Monthly Rental prorated by multiplying the Base Monthly Rental by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in the month (including the Effective Date) for which Rental is being paid, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such month.
Section 4.02. Adjustments. During the Lease Term (including any Extension Term), on the first Adjustment Date and on each Adjustment Date thereafter, the Base Annual Rental shall increase by an amount equal to the Rental Adjustment; provided, however, that in no event shall Base Annual Rental be reduced as a result of the application of the Rental Adjustment.
Section 4.03. Additional Rental. Lessee shall pay and discharge, as additional rental (“Additional Rental”), all sums of money required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease which are not specifically referred to as Rental. Lessee shall pay and discharge any Additional Rental when the same shall become due, provided that amounts which are billed to Lessor or any third party, but not to Lessee, shall be paid within fifteen (15) days after Lessor’s demand for payment thereof or, if later, when the same are due. In no event shall Lessee be required to pay to Lessor any item of Additional Rental that Lessee is obligated to pay and has paid to any third party pursuant to any provision of this Lease.
Section 4.04. Rentals To Be Net to Lessor. The Base Annual Rental payable hereunder shall be net to Lessor, so that this Lease shall yield to Lessor the Rentals specified during the Lease Term, and all Costs and obligations of every kind and nature whatsoever relating to the Properties shall be performed and paid by Lessee. Lessee shall perform all of its obligations under this Lease at its sole cost and expense.

Lessee shall continue to pay all Rental and other Monetary Obligations by Automated Clearing House Debit unless otherwise directed by Lessor.
Section 4.06. Late Charges; Default Interest. Any delinquent payment made over three (3) calendar days after such payment was due, shall, in addition to any other remedy of Lessor, incur a late charge of five percent (5%) (which late charge is intended to compensate Lessor for the cost of handling and processing such delinquent payment and should not be considered interest) and bear interest at the Default Rate, such interest to be computed from and including the date three (3) calendar days after such payment was due through and including the date of the payment; provided, however, in no event shall Lessee be obligated to pay a sum of late charge and interest higher than the maximum legal rate then in effect.
Section 4.07. Holdover. If Lessee remains in possession of the Properties after the expiration of the term hereof, Lessee, at Lessor’s option and within Lessor’s sole discretion, may be deemed a tenant on a month-to-month basis and shall continue to pay Rentals and other Monetary Obligations in the amounts herein provided, except that the Base Monthly Rental shall be automatically increased to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the last Base Monthly Rental payable under this Lease, and Lessee shall

(b) Right to Contest. Within thirty (30) days after each tax and assessment payment is required by this Section 6.01 to be paid, Lessee shall, upon prior written request of Lessor, provide Lessor with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor that such payment was made in a timely fashion. Lessee may, at its own expense, contest or cause to be contested (in the case of any item involving more than $10,000, after prior written notice to Lessor), by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, any above-described item or lien with respect thereto, including, without limitation, the amount or validity or application, in whole or in part, of any such item, provided that (i) neither the Properties nor any interest therein would be in any danger of being sold, forfeited or lost by reason of such proceedings; (ii) no Event of Default has occurred; (iii) Lessee posts a bond or takes other steps acceptable to Lessor that remove such lien or stay enforcement thereof; (iv) Lessee shall promptly provide Lessor with copies of all notices received or delivered by Lessee and filings made by Lessee in connection with such proceeding; and (v) upon termination of such proceedings, it shall be the obligation of Lessee to pay the amount of any such tax and assessment or part thereof as finally determined in such proceedings, the payment of which may have been deferred during the prosecution of such proceedings, together with any costs, fees (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), interest, penalties or other liabilities in connection therewith.
Section 6.02. Utilities.

Section 6.03. Insurance.
(a) Coverage. Throughout the Lease Term, Lessee shall maintain, with respect to each of the Properties, at its sole expense, the following types and amounts of insurance, in addition to such other insurance as Lessor may reasonably require from time to time:
(i) Insurance against loss or damage to real property under an “all risk” insurance policy, which shall include coverage against all risks of direct physical loss, including loss by mechanical breakdown, fire, lightning, ordinance or law, windstorm and hail with a limit satisfactory to Lessor and other risks normally included in the standard ISO special form. Such insurance shall be at an agreed value, without a coinsurance provision, representing 100% of replacement cost, as determined from time to time at Lessor’s request but not more frequently than once in any twelve (12) month period.
(ii) Insurance against loss or damage to real property at the Merced location from flood (both primary federal flood and excess flood, to the extent located within a 100-year flood zone) and earthquake purchased either monoline or through a “differences in conditions” (including excess flood and earthquake) insurance policy. Such insurance shall be in an amount not less than 100% of replacement cost (as determined in accordance with the subparagraph (i) above). Notwithstanding the above provisions, to the extent the Property is located in the State of California or in a “seismic zone” 3 or 4 (as defined in the Uniform Building Code published by the International Conference of
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |

Building Officials) and earthquake insurance in the amount of full replacement cost is not available at commercially reasonable rates, Lessee shall obtain earthquake insurance in an amount not less than the probable maximum loss as determined by a recognized earthquake engineering firm, less a reasonable deductible, not to exceed 5% of full replacement cost.
(iii) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including products and completed operation liability, covering Lessor and Lessee against bodily injury liability, property damage liability and personal and advertising injury, including but not limited to, any liability arising out of the ownership, maintenance, repair, condition or operation of the Property or adjoining ways, streets, parking lots or sidewalks. Such insurance policy or policies shall contain standard contractual liability coverage without limitation, under which the insurer agrees to insure Lessee’s obligations under Article X hereof to the extent insurable, and a “severability of interest” clause or endorsement which precludes the insurer from denying the claim of Lessee or Lessor because of the negligence or other acts of the other, shall be in amounts of not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage, and $5,000,000 general aggregate per location, or such higher limits as Lessor may reasonably require from time to time, and shall be of form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. Such coverage limits may be obtained through a combination of primary and umbrella policies, if and as Lessee may elect.
(iv) Workers’ compensation insurance in the statutorily mandated limits covering all persons employed by Lessee on the Property in connection with any work done on or about any of the Property for which claims for death or bodily injury could be asserted against Lessor, Lessee or the Property.
(v) Rental value insurance, equal to 100% of the Base Annual Rental (as may adjusted hereunder) for a period of not less than twelve (12) months, which insurance shall be carved out of Lessee’s business interruption coverage for a separate rental value insurance payable to Lessor, or if rental value insurance is included in Lessee’s business interruption coverage, the insurer shall provide priority payment to any rent obligations, and such obligations shall be paid directly to Lessor. Such insurance is to follow form of the real property “all risk” coverage and is not to contain a co-insurance clause.
(vi) Such additional and/or other insurance and in such amounts as at the time is customarily carried by prudent owners or tenants with respect to improvements similar in character, location and use and occupancy to the Property.
(b) Insurance Provisions. All insurance policies shall:
(i) provide (A) for a waiver of subrogation by the insurer as to claims against Lessor, its employees and agents; (B) that the insurer shall not deny a claim and that such insurance cannot be unreasonably cancelled, invalidated or suspended on account of the conduct of Lessee, its officers, directors, employees or agents, or anyone acting for Lessee or any subtenant or other occupant of the Properties; and (C) that any losses otherwise payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or omission of Lessor or Lessee which might, absent such provision, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment;
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
7 |
(ii) be primary and provide that any “other insurance” clause in the insurance policy shall exclude any policies of insurance maintained by Lessor and the insurance policy shall not be brought into contribution with insurance maintained by Lessor;
(iii) contain deductibles not to exceed $100,000.00 for all coverages, except excess flood and earthquake insurance which may have a 5% of replacement cost deductible;
(iv) contain a standard non-contributory mortgagee clause or endorsement in favor of any Lender designated by Lessor;
(v) provide that the policy of insurance shall not be terminated, cancelled or amended without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lessor and to any Lender covered by any standard mortgagee clause or endorsement;
(vi) provide that the insurer shall not have the option to restore the Properties if Lessor elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with the terms hereof;
(vii) be in amounts sufficient at all times to satisfy any coinsurance requirements thereof;
(viii) except for workers’ compensation insurance referred to in Section 6.03(a)(iii) above, name Lessor and any Lessor Affiliate or Lender requested by Lessor, as an “additional insured” with respect to general liability insurance, as a “named insured” with respect to real property, and as a “loss payee” with respect to all real property and rental value insurance, as appropriate and as their interests may appear;
(ix) be evidenced by delivery to Lessor and any Lender designated by Lessor of an Xxxxx Form 28 for property coverage (or any other form requested by Lessor) and an Xxxxx Form 25 for liability, workers’ compensation and umbrella coverage (or any other form requested by Lessor); provided that in the event that either such form is no longer available, such evidence of insurance shall be in a similar form reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and any Lender designated by Lessor; and
(x) be issued by insurance companies licensed to do business in the states where the Properties are located and which are rated A:VIII or better by Best’s Insurance Guide or are otherwise reasonably approved by Lessor; provided, however, earthquake and excess flood insurance may be acquired from insurance carriers not admitted in the applicable state or rated A- or better by Best’s Insurance Guide.
(c) Additional Obligations. It is expressly understood and agreed that (i) if any insurance required hereunder, or any part thereof, shall expire, be withdrawn, become void by breach of any condition thereof by Lessee, or become void or in jeopardy by reason of the failure or impairment of the capital of any insurer, Lessee shall immediately obtain new or additional insurance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and any Lender designated by Lessor; (ii) the minimum limits of insurance coverage set forth in this Section 6.03 shall not limit the liability of
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
8 |
Lessee for its acts or omissions as provided in this Lease; (iii) Lessee shall procure policies for all insurance for periods of not less than one year (except at the beginning and end of the term of this Lease if less than one year) and shall provide to Lessor and any servicer or Lender of Lessor certificates of insurance or, upon Lessor’s request, duplicate originals of insurance policies evidencing that insurance satisfying the requirements of this Lease is in effect at all times; (iv) Lessee shall pay as they become due all premiums for the insurance required by this Section 6.03; and (v) in the event that Lessee fails to comply with any of the requirements set forth in this Section 6.03, within ten (10) days of the giving of written notice by Lessor to Lessee, (A) Lessor shall be entitled to procure such insurance; and (B) any sums expended by Lessor in procuring such insurance shall be Additional Rental and shall be repaid by Lessee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, from the time of payment by Lessor until fully paid by Lessee immediately upon written demand therefor by Lessor.
(d) Blanket Policies. Anything in this Section 6.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, any insurance which Lessee is required to obtain pursuant to this Section 6.03 may be carried under a “blanket” policy or policies covering other properties or liabilities of Lessee provided that such “blanket” policy or policies otherwise comply with the provisions of this Section 6.03.
(e) Policy Changes. Lessee may from time to time change the coverages (including deductibles) required hereunder to respond to changes in the insurance market; provided, however, that Lessee may not vary from the coverages (and deductibles) required hereunder without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Section 6.04. Tax and Insurance Impound. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and with respect to each Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies, Lessor may require Lessee to pay to Lessor sums which will provide an impound account (which shall not be deemed a trust fund) for paying up to the next one year of taxes, assessments and/or insurance premiums. Upon such requirement, Lessor will estimate and notify Lessee of the amounts needed for such purposes, and Lessee shall pay the same to Lessor within ten (10) days of Lessor’s notice thereof. Should additional funds be required at any time, Lessee shall pay the same to Lessor within ten (10) days after demand. Lessee shall advise Lessor of all taxes and insurance bills which are due and shall cooperate fully with Lessor in assuring that the same are paid. Lessor may deposit all impounded funds in accounts insured by any federal or state agency and may commingle such funds with other funds and accounts of Lessor. Interest or other gains from such funds, if any, shall be the sole property of Lessor. In the event of any default by Lessee, Lessor may apply all impounded funds against any sums due from Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall give to Lessee an annual accounting showing all credits and debits to and from such impounded funds received from Lessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Lessee has remained free from an Event of Default for a period of one (1) year, Lessor shall promptly return to Lessee any sums held in any such impound account.

Lessee waives any right to require Lessor to maintain, repair or rebuild all or any part of the Properties or make repairs at the expense of Lessor pursuant to any Legal Requirements at any time in effect.
Section 7.02. Alterations and Improvements. During the Lease Term, Lessee shall not alter the exterior, structural, plumbing or electrical elements of the Properties in any manner without the consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, Lessee may undertake structural, exterior, plumbing and electrical alterations, which may include the construction and demolition of additional improvements to the Properties (if such demolition does not unreasonably impair the ability to operate the Permitted Facility on the applicable Property, does not effect any improvements located on the applicable Property as of the Effective Date and is at Lessee’s sole cost and expense), individually, costing less than $500,000, as adjusted by changes in the Price Index, without Lessor’s prior written consent. Lessee may undertake any non-structural alteration to the Properties, so long as Lessee provides Lessor with fourteen (14) days prior written notice of such alterations, if greater than $10,000, as adjusted by changes in the Price Index. If Lessor’s consent is required hereunder and Lessor consents to the making of any such alterations, the same shall be made by Lessee at Lessee’s sole expense by a licensed contractor (which may be directly subcontracted with by Lessee) and according to plans and specifications approved by Lessor and subject to such other conditions as Lessor shall reasonably require. Any work at any time commenced by Lessee on the Properties shall be prosecuted diligently to completion, shall be of good workmanship and materials and shall comply fully with all the terms of this Lease and all Legal Requirements. Lessor shall reasonably cooperate with all improvements including, without limitation, signing applications. Upon completion of any alterations individually costing $10,000 or more, as adjusted by changes in the Price Index, Lessee shall promptly provide Lessor with evidence of full payment to all laborers and materialmen contributing to the alterations. Additionally, upon completion of any such alterations, Lessee shall promptly provide Lessor with (a) an architect’s certificate certifying the alterations to have been completed in conformity with the plans and specifications (if the alterations are of such a nature as would require the issuance of such a certificate from the architect); (b) a certificate of occupancy (if the alterations are of such a nature as would require the issuance of a certificate of occupancy); and (c) any other documents or information reasonably requested by Lessor. Lessee shall keep the Properties free from any liens arising out of any work performed on, or materials furnished to, the Properties. Lessee shall execute and file or record, as appropriate, a “Notice of Non-Responsibility,” or any equivalent notice permitted under applicable law in the states where the Properties are located which provides that Lessor is not responsible for the payment of any costs or expenses relating to the additions or alterations. Any addition to or alteration of the Properties shall be deemed a part of the Properties and belong to Lessor, and Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor such instruments as Lessor may require to evidence the ownership by Lessor of such addition or alteration.
Section 7.03. Expansion of Facilities. Lessor agrees to consider reimbursement of Lessee’s costs for an expansion of the Permitted Facilities, provided that Lessor and Lessee shall have entered into a reimbursement agreement with mutually agreeable terms and conditions and, at the time of Lessee’s request for such reimbursement: (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Lease; (b) such expansion is completed in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 7.02 of

Section 8.02. Alternative Use. Lessee shall not, by itself or through any assignment, sublease or other type of transfer, convert any of the Properties to an alternative use during the Lease Term without Lessor’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Lessor’s consent shall not be deemed unreasonably withheld if Lessor’s decision is based on any or all of the following: (a) whether the converted use will increase Lessor’s risks or decrease the value of such Property; and (b) whether the converted use will adversely affect Lessor’s status as a REIT or Lessor’s ability to complete a Securitization.
Section 8.03. Compliance. Lessee’s use and occupation of each of the Properties, and the condition thereof, shall, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, comply fully with all Legal Requirements and all restrictions, covenants and encumbrances of record, and any owner obligations under such Legal Requirements, or restrictions, covenants and encumbrances of record, with respect to the Properties, in either event, the failure with which to comply could have a Material Adverse Effect. Without in any way limiting the foregoing provisions, Lessee shall comply with all Legal Requirements relating to anti-terrorism, trade embargos, economic sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering Laws, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as such act may be amended from time to time, and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as it affects the Properties now or hereafter in effect. Upon Lessor’s written request from time to time during the Lease Term, Lessee shall certify in writing to Lessor that Lessee’s representations, warranties and obligations under Section 5.08 and this Section 8.03 remain true and correct (or shall specify any exceptions thereto) and have not otherwise been breached. Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor in writing if any of such representations, warranties or covenants are no longer true or have been breached or if Lessee has a reasonable basis to believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached. In connection with such an event, Lessee shall comply with all Legal Requirements and directives of Governmental Authorities and, at Lessor’s request, provide to Lessor copies of all notices, reports and other communications exchanged with, or received from, Governmental Authorities relating to such an event. Lessee shall also reimburse Lessor for all Costs incurred by Lessor in evaluating the

Lessee will use its best efforts to prevent any act or condition to exist on or about the Properties which will materially increase any insurance rate thereon, except when such acts are required in the normal course of its business and Lessee shall pay for such increase. Lessee agrees that it will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses caused by, incurred or resulting from Lessee’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section.

(ii) Lessee shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute restoration of such Property to the same condition, as nearly as practicable, as prior to such Partial Condemnation or Casualty as approved by Lessor. Upon the written request of Lessee (accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor that such amount has been paid or is due and payable and is properly part of such costs, and that Lessee has complied with the terms of Section 7.02 in connection with the restoration), Lessor shall promptly make available in installments, subject to reasonable conditions for disbursement imposed by Lessor, an amount up to but not exceeding the amount of any Net Award (after deducting all Costs incidental to the collection of the Net Award) received by Lessor with respect to such Partial Condemnation or Casualty.

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained in this Section 11.02, in the event that, as a result of such Casualty, Lessee shall reasonably estimate in the exercise of commercially reasonable judgment that it will be unable to use such damaged Property for the customary operation of Lessee’s business for more than one hundred eighty (180) days and such Casualty has occurred in the last two (2) years of the Term or any extension of the Term, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Lessee shall have the right, exercisable by written notice given to Lessor no later than thirty (30) days following such Casualty, to cause Lessor to modify this Lease to remove the damaged Property (and reduce the Base Annual Rental pursuant to the terms below) and, following such removal, Lessee shall have no further responsibility to Lessor with respect to such damaged Property, except for such indemnity or other provisions of this Lease which may. relate to such damaged Property.

Upon removal of a Property pursuant to this Section 11.02(e), the Base Annual Rental shall be adjusted by multiplying the then current Base Annual Rental by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total value of the retained Property (determined by the gross purchase price allocated to the particular Property by Lessor at the time of Lessor’s acquisition of the Property), the denominator of which is the total value for all of the Properties (determined by the gross purchase price allocated to the Properties by Lessor at the time of Lessor’s acquisition of the Properties).

(a) Termination of Lease. All obligations of either party hereunder with respect to the applicable Property shall cease as of the date of the Total Condemnation; provided, however, that Lessee’s obligations to the Indemnified Parties under any indemnification provisions of this Lease with respect to such Property and Lessee’s obligation to pay Rental and all other Monetary Obligations (whether payable to Lessor or a third party) accruing under this Lease with respect to such Property prior to the date of termination shall survive such termination. If the date of such Total Condemnation is other than the first day of a month, the Base Annual Rental for the month in which such Total Condemnation occurs shall be apportioned based on the date of the Total Condemnation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Section 11.05 to the contrary, but subject to the terms and provisions of the Mortgages, if at the time of any Condemnation or any Casualty or at any time thereafter an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessor is hereby authorized and empowered but shall not be obligated, in the name and on behalf of Lessee and otherwise, to file and prosecute Lessee’s claim, if any, for a Net Award on account of such Condemnation or such Casualty and to collect such Net Award and apply the same to the curing of such Event of Default and any other then existing Event of Default under this Lease and/or to the payment of any amounts owed by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease, in such order, priority and proportions as Lessor in its discretion shall deem proper.
Section 11.06. Lessee Obligation in Event of Casualty. During all periods of time following a Casualty, Lessee shall take reasonable steps to ensure that the related Property is secure and does not pose any risk of harm to any adjoining property and Persons (including owners or occupants of such adjoining property).

ARTICLE XII
DEFAULT, CONDITIONAL LIMITATIONS,
REMEDIES AND MEASURE OF DAMAGES.
Section 12.01. Event of Default. Each of the following shall be an event of default by Lessee under this Lease (each, an “Event of Default”):
(a) if any representation or warranty of Lessee set forth in this Lease is false in any material respect when made, or if Lessee renders any false statement or account when made;
(b) if any Rental or other Monetary Obligation due under this Lease is not paid when due and such failure to pay Rental or other Monetary Obligation continues for three (3) calendar days after the due date, provided, however. this three (3) calendar day cure period shall only be available once in a twelve (12) month period;
(c) if Lessee fails to pay, prior to delinquency, any taxes, assessments or other charges the failure of which to pay will result in the imposition of a lien against any of the Properties;
(d) if there is an Insolvency Event affecting Lessee;
(e) if Lessee vacates or abandons any Property;
(f) if Lessee fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants, conditions or obligations of Lessee in this Lease; provided, however, if any such failure does not involve the payment of any Monetary Obligation, is not willful or intentional, does not place any Property or any rights or property of Lessor in immediate jeopardy, and is within the reasonable power of Lessee to promptly cure, all as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, then such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, unless and until Lessor shall have given Lessee notice thereof and a period of thirty (30) days shall have elapsed, during which period Lessee may correct or cure such failure, upon failure of which an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind being required. If such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30)-day period, as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, and Lessee is diligently pursuing a cure of such failure, then Lessee shall have a reasonable period to cure such failure beyond such thirty (30)-day period, which shall in no event exceed ninety (90) days after receiving notice of such failure from Lessor. If Lessee shall fail to correct or cure such failure within such ninety (90)-day period, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind being required;
(g) if a final, nonappealable judgment is rendered by a court against Lessee which has a Material Adverse Effect, and is not discharged or provision made for such discharge within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of entry thereof;
(h) if Lessee shall be liquidated or dissolved or shall begin proceedings towards its liquidation or dissolution;
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
21 |
(i) if the estate or interest of Lessee in any of the Properties shall be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and such estate or interest is about to be sold or transferred or such process shall not be vacated or discharged within one hundred twenty (120) days after it is made; or
(j) if there is an “Event of Default” or other breach or default by Lessee under any of the other Transaction Documents or any Other Agreement, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods.
Section 12.02. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, with or without notice or demand, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or such other notice as may be required by statute and cannot be waived by Lessee, Lessor shall be entitled to exercise, at its option, concurrently, successively, or in any combination, all remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, any one or more of the following:
(a) to terminate this Lease, whereupon Lessee’s right to possession of the Properties shall cease and this Lease, except as to Lessee’s liability, shall be terminated;
(b) to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, to (i) re-enter and take possession of the Properties (or any part thereof), excluding any or all personal property or fixtures of Lessee upon the Properties (subject to Section 3.04) and, to the extent permissible, all permits and other rights or privileges of Lessee pertaining to the use and operation of the Properties, and in connection therewith, Lessee hereby agrees and covenants that, upon the request of Lessor, Lessee shall execute and deliver such documents and take all actions as are necessary to permit Lessor or its designee to continue the operation of Properties, and if Lessee shall fail or refuse to effect such transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.02(b) within ten (10) days following a request by Lessor, Lessee irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lessor as its attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver all necessary documents to any third party to effect the same, it being stipulated that such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and binding, and (ii) expel Lessee and those claiming under or through Lessee, without being deemed guilty in any manner of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, without resort to legal or judicial process, procedure or action. No notice from Lessor hereunder or under a forcible entry and detainer statute or similar law shall constitute an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. If Lessee shall, after default, voluntarily give up possession of the Properties to Lessor, deliver to Lessor or its agents the keys to the Properties, or both, such actions shall be deemed to be in compliance with Lessor’s rights and the acceptance thereof by Lessor or its agents shall not be deemed to constitute a termination of the Lease. Lessor reserves the right following any re-entry and/or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee written notice thereof, in which event this Lease will terminate;
(c) to bring an action against Lessee for any damages sustained by Lessor or any equitable relief available to Lessor and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, to seize all abandoned personal property or fixtures upon the Properties which Lessee owns or in which it has an interest, and to dispose thereof in accordance with the laws prevailing at the time and place of such seizure or to remove all or any portion of such property and cause the same to be stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at Lessee’s sole expense, without becoming liable for any loss or damage resulting therefrom and without resorting to legal or judicial process, procedure or action;
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
22 |
(d) to relet the Properties or any part thereof for such term or terms (including a term which extends beyond the original Lease Term), at such rentals and upon such other terms as Lessor, in its sole discretion, may determine, with all proceeds received from such reletting being applied to the Rental and other Monetary Obligations due from Lessee in such order as Lessor may, in it sole discretion, determine, which other Monetary Obligations include, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and expenses, alteration, remodeling and repair costs and expenses of preparing for such reletting. Except to the extent required by applicable Law, Lessor shall have no obligation to relet the Properties or any part thereof and shall in no event be liable for refusal or failure to relet the Properties or any part thereof, or, in the event of any such reletting, for refusal or failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting, and no such refusal or failure shall operate to relieve Lessee of any liability under this Lease or otherwise to affect any such liability. Lessor reserves the right following any re-entry and/or reletting to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee written notice thereof, in which event this Lease will terminate as specified in said notice;
(e) to accelerate and recover from Lessee the present value of all Rental and other Monetary Obligations due and owing and scheduled to become due and owing under this Lease both before and after the date of such breach for the entire original scheduled Lease Term;
(f) to recover from Lessee all Costs paid or incurred by Lessor as a result of such breach, regardless of whether or not legal proceedings are actually commenced;
(g) to immediately or at any time thereafter, and with or without notice, at Lessor’s sole option but without any obligation to do so, correct such breach or default and charge Lessee all Costs incurred by Lessor therein. Any sum or sums so paid by Lessor, together with interest at the Default Rate, shall be deemed to be Additional Rental hereunder and shall be immediately due from Lessee to Lessor. Any such acts by Lessor in correcting Lessee’s breaches or defaults hereunder shall not be deemed to cure said breaches or defaults or constitute any waiver of Lessor’s right to exercise any or all remedies set forth herein;
(h) to immediately or at any time thereafter, and with or without notice, except as required herein, set off any money of Lessee held by Lessor under this Lease or any other Transaction Document or any Other Agreement against any sum owing by Lessee hereunder; and/or
(i) to seek any equitable relief available to Lessor, including, without limitation, the right of specific performance.
Section 12.03. Cumulative Remedies. All powers and remedies given by Section 12.02 to Lessor, subject to applicable Law, shall be cumulative and not exclusive of one another or of any other right or remedy or of any other powers and remedies available to Lessor under this Lease, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements of Lessee contained in this Lease, and no delay or omission of Lessor to exercise any right or power accruing upon the occurrence of any Event of Default shall impair any other or subsequent Event of Default or impair any rights or remedies consequent thereto. Every power and remedy given by this Section or by Law to Lessor may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by Lessor, subject at all times to Lessor’s right in its sole judgment to discontinue any work commenced by Lessor or change any course of action undertaken by Lessor.

23 |
Section 12.04. Lessee Waiver. Lessee hereby expressly waives, for itself and all Persons claiming by, through and under Lessee, including creditors of all kinds, (a) any right and privilege which Lessee has under any present or future Legal Requirements to redeem the Properties or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Lease Term after termination of Lessee’s right of occupancy by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, or under the terms of this Lease; (b) the benefits of any present or future Legal Requirement that exempts property from liability for debt or for distress for rent; (c) any present or future Legal Requirement relating to notice or delay in levy of execution in case of eviction of a tenant for nonpayment of rent; and (d) any benefits and lien rights which may arise pursuant to any present or future Legal Requirement.
ARTICLE XIII
MORTGAGE, SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT
Section 13.01. No Liens. Lessor’s interest in this Lease and/or the Properties shall not be subordinate to any liens or encumbrances placed upon the Properties by or resulting from any act of Lessee, and nothing herein contained shall be construed to require such subordination by Lessor. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT LESSEE IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PLACE OR ALLOW TO BE PLACED ANY LIEN, MORTGAGE, DEED OF TRUST, DEED TO SECURE DEBT, SECURITY INTEREST OR ENCUMBRANCE OF ANY KIND UPON ALL OR ANY PART OF THE PROPERTIES OR LESSEE’S LEASEHOLD INTEREST THEREIN, AND ANY SUCH PURPORTED TRANSACTION SHALL BE VOID; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, LESSEE MAY PLACE A MORTGAGE, DEED OF TRUST, SECURITY INTEREST OR ENCUMBRANCE ON LESSEE’S LEASEHOLD INTEREST WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF LESSOR, SUCH CONSENT NOT TO BE UNREASONABLY WITHHELD, CONDITIONED OR DELAYED. THE PARTIES AGREE FURTHER TO NEGOTIATE IN GOOD FAITH WITH RESPECT TO THE TERMS OF ANY SUCH LEASEHOLD MORTGAGE DOCUMENTATION.
Section 13.02. Subordination. This Lease at all times shall automatically be subordinate to the lien of any and all ground leases and Mortgages now or hereafter placed upon any of the Properties by Lessor, and Lessee covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand, such further instruments subordinating this Lease to the lien of any or all such ground leases and Mortgages as shall be desired by Lessor, or any present or proposed mortgagees under trust deeds, upon the condition that Lessee shall have the right to remain in possession of the Properties under the terms of this Lease, notwithstanding any default in any or all such ground leases or Mortgages, or after the foreclosure of any such Mortgages, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Lessor agrees to use its best efforts to provide Lessee with a SNDA executed by each Lender holding a Mortgage, and Lessee agrees to promptly execute and return such SNDA to Lessor. In the event of a conflict between the Mortgage and this Lease, this Lease shall control.
Section 13.03. Election To Declare Lease Superior. If any mortgagee, receiver or other secured party elects to have this Lease and the interest of Lessee hereunder, be superior to any Mortgage and evidences such election by notice given to Lessee, then this Lease and the interest of Lessee hereunder shall be deemed superior to any such Mortgage, whether this Lease was executed before or after such Mortgage and in that event such mortgagee, receiver or other secured party shall have the same rights with respect to this Lease as if it had been executed and delivered prior to the execution and delivery of such Mortgage and had been assigned to such mortgagee, receiver or other secured party.
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
24 |
Section 13.04. Attornment. In the event any purchaser or assignee of any Lender at a foreclosure sale acquires title to any of the Properties, or in the event that any Lender or any purchaser or assignee otherwise succeeds to the rights of Lessor as landlord under this Lease, Lessee shall attorn to Lender or such purchaser or assignee, as the case may be (a “Successor Lessor”), and recognize the Successor Lessor as lessor under this Lease, and, subject to the provisions of this Article XIII, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Lessor and Lessee, provided that the Successor Lessor shall only be liable for any obligations of Lessor under this Lease which accrue after the date that such Successor Lessor acquires title. The foregoing provision shall be self-operative and effective without the execution of any further instruments.
Section 13.05. Execution of Additional Documents. Although the provisions in this Article XIII shall be self-operative and no future instrument of subordination shall be required, upon request by Lessor Lessee shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes.
Section 13.06. Notice to Lender. Lessee shall give written notice to any Lender having a recorded lien upon any of the Properties or any part thereof of which Lessee has been notified of any breach or default by Lessor of any of its obligations under this Lease and give such Lender at least sixty (60) days beyond any notice period to which Lessor might be entitled to cure such default before Lessee may exercise any remedy with respect thereto.
ARTICLE XIV
ASSIGNMENT
Section 14.01. Assignment by Lessor. As a material inducement to Lessor’s willingness to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Lease (the “Transaction”) and the other Transaction Documents, Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor may, from time to time and at any time and without the consent of Lessee, engage in all or any combination of the following, or enter into agreements in connection with any of the following or in accordance with requirements that may be imposed by applicable securities, tax or other Laws: (a) the sale, assignment, grant, conveyance, transfer, financing, re-financing, purchase or re-acquisition of all, less than all or any portion of the Properties, this Lease or any other Transaction Document, Lessor’s right, title and interest in this Lease or any other Transaction Document, the servicing rights with respect to any of the foregoing, or participations in any of the foregoing; or (b) a Securitization and related transactions. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Lessor, in its sole discretion, may assign this Lease or any interest herein to another Person (including without limitation, a taxable REIT subsidiary) in order to maintain Lessor’s or any of its Affiliates’ status as a REIT. In the event of any such sale or assignment other than a security assignment, Lessee shall attorn to such purchaser or assignee (so long as Lessor and such purchaser or assignee notify Lessee in writing of such transfer and such purchaser or assignee expressly assumes in writing the obligations of Lessor hereunder from and after the date of such assignment). At the request of Lessor, Lessee will execute such documents confirming the sale, assignment or other transfer and such other agreements as Lessor may reasonably request and at Lessor’s expense, so long as such expenses are documented reasonable third-party costs, provided that the same do not increase the liabilities and obligations of Lessee hereunder. Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lessor contained herein, except for obligations or liabilities accrued prior to such assignment or sale.
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
25 |
Section 14.02. No Assignment by Lessee. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has relied both on the business experience and creditworthiness of Lessee and upon the particular purposes for which Lessee intends to use the Properties in entering into this Lease. Except as provided below or in Section 13.01, Lessee shall not assign, transfer, convey, pledge or mortgage this Lease or any interest therein or in Lessee constituting any Change in Control (defined below), whether by operation of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, considering such matters as the experience and financial strength of any assignee, the assumption by any assignee of all of Lessee’s obligations hereunder by undertakings enforceable by Lessor, and the transfer to or procurement of all necessary licenses and franchises to an assignee in order to continue operating the Properties. At the time of any assignment of this Lease which is approved by Lessor, the assignee shall assume all of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease pursuant to a written assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lessor. Such assignment of the Properties shall not relieve Lessee of its obligations respecting this Lease unless otherwise agreed to by Lessor. Any assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge or mortgage in violation of this Section 14.02 shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor. Any consent to an assignment given by Lessor hereunder shall not be deemed a consent to any subsequent assignment.
Section 14.03. No Subletting. Lessee shall have the right to sublet all or a portion of the Properties without the prior written consent of Lessor, provided Lessee delivers prior written notice to Lessor of such sublet and such sublet shall not relieve Lessee of its obligations under this Lease.
Section 14.04. Permitted Assignment. Subject to the requirements of Section 14.06, Lessee shall be permitted, without the prior written consent of Lessor, to assign the Lease, including by Change in Control, to a Qualified Operator. A “Qualified Operator” shall mean a Person that (1) has a CFCCR of at least 1.50:1 and (2) its Effective Debt divided by EBITDAR does not exceed 6.7:1. Upon any such assignment permitted under this Section 14.04, Lessee shall be released of any liability under this Lease accruing on or after the date of such assignment.
Section 14.05. Change in Control. Any Person or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act) pursuant to a single transaction or series of transactions: (i) acquiring, directly or indirectly, more than Fifty Percent (50%) of the voting stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other equitable and/or beneficial interests of Lessee, or (ii) obtaining, directly or indirectly, the power (whether or not exercised) to (x) direct or cause the direction of the management policies of Lessee, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise or (y) elect a majority of the directors of Lessee or voting control of any entity acting as general partner or managing member of Lessee (including through merger or consolidation of Lessee with or into any other Person).
Section 14.06. Additional Limitation on Lessee Assignment, Subletting and Change in Control. In no event shall Lessee be permitted to assign or sublet this Lease as provided in Section 14.02, 14.03, 14.04 unless (1) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing beyond any applicable cure period, and (2) immediately prior to the effective date of such assignment, sublease or Change in Control, Lessee has provided Lessor written notice of same, along with an officer’s certificate (the “Officer’s Certificate”) executed by an officer of the assignee, sublessee or Lessee certifying that none of the parties identified by Lessor as a ten percent (10%) shareholder of Lessor (on a written list certified by Lessor and to be provided to Lessee following request of Lessee in connection with any proposed assignment, sublease or Change in Control) owns, directly or, to the assignee’s or sublessee’s or Lessee’s actual knowledge after such assignee or sublessee or Lessee has made inquiry of its officer or similar person that is responsible for maintaining records regarding direct ownership of such assignee or sublessee or Lessee,
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
26 |
indirectly, (1) ten percent (10%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of voting capital stock of the assignee or sublessee or Lessee, as the case may be, or (2) ten percent (10%) or more of the total value of all classes of capital stock of the assignee or sublessee or Lessee, as the case may be. Lessor shall provide the written list described in the preceding sentence within five (5) business days of written request therefore by Lessee and, in the absence of timely provision of such list, such officer’s certificate shall be based on the latest written list delivered by Lessor to Lessee.
ARTICLE XV

ARTICLE XVII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 17.01. Force Majeure. Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes, lockouts, acts of God, enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion, fire or other casualty beyond the control of the party obligated to perform (each, a “Force Majeure Event”) shall excuse the performance by such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage, expressly excluding, however, the obligations imposed upon Lessee with respect to Rental and other Monetary Obligations to be paid hereunder.
Section 17.02. No Merger. There shall be no merger of this Lease nor of the leasehold estate created by this Lease with the fee estate in or ownership of any of the Properties by reason of the fact that the same person, corporation, firm or other entity may acquire or hold or own, directly or indirectly, (a) this Lease or the leasehold estate created by this Lease or any interest in this Lease or in such leasehold estate, and (b) the fee estate or ownership of any of the Properties or any interest in such fee estate or ownership. No such merger shall occur unless and until all persons, corporations, firms and other entities
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
28 |
having any interest in (i) this Lease or the leasehold estate created by this Lease, and (ii) the fee estate in or ownership of the Properties or any part thereof sought to be merged shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly record the same.
Section 17.03. Interpretation. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and warrant to each other that each has been represented by independent counsel and has executed this Lease after being fully advised by said counsel as to its effect and significance. This Lease shall be interpreted and construed in a fair and impartial manner without regard to such factors as the party which prepared the instrument, the relative bargaining powers of the parties or the domicile of any party. Whenever in this Lease any words of obligation or duty are used, such words or expressions shall have the same force and effect as though made in the form of a covenant. Where Lessor consent is required, it shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless an Event of Default has occurred.
Section 17.04. Characterization. The following expressions of intent, representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, stipulations and waivers are a material inducement to Lessor entering into this Lease:
(a) Lessor and Lessee intend that (i) this Lease constitutes an unseverable, unitary and single lease of all, but not less than all, of the Properties, and, if at any time this Lease covers other real property in addition to the Properties, neither this Lease, nor Lessee’s obligations or rights hereunder may be allocated or otherwise divided among such properties by Lessee; (ii) this Lease is a “true lease,” is not a financing lease, capital lease, mortgage, equitable mortgage, deed of trust, trust agreement, security agreement or other financing or trust arrangement, and the economic realities of this Lease are those of a true lease; and (iii) the business relationship created by this Lease and any related documents is solely that of a long-term commercial lease between Lessor and Lessee, the Lease has been entered into by both parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains contained herein, and none of the agreements contained herein is intended, nor shall the same be deemed or construed, to create a partnership (de facto or de jure) between Lessor and Lessee, to make them joint venturers, to make Lessee an agent, legal representative, partner, subsidiary or employee of Lessor, nor to make Lessor in any way responsible for the debts, obligations or losses of Lessee.
(b) Lessor and Lessee covenant and agree that: (i) each will treat this Lease as an operating lease pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, as amended, and as a true lease for state law reporting purposes and for federal income tax purposes; (ii) each party will not, nor will it permit any Affiliate under its control to, at any time, take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the preparation or filing of any statement or disclosure to Governmental Authority, including without limitation, any income tax return (including an amended income tax return), to the extent that such action or such failure to take action would be inconsistent with the intention of the parties expressed in this Section 17.04 except as otherwise required by law; (iii) with respect to the Properties, the Lease Term is less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the estimated remaining economic life of the Properties; and (iv) the Base Annual Rental is the fair market value for the use of the Properties and was agreed to by Lessor and Lessee on that basis, and the execution and delivery of, and the performance by Lessee of its obligations under, this Lease do not constitute a transfer of all or any part of the Properties.
(c) Lessee waives any claim or defense based upon the characterization of this Lease as anything other than a true lease and as a master lease of all of the Properties. Lessee stipulates and agrees (i) not to challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of the lease of the
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
29 |
Properties as a true lease and/or as a single, unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to the lease of all, but not less than all, of the Properties; and (ii) not to assert or take or omit to take any action inconsistent with the agreements and understandings set forth in this Section 17.04.
Section 17.05. Disclosure. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessor shall not disclose information regarding Lessee or any Lessee Entity obtained under the provisions of this Lease; provided, however, Lessor (and each employee, representative or other agent of Lessor) may disclose information to potential equity and debt financing sources that Lessor believes is reasonably required to be disclosed in connection with any equity or debt offering of Lessor or as may be required under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall any financial information obtained by Lessor pursuant to this Lease be disclosed to any party that competes directly with Lessee in the boat manufacturing industry.
Section 17.06. Bankruptcy. As a material inducement to Lessor executing this Lease, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor is relying upon (a) the financial condition and specific operating experience of Lessee and Lessee’s obligation to use the Properties as Permitted Facilities; (b) Lessee’s timely performance of all of its obligations under this Lease notwithstanding the entry of an order for relief under the Bankruptcy Code for Lessee; and (c) all defaults under this Lease being cured promptly and this Lease being assumed within sixty (60) days of any order for relief entered under the Bankruptcy Code for Lessee, or this Lease being rejected within such sixty (60)-day period and the Properties surrendered to Lessor. Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Lease and for other good and valuable consideration, Lessee hereby agrees that: (i) all obligations that accrue under this Lease (including the obligation to pay Rentals), from and after an Insolvency Event shall be timely performed exactly as provided in this Lease and any failure to so perform shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (ii) any and all Rentals that accrue from and after an Insolvency Event and that are not paid as required by this Lease shall, in the amount of such Rentals, constitute administrative expense claims allowable under the Bankruptcy Code with priority of payment at least equal to that of any other actual and necessary expenses incurred after an Insolvency Event; (iii) any extension of the time period within which Lessee may assume or reject this Lease without an obligation to cause all obligations under this Lease to be performed as and when required under this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (iv) any time period designated as the period within which Lessee must cure all defaults and compensate Lessor for all pecuniary losses which extends beyond the date of assumption of this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (v) any assignment of this Lease must result in all terms and conditions of this Lease being assumed by the assignee without alteration or amendment, and any assignment which results in an amendment or alteration of the terms and conditions of this Lease without the express written consent of Lessor shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor; (vi) any proposed assignment of this Lease shall be harmful and prejudicial to Lessor if made to an assignee that does not possess financial condition adequate to operate Permitted Facilities upon the Properties or operating performance and experience characteristics satisfactory to Lessor equal to or better than the financial condition, operating performance and experience of Lessee as of the Effective Date; and (vii) the rejection (or deemed rejection) of this Lease for any reason whatsoever shall constitute cause for immediate relief from the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and Lessee stipulates that such automatic stay shall be lifted immediately and possession of the Properties will be delivered to Lessor immediately without the necessity of any further action by Lessor. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of Lessor’s rights or remedies under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable Law to oppose any assumption and/or assignment of this Lease, to require timely performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, or to regain possession of the Properties as a result of the failure of Lessee to comply with the terms and conditions of this Lease or the Bankruptcy Code. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts payable by Lessee to or on behalf of Lessor under this Lease, whether or not expressly
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
30 |
denominated as such, shall constitute “rent” for the purposes of the Bankruptcy Code. For purposes of this Section addressing the rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee upon an Insolvency Event, the term “Lessee” shall include Lessee’s successor in bankruptcy, whether a trustee, Lessee as debtor in possession or other responsible person.
Section 17.07. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any judicial or other adversarial proceeding concerning this Lease, to the extent permitted by Law, Lessor shall be entitled to recover all of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other Costs in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled. In addition, Lessor shall, upon demand, be entitled to all attorneys’ fees and all other Costs incurred in the preparation and service of any notice or demand hereunder, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced.
Section 17.08. Memoranda of Lease. Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Lessor and Lessee are executing Lessor’s standard form memorandum of lease in recordable form, indicating the names and addresses of Lessor and Lessee, a description of the Properties, the Lease Term, but omitting Rentals and such other terms of this Lease as Lessor may not desire to disclose to the public. Further, upon Lessor’s request, Lessee agrees to execute and acknowledge a termination of lease and/or quitclaim deed in recordable form to be held by Lessor until the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term; provided, however, if Lessee shall fail or refuse to sign such a document in accordance with the provisions of this Section within ten (10) days following a request by Lessor, Lessee irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lessor as its attorney-in-fact to execute and record such document, it being stipulated that such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and binding.
Section 17.09. No Brokerage. Lessor and Lessee represent and warrant to each other that they have had no conversation or negotiations with any broker other than Patriot Capital Advisors, LLC concerning the leasing of the Properties. Each of Lessor and Lessee agrees to protect, indemnify, save and keep harmless the other, against and from all liabilities, claims, losses, Costs, damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of, resulting from or in connection with their breach of the foregoing warranty and representation.
Section 17.10. Waiver of Jury Trial and Certain Damages. LESSOR AND LESSEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER OR ITS SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LESSOR AND LESSEE, LESSEE’S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PROPERTIES, AND/OR ANY CLAIM FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE, OR ANY EMERGENCY OR STATUTORY REMEDY. THIS WAIVER BY THE PARTIES HERETO OF ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF THEIR BARGAIN. FURTHERMORE, LESSEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES FROM LESSOR AND ANY OF THE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS OR EMPLOYEES OF LESSOR OR ANY OF THEIR SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE OR ANY DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR RELATED HERETO. THE WAIVER BY LESSEE OF ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED BY THE PARTIES HERETO AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF THEIR BARGAIN.

Lessee shall permit Lessor and any Affected Party to use reports and other materials required under this Lease in connection with such Securitization and to inspect the Properties and Lessee’s use thereof at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice. Lessor may provide for inclusion in any prospectus or other Securities offering material such documents, financial and other data, and other information and materials which would customarily be required with respect to Lessee by a purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant, investor or rating agency involved with respect to such Securitization. Lessee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lessor, any Affected Party and to any Person designated by Lessor, such statements and audit letters of reputable, independent certified public accountants pertaining to the written information provided by Lessee pursuant to this Section as shall reasonably be requested by Lessor or such Affected Party, as the case may be. To the extent not previously provided, and to the extent in Lessee’s possession, Lessee also shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lessor, such appraisals, environmental reports and zoning letters, or updates of any of the foregoing, and any other documents as are customarily delivered in connection with Securitizations or as may be required by any rating agency in connection with any Securitization.

Section 17.13. Time Is of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Lease.
Section 17.14. Waiver and Amendment. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived or amended except by a written instrument unambiguously setting forth the matter waived or amended and signed by the party against which enforcement of such waiver or amendment is sought. Waiver of any matter shall not be deemed a waiver of the same or any other matter on any future occasion. No acceptance by Lessor of an amount less than the Rental and other Monetary Obligations stipulated to be due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than a payment on account of the earliest such Rental or other Monetary Obligations then due or in arrears nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or letter accompanying any such payment be deemed a waiver of Lessor’s right to collect any unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.

ARTICLE XIX
OPTION TO PURCHASE
Section 19.01. Option to Purchase. During the period beginning on an Option Trigger Event and ending one hundred twenty days after the occurrence of an Option trigger Event and no earlier than the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date, Lessee shall have the option after the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date to give Lessor notice (the “Option Notice”) of Lessee’s election to purchase the Properties for the greater of (a) the fair market value (which fair market value shall be determined in accordance with Section 19.02 below or (b) the Purchase Price multiplied by the Purchase Price Multiple applicable to the year in which the Option to Purchase is exercised as set forth in Exhibit F attached hereto and made a part hereof. The closing for such purchase must occur within ninety (90) days following Lessor’s receipt of the Option Notice if the required appraisal has been received and, if not, a day for day extension will be allowed until the appraisal is received.
Upon exercise of this option, Lessor and Lessee shall open a new escrow account with a recognized title insurance company selected by mutual agreement of the parties. Such escrow shall be subject to the standard escrow instructions of the escrow agent, to the extent they are not inconsistent herewith. At or before the close of escrow, Lessor shall deliver to the escrow agent its limited warranty deed conveying to Lessee all of Lessor’s right, title and interest in the Properties free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except liens for taxes and assessments and easements, covenants and restrictions of record which were attached to the Properties as of the date hereof, attached during the term of the Lease through Lessee’s action or inaction, as the case may be, have been granted by Lessor in lieu of a taking by the power of eminent domain or the like, or have been approved by Lessee. In the event Lessor is unable to convey title as required, Lessee shall have the right to accept such title as Lessor can convey or elect not to consummate its exercise of the option. Both Lessor and Lessee agree to execute a purchase agreement, escrow instructions and such other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
35 |
consummate the sale of the Properties in the manner herein provided. All Costs incurred in connection with Lessee’s exercise of the option, including, but not limited to, escrow fees, title insurance fees, recording costs or fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees (including those of the Lessor), appraisal fees, stamp taxes and transfer fees shall be borne by Lessee. Lessee shall continue to pay and perform all of its obligations under this Lease until the close of escrow. The purchase price paid by Lessee in exercising this option shall be paid to Lessor or to such person or entity as Lessor may direct at closing in immediately available funds. The closing date may be extended for a reasonable period of time to permit Lessor to cure title defects or to permit either party to cure any other defects or defaults provided each party is diligently seeking to cure such defect or default and Lessee continues to perform its obligations hereunder. In the case of any mortgage or other monetary lien arising by, through or under Lessor (but not arising by, through or under Lessee), the escrow agent shall first apply the purchase price to the payment of such mortgage or monetary lien, and the balance shall be paid over to Lessor at closing.
Lessee shall not have the right to exercise this option or consummate the exercise thereof if at the time of exercise or consummation an Event of Default exists or is continuing.
Lessee may not sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the option granted herein or any interest therein, except in conjunction with a permitted assignment of Lessee’s entire interest herein and then only to the assignee thereof. Any attempted assignment of this option which is contrary to the terms of this Section shall be deemed to be an Event of Default under this Lease and the option granted herein shall be void.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the purchase option described in this Section shall be null and void in the event that Lessor determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the sale of the Properties would cause Lessor to recognize income or gain from a “prohibited transaction” as defined under Section 857(b)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Section 19.02. Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of determining the “fair market value” of a Property under this Article XIX, the parties shall, at Lessee’s sole expense, each retain an independent MAI appraiser to prepare an appraisal of the fair market value of the Property, including any additions or renovations thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may elect to exclude from the fair market value determination, the value of any new improvements to the Property paid for by Lessee and not otherwise financed by Lessor that are separate and distinct from the improvements existing as of the Effective Date (“Lessee Improvements”). The value of such Lessee Improvements to be excluded from the fair market value of the Property shall be described in the appraisals of the Property. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in no event shall any improvements arising from Lessee’s maintenance and repair obligations hereunder constitute Lessee Improvements. In determining the fair market value of the Property and Lessee Improvements, if any, the appraisers shall utilize the cost, income and sales comparison approaches to value. In utilizing the income approach, the appraisers shall determine the “leased fee” value of the Property, which shall be arrived at by considering (a) the income that would be produced by this Lease through the end of the fully extended Lease term, and (b) any other factors relating to such approach which the appraiser shall deem relevant in the appraisers’ sole discretion. The concluded value which results from the calculation of each of the cost approach, the income approach and the sales comparison approach, all as determined in accordance with the provisions of this subsection, shall constitute the “appraisal value” of the Property for each respective appraisal. Once the appraisals are obtained, then the parties shall submit the appraisals to an arbitrator reasonably acceptable to Lessor and Lessee experienced in matters of commercial real estate and the “fair market value” of each Property for purposes of this subsection shall be determined by “baseball arbitration” in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, wherein the
| 4839-9503-5138.10 Spirit/Malibu Boats Master Lease Agreement CA and TN File No. 6457/02-5000 |
36 |
arbitrator shall review both appraisals and shall select either Lessor’s appraisal or Lessee’s appraisal and the appraisal selected by the arbitrator shall constitute the “fair market value” of the Property for purposes of this Article XIX. In the event the “fair market value” so determined is unacceptable to Lessee, Lessee may cancel its exercise of the option without penalty; provided, however, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for its Costs incurred in connection with Lessee’s exercise of the option.

STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS
The following provisions shall be deemed a part of the Lease to the extent any of the Properties are located in the applicable states:
CALIFORNIA
In addition to the remedies otherwise provided elsewhere in this Lease, Lessor shall have the following remedies upon an Event of Default:
A. Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Properties by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Properties to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee’s default, including (i) the cost of recovering possession of the Properties, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Properties, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, and any real estate commissions actually paid; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination; (iii) the worth at the time award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iv) the worth at the time of award, by the court having jurisdiction thereof, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such rental loss of the same period that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; (v) that portion of any leasing commission paid by Lessor applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease; and (vi) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by Lessee’s failure to perform its obligations under the lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. As used herein, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law, but not higher than 13%. As used in herein, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
B. Maintain Lessee’s right to possession in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the Properties. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the Rent as it becomes due hereunder.
C. Exercise the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue Lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).
