ARTICLE VIII
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 Gaming Problems.
- 11 -
(a) Definitions. When used in this Section 8.1, the following terms have the following meanings:
(i) “Gaming Problem” means, a determination by the Board that a “Gaming Problem” exists following the occurrence of any of the following: (i) a communication from a Gaming Authority that the Company or any Gaming Related Person does not satisfy any suitability, eligibility or other qualification criteria pursuant to any applicable Gaming Laws with respect to a Gaming License, including any character or suitability criteria thereunder; (ii) a communication from a Gaming Authority that a Gaming Related Person must divest itself of any interest in, as applicable, or disassociate from, the Company or its Affiliates; or (iii) circumstances such that any Gaming Related Person is deemed likely, in the reasonable discretion of the Board based on verifiable information received from any Gaming Authority or otherwise, to preclude or materially delay, impede or impair the ability of the Company, the Member and/or its Affiliates or any Gaming Related Person of the foregoing to obtain, maintain or renew a Gaming License, or such as may result in the imposition of materially burdensome terms and conditions on, or the revocation or suspension of, such a Gaming License. For the avoidance of doubt, the imposition of monetary fines by a Gaming Authority will not generally constitute a “Gaming Problem” unless accompanied by one of the three factors set forth in the preceding sentence.
(ii) “Gaming Related Person” means a Manager or, with respect to a Manager, any other Person whose relationship with such Manager may result in the Gaming Authorities determining that there is or may be a Gaming Problem.
(iii) Gaming Problem; Compliance with Gaming Laws. In the event that any Manager (or a Gaming Related Person of any Manager) experiences a Gaming Problem, such Manager shall promptly notify the Board of the relevant details and take all actions necessary or advisable to eliminate, terminate, discontinue or otherwise cure the Gaming Problem, including: (i) terminating the relationship with any Person giving rise to the Gaming Problem, (ii) with respect to a Manager, resigning as a Manager of the Company, and (iii) taking all other actions as may be necessary or appropriate to remedy the Gaming Problem. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all Transfers or redemptions of Membership Interests shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of all Gaming Laws, including any right of prior approval, review and/or filing thereunder. If any Gaming Authority requires the implementation of another mechanism or terms for any Transfers or redemptions of Membership Interests that are inconsistent with Article V of this Agreement, the terms required by such Gaming Authority will control and the applicable provisions of this Agreement will be deemed modified by the Board (without the consent of the Member) in a manner consistent with such requirements, and the Board shall have authority to implement such modifications (without the consent of the Member) at its discretion.
(b) Severability. If any provision of this Section 8.1 or the application of any such provision to any Person or under any circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Section 8.1.
8.2 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified and any provision hereof may be waived only by the Member. If any Gaming Authority with jurisdiction over the Company or its operations, objects to or proposes the modification of, any portion of this Agreement, the Member and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually agreeable accommodation to address such objections or proposed modifications.

8.3 Successors. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Member and its respective legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns.
8.4 Governing Law; Venue; Severability. This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware excluding any conflict-of-laws rule or principle that might refer the governance or the construction of this Agreement to the law of another jurisdiction. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any provision of the Certificate or any mandatory provision of the Act, the applicable provision of the Certificate or the Act shall control. Subject to Section 8.6 and unless the Company otherwise consents in writing to the selection of an alternate forum, any dispute relating hereto shall be heard solely and exclusively in the state or federal courts of Delaware, and each party or Member consents and agrees to jurisdiction and venue therein and not to contest jurisdiction or move for forum non conveniens or otherwise dispute the forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any person may be bring an action (i) to enforce a judgment or order from a state or federal court of Delaware in any court with jurisdiction over the person against whom such judgment or order is being enforced and (ii) for specific performance or injunctive relief in any court with jurisdiction over the person against whom such equitable relief is sought. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
8.5 Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given only (i) when delivered personally to the recipient, (ii) one (1) business day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) provided that confirmation of delivery is received, (iii) upon machine-generated acknowledgment of receipt after transmittal by facsimile (provided that a confirmation copy is sent via reputable overnight courier service for delivery within two (2) business days thereafter), or (iv) five (5) business days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested and postage prepaid), in each case to the addresses or telecopy numbers as have been supplied in writing to the Company.
8.6 MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES HEREUNDER. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

8.7 Complete Agreement; Headings; Construction; Counterparts. This Agreement terminates and supersedes all other agreements concerning the subject matter hereof previously entered into among any of the parties, including the Original Agreement. Descriptive headings are for convenience only and will not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or the plural shall include the singular and the plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, feminine or the neuter gender shall include the masculine, the feminine and the neuter. All references to Articles and Sections refer to articles and sections of this Agreement. Reference in this Agreement to “including,” “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” This Agreement may be executed and delivered by each party hereto in separate counterparts (including by means of facsimile or electronic transmission in portable document format), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original and both of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
8.8 Partition; Appraisal Rights. The Member waives, until termination of the Company, any and all rights that it may have to maintain an action for partition of the Company’s property. Section 18-210 of the Act (entitled “Contractual Appraisal Rights”) shall not apply or be incorporated into this Agreement and the Member hereby expressly waives all rights under Section 18-210 of the Act.
8.9 Third Party Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company and the Member acknowledge and agree that each of the dMY Sponsor and RSI are an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement and may directly enforce (including by an action for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief) Section 3.2, Section 3.5 and Section 5.3 as if the dMY Sponsor and RSI were directly a party hereto.
