NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as
follows:
1. Term. This Agreement shall be effective on June 30, 1998, (the
"EFFECTIVE DATE") and shall continue and remain in full force and effect for the
Term of the Amended and Restated Management Agreement entered into between the
Company and Owner, dated even date herewith (the "MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT").
2. Adjusted Gross Revenue. As partial consideration for Owner's
purchase of the Equipment, the Company agrees to assign to Owner:
(a) an absolute two percent (2%) of the Company Revenue; and
(b) all of the Installment Purchase Revenue.
This assignment does not assign the Company's right to a management fee
as provided in the Management Agreement nor does it assign to Owner any right of
the Company to receive any other fees or compensation from Tribes with respect
to the Lease/Purchase Equipment. The Company also expressly retains the right to
receive the balance of the Company Revenue (the "COMPANY PERCENTAGE"). In the
event the Company Revenue received from a Tribe is modified for any reason, or
in the event the Equipment is transferred to another facility and the Company
Revenue (or Installment Purchase Revenue) is subject to agreement with another
Tribe, the parties agree that they shall renegotiate the revenue percentages to
be received by each party in good faith. The Company reserves the right, in its
sole and absolute discretion and with no obligation whatsoever to do so, to
increase the Owner's share of the Company Revenue so as to accelerate the
Company's right to repurchase the Equipment as permitted in the Management
Agreement.
3. Collection. The Company agrees to be responsible for the collection
and remittance of the Owner Percentage and the Installment Purchase Revenue as
provided in the Management Agreement, including any necessary legal action
related to such collection. The Company shall not, however, be required to
compensate Owner in the event the Tribe, or any other third party, fails to pay,
or provides an inaccurate or fraudulent accounting of, the Owner Percentage or
the Installment Purchase Revenue. The Company agrees that it will subrogate its
claim to the Owner Percentage and the Installment Purchase Revenue upon the
request of Owner, and that it will cooperate in all subsequent efforts by Owner
to collect the Owner Percentage and the Installment Purchase Revenue from the
Tribe.
4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma without reference to the
choice of law principles thereof.
5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any exhibits and
schedules hereto, contains the entire agreement and understanding between the
parties hereto, and supersedes any and all prior agreements, arrangements and
understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. There are no written or
oral agreements, understandings, representations or warranties between the
parties other than those set forth or referred to in this Agreement. No
supplement, amendment, alteration,
3
modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless consented to in
writing by the Company and Owner.
6. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns; provided, however, this Agreement may not be assigned by either party
without the written consent of the other, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
7. Parties In Interest. Nothing in this Agreement shall entitle any
party other than Buyer or Seller to any claim, cause of action, remedy or right
of any kind.
8. Waiver. No waiver of any term, provision or condition of this
Agreement shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the party against
which such waiver is sought to be enforced, and no such waiver shall be deemed
to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, provision
or condition or as a waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this
Agreement, unless specifically so stated in such written waiver.
9. Severability. If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement
or the application thereof to any person or circumstance (other than a term,
covenant, condition or application which affects the essence of this Agreement)
shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this
Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to those
persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid
or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant and
condition of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
10. March 31 Rental Pool Agreement. This Agreement amends and restates
the March 31 Rental Pool Agreement in its entirety which, as so amended, remains
in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
duly executed and delivered by their duly authorized representatives on the day
first above written.
