ARTICLE 3
RENT
3.1 Rent. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant shall pay, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Lease), Rent, together with all applicable sales, use or excise tax thereon now or hereafter applied to rental receipts by the State, (but expressly excluding all federal, state and local income taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore), to Landlord during the Term at the address to which notices to Landlord are to be given or to such other party or to such other address as Landlord may designate from time to time by written notice to Tenant. All payments to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion and all such payments shall, upon receipt by Landlord, be and remain the sole and absolute property of Landlord. If Landlord shall at any time accept any such Rent or other sums after the same shall become due and payable, or any partial payment of Rent, such acceptance shall not excuse a delay upon subsequent occasions, or constitute or be construed as a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder.
3.2 Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay annual base minimum rent (“Minimum Rent”), together with all applicable sales, use or excise tax thereon now or hereafter applied to rental receipts by the State (but expressly excluding all federal, state and local income taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore), to Landlord in equal monthly installments in advance, on the first (1st) Business Day of each Accounting Period; provided, however, that the first three (3) payments of Minimum Rent shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each of the three (3) applicable Accounting Periods (and shall include Minimum Rent and any and all amounts or charges due Landlord through and including the date of such payment).
23
Further, if applicable, the first payment of Minimum Rent and the last payment of Minimum Rent shall be prorated on a per diem basis; provided, however, that for purposes of Minimum Rent, any prorated payment for any partial Accounting Period prior to the first full Accounting Period shall be prorated based upon the installment of Minimum Rent payable for the first full Accounting Period, and any prorated Rent at the end of the Term shall be prorated based upon the installment of Minimum Rent payable for the last full Accounting Period.
3.2.1 Calculation of Initial Term Minimum Rent. Subject to proration as set forth above, Tenant shall pay Minimum Rent during each Accounting Year of the Initial Term of this Lease in amounts calculated in accordance with the formula set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof.
3.2.2 Calculation of Extended Term Minimum Rent. Subject to proration as set forth above, Tenant shall pay Minimum Rent during each Accounting Year of the Extended Term of this Lease in amounts calculated in accordance with the formula set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof.
3.3 Additional Minimum Rent. In addition to and not in lieu of Minimum Rent, Tenant shall pay additional minimum rent (“Additional Minimum Rent”), together with all applicable sales, use or excise tax thereon now or hereafter applied to rental receipts by the State (but expressly excluding all federal, state and local income taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore), to Landlord for each Fiscal Year or portion thereof.
3.3.1 Calculation of Additional Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay Additional Minimum Rent in respect of each Fiscal Year under this Lease in an amount equal to nine percent (9.0%) of Adjusted Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year in excess of the Threshold. Installments of Additional Minimum Rent for each Fiscal Year shall be due and payable in arrears within thirty (30) days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter of the Term hereof (each a “Quarterly Additional Minimum Rent Payment”), based upon Adjusted Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Quarter and an allocation of one quarter of the Threshold amount to each such Fiscal Quarter. Along with each Quarterly Additional Minimum Rent Payment, Tenant shall submit to Landlord an unaudited (but certified by a duly authorized officer of Tenant or Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable) statement showing a detailed breakdown of the calculation of Additional Minimum Rent for such Fiscal Quarter, and for the Fiscal Year to date on a cumulative basis. Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Minimum Rent for the Fiscal Year which includes the date of termination of this Lease shall survive the termination hereof.
3.3.2 Annual Reconciliation of Additional Minimum Rent. Tenant shall, no later than sixty (60) days following the end of each Fiscal Year during the Term hereof, furnish to Landlord for such Fiscal Year a complete statement (the “Annual Operations Statement”) certified true and correct by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant, or of Tenant’s general partner or managing member, if applicable, setting forth, with respect to such Fiscal Year in reasonable detail the Total Facility Revenues, the Total Ticket Revenues and the Adjusted Total Facility Revenues for such Fiscal Year. If the Annual Operations Statement for any Fiscal Year indicates that the aggregate of Quarterly Additional Minimum Rent Payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 3.3.1 exceeds the Additional Minimum Rent due
24
for such Fiscal Year, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment or installments of Minimum Rent falling due (or will pay the amount of such overpayment to Tenant if this Lease shall have terminated other than by reason of Tenant’s default or if Landlord so elects to do so) within ten (10) calendar days after Landlord’s receipt of the Annual Operations Statement. If, on the other hand, the Annual Operations Statement indicates that the aggregate of Quarterly Additional Minimum Rent Payments theretofore made with respect to such Fiscal Year is less than the Additional Minimum Rent due for such Fiscal Year, then Tenant shall pay the deficit amount, to Landlord concurrently with the submission of the Annual Operations Statement. Interest shall accrue on payments pursuant to this paragraph at the Disbursement Rate from the date when first due and payable until the date when the adjusted amount is fully paid in the manner as set forth above, except to the extent of deminimus adjustments of not more than ten percent (10%) of the amount initially paid.
3.3.3 Landlord Audit of Annual Operations Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord at its own expense, except as provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to Tenant given within 365 days after receipt of the applicable Annual Operations Statement, by its accountants or representatives, to commence within such 365-day period an audit of the information set forth in such Annual Operations Statement and, in connection with such audit, to examine all of Tenant’s books and records with respect thereto (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns); provided, however, if Landlord reasonably believes Tenant has intentionally misrepresented Total Facility Revenues, Total Ticket Revenues and/or Adjusted Total Facility Revenues on any such Annual Operations Statement, the said 365-day period shall commence to run on the date Landlord obtains credible evidence that Tenant has intentionally misrepresented Total Facility Revenues, Total Ticket Revenues and/or Adjusted Total Facility Revenues on any such Annual Operations Statement. If Landlord does not commence an audit with such 365 day period, such Annual Operations Statement shall be deemed to be accepted by Landlord as correct. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete any such audit as soon as practicable. If such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional Minimum Rent, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, together with interest at the Disbursement Rate from the date such payment should have been made to the date of payment therefore and immediately reimburse Landlord for the reasonable costs of such audit and examination. If such audit discloses an overpayment of Additional Minimum Rent, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s option, either (a) pay to Tenant the amount of such overpayment, or (b) offset the amount of such overpayment against any amounts of Rent next coming due.
3.4 Additional Charges. In addition to the Minimum Rent and Additional Minimum Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay to the appropriate parties and discharge as and when due and payable hereunder the following which accrue during the Term (collectively the “Additional Charges”):
3.4.1 Taxes and Assessments. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes and assessments required to be paid pursuant to Article 8.
3.4.2 Utility Charges. Tenant shall be liable for and shall promptly pay directly to the utility company all deposits, charges and fees (together with any applicable taxes or assessments thereon) when due for water, gas, electricity, air conditioning, heat, septic, sewer,

refuse collection, telephone and any other utility charges, impact fees, or similar items in connection with the use or occupancy of the Leased Property. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable in any way whatsoever for the quality, quantity, impairment, interruption, stoppage, or other interference with any utility service, including, without limitation, water, air conditioning, heat, gas, electric current for light and power, telephone, or any other utility service provided to or serving the Leased Property unless caused by the grossly negligent or intentional act or omission of Landlord. No interruption, termination or cessation of utility services shall relieve Tenant of its duties and obligations pursuant to this Lease, including, without limitation, its obligation to pay all Rent as and when the same shall be due hereunder unless caused by the grossly negligent or intentional act or omission of Landlord.
3.4.3 Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to Article 9.
3.4.4 Licenses and Permits. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all fees, dues and charges of any kind which are necessary in order to acquire and keep in effect and good standing all Permits required for operation of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms of Article 4, other than the Permits Landlord and Tenant are to cause to be obtained and transferred to Tenant pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof. Tenant shall maintain, in Tenant’s name, those Permits related to the operation of the Leased Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall assign, transfer or otherwise convey all Permits maintained in Tenant’s name to Landlord or Landlord’s designee and Tenant shall have no further obligation thereunder for matters accruing from and after the date of such assignment.
3.4.5 Sales Tax. Simultaneously with each payment of Rent and Additional Charges hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any applicable sales, use, excise or similar or other tax on any such Rent and Additional Charges, whether the same be levied, imposed or assessed by the State or any Governmental Agencies, but specifically excluding any federal, state or local income taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore, imposed on Landlord’s net income. Landlord shall, upon written request by Tenant, provide to Tenant on an annual basis such reasonable information in Landlord’s possession or control as shall be necessary to enable Tenant to pay such tax.
3.4.6 Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations arising in connection with the Leased Property, including, without limitation, Ground Lease Rent, Operating Expenses and any other costs and expenses specifically identified as “Additional Charges” pursuant to this Lease, except those obligations expressly stated not to be an obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Lease.
Except with respect to purchase price paid under the Purchase Agreement and the Landlord’s Acquisition Costs, the sum of which is part of the Adjusted Lease Basis, notwithstanding anything herein, no provision or term of this Lease shall obligate Tenant to perform or assume any obligation of Landlord under the Purchase Agreement and shall not alter, diminish or reduce Landlord’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement.
26
3.4.7 Penalties and Interest. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non payment or late payment of the items referenced in this Section 3.4. Tenant shall prepare and file at its expense, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, all tax returns and other reports in respect of any Additional Charge as may be required by Governmental Agencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4, with respect to any Additional Charge accruing prior to the Effective Date and payable on or after the Effective Date for which Landlord has received a credit from the Seller at Closing, Landlord shall either pay such credited amount when due to the applicable parties or deliver such credited amount to Tenant in which event Tenant shall pay such credited amount to the applicable parties when due.
3.5 Landlord Advances. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease, if Tenant does not pay or discharge all Additional Charges, and provide proof of payment if requested by Landlord prior to delinquency, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to pay such Additional Charges on behalf of Tenant. If Landlord shall make any such expenditure for which Tenant is responsible or liable under this Lease, or if Tenant shall become obligated to Landlord under this Lease for any other sum besides Minimum Rent or Additional Minimum Rent as hereinabove provided, the amount thereof shall be deemed to constitute an “Additional Charge” and shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, together with interest at the Overdue Rate and all applicable sales or other taxes thereon, if any, simultaneously with the next succeeding monthly installment of Minimum Rent or at such other time as may be expressly provided in this Lease for the payment of the same.
3.6 Late Payment of Rent. If Tenant fails to make any payment of Rent on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date such payment is due and payable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an administrative late charge of one percent (1%) of the amount of such payment. In addition, such past due payment shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the date first due until paid. Such late charge and interest shall constitute Additional Rent and shall be due and payable with the next installment of Minimum Rent due hereunder.
3.7 Net Lease. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that both parties intend that this Lease shall be and constitute what is generally referred to in the real estate industry as a “triple net” or “absolute net” lease, such that, Tenant shall be obligated hereunder to pay all costs and expenses incurred with respect to, and associated with, the Leased Property and all personal property thereon and therein and the business operated thereon and therein, including, without limitation, all rent and other charges due and payable under any ground lease or sublease encumbering the Land, all taxes and assessments, utility charges, insurance costs, maintenance costs and routine and customary repair, replacement and restoration expenses (all as more particularly herein provided), together with any and all other assessments, charges, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever related to, or associated with, the Leased Property and the Business operated thereon and therein, other than Landlord’s financing costs and expenses and related debt service; provided, however, that Landlord shall nonetheless be obligated to pay all of Landlord’s federal, state and local income taxes and franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore with respect to the Rent and other amounts received by Landlord under this Lease.

27
otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, it is agreed and intended that Rent payable hereunder by Tenant shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, set off, deduction or defense and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction and that Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent throughout the Term and any applicable Extended Term is absolute and unconditional and the respective obligations and liabilities of Tenant and Landlord hereunder shall in no way be released, discharged or otherwise affected for any reason, including without limitation: (a) any defect in the condition, merchantability, design, quality or fitness for use of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or the failure of the Leased Property to comply with Applicable Laws, including any inability to occupy or use the Leased Property by reason of such non compliance; (b) any damage to, removal, abandonment, salvage, loss, condemnation, theft, scrapping or destruction of or any requisition or taking of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or any environmental condition on the Leased Property or any property in the vicinity of the Leased Property; (c) any restriction, prevention or curtailment of or interference with any use of the Leased Property or any part thereof, including eviction; (d) any defect in title to or rights to the Leased Property or any Lien on such title or rights to the Leased Property; (e) any change, waiver, extension, indulgence or other action or omission or breach in respect of any obligation or liability of or by any Person; (f) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceedings relating to Tenant or any other Person or any action taken with respect to this Lease by any trustee or receiver of Tenant or any other Person or by any court, in any such proceedings; (g) any right or claim that Tenant has or might have against any Person, including, without limitation, Landlord or any vendor, manufacturer or contractor of or for the Leased Property (other than a claim resulting from any willful misconduct or gross negligence of Landlord); (h) any failure on the part of Landlord or any other Person to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Lease, or of any other agreement; (i) any invalidity, unenforceability, rejection or disaffirmance of this Lease by operation of law or otherwise against or by Tenant or any provision hereof; (j) the impossibility of performance by Tenant or Landlord, or both; (k) any action by any court, administrative agency or other Government Agencies; (l) any interference, interruption or cessation in the use, possession or quiet enjoyment of the Leased Property or otherwise; or (m) any other occurrence whatsoever whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, and whether or not Tenant shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, this Lease shall be non-cancelable by Tenant for any reason whatsoever and, except as expressly provided in this Lease Tenant, to the extent now or hereafter permitted by Applicable Laws, waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to quit, terminate or surrender this Lease or to any diminution, abatement or reduction of Rent payable hereunder. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, under no circumstances or conditions shall Landlord be expected or required to make any payment of any kind hereunder or have any obligations with respect to the use, possession, control, maintenance, alteration, rebuilding, replacing, repair, restoration or operation of all or any part of the Leased Property, so long as the Leased Property or any part thereof is subject to this Lease, and Tenant expressly waives the right to perform any such action at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law.
3.8 No Abatement of Rent. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3.2 hereof, no abatement, diminution or reduction (a) of Rent, charges or other compensation, or (b) of Tenant’s other obligations hereunder shall be allowed to Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant, under any circumstances or for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, the lawful exercise by any Person of its rights with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to any of

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under this Lease, or an Event of Default by any tenant under any of the Affiliated Leases shall occur and be continuing, then Landlord may, at its option, and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have hereunder, make use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent, the funding of Additional Charges or other charges in Default, the funding of the Reserve or for the payment of any sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of such Event of Default, or to compensate the landlord under an Affiliated Lease for sums due under such Affiliated Lease as a result of a breach by the applicable Affiliated Tenant thereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event Tenant fails to timely deposit into the Reserve any amounts which are required to be deposited by Tenant pursuant to Section 5.2.2 hereof, then Landlord may apply the Security Deposit to fund such amounts. If Landlord so uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deliver to Landlord cash in the amount equal to any amounts of the Security Deposit so used, applied or retained by Landlord. TENANT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (A) THE SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED AS PREPAID RENT HEREUNDER; B) LANDLORD’S DAMAGES HEREUNDER SHALL NOT BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT OF THE SECURITY DEPOSIT; AND C) LANDLORD HAS ENTERED INTO THIS LEASE IN RELIANCE UPON THE SECURITY DEPOSIT.

Neither Tenant nor any of its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, contractors, guests, or subtenants (if permitted) shall use, generate, manufacture, refine, treat, process, produce, store, deposit, handle, transport, release, or dispose of Hazardous Substances in, on or about the Leased Property or the groundwater thereof, in violation of any federal, state or municipal law, decision, statute, rule, ordinance or regulation currently in existence or hereafter enacted or rendered. Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice of any claim received by Tenant from any person, entity, or Governmental Agencies that a release or disposal of Hazardous Substances has occurred on the Leased Property or the groundwater thereof and shall comply with all Applicable Laws regarding the containment or remediation thereof. Tenant shall not discharge or permit to be discharged into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property any toxic or hazardous sewage or waste other than that which is permitted by Applicable Law or which is normal domestic waste water for the type of business contemplated by this Lease to be conducted by Tenant on, in or from the Leased Property. Any toxic or hazardous sewage or waste which is produced or generated in connection with the use or operation of the Leased Property shall be handled and disposed of as required by and in compliance with all applicable local, state and federal laws, ordinances and rules or regulations or shall be pre treated to the level required by Applicable Laws prior to discharge into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property.
4.3 Continuous Operations. Except during the continuation of a Force Majeure Event, Tenant shall continuously operate the Leased Property in the manner required hereunder, shall maintain sufficient skilled staff and employees, and shall maintain adequate levels and quality of P&E, to operate the Leased Property as herein required at its sole cost and expense throughout the entire Term of this Lease. Tenant shall not enter into any management agreement with respect to the Leased Property unless such management agreement (a) is approved in writing by Landlord, at Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, and (b) contains provisions expressly subordinating the management fees due and payable thereunder to the Rent and
31
Additional Charges and any other fees due and payable under this Lease; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to enter into an arms-length agreement with a Affiliate which provides executive management and shared corporate services under a management agreement, so long as any such agreement expressly subordinates any fees due and payable thereunder to the Rent and Additional Charges and any other fees due and payable under this Lease.
4.4 Compliance With Restrictions, Etc. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall comply in all respects with all Permitted Encumbrances affecting the Leased Property and Tenant shall comply with and perform all of the obligations set forth under the same to the extent that the same are applicable to the Leased Property or to the extent that the same would, if not complied with or performed, impair or prevent the continued use, occupancy and operation of the Leased Property for the purposes set forth in this Lease. Further, in addition to Tenant’s payment obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall pay all sums charged, levied or assessed under any Permitted Encumbrances promptly as the same become due and shall, upon receipt of written request by Landlord, promptly furnish Landlord evidence of payment thereof.
4.5 Conflicting Businesses Prohibited. Landlord and Tenant hereby recognize and acknowledge (a) that the Minimum Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease has been established at the levels specified in this Lease upon the premise and with the expectation that the Minimum Rent may determine the market value of the Leased Property and constitute a material consideration for Landlord’s willingness to execute this Lease and thereby lease and demise the Leased Property to Tenant, and (b) that the operation, management, franchising or ownership by Tenant or an Affiliated Person of Tenant of another facility for the operation of a Theme Park (such other facility being referred to herein as a “Conflicting Business”) within a one hundred fifty (150) mile radius of the Leased Property (the “Proscribed Area”) would tend to result in a decrease in the amount of Total Facility Revenue which would otherwise reasonably be expected to be made upon, within and from the Leased Property, and thereby result in a reduction of the market value of the Leased Property and a reduction in the Rent which would otherwise be received by Landlord pursuant to this Lease in the absence of the operation of a Conflicting Business by Tenant or any such Affiliated Person of Tenant within the Proscribed Area. Accordingly, Tenant on behalf of itself and such Affiliated Persons, agrees that during the Term of this Lease, subject to provisions of this Section 4.5, neither Tenant, nor any Affiliated Person of Tenant shall open, develop, operate, manage, franchise, own, lease or have any other interest in a Conflicting Business within the Proscribed Area without the prior written consent of the Landlord. In the event of a breach of this covenant, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease and retain the Security Deposit, and pursue any other remedy at law available to Landlord, including injunctive relief.
4.6 Standard of Operation. Throughout the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall continuously operate (except during the continuation of a Force Majeure Event) the Leased Property solely for the Permitted Use and in full compliance with the terms hereof in a manner consistent with Theme Park Systems Standards and at the level of operation of other Comparable Theme Parks, including without limitation, the following:
(a) to operate the Leased Property and the Business in a prudent manner and in compliance with Applicable Laws, Accessibility Laws, Legal Requirements and regulations relating thereto consistent with other Comparable Theme Parks and maintain all Permits and any other agreements necessary for the use and operation of the Business;
32
(b) to maintain sufficient P&E and Inventory of types and quantities at the Business to enable Tenant adequately to operate the Business (upon the expiration of this Lease or upon an Event of Default, Tenant shall return, transfer and convey all of Tenant’s right, title and interest, if any, in and to all Inventory to Landlord by xxxx of sale or other appropriate document);
(c) to keep all Leased Improvements and P&E located on the Land or used or useful in connection with the Business in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all needed and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements thereto to keep the same in good operating condition;
(d) to maintain sufficient working capital to operate the Leased Property as herein required (working capital shall mean assets which are reasonably necessary and used for the day to day operation of the Leased Property, including, without limitation, (i) amounts sufficient for the maintenance of change and xxxxx cash funds, amounts deposited in operating bank accounts, receivables, prepaid expenses, and (ii) funds required to (A) maintain Inventory, (B) pay all operating expenses as they become due, less accounts payable and accrued current liabilities), and (C) maintain the Leased Property in good repair, working order and condition;
(e) to operate and use the Leased Property in full compliance with the terms hereof, in a manner consistent with the Theme Park Systems Standards, and at the level of operation of other Comparable Theme Parks, and to operate the Business with all required licenses and permits for such operation, if any;
(f) to follow and materially conform to all of the same operating, employment, marketing, insurance, risk management and management standards and practices (including, without limitation, with respect to days and hours of operation) as provided for under the Theme Park Systems Standards and as employed at other Comparable Theme Parks;
(g) recruit, train and employ appropriate personnel, and, if applicable, retain management services from an Affiliated Person or other qualified operator or service provider, reasonably approved by Landlord, for same; provided that Tenant shall not enter into any agreement with an Affiliated Person or otherwise which purports to obligate the Landlord or which survives the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease without the prior written approval of Landlord. The Agreements with the Affiliated Persons referenced in Exhibit E attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein are deemed approved by Landlord;
(h) provide prompt written notice to Landlord of material or extraordinary developments, lawsuits, violation of any Legal Requirements and fines relating to the use and operation of the Leased Property or the Business; and
33
(i) to operate the Leased Property and Business in a reasonably prudent manner.
Tenant shall further provide, or cause to be provided, all general services, facilities and benefits generally available to other Comparable Theme Parks.
4.7 Standards, Not Control. Landlord and Tenant stipulate and agree that Tenant is obligated to undertake such actions as are commercially reasonable to comply with the Theme Park System Standards and that although Landlord shall have the right to undertake all enforcement rights as provided herein in the event that the required standard of operation is not maintained by Tenant, the means, pricing, policies, and methods used and actions taken to operate the Business are within the sole control and election of Tenant, and are not specified by or under the control of Landlord. Accordingly, Landlord shall have no responsibility for any action taken by Tenant in order to manage or operate the Business.
4.8 Application of Ground Lease. (a) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, Tenant covenants and agrees in favor of the Landlord that:
(i) It shall assume, observe, perform and be bound by all of the terms, conditions, agreements and obligations of the “tenant” under the terms of the Ground Lease from time to time.
(ii) It shall not do or neglect to do any act or thing which would bring about any breach of any of the provisions of the Ground Lease at any time.
(iii) It shall comply with the Permitted Encumbrances and all encumbrances in connection with the Land or the Leased Property.
(iv) All services, utilities, repairs (structural or otherwise), replacements, rebuilding, maintenance, restorations, parking facilities, equipment and access to and from the Premises and the Leased Property and any insurance coverage and any other obligations of the Landlord deriving from the provisions of the Ground Lease will in fact be provided by Tenant or by the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease, and Landlord shall have no obligation during the Term or ever to provide any such services, utilities, repairs (structural or otherwise), replacements, rebuilding, maintenance, restorations, parking facilities, equipment, security services, insurance or access and/or to perform such other obligations. Tenant covenants and agrees to look solely to the Ground Lessor for the furnishing of such services, utilities, repairs (structural or otherwise), replacements, rebuilding, maintenance, restorations, parking facilities, equipment, security services, insurance, access and/or the performance of such other obligations as may be required of the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease. If the Ground Lessor shall default in any of its material obligations to the Landlord with respect to the Leased Property, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, the Landlord, at Landlord’s option and expense, may seek to enforce the Landlord’s rights, or the Tenant on behalf of Landlord, and at the sole cost, risk and expense of Tenant, may attempt to enforce Landlord’s rights against the Ground Lessor. In the event that Tenant shall seek on behalf of Landlord to enforce the Ground Lease, any settlement of such action shall be subject to the written consent and approval of Landlord, and Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless the
34
Landlord from any costs, liability, damages, or expenses suffered or incurred by Landlord in so doing. Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant in connection with Tenant’s efforts to enforce the rights of Landlord under the Ground Lease.
(v) It shall timely pay all Ground Lease Rent in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease.
(b) Landlord agrees that it shall not cause the termination of the Ground Lease prior to the expiration of the initial term and any renewal term, if any, of the Ground Lease as set forth therein; provided, however, that Landlord has the right to pursue any and all remedies available to Landlord against Ground Lessor under the terms of the Ground Lease.
(c) Landlord further agrees that it shall not take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in a default (or event of default) by Landlord, as “tenant”, under the terms of the Ground Lease, subject to any applicable grace and/or cure periods thereunder.
4.9 Survival. As to conditions and uses of Tenant existing or occurring prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, the provisions of this Article 4 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
ARTICLE 5
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
5.1 Tenant’s Obligations.
5.1.1 Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, except as otherwise set forth herein, keep the Leased Property, in good working order and repair in accordance with the Theme Park System Standards, and shall promptly make all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements thereto of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the commencement of the Term and whether or not necessitated by wear and tear, acts of God, obsolescence or defects, latent or otherwise, and shall use all reasonable precautions to prevent damage or injury. All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, consistent with the Theme Park Systems Standards, and in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, by laws, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. Tenant shall further at all times maintain the Leased Property in an aesthetically pleasing manner. Tenant is not obligated to repair or replace any item listed on Schedule 5.1.1 which is part of the Leased Property and which was not in good order and working condition on the Effective Date. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with and perform any maintenance obligations and/or requirements set forth in any and all applicable agreements or permits concerning storm water control or drainage procedures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay for the cost of, or to repair any item comprising a part of the Leased Property and which was not in good order and working condition as of the Effective Date, except those items which are included in its normal and customary maintenance budget and those items which are included within the Reserve, Reserve Expenditures, Unforeseen Reserve Expenditures and Unfunded Reserve Expenditures, to the extent such funds are provided by Landlords and are added to Landlord’s Additional Investment.
35
5.1.2 Tenant shall also, at its sole cost and expense, put, keep, replace and maintain Tenant’s Personal Property in good repair and in good, safe and substantial order, howsoever the necessity or desirability for repairs may occur, and whether or not necessitated by wear, tear, obsolescence or defects. Tenant may at any time and from time to time remove and dispose of any of Tenant’s Personal Property which has become obsolete or unfit for use or which is no longer useful in the operation of the Business. Tenant is not obligated to repair or replace any item of Tenant’s Personal Property listed on Schedule 5.1.2 which was not in good order and working condition on the Effective Date.
5.2 Reserve.
5.2.1 On or before the Effective Date, Tenant shall establish a segregated interest bearing reserve account (the “Reserve”) in a bank designated by Tenant and approved by Landlord. All interest earned on the funds in the Reserve shall be added to and remain a part of the Reserve. Both Tenant and Landlord shall be signatories on the Reserve; provided, however, that only one signature shall be required to withdraw funds and Landlord agrees that so long as there is no uncured Event of Default hereunder, Landlord shall not be required to sign on any checks and Landlord shall not withdraw any funds from such account. During the existence of any uncured Event of Default hereunder, the Tenant signatory party shall no longer be an authorized signatory on the Reserve account. Such account shall be established in Landlord’s name and control for the benefit of Tenant and shall not include or contemplate “overdraft protection” and Tenant shall not request or attempt to draw or draft any funds which are not actually on deposit in such Reserve account. The purpose of the Reserve is to cover the cost of the following, to the extent carried out in accordance with this Lease (collectively, “Reserve Expenditures”):
(a) replacements (including P&E Replacements) and renewals to the Attractions Personal Property and P&E located at the Land or used in connection with the Business (other than food and beverages located at any restaurant operated in connection with the Business).
(b) replacements and renewals, whether routine, non routine or major, to the Leased Property and the Attractions Personal Property, including without limitation, those which are normally capitalized under GAAP such as replacements and renewals to any structures or buildings (including bearing walls, foundations, exterior facades, interior walls, roofs and ceilings), any mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing and vertical transportation elements of the Leased Improvements, any rides, water slides and other attractions equipment, or any part or portion thereof, and all other related equipment, improvements and facilities, and signage, storm drain system, parking lot and related facilities and all other related improvements and facilities, which expenditures Tenant and Landlord reasonably believe should be made for the Leased Property for the following Fiscal Year in order to maintain the Leased Property in accordance with Theme Park System Standards to comply with Legal Requirements or Applicable Laws.
36
(c) maintenance and repairs to the Leased Property resulting from conditions existing as of the Effective Date; provided the same shall not apply to maintenance and repairs necessary or required to the extent exacerbated by Tenant’s use of the Leased Property.
5.2.2 Commencing with the Effective Date and continuing throughout the Term, Tenant shall on the last day of each Accounting Period during the Term, transfer into the Reserve an amount equal to the Applicable Reserve Percentage for such Accounting Period (based upon estimates of Total Facility Revenues if necessary, to be adjusted as soon as Tenant has had an opportunity to confirm actual Total Facility Revenues, but in no event later than seven (7) Business Days after the end of such Accounting Period). At the time Tenant provides Landlord the Annual Operations Statement described in Section 3.3.2, Tenant shall also deliver to Landlord a statement setting forth the total amount of deposits made to and expenditures from the Reserve for the preceding Fiscal Year.
5.2.3 On or before October 31 of each Fiscal Year, Tenant shall prepare an estimate (the “Reserve Estimate”) of Reserve Expenditures anticipated during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall submit such Reserve Estimate to Landlord for its review. Such Reserve Estimate shall reflect by line item the projected budget for Reserve Expenditures for the Leased Property and assumptions on the basis of which such line items were prepared in narrative form if necessary, including separate budget items for all projected expenditures for replacements, substitutions and additions to Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant shall provide to Landlord reasonable additional detail, information and assumptions used in the preparation of the Reserve Estimate as requested by Landlord and shall also submit to Landlord with the Reserve Estimate good faith longer range projections of planned Reserve Expenditures for an additional three (3) Fiscal Years. Tenant shall review the Reserve Estimate with Landlord, and subject to Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall implement such Reserve Estimate for the successive Fiscal Year (during which it shall, if approved by Landlord, be referred to as the “Approved Reserve Estimate”). In addition, Landlord shall have the right to reasonably disapprove any expenditures to be made pursuant to the Reserve Estimate which are not in compliance with Applicable Laws. Further, Landlord’s approval of any expenditure pursuant to the Reserve Estimate shall not be, or be deemed to be, an assumption by Landlord of any liability in connection with the expenditures made. Pending resolution of any dispute, the specific disputed item of the Reserve Estimate shall be suspended and replaced for the Fiscal Year in question by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) that proposed by Tenant for such Fiscal Year or (b) such budget item for the Fiscal Year prior thereto. Subject to the terms of this Section 5.2.3, Tenant shall not deviate from the Approved Reserve Estimate without the prior approval of Landlord, except in the case of Emergency where immediate action is necessary to prevent imminent danger to person or property (an “Emergency”). In such circumstances, Tenant shall use good faith efforts to obtain the approval of Landlord if practicable and if such efforts would not pose a risk to the condition of the Leased Property or harm to any person, and in any event provide notice to Landlord as promptly as possible of such expenditure, the amount of and the reason for the same.
5.2.4 Tenant shall, consistent with the Approved Reserve Estimate, from time to time make Reserve Expenditures from the Reserve as it reasonably deems necessary in accordance with Section 5.2.1 and Section 5.2.3. Tenant shall provide to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after the end of each Accounting Period, an itemized statement setting forth Reserve Expenditures made to date during the Fiscal Year.
37
5.2.5 In the event Reserve Expenditures not otherwise provided for in the Approved Reserve Estimate are required (a) as a result of Legal Requirements, a Force Majeure Event and/or are otherwise required for the continued safe and orderly operation of the Leased Property and/or Attractions Personal Property, (b) due to an emergency threatening the Leased Property and/or Attractions Personal Property, its guests, invitees or employees, or (c) because the continuation of a given condition will subject Tenant or Landlord to civil or criminal liability (“Unforeseen Reserve Expenditures”), Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the Unforeseen Reserve Expenditures and the estimated cost thereof, and Landlord agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of such Unforeseen Reserve Expenditures.
5.2.6 In the event funds in the Reserve shall be insufficient, or are reasonably projected by Tenant to be insufficient for necessary and permitted Reserve Expenditures, including, without limitation, Unforeseen Reserve Expenditures as set forth under Section 5.2.5 hereof (collectively, “Unfunded Reserve Expenditures”), Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the Unfunded Reserve Expenditures and the estimated cost thereof, and Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, shall approve and fund the amount necessary to pay for such Unfunded Reserve Expenditures and the amounts so funded shall constitute part of Landlord’s Additional Investment.
5.2.7 All interest earned on the Reserve shall be added to and become a part thereof, and all P&E Replacements purchased with funds from the Reserve shall be and remain the property of Landlord and shall be treated as Leased Property pursuant to Section 2.1(e). All funds in the Reserve shall be and remain the property of Landlord or the Personal Property Landlord, as applicable, throughout the Term and, following the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and payment in full on all contracts entered into prior to such expiration or termination for work to be done or furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment to be supplied in accordance with this Section 5.2 out of the Reserve, ownership of the Reserve shall be vested in Landlord. It is understood and agreed that the Reserve pursuant to this Lease shall be maintained and used solely in connection with the Leased Property. At the end of each Accounting Period, any amounts remaining in the Reserve shall be carried forward to the next Accounting Period, but Tenant shall not receive a credit for such remaining amounts against the Applicable Reserve Percentage to be deposited by Tenant in such next Accounting Period.
5.2.8 If Landlord wishes to grant a security interest in or create another encumbrance on its interest in the Reserve in connection with a Facility Mortgage, all or any part of the existing or future funds therein, or any general intangible in connection therewith, the instrument granting such security interest or creating such other encumbrance shall expressly provide that such security interest or encumbrance is prior in right to the rights of Tenant with respect to the Reserve as set forth herein and in accordance with the Non-Disturbance Agreement; provided that a default by Landlord under any Facility Mortgage shall not restrict, impede or inhibit the rights of Tenant in and to the Reserve under this Lease so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder.
38
5.2.9 It is understood and agreed that in lieu of the provision set forth in this Lease governing the Reserve, the Reserve shall be maintained and used as set forth in the Pooling Agreement at such times as the Pooling Agreement applies to the Leased Property and the Attractions Personal Property pursuant to its terms.
5.3 Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment. Landlord shall fund an initial Landlord’s Additional Investment in the aggregate amount of $1,249,204.87 (“Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment”) into a separate account established by, and held in the name of, CNL Income Amusement III, LLC (the “Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment Account”) for the purposes set forth in this Section 5.3. Such Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment shall (i) be used solely for the initial capital improvements described and set forth on Schedule 5.3 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference to be made by Tenant no later than June 30, 2007 (the “Initial Capital Assets”), and (ii) constitute a portion of Landlord’s Original Investment and, therefore, shall constitute a portion of the Adjusted Lease Basis. While the Initial Capital Assets have been identified and determined, Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that they must still comply with the terms and conditions of Section 6.3 hereof with respect to the performance of the Initial Capital Assets. All costs and expenses of the Initial Capital Assets shall not be funded from the Reserve in any manner or respect, but shall be funded by Landlord from the Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment Account no more frequently than once per month, within twenty (20) Business Days of Landlord’s receipt of invoices or other reasonably satisfactory evidence of the costs and expenses actually incurred by Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Landlord be obligated to reimburse Tenant for any amounts incurred by Tenant with respect to the Initial Capital Assets in excess of Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment. All improvements and personal property acquired with (or reimbursed for) Landlord’s Initial Additional Investment shall be the property of Landlord and shall be part of the Leased Property.
ARTICLE 6
IMPROVEMENTS, ETC.
6.1 Prohibition. Except for work funded by Reserve Expenditures and Minor Alterations as hereinafter expressly provided in Section 6.2, no portion of the Leased Property shall be demolished, removed or altered by Tenant in any manner whatsoever without the prior written consent and approval of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion unless required in order to comply with Applicable Laws. Tenant shall be entitled and obligated to undertake all alterations to the Leased Property required by any Legal Requirements and, in such event, Tenant shall comply in all material respects with the provisions of Section 6.2 below.
6.2 Permitted Renovations. The activities permitted pursuant to Section 6.2.1 and Section 6.2.2 below shall collectively constitute “Permitted Renovations”.
6.2.1 Minor Alterations. Landlord acknowledges that certain minor alterations and renovations to the Leased Improvements may be undertaken by Tenant from time to time (“Minor Alterations”). Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant shall be entitled to perform such Minor Alterations on or about the Leased Improvements; provided, however, that the cost of each
39
Minor Alteration shall not exceed ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($100,000.00), and the same shall not weaken or impair the structural strength of any buildings or other structural improvements which constitute part of the Leased Improvements, or alter their exterior design or appearance except in a de minimus manner, materially impair the use of any of the service facilities located on the Leased Property, or fundamentally affect the character or suitability of, the Leased Improvements for the Permitted Use above, or materially lessen or impair the value thereof. If Tenant elects to perform any Minor Alterations, the cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant unless the Minor Alteration constitutes an Approved Reserve Estimate, an Unforeseen Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to or Section 5.2.5, an Unfunded Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2.6, or involves the use of insurance proceeds to repair, replace or reconstruct following any damage or destruction.
6.2.2 Additions, Expansions and Structural Alterations. All alterations, additions, expansions and renovations to the Leased Improvements which do not qualify as Minor Alterations shall constitute “Major Alterations.” Except as expressly permitted in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2.1 above, nothing in this Article 6 or elsewhere in this Lease shall be deemed to authorize Tenant to perform any Major Alterations; it being understood that Tenant may do so only with the prior written consent and approval of Landlord, which consent and approval may be withheld in Landlord’s sole opinion and discretion and may be conditioned upon the payment by Tenant to Landlord of all reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in evaluating the same providing additional insurance and such other conditions as Landlord may impose. If Tenant elects to perform any Major Alterations, the cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant unless the Major Alteration constitutes an Approved Reserve Estimate or an Unforeseen Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2.5, an Unfunded Reserve Expenditure which has been approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2.6, or involves the use of insurance proceeds to repair, replace or reconstruct following any damage or destruction.
6.2.3 Bond Requirement for Major Alterations Costing More Than $250,000.00. If the cost of labor and materials of any Major Alteration are reasonably anticipated to exceed the “Bond Threshold Amount” (as hereinafter defined) for the Reserve Estimate Year in question, and the costs of such Major Alteration are to be paid by Tenant from Tenant’s own funds and not from the Reserves, Landlord shall be entitled to condition its consent and approval as provided in Section 6.2.2 upon Tenant giving Landlord reasonable assurances that Tenant has the financial capability and resources to complete them or, at Tenant’s option, Tenant may, in lieu of or in addition to such assurances, provide Landlord with a bond, letter of credit, cash escrow deposit, or other security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to secure the payment for and timely completion of such Major Alteration. The term “Bond Threshold Amount” shall mean the amount of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($250,000.00) for the first Reserve Estimate Year. Thereafter, the then Bond Threshold Amount shall automatically increase each subsequent Reserve Estimate Year by the same percentage as the Index increases each Reserve Estimate Year above the Index in the prior Reserve Estimate Year.
6.3 Conditions to Reserve Expenditures, Initial Capital Assets and Permitted Renovations. In connection with any Reserve Expenditures, Initial Capital Assets and Permitted Renovations, the following conditions shall be met, to wit:
(a) Except in the case of Minor Alterations that do not require the services or expertise of a licensed architect pursuant to Applicable Laws or otherwise, and expenditures under Section 5.2.1 (a) hereof before the commencement of any such work, plans and specifications therefor or a detailed itemization thereof prepared by a licensed architect approved by Landlord or other design professional appropriate under the circumstances approved by Landlord shall be furnished to Landlord for its review and approval. Such approval shall not constitute Landlord’s agreement that the plans and specifications are in compliance with Applicable Laws or an assumption by Landlord of any liability in connection with the renovation work contemplated thereby.
40
(b) To the extent required by any Legal Requirements and Applicable Laws, before the commencement of any such work, Tenant shall obtain the approval thereof by all Governmental Agencies having or claiming jurisdiction of or over the Leased Property, and with any public utility companies having an interest therein. In connection with any such work Tenant shall comply with all Legal Requirements and Applicable Laws, of all other Governmental Agencies having or claiming jurisdiction of or over the Leased Property and of all their respective departments, bureaus and offices, and with the requirements and regulations, if any, of such public utilities, of the insurance underwriting board or insurance inspection bureau having or claiming jurisdiction, or any other body exercising similar functions, and of all insurance companies then writing policies covering the Leased Property or any part thereof.
(c) Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that all such work will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor approved by Landlord, the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease and all governmental requirements.
(d) Landlord shall have the right to inspect any such work at all times during normal working hours using such inspector(s) as it may deem necessary so long as such inspections do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s work (but Landlord shall not thereby assume any responsibility for the proper performance of the work in accordance with the terms of this Lease, nor any liability arising from the improper performance thereof).
(e) All such work shall be performed free of any Liens on Landlord’s fee simple and/or leasehold interest, or Tenant’s leasehold interest, in the Leased Property.
(f) To the extent required by any Legal Requirements or Applicable Laws, upon substantial completion of any such work, Tenant shall procure a certificate of occupancy, certificate of completion or other final approvals, if applicable, from the appropriate Governmental Agencies and provide copies of same to Landlord.
(g) Tenant shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify, pay and save and hold Landlord and its Affiliated Parties harmless from and against and reimburse Landlord for any and all loss, damage, cost, liability, fee and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees based upon service rendered at hourly rates) incurred by or asserted against Landlord which is occasioned by or results, directly or indirectly, from
41
any such work conducted upon the Leased Property; whether or not the same is caused by, or is the fault of Tenant or any agent, employee, manager, contractor, subcontractor, laborer, supplier, materialman or any other third party; but Tenant shall not be obligated to indemnify Landlord from any loss as aforesaid caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
6.4 Salvage. Other than Tenant’s Personal Property, all materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with maintenance and repair performed pursuant to Article 5 and the making of Permitted Renovations pursuant to Article 6 shall be disposed of by Tenant and the net proceeds thereof, if any, shall be deposited in the Reserve.
ARTICLE 7
LANDLORD’S INTEREST NOT SUBJECT TO LIENS
7.1 Liens, Generally. Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create or cause to be imposed, claimed or filed upon the Leased Property, or Tenant’s assets, properties or income or any portion thereof, or upon the interest of Landlord therein, any Lien of any nature whatsoever except upon Landlord’s prior written consent which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. If, because of any act or omission of Tenant, any such Lien shall be imposed, claimed or filed by any party whosoever or whatsoever, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the same to be promptly (and in no event later than thirty (30) days following receipt of notice of such Lien) fully paid and satisfied or otherwise promptly discharged of record (by bonding or otherwise) and Tenant shall indemnify, pay, save and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims and demands whatsoever, and from and against any and all reasonable attorney’s fees, at both trial and all appellate levels, resulting or on account thereof and therefrom. In the event that Tenant shall fail to comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1, Landlord shall have the option, but not the obligation, of paying, satisfying or otherwise discharging (by bonding or otherwise) such Lien and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, upon demand and as Additional Rent, for all sums so paid and for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon, until paid.
7.2 Construction or Mechanics Liens. Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property shall not be subjected to Liens of any nature by reason of Tenant’s construction, alteration, renovation, repair, restoration, replacement or reconstruction of any improvements on or in the Leased Property, or by reason of any other act or omission of Tenant (or of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant) including, but not limited to, construction, mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens. All persons dealing with Tenant are hereby placed on notice that such persons shall not look to Landlord or to Landlord’s credit or assets (including Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property) for payment or satisfaction of any obligations incurred in connection with the construction, alteration, renovation, repair, restoration, replacement or reconstruction thereof by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant has no power, right or authority to subject Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property to any construction, mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien or claim of lien. If a Lien, a claim of lien or an order for the payment of money shall be imposed against the Leased Property on account of work performed, or alleged to have been performed, for or on behalf of Tenant, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after written notice of the imposition of
42
such Lien, claim or order, cause the Leased Property to be released therefrom by the payment of the obligation secured thereby or by furnishing a bond or by any other method prescribed or permitted by law. If a Lien is released, Tenant shall thereupon furnish Landlord with a written instrument of release which has been recorded or filed in the appropriate office of land records of the County in which the Leased Property is located, and otherwise sufficient to establish the release as a matter of record. Before commencing any work relating to alterations, additions, or improvements affecting the Leased Property, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the expected date of commencement thereof. Landlord shall then have the right at any time and from time to time to post and maintain on the Land and Improvements such notices as Landlord reasonably deems necessary to protect the Leased Property and Landlord from mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s liens, or any other Liens. In any event, Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor or materials furnished to or for Tenant at or for use in the Land and Improvements. Tenant shall not permit any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens to be foreclosed against the Leased Property for any labor or material furnished to Tenant or claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or to Tenant’s agents or contractors in connection with work of any character performed or claimed to have been performed on the Land or the Improvements by or at the direction of Tenant, and shall immediately cause the release of any such Liens as provided hereinabove.
7.3 Contest of Liens. Tenant may, at its option, contest the validity of any Lien or claim of lien if Tenant shall have first posted an appropriate and sufficient bond in favor of the claimant or paid the appropriate sum into court, if permitted by and in strict compliance with Applicable Laws, and thereby obtained the release of the Leased Property from such Lien. If judgment is obtained by the claimant under any Lien, Tenant shall pay the same immediately after such judgment shall have become final and the time for appeal therefrom has expired without appeal having been taken. Tenant shall, at its own expense, using counsel reasonably approved by Landlord, diligently defend the interests of Tenant and Landlord in any and all such suits; provided, however, that Landlord may, nonetheless, at its election and expense, engage its own counsel and assert its own defenses, in which event Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and make available to Landlord all information and data which Landlord deems necessary or desirable for such defense.
7.4 Notices of Commencement of Construction. If required by the laws of the State in which the Leased Property is located, prior to commencement by Tenant of any work on the Leased Property which shall have been previously permitted by Landlord as provided in this Lease, Tenant shall record or file a notice of the commencement of such work or similar notice required by Applicable Law (the “Notice of Commencement”) in the land records of the County in which the Leased Property is located, identifying Tenant as the party for whom such work is being performed, stating such other matters as may be required by law and requiring the service of copies of all notices, Liens or claims of lien upon Landlord. Any such Notice of Commencement shall clearly reflect that the interest of Tenant in the Leased Property is that of a leasehold estate and shall also clearly reflect that the interest of Landlord as the fee simple owner of the Leased Property shall not be subject to construction, mechanics or materialmen’s liens on account of the work which is the subject of such Notice of Commencement. A copy of any such Notice of Commencement shall be furnished to and approved by Landlord and its attorneys prior to the recording or filing thereof, as aforesaid.

ARTICLE 8
TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
8.1 Obligation to Pay Taxes and Assessments. Throughout the entire Term, Tenant shall bear, pay and discharge as Additional Charges and not later than the last day on which payment may be made without penalty or interest, any and all taxes, assessments, charges, levies, fees (including, without limitation, license, permit, inspection, authorization and similar fees) and other impositions and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever, extraordinary as well as ordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, and each and every installment thereof which shall or may during or with respect to the Term hereof accrue and be charged, laid, levied, assessed, or imposed upon, or arise in connection with, the use, occupancy, operation or possession of the Leased Property or any part thereof or the Business conducted thereon, including, without limitation, ad valorem real and personal property taxes, all taxes which accrue during the Term and which are charged, laid, levied, assessed or imposed in lieu of or in addition to any of the foregoing by virtue of all present or future laws, ordinances, requirements, orders, directions, rules or regulations of Governmental Agencies, and all assessments and charges which accrue during the Term and which are imposed pursuant to the Permitted Encumbrances, whether or not such Additional Charges become due and payable during or after the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be responsible for (a) federal, state and local income taxes, franchise taxes, capital, estate, succession, inheritance, value added or transfer taxes of Landlord or similar tax or charge or substitutes therefore, or (b) any Additional Charges due and payable after the expiration of the Term to the extent that the same relate and apply interests and benefits accruing to Landlord after the Lease Term. Upon payment, if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly furnish to Landlord satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges. Tenant shall have no right to approve any Facility Mortgage or other documents relating to indebtedness of Landlord.
8.2 Tenant’s Right to Contest Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, after prior written notice to Landlord, to contest at its own expense the amount and validity of any taxes affecting the Leased Property by appropriate proceedings under Applicable Law conducted in good faith and with due diligence and to postpone or defer payment thereof, provided and so long as:
(a) Such proceedings shall operate to suspend the collection of such taxes with respect to the Leased Property;
(b) Neither the Leased Property nor any part thereof would be in immediate danger of being forfeited or lost by reason of such proceedings, postponement or deferment; and
(c) Tenant shall have furnished Landlord with security for payment of the contested taxes which is satisfactory to Landlord, and, in the event that the preconditions set forth in (a) and (b) above are no longer met, Landlord shall have the right to draw upon such security to pay and discharge the taxes in question and any Liens against the Leased Property arising thereunder.
44
8.3 Tax and Insurance Escrow Account. During the existence of any Event of Default hereunder, Landlord shall have the right, by written notice to Tenant effective as of the date of such notice, to require Tenant to pay or cause to be paid into a separate account (the “Tax and Insurance Account”) to be established by Tenant with a lending institution or other third party escrow agent designated by Landlord (which Tax and Insurance Account shall not be removed from such lending institution or other third party escrow agent without the express prior approval of Landlord), and which Landlord may draw upon, a reserve amount sufficient to discharge the obligations of Tenant under Section 8.1 and Article 9 hereof (other than worker’s compensation insurance premiums) with respect to real estate taxes and insurance premiums for the applicable Fiscal Year as and when they become due (such amounts, the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount”). During each month commencing with the first full calendar month following the receipt of said notice from Landlord, Tenant shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Account one twelfth of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount so that as each installment of insurance premiums and real estate taxes becomes due and payable, there are sufficient funds in the Tax and Insurance Account to pay the same. If the amount of such insurance premiums and real estate taxes has not been definitively ascertained by Tenant at the time when any such monthly deposit is to be paid, Landlord shall require payment of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount based upon the amount of premiums and real estate taxes paid for the preceding year, subject to adjustment as and when the amount of such premiums and real estate taxes are ascertained by Tenant. The Tax and Insurance Escrow Amount in the Tax and Insurance Account shall be and constitute additional security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder and shall be subject to Landlord’s security interest therein and shall, if there are sufficient funds in escrow, be used to pay taxes and insurance premiums when due. Landlord and Tenant shall execute such documentation as may be necessary to create and maintain Landlord’s security interest in the Tax and Insurance Account.

ARTICLE 10
CASUALTY
10.1 Restoration and Repair. If during the Term the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof. Either Landlord or Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to the other party within ninety (90) days after such casualty occurs, terminate this Lease, whereupon Landlord shall be entitled to retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage; provided, however, that in the event that the exercise by any Person of any of its rights with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to any Mineral Reservations shall cause damage or destruction to the Leased Property or which actions render the Leased Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall not have the option to terminate this Lease and shall be obligated to proceed with the complete restoration and repair of the Leased Property, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Tenant further expressly acknowledges, understands and agrees
48
that in the event that this Lease is terminated as aforesaid, Landlord may settle any insurance claims and Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, cooperate in any such settlement. If during the Term, the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property shall be destroyed or damaged in whole or in part by fire, windstorm or any other cause whatsoever, but the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property either (a) is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, or (b) is rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use but neither Landlord nor Tenant terminate this Lease in the manner provided above, then, Tenant shall give Landlord immediate Notice thereof and Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2 below, repair, reconstruct and replace the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property, or the portion thereof so destroyed or damaged, at least to the extent of the value and character thereof existing immediately prior to such occurrence and in compliance with all Legal Requirements, including any alterations to the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property required to be made by any Governmental Agencies due to any changes in code or building regulations (which Tenant acknowledges may increase the replacement value of the Leased Property which Tenant will then be required to insure, due to any changes in code or building regulations). All such restoration work shall be started as promptly as practicable and diligently completed, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, using available insurance proceeds. Tenant shall immediately take such action as is necessary to assure that the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property (or any portion thereof), does not constitute a nuisance or otherwise present or constitute a health or safety hazard.
10.2 Escrow and Disbursement of Insurance Proceeds. If this Lease is not otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, then in the event of a casualty resulting in a loss to the Leased Improvements, P&E and/or the Attractions Personal Property in an amount greater than TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($250,000.00) (as determined by an architect or engineer selected by Landlord), the proceeds of all insurance policies maintained by Tenant shall be deposited in Landlord’s name in an escrow account at a bank or other financial institution designated by Landlord, and shall be used by Tenant for the repair, reconstruction or restoration of the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property, as applicable, to its original condition. Tenant shall, at the time of establishment of such escrow account and from time to time thereafter until said work shall have been completed and paid for, furnish Landlord with adequate evidence acceptable to Landlord that at all times the undisbursed portion of the escrowed insurance proceeds is sufficient to pay for the repair, reconstruction or restoration in its entirety. Landlord may, at its option, require, prior to advancement of said escrowed insurance proceeds (a) approval of plans and specifications by an architect or other design professional appropriate under the circumstances and approved by Landlord and Tenant (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (b) general contractors’ estimates, (c) architect’s certificates, (d) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (e) evidence of approval by all Governmental Agencies and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, and (f) such other terms as a Mortgagee or lender of Landlord may reasonably require. The escrowed insurance proceeds shall be disbursed by Landlord, not more than monthly, upon (y) certification of the architect or engineer selected by Landlord and having supervision of the work that such amounts are the amounts paid or payable for the repair, reconstruction or restoration, and (z) submittal by Tenant of a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord). Tenant shall obtain, and make available to Landlord, receipted bills and, upon completion of said work, full and final waivers of lien. In the
49
event of a casualty resulting in a loss payment for the Leased Improvements and/or the Attractions Personal Property in an amount equal to or less than the amount stated above, the proceeds shall be paid to Tenant, and shall be applied towards repair, reconstruction and restoration. Any and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable hereunder shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole opinion and discretion. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Tenant, provided any rights to the same have been waived by the insurer. In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event that sufficient funds are not then reasonably available based on other commitments in the Approved Reserve Estimate to pay the amount of the deductible specified in the applicable insurance policy(ies) out of the Reserve, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall pay for all repairs, reconstruction or alterations up to the full amount of such deductible (and provide evidence of such payment to Landlord by documentation reasonably acceptable to Landlord) before any insurance proceeds are used for repairs, reconstruction or alterations.
10.3 No Abatement of Rent. Unless terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 above, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all Additional Charges as and when required under this Lease shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any casualty to the Leased Property. The provisions of this Article 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any event of casualty involving the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby waives the application of any local or state statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such abatement.
10.4 Business Interruption Insurance. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of the business interruption insurance maintained for the benefit of Tenant shall be paid to Tenant; provided, however, no such payments shall diminish or reduce the insurance payments otherwise payable to or for the benefit of Landlord hereunder. Such business interruption proceeds shall be considered part of the Total Facility Revenues.
10.5 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives to the maximum extent permitted by law, any statutory or common law rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Leased Property and agrees that its rights shall be limited to those set forth in Section 10.1.
10.6 Rights of Mortgagee. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, so long as a Facility Mortgage is in existence, all insurance proceeds with respect to the Leased Property to be paid and disbursed to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall be paid and disbursed in accordance with the loan documents executed in connection with such Facility Mortgage, provided that such Mortgagee agrees in writing with Landlord and Tenant to disburse such proceeds in accordance with this Agreement and as contemplated by the Non-Disturbance Agreement.

ARTICLE 11
CONDEMNATION

If the whole of the Leased Property shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi public use or purpose, by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof, or if a substantial portion of the Leased Property shall be so taken or condemned such that the portion or portions remaining is or are not sufficient and suitable for the continued operation thereof as required herein, so as to effectively render the Leased Property and the Attractions Personal Property Unsuitable for its Permitted Use, then this Lease and the Term hereby granted shall cease and terminate (without prejudice to Landlord’s and Tenant’s respective rights to an award under Section 11.3 below), as of the date on which a final non-appealable order is entered by a court having jurisdiction over such taking or condemnation, and all Rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord up to that date or refunded by Landlord to Tenant if Rent has previously been paid by Tenant beyond that date.
11.2 Partial Condemnation. If a portion of the Leased Property is taken, and the portion or portions remaining can be adapted and used for the conduct of the Business in accordance with the terms of this Lease, such that the Leased Property and the Attractions Personal Property is not effectively rendered Unsuitable for its Permitted Use, then the Tenant shall, utilizing, as reasonably necessary, condemnation proceeds paid to Landlord and the Enchanted Village TRS Corp from the Condemnor, promptly restore the remaining portion or portions thereof to a condition comparable to their condition at the time of such taking or condemnation, less the portion or portions lost by the taking, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with no reduction or abatement of Rent.
11.3 Disbursement of Award. The entire award for the Leased Property and the Attractions Personal Property or the portion or portions thereof so taken shall be apportioned between Landlord and Tenant as follows: (a) if this Lease terminates due to a taking or condemnation, Landlord and Enchanted Village TRS Corp shall be entitled to the entire award; provided, however, that any portion of the award expressly made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, and the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant, and (b) if this Lease does not terminate due to such taking or condemnation, Tenant shall be entitled to the award to the extent required for restoration of the Leased Property and Attractions Personal Property, and Landlord and Enchanted Village TRS Corp shall be entitled to the balance of the award not applied to restoration. In any condemnation proceedings, Landlord, Enchanted Village TRS Corp and Tenant shall each seek its own award in conformity herewith, at its own expense. If this Lease does not terminate due to a taking or condemnation, Tenant shall, with due diligence, restore the remaining portion or portions of the Leased Property and Attractions Personal Property in the manner hereinabove provided. In such event, the proceeds of the award to be applied to restoration shall be deposited with a bank or financial institution designated by Landlord and Enchanted Village TRS Corp as if such award were insurance proceeds, and the amount so deposited will thereafter be treated in the same manner as insurance proceeds are to be treated under Section 10.2 of this Lease until the restoration has been completed and Tenant has been reimbursed for all the costs and expenses thereof. If the award is insufficient to pay for the restoration, Landlord and Enchanted Village TRS Corp shall be
51
responsible for the remaining cost and expense of such restoration. All proceeds in excess of those required for restoration shall be disbursed to Landlord and Enchanted Village TRS Corp upon completion of such restoration.
11.4 No Abatement of Rent. This Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Lease and the Personal Property Lease shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Leased Property. The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased Property and/or the Attractions Personal Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such abatement shall have any application in such case.

(n) If Tenant defaults under the Personal Property Lease and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
(o) If Tenant or any Affiliated Tenant defaults under the Pooling Agreement and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
(p) If PARC 7F or any Affiliate thereof who is a party to the Transition Services Agreement, defaults under the Transition Services Agreement and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
(q) If PARC 7F or any Affiliate thereof who is a party to the Systems License, defaults under the Systems License and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
(r) If any PARC Guarantor defaults under the Limited Rent Guaranty and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
(s) If Tenant or any Affiliated Tenant defaults under any Permitted Business Related Loan and such default is not cured by Tenant or any Affiliated Tenant within any applicable cure or grace period; provided, however, that it shall not be a default hereunder if as a result of a default by Tenant or any Affiliated Tenant under any Permitted Business Related Loan, the applicable Permitted Business Related Loan Lender in its exercise of its rights under such Permitted Business Related Loan (i) becomes a Permitted Third Party Assignee by virtue of its satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 16.1 hereof, with respect to the transfer and assignment of this Lease, or Tenant’s interest in the Leased Property, and (ii) cures any and all then uncured defaults of Tenant hereunder and under all of the other Affiliated Leases.
54
(t) If any Affiliated Tenant shall commit an Event of Default under the applicable Affiliated Lease and such default is not cured within any applicable cure period.
12.2 Landlord Remedies Upon A Tenant Event of Default. If any of the Events of Default hereinabove specified shall occur and any applicable cure period has expired, Landlord, at any time thereafter, shall have, and may exercise, any of the following rights and remedies:
(a) Landlord may, pursuant to written notice thereof to Tenant, immediately terminate this Lease and, peaceably or pursuant to appropriate legal proceedings, reenter, retake and resume possession of the Leased Property for Landlord’s own account without liability for trespass other than Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and, for Tenant’s breach of and default under this Lease, recover immediately from Tenant any and all sums and damages due or in existence at the time of such termination, including, without limitation, (i) all Rent and other sums, charges, payments, costs and expenses agreed and/or required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder prior to such termination, (ii) all costs and expenses of Landlord in connection with the recovery of possession of the Leased Property, including reasonable attorney’s fees based upon services rendered at hourly rates and court costs, (iii) all sums, charges, payments, costs or expenses owed by any Affiliate Tenant under an Affiliated Lease as a result of an Event of Default under such Affiliated Lease and (iv) all reasonable costs and expenses of Landlord in connection with any reletting or attempted reletting of the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, including, without limitation, brokerage fees, advertising costs, reasonable attorney’s fees based upon services rendered at hourly rates based upon service rendered at hourly rates and the cost of any alterations or repairs or tenant improvements which may be reasonably required to so relet the Leased Property, or any part or parts thereof.
(b) Landlord may, pursuant to any prior notice required by law, and without terminating this Lease, peaceably or pursuant to appropriate legal proceedings, reenter, retake and resume possession of the Leased Property for the account of Tenant, make such alterations of and repairs and improvements to the Leased Property as may be reasonably necessary in order to relet the same or any part or parts thereof and, directly or through a qualified management or operating company which may include an Affiliated Person of Landlord, operate and manage the Leased Property, and relet or attempt to relet the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term or terms extending beyond the Term of this Lease), at such rents and upon such other terms and provisions as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. If Landlord takes possession and control of the Leased Property and operates the same, Tenant shall, for so long as Landlord is actively operating the Leased Property, have no obligation to operate the Leased Property but agrees that Landlord, any contract manager or operator, or any new tenant or sublessee may, to the extent permitted by law, operate the Business under Tenant’s Permits, if any, to the extent allowable by law until same are issued in the name of the Landlord or the new manager/operator or tenant or sublessee, as applicable. In addition, Tenant will reasonably cooperate with Landlord in transferring, to the extent transferable, any of Tenant’s Permits which Landlord determines would be
55
necessary or appropriate to continue to operate the Leased Property for its Permitted Use. If Landlord relets or attempts to relet the Leased Property, or obtains a contract manager or operator for the Leased Property, Landlord shall at its sole discretion determine the terms and provisions of any new lease or sublease, or management or operating agreement, and whether or not a particular proposed manager or operator, or new tenant or sublessee, is acceptable to Landlord. Upon any such reletting, or the operation of the Leased Property by a contract manager or operator, all rents or incomes received by the Landlord from such reletting or otherwise from the operation of the Leased Property shall be applied, (i) first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of recovering possession of the Leased Property, (ii) second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting and or operation, including brokerage fees, advertising costs, reasonable attorney’s fees based upon service rendered at hourly rates, a management fee of between five percent (5%) and ten percent (10%) of the Total Facility Revenues, and the cost of any alterations and repairs reasonably required for such reletting or operation of the Leased Property; (iii) third, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than Rent, due hereunder from Tenant to the Landlord, (iv) fourth, to the payment of all Rent and other sums due and unpaid hereunder, and (v) fifth, the residue, if any, shall be held by the Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. If the rents received from such reletting or net income from the operation of the Leased Property during any period shall be less than the Rents and Additional Charges required to be paid during that period by the Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall promptly pay any such deficiency to the Landlord and failing the prompt payment thereof by Tenant to Landlord, Landlord shall immediately be entitled to institute legal proceedings for the recovery and collection of the same. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid at the time each payment of Minimum Rent, Additional Minimum Rent or any other sum shall otherwise become due under this Lease, or, at the option of Landlord, at the end of the Term of this Lease. Landlord shall, in addition, be immediately entitled to xxx for and otherwise recover from Tenant any other damages occasioned by or resulting from any abandonment of the Leased Property or other breach of or default under this Lease other than a default in the payment of Rent. No such reentry, retaking or resumption of possession of the Leased Property by the Landlord for the account of Tenant shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention shall be given to the Tenant or unless the termination of this Lease be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such re entry and reletting or attempted reletting of the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof for the account of Tenant without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter, upon written notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available to Landlord for Tenant’s previous breach of or default under this Lease.
(c) Landlord may, without reentering, retaking or resuming possession of the Leased Property, xxx for all Rent and all other sums, charges, payments, costs and expenses due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder (discounted to present value) either: (i) as they become due under this Lease, taking into account that Tenant’s right and option to pay the Rent hereunder on a monthly basis in any particular Fiscal Year is conditioned upon the absence of a Default on Tenant’s part in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, or (ii) at Landlord’s option, accelerate the maturity and due date of the whole
56
or any part of the Rent for the entire then remaining unexpired balance of the Term of this Lease, as well as all other sums, charges, payments, costs and expenses required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation, damages for breach or default of Tenant’s obligations hereunder in existence at the time of such acceleration, such that all sums due and payable under this Lease shall, following such acceleration, be treated as being and, in fact, be due and payable in advance as of the date of such acceleration. Landlord may then proceed to recover and collect all such unpaid Rent and other sums so sued for from Tenant by distress, levy, execution or otherwise. Regardless of which of the foregoing alternative remedies is chosen by Landlord under this subparagraph (c), Landlord shall not be required, except as may be required by Applicable Laws, to relet the Leased Property nor exercise any other right granted to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, nor, except as may be required by Applicable Laws, shall Landlord be under any obligation to minimize or mitigate Landlord’s damages or Tenant’s loss as a result of Tenant’s breach of or default under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following such time as Landlord may obtain possession of the Leased Property, Landlord or its successor Landlord at the time of any Lease termination, shall continue to make the Leased Property available for lease, on an “as is” basis, and shall turn over the net proceeds thereof to Tenant to the extent actually received by Landlord in respect of any time period for which Landlord shall have received the full amount of Rent payable with respect thereto (albeit perhaps on a basis reasonably discounted for the time value of money or present value basis).
(d) Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, provided, however, that Tenant and the PARC Guarantors shall be released from liability for any and all of their respective obligations under this Lease, the Pooling Agreement and the Lease Related Documents after the date of such assignment, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof and take possession of (i) any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, (ii) Tenant’s books and records necessary to operate the Leased Property, and (iii) the Reserve Account, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same by public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prevented by law. Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale. The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such Property (including reasonable attorneys’ fees based upon services rendered at hourly rates) shall be credited against Rent which is due hereunder.
(e) Tenant acknowledges that one of the rights and remedies available to Landlord under Applicable Law is to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver to collect the rents, issues, profits and income of the Leased Property and to manage the operation of the Leased Property. Therefore, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may petition any appropriate court for appointment of a receiver to manage the operation of the Leased
57
Property (or any portion thereof), to collect and disburse all rents, issues, profits and income generated thereby. The receiver shall be entitled to a reasonable fee for his services as receiver. All such fees and other expenses of the receivership estate shall be payable as Additional Charges under this Lease. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Tenant hereby irrevocably stipulates to the appointment of a receiver under such circumstances and for such purposes and agrees not to contest such appointment.
(f) In addition to the remedies hereinabove specified and enumerated, Landlord shall have and may exercise the right to invoke any other remedies allowed at law or in equity as if the remedies of reentry, unlawful detainer proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided. Accordingly, the mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from having or exercising any other remedy at law or in equity. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as precluding the Landlord from having or exercising such lawful remedies as may be and become necessary in order to preserve the Landlord’s right or the interest of the Landlord in the Leased Property and in this Lease, even before the expiration of any notice periods provided for in this Lease, if under the particular circumstances then existing the allowance of such notice periods will prejudice or will endanger the rights and estate of the Landlord in this Lease and in the Leased Property. In addition, any provision of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, no provision of this Lease shall delay or otherwise limit Landlord’s right to seek injunctive relief or Tenant’s obligation to comply with any such injunctive relief.
12.3 Landlord Event of Default; Tenant Remedies. It shall be an Event of Default by Landlord hereunder and a breach of this Lease if Landlord shall fail to perform any obligation of Landlord expressly contemplated in this Lease, and such failure shall continue for a period of sixty (60) days after written notice thereof from Tenant; provided, however, if such failure is incapable of cure by Landlord within such sixty (60) days after Landlord’s diligent and continuous efforts to cure the same, Landlord shall have up to an additional period of sixty (60) days for a total of one hundred twenty (120) days to cure the same. Tenant shall have, as its sole and exclusive remedy for any such Event of Default by Landlord hereunder, the right to either (i) bring and pursue an action for specific performance against Landlord with respect to such Event of Default, in which event, Tenant shall specifically waive any right to pursue a claim for damages, or (ii) bring and pursue an action for actual damages caused by Landlord’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. ANYTHING HEREIN CONTAINED, AND ANYTHING AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING, TENANT HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST LANDLORD ARISING UNDER OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS LEASE, ANY RIGHT, POWER OR PRIVILEGE TENANT MAY HAVE TO TERMINATE THIS LEASE OR TO CLAIM OR RECEIVE ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER SPECIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS AND ANY CLAIMS FOR LOSS OF FUTURE REVENUES FROM LOSS OF USE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY), AND TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE REMEDIES HEREIN PROVIDED WILL IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES BE ADEQUATE. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that to the extent the provisions of this Section 12.3 conflict with any Applicable Laws, the terms and provisions of this Section 12.3 shall control.
58
12.4 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Lease in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State where the Leased Property is located.
12.5 Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Landlord may, after notice to Tenant and Tenant’s failure to cure such Event of Default within the applicable cure period, but shall have no obligation to, perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If, at any time and by reason of such Event of Default, Landlord is compelled to pay, or elects to pay, any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or is compelled to incur any expense in the enforcement of its rights hereunder or otherwise, such sum or sums, together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be repaid to Landlord by Tenant promptly when billed therefor, and Landlord shall have all the same rights and remedies in respect thereof as Landlord has in respect of the rents herein reserved.
12.6 Landlord’s Security Interest and Lien.
12.6.1 Landlord shall have, and Tenant hereby grants, a security interest (a) in Tenant’s books and records necessary to operate the Leased Property, and (b) the Reserve Account. The security interest is granted for the purpose of securing the payment of Rent, Additional Charges, assessments, penalties and damages herein covenanted to be paid by Tenant. Upon an Event of Default, Landlord shall have all remedies available under the Uniform Commercial Code enacted in the State where the Leased Property are located including, but not limited to, the right to take possession of the above-mentioned property and dispose of it by sale in a commercially reasonable manner. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to file such financing statements as Landlord deems necessary and appropriate in such jurisdictions and Landlord deems necessary and appropriate for the purpose of serving notice to third parties of the security interest herein granted.
12.6.2 Landlord shall have at all times during the Term of this Lease, a valid lien for all rents and other sums of money becoming due hereunder from Tenant, upon all goods, accounts, wares, merchandise, inventory, furniture, fixtures, equipment, vehicles and other personal property and effects of Tenant situated in or upon the Leased Property, excluding Tenant’s Personal Property, and such property shall not be removed therefrom except in accordance with the terms of this Lease without the approval and consent of Landlord until all arrearages in Rent as well as any and all other sums of money then due to Landlord hereunder shall first have been paid and discharged in full. Alternatively, the lien hereby granted may be foreclosed in the manner and form provided by law for foreclosure of security interests or in any other manner and form provided by law. The statutory lien for Rent, if any, is not hereby waived and the express contractual lien herein granted is in addition thereto and supplementary thereto. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord from time to time during the Term of this Lease such financing statements as may be required by Landlord in order to perfect the Landlord’s lien provided herein or granted or created by state law. Tenant further agrees that during the continuance of an Event of Default, Tenant shall not make any distributions to its shareholders,
59
partners, members or other owners and any such distributions shall be considered and deemed to be fraudulent and preferential and subordinate to Landlord’s claim for Rent and other sums hereunder.
12.7 Collateral Assignment. As additional security for Tenant’s performance of its obligations hereunder, Tenant hereby collaterally assigns to Landlord, to the extent assignable, all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in Permits and Operating Contracts and Information Technology and Software held by Tenant and necessary and used to operate the Leased Property for its Permitted Use. Such collateral assignment shall become an outright assignment and shall be effective upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease by Landlord as a result of an Event of Default by Tenant without the need to execute any additional instruments evidencing such assignment. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that any third party may rely upon a written statement by Landlord as to Tenant’s Event of Default and the termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord, upon the termination of this Lease by Landlord as a result of a Tenant Event of Default, such instruments evidencing the assignment contemplated hereby as may be reasonably required by Landlord.
ARTICLE 13
HOLDING OVER
If Tenant or any other person or party shall remain in possession of the Leased Property or any part thereof following the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease without an agreement in writing between Landlord and Tenant with respect thereto, the person or party remaining in possession shall be deemed to be a tenant at sufferance, and during any such holdover, the Rent payable under this Lease by such tenant at sufferance shall be double the rate or rates in effect immediately prior to the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease. In no event, however, shall such holding over be deemed or construed to be or constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease.
ARTICLE 14
LIABILITY OF LANDLORD; INDEMNIFICATION
14.1 Liability of Landlord. Except as set forth in this Lease, Landlord and its Affiliates shall not be liable to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, customers or clients for any damage, injury, loss, compensation or claim, including, but not limited to, claims for the interruption of or loss to Tenant’s business, based on, arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever (other than Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including, but not limited to: (a) repairs to any portion of the Leased Property; (b) interruption in Tenant’s use of the Leased Property; (c) any accident or damage resulting from the use or operation (by Landlord, Tenant or any other person or persons) of any equipment within the Leased Property, including without limitation, heating, cooling, electrical or plumbing equipment or apparatus; (d) the termination of this Lease by reason of the condemnation or destruction of the Leased Property in accordance with the provisions of this Lease; (e) any fire, robbery, theft, mysterious disappearance or other casualty; (f) the actions of any other person or persons other than an Affiliated Person of Landlord; (g) any leakage or seepage in or from any part or portion of the
60
Leased Property, whether from water, rain or other precipitation that may leak into, or flow from, any part of the Leased Property, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Leased Improvements; (h) any condition relating to the Environment; and (i) the existence of any Hazardous Substance located at, on or in the Land. Any goods, property or personal effects stored or placed by the Tenant or its employees in or about the Leased Property including Tenant’s Personal Property, shall be at the sole risk of the Tenant.
14.2 Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall defend, indemnify, pay, save and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, actions, fines, penalties, claims, demands, costs and expenses of every kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred by Landlord, arising directly or indirectly from: (a) any failure by Tenant to perform any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease, on Tenant’s part to be performed including but not limited to the payment of any fee, cost or expense which Tenant is obligated to pay and discharge hereunder, (b) any accident, injury or damage which shall happen at, in or upon the Leased Property, however occurring; (c) any matter or thing growing out of the condition, occupation, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or operation by any person of the Leased Property, or any part thereof, or the operation of the business contemplated by this Lease to be conducted thereon, thereat, therein, or therefrom arising during the Term; (d) any failure of Tenant to comply with the Legal Requirements as provided for or required under this Agreement; (e) any discharge of any Hazardous Substance or contamination of the Leased Property or the ground water thereof, arising during the Term, whether caused by of Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors; (f) any discharge of toxic or hazardous sewage or waste materials from the Leased Property into any septic facility or sanitary sewer system serving the Leased Property arising on or after the date Tenant takes possession of the Leased Property, whether by Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors; or (g) any other act or omission of Tenant or Tenant Affiliate, or any of their employees, agents, invitees, customers, licensees or contractors. Notwithstanding anything set forth above in this Section 14.2, Tenant shall not be liable for or be obligated to defend, indemnify, pay, save and hold Landlord harmless from and against any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, actions, fines, penalties, claims, demands, costs or expenses of any kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, resulting from Landlord’s failure to materially perform any terms, conditions or covenants of this Lease, on Landlord’s part to be performed or its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Tenant’s indemnity obligations under this Article and elsewhere in this Lease arising prior to the termination or permitted assignment of this Lease shall survive any such termination or assignment.
14.3 Notice of Claim or Suit. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any claim, action, proceeding or suit instituted or threatened against Tenant or Landlord of which Tenant receives notice or of which Tenant acquires knowledge. In the event Landlord is made a party to any action for damages or other relief against which Tenant has indemnified Landlord, as aforesaid, Tenant shall at its own expense using counsel reasonably approved by Landlord, diligently defend Landlord, pay all costs in such litigation or, at Landlord’s option and expense, Landlord may nonetheless engage its own counsel in connection with its own defense or settlement of said litigation in which event Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and make available to Landlord all information and data which Landlord deems necessary or desirable for
61
such defense. In the event Landlord is required to secure its own counsel due to a conflict in the interests of Tenant and Landlord in any action for damages or other relief against which Tenant has indemnified Landlord, Tenant shall pay all of Landlord’s reasonable costs in such litigation. Tenant is required to approve a settlement agreement for any such claim or suit as requested by Landlord and which is consistent with applicable insurance company requirements, unless Tenant posts a bond or other security acceptable to Landlord for any potentially uninsured liability amounts.
14.4 Limitation on Liability. In the event Tenant is awarded a money judgment against Landlord, Tenant’s sole recourse for satisfaction of such judgment shall be limited to execution against the Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property. In no event shall any partner, member, officer, director, stockholder or shareholder of Landlord or any partner thereof or Affiliated Person or Subsidiary thereof, be personally liable for the obligations of Landlord hereunder.
ARTICLE 15
REIT AND UBTI REQUIREMENTS
Tenant understands that, in order for Landlord to qualify as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Code, the following requirements must be satisfied. The parties intend that amounts to be paid by Tenant hereunder and received or accrued, directly or indirectly, by Landlord with respect to the Leased Property (including any rents attributable to personal property that is leased with respect thereto) will qualify as “rents from real property” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(d) and Section 512(b)(3)), and that neither party will take, or permit to take, any action that would cause any amount received by the Landlord under this Lease to fail to qualify as such under the Code. Consistent with this intent, the parties agree that:
15.1 Limitations on Rents Attributable to Personal Property. “Rents attributable to any personal property” leased to the Tenant cannot exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the total rent received or accrued by Landlord under this Lease for the Fiscal Year of the Landlord. In addition, Landlord’s customary practice is to limit “rents attributable to any personal property” to twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the total rent received or accrued by Landlord pursuant to any lease agreement. Consistent therewith, the average of the fair market values of the personal property (within the meaning set forth in Section 1.512(b) 1(c)(3)(ii) of the applicable Treasury Regulations) that is leased to Tenant with respect to the Leased Property at the beginning and end of a Fiscal Year cannot exceed twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the average of the aggregate fair market values of the real and personal property comprising such Leased Property that is leased to Tenant under such lease at the beginning and end of such Fiscal Year (the “REIT Personal Property Limitation”). If Landlord reasonably anticipates that the REIT Personal Property Limitation will be exceeded with respect to the Leased Property for any Fiscal Year, Landlord may, at Landlord’s sole option and absolute discretion restructure the ownership of Landlord and/or Landlord’s ownership of the personal property (including, without limitation, transfer such personal property to Enchanted Village TRS Corp under the Personal Property Lease), and lease, or cause an Affiliate to lease, to Tenant, pursuant to a separate lease agreement, such personal property, and Tenant agrees that it shall cooperate with Landlord in good faith in connection with such restructuring and shall execute any separate or amended lease agreements, provided the same do not materially affect Tenant’s rights and obligations under this Lease.
62
15.2 Basis for Sublease Rent Restricted. Tenant cannot sublet the property that is leased to it by Landlord, or enter into any similar arrangement, on any basis such that the rental or other amounts paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the net income or profits derived by the business activities of the sublessee or (b) any other formula such that any portion of the rent paid by Tenant to Landlord would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) and Section 512(b)(3) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder.
15.3 Landlord Affiliate Subleases Restricted. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any person in which Landlord owns, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or more interest, with the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, and any such action shall be deemed void ab initio. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any Person that Landlord would be deemed to control within the meaning of Section 512(b)(13) of the Code.
15.4 Landlord Interests in Tenant Restricted. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, neither party shall take, or permit to take, any action that would cause Landlord to own, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or greater interest in the Tenant within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, and any similar or successor provision thereto, and any such action shall be deemed void ab initio. In addition, anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not take or permit to take, any action that would cause Landlord to own, directly or indirectly, such interest in Tenant such that amounts received from Tenant would represent amounts received from a controlled entity within the meaning of Section 512(b)(13) of the Code.
15.5 Landlord Services. Any services provided by, or on behalf of, Landlord will not prevent any amounts received or accrued from qualifying as “rents from real property” (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2) or Section 512(b)(3) of the Code.
15.6 Certain Subtenants Prohibited. Anything to the contrary in this Lease notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublease the Leased Property to, or enter into any similar arrangement with, any Person that would be described in Section 514(c)(9)(B)(iii) or (iv) of the Code.
15.7 Future Amendment. Tenant hereby agrees to amend this Article 15 from time to time as Landlord deems necessary or desirable in order to effectuate the intent hereof, so long as such amendments do not materially alter the economic terms of this Lease.
ARTICLE 16
SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT
16.1 Transfers Prohibited Without Consent. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole opinion
63

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant elects to sell, assign or otherwise transfer this Lease, or Tenant’s interest in the Leased Property, in whole but not in part, to an Affiliated Person, then Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such sale, assignment or transfer provided (a) Tenant gives Landlord prior written notice of such sale or assignment, (b) there shall exist no uncured Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease as of the date of such sale or assignment, (c) such assignment shall constitute an assignment of all of Tenant’s rights, and an assumption of all of Tenant’s obligations arising from and after the date of such assignment, under this Lease, the Pooling Agreement and all other agreements, documents and instruments evidencing the transactions contemplated by this Lease (collectively, the “Lease Related Documents”), (d) Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease, the Pooling Agreement and the Lease Related Documents for the remaining Term, (e) such assignee expressly assumes in writing all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and the Lease Related Documents, and all of the obligations of the tenants under the Affiliated Leases, in each case arising from and after the date of such assignment, (f) such assignee or purchaser shall continue to operate the Leased Property as a Theme Park consistent with Comparable Theme Parks, and (g) such assignee or purchaser is not, and/or is not controlled by, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, a Person or Persons known in the community as being of bad moral character or who has been convicted of a felony on any state or federal court.

Any sale, assignment, sublease, license, concession or transfer of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.
16.2 Indirect Transfer Prohibited Without Consent. A sale, assignment, pledge, transfer, exchange or other disposition (“Transfer”) of any equitable interest in Tenant or any Person Controlling Tenant which results in a change or transfer of management or control of Tenant, or a merger, consolidation or other combination of Tenant with another entity which results in a change or transfer of management or control of Tenant, shall be deemed an assignment hereunder and shall be subject to Section 16.1 hereof.

ARTICLE 19
FACILITY MORTGAGES
19.1 Subordination. This Lease, Tenant’s interest hereunder and Tenant’s leasehold interest in and to the Leased Property are hereby agreed by Tenant to be and are hereby made junior, inferior, subordinate and subject in right, title, interest, lien, encumbrance, priority and all other respects to any mortgage or mortgages and security interests now or hereafter in force and effect upon or encumbering Landlord’s interest in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and to all collateral assignments by Landlord to any third party or parties of any of Landlord’s rights under this Lease or the rents, issues and profits thereof or therefrom as security for any liability or indebtedness, direct, indirect or contingent, of Landlord to such third party or parties, and to all future modifications, extensions, renewals, consolidations and replacements of, and all amendments and supplements to any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments, and upon recording of any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments, the same shall be deemed to be prior in dignity, lien and encumbrance to this Lease, Tenant’s interest hereunder and Tenant’s leasehold interest in and to the Leased Property irrespective of the dates of execution, delivery or recordation of any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments (such mortgages, mortgages, security interests, assignments, modifications, extensions, renewals, amendments, supplements and replacement being a “Facility Mortgage”); provided however, this Lease shall not be subordinate to any Facility Mortgage unless and until Landlord provides Tenant with the Non-Disturbance Agreement (defined below). Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord and any Mortgagee or potential Mortgagee in connection with a Facility Mortgage, including, but not limited to, consenting to non-material and reasonable amendments to this Lease as may be requested by such Mortgagee, provided that such amendments do not materially alter or increase the economic terms of this Lease to Tenant or modify Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Any and all costs, fees and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any Facility Mortgage shall not be included as part of Landlord’s Additional Investment. Tenant agrees if Landlord or Mortgagee shall request that Tenant execute and deliver any further instrument or agreement of subordination of this Lease or Tenant’s interest hereunder or Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property to any such Facility Mortgage, in confirmation or furtherance of or in addition to the foregoing subordination provisions of this Section, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver the same to the requesting party in form reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. Tenant agrees that it will, from time to time, execute such documentation as may be reasonably requested by Landlord and any Mortgagee (a) to assist Landlord and such Mortgagee in establishing or perfecting any security interest in Landlord’s interest in the Reserve and any funds therein; and (b) to facilitate or allow Landlord to encumber the Leased Property or any portion thereof as herein contemplated. If, within thirty (30) calendar days following Tenant’s receipt of a written request by Landlord or the holder or proposed holder of any such Facility Mortgage, Tenant shall fail or refuse or shall have not executed any such further instrument or agreement of subordination, which satisfies the criteria set forth in this Section 19.1 and the required Non-Disturbance Agreement has been executed and delivered to Tenant, Tenant shall be in breach and default of its obligation to do so and of this Lease and Landlord shall be entitled thereupon to exercise any and all remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease or otherwise provided by law. Prior to the recordation of any Facility Mortgage, Landlord shall obtain from the Mortgagee thereunder, a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“Non-Disturbance Agreement”) in form and content reasonably acceptable to Tenant and Mortgagee,
69
which Non-Disturbance Agreement shall provide, among other things, that in the event of a foreclosure of the Facility Mortgage (or a deed in lieu of foreclosure), or other exercise by Mortgagee (or any successor to such Mortgagee) of any of its remedies upon an Event of Default, in connection with which title or possession of the Leased Property is transferred to the Mortgagee, or to a purchaser at foreclosure, or to a subsequent purchaser from Mortgagee, provided Tenant shall not be in Default hereunder, this Lease shall not be terminated and Tenant shall not be disturbed in its rights hereunder. The Non-Disturbance Agreement shall expressly provide that this Lease is subordinate in all respects to the Facility Mortgage, subject to the terms of the Non-Disturbance Agreement. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee, the Non-Disturbance Agreement subject to Mortgagee’s execution and delivery of the same to Tenant.
19.2 Attornment. Tenant shall and hereby agrees to attorn, and be bound under all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease and the Ground Lease, to any successor of the interest of Landlord under this Lease, or the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease, as applicable, for the balance of the Term of this Lease remaining at the time of the succession of such interest to such successor. In particular, in the event that any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any Facility Mortgage, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser at any such foreclosure sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant agrees that neither the purchaser at any such foreclosure sale nor the foreclosing Mortgagee or holder of any such Facility Mortgage shall have any liability for any act or omission of Landlord, be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have as claims against Landlord, or be bound by any advance rents which may have been paid by Tenant to Landlord for more than the current period in which such rents come due.
19.3 Rights of Mortgagees and Assignees. Provided Landlord has given Tenant written notice thereof, any Mortgagee shall have the right to unilateral enjoyment, exercise or control over the rights, remedies, powers and interests of Landlord hereunder, or otherwise arising under Applicable Law, as assigned or granted to such Mortgagee by Landlord or as provided in any Facility Mortgage. At the time of giving any notice of Default to Landlord, Tenant shall mail or deliver to any Mortgagee of whom Tenant has received written notice, a copy of any such notice. No notice of Default or termination of this Lease by Tenant shall be effective until each Mortgagee shall have been furnished a copy of such notice by Tenant. In the event Landlord fails to cure any Default by it under this Lease, the Mortgagee shall have, at its option, a period of thirty (30) days after expiration of any cure period of Landlord within which to remedy such Default of Landlord or to cause such default to be remedied. In the event that the Mortgagee elects to cure any such Default by Landlord, then Tenant shall accept such performance on the part of such Mortgagee as though the same had been performed by Landlord, and for such purpose Tenant hereby authorizes any Mortgagee to enter upon the Leased Property to the extent necessary to exercise any of Landlord’s rights, powers and duties under this Lease. If, in the event of any Default by Landlord which is reasonably capable of being cured by a Mortgagee, the Mortgagee promptly commences and diligently pursues to cure the Default, then Tenant will not terminate this Lease or cease to perform any of its obligations under this Lease so long as the Mortgagee commences to cure within the foregoing thirty (30) day period and is, with due diligence, engaged in the curing of such Default.

As used in this Section 20.2 (h) (and notwithstanding any other definition of Indebtedness herein), Indebtedness shall mean all obligations, contingent or otherwise, to pay or repay monies irrespective of whether, in accordance with GAAP, such obligations should be reflected on the obligor’s balance sheet as debt.
20.3 Leasehold Financing Prohibited.

ARTICLE 21
MISCELLANEOUS
21.1 Limitation on Payment of Rent. All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Lease exceed the maximum permissible under Applicable Laws, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Lease, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto, the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive amount. This provision shall control every other provision of this Lease and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.
21.2 No Waiver. No release, discharge or waiver of any provision hereof shall be enforceable against or binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless in writing and executed by Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be. Neither the failure of Landlord or Tenant to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants, agreements and conditions hereof, nor the acceptance of any Rent by Landlord with knowledge of a breach of this Lease by Tenant in the performance of its obligations hereunder, or the following of any practice or custom at
74
variance with the terms hereof, shall be deemed or constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies that Landlord or Tenant may have or a waiver of any subsequent breach or default in any of such terms, provisions, covenants, agreements and conditions or the waiver of the right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof.
21.3 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord, now or hereafter provided either in this Lease or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies.
21.4 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Lease held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Lease, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein.
21.5 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Lease or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.
21.6 No Merger of Title. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Lease or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly, this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.
21.7 Tenant’s Representations. In addition to any other representation or warranty set forth herein and as an inducement to Landlord to enter into this Lease, Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord as follows:
(a) Tenant is a limited liability company which is duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation. Tenant has all requisite power and authority under the laws of the state of its formation and the laws of the State of Washington, and under its certificate of organization, operating agreement or other charter documents, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Lease and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Tenant is duly authorized to transact business in any jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it requires such qualification.
(b) Tenant has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease, and upon the execution and delivery of any document to be delivered by Tenant, prior to the date hereof, such document shall constitute the valid and binding obligation and agreement of Tenant, enforceable against Tenant in accordance with its terms,
75
except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and except to the extent that the availability of equitable relief may be subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding may be brought.
(c) There are no judgments presently outstanding and unsatisfied against Tenant or any of its properties, and neither Tenant nor any of its properties are involved in any material litigation at law or in equity or any proceeding before any court, or by or before any governmental or administrative agency, which litigation or proceeding could materially adversely affect Tenant, and no such material litigation or proceeding is, to the knowledge of Tenant, threatened against Tenant and no investigation looking toward such a proceeding has begun or is contemplated.
(d) To the knowledge of Tenant, neither this Lease nor any other document, certificate or statement furnished to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with the transaction contemplated herein contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. To the knowledge of Tenant there is no fact or condition which materially and adversely affects the business, operations, affairs, properties or condition of Tenant which has not been set forth in this Lease or in other documents, certificates or statements furnished to Landlord in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.
(e) Tenant acknowledges that Tenant’s failure or repeated delays in making prompt payment in accordance with the terms of any agreement, leases, invoices or statements for purchase or lease of P&E, Inventory or other goods or services will be detrimental to the reputation of Landlord and Tenant.
(f) All employees of Tenant or any Affiliate, if any, are solely employees of Tenant or such Affiliate and not Landlord. Neither Tenant nor any Affiliate of Tenant is Landlord’s agent for any purpose in regard to Tenant’s or any Affiliate of Tenant’s employees or otherwise. Further, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord does not exercise any direction or control over the employment policies or employment decisions of Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant.
(g) Tenant has not (i) made any contributions, payments or gifts to or for the private use of any governmental official, employee or agent where either the payment or the purpose of such contribution, payment or gift is illegal under the laws of the United States or the jurisdiction in which made, (ii) established or maintained any unrecorded fund or asset for any purpose or made any false or artificial entries on its books or (iii) made any payments to any person with the intention or understanding that any part of such payment was to be used for any purpose other than that described in the documents supporting the payment. Tenant shall not take any such actions during the Term of this Lease.
21.8 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees that so long as Tenant shall timely pay all rents due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder and keep, observe and perform all covenants, promises and agreements on Tenant’s part to be kept, observed and performed hereunder, Tenant shall and may peacefully and quietly have, hold and occupy the Leased
76
Property free of any interference from Landlord or any Person claiming by, through or under Landlord; subject, however, and nevertheless to the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease, the Permitted Encumbrances and documents affecting title to the Leased Property approved by Tenant (in all cases specifically including the lawful exercise by any Person of its rights with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to any of the Mineral Reservations). Landlord shall not, without the prior written approval of Tenant, enter into or record any document which purports to or which by its terms will materially and adversely affect the Tenant, Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Leased Property or Tenant’s rights under this Lease (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned provided that the same is appropriate and reasonably necessary in connection with the normal and ordinary course of the Business). Any breach of the covenants of Landlord set forth in this Section 21.8 shall be governed by the provisions of Section 12.3 hereof.
21.9 Recordation of Memorandum of Lease. At either party’s option, a short form memorandum of this Lease, in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto shall be recorded or filed among the appropriate land records of the County in which the Leased Property is located, and Tenant shall pay the transfer and all recording costs associated therewith. In the event of a discrepancy between the provisions of this Lease and such short form memorandum thereof, the provisions of this Lease shall prevail.
