THIS CASINO TRADEMARK LICENSE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and executed as of January 22, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), by and between HARD ROCK HOLDINGS LIMITED, a corporation of the United Kingdom (“Licensor”), and MELCO PBL GAMING (MACAU) LIMITED (formerly known as PBL ENTERTAINMENT MACAU LIMITED), a Macau company (“Licensee”).

RECITALS

A. Licensor licenses qualified Persons to develop and operate casinos, under the name “Hard Rock Casino” and certain other trademarks, trade names, service marks, logos, slogans, trade dress, commercial symbols, and other intellectual property rights designated by Licensor from time to time.

B. Licensee is desirous of operating a casino using the Licensed Marks (as hereinafter defined) as a part of a Hotel/Casino complex in connection with a hotel owned by Licensee’s Affiliate that will be known as Hard Rock Hotel/Casino Macau and has requested that Licensor grant to the Licensee the rights contained in this Agreement for, inter alia, use of the Licensed Marks at, or in relation to, the Licensed Location (as hereinafter defined).

C. Licensee and Licensor desire to enter into this Agreement to have a Hard Rock Casino (as hereinafter defined) developed and operated at the Licensed Location upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants and obligations contained herein, the grant by Licensor to Licensee of the rights to utilize the Licensed Marks as contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of all of which is hereby acknowledged by each party hereto, Licensor and Licensee hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

(A) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the definitions set forth in this Agreement in Exhibit A or otherwise herein shall apply.

(B) General Interpretation. Where used in this Agreement, the following expressions shall have the following meanings respectively unless the context or specific language otherwise requires or acknowledges: (i) the singular includes the plural and vice versa; (ii) headings are for ease of reference and do not affect the construction of this document; (iii) a reference to a statute shall include all amendments for the time being in force and any other statute enacted in substitution therefor and all regulations, proclamations, ordinances and by-laws for the time being in force under that statute; (iv) a reference to money means the lawful currency of the United States of America; (v) if the day on which any act, matter or thing is to be done under or pursuant to this document is not a Business Day, that act, manner or thing, if it involves a payment other than a payment which is due on demand,

shall be done on the preceding Business Day; and in all other cases, shall be done no later than the next Business Day.

2. GRANT; SCOPE

(A) Grant. Licensor hereby grants to Licensee, upon and subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, and Licensee hereby accepts, the right and license to develop, operate, own, manage and promote the Casino under and upon the terms of this Agreement, using and in accordance with the Licensed Marks at the Licensed Location.

(B) Scope. All rights granted herein to Licensee to utilize the Licensed Marks are limited to the establishment, operation and promotion of the Casino at and from and in relation to the Licensed Location to be operated as an element of a Hard Rock Hotel/Casino facility in conjunction with a Hotel License with respect to the adjacent Hotel to the extent specifically provided for in this Agreement. Licensee may not otherwise commercialize or utilize, whether or not for profit, any of the Licensed Marks. Licensee may not use any trademarks, trade names, service marks, commercial symbols or logos containing the name “Hard Rock” unless they are Licensed Marks except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. The rights granted to Licensee hereunder shall not entitle Licensee to sell Branded Merchandise from the Licensed Location or any other location, and Licensee acknowledges that Branded Merchandise may be sold at the Licensed Location only by Licensor or its Affiliates or by a Person duly licensed by Licensor or its Affiliates to sell Branded Merchandise. Licensor authorizes Licensee to utilize the Licensed Marks solely and exclusively in the advertising and marketing of the Casino as a Hard Rock Casino and/or an element of the “Hard Rock Hotel/Casino” and in no other manner and for no other purpose, and such use shall be in strict compliance with this Agreement, including but not limited to, the Brand Guidelines established by Licensor.

(1) Licensor reserves all rights not specifically granted to Licensee pursuant to this Agreement. During the term of the Agreement Licensor shall not operate, manage or grant a license for the operation of another Hard Rock Casino within Macau (the “Territory”) and except for the Hotel License, the Hard Rock Café (as defined in the Hotel License) to be located in the Hotel and the Hard Rock Hotel Retail Shop (as defined in the Hotel License) to be located in the Hotel, Licensor and its Affiliates will not license any other facility located in the Territory to utilize any trademark or trade name that embodies the words “Hard Rock” without the prior written consent of Licensee. Except for such limitations, Licensee acknowledges that there are no exclusive rights being granted under this Agreement nor limitations assumed or agreed to by Licensor. Therefore, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Licensor or its Affiliates from (i) developing or licensing others to develop Hard Rock Hotels with or without casinos, Hard Rock themed timeshare, Hard Rock Beach Clubs, Hard Rock Cafes, Hard Rock Live, any other resorts, casinos and/or hotel/casinos, and other facilities using any names or marks (including the Licensed Marks) anywhere in the world outside the Territory, and (ii) promoting and protecting all such facilities anywhere in the world. In addition to the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall

prevent Licensor, or its Affiliates from (a) selling, or licensing third parties to sell, Branded Merchandise, or (b) owning, developing (or licensing others to develop) or operating, anywhere in the world (i) any form of on-line merchandising or gaming (no matter where a Person logs in for such on-line merchandising or gaming service); (ii) any form of lodging, restaurant, merchandising or gaming activities conducted on or from a vessel; or (iii) any resort, hotel, casino, hotel/casino, restaurant or other facilities of any kind located anywhere in the world (including within the Territory) that are not branded with the “Hard Rock” name. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that no rights are or will be granted in this Agreement for the development, construction, operation or maintenance or other interest in any “Hard Rock Cafe” or “Hard Rock Beach Club”, which rights are retained by Licensor or one of its Affiliates.

(2) Notwithstanding any exclusivity provided for or agreed to under this Agreement and the restrictions that Licensor has agreed to hereunder, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Leisure Ventures Pte Ltd, a Singapore corporation has the right to develop, operate, manage or franchise a Hard Rock Hotel in the Territory pursuant to a currently existing agreement with an Affiliate of Licensor, and that any development, franchise, licensing or operation of a Hard Rock Hotel in the Territory pursuant to such right shall not constitute a breach under or give rise to any claim under or right to terminate this Agreement.

(D) Restrictions.

(1) The rights granted to Licensee do not include any rights to use or otherwise identify the Licensed Marks with any businesses or facilities other than as herein granted respecting the Casino at and from and/or in relation to the Licensed Location and in relation to the Hotel under the Hotel License to Hotel Licensee of even date herewith and pursuant to Section 9(G). Licensee shall not use or register any trademark which is confusingly similar to the Licensed Marks or use the Licensed Marks in any manner which creates a unitary or composite trademark with the trademark of any third party.

(2) Except for a facility that has been duly licensed by or is operated by Licensor or its Affiliates, neither Licensee nor its Affiliates shall, or shall permit any third party to, at any time, construct, operate or maintain at the Casino any business that (i) is confusingly similar to a Hard Rock Café, provided, however, nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Licensee, its Affiliates or any third party from offering for sale within the Casino any generic dish or beverage such as a hamburger or milkshake); (ii) offers a menu substantially similar to the menu offered by Hard Rock Cafés; (iii) contains any memorabilia similar to that found in a Hard Rock Café; (iv) displays rock-n-roll artwork, photographs or memorabilia or otherwise includes a music theme in the décor; or (v) is named with reference to a Licensed Xxxx or includes “Hard Rock,” “Rock-n-Roll” or other modern musical reference in its name.

(E) Other Agreements. This Agreement, the Memorabilia Lease and the Hotel License must be executed contemporaneously and the Hotel License must remain in full force and effect during the Term of this Agreement. This Agreement is conditional upon Licensee entering into the Memorabilia Lease and Hotel Licensee entering into the Hotel License, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement. This Agreement must remain in full force and effect during the term of the Hotel License.

3. TERM

This Agreement shall be effective and binding from the date of its execution, as set forth on the first page hereof, and shall continue for a term of ten (10) Operating Years after the Opening Date (“Term”), unless sooner terminated as provided herein; and the parties intend this Agreement and the Hotel License to be co-terminus.

4. COMPENSATION TO LICENSOR

(A) Fees. Licensee hereby agrees to pay to Licensor, commencing on the Opening Date, a fee equal to (x) $5.00 (USD) per Electronic Gaming Machine located at the Casino per day and (y) $40.00 (USD) per Gaming Table located at the Casino per day (the “Gaming License Fee”); provided that the Gaming License Fee shall be no less than $1,330.00 (USD) per day and the Casino shall contain not less than two hundred fifty (250) Gaming Positions, including at least two (2) Gaming Tables.

(B) Payment of Fees. The Gaming License Fee will be payable to Licensor monthly in arrears, within thirty (30) days after the end of each month. The Gaming License Fee and all other fees, contributions, expenses and reimbursements due from Licensee hereunder (collectively, “Fees”) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing from time to time by Licensor. All amounts are payable in United States dollars. In the event that the Project Casino is not operating, other than as a result of the fault of Licensee during any entire day during the Operating Period and there are no business interruption insurance proceeds available to pay the Fees relating to such day, Fees shall be abated for each entire day after the first such day of non-operation. Nothing in this clause requires Licensee to purchase business interruption insurance.

(C) Currency. All payments hereunder to be calculated in the currency of the Territory and converted to United States Dollars for payment to Licensor shall be converted at the spot currency rate announced by Citibank as of 9:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) as of the business date immediately preceding the date on which payment is transmitted. However, if a payment is transmitted after the date payment is due, the currency exchange rate used shall be (i) the rate as of the date payment was due or (ii) the rate as of the date the payment is transmitted, whichever rate produces the larger amount in United States Dollars.

(D) Withholding Taxes. In the event that any amount payable by Licensee to Licensor or its Affiliates hereunder are subject to withholding or other taxes that Licensee is required to deduct from such payments, Licensee shall remit the tax to the appropriate governmental agency and shall provide Licensor a copy of each withholding tax remittance notice which it files with such agency. Furthermore, Licensee shall promptly deliver to Licensor receipts of applicable governmental authorities for all such taxes withheld or paid. Licensee shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and hold Licensor and its Affiliates harmless against any

penalties, interest and expenses incurred by or assessed against Licensor or its Affiliates as a result of Licensee’s failure to withhold such taxes or to remit them to the appropriate taxing authority. Licensee shall fully and promptly cooperate with Licensor to provide such information and records as Licensor may request in connection with any application by Licensor to any taxing authority for tax credits, exemptions or refunds available for any withholding or other taxes paid or payable by Licensor. In the event Licensor is required to refund to Licensee any amounts paid hereunder pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Licensor shall not be required to refund that portion of those amounts which were withheld by Licensee in order to comply with any applicable tax law; provided that if Licensee is entitled to a refund from the appropriate taxing authority of the portion withheld (and not refunded to Licensor), Licensor shall reasonably cooperate with Licensee to provide, at Licensee’s sole cost and expense, such information and document necessary for Licensee to obtain the refund.

(E) Legal Restrictions. If at any time, any legal restriction shall be imposed upon the purchase of United States Dollars or the transfer to or credit of a non-resident entity with payments in United States Dollars, Licensee shall notify Licensor immediately. Licensee shall use its best efforts to obtain any consents or authorizations which may be necessary in order to permit timely payments in United States Dollars of all amounts payable hereunder. While such restrictions are in effect, Licensor may require Licensee to deposit all amounts due but unpaid as a result of such a restriction in any type of account, in any bank or institution in the Territory designated by Licensor and in any currency designated by Licensor that is available to Licensee. Licensor shall be entitled to all interest earned on such deposits. If such legal restrictions prevent the payment by Licensee of amounts due hereunder in United States Dollars the parties must negotiate in good faith alternative payment terms which will allow the Licensee to make payments under this Agreement in an alternative currency. In the event such restrictions prevent payment by Licensee of amounts due hereunder in United States Dollars for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or more, Licensor may, at its sole and exclusive option, terminate this Agreement effective upon delivery of written notice thereof to Licensee.

(F) All Fees Are Nonrefundable. No Fees or other sums payable hereunder shall be refundable to Licensee other than as specifically provided herein.

(G) Month Defined. For purposes of this Section, a “month” shall mean a calendar month, that period between the Effective Date and the last day of the month in which this Agreement was executed, and that period following the end of the last full calendar month during the term of this Agreement and the last day that this Agreement is in effect.

(H) Late Payments. Unpaid amounts due and owing from Licensee shall bear interest, pro rata per day, on the past due balance at the Interest Rate.

(I) All Fees Exclusive of Taxes. Subject to Section 4(D), all Fees payable to Licensor under this Agreement are exclusive of any taxes (including, but not limited to, any sales, value added or goods and services tax) or other governmental charges imposed or payable in connection with the rights granted to Licensee under this Agreement, or in connection with the payment of such Fees. All such taxes or charges shall be payable by Licensee in addition to such Fees.

(J) Licensee May Not Withhold Payments Due to Licensor. Licensee agrees that it will not withhold payment of any amounts owed to Licensor on the grounds of Licensor’s alleged nonperformance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or for any other reason, and Licensee specifically waives any right it has at Law or in equity to offset any funds Licensee may owe Licensor or to fail or refuse to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement. Licensee may preserve any rights it has to assert non-performance by Licensor by paying Fees “under protest”, and if Licensee has secured a final non-appealable judgment under this Agreement or arbitral award referred to in Section 19(B)(1) that has not been paid within thirty (30) days of entry thereof, Licensee may offset any sums due hereunder against such obligation.

5. DEVELOPMENT/OPERATION OF CASINO

(A) Development.

(1) Licensee shall acquire (either in freehold or by leasehold estate under a Lease) and develop the Licensed Location and the Casino, and with all reasonable diligence, construct, complete, furnish and equip the Casino which shall in no event be of a lesser quality than as set forth in the Hard Rock System, the Manuals and the Comprehensive Project Design (as defined in the Development Rider). The Casino shall be designed, planned, constructed and furnished as provided for under the Development Rider that is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

(2) Licensor shall provide Technical Services in connection with the development, construction, equipping and operation of the Casino as provided in the Technical Services Rider attached as Exhibit E.

(B) Financing.

(1) Licensee hereby acknowledges and agrees that Licensor has not made any agreements or commitments of any kind, whether express or implied, to Licensee that Licensor or any of its Affiliates will provide a completion guaranty or any other financial assistance to Licensee in connection with its financing of the Casino.

(2) Licensee shall have the right with notice to Licensor to encumber, pledge, grant, or convey its rights, title and interest in and to its interests in this Agreement by way of a security agreement, a pledge and/or, collateral assignment (collectively, a “Pledge”) to secure the payment of any loan or loans obtained by Licensee to finance or refinance the Casino (such loan or loans may include financing for other development on the City of Dreams Land). The beneficiary of a Pledge, such as the security trustee or a secured party of a security agreement, is referred to herein as a “Secured Party.” Pursuant to any such agreements, no Fees or any payments due to Licensor or its Affiliates shall be subordinated to any Pledge or right of the Secured Party, and Licensor shall not be obligated to forbear from pursuing its remedies hereunder or waive, suspend or modify its rights hereunder.

(3) Licensor agrees with Licensee that Licensor shall, at the request of Licensee or a Secured Party made from time to time and at any time, enter into a lender’s rights agreement with any Secured Party identified by Licensee, which lender’s rights agreement shall be consistent with the terms and provisions contained in this Section that apply to the Secured Parties and Pledges and shall be in a form mutually and reasonably acceptable to Licensor and such Secured Party.

(4) A Secured Party (and/or any Affiliate of Secured Party) shall, upon a Pledge becoming enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof, have the right and power to enforce its rights under a Pledge and obtain title to the Casino under any land mortgage in favor of the Secured Party with respect to the City of Dreams Land. In the event of such enforcement described in the foregoing sentence, the Secured Party (or its Affiliate) shall have the option to assume this Agreement on the condition that the Secured Party pays Licensor all accrued but unpaid Fees. In the event that a Secured Party (or an Affiliate of a Secured Party) obtains title to the Casino, such Secured Party (or its Affiliate) shall have the right to transfer title to the Casino and the Licensee’s interest in this Agreement without the need to request or obtain the Licensor’s consent; provided that such transferee is not a Competitor or an Affiliate of a Competitor and has the necessary experience, expertise and capacity to be licensed as is necessary to own the Casino as a first class casino; such transferee, or its Affiliates, parent or sponsor, has a net worth of at least Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00), all accrued and unpaid Fees are brought current and such transferee assumes this Agreement.

(5) In the event the Secured Party (or its Affiliate) or any transferee described in this Section fails to assume this Agreement as herein provided and pay the unpaid Fees specified hereunder, Licensor shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement and any rights of Licensee, a Secured Party or such transferee with respect to the Licensed Marks, shall immediately cease and terminate; and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Licensor shall have the right to immediately, at Licensee’s expense, remove all elements comprising the Licensed Marks from the Casino. Licensor shall be entitled to enter upon the Casino to accomplish such removal, and this right shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(C) Restaurant. Current Conceptual Design Package does not include a Restaurant in the Casino and in the event Licensee wishes to modify the Conceptual Design Drawings to include a Restaurant, Licensor shall have the right to approve whether there shall be a Restaurant in the Casino and the type, the concept and the design elements of any Restaurant. Any Restaurant that is permitted by Licensor shall not be operated by a Competitor and shall be operated in a fashion that complies with the Hard Rock System. Licensor shall have approval rights over any Restaurant Lease, management agreement or operating agreement.

(D) Licensor’s Option to Assign Pre-Opening Coordinator. Subject to the remainder of this clause, Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assign a full time or part time, pre-opening coordinator or coordinators to act as Licensor’s

representative during the Pre-Opening Period (the “Pre-Opening Coordinator(s)”) at Licensor’s expense, except as otherwise specifically agreed by Licensee. Before appointing the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s), Licensor must obtain Licensee’s approval of the identity of the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). The function of the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s) during the Pre-Opening Period shall be as follows:

(1) to consult with Licensee in connection with pre-opening scheduling, the processing of any required approvals of Licensor and Licensee;

(2) to serve as liaison with Licensee in connection with compliance with the requirements of all Licensor approvals prior to Opening Date; and

(3) generally to assist in the coordination of pre-opening and grand opening activities between Licensee and Licensor and to evaluate the Casino within thirty (30) days prior to the Opening Date to determine its compliance with the Hard Rock System.

Licensee shall provide the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s) with full cooperation and all information in Licensee’s possession or under Licensee’s control (so far as that information relates to the functions and duties of the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s)) to ensure that the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s) has the capability to fulfill the functions assigned herein to the Pre-Opening Coordinator(s).

Licensee hereby acknowledges that Licensor acts only in an advisory capacity for purposes of this Section 5(D), and Licensor shall not be responsible for the adequacy or coordination of any plans or specifications, the structural integrity of any structures or the systems thereof, compliance with applicable Laws, including, without limitation, any building code of any Governmental Authority, or any insurance requirement, or for the obtaining of any necessary Permits, all of which shall be the sole responsibility, and at the sole risk, of Licensee.

(E) Pre-Opening Program. Licensor and Licensee shall cooperate with each other to develop a written pre-opening program for the Casino in conjunction with the pre-opening program for the Hotel not less than nine (9) months prior to the Target Opening Date specifying, in reasonable detail: (i) any services by Licensor which Licensor reasonably believes are necessary prior to the Opening Date with respect to the Hard Rock Elements; (ii) the estimated costs to be incurred by Licensor in providing such services which the Licensee would have to agree to bear during the Pre-Opening Period; (iii) sales and promotion efforts by Licensor or its Affiliates during the Pre-Opening Period; (iv) required opening festivities; and (v) an estimate of other pre-opening costs and expenses relating to the foregoing. Licensee shall be solely responsible for payment of all such pre-opening costs and expenses which are approved by Licensee.

(F) Sale of Securities.

(1) If Licensee or any of its Affiliates shall, at any time or from time to time, “sell” or “offer to sell” any “securities” issued by it through the medium of any “prospectus” or otherwise, it shall do so only in compliance with all applicable securities

laws, and Licensee shall not make any representations that implies in any way that (a) either Licensor, or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents or employees, shall in any way be deemed an “issuer” or “underwriter” of said “securities,” or that (b) Licensor, its Affiliates and said officers, directors, agents and employees have assumed or shall have any liability or responsibility for any financial statements, prospectuses or other financial information contained in any “prospectus” or similar written or oral communication.

(2) Licensee shall deliver to Licensor three (3) draft copies of any relevant sections of a “prospectus” or similar communications that refer to or contain the Licensed Marks, any description of this Agreement and/or Licensee’s relationship with Licensor hereunder, other than simply identifying the existence of this Agreement or the existence of the Casino, Hotel, or Hard Rock Café in the “City of Dreams” complex without a description of the terms of this Agreement or the nature of the relationship between Licensor and Licensee, delivered in connection with the sale or offer by Licensee of any “securities” not less than (30) days prior to the filing thereof with any Governmental Authority or the delivery thereof to any prospective purchaser.

In the event that Licensee sells the Hotel, Casino and all or a substantial part of the City of Dreams complex to a Person who is not a Competitor of Licensor but does not at the time of the transaction satisfy the $100 Million U.S. Dollar net worth test set forth above, Licensor shall have the right by written notice to terminate this Agreement and upon such a termination Licensee shall pay to Licensor a fee equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Termination Fee computed as provided in Section 15(B).

(1) It is the intent of the parties hereto that the Casino shall at all times during the Term of this Agreement be operated in accordance with the Hard Rock System and the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event that Licensor consents

to a sale or lease and assignment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 17(B) above, the prospective purchaser shall deliver to Licensor as a condition to such sale or assignment an executed written instrument, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Licensor and its counsel, expressly assuming and agreeing to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and providing a release by the assigning Licensee.

(2) Licensor’s consent to any sale or assignment of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any claims Licensor or any Affiliate of Licensor may have against Licensee, nor shall it be deemed a waiver of Licensor’s right to demand strict compliance with any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement by Licensee.

(3) Any sale or transfer in violation of the provisions of this Section 17 shall be void an of no force and effect.

For purposes hereof, “Music-Themed” shall mean a facility (including a casino or hotel) that includes in its name, is licensed or endorsed by, or has a substantial portion of its design based on, or is otherwise identified with a musician, musical personality, a musical group and includes the display of memorabilia bearing the image of such musician, musical personality or musical group.

Licensee shall include or cause to be included in any leases at the Casino a clause prohibiting or preventing the use or operation thereof in a manner which would violate the provisions of this Section, and Licensor shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of such lease clause with the right to enforce it against the tenant. For the avoidance of doubt, any breach of such lease clause not owing to the action of Licensee or any Affiliate of Licensee shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement by Licensee unless Licensee prevents Licensor from asserting its rights to prohibit such violation by a tenant.

(B) Upon Transfer, Termination or Expiration. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, or upon a transfer by Licensee of its interest in the Casino or its rights under this Agreement, Licensee agrees that, for one (1) year beginning on the effective date of the expiration, termination or transfer, neither Licensee nor its Affiliates will directly or indirectly own, operate, be employed by, advise, assist, invest in, franchise, make loans to, or have any interest in, a Music-Themed casino or hotel at the Licensed Location or at a location situated within the Territory.

(C) Necessity of Non-competition Restriction; Injunctive Relief. Licensee agrees the provisions of this Section 18 are necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Licensor, its Affiliates and other licensees of Licensor and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Protected Persons”), including, without limitation, and as applicable, preventing the unauthorized dissemination of marketing, promotional and Confidential Information to competitors thereof and preventing damage to and/or loss of goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks and other intellectual property rights of Licensor. Licensee specifically acknowledges that damages alone cannot adequately compensate for a violation by Licensee of the requirements of this Section 18, and that injunctive relief is essential for the protection of the Protected Persons. Licensee agrees that if Licensor alleges any violation of any covenant contained within this Section 18, the Licensor will have the right (notwithstanding Section 19 hereof) to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief, in addition to all other remedies that may be available.

19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

(A) Accounting/Fee Disputes. Any dispute regarding the calculation of Fees paid or payable by Licensee and/or its Affiliates shall be resolved in the following manner: Licensor and Licensee shall use their reasonable efforts with the assistance of their respective independent public accountants to resolve such dispute. If such persons are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by either party of a notice identifying the nature of such dispute (the “Dispute Notice”), then the issues raised by the Dispute Notice shall be resolved by any internationally recognized “big-four” firm of certified public accountants mutually acceptable to Licensor and Licensee (the “Accounting Referee”). Such person shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. If within forty-five (45) days after receipt by either party of the Dispute Notice, the parties are unable to agree on an Accounting Referee, then each party shall pick an internationally recognized “big-four” firm of certified public accountants and such firms shall select the Accounting Referee, provided that the Accounting Referee so selected by such firms shall be independent of the Licensor and the Licensee and their respective Affiliates and shall not have a business relationship with any of such parties. The parties shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Referee to promptly resolve such issues. Such determination shall be made within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the Accounting Referee receives notice of the dispute, or as soon thereafter as possible. Such determination shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall not be subject to appeal. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Referee in conducting such review (if any) shall be shared fifty percent (50%) by Licensor and fifty percent (50%) by Licensee. If Licensor and Licensee are unable to agree on an Accounting Referee, the dispute shall be governed by Section 19(B) below.

If the final resolution of Fees as provided above results in an additional payment to Licensor by Licensee and/or its Affiliates, then Licensee and/or its Affiliates shall pay any additional amounts due to Licensor, together with Interest thereon from the relevant due date, and reimburse Licensor for its share of the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Referee, within fifteen (15) days of

the date on which the final determination is agreed or determined. If the final resolution of Fees as provided above determines that Licensee is not obligated to pay any additional Fee, the Licensor shall reimburse Licensee for its share of the Fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Referee within fifteen (15) days of the date on which the final determination is agreed or determined.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensor shall have the right to approve in its sole discretion any part of the Comprehensive Project Design that relates to the Approval Items described in Annex D-1. To the extent not specified in the Comprehensive Project Design required by the Hard Rock System or specifically subject to Licensor approval under this Development Rider, including Approval Items set forth in Annex D-1, Licensee shall consult with Licensor in relation to the design elements and concepts to be included in the Casino.
