or failure to consummate such transactions), in each case whether based on contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Laws or otherwise and whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of a party hereto or another Person (including a claim to enforce the Commitment Letters) or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and their respective members, partners, stockholders, agents, attorneys, advisors or representatives that none of the Financing Sources shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) to any such person relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein (including the Debt Financing), waives any rights or claims against any Financing Source in connection with this Agreement (and the transactions contemplated hereby), the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing (including the transactions contemplated thereby), whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and agrees not to commence any action, arbitration, audit hearing, investigation, litigation, petition, grievance, complaint, suit or proceeding against any Financing Source in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder (including relating to the Debt Financing (including the transactions contemplated thereby) or the Debt Commitment Letter). This Section 9.12 is intended to benefit and may be enforced by the Financing Sources and shall be binding on all successor and assigns of the Company.

F. WATER FACILITIES AND WATER RIGHTS.

“Used primarily for operation of the ski area” in relation to a water facility or water right means that the water facility or water right provides significantly more water for operation of the permitted portion of the ski area than for any other use.

“Sufficient quantity of water to operate the ski area” means that under typical conditions, taking into account fluctuations in utilization of the authorized improvements, fluctuations in weather and climate, changes in technology, and other factors deemed appropriate by the holder’s qualified hydrologist or licensed engineer, the holder has sufficient water rights or access to a sufficient quantity of water to operate the permitted facilities, and to provide for the associated activities authorized under the ski area permit in accordance with the approved operating plan.

1. Water Facilities.

a. The term “water facility” means a facility located on NFS lands that diverts withdraws, stores, or distributes water, such as a diversion, ditch, pipeline, reservoir, well, tank, impoundment structure, or similar facility or feature.

b. The term “ski area water facility” means any water facility on NFS lands that is authorized by this permit and used primarily for operation of the ski area authorized by this permit (hereinafter “ski area”).

c. The authorized officer may place conditions, as necessary to protect public property, public safety, cultural resources, and natural resources on NFS lands, on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of any water facility, but only in accordance with applicable law. This clause D-30 does not expand or contract the agency’s authority to place conditions on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of water facilities at issuance or reissuance of the permit, throughout the permit term, or otherwise. The holder must comply with present and future laws, regulations, and other legal requirements in accordance with section I of this permit.

d. Only ski area water facilities may be authorized by this permit.

e. If due to a change (e.g., due to a change in the ownership of the water facility or the associated water rights or a change in the beneficial use, location, or season of use of the water) a ski area water facility will primarily be used for purposes other than operation of the ski area, the authorization for that ski area water facility under this permit shall terminate. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, the holder must obtain a separate special use authorization to operate that water facility or to develop any new water facility on NFS lands that is used primarily for purposes other than operation of the ski area. When such facilities continue to support approved ski area operations at any time of year, the separate special use authorization for these water facilities shall not contain any possessory interest policy based on FSM 2541.32, paragraph 2 (or similar clauses), any waiver provision, or any power of attorney provision. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, if the holder does not obtain a separate special use authorization for these water facilities, the holder shall remove them from NFS lands.

f. This permit does not convey, dispose of, extinguish, or otherwise effect a transfer of any title, rights, or interest of the United States or the holder as a riparian or littoral landowner. The United States and the holder retain all rights, title, and interests they have as riparian or littoral landowners.

2. Water Rights. The term “water right” as used below means a right to use water that is recognized under state law under the prior appropriation doctrine. This permit does not confer any water rights.

B. SKI AREA PERMIT FEE CALCULATION. The annual ski area permit fee (SAPF) due the United States for the activities authorized by this permit shall be calculated using the following formula:

SAPF = (.015 x AGR in bracket 1) + (.025 x AGR in bracket 2) +

(.0275 x AGR in bracket 3) + (.04 x AGR in bracket 4), where:

SAPF = the ski area permit fee for use of NFS lands;

AGR = adjusted gross revenue;

AGR = [(LT + SS) x (proration %)] + XXXX, prorated as applicable;

LT = revenue from sales of alpine and Nordic lift tickets and passes;

SS = revenue from alpine and Nordic ski school operations;

Proration % = the factor used to prorate LT and SS revenue between NFS lands and private land in the ski area; and

XXXX = gross year-round revenue from ancillary facilities located on NFS lands, prorated as applicable.

1. SAPF Formula. The SAPF shall be calculated by summing the products of the amount of the holder's AGR that falls into each of the four revenue brackets multiplied by the applicable percentage rate, as shown in the table below. AGR shall be determined in accordance with clause VI.B.2. The SAPF shall be calculated based on the holder's fiscal year, unless mutually agreed otherwise by the holder and the authorized officer.

The four revenue brackets shall be adjusted annually using the consumer price index (CPI-U) issued in FSH 2709.11, chapter 30. The revenue brackets shall be indexed for the previous calendar year. The holder's AGR for any fiscal year shall not be split into more than one set of indexed brackets. Only the revenue in each bracket shall be updated annually. The percentage rates shall not change.

The revenue brackets and percentages in FSH 2709.11, 38.12, exhibit 01, shall be used as shown in the preceding formula to calculate the SAPF. The revenue brackets for FY2011 through 2016 are shown below.

Revenue Brackets* and Corresponding Percentage Rates

Holder FY	Bracket 1 1.5%	Bracket 2 2.5%	Bracket 3 2.75%	Bracket 4 4%
FY 2011 CPI: 1.012	All revenue below $4,285,000	$4,285,000 to <$21,431,000	$21,431,000 to $71,437,000	All revenue over $71,437,000

FY 2012 CPI: 1.036	All revenue below $4,439,000	$4,439,000 to <$22,203,000	$22,203,000 to $74,009,000	All revenue over $74,009,000

FY 2013 CPI: 1.014	All revenue below $4,501,000	$4,501,000 to <$22,514,000	$22,514,000 to $75,045,000	All revenue over $75,045,000

FY 2014 CPI: 1.020	All revenue below $4,591,000	$4,591,000 to <$22,964,000	$22,964,000 to <$76,546,000	All revenue over $76,546,000

FY2015 CPI: 1.020	All revenue below $4,683,000	$4,683,000 to <$23,423,000	$23,423,000 to $78,077,000	All revenue over $78,077,000

FY2016 CPI: 1.002	All revenue below $4,692,000	$4,692,000 to <$23,470,000	$23,470,000 to $78,233,000	All revenue over $78,233,000

*The Washington Office, Director of Recreation, Heritage, and Volunteer Resources, updates the revenue brackets annually, based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U), Table A which is published monthly at xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx. The CPI is revised and issued annually in section 97. Currently the table is located at xxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/xxx/xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx/xxx/xxxxx.xxx.

The bracket update is accomplished by using the change in the CPI-U for "All Urban Consumers" index for the month of July and is based on the percentage increase or decrease for the preceding calendar year. This index base period is 1982-84=100. For example, the 2011 adjustment uses the change between July 2009 and July 2010, “Not Seasonally Adjusted” values.

2. Calculation of AGR. AGR shall be calculated by summing the year-round revenue from the sale of lift tickets and ski school operations prorated for use of NFS lands and from XXXX, prorated as applicable.

a. The following shall be included in AGR:

(1) Prorated LT. Year-round revenue from sales of alpine and Nordic ski area passes and lift tickets, including revenue generated on private land (such as from lift tickets sold on private land), prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.a and VI.B.3.b;

(2) Prorated SS. Revenue from alpine and Nordic ski school operations, including lessons provided to teach alpine or Nordic skiing or other winter sports activities, such as racing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing, even if the lessons are purchased on private land, prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.a and VI.B.3.b;

(3) XXXX, Prorated As Applicable. Gross year-round revenue from temporary and permanent ancillary facilities, including all the holder's or subholder's lodging, food service, rental shops, parking, and other ancillary operations, located on NFS lands in the permit area, prorated, as applicable, according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.c. Revenue generated from ancillary facilities on private land shall not be included in AGR;

(4) Bartered Goods and Complimentary Lift Tickets. The market price of bartered goods and complimentary lift tickets offered for commercial or other promotional purposes, such as for advertising. The value of bartered goods and complimentary lift tickets offered for commercial or other promotional purposes shall be categorized as LT, SS, or XXXX, as appropriate; and

(5) Special Event Revenue. Revenue from events such as food festivals, foot races, and concerts on NFS lands in the permit area. Special event revenue shall be included in the AGR formula as LT, SS, or XXXX, as applicable. The revenue shall be prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land per clause VI.B.3.

Discriminatory pricing, e.g., pricing based solely on race, religion, sex, national origin, or place of residence, is prohibited under clause III.N or III.O, but if it occurs, the amount that would have been received had discriminatory pricing not occurred shall be included in AGR.

b. The following shall be excluded from AGR:

(1) Revenue from sales of operating equipment;

(2) Refunds;

(3) Rent paid to the holder by subholders or lessees;

(4) Sponsor contributions to special events;

(5) Employee gratuities and employee lift tickets;

(6) Lift tickets and passes provided for public safety or public service purposes (such as for the National Ski Patrol or for volunteers to assist in the Special Olympics);

(7) Discounts; and

(8) Any other goods and services (other than bartered goods and complimentary lift tickets offered for commercial or other promotional purposes) for which the holder receives no money.

3. Proration of Revenue. Alpine and Nordic revenue shall be prorated separately. Prorated revenues shall be added together and summed with XXXX to produce AGR. One or more of the following methods, as appropriate, shall be used to prorate revenue:

a. Alpine revenue shall be prorated using the slope transport feet percentage (STFP), per the direction in FSM 2715.11c, effective in 1992. Only uphill devices (lifts, tows, and tramways) that are fundamental to the winter sports operation (usually those located on both federal and private land) shall be included in the calculation. People movers whose primary purpose is to shuttle people between parking areas or between parking areas and lodges and offices shall not be included.

b. Nordic revenue shall be prorated using the percentage of Nordic trail length on NFS lands to total Nordic trail length.

c. For ancillary facilities that are partially located on NFS lands, the ratio of the facility square footage located on NFS lands to the total facility square footage shall be calculated, and the revenue for ancillary facilities shall be prorated in accordance with this ratio. Special event revenue allocatable to XXXX shall be prorated by the ratio of use on NFS lands to the total use.

4. Absence of AGR. In cases when the holder has no AGR for a given fiscal year, the holder shall pay a land use fee of $2 per acre for NFS lands under permit or a percentage of the appraised value of NFS lands under permit, at the discretion of the authorized officer.

C. SAPF PAYMENTS. Reports and deposits shall be sent or delivered to the collection officer, USDA, Forest Service, at the address furnished by the authorized officer. Checks or money orders shall be made payable to USDA, Forest Service.

1. The holder shall calculate and submit an advance payment which is due by the beginning of the holder's payment cycle. The advance payment shall equal 20 percent of the holder's average SAPF for 3 operating years, when available. When past SAPF information is not available, the advance payment shall equal 20 percent of the SAPF, based on the prior holder's average SAPF or projected AGR. For ski areas not expected to generate AGR for a given payment cycle, advance payment of the SAPF as calculated in clause VI.B.4 shall be made. The advance payment shall be credited toward the total SAPF for the payment cycle.

2. The holder shall report sales, calculate the SAPF due based on a tentative percentage rate, and make interim payments each calendar, except for periods in which no sales take place and the holder has notified the authorized officer that the operation has entered a seasonal shutdown for a specific period. Reports and payments shall be made by the end of the month following the end of each reportable period. Interim payments shall be credited toward the total SAPF for the payment cycle.

3. Within 90 days after the close of the ski area's payment cycle, the holder shall provide a financial statement, including a completed SAPF information form, Form FS-2700-19a, representing the ski area's financial condition at the close of its business year and an annual operating statement reporting the results of operations, including a final payment which includes year-end adjustments for the holder and each subholder for the same period. Any balance that exists may be credited and applied against the next payment due or refunded, at the discretion of the holder.

4. Within 30 days of receipt of a statement from the Forest Service, the holder shall make any additional payment required to ensure that the correct SAPF is paid for the past year's operations.

5. All SAPF calculations and records of sales are subject to review or periodic audit as determined by the authorized officer. Errors in calculation or payment shall be corrected as needed for conformance with those reviews or audits. In accordance with clause VI.E, interest and penalties shall be assessed on additional fees due as a result of reviews or audits.

D. CORRECTION OF ERRORS. Correction of errors includes any action necessary to calculate the holder's sales or slope transport feet percentage or to make any other determination required to calculate SAPFs accurately. For SAPF calculation purposes, an error may include:

1. Misreporting or misrepresentation of amounts;

2. Arithmetical mistakes;

3. Typographical mistakes; or

4. Variation from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), when such variations are inconsistent with the terms of this permit.

Correction of errors shall be made retroactively to the date the error was made or to the previous audit period, whichever is more recent, and past SAPFs shall be adjusted accordingly.

E. FEE PAYMENT ISSUES

1. Crediting of Payments. Payments shall be credited on the date received by the deposit facility, except that if a payment is received on a non-workday, the payment shall not be credited until the next work day.

2. Disputed Fees. Fees are due and payable by the due date. Disputed fees must be paid in full. Adjustments will be made if dictated by settlement terms or an appeal decision.

3. Late Payments

(a) Interest. Pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3717 et seq., interest shall be charged on any fee amount not paid within 30 days from the date it became due. The rate of interest assessed shall be the higher of the Prompt Payment Act rate or the rate of the current value of funds to the Treasury (i.e., the Treasury tax and loan account rate), as prescribed and published annually or quarterly by the Secretary of the Treasury in the Federal Register and the Treasury Fiscal Requirements Manual Bulletins. Interest on the principal shall accrue from the date the fee amount is due.

(b) Administrative Costs. If the account becomes delinquent, administrative costs to cover processing and handling the delinquency shall be assessed.

(c) Penalties. A penalty of 6% per annum shall be assessed on the total amount that is more than 90 days delinquent and shall accrue from the same date on which interest charges begin to accrue.

(d) Termination for Nonpayment. This permit shall terminate without the necessity of prior notice and opportunity to comply when any permit fee payment is 90 calendar days from the due date in arrears. The holder shall be responsible for the delinquent fees, as well as any other costs of restoring the site to its original condition, including hazardous waste cleanup.

4. Administrative Offset and Credit Reporting. Delinquent fees and other charges associated with the permit shall be subject to all rights and remedies afforded the United States pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3711 et seq. and common law. Delinquencies are subject to any or all of the following:

(a) Administrative offset of payments due the holder from the Forest Service.

(b) If in excess of 60 days, referral to the Department of the Treasury for appropriate collection action as provided by 31 U.S.C. 3711(g)(1).

(d) Disclosure to consumer or commercial credit reporting agencies.

F. ACCESS TO RECORDS. For the purpose of administering this permit (including ascertaining that the correct land use fee was paid), the holder shall make all accounting books and supporting records for the authorized operations, as well as those of lessees operating in the permit area, available for review by the Forest Service or other federal agencies authorized to review the Forest Service activities. Review of accounting books and supporting records shall be made at dates convenient to the holder and reviewers. Financial information so obtained shall be kept confidential to the extent permitted by law. The holder shall retain these records and keep them available for review for 5 years after they were generated, unless otherwise approved by the authorized officer in writing.

G. ACCOUNTING RECORDS. The holder shall follow GAAP or other comprehensive bases of accounting acceptable to the Forest Service in recording financial transactions and in reporting results to the authorized officer. When requested by the authorized officer, the holder at its own expense shall have the annual accounting reports audited or prepared by a licensed independent accountant acceptable to the Forest Service. The holder shall require lessees to comply with these same requirements. At a minimum, the holder’s or lessees’ accounting system shall include:

1. Systematic internal controls, including recording by type of business the gross receipts derived from all operations conducted under this permit. Gross receipts should be recorded daily and, if possible, deposited into a bank account without reduction by disbursements. Receipt entries shall be documented by cash-register tapes, sale invoices, rental records, cash accounts from other sources, or some other means.

2. A permanent record of capital investments in facilities (including a depreciation schedule).

3. Generation and maintenance of such other records and accounts as may be specified by the authorized officer.

VII. REVOCATION, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION

A. REVOCATION AND SUSPENSION. The authorized officer may revoke or suspend this permit in whole or in part:

1. For noncompliance with federal, state, or local law.

2. For noncompliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.

3. For abandonment or other failure of the holder to exercise the privileges granted.

4. With the consent of the holder.

5. For specific and compelling reasons in the public interest.

Prior to revocation or suspension, other than immediate suspension under clause VII.C, the authorized officer shall give the holder (and if applicable, the operator) written notice of the grounds for revocation or suspension. In the case of revocation or suspension based on clause VII.A.1, VII.A.2, or VII.A.3, the authorized officer shall give the holder a reasonable period, not to exceed 90 days, to cure any noncompliance.

B. REVOCATION FOR SPECIFIC AND COMPELLING REASONS IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST

The authorized officer may revoke this permit during its term if the Forest Service determines through the process of amending or revising the applicable land management plan that the use and occupancy authorized by this permit should be changed for specific and compelling reasons in the public interest, other than a determination under clause IV.E. that the authorized improvements or the permit area cannot be safely occupied. Prior to revoking the permit under this clause, the authorized officer shall give the holder 90 days written notice to the holder, provided that the authorized officer may prescribe a shorter notice period if justified by the public interest. The Forest Service shall then have the right to purchase the holder’s authorized improvements, remove them or require the holder to relocate or remove them. The Forest Service shall be obligated to pay the lesser of (1) the cost of relocation of the authorized improvements and damages resulting from their relocation that are caused by the Forest Service or (2) the value of the authorized improvements as determined by the Forest Service through an appraisal of the market value of the improvements based on the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (Uniform Standards). Where appropriate under the Uniform Standards, the potential of the improvements to generate income over the remainder of the term of the permit may be considered, but any consideration of future potential for income production shall be limited to the remainder of the permit term. If this amount is fixed by agreement between the authorized officer and the holder, that amount shall be accepted by the holder in full satisfaction of all claims against the United States under this clause. If agreement is not reached, the authorized officer shall determine the amount to be paid, which shall be set forth in the revocation decision. A payment made pursuant to this clause is subject to the availability of appropriations. Nothing in this permit implies that Congress will appropriate funds to cover a deficiency in appropriations.

C. IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION. The authorized officer may immediately suspend this permit in whole or in part when necessary to protect public health or safety or the environment. The suspension decision shall be in writing. The holder may request an on-site review with the authorized officer’s supervisor of the adverse conditions prompting the suspension. The authorized officer’s supervisor shall grant this request within 48 hours. Following the on-site review, the authorized officer’s supervisor shall promptly affirm, modify, or cancel the suspension.

D. APPEALS AND REMEDIES. Written decisions made by the authorized officer relating to administration of this permit are subject to administrative appeal pursuant to 36 CFR Part 214. Revocation or suspension of this permit shall not give rise to any claim for damages by the holder against the Forest Service, other than as provided in clause VII.B.

E. TERMINATION. This permit shall terminate when by its terms a fixed or agreed upon condition, event, or time occurs without any action by the authorized officer. Examples include but are not limited to expiration of the permit by its terms on a specified date and termination upon change of control of the business entity. Termination of this permit is not subject to administrative appeal and shall not give rise to any claim for damages by the holder against the Forest Service.

F. RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES UPON REVOCATION OR TERMINATION WITHOUT RENEWAL. Except as provided in clause VII.B, upon revocation of this permit or termination of this permit without renewal of the authorized use, the authorized officer has the discretion to require the holder to sell or remove all structures and improvements, except those owned by the United States, within a reasonable period prescribed by the authorized officer and to restore the site to the satisfaction of the authorized officer. If the holder fails to sell or remove all structures or improvements within the prescribed period, they shall become the property of the United States and may be sold, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of without any liability to the United States. However, the holder shall remain liable for all costs associated with their removal, including costs of sale and impoundment, cleanup, and restoration of the site.

G. CONTINUATION OF OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES BEYOND EXPIRATION OR REVOCATION. Notwithstanding the termination or revocation of this permit, its terms and conditions shall remain in effect and shall be binding on the holder and the holder’s personal representative, successors, and assignees until all the holder’s obligations and liabilities accruing before or as a result of termination or revocation of this permit have been satisfied.

H. TERMINATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDROELECTRIC POWER OR RECLAMATION PURPOSES. Any lands covered by this permit which have been withdrawn for hydroelectric power under the act of March 3, 1879, or the act of June 25, 1910, or are covered by an application or license governed by the Federal Power Act of June 10, 1920, are subject at any time to use for the development of hydroelectric power. Any lands covered by this permit which have been withdrawn under the Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902, are subject at any time to use for reclamation purposes. This permit is issued with the specific understanding that (1) the use and occupancy authorized by this permit shall not interfere with such development of hydroelectric power or reclamation and that (2) the permit shall terminate after 90 days written notice when, in the judgment of the Federal Power Commission, the lands in question are needed for the development of hydroelectric power or, in the judgment of the Bureau of Reclamation, the lands in question are needed for reclamation purposes. The holder shall have 90 days to remove the authorized improvements. Termination under this clause shall not give rise to any claim by the holder against the Federal Power Commission, the Bureau of Reclamation, the Forest Service, or hydroelectric power licensees for damages, including lost profits and damage to improvements, due to such development of hydroelectric power or reclamation.

VIII. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

A. MEMBERS OF CONGRESS. No member of or delegate to Congress or Resident Commissioner shall benefit from this permit either directly or indirectly, except to the extent the authorized use provides a general benefit to a corporation.
