5.5 Enforcement of Trademark Rights.

(a) Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to police its Marks for unauthorized uses of such Marks by third parties and enforce and defend the Marks from infringement through means that each Party may reasonably determine in its sole discretion, all at each Party’s sole expense.

shall have the sole right to determine whether or not any action (legal or otherwise) shall be taken against a third party on account of any infringement or potential infringement, and each Party shall join in such action at the other Party’s expense if the other Party so requests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the wrongful conduct of a Party gave rise to such infringement or potential infringement, that Party shall bear the costs and expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and disbursements, of joining in such action in proportion to the degree of causation of the infringement or potential infringement attributable to that Party’s wrongful conduct. The Parties shall share any award of damages net of costs, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements, as a result of such actions, in proportion to their respective damages suffered by such infringement.

(b) If LVCVA or its Affiliates breaches any of its other material obligations, covenants, representations, or warranties hereunder, but only if (i) such breach is not capable of being cured, (ii) such breach is capable of being cured, but LVCVA does not institute commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach within ten (10) days after the Company notifies LVCVA in writing of such breach in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4 hereof, or (iii) such breach is capable of being cured and LVCVA institutes commercially reasonable efforts to cure it within sixty (60) days after the Company notifies LVCVA in writing of such breach in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4 hereof, but such breach is not cured within ninety (90) days after the date such notice was given (or such longer period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) as is reasonably necessary to cure such default provided LVCVA is diligently attempting to cure such default); or

(c) If LVCVA or its Affiliates makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or if a trustee, receiver, or similar officer of any court is appointed for LVCVA or for a substantial part of its property or assets, whether with or without its consent, or if an action for bankruptcy, composition, reorganization, insolvency, or liquidation proceedings is or are instituted by or against LVCVA and such action or proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date of the institution thereof.

12.2 Remedies for LVCVA Defaults. In the case of an LVCVA Default, the Company shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to seek damages and other remedies (but specifically excluding termination of this Agreement) from LVCVA pursuant to the Negotiated Resolution Process set forth in Section 12.8 and the Arbitration Process set forth in Section 12.9. The Company’s

seeking of damages and other remedies shall not affect LVCVA’s liability for, or obligation to pay, in fulll and in accordance with this Agreement, the Sponsorship Fee for the entire Term of this Agreement or LVCVA’s liability for any other amounts payable by LVCVA under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the prohibition on termination of this Agreement set forth in this Section 12.2, in the event that LVCVA fails to make the Sponsorship Fee payments due for any eight (8) payment dates and fails to cure such non-payment defaults, then the Company shall have the right to enter into an agreement with a replacement naming rights sponsor, provided that LVCVA shall remain liable for all Sponsorship Fees and other payments due hereunder through the end of the Term, less any sponsorship fee payments actually received by the Company from a replacement naming rights sponsor.

12.3 The Company Defaults. Each of the following shall constitute a “Company Default:”

(a) If the Company breaches any of its material obligations, covenants, representations, or warranties hereunder but only if (i) such breach is not capable of being cured, (ii) such breach is capable of being cured, but the Company does not institute material and substantial efforts to cure such breach within ten (10) days after LVCVA notifies the Company in writing of such breach in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4 hereof, or (iii) such breach is capable of being cured and the Company institutes material and substantial efforts to cure it within sixty (60) days after LVCVA notifies the Company in writing of such breach in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4 hereof, but such breach is not cured within ninety (90) days of the date such notice was given (or such longer period of time, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) as is reasonably necessary to cure such default, provided the Company is diligently attempting to cure such default; or

(b) If the Company makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or if a trustee, receiver, or similar officer of any court is appointed for the Company or for a substantial part of its property or assets, whether with or without its consent, or if an action for bankruptcy, composition, reorganization, insolvency, or liquidation proceedings is or are instituted by or against the Company and such action or proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date of the institution thereof.

12.4 Remedies for the Company Defaults. In the case of a Company Default, LVCVA shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to seek damages and other remedies (but specifically excluding termination of this Agreement) from the Company pursuant to the Negotiated Resolution Process set forth in Section 12.8 and the Arbitration Process set forth in Section 12.9. LVCVA’s seeking of damages and other remedies shall not affect the Company’s duty to carry out its obligations hereunder during the Term of this Agreement. In the event that LVCVA obtains a judgment or other monetary award in connection with a Company Default, (i) LVCVA agrees that the amount of the damages or monetary award shall not be used as an offset against the Sponsorship Fees due hereunder, and (ii) the Parties shall negotiate in good faith (but shall not be required to agree) on the provision of make-good benefits to be provided to LVCVA up to the value of the judgment or award due to LVCVA.

12.5 Damage or Destruction to Facility; Force Majeure Events; Cancellation Accommodation. If during the Term (i) there shall be damage or destruction to, or other limitations on the use of, the Ball Park including by reason of a Force Majeure Event or (ii) major reconstruction or renovation of the Ball Park becomes necessary, in the Company’s judgment, for safety reasons, to

maintain the standards of quality at the Ball Park, or to upgrade the Ball Park to take advantage of potential opportunities, and in any of these cases, the Team’s home games are not played or are played at a facility other than the Ball Park or at least one hundred (100) Events (including Team home games) are not held at the Ball Park, in each case, during any Contract Year (the “Relocated Games or Events”) (the occurrence of which shall not constitute a breach or event of default hereunder), then the Company shall decide whether or not to rebuild or renovate the Ball Park within 12 months from the occurrence of damage or destruction (if any), and:

(a) In the event that there are twenty (20) or fewer Relocated Games in a Season, there shall be no adjustment to the Sponsorship Fee for the relevant Year; or

(b) In the event that there are more than twenty (20) Relocated Games in a Season or less than one hundred (100) Events, then LVCVA shall receive a credit equal to the value of the Sponsorship Fee for the period impacted, which shall calculated by taking (i) the Sponsorship Fee for the affected Contract Year multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Events actually held at the Stadium in the affected Contract Year and the denominator of which is 100 (the “Casualty Adjustment”).

(c) The Parties agree to discuss in good faith, but are not required to agree, on the provision of make-good benefits to be provided to LVCVA up to a value of the Casualty Adjustment.

12.6 Payments for De-Identification. Upon any termination of this Agreement obtained as a result of any LVCVA Default, LVCVA shall be obligated to pay all reasonable and necessary costs and other expenses actually incurred by the Company in connection with the removal of the LVCVA Marks and the Ball Park Marks from the Ball Park and all other items on which the LVCVA Marks and Ball Park Marks are present. In the event this Agreement is terminated for any other reason or should the Term of this Agreement expire, then the Company shall be obligated to pay all costs, losses, and expenses actually incurred by the Company in connection with the removal of the LVCVA Marks and the Ball Park Marks from the Ball Park and all other items on which the Ball Park Marks and LVCVA Marks are present and in connection with the Company’s compliance with Section 5.6(b).

12.7 Limitation of Damages. Neither Party shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages of the other Party as a result of any breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.7 shall have any effect on a Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder to the extent such indemnification obligations arise out of or in connection with third party claims for damages, including indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages.

12.8 Negotiated Resolution Process. In the event of a dispute between the Parties regarding this Agreement, except as provided in Section 12.4, the Parties agree to follow the Negotiated Resolution Process described in this Section 12.8 prior to filing a claim for arbitration pursuant to Section 12.9. The Parties will exercise commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to resolve disputes throughout this Negotiated Resolution Process, and, in response to the other’s requests, will meet as often as necessary and provide the other with non-confidential information reasonably related to the dispute.

(a) Procedure.

(i) A dispute under this Agreement will be initially referred to a designated employee for each of the Company and LVCVA (the “Executives”). The Executives will endeavor to resolve the dispute between themselves and without rancor, each bearing any expense they may incur.

(ii) If the Executives are unable to resolve the dispute promptly, but no more than twenty (20) business days after the complaining Party first notified the non-complaining Party in writing of the dispute, the Executives will each refer such dispute to a mediation service acceptable to both Parties, for up to six (6) hours of mediation (unless the Parties agree to more). The cost of the mediator will be split by the parties.

(iii) In the event the dispute is not resolved with mediation, then either Party may elect to pursue its available remedies, including arbitration pursuant to Section 12.9.

(iv) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Executives shall have the authority to collectively deviate from the procedure outlined in this Section 12.8(a) if they determine, in their reasonable discretion, that such deviation is reasonably likely to lead to a resolution of this matter.

(v) Depending on the subject matter of the issues to be considered under the Negotiated Resolution Process, the Parties shall consider as possible outcomes (i) an appropriate modification of this Agreement that maintains the balance of the commercial interests of the Parties hereunder, which may include replacing the benefits lost, (ii) an appropriate reduction or increase of the Sponsorship Fee that reflects the corresponding reduction or increase in benefits, (iii) appropriate monetary damages, (iv) appropriate equitable remedies, and/or (v) any combination of the foregoing.

(b) Unspecified Options. If the options following the unsuccessful conclusion of the Negotiated Settlement Process are not otherwise specified in this Agreement, then an aggrieved Party shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to invoke the Arbitration Procedure described in Section 12.9.

12.9 Arbitration Procedure. Except for any claim relating to the ownership or validity of the LVCVA Marks, the Team Marks, and/or the Ball Park Marks, or any other intellectual property owned by the Company or LVCVA or as set forth in Section 12.4, in the event that a remedy described in this Agreement calls for use of the Arbitration Procedure, or if no procedural remedy is set forth in this Agreement, and provided that the Parties have first availed themselves of the Negotiated Resolution Process set forth in Section 12.8, then the Parties agree to use the following Arbitration Procedure. The Parties agree that this Arbitration Procedure shall be final and binding. The Parties

shall not resort to litigation, except to obtain injunctive relief, to prosecute an alleged infringement of one or more of the aforementioned Marks, or to enforce an award under this Section 12.9.

(a) Commercial Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, which AAA Rules shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement, which shall control. Unless the Parties agree in writing otherwise, the Arbitration shall be conducted before a single impartial arbitrator with a minimum of ten (10) years’ experience in the resolution of complex commercial disputes.

(b) Timing. The Arbitration shall take place within the three (3) months following the Arbitration Notice. The Arbitration hearing shall be continuous, subject to weekends, holidays, or other days to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties or designated by the arbitrator, and the total days of the arbitration hearing shall not exceed five (5) hearing days per Party, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties. A written and complete record that includes all hearings and all evidence (including testimony, exhibits, deposition transcripts, affidavits, etc.) admitted into evidence in the Arbitration proceeding shall be made and provided for any appeal pursuant to Section 12.9(g).

(c) Conflicts. To the extent that any AAA Rule is in conflict with the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (as to a federal question) or the applicable Nevada Civil Practice and Remedies Codes governing arbitration (the “Nevada Arbitration Act”) (as to a state law question), such provisions in the Federal Arbitration Act and/or the Nevada Arbitration Act, as applicable, shall control.

(d) Discovery. The parameters for discovery shall be as determined by the arbitrator, with the understanding that it is the intent of the Parties to have some form of limited discovery, unless otherwise agreed.

(e) Basis for Decision. The decision rendered by the arbitrator (the “Arbitration Award”) shall be based on the evidence introduced at the Arbitration hearing, including all logical and reasonable inferences therefrom, and shall determine the rights and obligations of the Parties according to the terms of this Agreement and the substantive laws of Nevada or federal law, whichever is applicable, without regard to conflicts of law rules; provided, however, to the extent that any other section of this Agreement provides for a specific or exclusive remedy or relief, or excludes a specific remedy or relief, the remedy or relief provided in such Arbitration Award must be consistent with such specific or exclusive remedy or relief, or such exclusion.

(f) Rendering of Decision. The arbitrator shall render the Arbitration Award not later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Arbitration hearing. The Arbitration Award shall be reasoned and in writing and shall include written findings of fact and conclusions of law upon which such Arbitration Award is based. The submission of post-hearing legal briefs by the Parties shall be subject to the discretion of the arbitrator, but in no event shall such briefs delay the arbitrator’s rendering of the Arbitration Award.

(g) Finality. The Arbitration Award shall be final and binding on the Parties. An appeal regarding the Arbitration Award may be granted only if the Arbitration Award is found to violate the standards set forth in the Federal Arbitration Act. An appeal shall be brought through AAA in accordance with the AAA Optional Appellate Arbitration Rules (the “Appeal”). The AAA

Appellate Panel or any other Panel hearing an Appeal (the “Panel”) shall be comprised of three (3) former federal court judges.

(h) Expenses. All expenses, fees and administrative costs of the arbitrator and the Arbitration shall be borne half by LVCVA and half by the Company, unless agreed otherwise in writing; provided, however, each Party shall pay its own legal fees and expenses related to its expert witnesses and consultants.

(i) Expenses on Appeal. All expenses, fees and administrative costs of the Panel and any Appeal shall be borne by the Party who first initiates such Appeal in the event such Party is ultimately determined not to be the prevailing party (as determined by the Panel) in such Appeal, unless agreed otherwise in writing; provided, however, each Party shall pay its own legal fees and expenses related to its expert witnesses and consultants.

12.10 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated by LVCVA, without liability, only if the Team or rights to play Triple A baseball are (i) terminated (for any reason) or (ii) conveyed to any person or entity that is not going to play Triple A baseball at the Ball Park. Nothing in this Section 12.10 shall prohibit the Parties from meeting to discuss appropriate modifications to this Agreement, including changes to the amount of the Sponsorship Fee, in lieu of termination.

12.11 No Rights of Set Off. Without limiting LVCVA’s rights under Section 12.10 of this Agreement, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, under no circumstances, shall either Party have any rights to offset, reduce or withhold payment of any amount payable hereunder by such Party and all amounts due hereunder shall be paid timely and in full.

13. SPECIAL PROVISIONS.

13.1 Consequences if Other Agreements Violated. Should this Agreement or any provision hereof violate any applicable statute, law, ordinance, Baseball Authority rule or other governmental rule or regulation, as any of the above may be amended, or adopted from time to time, as the case may be, then at the written request of either Party, the Parties shall use the Negotiated Resolution Process of Section 12.8 to negotiate a modification to this Agreement to the extent reasonably necessary to bring about compliance with such statute, law, ordinance, or governmental rule or regulation, as the case may be, provided, however, if, in the reasonable opinion of either Party, any such proposed modification would affect the commercial basis of this Agreement, such Party shall so inform the other Party and the Parties shall then use the Negotiated Resolution Process of Section 13.8 to attempt to negotiate (A) an appropriate re-modification of this Agreement that maintains the balance of the commercial interests of the Parties hereunder, which may include replacing the benefits lost as a result of such proposed modification, (B) an appropriate reduction of the Sponsorship Fee that reflects the reduction in benefits caused by such proposed modification, (C) appropriate monetary damages, (D) appropriate equitable remedies, or (E) any combination of the foregoing. If the Parties cannot reach such agreement within sixty (60) days after a Party’s written request for the second meeting permitted by this Section 13.1, then either Party shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to invoke the Arbitration Procedure and to enforce any remedies awarded in such arbitration procedure. The Parties agree that the remedies provided in this Section 13.1 are the sole and exclusive remedies for events of the type described in this Section 13.1.

15.5 Binding Effect: Assignment: Granting of Security Interests. This Agreement, and each and every provision contained herein, shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be

(a) The Company may unilaterally assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement (in whole, but not in part) to: (i) any Affiliate that is wholly-owned (directly or indirectly) by the Company, (ii) one (1) or more entities formed and wholly owned (directly or indirectly) by the Company, or (iii) any successor or assign of the Company; provided, (A) the assignee has the authority and legal ability to and specifically assumes and agrees to fully perform all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, (B) the assignee can demonstrate sufficient capital, or LVCVA is provided with a written guarantee in favor of the assignee from a person who can demonstrate sufficient capital, to enable the assignee to fully perform all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement for the remaining Term, (C) such assignment and assumption, to the extent required, is approved by the Baseball Authorities, (D) the Company and the assignee execute and deliver to LVCVA such assignments, assumptions, and other documents as LVCVA may reasonably request to evidence such transactions and the assumption of the liabilities and obligations hereunder, and (E) the assignee covenants and agrees to LVCVA that it shall operate, manage and maintain the Ball Park, and the Company at a level comparable to that established by the Company. Upon any such assignment and assumption that complies with the provisions of this Section 15.5(a), the Company shall be fully released from any further liability under this Agreement.

(b) The Company shall have the right to collaterally assign or grant a security interest in its rights to receive Sponsorship Fees hereunder to any third-party lender(s) that provide a loan to the Company. If requested, LVCVA shall execute a consent to any such collateral assignment or grant of a security interest permitted by this Section 15.5(b), provided that: (i) such consent is in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to LVCVA, (ii) such lender executes customary and appropriate non-disturbance and attornment agreements, and (iii) such consent only requires LVCVA to consent to the assignment of the right to receive the Sponsorship Fees, to give the secured third-party lender(s) copies of any notices that LVCVA is required to give the Company hereunder, and to require LVCVA to accept the tender of a timely cure by the secured third-party lender(s) of any default by the Company hereunder. If the Company notifies LVCVA of any assignment to any bank, lending or financing institution or other lender, LVCVA shall, if and when requested by any such bank, lending or financing institution or other lender in writing, pay all amounts payable by LVCVA to the Company directly to such bank, lending or financing institution or other lender, as the case may be, and that LVCVA agrees to provide such further assurances and additional documentation as is reasonably requested by any such bank, lending or financing institution or any other lender. The Company and LVCVA intend and agree that any such assignment will constitute a present and continuing assignment of the Sponsorship Fees until this such assignment is terminated, but in the event the assignment is deemed to be a secured financing, the Company agrees to grant a first priority security interest in the Sponsorship Fees to such bank, lending or financing institution or other lender, and that any such assignment agreement shall be deemed a “security agreement” as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of Nevada. The Company is hereby authorized to file such financing statements and continuation statements from time to time as they may determine is necessary or appropriate to perfect the security interest hereby granted.

(c) LVCVA shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement (in whole or in part) to any entity wholly-owned by LVCVA (directly or indirectly), to any entity which purchases all or substantially all of the assets of LVCVA, or to a successor entity in the

event of a merger involving LVCVA, provided: (i) LVCVA obtains the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, (ii) the assignee has the authority and legal ability to and specifically assumes and agrees to fully perform all of the obligations of LVCVA under this Agreement, (iii) the assignee has such rights in the LVCVA Marks as are necessary to perform such assignee’s obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) LVCVA and the assignee execute and deliver to the Company such assignments, assumptions, and other documents as the Company may reasonably request to evidence such transactions and the assumption of the liabilities and obligations hereunder. Upon any such assignment and assumption under this Subsection 15.5(c), LVCVA shall be fully released from liability under this Agreement.

(d) Except as provided in Subsections 15.5(a)-(d), no Party may (and each Party agrees that it will not) voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, sell, assign, transfer, sublease, pledge, mortgage or encumber this Agreement or any of the rights granted herein without the prior written consent of the other Party or Parties, which may be granted in that Party’s sole discretion.

15.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements (including but not limited to the Letter), understandings, inducements, and conditions, whether expressed, implied, oral or written. The express terms of this Agreement control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of trade inconsistent with such terms.

15.7 Further Assurances. The Parties will execute and deliver all such further endorsements, instruments, agreements, and other documents and take all such further actions as the other Party may reasonably request from time to time in order to effectuate the terms, purposes, and intent of this Agreement.

15.8 Independent Contractors. For all purposes under this Agreement, the Parties are independent contractors and nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to constitute or give rise to a partnership, joint venture, or master and servant, employer and employee, principal and agent, fiduciary, or other relationship that imposes a fiduciary duty between the Parties. The Parties shall each be solely responsible for the conduct of their respective employees and agents in connection with the performance of their respective obligations hereunder.

15.9 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by a writing signed by the Parties hereto.

15.10 Agreement Sufficient. The Parties agree that, assuming due execution of this Agreement by the other Party, this Agreement represents a valid and binding contract between them, setting forth in adequate detail the material terms of their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof.

15.11 Confidentiality. Intentionally deleted.

15.12 Counsel Involved. Each Party has been represented by counsel of its own choosing in connection with the negotiation, preparation, and drafting of this Agreement and, consequently, the Parties hereby waive the application of any rule of law to the effect that ambiguities contained in

the final written form of this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against the Party who or whose attorney prepared the final draft or any prior draft hereof.

15.13 Consents. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, all consents or approvals by any of the Parties hereto must be in writing, signed by the Party giving such consent or approval, and shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Party’s failure to approve or disapprove any request from the other Party within fifteen (15) business days after such written request is deemed to have been given in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4 hereof shall result in such request being deemed to have been denied.

15.14 Certain Rules of Construction. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references to “herein,” “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” or “hereunder,” shall be deemed references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, subsection, sentence, or clause of this Agreement, and the terms “include” and “including” shall mean “include without limitation” and “including without limitation,” respectively.

15.15 Headings. The captions and headings appearing in this Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit, or enlarge the scope of this Agreement or any of the provisions hereof.

15.16 Execution In Counterpart. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
