shall insure the Tennis Center, each of its component parts and all
Furniture and Equipment against damage from Standard All-Risk
including boiler and machinery (and if available and without
exorbitant cost, earthquake and flood insurance, but excluding, at
Owners's discretion, damage resulting from war, nuclear energy, and
wear, tear and inherent vice) in aggregate amounts which shall be
not less than one hundred percent (100%) of replacement costs
thereof (exclusive of foundations and footings). Owner shall carry
such other or additional insurance in such amounts and against such
risks as Owner shall reasonably deem necessary with respect to the
buildings, facilities and contents of the Tennis Center. Operator

complying with reasonable suggestions for reducing risks and losses
at the Tennis Center.

expense:

(including Broad Form CGL endorsement for Personal Injury,
Advertising Injury, Premises Medical Payment, and Incidental
Medical Malpractice Liability) covering operations of the Tennis
Center in amounts satisfactory to Owner, but in any event not less
than a combined single limit of not less than $5,000,000 for each
occurrence, for personal injury and death, and property damage,
which shall, among other risks, including coverage against
liability arising out of the ownership or operation of motor

bodily injury, (ii) death, (iii) property damage, (iv) assault or
battery, (v) false arrest, detention or imprisonment or malicious
prosecution, (vi) libel, slander, defamation or violation of the
right of privacy, (vii) wrongful entry or eviction, or (viii) Full
Liquor Liability or dram shop liability;
(B) Worker's compensation insurance or insurance
required by similar employee benefit acts as well as insurance
having a minimum per occurrence limit as Operator may deem
advisable against all claims which may be brought for personal
injury or death of Operator's employees, but in no event less than
amounts prescribed by applicable law; provided, however, that
Operator may be self-insured provided that Operator satisfies the
requirements of the Worker's Compensation Law in effect in the
State of Hawaii; and
(C) Fidelity bonds, with reasonable limits and
deductibles to be determined by Operator, covering Operator's
employees in job classifications normally bonded in other tennis
facilities it manages in the United States or otherwise required by
law, and comprehensive crime insurance to the extent that Operator
deems such to be necessary for the Tennis Center.
Owner may require Operator to increase the limits of the
above insurance coverage and may require Operator to carry other or
additional insurance as may be required by prudent insurance
practices. Operator may combine insurance coverages hereunder with
any other insurance policies or coverages or blanket policies or
coverages Operator may have with its Affiliates or with respect to
other tennis and other facilities in Kapalua.
7.3 Form of Policies. All insurance required by Sections 7.1
and 7.2 shall be in such form and with any insurance companies
authorized to do business in the State of Hawaii. Any insurance
may be provided under blanket policies of insurance. All property
damage insurance maintained by Owner pursuant to Section 7.1 shall,
so long as the Tennis Center is mortgaged pursuant to a Mortgage,
be subject to a standard mortgagee clause in favor of the holder of
the Mortgage and shall name Operator and Lessor under the Ground
Lease as an additional insured. All other insurance shall be in
the name of Owner and Operator and Lessor under the Ground Lease.
All policies of insurance shall provide that (i) the insurance
company will have no right of subrogation against the holder the
Mortgage, Owner, Operator or any of their respective Affiliates or
the agents or employees thereof, and (ii) that the proceeds thereof
in the event of loss or damage shall, to the extent payable to any
holder of a Mortgage, be payable notwithstanding any act of
negligence or breach of warranty by Owner or Operator which might
otherwise result in the forfeiture or non-payment of such insurance
proceeds.
7.4 Insurance Proceeds. Owner and Operator agree that, if
Owner shall be required to repair or restore the Tennis Center
after an insurable casualty, all proceeds of property damage
insurance required to be maintained by Owner under Section 7.1 when
and if collected shall be used to the extent necessary for the
restoration or reconstruction of the Tennis Center and any other
improvement or improvements on the Premises, together with
replacing any Furniture and Equipment required in the operation of
the Tennis Center, all such proceeds being pledged and dedicated by
the parties for that purpose, with any excess funds to be delivered
to Owner.
7.5 Certificates. Certificates of all policies shall be
delivered to the party hereunder who is not required to purchase
the insurance prior to the Commencement Date and thereafter
certificates of renewal shall be so delivered not less than thirty
(30) days prior to the expiration date of such policies. All such
certificates shall specify that the policies to which they relate
cannot be cancelled or modified on less than thirty (30) days'
prior written notice to such other party except for non-payment of
premiums which shall require ten (10) days prior written notice to
such other party.

component parts. Operator shall promptly deliver to Owner all
notices of assessments, valuations and similar documents to be
filed by Operator or Owner or which are received from taxing
authorities by Operator. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations
of Owner, Owner may, at its sole expense, contest the validity or
the amount of any such tax or assessment, provided that such
contest does not materially jeopardize Operator's rights under this
Agreement. Operator agrees to cooperate with Owner and execute any
documents or pleadings required for such purpose, but Owner shall
reimburse Operator any such out-of-pocket costs incurred by
Operator in so doing.

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION; CONDEMNATION
9.1 Damage or Destruction. If the Tennis Center or any
portion thereof shall be damaged or destroyed at any time or times
during the Operating Term by fire, casualty or any other cause,
Owner will, subject to available insurance proceeds, at its own
cost and expense and with due diligence, repair, rebuild or replace
the same so that after such repairing, rebuilding, or replacing,
the Tennis Center shall be substantially the same as prior to such
damage or destruction. Owner shall undertake such work within
ninety (90) days after the proceeds of any insurance becomes
available to Owner for such repairing, rebuilding or replacing, and
shall complete the same diligently; the procedures contained in the
Development Agreement shall govern such work to the extent
applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Tennis Center is
damaged or destroyed to such an extent that the cost of repairs or
restoration as reasonably estimated by Owner exceeds one-third of
the original cost of the Tennis Center, Owner shall have no
obligation to repair, rebuild or replace the Tennis Center.
9.2 Condemnation. If only a part of the Tennis Center shall
be taken or condemned in any eminent domain, condemnation,
compulsory acquisition or like proceeding by any competent
authority, and in the reasonable opinion of Owner, the Tennis
Center can be altered, restored or repaired so as to make it a
satisfactory architectural unit as a tennis facility of similar
type and class as prior to the taking or condemnation, Owner shall
so alter, restore and replace if the proceeds of such condemnation
will be sufficient to pay for the costs of same, Owner and Operator
agreeing to pledge so much of their awards as is necessary for such
purpose. Such work shall be commenced within ninety (90) days
after such proceeds become available and shall be diligently
pursued to completion; the procedures contained in the Development
Agreement shall govern such work to the extent applicable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and only if such claim for
damages is not adverse to any interest of Owner or the Lessor under
the Ground Lease, the Operator shall have the right to claim and
recover from the condemning authority but not from the Owner or
Lessor under the Ground Lease, such compensation as may be
separately awarded or recoverable by the Operator in its own right
on account of any and all damage to its business by reason of any
condemnation and for or on account of discontinuing its operation
of the Tennis Facility.
