Furthermore, Operator shall, in fulfilling its obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, any decisions regarding whether or not the Condo-Hotel will participate in specialized initiatives, including, but not limited to, Purchasing Programs), act at all times in a manner that is consistent with the fiduciary duty owed by Operator to Owner and consistent with the fiduciary relationship of trust and good faith and confidence between Owner and Operator. Operator acknowledges and affirms to Owner, and each of its members, respectively, that the actions, duties and obligations contemplated herein to be performed and/or undertaken by Operator are not in any way intended, nor will such actions, duties and obligations supplant any duty or obligation to be performed by the MGM Member in its capacity as

Managing Member pursuant to the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement. Operator acknowledges that all actions taken by it pursuant to this Agreement, whether on its own behalf or through its Affiliates and subsidiaries (including, without limitation, Operator), are and shall be deemed actions taken by the MGM Member for and on behalf of Owner as if taken by MGM Member as the Managing Member under the Joint Venture Agreement (and MGM Member shall be responsible and liable for all such actions or omissions as if taken by the MGM Member itself); provided, however, that any action or omission of Operator made under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of the Joint Venture Agreement by the MGM Member unless such action or omission, if made by the MGM Member, would constitute a breach under the Joint Venture Agreement.

ARTICLE 4

PRE-OPENING ACTIVITIES

4.1 Pre-Opening Services. Owner acknowledges and agrees that various pre-opening activities for the Operator have commenced as of the Effective Date and are continuing, and will continue to ensure that the Condo-Hotel is ready to accept guests by the Opening Date. These pre-opening services are being performed pursuant to and in accordance with the pre-opening budget established as part of the construction budget approved in connection with the execution of the Joint Venture Agreement, or, if not previously provided, shall comprise a portion of the Annual Budget (as defined in the Joint Venture Agreement) to be prepared and approved as required by the Joint Venture Agreement (the “Pre-Opening Budget”). These services (collectively, the “Pre-Opening Services”) include, without limitation:

4.1.1 subject to Section 8.1, hiring and training of all Personnel;

4.1.2 pre-marketing and marketing programs, including pre-opening promotion and opening celebrations, and the preparation of a pre-opening marketing plan which shall include, without limitation: (a) public relations and communications activities, (b) implementation of a marketing, advertising and reservations program, and (c) representation of the Condo-Hotel by regional sales and corporate marketing personnel of Operator and its Affiliates to position the Condo-Hotel in accordance with the Operating Standards;

4.1.3 administering and coordinating with Owner applications for or transfers of licenses, permits, approvals, and/or other instruments necessary for the management and operation of the Condo-Hotel as contemplated by this Agreement;

4.1.4 causing the purchase of initial Operating Supplies and Operating Equipment to the extent not purchased and installed by Owner during the development of the Condo-Hotel as set forth in the approved Pre-Opening Budget;

4.1.5 preparing necessary budgets, including without limitation, the Pre-Opening Budget;

4.1.6 identifying tenants for retail outlets and lobby space in the Condo-Hotel;

4.1.7 negotiating concession contracts and/or leases for retail outlets and lobby space in the Condo-Hotel;

4.1.8 coordinating the testing of operations of the Condo-Hotel, including incorporating any other technology systems required to operate the Condo-Hotel or provide the Centralized Services;

4.1.9 providing a task force of experts and Personnel to supervise and assist with certain pre-opening and opening operations;

4.1.10 subject to any conditions required by the Joint Venture Agreement, determining the Opening Date; and

4.1.11 rendering such other services incidental to the preparation and organization of the Condo-Hotel’s management and operation as may be required.

4.2 Costs and Expenses. The costs and expenses relating to the activities described in Section 4.1 above for the initial opening of the Condo-Hotel for the CityCenter Project (collectively, the “Pre-Opening Expenses”) may include, without limitation but subject to Section 4.3 hereof, each of the following items as they directly relate and are directly incurred by the Condo-Hotel as a Pre-Opening Expense: (i) Compensation; (ii) interim office space costs, if any, for non-corporate-related services; provided, however, that no rent shall be charged or reimbursed with respect to the sales office, Perini field office, or the project office (such expenses may continue to be incurred as a Reimbursable Expense after the Opening Date); (iii) legal, accounting, and other professional fees; (iv) telecommunications expenses; (v) staff hiring and training costs; (vi) opening celebration costs; (vii) utilities, including, without limitation, heat, air conditioning, light, power, water, and any sewage treatment and disposal costs; provided, however, with respect to the sales office, Perini field office and the project office, such expenses may continue to be incurred as a Reimbursable Expense after the Opening Date; (viii) advertising and promotion expenses; (ix) real property taxes; and (x) consistent with the provisions of Section 6.3, the reasonable travel, living, and other out-of-pocket expenses of Personnel from the corporate and regional offices of Operator and its Affiliates.

4.3 Pre-Opening Budget. Operator has prepared and submitted to Owner the Pre-Opening Budget (which budget is a component of the larger Project Budget (as defined in the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement)), which has been approved pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement); provided, however, it is understood and agreed that changes in development plans, business plans, market conditions, general economic conditions and other unforeseen circumstances may make adherence to the Pre-Opening Budget impractical or

impossible, and Operator shall be entitled to depart from the Pre-Opening Budget and incur Pre-Opening Expenses in excess of the Pre-Opening Budget without DW Member’s approval to the extent any such departure does not constitute a Major Decision. Operator shall notify Owner promptly of any substantial change to the Pre-Opening Budget and shall provide all information in relation to such changes as Owner may reasonably request. Furthermore, if the Opening Date is delayed from the originally projected dates (other than a delay caused by Operator), the Pre-Opening Budget shall be revised to reflect any increases in Pre-Opening Expenses caused by such delay after consultation with and approval by Owner in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement (or by DW Member, as may be required by the Joint Venture Agreement). Increased Pre-Opening Expenses may include, as applicable, all out-of-pocket cancellation penalties if Operator cancels reservations made for guestrooms, meeting rooms, and other areas as a result of such delay; provided, however, that in the event that such delay is caused by a breach of the Development Management Agreement by the Development Manager, such increase in Pre-Opening Expenses resulting from such out-of-pocket cancellation penalties shall be deemed an Operating Expense in calculating EBITDAM and the corresponding Incentive Management Fee for the first Operating Year.

4.4 Funding of Pre-Opening Expenses. Other than as set forth in Section 4.3, Pre-Opening Expenses incurred in accordance with this ARTICLE 4 shall be borne solely by Owner as a capital expense and shall not be classified as an Operating Expense. To facilitate the funding of Pre-Opening Expenses, Owner shall maintain a bank account or, at its option, line of credit with an insured bank designated by Owner and approved by Operator. Owner shall ensure that the bank account or line of credit may be drawn upon for Pre-Opening Expenses by Operator acting alone and shall ensure that, subject to Section 4.3 hereof, sufficient funds or line of credit are available to pay for the Pre-Opening Expenses, including reimbursement to Operator for any Pre-Opening Expenses paid by Operator. The terms of the bank account or line of credit and any amendments thereto will be in form and substance approved by Owner and Operator and will expressly provide that during the period in which Pre-Opening Services are being provided, no instruction by Owner terminating, diminishing or otherwise materially and adversely affecting Operator’s right to draw funds will be effective without Operator’s prior written approval. Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, Operator will be entitled any time or from time to time to draw cash from the bank account or under the line of credit in any amount required to pay the Pre-Opening Expenses in accordance with this Agreement. In addition, Pre-Opening Expenses incurred or paid by Operator shall be promptly reimbursed to Operator from such account or line of credit, and Operator shall provide a statement of account to Owner for such Pre-Opening Expenses reimbursed to Operator. If following the Opening Date, there are outstanding Pre-Opening Expenses which have not been paid, Operator shall be entitled to withdraw such amounts (plus interest thereon if such Pre-Opening Expenses were paid by Operator) from the Operating Account for the Condo-Hotel.

4.5 Monthly Statements. Operator shall submit to Owner a monthly statement during the period of the Pre-Opening Services until the Opening Date, which report shall include a statement of all Pre-Opening Expenses incurred by Operator during the prior calendar month. Operator shall provide a final accounting and statement to Owner for the Pre-Opening Expenses incurred for the Condo-Hotel and any other outstanding amounts that are owed to Operator and its Affiliates within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Opening Date.

ARTICLE 5

CONDOMINIUM DOCUMENTS; HOTEL RELATED SERVICES; RENTAL PROGRAM

5.1 Condominium Documents.

5.1.1 Owner, in its capacity as the current owner of the Condo-Hotel, shall execute and record the Condominium Documents, including such documents binding on future owners and operators of the various components of the Condo-Hotel, as may be necessary to ensure that such owners and operators of the Condo-Hotel (and any components thereto) are similarly obligated to construct, operate and maintain the portions of the Condo-Hotel owned or controlled by each such person to a standard consistent with this Agreement and in a manner that shall enable and not interfere with the operation of the Condo-Hotel as contemplated by this Agreement.

5.1.2 Operator has received, reviewed and approved the current draft of the Condominium Documents and will have the continuing right to further approve any modifications thereto over which Owner has control (through exercise of voting rights or otherwise) and Owner shall not amend or modify any of the same in a manner that would materially and adversely affect Operator’s rights or obligations under this Agreement (provided, however, if the amendment or modification is necessary to comply with Legal Requirements, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to address and resolve the issue). In the event that the Condominium Documents are amended and/or modified, Owner shall provide Operator with copies of such Condominium Documents promptly upon their execution or finalization, as may be applicable.

5.1.3 Owner shall take (and not fail to take) any action or exercise (and not fail to exercise) such rights under the Condominium Documents (through exercise of voting rights, enforcement of remedies or otherwise, subject to any constraints imposed under Legal Requirements) as may be necessary or desirable in order (a) to ensure that each component of the Condo-Hotel over which Owner has control is constructed, maintained and operated in accordance with this Agreement, and (b) to effectuate the terms of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents referred to in this ARTICLE 5; provided, however, in the event Owner’s action or inaction would (i) violate applicable Legal Requirements or the Condominium Documents, or (ii) otherwise subject Owner to legal liability, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to address and resolve the issue.

5.1.4 The Parties shall negotiate in a good faith and timely manner any other agreements reasonably required in connection with the condominium structure agreed upon between the parties for the Condo-Hotel.

5.2 Condo-Hotel Services for the Residential Units.

5.2.1 Hotel Related Services, Transient Services and Other Services.

(a) Operator shall have the exclusive right to provide to the Residential Units the Hotel Related Services in accordance with the Condominium Documents.

Operator shall further have the right to determine the Hotel Related Services in its commercially reasonable discretion.

(b) Operator shall provide Residential Units that are rented to third parties (whether by a Rental Program Agreement or otherwise) with Transient Services. The exact nature and extent of the Transient Services to be provided to any category of Residential Units shall be subject to the Declaration and the agreement between Owner and Operator of the services to be performed in accordance therewith.

(c) In addition, Operator shall be obligated to (i) comply with and fulfill the terms and conditions of the Condominium Documents and (ii) provide appropriate staffing to the Condo-Hotel using good business judgment and in accordance with the standard of care as set forth in Section 3.3.

5.2.2 Furthermore, it is possible that the Unit Owners (or if there is more than one category of Unit Owners, particular categories of Unit Owners) will have the option to pay for and receive various “A la Carte Services” (provided that some A la Carte Services may be mandatory under the Rental Program) such as: (a) housekeeping services, (b) laundry services and dry cleaning services, (c) personal services (such as massage and personal training), (d) food and beverage services (such as room service and catering), (e) coordination of private air and land transportation, off-site restaurant reservations, florist services, tours, babysitters, car rentals and flight changes; (f) mail, newspaper and similar deliveries; (g) storage; and/or (h) other services to the extent deemed appropriate by Operator from time to time. The scope of the A la Carte Services, if any, to be provided to any category of Unit Owners shall be subject to the agreement of Operator and Owner, all in accordance with the standard of care as set forth in Section 3.3. The charges for the A la Carte Services shall be established by Operator as it reasonably determines from time to time and billed directly to the Unit Owners on a usage basis and paid to Operator on behalf of the Condo-Hotel, which usage charges may include a profit component to Operator. Operator and Owner shall have the right to condition the provision of any A la Carte Services to the Unit Owners upon the execution by such Unit Owner of a separate A la Carte Services agreement with Operator whereby, among other things, such Unit Owner agrees to pay directly to Operator the charges for all A la Carte Services requested by such Unit Owner or any of its designated guests or occupants. Operator shall prepare a budget annually for the estimated costs of the A la Carte Services, if any, and include such budget within the Project Budget, if applicable.

5.2.3 Either Party may withhold its approval of the Rental Program and/or the Rental Program Agreement, to the extent the proposed terms and conditions of the Rental Program and/or the Rental Program Agreement deviate from or conflict with the following:

(a) the Rental Program shall comply with all Legal Requirements;

(b) participation in the Rental Program shall be optional;

(c) Unit Owners may use any rental agent to rent their Residential Units and may also personally rent their Residential Units; and

(d) at no time shall any gross rooms revenues attributable to the applicable Participating Unit be “pooled” with the other Participating Units participating in the Rental Program.

5.3 Rental Program.

5.3.1 Operator shall, subject to Legal Requirements, prepare and determine the terms and conditions of the rental program pursuant to which all Unit Owners may rent their Residential Units in accordance with the Rental Program Agreement (the “Rental Program”); provided, however, that (i) Operator shall act reasonably and exercise prudent business judgment in preparing the Rental Program, all in accordance with the standard of care as set forth in Section 3.3; (ii) the Rental Program must (a) be for a term equal to or less than five (5) years, (b) be prepared in good faith in such a manner so as to optimize Gross Revenue and the rental split thereof, and (c) comply with the terms of Section 5.2.3(a)-5.2.3(d); and (iii) DW Member shall have the right to review the proposed Rental Program and shall advise Operator in writing of any objections to the Rental Program within ten (10) Business Days after Operator provides DW Member with such proposed Rental Program. Operator agrees to meet with DW Member, if requested by DW Member, during such ten (10) Business Day period to review and discuss the proposed Rental Program. Within ten (10) days after receiving DW Member’s written objection(s) to the proposed Rental Program, DW Member and Operator shall meet at the Condo-Hotel (or such other location as they may mutually agree) and endeavor in good faith to resolve such objections and arrive at an approved Rental Program. If they are unable to do so within ten (10) days after Operator receives DW Member’s written objection(s), Operator shall have the right to proceed forward and implement such proposed Rental Program, so long as it does not violate any terms regarding the Rental Program as set forth in this Agreement (specifically in this Section 5.2.3) and/or the Condominium Documents. Operator shall have the right to amend and/or modify the Rental Program in its sole but reasonable discretion; provided, however, that such revised Rental Program complies with the aforementioned provisions as set forth in this Section 5.3.1; and provided further, however, that Owner shall have the right to review and approve of such revised Rental Program, in its sole but reasonable discretion, to the extent that any such modifications are deemed to be material, but in no event shall Owner’s right to review and approve in this clause be greater than its right to review and approve the initial Rental Program as set forth above in this Section 5.3.1.

5.3.2 Pursuant to the terms of the Rental Program Agreement, Operator shall be obligated to perform all duties of Owner under the Rental Program Agreement.

5.3.3 Neither Owner nor Operator shall, under any circumstances, permit any Unit Owner to participate in the Rental Program, unless such Unit Owner has entered into a Rental Program Agreement.

manager (the “Association Management Agreement”) for the management of the governance and administrative matters of the Condominium Association.

5.5 Operator Covenants and Acknowledgments.

Operator hereby acknowledges and agrees as follows:

5.5.1 Owner cannot guarantee the participation of Residential Units in the Rental Program and, therefore, cannot guarantee to Operator a minimum level of transient occupancy at the Condo-Hotel at any given time. Accordingly, Operator covenants that, subject to the standard of care as set forth in Section 3.3 and at all times during the Term, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effectively manage the “fixed costs” associated with the operation of the Condo-Hotel (which comprise a portion of the Operating Expenses) in a manner so as to minimize any negative EBITDAM and, correspondingly, optimize EBITDAM; provided, however, that Operator shall not take any action that, in Operator’s reasonable judgment, would materially adversely affect its ability to operate the Condo-Hotel in accordance with this Agreement, including maintaining the Condo-Hotel in accordance with the Operating Standard (subject to any limitations set forth herein).

5.5.2 Owner shall be obligated to fund Operating Expenses and otherwise provide Working Capital or other funds necessary for Operator to perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the Project Budget and the terms and conditions herein. Owner shall not be required to fund any capital contributions or other amounts in connection therewith, unless such contributions are contemplated by the Project Budget and the Condominium Documents and have been approved by the appropriate parties.

5.6 Operator Rental Program Rights and Obligations. In addition to the terms and conditions of the Rental Program Agreement, Owner and Operator acknowledge and agree that Operator shall have the following rights and obligations in connection with the Rental Program:

5.6.1 Operator shall be responsible for the creation of a fair and equitable system of assignment with respect to the Participating Units, taking into account guest requests and preferences;

Condo-Hotel. In the event that the Condo-Hotel shall have negative EBITDAM during any Operating Year, then such calculated negative amounts shall be deducted from the calculation of EBITDAM (as defined in the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement) for the Resort Hotel and Casino in calculating the Incentive Management Fee (as defined in the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement) for the Resort Hotel and Casino.

defend and hold harmless Operator with respect to all costs, expenses, fines, damages or liability (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Operator may suffer as a result of Owner’s failure or refusal to comply with such Legal Requirement, (iii) Owner’s failure or refusal to comply with such Legal Requirement will not expose Operator to criminal liability or materially impair Operator’s ability to carry out its business, whether at the Condo-Hotel or elsewhere, and (iv) if compliance with such Legal Requirement has not been required by judicial or administrative order or a specific directive from a governmental authority, then Owner shall not be required to comply with such Legal Requirement for such time as Owner is diligently and continuously pursuing a good faith contest of such Legal Requirement.

7.1.7 Release of Obligation. At any time, Operator may, if it reasonably deems it to be necessary or appropriate, request written instructions from Owner within a reasonable period prior to the necessity for taking action with respect to any matter contemplated by this Agreement where the approval of Owner is required, or in those instances where Operator is cognizant of the fact that the approval of the Members of the Joint Venture is required under the Joint Venture Agreement, then Operator, as required, may defer action thereon pending receipt of such written instructions. Owner shall promptly respond to any such request for written instructions. Actions taken by Operator, its officers, employees and/or representatives in accordance with the written instructions of Owner, or failures to act by such persons pending the receipt of such written instructions, shall be deemed to be proper conduct within the scope of Operator’s authority under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 8

PERSONNEL

8.1 Hiring of Personnel. Operator shall provide all Personnel and shall have full control and authority over such Personnel. Operator shall use reasonable procedures and standards in the selection of each person employed at the Condo-Hotel to whom the foregoing duties or any of them shall be delegated. All Personnel shall be employees of Operator. Operator shall abide by all Legal requirements applicable to Personnel and shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Personnel to abide by Legal Requirements. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Project Budget, Operator shall have the exclusive right to: (i) establish and modify from time to time any and all Compensation, including all plans related thereto; and (ii) determine all matters with regard to such Personnel and laborers, including, without limitation, replacement of such Personnel and laborers. For the avoidance of doubt, Owner shall not have the right to, under any circumstances, direct or otherwise exert any authority or control over any Personnel or approve the hiring or dismissal of any Personnel, and all decisions relating to the employment of such Personnel, including (without limitation) the transfer and dismissal of such Personnel, shall be made by Operator.

8.2 Compensation of Personnel. The Compensation of Personnel and Other Personnel shall be an Operating Expense of the Condo-Hotel, shall be the responsibility of Owner, and may be paid for by Operator from the Operating Account. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if the Operating Account is insufficient to reimburse such Compensation, Owner shall be obligated to fund the aggregate Compensation with respect to each payroll period. The Compensation shall not include any form of corporate or other overhead or general and administrative allocation on behalf of any Personnel. During any Operating Year, pursuant to

this Agreement and in connection with all Project Agreements, it being understood that this limitation applies to the entire CityCenter Project„ Operator shall have not the right to designate (i) more than fifty (50) individuals as Other Personnel; or (ii) more than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) in base salary for Other Personnel in any Operating Year, in each case without obtaining Owner’s prior written approval. The Other Personnel shall be held to the same standard of responsibility and duty of care with respect to the Operating Standard as all Personnel. Operator under this Agreement, and the “Managers” under the Crystals Retail Management Agreement and the “Managers” under the Resort Hotel and Casino Management Agreement shall further ensure that designation of Other Personnel shall not cause any undue delay in the performance of such Other Personnel’s performance of their duties, increased cost or expense or other prejudice to the operation of the Condo-Hotel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Compensation paid to the Operator shall be an Operating Expense of the Condo-Hotel. For the avoidance of doubt, the aforementioned concept in this Section 8.2 shall be cumulative across the Project Agreements.

8.3 Personnel Information. To the extent not otherwise prohibited by Legal Requirements, upon request of Owner from time to time, Operator shall make available for inspection by Owner, (i) copies of all employee policies and procedures, including, without limitation, copies of employee manuals and handbooks in effect at the Condo-Hotel; and (ii) employee job classifications, number of employees in each job classification, job descriptions (if applicable), pay scales and benefits provided to each job classification.

8.4 Unions. Operator or its Affiliate shall have the authority to negotiate with any labor unions which are certified as or otherwise recognized as exclusive bargaining representatives of the Personnel; provided, however, Operator acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to whatever additional rights that DW Member may have under the Joint Venture Agreement, Operator shall (i) keep DW Member reasonably informed of all material discussions and negotiations with labor unions and their representatives, (ii) promptly deliver copies of all drafts of agreements and other material written communications therewith, (iii) from time to time meet with DW Member during such negotiations and discussions and in good faith take into account DW Member’s issues and concerns with respect thereto, and (iv) provide DW Member copies of all agreements as early as possible prior to their execution if it is possible to do so without jeopardizing the objective of the negotiations. In addition to the foregoing, Operator shall use and be subject to the standard of care set forth in Section 3.3 in its negotiation and execution of all agreements with all labor unions and other collective bargaining agreements (which standard of care shall include, but shall no be limited to, negotiating and executing agreements for the CityCenter Project that treat employees of Operator in a manner generally consistent with the treatment of employees of other similarly sized and class Operator Group Hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada). Finally, Operator shall notify Owner promptly of any material defaults under collective bargaining agreements, proceedings involving material union disputes and other similar proceedings and otherwise provide DW Member the same level of information and protection provided to DW Member in the negotiation of new agreements as provided in the proviso of the first sentence of this Section 8.4.

ARTICLE 9

PROJECT BUDGET

9.1 Submission and Approval of Project Budget.

9.1.1 Preparation of Proposed Project Budget. Prior to the beginning of each Operating Year, Operator shall submit the Project Budget for the Condo-Hotel to Owner for its review and written approval (subject to DW Member’s rights pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement). Operator shall act reasonably and exercise prudent business judgment in preparing each proposed Project Budget. Each proposed Project Budget shall include sufficient details with respect to an estimate of costs and expenses, revenue and profit, and a marketing budget, as may be requested or required by the Board of Directors, including, but not limited to, revenue and expense projections showing (by Residential Unit type) projected occupancy for Participating Units (and an estimate of proposed room rates for Participating Units) and cash distributions to Owner and all Unit Owners of Participating Units. In addition to the foregoing, each Project Budget shall provide a forecast of capital expenditures anticipated for the Condo-Hotel during the one year subsequent to the subject Operating Year for informational purposes only, so that Owner can reasonably anticipate the subsequent year’s potential expenditure, but Operator shall be bound to the Project Budget for any given Operating Year only.

9.1.2 Approval by Owner. Subject to and consistent with the protocols for the timing, review and completion of the Project Budget as mandated by the Joint Venture Agreement, Owner shall have the right to review and approve or disapprove of the proposed Project Budget and shall advise Operator in writing of any objections to the Project Budget as required by and consistent with the Joint Venture Agreement.

9.1.3 Resolution of Owner Objections Regarding Budget. At any time prior to the day which is sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of each Operating Year, if Owner and Operator have not resolved any objections to the Project Budget as set forth in Section 9.1.2, then any such dispute shall be governed by, and resolved in accordance with, the Joint Venture Agreement.

9.1.4 Interim Period. If the Project Budget has not been entirely approved by the beginning of the Operating Year to which it pertains, then pending such approval, the following items shall be addressed as follows:

(a) insurance, taxes, common charges, utilities, debt service, labor expenses and required capital expenditures (necessary to comply with any Legal Requirements or existing contractual obligations) shall each be adjusted to actual amounts,

(b) all capital and non-recurring items (other than the aforesaid required expenditures) for the current calendar year in such Project Budget shall remain the same as in the expiring Project Budget, and

(c) all other expense line items shall be adjusted by an amount equal to the CPI Annual Percentage Increase (as hereinafter defined) as of the date of the expiring Project Budget. The line items in the Project Budget have been approved by Owner shall replace the applicable line items in the prior Project Budget. The “CPI Annual Percentage Increase”

computed as of a particular calendar month shall be equal to the percentage difference between the CPI for such calendar month and the CPI for the calendar month which is twelve (12) months prior to such calendar month. With respect to the Project Budget, Operator shall operate the Condo-Hotel in accordance with the items or portions of the Project Budget which have not been objected to by Owner and, with respect to the items or portions of the Project Budget which have been objected to by Owner, Operator shall operate the Condo-Hotel in accordance with the previous Operating Year’s Project Budget, with suitable adjustments of rates and expenses as dictated by increases in the CPI and other expenses outside the control of the Condo-Hotel (e.g. utilities, taxes and insurance) adjusted to actual amounts.

9.1.5 Compliance with Project Budget. Operator shall use all reasonable efforts to act in accordance with the Project Budget (as modified by any subsequent changes agreed between Owner and Operator) for the corresponding Operating Year. However, it is understood that each Project Budget is an estimate only and that inflation, currency fluctuation, general market conditions, changes in business plans and strategies and unforeseen circumstances may make adherence to the Project Budget impracticable, and Operator shall be entitled to depart from it due to any such circumstances. Operator shall promptly notify and consult with Owner regarding any substantial change from the Project Budget, and to make any necessary adjustments to the Project Budget as Owner and Operator shall agree in light of unforeseen circumstances. Furthermore, Owner acknowledges and agrees as follows:

(a) With respect to the Condo-Hotel, certain expenses provided for in the Project Budget for any Operating Year will vary based on the occupancy and use of the Condo Hotel and, accordingly, to the extent that occupancy and use of the Condo-Hotel for any Operating Year exceeds the occupancy and use projected in the approved Project Budget for such Operating Year, such approved Project Budget shall be deemed to include corresponding increases in such variable expenses; provided, however, Operator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize Operating Expenses to the extent that occupancy and use of the Condo-Hotel for any Operating Year is less than the occupancy and use projected in the approved Project Budget for such Operating Year;

(b) To the extent allowed under the Condominium Documents, Operator shall have the right to pay from the Operating Account all Uncontrollable Expenses; provided, however, Operator hereby covenants and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts throughout the Term to manage, whenever reasonably possible, the Uncontrollable Expenses related to the Condo-Hotel and the operation thereof (including, by way of example, contesting, when reasonable appropriate, the amount and/or imposition of taxes);

(c) If any expenditures are required on an emergency basis to avoid damage to the Condo-Hotel and/or injury to persons or property, Operator may make such expenditures; provided, however, in connection with any expenditure required on an emergency basis that was not specifically contemplated in the Project Budget, Operator shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Owner prior to the time that the expenditures in question are made and shall in any event notify Owner as soon as reasonably possible after such expenditures are made, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the expenditures made without Owner’s approval, and (iii) to the extent possible, cooperate with Owner to develop a strategy for responding to the emergency in a reasonable and prudent, but cost-

efficient manner (i.e. in a manner that will minimize to the extent reasonably possible the expenses to Owner in responding to the subject emergency); and

(d) If any expenditures are required to comply with any Legal Requirement or to cure or prevent any violation thereof, Operator may make such expenditures.

In the event of the circumstances described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) immediately above, Operator shall have the right, power and authority to use (a) first, all or part of the Shared Components Reserve Fund, and (b) second, the monies in the Operating Account, for the making of such repairs.

Operator shall afford to Owner, any Member of Owner, and the accountants, attorneys and agents of Owner or such Member the right at any time and for any reason during the Term during normal business hours to inspect, at Owner’s sole cost and expense, the Condo-Hotel or examine and make extracts from the books and records of the Condo-Hotel. Such inspections and examinations shall be made with as little disruption to the business operations of the Condo-Hotel as reasonably practicable. Upon the termination of this Agreement, all books and records of the Condo-Hotel shall forthwith be turned over to Owner so as to ensure the orderly continuation of the operation of the Condo-Hotel; provided, however, that all such books and records shall thereafter be available for a period of five (5) years to Operator for inspection, audit, examination and extracting, at all reasonable times and at Operator’s sole cost and expense, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice to Owner.

11.3 Monthly and Quarterly Reports. Operator shall deliver to Owner, or to any Member upon request, within fifteen (15) days after the end of (i) each Accounting Month and (ii) each Quarterly Period; unaudited financial statements prepared from the books of account maintained by Operator with respect to the Condo-Hotel for each Accounting Month (“Monthly Statements”) and for each Quarterly Period (the “Quarterly Statements”) (the Monthly Statements and the Quarterly Statements, collectively, the “Reporting Period Statements”) containing: (a) a balance sheet as of the end of each Accounting Month and Quarterly Period; (b) an income statement showing the results of operation of the Condo-Hotel for each Accounting Month and Quarterly Period; and (c) a statement of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and EBITDAM. The Reporting Period Statements shall also show, to the extent applicable: (x) the amount of the Base Management Fee, Incentive Management Fee and/or any other fee payable to Operator pursuant to this Agreement, earned and accrued for the fiscal period then ended, and (y) an accounting with respect to the Shared Components Reserve Fund for the Condo-Hotel showing the amount deposited therein during the fiscal period then ended, the amounts withdrawn therefrom during such period, and a statement, in reasonable detail, showing the purpose or purposes for which such withdrawals were made. The Reporting Period Statements shall include, either as part of the report or by supplemental schedule, sufficient information from which Owner can determine, for the period in question the Reimbursable Expenses paid to Operator under Section 6.3. The cost of preparing the Reporting Period Statements for the Condo-Hotel for each Operating Year shall be charged as an Operating Expense.

11.4 Annual Statements. Operator shall, not later than twenty (20) days following the conclusion of each Operating Year, cause to be prepared and delivered to Owner or any Member upon request, unaudited financial statements for the preceding Operating Year containing all of the items required for the Monthly Statements as set forth in Section 11.3 as well as a comparison of the results of operations (as may be consolidated) for the Condo-Hotel for the Operating Year then ended with the applicable approved Project Budget and with the comparable period in the prior Operating Year (the “Annual Statement”). Operator shall assist and cooperate with the Managing Member in providing Annual Statements of the Owner, as audited by the Company Accounts, required to be delivered by the Managing Member under the Joint Venture Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent that, as part of the audited Annual Statements of Owner prepared in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, a separate audit is performed and prepared for the Condo-Hotel, such audited financials shall be provided to Owner.

11.5 Audit Right of DW Member. DW Member reserves the right, in its sole discretion, and without cost or expense to Owner (unless any such audit is approved by MGM Member pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, in which case the audit shall be an operating expense of the Owner or as further provided in this Section 11.5), to conduct inspections and to audit the books and records of the Condo-Hotel as maintained by Operator following reasonable written notice of its intention to do so and a brief description of any specific materials comprising the books and records which DW Member is seeking to examine. DW Member will cooperate with Operator to undertake such audit in a collaborative manner so as not to disrupt the business enterprise. In requesting such audit and inspection of the books and records of the Condo-Hotel, DW Member is not required to provide any reason or to assert any claim or disagreement with any information, financial reports, or financial information previously provided to DW Member in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. DW Member agrees to limit the exercise of its audit rights pursuant to this Section 11.5 to once in any twelve (12) month period, unless DW Member has a good faith reason to believe that an additional audit during such period is necessary or advisable. Operator shall provide to the Owner and DW Member the location of the books and records for the Condo-Hotel if such location is not at the offices of Operator. Operator shall no relocate the books and records relating to the Condo-Hotel, or if in electronic form, change the manner and form of access and storage for those records specific to the Condo-Hotel at any time during the Term without the prior written notice to and the consent of DW Member. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.5, if, during the course of any audit conducted pursuant to this Section 11.5, any of Gross Revenue or Operating Expenses as set forth in the Reporting Period Statements or Annual Statement, as applicable, for the Condo-Hotel are found to be overstated by either (i) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) of Gross Revenue or (ii) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of Operating Expenses, as the case may be, then Operator immediately shall (a) reimburse to the DW Member or Owner, as applicable, the cost of such audit out of Operator’s own funds, and (b) correct the misstatements and pay any amounts owing to the DW Member or Owner, as applicable, as shown by such audit; provided, however, that the DW Member or Owner, as applicable, shall only be entitled to such reimbursement if the cost of such audit is reasonable in light of discrepancies sought or in good faith proposed to be recovered. If any audit conducted pursuant to this Section 11.5 discloses an overstatement greater than any of the thresholds in the immediately preceding sentence, then Operator immediately shall correct the misstatements and pay any amounts owing to the DW Member or Owner, as applicable.

ARTICLE 12

CENTRALIZED SERVICES AND REIMBURSABLE SERVICES

12.1 Non-Reimbursable Centralized Services. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Development Management Agreement, MGM MIRAGE and/or its Affiliates shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Condo-Hotel the centralized services, which consist of services provided directly by MGM MIRAGE utilizing its internal resources and as described below, as well as all other services that are presently and from time to time in the future generally provided by MGM MIRAGE and/or its Affiliates to the Operator Group Hotels to the extent consistent with the Operating Standard (collectively, the “Centralized Services”). Under no circumstances shall any third party expense incurred solely for the benefit of the Condo-Hotel be included as a Centralized Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while Owner acknowledges and agrees that the services that presently comprise the Centralized Services are not static and may be changed, modified, amplified, upgraded and revised from time to time by MGM MIRAGE and its Affiliates, MGM MIRAGE and Operator and their respective Affiliates acknowledge and agree that: (i) MGM MIRAGE and Operator and their respective Affiliates may add, reduce or eliminate any Centralized Services provided to Owner and to the Condo-Hotel only in the event that the same are added, reduced or eliminated at all or substantially all other Operator Group Hotels; and (ii) in the event of a material addition, reduction or elimination of some or all of the Centralized Services, the Operating Fee may be equitably adjusted only after consultation with Owner and DW Member and good faith negotiation amongst such parties concerning any such proposed adjustment which in no event shall be less favorable than the proportionate adjustment of the corporate allocation to the Operator Group Hotels. In the event that MGM MIRAGE and, with the consent of DW Member, Owner are unable to reach agreement concerning the adjustment to be made, then in the case of an addition, the proposed service shall not be added and in the case of a reduction or an elimination the Operating Fee shall be reduced by an amount equal to the costs associated with the provision of the eliminated or reduced service each Operating Year during the Term.

12.1.1 Advertising. MGM MIRAGE shall provide the professional and administrative support utilizing its internal resources for the advertising campaign of the Condo-Hotel and the CityCenter Project including, but not limited to, media placement, agency management and other services as may change from time to time. In addition, MGM MIRAGE shall include the Condo-Hotel, as appropriate, in any centralized marketing program that includes the other Operator Group Hotels in a similar brand position.

12.1.2 Information Systems. The Condo-Hotel shall utilize all information systems necessary to enable the Condo-Hotel to function both independently and with the Operator Group Hotels, including each of the systems, licenses, facilities, and services, including, but not limited to access to the “Help Desk” and corporate IS support, typically provided to the other Operator Group Hotels.

12.1.3 Centralized Marketing. MGM MIRAGE shall provide centralized marketing services, both national and international, to the Condo-Hotel to promote, develop and sustain relationships with existing casino customers as is typically provided to the top brands within the other Operator Group Hotels. This shall include support from any established national or international branch offices.

12.1.4 Other Corporate Allocations. MGM MIRAGE shall supply to the Condo-Hotel, among other things, each of the products and services set forth on Exhibit B as is typically provided to the other Operator Group Hotels.

12.1.5 Purchasing. As of the Effective Date, Operator maintains the Purchasing Program as a Centralized Service at prices and terms that generally reflect competitive market rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Operator hereby covenants and agrees that it shall act in a prudent manner when purchasing items for the Condo-Hotel and in a manner consistent with the standard of care set forth in Section 3.3, whether under a Purchasing Program or otherwise, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve the lowest available price for any Equipment or Operating Equipment being purchased (provided that such Equipment and Operating Equipment is in compliance with the Operating Standard) and (ii) any rebate received from a vendor or supplier under a contract for the Condo-Hotel (or for any regional or national contract covering other Operator Group Hotels) shall be equitably apportioned to Owner in the case of regional or national contracts.

12.2 Cost and Expense. Other than as specifically provided for in the Development Management Agreement, the Centralized Services (other than third party expenses) shall be provided at no cost or expense to Owner and the Condo-Hotel (as the same are included in the payment of Operating Fees), and, other than as specifically provided for in the Development Management Agreement, Operator acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall MGM MIRAGE or Operator or any Affiliate thereof pass through to Owner or the Condo-Hotel or otherwise seek payment or reimbursement (as Reimbursable Expenses or otherwise) from Owner or the Condo-Hotel for any costs whatsoever incurred by MGM MIRAGE or Managers or any of their respective Affiliates (whether in the form of rent, utilities or other overhead, employee compensation, benefits or other or personnel costs, or any other internal cost or expense in any form incurred by MGM MIRAGE or Managers or any Affiliate thereof) for providing any Centralized Services.

12.3 Reimbursable Services. In addition to the Centralized Services provided pursuant to Section 12.1 above, Operator shall provide the services set forth in this Section 12.3 (the “Reimbursable Services”), and subject to Section 6.3, Operator and/or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall be reimbursed for all actual and reimbursable Operating Expenses directly incurred by such Operator or Affiliates in providing such Reimbursable Services.

(a) Bookings. Operator shall secure bookings for the Condo-Hotel for which reservations and advance bookings are consistent with industry requirements and the Operating Standard, through Operator’s sales and reservations offices and other distribution and sales systems, and shall encourage the use of the Condo-Hotel by tourists, special groups, travel congresses, travel agencies, airlines, and other recognized sources of Condo-Hotel business. Operator shall process reservations for the Condo-Hotel through Operator’s and its Affiliates’ worldwide communications network. To facilitate Operator’s provision of such reservations services, Owner agrees that the Condo-Hotel shall be listed in all airline reservations systems (which include what are known in the hospitality industry as global distribution systems) under the applicable code for Resort Hotel and Casinos operated under the “MGM MIRAGE” and “CityCenter” name. In addition to and independent from the reservations telephone line or communications device maintained by Operator or its Affiliates in connection with the

worldwide communications network of Operator and its Affiliates, Owner may, at its own election, also maintain and use (and require Operator to use) in connection with the Condo-Hotel a separate and dedicated toll-free or similar telephone line or communications device for making reservations at the Condo-Hotel. Throughout the Term, Owner shall permit Operator to load into the reservations system maintained by Operator and its Affiliates, and to maintain on a current basis, the Condo-Hotel total rooms inventory and all associated room rates.

ARTICLE 13

INSURANCE

13.1 Insurance to Be Maintained by Owner During Term. At all times during the Term, Owner shall procure and maintain, on behalf of Owner and Operator, insurance coverage respecting the Condo-Hotel in consultation with Operator. All premiums and other costs of such insurance, and any applicable deductibles or co-insurance requirements, shall be an Operating Expense of the Condo-Hotel. If Owner and Operator shall mutually agree, Operator shall procure such insurance on behalf of Owner. Operator does not purport to be an advisor on insurance matters and as between Owner and Operator, it shall be Owner’s responsibility to cause itself to be adequately insured. Operator shall propose the insurance coverage respecting the Condo-Hotel to be set forth in the Business Plan (as such term is defined in the Joint Venture Agreement) for submission to Owner for review and approval in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement. The delivery of the proposal for the insurance coverage shall be made as soon as reasonably possible following the Effective Date. Furthermore, Owner shall be authorized to modify the insurance coverage that Operator, in accordance with the standard of care as set forth in Section 3.3 hereof, believes is in the best interest of the Condo-Hotel and to the extent that such modification would not constitute a Major Decision.

13.2 Insurance to Be Maintained by Manager During Term. Operator shall obtain and maintain (either itself or through blanket general liability insurance policies carried by MGM MIRAGE) during the Term of this Agreement insurance in the forms and coverages, policy limitations and amounts as are customarily obtained and retained by managers of similar projects in the hotel, casino, Gaming, and leisure and resort industry. All such coverages shall be at Operator’s (or, if applicable, MGM MIRAGE’S) sole cost and expense and shall not be an Operating Expense.

13.3 Waiver of Liability. Neither Operator nor Owner shall assert against the other, and each does hereby waive with respect to the other to the extent it is legally possible to do so, any Claims incurred or sustained by it on account of damage or injury to persons or property arising out of the ownership, operation or maintenance of the Condo-Hotel, to the extent that the same are covered by the proceeds received as a result of any insurance, so long as such waiver does not adversely affect such insurance coverage. Owner or the Operator, as the case may be, shall cause all policies to contain a waiver of subrogation clause to the extent the same shall be available at no extra cost and shall notify the other if a waiver of subrogation clause is not available at no extra cost, to permit Owner and Operator to determine if additional payments should be made to obtain the waiver of subrogation clause. The provisions of this Section 13.3 are intended to restrict each Party (as permitted by Legal Requirements) to recovery against insurance carriers to the extent of such coverage and waive fully, and for the benefit of each, any rights and/or Claims which might give rise to a right of subrogation in any insurance carrier.

ARTICLE 14

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

14.1 Confidential Information. The Parties agree that the matters set forth in this Agreement are strictly confidential. In addition, the parties agree to keep strictly confidential all information of a proprietary or confidential nature about or belonging to the other Party or to any Affiliate of such Party to which the other Party gains or has access by virtue of the relationship between the Parties. Except as disclosure may be required to obtain the advice of professionals or consultants, or financing for the Condo-Hotel from an institutional lender, or in furtherance of a permitted assignment of this Agreement, or as may be required by law or by the order of any government, regulatory authority, or tribunal or otherwise to comply with Legal Requirements (including reporting requirements applicable to companies the shares or stock of which are traded on any stock exchange anywhere in the world) whether or not having the force of law, each party shall make every effort to ensure that such information is not disclosed to any third party without the prior consent of the other Party.

ARTICLE 15

MORTGAGES AND FINANCING

15.1 Right to Mortgage. Owner shall have the absolute and unrestricted right from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion to encumber all of the assets that comprise the Condo-Hotel, or any part thereof, all as contemplated in any Mortgage and/or Financing Instrument that is entered into by the Owner, and to assign all of the Owner’s right, title and interest in and to the Condo-Hotel or any part thereof as security for any Mortgage and/or Financing Instrument.

15.2 Subordination. Operator agrees that this Agreement shall in all respects be and is hereby expressly made subordinate and inferior to the liens, security interest and/or terms of any Mortgage and to the promissory note (or other evidence of repayment obligation) and other indebtedness now secured or hereafter to be secured thereby and to all other instruments evidencing or securing or to evidence or secure said indebtedness, and all amendments, modifications, supplements, consolidations, extensions and revisions of such note and other instruments.

15.3 Evidence of Subordination; Delivery of Separate Documents and Instruments. In addition, Operator shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from Owner or any Mortgagee and/or lender under any Financing Instrument, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all estoppel certificates and other documents (including, without limitation, a subordination agreement allowing any such Mortgagee and/or lender to terminate Operator’s duties and obligations under this Agreement upon foreclosure) requested by the Owner and/or Mortgagee and/or any lender under any Financing Instrument that subordinates or evidences the subordination of this Agreement and Operator’s rights thereunder to any such Mortgage and/or Financing Instrument.

ARTICLE 16

PERFORMANCE TERMINATION

16.1 Performance Test. In addition to any other termination rights of Owner as set forth herein, Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event of a Performance Test Failure. For purposes of this Section 16.1, a “Performance Test Failure” shall occur when the EBITDAM of the Condo-Hotel for any two (2) consecutive Operating Years (the “Performance Test Period”) commencing after the first (1st) Operating Year following the Opening Date (with the first Performance Test Period being the second (2nd) and third (3rd) full Operating Years following the Opening Date) for the Condo-Hotel is less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the EBITDAM set forth in the Project Budgets for the applicable Operating Years. In the event of a Performance Test Failure as set forth in this Section 16.1, Owner shall have the right, subject to Section 16.2, to terminate this Agreement provided that (a) a written notice of termination shall be given to Operator within sixty (60) days after receipt by Owner of the applicable Certified Financial Statements, and (b) such notice shall specify a termination date not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in determining whether a Performance Test Failure has occurred, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the EBITDAM shall be equitably adjusted to account for the following circumstances: (1) a Force Majeure Event, (2) failure of Owner to provide Working Capital funds as required under this Agreement, or any other Event of Default, (3) a Casualty, (4) a Condemnation, or (5) if the Condo-Hotel has fewer Residential Units participating in the Rental Program than projected.

16.2 Cure Right. Notwithstanding Section 16.1, if Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to such Section 16.1, and shall have delivered a written notice of such termination in accordance with such Section 16.1, then within ninety (90) days after receipt by Operator of such notice, Operator shall have the right (the “Cure Right”), but not the obligation, to pay to Owner the difference between (a) seventy-five percent (75%) of the projected EBITDAM set forth in the Project Budgets for both Operating Years giving rise to Owner’s right to terminate, and (b) the actual EBITDAM for such Operating Years. In the event Operator exercises its Cure Right and makes such payment, Owner’s notice of termination shall be deemed withdrawn and Owner shall not have the right to send another notice of termination unless the conditions of Section 16.1 are met for each of two (2) consecutive Operating Years thereafter, in which case the Cure Right may be exercised again.

ARTICLE 17

DEFAULT AND TERMINATION

17.1 Events of Default.

17.1.1 Events of Default on the Part of Either Party. The following will, at Operator’s election, constitute an event of default by Owner under this Agreement (each such event being referred to herein as an “Event of Default”) but Operator acknowledges and agrees that Owner will not be in default or breach of this Agreement if such default or breach arises from an action or omission of Operator or any of its Affiliates (including without limitation MGM MIRAGE) or arises regarding a matter that is within the control of Operator or its Affiliates (including without limitation MGM MIRAGE):

(a) Monetary. The failure of either Party to pay to the other Party when due any sum which may become due with respect to the Condo-Hotel within ten (10) days after receipt by the defaulting Party of written notice from the other Party specifying such failure;

(b) Non-Monetary. The failure by any Party timely to perform, keep or fulfill all or any portion of the material terms, covenants, undertakings, obligations or conditions set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Condo-Hotel, and the continuance of such failure for a period of sixty (60) days after receipt by the defaulting Party of written notice thereof from the other Party specifying such failure, provided that in the event such failure is amenable to cure and is of a nature that it cannot, with due diligence, all commercially reasonable efforts, and in good faith, be cured within sixty (60) days, it shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such defaulting Party fails to proceed promptly and with due diligence, all commercially reasonable efforts, and in good faith to cure the same, and thereafter to prosecute the curing of such failure with due diligence and in good faith (it being intended that, in connection with a failure not susceptible of being cured with diligence and in good faith within sixty (60) days, the time of such defaulting Party within which to cure the same shall be extended for such period as may be necessary for the curing thereof with due diligence, all commercially reasonable efforts and in good faith);

(c) Insolvency. If any Party shall apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of such Party or of all or a substantial part of its assets, file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they come due, make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, file a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or agreement with a creditor or take advantage of any insolvency law, or file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding, or if an order, judgment or decree shall be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction, on the application of a creditor, adjudicating such Party a bankrupt or insolvent or approving a petition seeking reorganization of such Party or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of such Party or of all or a substantial part of its assets, and such order, judgment or decree shall continue unstayed and in effect for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or

(d) Transfer. If any Party shall assign this Agreement in violation of Section 21.7;

(e) Default by MGM MIRAGE. Any breach or default by MGM MIRAGE of the provisions of Section 21.5 of this Agreement.

17.2 Excused Non-Performance. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, Operator shall be excused from the performance of any obligation hereunder (including the obligation to operate the Condo-Hotel in conformity with the Operating Standard), and shall not be deemed in default, for such period of time as such performance is prevented by a Force Majeure Event, a breach of this Agreement by Owner or a limitation imposed on Operator’s ability to expend funds in respect of the Condo-Hotel, due to Owner’s act or Owner’s failure to act upon Operator’s request for funds (provided Operator has provided Owner with reasonably timely notice of the need for additional funds and that the failure to expend funds by

reason of the operation of such limitation shall reasonably prevent Operator from meeting such obligation).

17.3 Remedies and Other Termination Rights.

17.3.1 Right to Terminate upon an Event of Default as set forth in Section 17.1.1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the non-defaulting Party shall, at its option, give to the defaulting Party notice, following the expiration of the applicable cure period as may be set forth in Section 17.1.1(a) through Section 17.1.1(e), of its intention to pursue any right to any and all remedies (including specific performance, indemnification for breach of this Agreement and other equitable relief or any and all right to damages) which the non-defaulting Party may have against the defaulting Party under Legal Requirements or equity subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur with respect to this Agreement that does not constitute a Material Event of Default, the non-defaulting Party shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, but shall have the right to exercise any and all remedies (including specific performance and other equitable relief or any and all right to damages or claims to indemnification) which the non-defaulting Party may have against the defaulting Party under Legal Requirements or equity subject to the terms of this Agreement.

17.3.2 Right to Terminate upon Material Breach of the Standard of Care. In the event that Operator shall commit a breach of the standard of care set forth in Section 3.3, then DW Member may, at its option, give to the defaulting Party notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement after the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such notice if the Event of Default has not been cured prior to expiration of such thirty (30) day period, and, upon expiration of such period, this Agreement shall terminate on the date specified in the notice. Such termination shall be without prejudice to any right to any and all remedies (including specific performance and other equitable relief or any and all right to damages) which the non-defaulting Party may have against the defaulting Party under Legal Requirements or equity subject to the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a breach under this Section 17.3.2 shall be deemed a Material Event of Default.

17.3.3 Right to Terminate upon a Material Event of Default, Condo-Hotel. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if an Event of Default (or series of related Events of Default) shall occur with respect to the CityCenter Project (or any Component thereof) pursuant to any of the Project Agreements that would, in the aggregate, result in a monetary loss to either Party in excess of Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) (a “Material Event of Default”), the non-defaulting Party may, at its option, give to the defaulting Party notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement after the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such notice if the Event of Default has not been cured prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, and, upon expiration of such period, this Agreement shall terminate on the date specified in the notice. Such termination shall be without prejudice to any right to any and all remedies (including specific performance and other equitable relief or any and all right to damages) which the non-defaulting Party may have against the defaulting Party under Legal Requirements or equity subject to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur with respect to this Agreement that does not constitute a Material Event of Default, the non-defaulting Party shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, but shall

have the right to exercise any and all remedies (including specific performance and other equitable relief or any and all right to damages or claims to indemnification) which the non-defaulting Party may have against the defaulting Party under Legal Requirements or equity subject to the terms of this Agreement.

17.3.4 Cross Termination. The Parties acknowledge and agree that a termination of the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement for any reason shall result in the immediate termination of this Agreement and the Crystals Retail Management Agreement, without further action of the Parties, which termination shall be effective on, at and as of on the effective date of the termination of the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement.

17.3.5 Governmental Approvals. In the event any such approval or permit, or any such approval or permit in connection with Operator operation of the premises, cannot be obtained or can be obtained but only in connection or compliance with, or upon the satisfaction of, requirements, limitations or restrictions which are not reasonably satisfactory to Owner or Operator, either the Owner or Operator may, in its respective sole discretion, terminate this Agreement.

17.4 DW Member Enforcement; Termination Rights. DW Member shall have the power and authority to enforce any breach or to allege and enforce any Event of Default under this Agreement without the necessity of including Owner in any such action, it being understood that the right of the DW Member to enforce and require the performance of all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Agreement is an independent right granted by the Parties to DW Member pursuant to this Agreement. Operator acknowledges to and for the benefit of DW Member that it does not and is not authorized to waive, on behalf of Owner, the occurrence or continuance of any default or Event of Default or Material Event of Default of this Agreement without the prior written consent of DW Member, which consent may be withheld by DW Member in its sole and absolute discretion. In addition, DW Member may, in its sole and absolute discretion, enforce the provisions of this Agreement and terminate this Agreement on behalf of Owner immediately upon written notice to Operator if:

17.4.1 At any time during the Term, the Owner has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 17.3.

17.4.2 At any time during the Term, Operator or its Affiliates cease, collectively, to own directly or indirectly at least ten percent (10%) of the equity of the Owner as a result of the Transfer of such equity interest to DW Member or an Affiliate thereof;

17.4.3 A foreclosure on the CityCenter Project occurs (unless, pursuant to any subordination and non-disturbance agreement between Operator, Mortgagee and/or a lender, this Agreement may otherwise remain in place); or

17.4.4 Owner Transfers the CityCenter Project to an unrelated bona fide third-Party purchaser (unless the purchaser, at its option, elects to keep this Agreement in place for the remaining Term or portion thereof).

In the event of any such termination in accordance with this Section 17.4, in no event shall Owner or DW Member be required to pay to MGM MIRAGE or Operator a termination fee, penalty or additional fee.

17.5 Operator’s Termination Rights. Operator may, on behalf of MGM MIRAGE, in its sole and absolute discretion, in addition to any other termination right granted to Operator in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Owner if:

17.5.1 At any time during the Term, DW Member or its Affiliates cease, collectively, to own directly or indirectly at least ten percent (10%) of the equity of the Owner as a result of the Transfer of such equity interest to Operator or an Affiliate thereof; or

17.5.2 Owner Transfers the CityCenter Project to an unrelated bona fide third-Party purchaser.

In the event of any such termination in accordance with this Section 17.5, in no event shall MGM MIRAGE or Operator be required to pay to Owner or any member or other equity owners of Owner a termination fee, penalty or additional fee.

17.6 Rights and Obligations on Termination. Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the termination of this Agreement shall not affect (a) the rights of either Party with respect to liability or claims accrued, or arising out of events occurring prior to the date of the termination of this Agreement, or (b) specific rights which this Agreement provides shall survive termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason under this or any other Article contained herein, the following provisions, which shall survive termination of this Agreement, shall be applicable in addition to, and without limiting any other rights of Owner or Operator pursuant to this Agreement or at law or equity:

17.6.1 Amounts Due; Receivables. All accrued and unpaid fees, charges, reimbursements, and other payments due Operator under this Agreement as of the date of termination (including but not limited to any portion of any Operating Fees, and any portion of any Compensation and any other Reimbursable Expenses) shall be paid by Owner to Operator within ten (10) days after the remittance to Owner by Operator of statements therefor. All accrued unpaid amounts, charges, reimbursements, and other payments due Owner by Operator pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by Operator to Owner within thirty (30) days of termination or expiration of the applicable agreement. The Operating Account and any remaining funds therein after payment of the foregoing shall be promptly transferred to Owner. All receivables of the Condo-Hotel outstanding as of the effective date of termination, including, without limitation, guest ledger receivables, shall continue to be the property of Owner.

17.6.2 Permits. To the extent assignable, Operator shall assign and transfer to Owner all of Operator’s right, title and interest in and to all liquor, restaurant and other licenses and permits, if any, which apply solely to the Condo-Hotel. Operator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Owner with a complete listing of all permits and licenses (whether or not in Operator’s name or in the name of Owner) as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the effective date of termination so as to permit Owner or successor operator sufficient time to apply

for new licenses or permits or to effect transfer to Owner’s name or the name of successor operator.

17.6.3 Vacate. Operator shall peacefully vacate and surrender the Condo-Hotel to Owner, and shall deliver to Owner any and all keys, locks and safe combinations, reservation lists, ledgers, bank statements for the Operating Account, budgets, accounting books and records, insurance policies, bonds and other documents, memoranda, schedules, lists, contracts, agreements, leases, licenses, with respect to the Condo-Hotel all as is reasonably necessary to permit continued and uninterrupted operation of the Condo-Hotel, complete copies of correspondence, other files and records generated by Operator in the course of operating the Condo-Hotel and relating exclusively to the Condo-Hotel, nonproprietary software used in the accounting, reservation and other systems of the Condo-Hotel and any licenses required for use thereof, all depository accounts for the Condo-Hotel including the Operating Account and the Shared Components Reserve Fund, and other items required for the operation of the Condo-Hotel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operator shall not be required to assign to Owner pursuant to the foregoing sentence any Proprietary Information. Accounting and other books and records shall include all electronic as well as paper records, except in the case of any software that is proprietary to Operator or its Affiliates. If any such non-Proprietary Information is maintained Operator or its Affiliates in a regional or central location and is not located at the Condo-Hotel, Operator shall cause such information with respect to the Condo-Hotel to be electronically transferred into systems designated by Owner (including systems of a successor operator) to the extent electronic data is compatible with Owner’s or successor operator’s systems and if not compatible shall cooperate, in all reasonable respects, with Owner and the successor operator in seeking to convert such data to a compatible format. Costs and expenses incurred in connection with any of the foregoing shall be an Owner expense and shall not be the obligation or liability of Operator.

Owner shall honor, and shall cause any successor operator to honor, all business confirmed for the Condo-Hotel, as applicable, with reservations

dated after the effective date of termination in accordance with such bookings as have been accepted by Operator.

17.6.7 Turn-Over of Guest Property. With respect to the Condo-Hotel, Operator and Owner will employ customary procedures on the date of termination for the transfer of custody of and responsibility for guest property checked with the Condo-Hotel, as applicable, including stored luggage (which will be inventoried and tagged) and safe deposit boxes (each of which will be sealed until the depositor has been notified to check the contents, then opened in the presence of a representative of Operator and Owner).

17.6.8 Financial Statements. Operator shall prepare and deliver to Owner, within thirty (30) days following the effective date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, an accounting as described in Section 11.4, which accounting shall be in final form to the extent practicable, the cost of which shall be an Operating Expense of the Condo-Hotel. Operator shall continue to cooperate with Owner and be available, and make any books and records available to the extent necessary, in order for Owner and the accountants to prepare the Annual Statement for the Condo-Hotel for the last such Operating Year as provided in Section 11.4, including specifically the period up to the termination date together, to the extent applicable, with the calculation of the amount of the Operating Fee through the effective date of termination.

Owner acknowledges that since the Personnel will be employees of Operator and/or its Affiliates (unless otherwise permitted or provided herein), the termination of this Agreement may result in a termination of such Personnel. Upon termination of this Agreement, an escrow fund shall be established from Gross Revenue (or with funds provided by Owner if Gross Revenue is insufficient) to, subject to Section 6.3, reimburse Operator and its Affiliates for all Personnel liability costs and expenses incurred by Operator or its Affiliates arising out of either the transfer or termination of employment of the Personnel, including, without limitation, severance and seniority payments, reasonable transfer costs, and unemployment compensation. The determination of liability as to the payment of the foregoing expenses attributed to Personnel upon termination of this Agreement including liability for all accrued payroll, accrued benefits (such as benefit plans, pension plans, profit sharing plans, vacation pay and sick days and other similar accrued employment liabilities, including, without limitation, severance obligations), and other employment matters if any, through and including the date of such termination shall be made in connection with the overall determination and award of damages or compensation, if any, following such termination to the Party not causing the Event of Default or right of termination under this Agreement.

17.7 WARN Act; 401(k) Compliance.

17.7.1 WARN Act. Owner acknowledges that Operator or its Affiliates may have an obligation under federal, state, or local law to give advance notice to the Personnel of any termination of their employment, and that failure to comply with any such notification obligation could give rise to civil liabilities. Operator and Owner shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Owner in carrying out the advance notice requirements of any Legal Requirements, and any failure by either Operator or Owner in that regard shall be a breach of this Agreement.

17.7.2 401(k) Compliance. On any termination or expiration of this Agreement, whether by Transfer of the Condo-Hotel, expiration of the Term of this Agreement, or early termination through exercise of other rights of the Parties hereto, if the successor employer will, or intends to, offer a 401(k) plan for the Personnel of the Condo-Hotel, and if such Personnel participate in a 401(k) plan at such time, Owner or its successor (or the successor of Operator) shall offer a 401(k) plan to such of the participating employees who will continue to work at the Condo-Hotel thereafter, and the new Owner or successor Operator shall accept (and is permitted to accept under its plan and applicable law) a trust-to-trust transfer of the participants’ 401(k) assets in a manner that complies with all applicable law and the Condo-Hotel will make such transfer subject to reasonable assurances that the transfer will satisfy all Legal Requirements and not adversely affect its 401(k) plan.

ARTICLE 18

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

18.1 Casualty. In the event the Condo-Hotel (or any component thereof) shall be damaged or destroyed by any Casualty, Owner shall have the right, in its sole option, in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement and the Condominium Documents (specifically Section 14 of the Declaration), to elect whether or not to undertake a restoration of the Condo-Hotel or any damaged component thereof. In the event Owner elects to proceed with the restoration, (i) Owner shall, in a commercially reasonable manner, undertake the restoration with respect to that portion of the Condo-Hotel owned by Owner and, with respect to that portion of the Condo-Hotel not owned by Owner, Owner shall exercise its rights under the Condominium Documents, if any, to cause the Condominium Association and/or Unit Owners, as applicable, to undertake the restoration with respect to that portion owned by the Condominium Association and/or the Unit Owners, and (ii) Operator shall provide such technical and development assistance as reasonably necessary to complete such restoration in a timely and cost-efficient manner, at Owner’s sole cost and expense. Any insurance proceeds obtained as a result of a Casualty shall be held by Owner in trust and allocated in accordance with the terms set forth in the Condominium Documents, including, but not limited to, the provisions of Section 14.2 of the Declaration.

18.2 Condemnation. If all or substantially all of the Condo-Hotel (or any component thereof) shall be taken or condemned in any eminent domain, condemnation, compulsory acquisition or like proceeding by (or a deed in lieu of condemnation given by Owner to) any competent authority for any public or quasi public use or purpose (hereinafter called a “Condemnation”), or if such a portion of the Condo-Hotel (or any component thereof) shall be the subject of a Condemnation so as to make it imprudent or unreasonable, in the reasonable opinion of Owner, to use the remaining portion in the same fashion as immediately preceding such Condemnation, then in either event either Owner or Operator shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in the event of a Condemnation of all or substantially all of the Condo-Hotel, as of the earlier to occur of (i) the date that Owner shall be required to surrender possession of the Condo-Hotel or such portion thereof as a consequence of such Condemnation, and (ii) ninety (90) days after the date on which such determination, and neither Party shall have any obligation to the other excluding those obligations that expressly survive this Agreement. Other than a Condemnation that affects the Condo-Hotel, if a Condemnation affects only a part of the Condo-Hotel (or any component thereof) that does not make it imprudent, unsuitable or

commercially impractical to operate the remainder of the Condo-Hotel (or any component thereof) in the same fashion as immediately preceding such Condemnation, this Agreement shall not terminate. Any Condemnation award or similar compensation received by Owner on account of any Condemnation as set forth in this Section 18.2 shall be the property of Owner (and, possibly, the Unit Owners, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Condominium Documents, including, but not limited to, Section 15.1 of the Declaration), and Operator shall make no claim with respect thereto. Should Owner decide, pursuant to its rights and obligations set forth in Section 15 of the Declaration, to alter, repair, rebuild or replace those portions of the Condo-Hotel owned by Owner, Owner shall do so in a manner so as to make the Condo-Hotel a satisfactory architectural unit as a condo-hotel of substantially similar type and class as prior to the Condemnation, and with respect to portion of the Condo-Hotel not owned by Owner, Owner shall exercise its rights under the Condominium Documents, if any, to cause the Condominium Association to repair, rebuild or replace the Condo-Hotel so as to make the Condo-Hotel a satisfactory architectural unit as a condo-hotel of substantially similar type and class as prior to the Condemnation.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

21.1 Owner’s Consultants. Operator shall cooperate with such Owner’s consultants and representatives, and also shall cooperate with Owner and any actual or prospective purchaser, underwriter, lender or other person in connection with any actual or proposed sale, investment, offering, debt placement or financing of or related to the Condo-Hotel (provided that Operator shall not be required to release to any such person any of Operator’s Proprietary Information or by reason of such cooperation incur any underwriting liability). Such cooperation may include the preparation of customary lists and schedules (such as, for example, for inventories) and other information relating to the Condo-Hotel, to the extent regularly maintained or compiled, or if the requested information is reasonably available to Operator, as may be reasonably requested by a prospective purchaser, underwriter, lender or other person.

21.2 Third-Party Operated Areas. The Parties acknowledge that certain areas of the CityCenter Project may be operated by Third-Party Operators under a lease, operating agreement, franchise agreement or similar agreement. The operation of any Third-Party Operated Areas by a Third-Party Operator, and the selection of a Third-Party Operator for such Third-Party Operated Areas, shall be subject to the approval of both Owner and Operator (to the extent the approval of such Third-Party Operator constitutes a Major Decision). Any lease, operating agreement, franchise agreement or similar agreement with a Third-Party Operator shall: (i) be consistent with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) require the Third-Party Operators to operate the Third-Party Operated Areas in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement and; (iii) be subject to the review and prior written approval of the Operator. For the avoidance of doubt, all lease or rental income derived from Third-Party Operated Areas shall be included in Gross Revenue, but all gross receipts derived from the operation of Third-Party Operated Areas shall be excluded from Gross Revenue.

21.3 Management of Infrastructure. The management, operation and maintenance of the Infrastructure shall be governed by the Hotel and Casino Management Agreement. In connection therewith, Owner acknowledges and agrees that the Condo-Hotel shall be charged with its fair and reasonable share of the costs of the routine operation, inspection and maintenance of the Infrastructure and any utilities and/or common fixtures located thereon to the

extent shared by or provided for the benefit of the Condo-Hotel. The Condo-Hotel’s share of such costs shall be paid from Gross Revenue as an Operating Expense.

Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, it is not intended that any such provisions benefit, and it shall not be construed that these provisions benefit or are enforceable by, any creditors, contractors, brokers or other third parties.

21.5 Guaranty.

21.5.1 MGM MIRAGE hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Owner and its successors and assigns the payment and performance of any and all obligations, performances, indemnities, liabilities and undertakings as and when the same shall be required to be performed, discharged or become due or payable by or on behalf of Manager in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”) to the end and intent that MGM MIRAGE shall be liable to Owner at all times and to the same extent and tenor as Operator hereunder for the payment and performance of any and all obligations, performances, indemnities, liabilities and undertakings. No single claim or cause of action with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall satisfy or release MGM MIRAGE from the Guaranteed Obligations, and this guaranty shall continue in full force and effect until completion of Operator’s obligations. Upon the satisfaction of all Guaranteed Obligations hereunder, Owner shall provide MGM MIRAGE with an acknowledgement of release and discharge.

(a) The guaranty set forth in this Section 21.5 is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future, including Guaranteed Obligations arising or accruing after bankruptcy of MGM MIRAGE. The liability of MGM MIRAGE under this Section 21.5 shall be direct and immediate and not conditional or contingent on the pursuit of any remedies against Manager or any other person or entity. If there is a failure in the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, Owner may enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder, in any order, without demand or notice of any kind, and without exercising any rights or remedies against Operator or any other person or entity, and all such rights, powers and remedies available to Owner shall be nonexclusive and cumulative of all other available rights, powers and remedies until all Guaranteed Obligations are satisfied. Guarantor waives and releases any right of subrogation against Operator or any other person or entity, and waives any rights to enforce any remedy which MGM MIRAGE may have against Manager. This Section 21.5 shall continue to be effective or shall automatically be revived, reinstated, and restored, as the case may be, if at any time any payment or performance of any Guaranteed Obligations is avoided, rescinded or rendered ineffective or must otherwise be paid, returned or restored by Owner or any other person pursuant to state or federal law, in connection with or as the result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of MGM MIRAGE or Operator, all as though such payment or performance had not occurred or been tendered or made, as the case may be. MGM

MIRAGE shall have no authority to revoke the guaranty pursuant to this Section 21.5, but if any such revocation shall be deemed to have occurred by operation of law or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 21.5 shall continue to apply notwithstanding such revocation.

(b) The obligations of MGM MIRAGE pursuant to the guaranty in this Section 21.5, are independent of the obligations of Manager or any other person. Owner may bring action against MGM MIRAGE without bringing action against Operator or any other person and otherwise independently of any other right, power or remedy (each, a “Remedy”) that may be available to Owner at any time. MGM MIRAGE waives any right to require Owner at any time to proceed against Operator or any other person, or otherwise enforce, proceed against or pursue any other Remedy in the Owner’s power.

(i) any present or future Legal Requirements, or orders affecting any Remedy of the Owner;

(ii) any discharge or release of any other guarantor or any impairment or suspension of any Remedy of Owner, whether resulting from any act or omission of the Owner or any other person or by operation of law or otherwise;

(iii) the lack of authority or any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Operator, any guarantor or any disability or other defense of Operator or any other guarantor;

(iv) any other action by Owner, whether authorized by this Section 21.5 or otherwise, or any omission by Owner or other failure of Owner to pursue, or any delay in pursuing, any other Remedy in Owner’s power;

(v) any defense or benefits that may be derived from any Legal Requirements of the State of California or any other jurisdiction, and all other suretyship defenses it would otherwise have under the Legal Requirements of the State of California or any other jurisdiction;

(vi) all benefits of any statute of limitations affecting MGM MIRAGE’s liability under or the enforcement of the guaranty in this Section 21.5;

(vii) all setoffs and counterclaims;

(viii) promptness, diligence, presentment, demand for performance and protest;

(ix) notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor,

(x) the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation or any other right or remedy of MGM MIRAGE against Manager; or

(xi) any modification of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(d) MGM MIRAGE hereby waives all benefits that might otherwise be available to MGM MIRAGE under California Civil Code Sections 2787 through 2855, inclusive, and 3433, among other provisions of like effect.

(e) MGM MIRAGE hereby acknowledges that (A) the obligations undertaken by MGM MIRAGE pursuant to the guaranty in this Section 21.5 are complex in nature; and (B) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter; and (C) as part of Owner’s consideration for entering into the Agreement, Owner has specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by MGM MIRAGE of all such defenses; and (D) MGM MIRAGE has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all of the above, MGM MIRAGE does hereby represent and confirm to the Owner that MGM MIRAGE is fully informed regarding, and that MGM MIRAGE does thoroughly understand: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses; and (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise; and (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon MGM MIRAGE; and (iv) the legal consequences to MGM MIRAGE of waiving such defenses. MGM MIRAGE acknowledges that MGM MIRAGE makes the guaranty in this Section 21.5 with the intent that such guaranty and all of the informed waivers herein shall each and all be fully enforceable by the Owner, and that the Owner is induced to enter into the Agreement in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.

(f) Payment of Expenses. In the event that MGM MIRAGE should breach or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Agreement, MGM MIRAGE shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days of demand by Owner, pay Owner all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by Owner in the enforcement hereof. In the event MGM MIRAGE fails to pay any such amounts to Owner in the manner and timeframe set forth in this Section 21.5.1(f), such amounts shall accrue interest from and after such payments were due and owing to Owner at the rate of interest set forth in Section 6.5. The covenants contained in this Section 21.5 shall survive the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(g) Modifications. MGM MIRAGE waives any right to object to any renewal, extension, increase, modification, alteration or rearrangement of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of Owner, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of Owner hereunder shall be in addition to all other rights provided by law. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand.

(h) Material Inducement. MGM MIRAGE and Owner acknowledge and agree that this guaranty constitutes a material and continuing inducement of the Owner to

enter into this Agreement and the Concurrent Agreements. MGM MIRAGE and Owner further agree that the provisions of this Section 21.5 are subject to the other rights and remedies of Owner and Operator pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

DISPUTES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLVED THROUGH EXECUTIVE NEGOTIATIONS PURSUANT TO SECTION 21.19.2 OF THIS AGREEMENT OR MEDIATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 21.19.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED BY A REFEREE PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 638 ET SEQ. IN EFFECT AS OF THE DATE HEREOF. THE VENUE OF ANY PROCEEDING HEREUNDER SHALL BE IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (UNLESS CHANGED BY THE WRITTEN AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES).

THEREAFTER THE PARTIES SHALL USE THEIR BEST EFFORTS TO AGREE UPON THE SELECTION OF A REFEREE. IF THE PARTIES ARE UNABLE TO AGREE UPON A REFEREE WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS AFTER A WRITTEN REQUEST TO DO SO BY ANY PARTY, THEN ANY PARTY MAY PETITION THE PRESIDING JUDGE OF THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT TO APPOINT A REFEREE. THE PRESIDING JUDGE SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO ASSIGN SAID REQUEST TO SUCH JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR COURT AS THE PRESIDING JUDGE DEEMS APPROPRIATE. FOR THE GUIDANCE OF THE JUDGE MAKING THE APPOINTMENT OF SAID REFEREE, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PERSON SO APPOINTED SHALL BE A RETIRED JUDGE.

THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, SECTIONS 640, 641, 642, 643, 644, 645 AND 645.1, SHALL BE APPLICABLE TO DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY A REFEREE HEREUNDER. IN AN EFFORT TO CLARIFY AND AMPLIFY THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTIONS 644 AND 645, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE REFEREE SHALL DECIDE THE DISPUTE SUBMITTED BY THE PARTIES FOR DECISION IN THE SAME MANNER AS REQUIRED FOR A TRIAL BY COURT AS SET FORTH IN CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, SECTIONS 631.8 AND 632, AND CALIFORNIA RULES OF COURT, RULE 3.1590. THE REFEREE SHALL TRY AND DECIDE THE DISPUTE ACCORDING TO AND BASED ON ALL OF THE SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL STATUTORY AND DECISIONAL LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, UNLESS THE PARTIES STIPULATE TO THE CONTRARY. WHEN THE REFEREE HAS DECIDED THE DISPUTE, THE REFEREE SHALL ALSO CAUSE THE PREPARATION OF A JUDGMENT BASED ON SAID DECISION. THE JUDGMENT TO BE ENTERED BY THE SUPERIOR COURT, BASED UPON THE DECISION OF THE REFEREE, SHALL BE APPEALABLE IN THE SAME MANNER AS IF THE JUDGE SIGNING THE JUDGMENT HAD TRIED THE CASE.

THE PARTIES SHALL DILIGENTLY COOPERATE WITH ONE ANOTHER AND THE PERSON(S) APPOINTED TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE, AND SHALL PERFORM SUCH ACTS AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO OBTAIN A PROMPT AND EXPEDITIOUS RESOLUTION OF THE DISPUTE.

Such limitation of liability is further subject to the agreement that in no event shall Owner, the DW Member or Operator have at any time any right, duty or obligation to contribute to or for the benefit of the Project any capital or other amounts unless specifically required by and authorized by the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement and any actions of Owner’s members taken in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement.

(a) Without in any way limiting the provisions of this Section 21.24.1, the Parties acknowledge that in the event there is a default or an alleged default by Manager or MGM MIRAGE under the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement, or if any Party has any Claim arising from the arrangements contemplated in this Agreement, no Party shall commence any lawsuit or otherwise seek to impose any liability whatsoever against Mr. Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Tracinda Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and any other corporation or entity controlled by Mr. Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx (other than MGM MIRAGE and its subsidiaries) or any principals of MGM MIRAGE or the Affiliates of such principals (the “MGM MIRAGE Restricted Affiliates”). The Parties hereby further agree that none of the MGM MIRAGE Restricted Affiliates shall have any liability whatsoever with respect to this Agreement. The Parties hereby further agree that they shall not permit or cause the Owner to assess a Claim or impose any liability against any MGM MIRAGE Restricted Affiliate, either collectively or individually, as to any matter or thing arising out of or relating to this Agreement. In addition,

the Parties agree that none of the MGM MIRAGE Restricted Affiliates, individually or collectively, are a Party to this Agreement or liable for any alleged breach or default of this Agreement by Operator or MGM MIRAGE. It is expressly understood and agreed that this provision shall have no force and effect with respect to any document or agreement as to which Mr. Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx or Tracinda Corporation is a party with the DW Member or Affiliates of the DW Member, except as set forth in such other agreement.

(b) Without in any way limiting the provisions of this Section 21.24.1, the Parties acknowledge that in the event there is a default or an alleged default by DW Member under the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement, or if any Party has any Claim arising from the arrangements contemplated in this Agreement, no Party shall commence any lawsuit or otherwise seek to impose any liability whatsoever against either the Government of Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, any corporation or entity controlled by the Government of Dubai or the United Arab Emirates (other than DW Member and its subsidiaries) or any principals of DW Member or the Affiliates of such principals (the “Dubai World Restricted Affiliates”).

21.25 Use of Affiliates by Manager. In fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement, Operator may, subject to the Joint Venture Agreement, use the services of one or more of its Affiliates. If any Affiliate of Operator performs services that Operator is required to provide under this Agreement, Operator shall be ultimately responsible to Owner for its Affiliate’s performance. In addition, the compensation and other terms and conditions of any such Affiliate transaction shall be no less favorable to Owner than those that Operator knows could reasonably be obtained at the time from an unrelated party providing comparable goods or services, and it is expressly understood and agreed that Owner shall not enter into any contracts with an Affiliate of Operator other than at such Affiliate’s cost. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Owner provides reasonable proof to Operator that the cost of a third party’s services is less than the cost charged by Operator’s Affiliate for the same or comparable service to be provided by such Affiliate, Owner shall be entitled to engage such third party in lieu of Operator’s Affiliate.

21.26 Publicity. Owner and Operator shall coordinate with one another on all press releases relating to those matters material to the operation and management of the Condo-Hotel.

21.27 Waivers. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by any Party to or of any breach or default by the other Party in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be a consent to or waiver of any other breach or default in the performance by such other Party of the same or any other obligations of such other Party under this Agreement. Failure on the part of either Party to complain of any act or failure to act of the other Party or to declare the other Party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its rights under this Agreement. No consent or waiver by Owner to or of any breach or default by Manager in the performance of its

obligations under this Agreement shall be effective unless such consent to or waiver of any such breach or default has been given in writing by DW Member.

21.28 Other Agreements. Except to the extent as may now or hereafter be specifically provided, nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to modify any other agreement between Owner and Operator with respect to the Project or any other property executed and delivered contemporaneously with this Agreement (the “Concurrent Agreements”). This Agreement contains the entire agreement between Owner and Operator regarding the management of the Condo-Hotel and Owner’s and Operator’s rights, duties and obligations related thereto and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements, understandings, representations and covenants, other than the Concurrent Agreements and the Joint Venture Agreement.

21.29 Periods of Time. Whenever any determination is to be made or action is to be taken on a date specified in this Agreement, if such date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then that date will be extended to the next day which is a Business Day.

21.30 Attorney’s Fees and Other Costs. The Parties to this Agreement will bear their own attorneys’ fees in relation to negotiating and drafting this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of Section 21.19 of this Agreement, if Owner or Operator engages in litigation to construe, interpret or enforce this Agreement, the prevailing Party will have the right to indemnity by the non-prevailing Party for an amount equal to the prevailing Party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and expenses arising therefrom.

21.31 Electronic Signatures. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile or by electronic mail shall be valid and effective to bind the Party so signing. Each Party agrees to promptly deliver an execution original to this Agreement with its actual signature to the other Party, but a failure to do so shall not affect the enforceability of this Agreement, it being expressly agreed that each Party to this Agreement shall be bound by its own telecopied or scanned signature and shall accept the telecopied or scanned signature of the other Party to this Agreement.

Subject to the fiduciary duties owed by Manager to Owner pursuant to this Agreement and the Joint Venture Agreement, in carrying out its duties and obligations hereunder, the relationship of Operator and any of its Affiliates providing the services to Owner will be that of an agent. In every instance where Operator executes any agreement or document on behalf of Owner (pursuant to its rights set forth in this Agreement), Operator shall do so in its capacity as an agent of Owner and shall make such designation evident in any such agreement.

21.33 Compliance with Securities Laws.

21.33.1 Owner hereby agrees that, in connection with its marketing and sale of the Residential Units, it shall comply with the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any state “blue sky laws” and/or any other laws and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal or state agency regulating the sale, registration and/or other handling of securities (collectively, the “Federal and State

Securities Laws”) so as to avoid classifying the sale of a Residential Unit as a security. In addition, it is the intent of the Parties that in no event shall the Unit Owner’s participation in, or any aspect of, the Rental Program constitute a security or violate any Federal and State Securities Laws and to ensure that the Rental Program and the Rental Program Agreement are in compliance with all other applicable laws, regulations, terms and conditions imposed by any court or regulatory, administrative and/or other agency of the federal government of the United States of America, the State of Nevada or any other state located within the United States of America. Should Operator become aware of any non-compliance with Federal State and Securities Laws or any other applicable Legal Requirements, Operator shall be obligated to immediately notify Owner of such non-compliance.

21.33.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Operator acknowledges that pursuant to the Federal and State Securities Laws, Unit Owners must have the right and option to use a third party rental agent for the rental of their Residential Units and, as a result, any Unit Owner may rent its Residential Unit with a third party rental agent.

21.34 Notices.
