Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby

Agreement) as if the provisions of this National Agreement were incorporated

Agreements, the provisions of this
2

(d) This National Agreement and the Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements are
subject to early termination in accordance with the provisions of Section 16
herein and Section 13 of the Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements.
(e) Except for the reasons that constitute a force majeure as set forth in
Section 15 of this National Agreement which would not be grounds for termination
hereunder, this National Agreement may be cancelled by Hyatt upon the early
termination of that certain Amended and Restated Spectravision and Interactive
Services National Agreement of even date herewith between Hyatt and Spectradyne
(the "Spectravision National Agreement").
3. Spectramax.
(a) Spectramax is a registered trademark of Spectradyne. Spectramax services
(commonly known as "free-to-guest") are multichannel, satellite-delivered,
closed-circuit television services, including, but not limited to, satellite
channels licensed by Spectradyne, all of which are delivered to Hotel guests
over the Hotel master antenna television system ("MATVII) using an earth station
and related equipment. The earth station and related equipment are provided by
Spectradyne.
(b) Spectramax services shall be provided in the manner described throughout
this National Agreement and the Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements.
(c) Spectradyne shall provide each Hotel, at the Hotel's option,
3

Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements. Such satellite channels shall include

Cable Network News ("CNN") or CNN-Headline ("CNN-HI") Edition, the Disney
Channel ("Disney") or Nickelodeon, and Xxxxxx Network Television ("TNT") or
WTBS, Channel 17, Atlanta Superstation ("WTBS") or other equivalent services as
agreed to by the parties.
(d) During the terms of the Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements, Hyatt shall
have the option to add or delete satellite channels licensed by Spectradyne upon
ninety (90) days, prior written notice to Spectradyne. If Hyatt elects to add
satellite channels licensed by Spectradyne in addition to those set forth in
Section 3(c) above, such additional satellite channels shall be delivered to
interested Hotels for a fee to be agreed upon between Hyatt and Spectradyne.
It is understood and agreed that, from time to time, Hyatt may desire to receive
a satellite channel not described in Section 3(c) above. In such instance,
Spectradyne, at its sole cost and expense, shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain the rights to such additional satellite channel and transmit
same to the interested Hotels, for a fee to be agreed upon between Hyatt and
Spectradyne.
4. Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreements.

subject to and governed by the terms of this National Agreement.
(b) Each Hyatt Hotel which is not already a party to an Original Individual
Agreement desiring to retain Spectradyne to provide its Spectramax services
shall enter into an Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreement substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof.
(c) The term of each Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreement shall be conterminous
with the term of this National Agreement. In no event shall the Spectramax
free-to-guest satellite services in any Hotel have a term less than
Spectravision guest-pay movie services in that same Hotel.
(d) Under no circumstances shall the term of any Individual Hyatt Spectramax
Agreement automatically renew.
(e) Spectradyne agrees that any Hotel set forth on Exhibit A is
4
eligible for Spectramax services and the other benefits hereunder. Hyatt may,
from time to time, add or delete Hyatt Hotels from Exhibit A. Any Hyatt Hotel
desiring to hire Spectradyne to provide Spectramax must enter into an Individual
Hyatt Spectramax Agreement which shall expire on the Expiration Date regardless
of its commencement date. Hyatt shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
ensure that Hyatt hotels enter into Individual License Agreements.
5. Installation of Equipment.
(a) Spectradyne has heretofore furnished and installed the earth station or
microwave system and related equipment (collectively, the "Equipment") necessary
to provide Spectramax service at many of the Hotels.
(b) With respect to new Hyatt Hotels, Spectradyne shall furnish and install the
Equipment in accordance with the provisions of the Individual Hyatt Spectramax
Agreement.
(c) During the term of this National Agreement, title to the Equipment described
herein is and shall remain with Spectradyne.
(d) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement or any
Individual Hyatt Spectramax Agreement (other than pursuant to a default by Hyatt
under Section 16 hereof), Hyatt may give notice no later than thirty (30) days
following such termination, at Hyatt's option to either:
(i) have the Hotels purchase and/or obtain Spectradyne's interest in or
right to use all or any portion of the existing Equipment, as determined solely
by Hyatt, for an amount mutually agreed to be the fair market value of such
Equipment and/or interest or right therein, except for any Equipment not owned
by Spectradyne or Equipment which Spectradyne cannot convey any interest in or
right to use. If, however, Hyatt and Spectradyne are unable to determine the
fair market value of such Equipment and/or interest or right therein, such
Equipment shall remain at the Hotel(s) as set forth in Section 5(d)(ii) below.
In the event that Hyatt elects to have the Hotels purchase such Equipment and/or
interest or right therein, Spectradyne shall deliver to such Hotels free and
clear title to such Equipment along with a Xxxx of Sale upon receipt of payment
of the agreed upon amount; or,
(ii) require Spectradyne to keep and maintain all such Equipment
provided to the Hotels pursuant to the Spectravision National Agreement,
including the license for the use of the on-site software required to operate
the Equipment, or provide the Interactive Services at the Hotel(s) for a total
rental, maintenance, license and service fee chargeable to the Hotels in the
amount of *** per guest room per month for a term not to exceed thirty-six (36)
months.
5
(e) The provisions of this Section 5(d) are also contained in Section 6 (h) of
the Spectravision National Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the
rental, license, maintenance and service fee described herein includes rental of
and maintenance and service to the Spectravision and Interactive Services
Equipment as well as the Spectramax Equipment and any software necessary to
operate either the Spectravision or Spectramax systems.
6. Hub Site.
From time to time, Spectradyne may request that a Hotel serve as a "hub site"
from which Spectradyne may provide its Spectramax service to third parties. As
compensation as a "hub site" the Hotel shall receive a monthly fee equal to ***.
In the event Spectradyne requests the Hotel to serve as a "hub site", Hyatt will
use its best efforts to enter into a rider to its Individual Hyatt Spectramax
Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto and made a part hereof as
Exhibit C.
7. Maintenance.
(a) Equipment, MATV Systems and TV Sets.
Spectradyne, at its sole cost and expense, shall service, repair, replace and
maintain the Equipment, the MATV-systems of the Hotels, and TV Sets (including
the remote controls thereto) provided by Spectradyne pursuant to Spectravision
National Agreement, in good working condition. Spectradyne agrees to replace all
lost remote control units and/or those. TV Sets and remote control units broken
beyond repair. All costs associated with such service, repairs, replacement and
maintenance shall be borne by Spectradyne, except for repairs required due to
the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Hyatt and its agents. Such repairs
shall be made by Spectradyne at its cost and reimbursed by Hyatt.
(b) Service.
In addition to providing Hyatt automated diagnostic and repair services,
Spectradyne shall at all times during the term hereof maintain or cause to be

days a week by phone and shall provide a guaranteed response time of four (4)
hours on any service calls.
8. Fee.
(a) During the term of this National Agreement, all Spectramax services
(including a minimum of five (5) satellite channels
6
including HBO, ESPN, CNN or CNN-H, Disney or Nickelodeon, and TNT or WTBS) shall
be provided to the Hotels at no cost to Hyatt or the Hotels. Any additional
satellite channels licensed by Spectradyne which Hyatt elects to add to the
Spectramax services shall be provided to interested Hotels for a fee to be
agreed upon between Hyatt and Spectradyne.
(b) Spectradyne warrants and represents that the value provided to Hyatt Hotels
hereunder is the best or better value provided by Spectradyne to any comparable
hotel company's hotels; and, in particular, is the best or better value provided
by Spectradyne to hotels operated by Marriott Corporation and Hilton Hotels
Corporation. Comparable hotels are defined as those hotels with like Spectradyne
equipment and substantially similar satellite channels, room counts, and quest
occupancy rates. In the event that at any time during the term of this
Agreement, Spectradyne shall offer a better combined value to any comparable
hotel than the value which is provided to Hyatt, the value provided to Hyatt
Hotels under this Agreement shall be automatically increased to the same level,
In no event shall Marriott and Hilton hotels be considered non-comparable
hotels. For purposes of this paragraph "value" shall mean the value of (i) all
fees, allowances and revenues, (ii) all Equipment including television sets and
remote control units, (iii) all software, software licenses and/or other
intellectual property rights, (iv) all services including installation,
maintenance, repair and replacement, and (v) all cost savings or other benefits

accepted industry practices and shall conform to the reasonable rules and
regulations of Hyatt established from time to time by Hyatt for the conduct of,
and in relation to, the employees of the contractors of the Hotels when such
employees are on Hotel premises. Spectradyne's employees, subcontractors or
agents shall be neat in appearance and wear badges identifying them as employees
or representatives of Spectradyne.
10. Equipment and Material.

completion of all operations and shall use materials which are in conformance
with existing federal, state, and local laws and ordinances.
11. Licenses or Permits.
If any governmental license or permit shall be required of Spectradyne for the
proper and lawful conduct of Spectradyne's
7
business or other activity carried on, in or at any Hotel, or if a failure to
procure such a license or permit might or would in any way affect the operations
of any Hotel, then Spectradyne, at its expense, shall duly procure and
thereafter maintain such license or permit and submit the same to inspection by
Hyatt. Spectradyne, at its sole cost and expense, shall at all times comply with
the requirements of each such license or permit.
Spectradyne shall, at its sole cost and expense, secure and maintain in full
force and effect during the term of this Amended and Restated National Agreement

provide that it may not be canceled or changed without at least ten (10) days
prior written notice to Hyatt.

coverage prior to the commencement of services hereunder and shall continue to
provide Hyatt with subsequent certificates of insurance evidencing uninterrupted
compliance with this insurance requirement until the termination of this
National Agreement.
Spectradyne shall provide Hyatt with certified copies of the policies required
herein upon Hyatt's request.

in any event, prior to the incurrence of any expenditures under this section.

can be cured or mitigated by the payment of money: provided, however, that the

reasons that constitute force majeure as set forth in Section 15 hereof, in the
event either Hyatt or Spectradyne fails to perform or comply with any other
material obligation under this National Agreement or the Amended Restated
Spectravision National Agreement or any Individual Spectramax or Spectravision

in advance of any discontinuation. Spectradyne will make its best efforts to
provide a substitute Channel. In the event Spectradyne is unable to provide a
substitute Channel, subject to Section 12 hereof, such failure shall, at Hyatt's
option, constitute a default as defined hereunder and shall be subject to the
provisions contained in Section 13 below.
25

withheld, distribute such materials in its guest rooms and may distribute any
lobby promotional materials supplied by Spectradyne. Additional in-room guides
may be purchased from Spectradyne for *** a piece; provided, however, Hyatt is
not required to purchase in-room guides from Spectradyne. If Spectradyne's cost
for such guides increases, the rate for additional guides will be raised to the
extent of such increase.

(a) Spectradyne, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain the Spectramax
equipment and the MATV in good working condition. Spectradyne agrees to maintain

obligations hereunder shall not unreasonably inconvenience the guests of the
Hotel or unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Hotel.

taxes that Hyatt collects on behalf of Spectradyne as set forth in this
Agreement.
