Section 1.1 Third Party Warranties/Liquidated Damages.
1.1.1 Subject to the last sentence of this Section 1.1.1, the Owners acknowledge and agree
that all Third Party Warranties shall, to the extent separately enforceable by a particular Owner
with respect to improvements within its Lot, belong to such Owner and shall be enforceable by that
Owner. To the extent that a particular Third Party Warranty pertains to improvements in more than
one Lot, and cannot be separately assigned, the Owner possessing rights to enforce such Third Party
Warranty (the “Third Party Warranty Owner”) shall take such steps as any other Owner whose
property is benefited by such Third Party Warranty (a “Requesting Warranty Owner”) from
time to time reasonably may request in order to permit the Requesting Warranty Owner to receive the
benefits thereof, so long as the Requesting Warranty Owner reimburses the Third Party Warranty
Owner for all reasonable costs associated therewith (to the extent fairly allocable to the requests
made by the Requesting Warranty Owner) and otherwise takes steps reasonably requested by the Third
Party Warranty Owner to assure that the Third Party Warranty Owner shall not be exposed to
unreimbursed liability as a consequence of taking the steps requested by the Requesting Warranty
Owner.
1.1.2 All Liquidated Damages shall be apportioned between the applicable Owners in an
equitable manner. If such Owner shall be unable to agree on the equitable apportionment of any
Liquidated Damages, such Owners shall engage an Independent Expert to determine such apportionment
pursuant to the provisions of Section 14.16.

1.4.2 Within ninety (90) days following the completion of construction of the Palazzo, H/C II
Owner shall obtain an as-built “ALTA” survey confirming the lot lines for the H/C II Space and the
Mall II Space. Upon receipt of such survey, H/C II Owner and Mall II Owner shall, as appropriate,
either (i) elect, if said survey shows no actual encroachments, to terminate this Section 1.4 with
respect to the H/C II Encroachment and the Mall II Encroachment and the corresponding Phase II
Encroachment Easements by joint written notice to the Parties, (ii) as necessary, modify the legal
descriptions of the H/C II Space and the Mall II Space in order to reflect the correct lot lines

terminate this Section 1.4 with respect to the H/C II Encroachment and the Mall II Encroachment and
the corresponding Phase II Encroachment Easements by joint written notice to the Parties or
(iii) continue to keep in effect, and modify as appropriate, the applicable Phase II Encroachments
and the corresponding Phase II Encroachment Easements; provided, that in the event such survey
shows an encroachment, either H/C II Owner or Mall II Owner may elect to proceed pursuant to
clause (ii) above, which election shall be binding on the other. In the event H/C II Owner and
Mall II Owner
elect (or is deemed to elect) to terminate this Section 1.4 with respect to the H/C II
Encroachment and the Mall II Encroachment and the corresponding Phase II Encroachment Easements
pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence,
12
promptly after this Section 1.4 has
been so partially terminated, the Parties hereto shall execute and deliver to each other, and
record in the Recorder’s Office, an amendment to this Agreement reflecting such partial termination
of the Phase II Encroachment Easements and the other rights, interests, agreements and obligations
created or imposed by or under this Section 1.4.
1.4.3 Palazzo Condo and Mall II Owner acknowledge and confirm that the legal descriptions of
the Mall II Space and Residential Portion may change in accordance with and pursuant to the Third
Lease Amendment. In the event of such change or in the event it is determined no such change is to
be made, the Residential Portion Encroachments and corresponding Phase II Encroachment Easements
shall be deemed appropriately modified or terminated, as applicable, and (a) if terminated, the
Parties hereto shall execute and deliver to each other, and record in the Recorder’s Office, an
amendment to this Agreement reflecting such termination and (b) if modified, the Parties hereto
shall execute and deliver to each other, and record in the Recorder’s Office, an amendment to this
Agreement specifying the size and location of the Residential Portion Encroachments and the
corresponding Phase II Encroachment Easements.

property more particularly described on Exhibit K attached hereto and made a part hereof
(the “HVAC Space”), together with any buildings and improvements constructed thereon more
particularly described on Exhibit K for the Sempra Term to be
19
used exclusively for the
operation, maintenance and repair by Sempra of the HVAC Plant and the HVAC Facilities;
provided, however, that:
2.2.1.1 H/C I Owner shall have the right to relocate the HVAC Plant, subject to the
requirement that, without a Serviced Owner’s consent, the relocation shall not interfere with or
affect the heating, ventilating and air conditioning service required to be provided to such
Serviced Owner pursuant to its ESA (except to a de minimis extent) or result in any additional cost
or expense to such Serviced Owner; and
2.2.1.2 During the Sempra Term, Sempra shall operate, maintain, repair and restore the HVAC
Plant in accordance with the provisions of the Initial ESAs. From and after the expiration of the
Sempra Term, the Substitute HVAC Operator shall (i) operate, maintain, repair and restore the HVAC
Plant and the HVAC Facilities, and (ii) to the extent not covered pursuant to the property damage
insurance required to be carried in accordance with the provisions of Article 10, shall procure
replacement cost property damage insurance covering the HVAC Plant and the HVAC Facilities and any
other insurance equivalent to that which Sempra was required to maintain under the Initial ESAs.
2.2.2 Intentionally Omitted.
2.2.3 Extension/Termination of HVAC Operator.
2.2.3.1 Extension/Termination on Scheduled Termination Date Prior to Material Amortization
Date. Prior to any Scheduled Termination Date prior to the Material Amortization Date, H/C I
Owner, H/C II Owner and SECC Owner shall jointly determine, after good-faith consultation with the
other Serviced Owners, whether the Serviced Owners that are parties to Qualifying ESAs (the
“Relevant Serviced Owners”)
20
should (a) extend the Qualifying ESAs with the then-existing
HVAC Operator or (b) terminate the Qualifying ESAs in accordance with their terms (i.e., in
accordance with either clause (i) or clause (iii) of Section 2.5(a) of each Qualifying ESA) and
enter into new ESAs with a Substitute HVAC Operator; provided, however, that if
such new ESAs would be reasonably likely to result in Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner making payments
to the Substitute HVAC Operator or H/C I Owner in excess of the sum of (x) the payments that would
be owed by Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as applicable, to H/C I Owner pursuant to clause (b) of
the first sentence of Section 2.2.9 or the proviso clause of the first sentence of Section 2.2.10,
as applicable, if the Qualifying ESAs were not terminated and (y) the payments that would be owed
by Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as applicable, to the then-existing HVAC Operator or H/C I Owner
due to Mall I Owner’s or Mall II Owner’s, as applicable, default under its Qualifying ESA not
resulting from a default by H/C I Owner of its obligations under said Section 2.2.9 or
Section 2.2.10, as applicable, if the Qualifying ESAs were not terminated or due to ESA Amendments
executed on or after the date hereof that were initiated by Mall I Owner’s or Mall II Owner’s, as
applicable, desire to enter into an ESA Amendment, H/C I Owner and SECC Owner shall not so
determine to terminate the Qualifying ESAs unless either (1) Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as
applicable, consents to such determination or (2) H/C I Owner agrees to be responsible for such
excess. If H/C I Owner, H/C II Owner and SECC Owner do not jointly notify the other Serviced
Owners of their determination to extend or terminate the then-existing Qualifying ESAs as of two
(2) Business Days prior to the last day that the Relevant Serviced Owners have the right, under the
Qualifying ESAs, to elect to extend the Qualifying ESAs, or if, pursuant to the preceding sentence,
they do not have the right
21
to determine to terminate the then-existing ESAs, then they shall be
deemed to have determined pursuant to the preceding sentence that each Relevant Serviced Owner
should extend its Qualified ESA with the then-existing HVAC Operator. If H/C I Owner, H/C II Owner
and SECC Owner determine, or are deemed to have determined, that the Qualifying ESAs should be
extended in accordance with their terms, then each Relevant Serviced Owner shall be obligated to
extend its Qualifying ESA (and the Scheduled Termination Date applying thereunder) in accordance
with Section 2.5 of such Qualifying ESA. Conversely, if H/C I Owner, H/C II Owner and SECC Owner
determine that the Relevant Serviced Owners should terminate the Qualifying ESAs in accordance with
their terms and enter into new ESAs with a Substitute HVAC Operator, then:
2.2.3.1.1 Each Qualifying ESA with the existing HVAC Operator shall terminate as of the
Scheduled Termination Date set forth therein. Unless otherwise agreed by each of the Serviced
Owners:
2.2.3.1.1.1 (i) each Relevant Serviced Owner shall be responsible for payment of any
termination payment due to the existing HVAC Operator under such Owner’s Qualifying ESA
(i.e., the payment
due under clause (iii) of Section 2.5(a) of each Qualifying ESA, if applicable), (ii)
Mall II Owner shall reimburse H/C I Owner for a portion of H/C I Owner’s termination
payment, with such portion being an amount equal to seventy-three and ninety-five
hundredths percent (73.95%) of Mall I Owner’s termination payment, and (iii) each Serviced
Owner shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the other Serviced Owners against
any losses, claims, actions, liabilities, costs or
22
expenses (including attorneys’ fees)
arising out of any failure to comply with this Section 2.2.3.1.1.1; and
2.2.3.1.1.2 H/C I Owner shall succeed to the ownership of all of the HVAC Facilities,
except for (a) those HVAC Facilities already owned by another Serviced Owner and (b) any
other HVAC Facilities installed for the benefit of a particular Serviced Owner alone,
ownership of which shall be transferred to the particular Serviced Owner benefited.
2.2.3.1.2 Each Relevant Serviced Owner shall enter into a new ESA with a Substitute HVAC
Operator selected by H/C I Owner, H/C II Owner and SECC Owner after good-faith consultation with
the other Serviced Owners, provided that any Substitute HVAC Operator must, in H/C I Owner’s,
H/C II Owner’s and SECC Owner’s good-faith judgment, be capable of providing substantially the
same quality of service to all Serviced Owners as the HVAC Operator being replaced. So long as the
proviso clause of the preceding sentence is complied with, the Substitute HVAC Operator selected by
H/C I Owner, H/C II Owner and SECC Owner may be H/C I Owner itself. The new ESA shall be
substantially in the form of the Qualifying ESA which the Serviced Owner had with the prior HVAC
Operator except that:
2.2.3.1.2.1 The required periodic payments to be made by each Relevant Serviced Owner
shall be calculated so as to cover only the incremental expense of procuring the energy
services and otherwise shall be equitably allocated among the Serviced Owners taking into
account, inter alia, each Serviced Owner’s HVAC Plant Percentage (and
provided that if the
23
Serviced Owners cannot agree on such equitable allocation, the matter
shall be resolved by the Independent Expert); and
2.2.3.1.2.2 Each Owner shall grant appropriate access and other rights to the
Substitute HVAC Operator so as to permit the Substitute HVAC Operator to utilize the
utility easements granted pursuant to the further provisions of this Agreement and
otherwise provide heating, ventilating and air conditioning service to the Serviced Owners
in accordance with the provisions of their respective ESAs.
2.2.3.1.3 H/C I Owner shall provide appropriate and commercially reasonable possessory and use
rights to permit the Substitute HVAC Operator to use and occupy the HVAC Space together with any
buildings and improvements constructed thereon.
2.2.3.2 Termination in the Event of “Major Default.” As more particularly set forth
in the Qualifying ESAs, each Relevant Serviced Owner has the right to terminate its Qualifying ESA
in the event of certain HVAC Operator defaults (and subject to certain notice and cure periods).
In the event of any such termination, the terminating Serviced Owner shall provide prior written
notice of such termination to each
of the other Serviced Owners. The Owners further agree as follows with respect to any such
termination:
2.2.3.2.1 Within fifteen (15) days after the other Serviced Owners’ receipt of any such
termination notice from a terminating Serviced Owner (or, if the termination is contested by the
HVAC Operator, from the date that the other Serviced Owners receive confirmation that any such
contest has been resolved and
24
that the termination shall be effective as of a date stated (the
“Material Default Termination Date”)), the Serviced Owners shall confer in good-faith to
agree on a Substitute HVAC Operator reasonably acceptable to each of the Serviced Owners. If the
Serviced Owners shall be unable to agree on a Substitute HVAC Operator within thirty (30) days,
then H/C I Owner and SECC Owner shall jointly select the Substitute HVAC Operator in accordance
with the preceding Section 2.2.3.1.2, which Substitute HVAC Operator shall be responsible for
providing heating, ventilating and air conditioning service that is comparable in all material
respects to the service required to be provided by the existing HVAC Operator under the existing
ESAs. Any increase in the cost of providing such level of service in excess of the cost of
providing such level of service by the existing HVAC Operator shall (subject to Section 2.2.10) be
borne by the Serviced Owner(s) initially electing to terminate the existing HVAC Operator
pro rata based upon their respective Serviced Owner’s HVAC Plant Percentages.
2.2.3.2.2 Effective upon the Material Default Termination Date, each of the Qualifying ESAs
shall terminate. Each Relevant Serviced Owner shall be responsible for payment of any termination
payments due to the terminated HVAC Operator under its ESA, Mall II Owner shall reimburse H/C I
Owner for a portion
of H/C I Owner’s termination payment, with such portion being an amount equal to seventy-three
and ninety-five hundredths percent (73.95%) of Mall I Owner’s termination payment, and each
Serviced Owner shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the other Serviced Owners against
any losses, claims, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising out
of any failure to comply with this Section 2.2.3.2.2.
25
2.2.3.2.3 Effective upon the Material Default Termination Date, each of the Relevant Serviced
Owners shall enter into a new ESA with the Substitute HVAC Operator selected in accordance with
this Section 2.2.3.2 substantially in the form of its Qualifying ESA with the prior HVAC Operator,
except that:
2.2.3.2.3.1 The required periodic payments to be made by each Relevant Serviced Owner
shall be calculated so as to cover only the incremental expense of procuring the energy
services and otherwise shall be equitably allocated among the Relevant Serviced Owners
taking into account, inter alia, each Serviced Owner’s HVAC Plant
Percentage (and provided that if the Serviced Owners cannot agree on such equitable
allocation, the matter shall be resolved by the Independent Expert); and
2.2.3.2.3.2 Each Owner shall grant appropriate access and other rights to the
Substitute HVAC Operator so as to permit the Substitute HVAC Operator to utilize the
utility easements granted pursuant to the further provisions of this Agreement and
otherwise provide heating, ventilating and air conditioning service to the Serviced Owners
in accordance with the provisions of the ESAs.
2.2.3.2.4 If the ESA with Sempra or any Substitute HVAC Operator is terminated and the
Relevant Serviced Owners enter into new ESAs with a Substitute HVAC Operator (unless the Substitute
HVAC Operator is H/C I Owner) in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.2.3, then H/C I Owner
shall provide appropriate and commercially reasonable possessory and use rights to permit the
Substitute HVAC Operator to use and occupy the HVAC Space together with any buildings and
26
improvements constructed thereon so long as such Substitute HVAC Operator (a) enters into
agreements reasonably satisfactory to H/C I Owner indemnifying H/C I Owner against all losses,
claims, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses (including attorney’s fees) arising out of the
actions or inactions of such Substitute HVAC Operator, and (b) obtains insurance coverage
substantially similar to that required to be obtained by Sempra under the Initial ESAs.
2.2.4 Extension/Termination on or after the Material Amortization Date. On or before
the date which shall be eighteen (18) months prior to the Material Amortization Date, H/C I Owner
shall submit in writing to the other Serviced Owners a proposed plan (a “Replacement HVAC Plant
Plan”) for the refurbishment or replacement of the HVAC Plant. The Replacement HVAC Plant Plan
shall provide for the furnishing of heating, ventilating and air conditioning services for a
commercially reasonable time period from and after the Material Amortization Date which are at
least equivalent in all material respects (including, without limitation, quantity and quality) to
those services required to be provided by Sempra or any Substitute HVAC Operator, as applicable,
immediately prior to such date on financing and payment terms reasonably acceptable to the Serviced
Owners, the cost of which each Serviced Owner shall share in proportion to
its HVAC Plant Percentage. The Replacement HVAC Plant Plan must be approved by the other
Serviced Owners, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; if the parties cannot agree on
whether such approval is being properly withheld (taking into account the next sentence), the
dispute shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the provisions hereof. In all events,
a Serviced Owner shall have the right to withhold its approval to a
27
proposed Replacement HVAC Plant
Plan if the implementation of the proposed Replacement HVAC Plant Plan will not permit such
Serviced Owner to operate its business for its Permitted Use or would unfairly burden such Owner as
compared to the other Owners or unfairly benefit any other Owner. The Serviced Owners shall
commence the implementation of such Replacement HVAC Plant Plan within thirty (30) days of approval
thereof by the Serviced Owners other than H/C I Owner.
2.2.5 Termination Other than by an Owner. If the Qualifying ESAs shall terminate for
any reason other than those described in Sections 2.2.3 or 2.2.4, as expeditiously as possible
after the termination of the Qualifying ESAs, H/C I Owner shall submit in writing to the other
Serviced Owners a proposed Replacement HVAC Plant Plan, and all of the provisions of Section 2.2.4
shall apply with respect hereto.
2.2.6 Termination of HVAC Ground Lease. H/C I Owner agrees for the benefit of each of
the other Serviced Owners that it shall not terminate the HVAC Ground Lease or any other possessory
interest granted to the HVAC Operator in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2 other
than in connection with an election to terminate all of the Qualifying ESAs in accordance with the
provisions hereof.
2.2.7 Amendment of ESAs. No Relevant Serviced Owner shall enter into any amendment,
modification, restatement, substitution or replacement (each, a
“ESA Amendment”) of its ESA with the HVAC Operator which ESA Amendment could reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the rights and/or obligations of any other Serviced
Owner.
2.2.8 Obligations of Substitute HVAC Operator. The Substitute HVAC Operator shall
cause the maintenance, repair and restoration of the HVAC Plant; provided, however,
that any such HVAC Operator that is an Owner can satisfy its obligations under
28
this Section 2.2.8
by (i) engaging an appropriately experienced and competent third party operator to operate,
maintain, repair and restore the HVAC Plant and (ii) using commercially reasonable efforts to
enforce such operator’s obligations so to operate, maintain, repair and restore (and replacing such
operator with another appropriately experienced and competent third party operator if any such
operator fails to perform its obligations) in which event such HVAC Operator shall not be liable to
any Owner for consequential damages arising out of such third party’s repair, maintenance and/or
restoration of the HVAC Plant except to the extent such damages result from such HVAC Operator’s
negligence or willful misconduct.
2.2.9 Payments Under Mall I Owner’s ESA. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.2, during the Sempra Term, (a) H/C I Owner shall be responsible for
making all payments under Sections 4.1 and 4.2, and clauses (i)-(iii) of Section 4.5, of Mall I
Owner’s ESA, excluding payments due to Mall I Owner’s default thereunder not resulting from a
default by H/C I Owner of its obligations under this Section 2.2.9 and also excluding payments due
under or pursuant to ESA Amendments executed on or after the date hereof that were initiated by
Mall I Owner’s desire to enter into an ESA Amendment; (b) Mall I Owner shall be obligated to make
certain payments to
H/C I Owner on account of the HVAC Plant and HVAC Facilities, pursuant to and as set forth in
more detail in Section 5.1.3 hereof and Schedule II attached hereto and made a part hereof and
(c) H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner shall each use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Sempra to
send all invoices for amounts covered by clause (a) of this sentence, or copies thereof, to H/C I
Owner. In the event that, notwithstanding such
29
efforts, Sempra sends any such invoices to Mall I
Owner only, Mall I Owner shall promptly deliver them to H/C I Owner.
2.2.10 Extension of HVAC Service to Mall II Owner. Notwithstanding any of the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2, the parties acknowledge and agree that H/C I Owner’s ESA
has been amended to provide for the extension of HVAC service to H/C II Owner, Mall II Owner and
Residential Portion Owner (and therefore each of H/C II Owner, Mall II Owner and Residential
Portion Owner will not be party to an ESA) and H/C I Owner shall be responsible for making all
payments under its ESA; provided that Mall II Owner shall be obligated to make certain payments to
H/C I Owner on account of the HVAC Plant and HVAC Facilities, pursuant to and as set forth in more
detail in Section 5.1.3 hereof and Schedule II attached hereto and made a part hereof. H/C I Owner
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently enforce, for the benefit of H/C II Owner,

required under H/C I Owner’s ESA to H/C II Owner, Mall II Owner and Residential Portion Owner.

its sole cost and expense provided that such relocation: (1)
does not cause any interruption in the utilization of the utility easement by the Owner
35
of the
dominant tenement for the affected easement (except de minimis interruptions, as to degree or time,
which shall be scheduled by agreement with the Owner of the dominant tenement for the affected
easement); (2) does not diminish the capacity or efficiency of such utility easement (excepting de
minimis effects); and (3) will not make it more difficult or more expensive for the Owner of the
dominant tenement with respect to the utility easement to use, maintain, repair, or replace the

as practicable)). The Party conducting the same shall, in performing any such work, use
36
commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the Utility Equipment of the other

4.2.3 Venetian Theme. For so long as the Phase I Hotel/Casino is decorated in
accordance with a “Venetian” theme, Mall I Owner covenants and agrees to operate and maintain the

existence as of May 17, 2004 (such theme, including the components thereof described in the next
sentence and in the last sentence of
this paragraph, the “Venetian Theme”). In furtherance of, but without limiting, the
foregoing, Mall I Owner shall maintain, and where applicable shall cause its Tenants to maintain,
in a First-class condition the high-end finish and Renaissance-Venice streetscape
70
motif of the
Phase I Mall in existence as of May 17, 2004, characterized by, among other things, a painted
vaulted ceiling, cobblestone floor tiling, “piazza” style retail store groupings, a “St. Marks
Square,” and arched bridges over a winding Venetian-themed indoor water canal running the length of

be consistent with the Venetian Theme. Additionally, Mall I Owner acknowledges and confirms that
an important component of the Venetian Theme is the currently-existing pantomimes, singing
gondoliers and other street performers (the “Venetian Performers”), and therefore, Mall I
Owner agrees to continue to employ Venetian Performers in numbers and on a schedule similar or
greater to that employed by Mall I Owner as of May 17, 2004, as described in Exhibit H
attached hereto and made a part hereof. No neon signs (other than neon signs in the “food court”
as of the date hereof) shall be visible from any of the Phase I Mall’s public or common areas. The

4.2.4 Grand Canal Shoppes Name; Right to Use Venetian Logo.
4.2.4.1 Mall I Owner agrees that, subject to the further provisions of this Section 4.2.4.1,
the Phase I Mall shall continuously and exclusively operate under the names “Grand Canal Shoppes”,
“Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian”, “Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Las Vegas” and “Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino”. Mall I Owner may not use any of
such names to identify any other retail facility aside from the Phase I Mall. The uses of such
names are subject to the following licenses and restrictions:
71
4.2.4.1.1 H/C I Owner hereby grants to Mall I Owner and its Affiliates a non-exclusive,
non-transferable (except as hereinafter provided), irrevocable, perpetual and royalty-free
worldwide license, without charge or fee, to use and display the names “The Venetian Resort Hotel
Casino”, “The Venetian Las Vegas” and “The Venetian” (each, a “Venetian Name”) and the logo
shown on Exhibit I-1 attached hereto and made a part hereof (as the same may be changed as
described below) (the “Venetian Logo”); provided, however, that (1) all
uses of any Venetian Name and the Venetian Logo must be consistent with a First-class Las Vegas
Boulevard-style hotel casino; (2) all uses of any Venetian Name must either be (y) as part of the
Venetian Logo or (z) consistent with the style guidelines described in Exhibit R-1 attached
hereto and made a part hereof, as the same may be amended from time to time by Mall I Owner and H/C
I Owner; (3) any use of any Venetian Name and Venetian Logo on, or as a part of, advertising,
marketing or promotional materials or products, goods and items for sale shall be a proper use of
such license only if (x) the applicable material, product, good or item also includes a reference
to the Grand Canal Shoppes name or a Tenant or other Phase I Mall occupant, or a business being
operated at the Phase I Mall (so that, for example, a Tenant in the Phase I Mall can sell (pursuant
to the sublicense described in the next paragraph) items that say “[Name of tenant] at The
Venetian” or “[Name of tenant] at the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian,” but cannot sell items
that say only “The Venetian” and (y) in the case of products, goods and items for sale, H/C I Owner
has given prior
written approval of such use; (4) any use of a Venetian Name in any advertising, marketing or
promotional material must be either in the same typeface as appears in the Venetian Logo, the
“Optifavrile” or “MrsEaves” typeface or the predominant typeface of such
72
material and (5) whenever
a Venetian Name is used, the first letter of each word comprising such name shall be capitalized.
No use of such license pursuant to clause (3) of the preceding sentence shall impose, or be deemed
to impose, any liability on H/C I Owner (or any affiliate thereof) with respect to the applicable
material, product, good or item. H/C I Owner reserves the right to replace, alter or modify the
Venetian Logo at any time in its sole discretion, but upon not less than thirty (30) days prior
written notice to Mall I Owner. Upon any such notification from H/C I Owner to Mall I Owner, Mall
I Owner shall, as of the effective date of the applicable change as set forth in such notice,
cease, and cause Mall I Occupants to cease, using the old Venetian Logo (but shall continue to have
the rights set forth herein with respect to the replacement, altered or modified Venetian Logo).
Notwithstanding any prior agreements between H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner to the contrary, as of
the date hereof the foregoing license represents the only rights of Mall I Owner to use the
Venetian Name and the Venetian Logo (and therefore any such prior agreements are hereby deemed
terminated and of no force and effect).
4.2.4.1.2 Mall I Owner may sublicense the above described license to Mall I Occupants,
provided that (1) such sublicense provides that the sublicense can only use the Venetian Names and
Venetian Logo within the scope of, and pursuant to, the above-described license, (2) Mall I Owner
shall be responsible and liable
for all breaches by any sublicensee of any such sublicense and (3) such sublicense gives H/C I
Owner the right to enforce its terms and restrictions.
4.2.4.1.3 If H/C I Owner shall determine that any advertising, marketing or promotional
materials used or planned to be used by Mall I
73
Owner or any of its sublicensees violate the terms
of the above-described license, Mall I Owner shall, immediately upon written notification from H/C
I Owner of such determination, cease (or cause the applicable sublicensee to immediately cease)
such advertising, marketing or promotion.
4.2.4.1.4 Mall I Owner acknowledges that subject to the license granted herein, H/C I Owner
owns all legal right, title and interest in and to the Venetian Names and the Venetian Logo. Mall
I Owner agrees that any and all uses of the Venetian Names and Venetian Logo, and any goodwill
resulting from such uses, shall inure solely to the benefit of H/C I Owner.
4.2.4.2 Mall I Owner, H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner hereby agree that:
4.2.4.2.1 Mall I Owner hereby grants to H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner and their Affiliates a
non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as hereinafter provided), irrevocable, perpetual and
royalty-free worldwide license, without charge or fee, to use and display the “Grand Canal Shoppes”
name (the “Grand Canal Shoppes Name”) and the logo shown on Exhibit U-1 attached
hereto and made a part hereof (as the same may be changed as described below) (the “Grand Canal
Shoppes Logo”); provided, however, that (x) no such use and display shall be
permitted in connection with any property located in the United States other than the Integrated
Resort
and (y) all uses of the Grand Canal Shoppes Name and the Grand Canal Shoppes Logo must be (1)
consistent with a First-class hotel and casino and related amenities and services and (2)
consistent with the style guidelines described in Exhibit R-1 attached hereto and made a
part hereof, as the same may be amended from time to time by Mall I Owner, H/C I
74
Owner and H/C II
Owner. Mall I Owner reserves the right to replace, alter or modify the Grand Canal Shoppes Logo
(but in no event, so long as the Phase I Hotel/Casino is operating under one of the Venetian Names,
shall Mall I Owner have the right to replace, alter or modify the Grand Canal Shoppes Name) at any
time in its sole discretion, but upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to H/C I
Owner and H/C II Owner. Upon any such notification from Mall I Owner to H/C I Owner and H/C II
Owner, H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner shall, as of the effective date of the applicable change as set
forth in such notice, cease using the old Grand Canal Shoppes Logo.
4.2.4.2.2 H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner acknowledge that subject to the license granted herein,
Mall I Owner owns all legal right, title and interest in and to the Grand Canal Shoppes Name and
the Grand Canal Shoppes Logo. H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner agree that any and all uses of the
Grand Canal Shoppes Name and Grand Canal Shoppes Logo, and any goodwill resulting from such uses,
shall inure solely to the benefit of Mall I Owner.

information), directories and locational diagrams and maps located within the Phase I Mall. H/C I
Owner shall include the location of and/or directions to the
Phase I Mall in all directional signage (including overhead directionals and backlit and
non-backlit directions), directories and locational diagrams and maps located within the Phase I
Hotel/Casino. At a minimum, H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner shall include directions to the Phase I

4.2.7.1 H/C I Owner shall have the right to prohibit any Tenant advertising at the Phase I
Mall or which mentions the Phase I Mall, the Venetian or the Palazzo which, in the reasonable
judgment of H/C I Owner, impairs the reputation of H/C I Owner or the Venetian or H/C II Owner or
the Palazzo.
76
4.2.7.2 H/C I Owner shall be a third-party beneficiary of the provisions described in the
foregoing paragraph (a) (and the applicable Leases shall so provide) and shall have the right to

Affiliate of H/C I Owner is directed not to involve itself in business with a Proposed Tenant by
any such authority, or if H/C I Owner shall in good faith determine, in H/C I Owner’s good-faith
judgment, that a Proposed Tenant, or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, designees
or representatives, or a partner, owner, member, or shareholder, or any lender or financial

activities, or (b) was or is involved in any relationship, either of which could or does jeopardize
H/C I Owner’s business, reputation or such licenses, or those of its Affiliates, or if any such
license is threatened to be, or is, denied, curtailed, suspended or revoked, then Mall I Owner, at

shall be a proper use of such license only if (x) the applicable material, product, good or item

business being operated at the Phase II Mall (so that, for example, a Tenant in the Phase II Mall
can sell (pursuant to the sublicense described in the next paragraph) items that say “[Name of

of Permitted Maintenance therein, and the other of the SECC or the Mall I Space is not open for
business to the public, then H/C I Owner need not during such Permitted Maintenance keep the public

public, but must keep such public entrances open to the employees, agents, contractors and
subcontractors of the Owner performing such Permitted Maintenance. In addition to the foregoing,

suppression systems located in such Tenant’s space), stairwells, elevators, escalators (if any) and
any other similar mechanical conveyancing devices or systems and (to the extent located outside of
the Mall I Space) electrical switchgear, transformers and all other electrical systems
(collectively, the “Venetian Building Shell and Core”). All of said maintenance and

permit H/C I Owner to perform its obligations with respect to such space, no fence, barricade or
other obstruction shall be placed, kept, permitted or maintained on the H/C I Pass-through Areas,
the H/C-Mall I Common Areas or the H/C I Limited Common Areas which will interfere with the

5.1.3.2 Each of Mall I Owner’s Share, Mall II Owner’s Share and SECC Owner’s Share shall be
subject to further adjustment from time to time during the Term to the extent equitable by
agreement of the Owners after consultation with the Mortgagees of the Owners; provided,
that if any such Mortgagee shall believe that such adjustment would (i) not be agreed to by
a Commercially Reasonable Owner or (ii) will cause a Material Adverse Effect, then the Owners and
their Mortgagees will negotiate in good faith until they agree on adjustments acceptable to all
such parties; if the parties shall not agree within thirty (30) days, the Owners and their
Mortgagees shall agree to an Independent Expert reasonably acceptable to all the Owners and their
Mortgagees who shall deliver to SECC Owner, Mall I Owner, Mall II Owner and each of their
respective Mortgagees (as well as the Mortgagees of H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner) a written
statement describing and certifying to an adjustment to Schedule II that (i) would be

Owner’s Common Area Charge Obligations”), (iii) Mall II Owner’s Share thereof (the amount of
such Mall II Owner’s Share being hereinafter referred to as “Mall II Owner’s Common Area Charge

H/C II Owner shall furnish to each of SECC Owner, Mall I Owner and Mall II Owner, and each of their
Mortgagees, a written statement (the “Operating Expense Statement”), showing in reasonable
detail by categories (i) the total Hotel/Casino/Mall/SECC Common Area Charges for such calendar
year, (ii) Mall I Owner’s Common Area Charge Obligations for such calendar year and payments, if

with copies of supporting invoices, receipts and such other data reasonably necessary for SECC
Owner, Mall I Owner and Mall II Owner to verify such charges (collectively, “Supporting
Documentation”). If SECC Owner’s, Mall I Owner’s or Mall II Owner’s aggregate actual payments
on account of Hotel/Casino/Mall/SECC Common Area Charges for any calendar year shall be less than
SECC Owner’s, Mall I Owner’s or Mall II Owner’s, as the case may be, actual Common Area Charge
Obligations for such calendar year, SECC Owner, Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as the case may be,
shall pay such deficiency within ten (10) days of receipt by such Party of the Operating Expense
Statement and Supporting Documentation from H/C I Owner and/or H/C II Owner, as the case may be.

Area Charge Obligations, Mall I Owner’s actual Common Area Charge Obligations or Mall II Owner’s
actual Common Area Charge Obligations, as the case may be, as indicated by the Operating Expense
Statement for such calendar year, then H/C I Owner and/or H/C II Owner, as appropriate, shall,
within ten (10) days of the preparation of the Operating Expense Statement, refund the amount of
such excess payment to SECC Owner, Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as the case may be, in cash.
H/C I Owner and H/C II Owner shall keep complete and accurate books and records, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, of the Hotel/Casino/Mall/SECC Common
Area Charges and shall retain those books and records at their corporate offices. For a period of
three (3) years after the end of each calendar year, and for so long thereafter as any dispute
exists with respect thereto, H/C I
103
Owner and H/C II Owner shall preserve all such books and records, including any payroll and
time records, vouchers, receipts, correspondence and memos pertaining to the Hotel/Casino/Mall/SECC
Common Area Charges for such calendar year. Each of SECC Owner, Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner may,
within three (3) years after the delivery of any Operating Expense Statement and Supporting
Documentation, examine, at such Owner’s expense (unless otherwise provided herein), H/C I Owner’s
and H/C II Owner’s books and records relating to the charges set forth on such Operating Expense
Statement. Such examination shall be conducted during ordinary business hours upon not less than
five (5) Business Days’ Notice, in a manner so as to reasonably minimize any interference with
H/C I Owner’s and H/C II Owner’s business. If such examination discloses that H/C I Owner or
H/C II Owner has overstated Mall I Owner’s actual Common Area Charge Obligations, Mall II Owner’s
actual Common Area Charge Obligations or SECC Owner’s actual Common Area Charge Obligations, as the
case may be, then H/C I Owner or H/C II Owner, as the case may be, shall promptly refund the
overpayment to Mall I Owner, Mall II Owner or SECC Owner, as the case may be, and if the
overpayment is more than three percent (3%) of the amount such Owner should have paid, H/C I Owner
or H/C II Owner, as the case may be, shall also pay the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs of such
Owner’s examination and interest on the overpayment at the Interest Rate from the date such Owner
overpaid H/C I Owner or H/C II Owner, as the case may be, until such Owner receives such refund.
5.1.3.6 With respect to Hotel/Casino/Mall/SECC Common Area Charges, any dispute between the
Owners shall be resolved by determination of the Independent Expert in accordance with
Section 14.16, which shall be the exclusive and
104
binding method for the resolution of any such dispute. Each of the Owners agrees to execute
and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the others any instruments that may be
required to effectuate or facilitate the provisions of this Agreement relating to the matters set
forth in this Section 5.1.3.

106
otherwise to the extent
of such lesser standard as may be reasonably adequate under the circumstances to service the

the foregoing, if either the SECC or the H/C I Space is not open to the public but is in the
process of having Permitted Maintenance therein, and the other of the SECC or the H/C I Space is

to perform its obligations with respect to such space, no fence, barricade or other obstruction
shall be placed, kept, permitted or maintained on the Mall I Pass-through Areas and the Mall I
Limited Common Areas which will interfere with the intended uses thereof. Mall I Owner, in
exercising its rights under this Section 5.1.6, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to

business at the same and (ii) the Phase I Hotel/Casino and H/C I Owner’s business at the same.
109
5.1.7 Alterations. H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner each agree for the benefit of the
other (except as otherwise expressly set forth herein) that from and after the date hereof:
5.1.7.1 H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner may each make (or allow any Tenant to make) Alterations
to the improvements from time to time located within or on their respective Lots in accordance with
the further provisions of this Article 5 and the provisions of Article 4 herein from time to time
during the Term.
5.1.7.2 H/C I Owner may from time to time as it deems appropriate in its absolute discretion,

Common Areas, (iii) the H/C I Limited Common Areas, (iv) the Mall I Limited Common Areas, (v) the
Electric Substation, (vi) the HVAC Plant, (vii) the Mall I H/C Exclusive Areas, (viii) the Phase I
Automobile Parking Area or (ix) the public entrances to and from such Owner’s property to the other
Owners’ properties, without in each instance obtaining the prior written consent thereto of (a) the
other Owner
110
(or, in the case of the Electric Substation or the HVAC Plant, all Owners), (b) the Mortgagee
of each of H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner, and (c) with respect to a Material Alteration affecting
the Electric Substation and/or the HVAC Plant, SECC Owner and its Mortgagees, all of which consents
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if a Commercially Reasonable Owner would
grant its consent and the same is not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Either Owner may
make (or allow any Tenant to make) any Alteration which singularly or together with related work is
not a Material Alteration without the other Owner’s or any Mortgagee’s consent in accordance with
the further provisions of this Article 5 and as is otherwise permitted by the terms of this
Agreement. Together with each request for approval of a Material Alteration, the requesting Owner
shall present to the non-requesting Owner and the Mortgagee of each of H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner
(and all other Owners and the Mortgagees of such other Owners with respect to a Material Alteration
affecting the Electric Substation and/or the HVAC Plant) for its approval plans and specifications
for such work prepared by an Architect. An Owner’s or any Mortgagee’s approval of any Material
Alteration shall not constitute any assumption of any responsibility or liability by such Owner or
Mortgagee for the accuracy or sufficiency of the applicable plans and specifications and the
requesting Owner shall be solely responsible for such items and shall be liable for any damage
resulting therefrom. The requesting Owner shall reimburse its Mortgagees, the non-requesting Owner
and its Mortgagee (and SECC Owner and the Mortgagee of SECC Owner with respect to a Material
Alteration affecting the Electric Substation and/or the HVAC Plant) upon receipt of invoices for
the non-requesting Owner’s and its Mortgagee’s actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection
with any review of any plans and
111
specifications in accordance with this Section 5.1.7.4, including architect’s and engineer’s
fees and costs. Upon reasonable prior notice and during mutually convenient hours, the
non-requesting Owner and/or the Mortgagee of each of H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner (and the SECC
Owner and the Mortgagee of SECC Owner with respect to a Material Alteration affecting the Electric
Substation and/or the HVAC Plant) may inspect Material Alterations from time to time in order to
assure itself that such work is being carried on in accordance with the requirements of this
Agreement, provided that such inspection does not unreasonably interfere with the
continuance and completion of the Material Alterations, and provided further that the
failure of an Owner or any Mortgagee to inspect such work (or, if such work is inspected, the
results or findings of such inspection) shall not in and of itself be considered a waiver of any
right accruing to such Owner or Mortgagee upon any failure of the requesting Owner to perform such
work in accordance with this Agreement. In undertaking any activities described in, and performing
its obligations under, this Article 5, each Owner shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize interference (including, without limitation, interference due to closure) with the
maintenance, use and operation of the Phase I Mall, the Phase I Hotel/Casino, and the SECC.
5.1.8 Alteration Requirements. H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner each covenants and agrees

therein will be made except in compliance with this Article 5, and hereby covenants that it will
comply with each and all of the following provisions:

(other than to a de minimis extent) with the use, occupancy, maintenance or operation of the Phase
I Base Building, the Phase I Hotel/Casino or the Phase I Mall or any of the businesses conducted
thereat.
5.1.8.2 Before any Alterations are begun, the Owner performing or causing such Alteration to
be performed shall obtain, at its own sole cost and expense, all licenses, permits, approvals and
authorizations in connection with any such Alterations required by any Governmental Authorities.
Upon any Owner’s request, the other Owner shall join in the application for such licenses, permits,
approvals and authorizations whenever such action is necessary, and the requesting Owner covenants
that the non-requesting Owner will not suffer, sustain or incur any cost, expense or liability by
reason thereof. All Material Alterations shall be made under the supervision of an Architect.
5.1.8.3 All Alterations shall be made in compliance and conformity with all applicable Legal
Requirements.
5.1.8.4 In making any Alteration, the Owner performing or causing such Alteration to be
performed shall not violate (a) the terms or conditions of any insurance policy affecting or

be performed shall cause each of its general contractors to obtain, prior to commencing any
Material Alteration, and to keep in force, for the benefit of Mall I Owner, H/C I Owner and each of
their Mortgagees until the applicable Material Alteration is completed:
5.1.9.1 Commercial general liability insurance for the project on an “occurrence” basis,
including coverage for premises/operations, products/completed operations, broad form property
damage, blanket contractual liability, independent contractor’s and personal injury, with no
exclusions for explosion, collapse and underground perils, with primary coverage limits of no less
than $1,000,000 for injuries or death to one or more persons or damage to property resulting from
any one occurrence and a $2,000,000 aggregate limit. Such policy shall be endorsed to list H/C I
Owner and Mall I Owner as additional insureds and include a waiver of subrogation endorsement. The

not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if a Commercially Reasonable Owner would grant
its consent and the same is not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Either Owner may make

present to the non-requesting Owner and the Mortgagee of each of H/C II Owner and Mall II Owner for

assure itself that such work is being carried on in accordance with the requirements of this
Agreement, provided that such inspection does not unreasonably interfere with the
continuance and completion of the Material Alterations, and provided further that the
failure of an Owner or any Mortgagee to inspect such work (or, if such work is inspected, the
results or findings of such inspection) shall not in and of itself be considered a waiver of any
right accruing to such Owner or Mortgagee upon any failure of the requesting Owner to perform such
work in accordance with this Agreement. In undertaking any activities described in, and performing
its obligations under, this Article 5, each Owner shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize interference (including, without limitation, interference due to closure) with the
maintenance, use and operation of the Phase II Mall and the Phase II Hotel/Casino.

granted will either (i) result in any Owner not being afforded its Minimum Parking Standards or
(ii) otherwise adversely affect the conduct of another Owner’s business in accordance with the
terms hereof (except to a de minimis extent), unless such Owner first consents to such grant.

Such coverages shall be on a per occurrence basis and over and above coverage provided by the
policies described in Section 10.1.2.1, Section 10.1.2.2 and (with respect to stop gap or employer
liability insurance only) Section 10.1.2.3 above.
10.1.2.4.1 Impairment of Limits. If the policy or policies provided under
Section 10.1.2 contain(s) aggregate limits applying to operations other than operations of the
applicable Owner at the applicable property that is part of the Integrated Resort, and such limits
are diminished below $120,000,000 by any incident, occurrence, claim, settlement or judgment
against such other operations which has caused the insurer to establish a reserve, the applicable
Owner, within thirty (30) days after knowledge of such event, shall purchase an additional
umbrella/excess liability insurance policy satisfying the requirements of Section 10.1.2.4 in an
amount approved by the applicable Mortgagee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or
151
delayed; provided a Commercially Reasonable Owner of the applicable property
would so consent and same would not have a Material Adverse Effect on such property, Owner or
Mortgagee; provided that in no event shall the amount of such insurance exceed the maximum
aggregate amount of such insurance required pursuant to the first sentence of Section 10.1.2.4.
10.1.3 Opting-Out Owners. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, Mall I Owner
and/or Mall II Owner (an “Opting-Out Owner”) may elect at any time and from time to time by
notice to H/C I Owner to obtain on its own behalf (and not on a
shared basis with any other portion of the Integrated Resort) any of the insurance coverages
set forth in Section 10.1.1 hereof (other than with respect to “all risk” property insurance with
respect to any shared perimeters), in which event (a) each Opting-Out Owner shall pay for its own
such insurance and the costs and benefits thereof shall not be shared; (b) each Opting-Out Owner
shall provide H/C I Owner and its Mortgagees, upon request and in all events not less than once
every 12 months, with reasonably satisfactory evidence of such coverage; (c) the insurance coverage
provided by the separate policies maintained by each Owner must be substantially equivalent to
provide coverage for the Opting-Out Owner’s exposures to the coverage that would have been required
to be maintained by H/C I Owner for the benefit of all Owners if the Opting-Out Owners had not made
such election; and (d) in the event that an Opting-Out Owner has elected to obtain on its own
behalf the insurance set forth in Section 10.1.1.1 hereof, then with respect to such Opting-Out
Owner, the coverages maintained by H/C I Owner pursuant to Section 10.1.1 shall be limited to
covering the shared perimeter between the applicable Owners. If the parties cannot agree on any
matter set forth in this Section 10.1.3, the Opting-Out Owner
152
shall still have the right to
immediately opt-out and subsequently any open matters shall be resolved by an Independent insurance
consultant selected by H/C I Owner and satisfactory to the Opting-Out Owners.
10.1.4 Additional Coverage. The Parties acknowledge and confirm that the coverage
requirements set forth in this Article 10 are minimum requirements, and any Owner (for purposes of
this Section 10.1.4, a “Purchasing Owner”) may procure additional coverage (“Additional
Coverage”) so long as the same does not adversely impact any other Owner’s ability to obtain
the minimum required coverages or collect proceeds with respect
thereto. The other Owners shall cooperate in good faith (all reasonable out of pocket costs
of which cooperation shall be reimbursed by the Purchasing Owner) with the efforts by a Purchasing
Owner to purchase Additional Coverage, such cooperation to include, without limitation, increasing
(at the Purchasing Owner’s sole cost and expense) the coverage limit on any insurance required to
be maintained under the preceding provisions of this Article 10. Any Purchasing Owner that
acquires Additional Coverage shall give each other Owner written notice of such fact, which notice
shall designate specified insurance policies or portions thereof as Additional Coverage and shall
be accompanied by a copy of a certificate of insurance evidencing such policy.
Section 10.2 General Conditions Covering Insurance.
10.2.1 Insurer Requirements. All insurance required under this Agreement to be
carried by the Owners shall be effected under valid and enforceable policies and shall:
10.2.1.1 be issued by either (i) insurers rated “A-” or better by Standard and Poor’s, “A-” or
better with a minimum size rating of “VIII” by Best’s
153
Insurance Guide and Key Ratings
(“Best’s”), or (ii) a syndicate of insurers through which at least sixty percent (60%) of
the coverage (if there are 4 or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least fifty percent (50%) of
the coverage (if there are 5 or more members of the syndicate) is with carriers having a
claims-paying-ability rating by Standard and Poor’s not lower than “A-” or by Best’s not lower than
“A-:VIII” and the balance of the coverage is, in each case, with insurers having a
claims-paying-ability rating by Standard and Poor’s of not lower than “BBB” or by Best’s not lower
than “B+”, provided that in each case, the first loss risk is borne by the carriers having a
claims-paying-rating by
Standard and Poor’s of not lower than “A-” or by Best’s not lower than “A-:VIII”; or, with
respect to each rating requirement in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), an equivalent rating by
another nationally recognized insurance rating agency of similar standing if Standard and Poor’s
and Best’s shall no longer be published, and
10.2.1.2 with respect to any flood hazard insurance coverage, be issued by any insurance
company authorized by the United States government to issue such insurance provided such flood
hazard insurance is reinsured by the United States government.
10.2.2 Additional Insured Requirements. All insurance required under
Section 10.1.2.1, Section 10.1.2.2 or Section 10.1.2.4 of this Agreement to be carried by the
Owners shall name each of the Owners and each of their respective Mortgagees as named (solely as to
the Owner purchasing such insurance) or additional insureds, as their interests may appear. Any
Shared Insurance required under this Agreement to be carried by H/C I Owner shall name Trustee, the
applicable Participating Owners and each of their respective Mortgagees as their interests may
appear.
154
10.2.3 Loss Payees. All Shared Insurance policies shall insure the interests of the
applicable Participating Owners and their respective Mortgagees, and shall name Trustee as loss
payee; provided that all Shared Insurance policies covering real or personal property or business
interruption shall name Trustee as additional insured and First Loss Payee/Mortgagee in accordance
with CP12 18 (06/95) or equivalent Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement. All non-Shared Insurance
policies shall name only the applicable Owner and its respective Mortgagee as loss payees. In the
event the HVAC
Plant is insured under the blanket policy, such blanket policy may also contain loss payee
provisions in favor of the owner of the HVAC Plant.
10.2.4 Evidence of Insurance. Each Owner shall submit certificates of insurance of
each policy required pursuant to the requirements of this Article 10. If any other Owner or any
Mortgagee reasonably believes that the information contained in such certificates does not fully
demonstrate that such Owner is maintaining insurance in compliance with the requirements of this
Article 10, such Owner shall submit copies of the policies or redacted portions of such policies to
the extent necessary to demonstrate such compliance. With respect to any Shared Insurance, H/C I
Owner shall also provide all applicable Participating Owners with a copy of a policy endorsement or
applicable excerpts from the policy verifying adding each such applicable Participating Owner as an
additional insured, to the extent the certificates do not show the same.
10.2.5 Trustee.
10.2.5.1 Duties. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to any Owner as a
consequence of performance by the Trustee hereunder except for any bad faith, fraud, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no
155
duties or obligations
hereunder except as expressly set forth herein or in that certain Trustee Disbursement and
Administration Agreement, dated as of November 14, 1997, by and among Phase I LLC; Mall I LLC’s
predecessor-in-interest as Mall I Owner; The Bank of Nova Scotia, as Trustee; and certain other
parties, shall be responsible only for the performance of such duties and obligations and shall not
be required to take any action otherwise than in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.
10.2.5.2 Pledge of Collateral. Any amounts received by the Trustee with respect to
any Shared Insurance proceeds shall be held by the Trustee in accounts for the benefit of the
Mortgagees of the Lots affected and which are covered by such Shared Insurance (or if there is no
such Mortgagee, the applicable Participating Owner). The Trustee shall establish separate accounts
for such proceeds allocable to each respective Lot. At the request of the Participating Owner of a
particular Lot, the account established with respect to such Lot will permit the investment of the
funds therein in investments identified by said Participating Owner, subject to the reasonable
approval of the Mortgagee of such Lot. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
10.2.5.2.1 any such account established for a particular Lot and all funds and investments
therein and all proceeds thereof are hereby pledged, assigned, transferred and delivered by the
respective Participating Owners to the Trustee for the benefit of the Mortgagees of such Lot, and
such Participating Owners hereby grant to the Trustee for the benefit of such Mortgagees a
continuing lien on and security interest in all of the foregoing as collateral security for the
obligations under their respective loan documents, in the same priorities as apply to the liens
which they hold with respect to such Lots; and
156
10.2.5.2.2 such Participating Owners shall take all steps reasonably requested by the Trustee
or such Mortgagees in order to perfect said security interests.
10.2.5.3 Casualty. In the event of any damage or destruction by fire or other
casualty (each, a “Casualty”) covered by Shared Insurance for which the Trustee receives
any proceeds, such proceeds shall be held in trust for the applicable
Participating Owners and their respective Mortgagees until such time as they are distributed
by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.4.3 hereof. In the event that,
pursuant to Section 10.4.3, any Participating Owner or Mortgagee elects for any property Shared
Insurance proceeds to be retained and held in Trust by Trustee, the following provisions shall
apply with respect to the distribution of such proceeds:
10.2.5.3.1 Interim Payments. At the end of each month, or from time to time, as
reasonably requested by the applicable Participating Owner, against such Participating Owner’s
Independent Architect’s certificate in form and content reasonably satisfactory to the affected
Mortgagees of each Owner’s Lot, the Trustee shall distribute to such Participating Owner (or at
such Participating Owner’s direction, to its contractor or contractors) an amount which shall be
that proportion of the total amount held in trust for such Participating Owner which 90% (or such
greater amount as may be reasonably agreed to by the applicable Participating Owner(s) and their
Mortgagees) of the payments to be made to the contractors or materialmen for work done, material
supplied and services rendered during each month or other period bears to the total contract price
for such contractors or materialmen; provided that at the time of any such progress payment
(a) there are no liens against the property by reason of such work which have not
157
been bonded or
insured over, and (b) to the extent the aggregate amount of any insurance proceeds shall be less
than the amount necessary to restore the affected property, the Party entitled to such proceeds has
paid such deficiency out of other funds.
10.2.5.3.2 Final Payment. At the completion of the applicable work, the balance of
such proceeds required to complete the payment of such work shall be paid to the applicable
Participating Owner (or, if required by its loan
documents, its Mortgagee for payment to the applicable contractors or materialmen) entitled to
such proceeds, or its contractor or contractors, provided that at the time of such payment
(a) there are no liens against the property by reason of such work which have not been bonded or
insured over, and with respect to the time of payment of any balance remaining to be paid at the
completion of the work the period within which a lien may be filed has expired, or proof has been
submitted that all costs of work theretofore incurred have been paid, and (b) the applicable
Participating Owner’s Independent Architect shall certify in a certificate, the form and content of
which is reasonably satisfactory to the affected Mortgagee, that all required work is completed
and proper and of a quality and class of the original work and in accordance with the Plans.
10.2.5.3.3 Excess Proceeds. Any property Shared Insurance proceeds not required to be
applied to pay for the costs of rebuilding under Article 11 hereof, shall be paid by the Trustee to
the applicable Participating Owner entitled to such excess proceeds (or, if required by its loan
documents, its Mortgagee).
10.2.6 Mortgagees.
10.2.6.1 Approval of Certain Insurance. Unless otherwise permitted under the
applicable Owner’s loan documents, with respect to the insurance set
158
forth in Section 10.1.2.1
hereof, deductibles and/or self-insured retention in excess of $500,000 shall be subject to review
and approval by the applicable Mortgagee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; provided a Commercially Reasonable Owner of the applicable property
would so approve and same would not have a Material Adverse Effect on such property, Owner or
Mortgagee. Without limiting anything set forth in this Article 10, each applicable Mortgagee shall
also
have the approval rights set forth in Section 10.1.2.4, Section 11.2 and Section 11.1.3
hereof, if applicable.
10.2.6.2 Right to Cure. On or before December 30th of each year during the Term or
upon request (but not more than once in any twelve (12) month period), H/C I Owner shall furnish to
Trustee and each other Owner, with a copy for each Mortgagee, a certificate signed by an officer of
H/C I Owner or an authorized insurance representative of H/C I Owner, showing the insurance then
maintained by or on behalf of H/C I Owner under this Article 10 and stating that such insurance
complies in all material aspects with the terms hereof, together with a statement from the
applicable insurance companies of the premiums then due, if any. If at any time the insurance
required to be maintained by H/C I Owner under this Article 10 shall be reduced or cease to be
maintained (other than as a result of any other Owner electing to be an Opting-Out Owner with
respect thereto), then (without limiting the rights of Trustee and/or any Mortgagee hereunder in
respect of any event of default which arises as a result of such failure), Trustee at the direction
of any of the Mortgagees may, but shall not be obligated to, maintain the insurance required hereby
and, in such event, H/C I Owner shall reimburse
159
Trustee and/or the applicable Mortgagees upon
demand for the cost thereof together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate.
10.2.6.2.1 Mortgagee Consent to Release of Proceeds. If all or any material portion
of the Integrated Resort shall be damaged or destroyed in whole or in part by Casualty, the Owner
of the property incurring the loss shall notify all Mortgagee(s) within ten (10) Business Days of
the occurrence of such Casualty. Each affected Mortgagee shall permit insurance proceeds with
respect to any Casualty to be
applied to restoration of buildings and/or other improvements on or in the affected Lot in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 10 and Article 11, provided that such affected
Mortgagee shall have received on or before ninety (90) days after the date of the Casualty in
question a certificate from an Independent Expert certifying that (a) such Casualty can be restored
within three (3) years after the date of delivery of such certificate and (b) the aggregate amount
of insurance proceeds payable in connection with such Casualty (together with any other funds
committed by the affected Owners to be applied to such restoration, and provided that the Owner of
the Lot as to which such Mortgagee has a security interest in shall be deemed to have committed any
funds needed to cover the costs of such restoration) shall be sufficient to finance the anticipated
cost (including scheduled debt service payments through the anticipated date of completion of the
restoration) of such restoration as set forth in such certificate. If the condition set forth in
the preceding clause (a) or the condition set forth in the preceding clause (b) cannot be satisfied
with respect to a particular Lot, any affected Mortgagee shall be paid its equitable share of the
applicable insurance proceeds (as determined by an Independent Expert and subject to
160
Section 10.4.2.1 and Section 10.4.2.2), to be applied in accordance with the provisions of its loan
documents.
10.2.7 Mutual Release; Waiver of Subrogation. Each Party hereby releases and waives
for itself, and to the extent legally possible for it to do so, on behalf of its insurer, each of
the other Parties and their officers, directors, agents, members, partners, servants and employees
from liability for any loss or damage to any or all property (including any resulting loss of time
element including business interruption, rents or extra expense) located in or on the H/C I Space,
the H/C II Space, the Mall I Space, the Mall II
Space, the SECC Land and/or any improvements located in or on any of the foregoing, which loss
or damage is of the type said Party is required to insure against by this Article 10, irrespective
of any negligence on the part of the released Party which may have contributed to or caused such
loss or damage. Each Party covenants that it will, if generally available in the insurance
industry, obtain for the benefit of each such released Party a waiver of any right of subrogation
which the insurer of such Party may acquire against any such Party by virtue of the payment of any
such loss covered by such insurance.
10.2.8 Insurance Not Commercially Available. If any insurance (including the limits,
coverages, coinsurance waiver or deductibles thereof) required to be maintained under this
Article 10, other than insurance required to be maintained by law, shall not be Commercially
Available, the applicable Owners and their respective Mortgagees shall not unreasonably withhold
their consent to waive such requirement to the extent maintenance thereof is not so available;
provided (a) the Owner normally responsible for maintaining such insurance shall first
request any such waiver in writing,
161
which request shall be accompanied by written reports in form
and content and prepared by an Independent insurance advisor of recognized national standing
reasonably acceptable to the other Owners certifying that such insurance is not reasonably
available (e.g. obtainable in the insurance marketplace at costs not to exceed 150% of the amount
of the prior premiums) and commercially feasible in the commercial insurance market for property of
a similar type (collectively, “Commercially Available”) (and, in any case where the
required amount is not so available, certifying as to the maximum amount which is so available) and
setting forth the basis for such conclusions, (b) at any time after the granting of any
such waiver, the applicable Owners shall furnish to the other Owners within fifteen (15) days
after request by the other Owners, updates of the prior reports reasonably acceptable to such other
Owners from such insurance advisor reaffirming such conclusion, and (c) any such waiver shall be
effective only so long as such insurance shall not be Commercially Available, it being understood
that the failure of the applicable Owners to timely furnish any such updated report after any such
request shall be conclusive evidence that such waiver is no longer effective. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 10, any failure to maintain insurance coverage
in accordance with any provision of this Article 10 due to such insurance being commercially
unavailable shall not constitute a default hereunder and the Owner normally responsible for
maintaining such insurance shall be in full compliance with such provisions so long as such Owner
has complied with the provisions of this Section 10.2.8.
10.2.9 Policies on “claims-made” basis. If any policy is written on a “claims-made”
basis and such policy is not to be renewed or the retroactive date of such policy is to be changed,
the applicable Owner shall obtain prior to the expiration date or
162
date change of such policy the
broadest basic and supplemental extended reporting period coverage reasonably available in the
commercial insurance market for each such policy and shall promptly provide the other Owners with
proof that such coverage has been obtained.
10.2.10 Termination. Each policy required to be maintained under this Article 10
shall provide that such insurance may not be canceled, terminated or materially changed for any
reason whatsoever, unless the insurance carrier delivers thirty (30) days (or ten (10) days in
connection with a notice of nonpayment of premium) notice of such
cancellation, termination or material change to the Owners and their Mortgagees and Trustee.
Section 10.3 Non-Shared Insurance Premiums, Limit and Deductible Sharing and Loss
Adjustment Process.
10.3.1 Premiums. Each Owner’s Insurance Share of the premiums of any non-Shared
Insurance purchased by such Owner solely for its own benefit (including, without limitation, any
insurance set forth in Section 10.1.2 or Section 10.1.4 hereof) shall be one hundred percent
(100%), and such Owner shall bear all of the costs of such insurance. Such Owner shall pay all
such costs on or before the date due.
10.3.2 Limit and Deductible Sharing. With respect to any non-Shared Insurance
purchased by any Owner for its own benefit, there shall not be any loss limit or deductible
sharing. Any such Owner shall be entitled to one hundred percent (100%) of all proceeds and
benefits with respect to any such insurance, subject to any rights of its Mortgagees under its loan
documents.
163
10.3.3 Loss Adjustment. With respect to any non-Shared Insurance purchased by any
Owner for its own benefit, the applicable Owner shall have sole control over any loss adjustment
process, subject to any rights of its Mortgagees under its loan documents. If requested by any
such Owner, the other Owners shall reasonably cooperate with and assist such Owner in adjusting any
such loss (at the requesting Owner’s expense). In the event that the Trustee or any other Owner or
any of their respective Mortgagees shall receive proceeds relating to any non-Shared Insurance,
such amount shall be promptly paid over as the applicable Owner shall direct. Any such property
non-Shared Insurance proceeds (excluding the proceeds of any business interruption, or use and
occupancy
insurance) shall be used with all reasonable diligence by the applicable Owner and/or its
Mortgagee for rebuilding, repairing or otherwise reconstructing, to the extent required pursuant to
the provisions of Article 11.
Section 10.4 Shared Insurance Premiums, Limit and Deductible Sharing and Loss Adjustment
Process.
10.4.1 Insurance Share. Each Owner’s Insurance Share with respect to any Shared
Insurance in which such Owner is participating shall be determined as follows:
10.4.1.1 Allocation. The premiums with respect to any Shared Insurance shall be
allocated among the applicable Participating Owners based on the percentage of total insured values
relative to such Shared Insurance, as such values are determined by the insurance carrier providing
the Shared Insurance or applicable insurance broker on a commercially reasonable basis and in
accordance with the following provisions of this Section 10.4.1 (provided, however, that in the
event any Participating Owner disagrees with such allocation, such Participating Owner may submit
the same to an
164
Independent Expert for determination). Each Participating Owner who is covered by
such Shared Insurance agrees to promptly (and in no event later than 120 days prior to the
expiration of each relevant insurance policy) provide to H/C I Owner’s insurance companies,
consultants, brokers and agents (with a copy to the other Participating Owners who are sharing in
such Shared Insurance) any reasonable information requested by any of such persons and entities in
connection with (a) the procurement or maintenance of such Shared Insurance and (b) the calculation
of each Participating Owner’s Insurance Share.
10.4.1.1.1 Factors. In determining any such allocation of premiums, the insurance
carrier providing the Shared Insurance or applicable insurance
broker shall be instructed as follows: (a) premiums with respect to insurance for any shared
perimeters shall be allocated equally to each Participating Owner abutting such shared perimeter,
(b) if applicable, the space demised pursuant to that certain Casino Level Restaurant/Retail Master
Lease (the “Phase I Casino Level Leased Space”) dated May 17, 2004 (as the same has been
and may hereafter be amended), by and between H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner (the “Phase I Casino
Level Master Lease”) shall be considered as part of the Mall I Space for purposes of
determining any Mall I Owner’s Insurance Share and any H/C I Owner’s Insurance Share, and (c) if
applicable, the space demised pursuant to that certain Casino Level Restaurant/Retail Master Lease
(the “Phase II Casino Level Leased Space”) of even date herewith (as the same may hereafter
be amended), by and between H/C II Owner and Mall II LLC (the “Phase II Casino Level Master
Lease”) shall be considered as part of the Mall II Space for purposes of determining any
Mall II Owner’s Insurance Share and any H/C II Owner’s Insurance Share.
165
10.4.1.1.2 Changes in Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if at any time
there is a material addition or deletion to any applicable Participating Owner’s covered property
which is then subject to any Shared Insurance, any applicable Insurance Shares shall be
appropriately adjusted by mutual agreement of the applicable Owners, and (b) if Mall I Owner or
Mall II Owner (for purposes of this clause (b) only, the “Electing Owner”) purchases
Additional Coverage that, with respect to its Property, is “primary to” rather than “in excess of”
any Shared Insurance coverage with respect to which it is a Participating Owner, then (i) the
Electing Owner’s Insurance Share with respect to such Shared Insurance coverage shall be equitably
reduced, each other Participating Owner’s Insurance Share with respect to such Shared Insurance
coverage
shall be equitably increased, and (ii) any resulting rebate in the cost of obtaining and
maintaining such Shared Insurance coverage shall be for the benefit of the Electing Owner.
10.4.1.1.3 Payment of Shared Insurance Costs. Within ten (10) Business Days of
receipt from an invoice from H/C I Owner with respect to any Shared Insurance in which the
applicable Participating Owner is participating (which invoice shall include the underlying invoice
from the applicable insurance carrier or broker along with the applicable premium allocation), each
applicable Participating Owner shall pay its Insurance Share of such Shared Insurance to H/C I
Owner. H/C I Owner shall pay the costs of any such Shared Insurance prior to the date the same are
due. If any applicable Participating Owner shall fail to make any payment required to be made in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.4.1.1.3, H/C I Owner shall still pay such costs
in full prior to the date the same are due, and the non-paying Participating Owner shall reimburse
H/C I Owner, on demand therefor, for the amount advanced by H/C I Owner on such non-
166
paying
Participating Owner’s behalf, with interest thereon for the period from such demand to such
reimbursement at the Interest Rate. In the event of any dispute as to such amount, the
Participating Owner shall promptly pay the non-disputed portion thereof, and provide in writing the
basis of such dispute, which the Participating Owners shall endeavor to resolve in good faith.
10.4.1.1.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owners acknowledge and confirm that (i) the
allocations among the Owners of the costs of the current policies of insurance which expire on
April 12, 2008 have previously been agreed to and paid in full, and (ii) the insurance carrier
providing the Shared Insurance or applicable insurance broker shall determine the aggregate
Insurance Share of H/C I Owner,
H/C II Owner and SECC Owner, and such Owners shall allocate such aggregate Insurance Share
amongst themselves as they see fit.
10.4.2 Loss Limits and Deductibles. Except as hereinafter set forth, the proceeds,
loss limits and deductibles with respect to any Shared Insurance shall be based on the percentage
each applicable Participating Owner’s insured loss value bears to the total loss incurred.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a terrorism loss or a loss that exceeds the limits
available covered by Shared Insurance, the proceeds, loss limits and/or deductibles shall be as
follows:
10.4.2.1 Terrorism. Any Shared Insurance proceeds (including proceeds in connection
with “business interruption” or similar coverage) payable in connection with a Casualty that is the
result of a terrorist act affecting all or any portion of the Phase I Mall, the Phase I
Hotel/Casino or the SECC shall be allocated equitably to each applicable Participating Owner across
each of such properties based on the percentage each
167
applicable Participating Owner’s insured loss
value bears to the total loss incurred; provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, such proceeds shall be paid (a) first, if Mall I Owner is a Participating Owner in such
Shared Insurance, to the Mortgagee of Mall I Owner, in an amount equal to the lesser of
(i) $120,000,000, (ii) the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of indebtedness owed to
Mall I Owner’s Mortgagees, (iii) the sum of (x) the cost of restoring the Phase I Mall and
(y) rental income lost by Mall I Owner as a result of such Casualty, to the extent such lost income
is covered by the applicable insurance policy or policies and (iv) the total amount of such
insurance proceeds, and (b) second, if SECC Owner is a Participating Owner in such Shared
Insurance, to the Mortgagee of SECC Owner, in an amount at least equal to the lesser of
(i) $141,000,000, (ii) the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of indebtedness owed to
SECC Owner’s Mortgagees, (iii) the sum of (x) the cost of restoring the SECC and (y) income lost by
SECC Owner as a result of such casualty, to the extent such lost income is covered by the
applicable insurance policy or policies and (iv) the total amount of such proceeds.
10.4.2.2 Loss In Excess of Insurance Limit. If there is an insured loss in excess of
the limit of insurance available with respect to any property covered by a Shared Insurance policy
maintained under this Article 10, each applicable Participating Owner’s percentage share of the
limit and deductible applicable to, and proceeds payable under, such policy shall (subject to the
provisions of Section 10.4.2.1) be calculated based on the relative losses (with respect to
property covered by such Shared Insurance) suffered by each Participating Owner.
168
10.4.3 Loss Adjustment. In case of any Casualty with respect to the Integrated Resort
or any portion thereof which is covered by Shared Insurance, the applicable Participating Owners
and such Owners’ Mortgagees (to the extent required under the applicable loan documents) shall
jointly settle, compromise and adjust any claim in good faith. Trustee shall pay over to the
applicable Participating Owners (or any Participating Owner’s Mortgagee if, (i) at the time, there
is an event of default under such Mortgagee’s loan documents, or (ii) the same is required by such
Mortgagee’s loan documents) the applicable insurance proceeds received by Trustee in accordance
with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that at the election of any Participating Owner or
any Mortgagee, all such property Shared Insurance proceeds shall be retained and held in trust by
Trustee and distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.5.3
hereof. Such Participating Owners and/or Mortgagees shall allocate such Shared Insurance
proceeds in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.4 and any such property Shared
Insurance proceeds (excluding the proceeds of any business interruption, or use and occupancy
insurance) shall be used with all reasonable diligence by the Party entitled to such proceeds under
the provisions of this Agreement for rebuilding, repairing or otherwise reconstructing, to the
extent required pursuant to the provisions of Article 11.
10.4.4 Disputes. If the applicable Participating Owners and/or their respective
Mortgagees (to the extent required under any applicable loan documents) cannot agree as to any
decision regarding any actual or proposed adjustment, settlement or compromise with respect to any
Shared Insurance within ninety (90) days after the need for any such decision first arises, then
any applicable Participating Owner and/or their respective Mortgagees shall have the right to
submit the decision in question to an
169
Independent Expert selected by such Participating Owners
and/or their respective Mortgagees pursuant to Section 14.16 hereof.
Section 10.5 Insurance Requirements Review. At the request of any Party, but not more
frequently than once every three (3) years and not earlier than the third (3rd) anniversary of the

interest in each proceeding or negotiation with respect to a Taking or intended Taking and to make
full proof of its claims, and each Mortgagee of such
Owner to the extent permitted under such Mortgagee’s loan documents shall have the right to
appear in and prosecute in its own or in such Owner’s name any proceeding or negotiation with

which shall be in excess of $1,500,000 shall be made without the consent of the relevant Owners and
their respective Mortgagees, but only to the extent such consent is required under the applicable

180
award (other than with respect to the SECC or the SECC Land) in excess of $1,500,000

(iii) the Mall I Space and/or the Phase I Mall and (iv) the Mall II Space and/or the Phase II Mall,
if the condemning authority does not, as part of the Taking proceeding, determine the amount of
condemnation proceeds payable to each relevant Owner, but rather makes a determination only as to
the aggregate amount of proceeds payable to all relevant Owners in connection with the Taking, each
relevant Owner shall receive its appropriate equitable share of such proceeds, as reasonably agreed
to by such relevant Owners. Such relevant Owners shall, in all of their discussions and
negotiations
with the condemning authority, argue for the awarding of separate Taking proceeds payable to
each in accordance with the foregoing.

unaffected by such condemnation or taking and each Party shall continue to be responsible for all
of its obligations hereunder (except to the extent prevented from so doing by reason of such
condemnation or taking). In such event, however, the affected Party shall be entitled to appear,
claim, prove and receive the entire award in connection with such temporary taking. If such
temporary use or occupancy terminates prior to the Expiration Date, the affected Party, at its own
expense, shall restore its premises as nearly as possible to its condition prior to the
condemnation or taking.

with Section 14.16, which shall be the exclusive and binding method for the resolution of any such
dispute. Each Owner agrees to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the
other any instruments that may be required to effectuate or facilitate the provisions of this
Agreement relating to the matters set forth in this Section 12.7.

Compromise. In case of any contemplated Taking with respect to any portion of the
Integrated Resort, the relevant Owners (or any such Owner’s Mortgagee if, at the time, there
is an event of default under such Mortgagee’s loan documents) shall jointly participate in any
relevant action or proceeding and jointly settle or compromise any award. Trustee shall pay over
to such Owners and/or Mortgagees the applicable proceeds of the Taking upon receipt therefor by
Trustee and such Persons shall use such proceeds to perform a restoration in accordance with the
provisions of this Article 12.
Section 12.9 Mortgagee Consent to Release of Condemnation Award Proceeds. If all or
any material portion of the Phase I Hotel/Casino, the Phase I Mall, the Phase II Hotel/Casino or

shall notify all Mortgagee(s) within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice of such Taking.
Each affected Mortgagee shall permit condemnation award proceeds with respect to any Taking to be
applied to restoration of buildings and/or
182
other improvements on or in the affected Lot in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 12; provided that such affected Mortgagee
shall have received on or before ninety (90) days after the date such Mortgagee’s receipt of the
notice described above a certificate from an Independent Expert certifying that (x) any restoration
of the affected property required as a consequence of such Taking can be completed within one
(1) year after the date of delivery of such certificate and (y) the amount of condemnation award
proceeds payable in connection with such Taking (together with any other funds committed by the
affected Owner to be applied to such restoration) shall be sufficient to finance the anticipated
cost (including scheduled debt service payments through the anticipated date of completion of the
restoration) of such restoration as set forth in such certificate. If both of the conditions set
forth in the preceding (x) and (y) cannot be satisfied with respect to a
particular Lot, any affected Mortgagee shall be paid its equitable share as determined by the
Independent Expert of condemnation award proceeds to be applied in accordance with the provisions
of its Mortgage and any other loan documents entered into in connection with such Mortgage.

incurred in connection therewith, to assure payment of the matters under contest or to prevent any
sale or forfeiture of such Owner’s Lot or any part thereof; (iv) such Owner shall timely upon final
determination thereof pay the amount of any such cost, together with all costs, interest, fines and

Mortgagee pay (and if such Owner shall fail so to do, any such Mortgagee may,

but shall not be
required to, pay or cause to be discharged or bonded against) any such cost, and all such interest,
fines and penalties, notwithstanding such contest, if in the reasonable opinion of any such

Holders provided that at no time shall there be more than ten (10) such separate
Subdivided Interest Holders with respect to either the Phase I Land, Phase II Land or the SECC
Land, as applicable.
14.3.2 A Mortgagee shall not be deemed to be an Interest Holder unless such Mortgagee is also
a Transferee.
14.3.3 14.3.3.1 All of the Interest Holders with respect to each of the Phase I Land, the
Phase II Land, the Phase I Mall, the Phase II Mall and the SECC Land shall designate one of their
number as their agent (an “Agent”) to act on their behalf so that other Parties shall not
be required with respect to the applicable land or improvements, as the case may be, to obtain the
action or agreement of, or to proceed against, more than one individual or entity in carrying out
or enforcing the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of this Agreement. The foregoing
requirements to designate an Agent shall not
188
apply to stockholders and bondholders of a corporate
Party, the members of a limited liability company or partners of a partnership.
14.3.3.2 Where the transfer is of partial interests as described above but the Persons owning
such partial interests fail to designate an Agent, the acts of the Person who was deemed to be the
Party to this Agreement prior to the transfer (whether or not such Party retains any interest in
the property in question) shall be binding on all Persons having an interest or right in the
applicable land or improvements until such time as written notice of such designation is given and
recorded in the Recorder’s Office and a copy thereof is served on the Parties hereto as required by
Section 14.15.
14.3.3.3 The exercise of any powers and rights of a Party by such Party’s Agent shall be
binding upon all Persons having an ownership or leasehold interest or right in the applicable land
or improvements and upon all Persons having an ownership
interest in the Party in question, to the same extent as if such exercise had been performed
by such Party. The other Parties shall have the right to deal with and rely solely upon the acts
and omissions of such Party’s Agent in connection with their performance of this Agreement, but
such designation of an Agent shall not relieve any Party from its obligations under this Agreement.
14.3.3.4 An Agent shall be the authorized agent of its principals for service of any process,
writ, summons, order or other mandate of any nature of any court in any action, suit or proceeding
arising out of this Agreement. Service upon an Agent shall constitute due and proper service of
any such matter upon its principals. Until a successor Agent has been appointed and notice of such
appointment has been given
189
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14.3, the designation of a
Party’s Agent shall remain irrevocable.
14.3.4 Restrictions on Phase I Mall Sales.
Mall I Owner covenants and agrees, for the benefit of H/C I Owner only, as follows:
14.3.4.1 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, but subject to the provisions of
Section 14.3.4.3 below, no Phase I Mall Sale may be consummated unless H/C I Owner is given not
less than thirty (30) days written notice of such contemplated transaction and unless H/C I Owner
consents to such transaction, which consent may be withheld in H/C I Owner’s sole and absolute
discretion; provided, however, that such consent shall not be required (but such
prior written notice shall still be required) if (x) neither the transferee nor any Affiliate
thereof is a Competitor, (y) the transferee (or an Affiliate thereof) owns or manages not less than
ten million (10,000,000) square feet of retail space in the United States and (z) such Phase I Mall
Sale would not, in
the good-faith judgment of H/C I Owner, jeopardize any of H/C I Owner’s Gaming Licenses. In
all events, neither Mall I Owner nor any Affiliate thereof shall ever be a Competitor, whether as
the result of a Phase I Mall Sale or otherwise, unless H/C I Owners consents with respect thereto.
Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Phase I Casino Level Master Lease, the tenant under the
Phase I Casino Level Master Lease must always be Mall I Owner or an Affiliate thereof.
14.3.4.2 Except as described in Section 14.3.4.3 below, H/C I Owner shall have a right of
first offer to consummate any Phase I Mall Sale in accordance with and subject to the following
procedures, and no Phase I Mall Sale shall occur except in accordance with and subject to such
procedures:
190
14.3.4.2.1 If Mall I Owner (which, for purposes of this Section 14.3.4, shall include any
owner of a direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interest in Mall I Owner) desires to
either (x) sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Mall I Space or Phase I Mall or any portion of
either or any such direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interests (any such asset or
interest, including the entire Mall I Space and Phase I Mall, a “Mall I Asset”), or
(y) lease all or substantially all of the Mall I Space or Phase I Mall to one Person or a group of
Affiliated Persons (any such sale, assignment, transfer or lease, a “Phase I Mall Sale”),
Mall I Owner must make a written offer to sell such Mall I Asset to H/C I Owner, which offer must
include the proposed purchase price (or proposed rental payments, in the case of a lease) and all
other material terms of the proposed transaction. Upon receipt of such notice, H/C I Owner shall
have thirty (30) days in which to notify Mall I Owner that it has elected to purchase such Mall I
Asset upon the terms of the offer made to H/C I Owner.
14.3.4.2.2 In the event that H/C I Owner accepts Mall I Owner’s offer within said thirty (30)
day period, the parties shall negotiate in good-faith for the sixty (60) day period following such
acceptance the terms and provisions of a definitive binding purchase agreement (or lease agreement,
if applicable) in connection therewith. In the event that notwithstanding such good faith
negotiation, no definitive binding written purchase agreement or lease agreement is entered into
between the parties within said sixty (60) day period, Mall I Owner may then, without having to
once again comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.3.4.2, either:
14.3.4.2.2.1 Market the applicable Mall I Asset and conclude the applicable Phase I
Mall Sale for a purchase price not less
191
than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase
price offered to H/C I Owner (or for rental payments having a present value (assuming a 6%
annual discount rate) of not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments
offered to H/C I Owner, in the case of a lease) and otherwise upon terms not materially
less advantageous to Mall I Owner than the terms offered to H/C I Owner, but only if such
transaction is consummated, or the definitive binding written purchase agreement or lease
agreement with respect thereto is entered into, no later than six (6) months after the
expiration of said sixty (60) day period; or
14.3.4.2.2.2 In the event Mall I Owner desires to sell such Mall I Asset for a
purchase price which is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price offered
to H/C I Owner (or for rental payments having a present value (assuming a 6% annual
discount rate) of less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments offered to
H/C I Owner, in the case of a
lease) or otherwise on terms materially less advantageous to Mall I Owner than the
terms offered to H/C I Owner, provide H/C I Owner (no later than six (6) months after the
expiration of said sixty (60) day period) with written notice of the terms of the offer
from a third-party that Mall I Owner intends to accept (which notice must include a copy of
the proposed definitive binding written purchase agreement or lease agreement that Mall I
Owner intends to execute). In such event, H/C I Owner shall have ten (10) Business Days in
which to notify Mall I Owner that H/C I Owner has elected to purchase such Mall I Asset
upon the terms of the offer presented to H/C I Owner and five (5) days following the
delivery of such notice to execute such a definitive written binding purchase agreement or
lease agreement.
192
If H/C I Owner fails to provide such notice within such ten (10) Business
Day period or thereafter fails to enter into a definitive written binding purchase
agreement or lease agreement within such five (5) day period, Mall I Owner may, without
having to once again comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.3.4.2, accept
such third-party offer and consummate the applicable Phase I Mall Sale with such
third–party on terms materially consistent with such offer.
14.3.4.2.3 In the event H/C I Owner rejects an offer made by Mall I Owner pursuant to
Section 14.3.4.2.1, Mall I Owner may, without once again complying with the foregoing provisions of
this Section 14.3.4.2, consummate the applicable Phase I Mall Sale with a third party for a
purchase price greater than or equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price offered to
H/C I Owner (or for rental payments having a present value (assuming a 6% annual discount rate) of
not less than
ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments offered to H/C I Owner, in the case of a
lease), and otherwise on terms not materially less advantageous to Mall I Owner than the terms
offered to H/C I Owner, but only if such sale is consummated, or the definitive binding written
purchase agreement or lease agreement with respect thereto is entered into, no later than six (6)
months after the date H/C I Owner rejected Mall I Owner’s offer.
14.3.4.2.4 In the event that any Phase I Mall Sale is intended to be consummated as part of a
portfolio sale of other properties and/or interests, Mall I Owner shall cause a fair and reasonable
portion of the aggregate purchase price for such portfolio sale to be allocated to such Phase I
Mall Sale for all purposes of this Section 14.3.4.2.
193
14.3.4.3 Mall I Owner acknowledges and confirms that subject to the next sentence, both the
provisions of Section 14.3.4.1 above and Section 14.3.4.2 above, apply with respect to any Phase I
Mall Sale, so that compliance with one set of provisions does not obviate or nullify in any way the
requirement that the other set of provisions be complied with. However, the provisions of
Sections 14.3.4.1 and 14.3.4.2 above shall not apply to (a) sales or other transfers or issuances
of direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interests that do not, pursuant to one
transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions, exceed 66 2/3% of the beneficial
interests in Mall I Owner and that do not result in a change in the Person or Persons that
ultimately “control” Mall I Owner (as the term “control” is used in the definition of Affiliate),
(b) transfers to Affiliates, (c) any Phase I Mall Sale pursuant to a judgment of foreclosure of a
Mortgage, or any conveyance(s) of the Mall I Space and/or Phase I Mall to any Mall I Mortgagee or
any Affiliate thereof in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction (any such
foreclosure or deed-in-lieu thereof, “Phase I Mall Foreclosure Sale”), and, if the
purchaser or transferee in a Phase I Mall Foreclosure Sale is a Mall I Mortgagee or any Affiliate
thereof, any subsequent Phase I Mall Sales by such Mortgagee or Affiliate or any of its direct or
indirect equity holders or beneficial owners, provided that the right of first offer shall
thereafter apply (subject to clauses (a) – (e) of this sentence) to any Phase I Mall Sales in which
the seller or transferor is not any of such parties, (d) any transfers or issuances of stock of
General Growth Properties, Inc. or its corporate successor or any other company with stock publicly
traded on the American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange or a similar stock exchange of
another nation or (e) any transfers or issuances of partnership interests in GGP Limited
Partnership.
194
14.3.4.4 By joining in the execution of this Agreement, certain holders of direct and indirect
equity and beneficial ownership interests in Mall I Owner agree, on behalf of themselves and their
successors and assigns, to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.3.4. Each holder of such
ownership interests in Mall I Owner shall, as a condition to any sale of its interest, obtain a
written agreement from its Transferee, for the benefit of H/C I Owner, agreeing to be bound by the
provisions of Section 14.3.4, and shall deliver a copy of such written agreement to H/C I Owner.
14.3.4.5 Any Phase I Mall Sale that is made in violation of this Section 14.3.4 shall be void
ab initio.
14.3.4.6 In the event that any Mall I Mortgagee delivers a written notice of any default or
event of default under its mortgage encumbering the Mall I Space (a “Mall I Mortgage”) or
that the outstanding principal under the note or notes secured by such Mall I Mortgage has become
due (whether by acceleration or for any other reason)
(any such notice, a “Mall I Mortgage Default Notice”), the Mall I Mortgagee shall,
simultaneously with the delivery of such notice to Mall I Owner, deliver a copy thereof to H/C I
Owner. In such event, and so long as at the time such notice is delivered H/C I Owner satisfies
the Financial Covenant (as defined below), H/C I Owner shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to make any payment or take any other action necessary to cure any default or event of
default that is susceptible to cure by H/C I Owner (a “Curable Default”), and the
applicable Mall I Mortgagee shall be obligated to accept such cure as if the payment was made or
the action was taken by Mall I Owner, provided that (x) H/C I Owner shall not be entitled
to cure more than three (3) interest payment defaults in any twelve (12) month period and (y) if,
at any time after a Mall I Mortgage Default Notice is
195
given but before the applicable Curable
Default is cured, the Financial Covenant is no longer satisfied, H/C I Owner’s cure right with
respect to such Curable Default shall terminate. H/C I Owner shall have the same cure period
granted to Mall I Owner under the Mall I Mortgage and related loan documents (collectively,
including the Mall I Mortgage, the “Mall I Loan Documents”), plus (A) with respect to the
payment of interest or principal (other than accelerated principal) required by the Mall I Loan
Documents, three (3) Business Days (and in all events not less than three (3) Business Days after
H/C I Owner’s receipt of the applicable Mall I Mortgage Default Notice), (B) with respect to the
payment of any other amounts under the Mall I Loan Documents, five (5) Business Days (and in all
events not less than five (5) Business Days after H/C I Owner’s receipt of the applicable Mall I
Mortgage Default Notice), and (C) with respect to any Curable Default other than a failure to make
a payment required by the Mall I Loan Documents, and provided (1) H/C I Owner delivers written
notice to Mall I Mortgagee of its intention to
cure such default within five (5) Business Days after H/C I Owner’s receipt of the applicable
Mall I Mortgage Default Notice and (2) H/C I Owner is diligently proceeding to cure such default,
such additional time (but not to exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days in the aggregate) as is
reasonably necessary for H/C I Owner to take or effectuate such actions necessary to cure such
default. After any Mall I Mortgage Default Notice is given, the applicable Mortgagee shall give
H/C I Owner written notice if the default or event of default is subsequently cured (other than by
H/C I Owner) or acceleration is revoked.
14.3.4.7 In the event the entire principal sum secured by any Mall I Mortgage becomes
immediately due and payable, whether by acceleration or for any
196
other reason, the Mall I Mortgagee
shall promptly give H/C I Owner written notice of such event (such notice, the “Acceleration
Notice”), and so long as at the time such notice is given H/C I Owner satisfies the Financial
Covenant, H/C I Owner shall have the option (the “Buy-Out Option”) to purchase Mall I
Mortgagee’s interest in the Mall I Loan Documents and the loan evidenced thereby (the “Mall I
Loan”) at a price equal to the Buy-Out Option Purchase Price (as defined below), provided that
H/C I Owner shall not have such option unless (x) it gives written notice to Mall I Mortgagee of
its election to exercise such option no later than sixty (60) days after the Acceleration Notice
was given and (y) at the time H/C I Owner gives such notice it satisfies the Financial Covenant.
If H/C I Owner elects to exercise such option, H/C I Owner shall be obligated to purchase, and
Mall I Mortgagee shall be obligated to sell, the Mall I Loan and the Mall I Loan Documents for the
Buy-Out Option Purchase Price on a date not less than five (5) Business Days, nor more than ten
(10) Business Days, after H/C I Owner delivers its written notice to Mall I
Mortgagee of such election, such date to be selected by Mall I Mortgagee). Upon payment by
H/C I Owner to Mall I Mortgagee of the Buy-Out Option Purchase Price on the applicable date, the
Mall I Mortgagee shall, pursuant to assignment documents that contain no representations or
warranties other than a representation that the Mall I Mortgagee owns the Mall I Loan Documents
free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, and that are otherwise reasonably
satisfactory to H/C I Owner and Mall I Mortgagee, assign to H/C I Owner (or any designee thereof)
the Mall I Mortgage and the other Mall I Loan Documents. Said assignment shall not relieve Mall I
Owner of any of Mall I Owner’s defaults and liabilities under said loan. The Buy-Out Option
Purchase Price shall be calculated by the Mall I Mortgagee (or its servicer) three (3) Business
Days prior to the
197
date set for purchase and shall, absent manifest error, be binding upon Mall I
Mortgagee and H/C I Owner.
14.3.4.8 Mall I Owner covenants and agrees that it will cause each Mall I Mortgage to include
or cross-reference the provisions of Sections 14.3.4.6 and 14.3.4.7, and to make H/C I Owner a
third party beneficiary of such inclusion or cross-reference, but all Mall I Mortgagees shall be
bound by such provisions even if this sentence is not complied with. If any Mall I Mortgagee does
not comply with Sections 14.3.4.6 and 14.3.4.7, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies
H/C I Owner may have at law or in equity, clause (c) of the second sentence of Section 14.3.5.3
shall be deemed null and void with respect to such Mortgagee and its Mall I Mortgage and any
foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in connection therewith.
14.3.4.9 Mall I Owner shall, within five (5) Business Days after any payment made or expense
incurred by H/C I Owner in connection with the exercise of
H/C I Owner’s rights under Section 14.3.4.6, reimburse H/C I Owner for such payment or
expense.
14.3.4.10 In consideration of the rights granted to H/C I Owner under Sections 14.3.4.6,
14.3.4.7 and 14.3.4.9 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if
H/C I Owner shall exercise any of its rights under said Section 14.3.4.6, H/C I Owner hereby
covenants and agrees that, until the satisfaction in full of the applicable Mall I Loan, it shall
not, in connection with any amount owned by Mall I Owner to H/C I Owner pursuant to
Section 14.3.4.9, institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition (either by itself or in
conjunction with any other person or entity) under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise (or
join any person or entity in any such
198
petition) or otherwise invoke or cause any other person or
entity to invoke any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to or against Mall I
Owner or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or
other similar official with respect to Mall I Owner or all or any part of its property or assets or
ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of Mall I Owner. Any Mall I Mortgagee shall
be an express third party beneficiary of this Section 14.3.4.10 and shall have the right to take
any and all appropriate action at law or in equity to enforce its provisions.
14.3.4.11 Mall I Owner acknowledges that H/C I Owner and Affiliates of H/C I Owner are
businesses that are or may be subject to and exist because of privileged licenses issued by Gaming
Authorities. If Mall I Owner desires to effectuate any Phase I Mall Sale, Mall I Owner shall
require the proposed purchaser, assignee, transferee or lessee (a “Proposed Transferee”) to
disclose to Mall I Owner and H/C I Owner the names of all of its officers and directors. Unless it
is a publicly traded
corporation on a national stock exchange, the Proposed Transferee shall disclose to Mall I
Owner and H/C I Owner all direct and indirect ownership interests in the Proposed Transferee and
all lenders or sources of financing. If requested to do so by H/C I Owner, Mall I Owner shall
require a Proposed Transferee to obtain any license, qualification, clearance or the like which
shall be requested or required of any Proposed Transferee by any Gaming Authority or any regulatory
authority having jurisdiction over H/C I Owner or any Affiliate of H/C I Owner; provided,
however, that H/C I Owner shall request the same only if a Gaming Authority or any other
such authority requests or requires the same. If a Proposed Transferee fails to satisfy such
requirement or if H/C I Owner or any Affiliate of H/C I Owner is directed not to involve itself in
business with a Proposed Transferee by any
199
such authority, or if H/C I Owner shall in good faith
determine, in H/C I Owner’s good-faith judgment, that a Proposed Transferee or any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, designees or representatives, or a partner, owner, member, or
shareholder, or any lender or financial participant (a) is or might be engaged in, or is about to
be engaged in, any activity or activities, or (b) was or is involved in any relationship, either of
which could or does jeopardize H/C I Owner’s business, reputation or such licenses, or those of its
Affiliates, or if any such license is threatened to be, or is, denied, curtailed, suspended or
revoked, then Mall I Owner, at H/C I Owner’s direction, shall immediately (i) terminate any
relationship with the individual or entity which is the source of the problem, or (ii) cease the
activity creating the problem. If Mall I Owner does not comply with item (i) or (ii) above, then
H/C I Owner may require Mall I Owner to specifically perform such obligation (the parties
recognizing that damages or other remedies would be inadequate
under the circumstances). Any Phase I Mall Sale entered into in violation of this
Section 14.3.4.11 shall be deemed null and void and of no force and effect.
14.3.5 Restrictions on Phase II Mall Sales.
Mall II Owner covenants and agrees, for the benefit of H/C II Owner only, as follows:
14.3.5.1 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, but subject to the provisions of
Section 14.3.5.3 below, no Phase II Mall Sale may be consummated unless H/C II Owner is given not
less than thirty (30) days written notice of such contemplated transaction and unless H/C II Owner
consents to such transaction, which consent may be withheld in H/C II Owner’s sole and absolute
discretion; provided, however, that such consent shall not be required (but such
prior written notice shall still be required) if (x) neither the transferee nor any Affiliate
thereof is a Competitor, (y) the
200
transferee (or an Affiliate thereof) owns or manages not less than
ten million (10,000,000) square feet of retail space in the United States and (z) such Phase II
Mall Sale would not, in the good-faith judgment of H/C II Owner, jeopardize any of H/C II Owner’s
Gaming Licenses. In all events, neither Mall II Owner nor any Affiliate thereof shall ever be a
Competitor, whether as the result of a Phase II Mall Sale or otherwise, unless H/C II Owners
consents with respect thereto. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Phase II Casino Level
Master Lease, the tenant under the Phase II Casino Level Master Lease must always be Mall II Owner
or an Affiliate thereof.
14.3.5.2 Except as described in Section 14.3.5.3, H/C II Owner shall have a right of first
offer to consummate any Phase II Mall Sale in accordance with and subject to the following
procedures, and no Phase II Mall Sale shall occur except in accordance with and subject to such
procedures:
14.3.5.2.1 If Mall II Owner (which, for purposes of this Section 14.3.5, shall include any
owner of a direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interest in Mall II Owner) desires to
either (x) sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Mall II Space or Phase II Mall or any portion of
either or any such direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interests (any such asset or
interest, including the entire Mall II Space and Phase II Mall, a “Mall II Asset”), or
(y) lease all or substantially all of the Mall II Space or Phase II Mall to one Person or a group
of Affiliated Persons (any such sale, assignment, transfer or lease, a “Phase II Mall
Sale”), Mall II Owner must make a written offer to sell such Mall II Asset to H/C II Owner,
which offer must include the proposed purchase price (or proposed rental payments, in the case of
a lease) and all other material terms of the proposed transaction. Upon receipt of such notice,
H/C II Owner
201
shall have thirty (30) days in which to notify Mall II Owner that it has elected to
purchase such Mall II Asset upon the terms of the offer made to H/C II Owner.
14.3.5.2.2 In the event that H/C II Owner accepts Mall II Owner’s offer within said thirty
(30) day period, the parties shall negotiate in good-faith for the sixty (60) day period following
such acceptance the terms and provisions of a definitive binding purchase agreement (or lease
agreement, if applicable) in connection therewith. In the event that notwithstanding such good
faith negotiation, no definitive binding written purchase agreement or lease agreement is entered
into between the parties within said sixty (60) day period, Mall II Owner may then, without having
to once again comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.3.5.2, either:
14.3.5.2.2.1 Market the applicable Mall II Asset and conclude the applicable Phase II
Mall Sale for a purchase price not less
than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price offered to H/C II Owner (or for
rental payments having a present value (assuming a 6% annual discount rate) of not less
than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments offered to H/C II Owner, in the case
of a lease) and otherwise upon terms not materially less advantageous to Mall II Owner than
the terms offered to H/C II Owner, but only if such transaction is consummated, or the
definitive binding written purchase agreement or lease agreement with respect thereto is
entered into, no later than six (6) months after the expiration of said sixty (60) day
period; or
14.3.5.2.2.2 In the event Mall II Owner desires to sell such Mall II Asset for a
purchase price which is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price offered
to H/C II Owner (or for rental
202
payments having a present value (assuming a 6% annual
discount rate) of less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments offered to
H/C II Owner, in the case of a lease) or otherwise on terms materially less advantageous to
Mall II Owner than the terms offered to H/C II Owner, provide H/C II Owner (no later than
six (6) months after the expiration of said sixty (60) day period) with written notice of
the terms of the offer from a third-party that Mall II Owner intends to accept (which
notice must include a copy of the proposed definitive binding written purchase agreement or
lease agreement that Mall II Owner intends to execute). In such event, H/C II Owner shall
have ten (10) Business Days in which to notify Mall II Owner that H/C II Owner has elected
to purchase such Mall II Asset upon the terms of the offer presented to H/C II Owner and
five (5) days following the delivery of such notice to execute such a definitive written
binding purchase
agreement or lease agreement. If H/C II Owner fails to provide such notice within
such ten (10) Business Day period or thereafter fails to enter into a definitive written
binding purchase agreement or lease agreement within such five (5) day period, Mall II
Owner may, without having to once again comply with the foregoing provisions of this
Section 14.3.5.2, accept such third-party offer and consummate the applicable Phase II Mall
Sale with such third-party on terms materially consistent with such offer.
14.3.5.2.3 In the event H/C II Owner rejects an offer made by Mall II Owner pursuant to
Section 14.3.5.2.1, Mall II Owner may, without once again complying with the foregoing provisions
of this Section 14.3.5.2, consummate the applicable Phase II Mall Sale with a third party for a
purchase price greater than or equal to
203
ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price offered to
H/C II Owner (or for rental payments having a present value (assuming a 6% annual discount rate) of
not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rental payments offered to H/C II Owner, in the case
of a lease), and otherwise on terms not materially less advantageous to Mall II Owner than the
terms offered to H/C II Owner, but only if such sale is consummated, or the definitive binding
written purchase agreement or lease agreement with respect thereto is entered into, no later than
six (6) months after the date H/C II Owner rejected Mall II Owner’s offer.
14.3.5.2.4 In the event that any Phase II Mall Sale is intended to be consummated as part of a
portfolio sale of other properties and/or interests, Mall II Owner shall cause a fair and
reasonable portion of the aggregate purchase price for such portfolio sale to be allocated to such
Phase II Mall Sale for all purposes of this Section 14.3.5.2.
14.3.5.3 Mall II Owner acknowledges and confirms that subject to the next sentence, both the
provisions of Section 14.3.5.1 above, and the provisions of Section 14.3.5.2, apply with respect to
any Phase II Mall Sale, so that compliance with one set of provisions does not obviate or nullify
in any way the requirement that the other set of provisions be complied with. However, the
provisions of Section 14.3.5.1 and 14.3.5.2 above shall not apply to (a) sales or other transfers
or issuances of direct or indirect equity or beneficial ownership interests that do not, pursuant
to one transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions, exceed 66 2/3% of the
beneficial interests in Mall II Owner and that do not result in a change in the Person or Persons
that ultimately “control” Mall II Owner (as the term “control” is used in the definition of
Affiliate), (b) transfers to Affiliates, (c) any Phase II Mall Sale pursuant to a judgment of
foreclosure of a Mortgage, or any conveyance(s) of the Mall II Space and/or Phase II Mall to any
Mall II Mortgagee
204
or any Affiliate thereof in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure
transaction (any such foreclosure or deed-in-lieu thereof, “Phase II Mall Foreclosure
Sale”), and, if the purchaser or transferee in a Phase II Mall Foreclosure Sale is a Mall II
Mortgagee or any Affiliate thereof, any subsequent Phase II Mall Sales by such Mortgagee or
Affiliate or any of its direct or indirect equity holders or beneficial owners, provided that the
right of first offer shall thereafter apply (subject to clauses (a) — (e) of this sentence) to any
Phase II Mall Sales in which the seller or transferor is not any of such parties, (d) any transfers
or issuances of stock of General Growth Properties, Inc. or its corporate successor or any other
company with stock publicly traded on the American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange or a
similar stock exchange of another nation or (e) any transfers or issuances of partnership interests
in GGP Limited Partnership.
14.3.5.4 By joining in the execution of this Agreement, certain holders of direct and indirect
equity and beneficial ownership interests in Mall II Owner agree, on behalf of themselves and their
successors and assigns, to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.3.5. Each holder of such
ownership interests in Mall II Owner shall, as a condition to any sale of its interest, obtain a
written agreement from its Transferee, for the benefit of H/C II Owner, agreeing to be bound by the
provisions of Section 14.3.5, and shall deliver a copy of such written agreement to H/C II Owner.
14.3.5.5 Any Phase II Mall Sale that is made in violation of this Section 14.3.5 shall be void
ab initio.
14.3.5.6 In the event that any Mall II Mortgagee delivers a written notice of any default or
event of default under its mortgage encumbering the Mall II Space
205
(a “Mall II Mortgage”) or
that the outstanding principal under the note or notes secured by such Mall II Mortgage has become
due (whether by acceleration or for any other reason) (any such notice, a “Mall II Mortgage
Default Notice”), the Mall II Mortgagee shall, simultaneously with the delivery of such notice
to Mall II Owner, deliver a copy thereof to H/C II Owner. In such event, and so long as at the
time such notice is delivered H/C II Owner satisfies the Financial Covenant, H/C II Owner shall
have the right, but not the obligation, to make any payment or take any other action necessary to
cure any Curable Default, and the applicable Mall II Mortgagee shall be obligated to accept such
cure as if the payment was made or the action was taken by Mall II Owner, provided that
(x) H/C II Owner shall not be entitled to cure more than three (3) interest payment defaults in any
twelve (12) month period and (y) if, at any time after a Mall II Mortgage Default Notice is given
but before the applicable Curable Default is cured, the Financial Covenant is no
longer satisfied, H/C II Owner’s cure right with respect to such Curable Default shall
terminate. H/C II Owner shall have the same cure period granted to Mall II Owner under the Mall II
Mortgage and related loan documents (collectively, including the Mall II Mortgage, the “Mall II
Loan Documents”), plus (A) with respect to the payment of interest or principal (other than
accelerated principal) required by the Mall II Loan Documents, three (3) Business Days (and in all
events not less than three (3) Business Days after H/C II Owner’s receipt of the applicable Mall II
Mortgage Default Notice), (B) with respect to the payment of any other amounts under the Mall II
Loan Documents, five (5) Business Days (and in all events not less than five (5) Business Days
after H/C II Owner’s receipt of the applicable Mall II Mortgage Default Notice), and (C) with
respect to any Curable Default other than a failure to make a payment required by the Mall II Loan
Documents, and
206
provided (1) H/C II Owner delivers written notice to Mall II Mortgagee of its
intention to cure such default within five (5) Business Days after H/C II Owner’s receipt of the
applicable Mall II Mortgage Default Notice and (2) H/C II Owner is diligently proceeding to cure
such default, such additional time (but not to exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days in the
aggregate) as is reasonably necessary for H/C II Owner to take or effectuate such actions necessary
to cure such default. After any Mall II Mortgage Default Notice is given, the applicable Mortgagee
shall give H/C II Owner written notice if the default or event of default is subsequently cured
(other than by H/C II Owner) or acceleration is revoked.
14.3.5.7 In the event the entire principal sum secured by any Mall II Mortgage becomes
immediately due and payable, whether by acceleration or for any other reason, the Mall II Mortgagee
shall promptly give H/C II Owner an Acceleration
Notice, and so long as at the time such notice is given H/C II Owner satisfies the Financial
Covenant, H/C II Owner shall have a Buy-Out Option to purchase Mall II Mortgagee’s interest in the
Mall II Loan Documents and the loan evidenced thereby (the “Mall II Loan”) at a price equal
to the Buy-Out Option Purchase Price (as defined below), provided that H/C II Owner shall not have
such option unless (x) it gives written notice to Mall II Mortgagee of its election to exercise
such option no later than sixty (60) days after the Acceleration Notice was given and (y) at the
time H/C II Owner gives such notice it satisfies the Financial Covenant. If H/C II Owner elects to
exercise such option, H/C II Owner shall be obligated to purchase, and Mall II Mortgagee shall be
obligated to sell, the Mall II Loan and the Mall II Loan Documents for the Buy-Out Option Purchase
Price on a date not less than five (5) Business Days, nor more than ten (10) Business Days, after
207
H/C II Owner delivers its written notice to Mall II Mortgagee of such election, such date to be
selected by Mall II Mortgagee). Upon payment by H/C II Owner to Mall II Mortgagee of the Buy-Out
Option Purchase Price on the applicable date, the Mall II Mortgagee shall, pursuant to assignment
documents that contain no representations or warranties other than a representation that the
Mall II Mortgagee owns the Mall II Loan Documents free and clear of all liens, claims and
encumbrances, and that are otherwise reasonably satisfactory to H/C II Owner and Mall II Mortgagee,
assign to H/C II Owner (or any designee thereof) the Mall II Mortgage and the other Mall II Loan
Documents. Said assignment shall not relieve Mall II Owner of any of Mall II Owner’s defaults and
liabilities under said loan. The Buy-Out Option Purchase Price shall be calculated by the Mall II
Mortgagee (or its servicer) three (3) Business Days prior to the date set for purchase and shall,
absent manifest error, be binding upon Mall II Mortgagee and H/C II Owner.
14.3.5.8 Mall II Owner covenants and agrees that it will cause each Mall II Mortgage to
include or cross-reference the provisions of Sections 14.3.5.6 and 14.3.5.7, and to make H/C II
Owner a third party beneficiary of such inclusion or cross-reference, but all Mall II Mortgagees
shall be bound by such provisions even if this sentence is not complied with. If any Mall II
Mortgagee does not comply with Sections 14.3.5.6 and 14.3.5.7, then, in addition to any other
rights and remedies H/C II Owner may have at law or in equity, clause (c) of the second sentence of
Section 14.3.5.3 shall be deemed null and void with respect to such Mortgagee and its Mall II
Mortgage and any foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in connection therewith.
14.3.5.9 Mall II Owner shall, within five (5) Business Days after any payment made or expense
incurred by H/C II Owner in connection with the exercise of
208
H/C II Owner’s rights under
Section 14.3.5.6, reimburse H/C II Owner for such payment or expense.
14.3.5.10 In consideration of the rights granted to H/C II Owner under Sections 14.3.5.6,
14.3.5.7and 14.3.5.9 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if
H/C II Owner shall exercise any of its rights under said Section 14.3.5.6, H/C II Owner hereby
covenants and agrees that, until the satisfaction in full of the applicable Mall II Loan, it shall
not, in connection with any amount owned by Mall II Owner to H/C II Owner pursuant to
Section 14.3.5.9, institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition (either by itself or in
conjunction with any other person or entity) under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise (or
join any person or entity in any such petition) or otherwise invoke or cause any other person or
entity to invoke any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to or against
Mall II Owner or
seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other
similar official with respect to Mall II Owner or all or any part of its property or assets or
ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of Mall II Owner. Any Mall II Mortgagee
shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Section 14.3.5.10 and shall have the right to
take any and all appropriate action at law or in equity to enforce its provisions.
14.3.5.11 Mall II Owner acknowledges that H/C II Owner and Affiliates of H/C II Owner are
businesses that are or may be subject to and exist because of privileged licenses issued by Gaming
Authorities. If Mall II Owner desires to effectuate any Phase II Mall Sale, Mall II Owner shall
require the Proposed Transferee to disclose to Mall II Owner and H/C II Owner the names of all of
its officers and directors. Unless it is
209
a publicly traded corporation on a national stock
exchange, the Proposed Transferee shall disclose to Mall II Owner and H/C II Owner all direct and
indirect ownership interests in the Proposed Transferee and all lenders or sources of financing.
If requested to do so by H/C II Owner, Mall II Owner shall require a Proposed Transferee to obtain
any license, qualification, clearance or the like which shall be requested or required of any
Proposed Transferee by any Gaming Authority or any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over
H/C II Owner or any Affiliate of H/C II Owner; provided, however, that H/C II Owner
shall request the same only if a Gaming Authority or any other such authority requests or requires
the same. If a Proposed Transferee fails to satisfy such requirement or if H/C II Owner or any
Affiliate of H/C II Owner is directed not to involve itself in business with a Proposed Transferee
by any such authority, or if H/C II Owner shall in good faith determine, in H/C II Owner’s
good-faith judgment, that a Proposed Transferee or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, designees or representatives, or a partner, owner,
member, or shareholder, or any lender or financial participant (a) is or might be engaged in, or is
about to be engaged in, any activity or activities, or (b) was or is involved in any relationship,
either of which could or does jeopardize H/C II Owner’s business, reputation or such licenses, or
those of its Affiliates, or if any such license is threatened to be, or is, denied, curtailed,
suspended or revoked, then Mall II Owner, at H/C II Owner’s direction, shall immediately
(i) terminate any relationship with the individual or entity which is the source of the problem, or
(ii) cease the activity creating the problem. If Mall II Owner does not comply with item (i) or
(ii) above, then H/C II Owner may require Mall II Owner to specifically perform such obligation
(the parties recognizing that damages or other remedies would be inadequate under the
circumstances). Any Phase II Mall Sale entered
210
into in violation of this Section 14.3.5.11 shall
be deemed null and void and of no force and effect.
Section 14.4 Identity of Mall I Owner and its Officers and Directors; Identity of Mall II
Owner and its Officers and Directors.
14.4.1 Mall I Owner acknowledges that H/C I Owner and Affiliates of H/C I Owner are businesses
that are or may be subject to and exist because of privileged licenses issued by Gaming
Authorities. Mall I Owner shall promptly notify H/C I Owner of the appointment of any individual
as an officer, director or senior employee of Mall I Owner who does not hold such position as of
the date hereof (each a “New Mall I Individual”). If requested to do so by H/C I Owner,
Mall I Owner shall require any New Mall I Individual or other officer, director, employee, agent,
designee or representative, or a partner, owner, member, or shareholder, or any lender or financial
participant of Mall I
Owner to obtain any license, qualification, clearance or the like which shall be requested or
required of any such individual by any Gaming Authority or any regulatory authority having
jurisdiction over H/C I Owner or any Affiliate of H/C I Owner. If any New Mall I Individual or
other officer, director, employee, agent, designee or representative, or a partner, owner, member,
or shareholder, or any lender or financial participant of Mall I Owner fails to satisfy such
requirement or if H/C I Owner or any Affiliate of H/C I Owner is directed not to involve itself in
business with such individual by any such authority, or if H/C I Owner shall in good faith
determine, in H/C I Owner’s good-faith judgment, that such individual (a) is or might be engaged
in, or is about to be engaged in, any activity or activities, or (b) was or is involved in any
relationship, either of which could or does jeopardize H/C I Owner’s business, reputation or such
licenses, or those of its Affiliates, or
211
if any such license is threatened to be, or is, denied,
curtailed, suspended or revoked, then Mall I Owner, at H/C I Owner’s direction, shall immediately
(i) terminate any relationship with the individual or entity which is the source of the problem, or
(ii) cease the activity creating the problem. If Mall I Owner does not comply with item (i) or
(ii) above, then H/C I Owner may require Mall I Owner to specifically perform such obligation (the
parties recognizing that damages or other remedies would be inadequate under the circumstances).
Any appointment of any New Mall I Individual in violation of this Section 14.3.5.11 shall be
deemed null and void and of no force and effect.
14.4.2 Mall II Owner acknowledges that H/C II Owner and Affiliates of H/C II Owner are
businesses that are or may be subject to and exist because of privileged licenses issued by Gaming
Authorities. Mall II Owner shall promptly notify H/C II Owner of the appointment of any individual
as an officer, director or senior employee of Mall II
Owner who does not hold such position as of the date hereof (each a “New Mall II
Individual”). If requested to do so by H/C II Owner, Mall II Owner shall require any New
Mall II Individual or other officer, director, employee, agent, designee or representative, or a
partner, owner, member, or shareholder, or any lender or financial participant of Mall II Owner to
obtain any license, qualification, clearance or the like which shall be requested or required of
any such individual by any Gaming Authority or any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over
H/C II Owner or any Affiliate of H/C II Owner. If any New Mall II Individual or other officer,
director, employee, agent, designee or representative, or a partner, owner, member, or shareholder,
or any lender or financial participant of Mall II Owner fails to satisfy such requirement or if
H/C II Owner or any Affiliate of H/C II Owner is directed not to involve itself in business with
such individual by any such
212
authority, or if H/C II Owner shall in good faith determine, in H/C II
Owner’s good-faith judgment, that such individual (a) is or might be engaged in, or is about to be
engaged in, any activity or activities, or (b) was or is involved in any relationship, either of
which could or does jeopardize H/C II Owner’s business, reputation or such licenses, or those of
its Affiliates, or if any such license is threatened to be, or is, denied, curtailed, suspended or
revoked, then Mall II Owner, at H/C II Owner’s direction, shall immediately (i) terminate any
relationship with the individual or entity which is the source of the problem, or (ii) cease the
activity creating the problem. If Mall II Owner does not comply with item (i) or (ii) above, then
H/C II Owner may require Mall II Owner to specifically perform such obligation (the parties
recognizing that damages or other remedies would be inadequate under the circumstances). Any
appointment of any New Mall II Individual in
violation of this Section 14.3.5.11 shall be deemed null and void and of no force and effect.
14.4.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the second and third sentences of
Section 14.3.4.11 or the second and third sentences of Section 14.3.5.11, Mall I Owner or Mall II
Owner, as the case may be, need only use commercially reasonable efforts (or, if H/C I Owner and/or
H/C II Owner agree to reimburse Mall I Owner or Mall II Owner, as the case may be, for any
out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection therewith, best efforts), upon the request of H/C I
Owner or H/C II Owner, to obtain and disclose the names of the directors and officers, all direct
and indirect ownership interests and all lenders or sources of financing of any Proposed Transferee
that is acquiring through the public markets less than a controlling interest in General Growth
Properties, Inc. or in GGP Limited Partnership. For the purpose of this Section 14.4.3, a
213
“controlling interest” in a Person shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to
direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. For clarity, this Section 14.4.3 shall
not vary any of the terms of Section 14.3.4.11 or Section 14.3.5.11 other than the second and third
sentences thereof.
Section 14.5 Mortgages.
14.5.1 Each Party shall have the right to collaterally assign and encumber this Agreement as
security to one or more of its Mortgagees holding a Mortgage so long as such Mortgagee, in writing
(i) subordinates such Mortgage and the lien thereof to this Agreement and to the rights, interests,
obligations, duties, conditions, covenants and agreements granted pursuant to this Agreement or
otherwise contained herein (whether
such Mortgage is recorded on or after the date hereof) and (ii) agrees to be bound by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement upon its taking title to such property (subject to the
provisions of Section 14.6 below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, regardless of whether any
Mortgagee shall receive a collateral assignment of this Agreement, each Mortgage (whether recorded
on or after the date hereof) and the lien thereof shall automatically be subject and subordinate to
this Agreement and to the rights, interests, obligations, duties, conditions, covenants and
agreements granted pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise contained herein.
14.5.2 Each Party agrees for the benefit of the other Parties and their respective Mortgagees,
that wherever a Party has a right to grant or withhold its consent or approval under this
Agreement, or otherwise has discretion to act or refrain from acting, such Party shall only grant
its consent or approval or act or refrain from acting, as the case
214
may be, in such a manner as a
Commercially Reasonable Owner would do and so long as the same is not likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
14.5.3 In any instance (other than Section 11.2.2) where a Mortgagee’s consent is required
under this Agreement and such Mortgagee shall be a trustee for publicly held debt under an
indenture, such Mortgagee shall be deemed to have given its consent upon delivery to such trustee
of a written statement from an Independent Expert certifying that the matter proposed for consent
would be consented to by a Commercially Reasonable Owner of the Lot(s) encumbered in favor of said
Mortgagee and the same is not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided,
however, that the foregoing consent procedure shall not be construed as a means for
satisfying any consents or approvals required to be obtained with respect to matters under the
terms of the indenture, security
documents and other loan documents pertaining to any such Mortgagee, it being understood that
said consent or approval requirements must be satisfied in accordance with their terms.
Section 14.6 Transferee Liability.
14.6.1 Subject to the further provisions of this Section 14.6, any assignee or transferee (in
either case, a “Transferee”) of all or any portion of the Phase I Land and/or any buildings
or other improvements thereon, the Mall I Space and/or any buildings or other improvements thereon,
the Phase II Land and/or any buildings or other improvements thereon, the Mall II Space and/or any
buildings or other improvements thereon, or the SECC Land and/or any buildings or other
improvements thereon, including, without limitation, any transferee by way of a foreclosure sale or
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, shall be deemed to have assumed the obligations and liabilities
hereunder of
215
the Party from whom such Transferee received its interest in such portion of the
Phase I Land, Mall I Space, the Phase II Land, the Mall II Space or the SECC Land or such buildings
or other improvements (to the extent such obligations or liabilities relate to such portion);
provided that, without limiting the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of written request
therefor by the non-transferring Party hereto, the Transferee shall execute a writing, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to such Transferee and to such non-transferring Party, confirming
such assumption. In the event of such a transfer or assignment, the transferring Party (the
“Transferor”) shall be released from any obligations arising after the effective date of
the transfer or assignment (but not any obligations of the Transferor that are outstanding under
this Agreement as of the effective date of the transfer or assignment, and the Transferor and the
Transferee shall be jointly and severally liable
with respect to such obligations). Each Transferor shall give the other Party hereto at least
five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of the transfer or assignment in question and shall
furnish a fully-executed copy of the instrument of transfer or assignment, within five (5) Business
Days of execution thereof, to the other Party hereto.
14.6.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a transfer to any Mortgagee (or its
designee) resulting from (i) judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of the Mortgage held by such
Mortgagee or (ii) the grant of a deed-in-lieu of such foreclosure, then, in either event, (x) the
Transferor shall be released from any obligations arising after the effective date of the transfer;
provided, however, that the Transferor shall not be released from any obligations
which remain outstanding on the date of such transfer and (y) such Mortgagee (or its designee)
shall not be liable for any non-monetary defaults of the Transferor arising under this Agreement
prior to the effective date of the transfer that
216
are not susceptible to cure by the Transferee
after obtaining possession of the Lot in question.
Section 14.7 As-Built Survey. Each Party, upon the request of any other Party, shall
enter into one or more separate agreements in recordable form setting forth in legally sufficient
detail the easements, rights-of-way and other rights and interests provided for in, or granted (or
required to be granted) pursuant to, this Agreement. In addition, within ninety (90) days
following completion of construction of each of the Palazzo and the Phase II Automobile Parking
Area, H/C II Owner shall, at its sole cost and expense, have an as-built survey prepared by a
reputable licensed surveyor of the applicable portion of the Phase II Land, together with all
improvements constructed thereon and a copy of such survey will be sent to each Owner and to each
Owner’s Mortgagees.
Section 14.8 Estoppel Certificates. Each Party shall at any time and from time to
time during the Term (but not more often than once in each calendar quarter), within thirty (30)
days after request by any other Party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to such other Party or to
any existing or prospective purchaser, Mortgagee or lessee designated by such other Party, a
certificate stating: (a) that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect, or if
there has been a modification or modifications, that this Agreement is in full force and effect, as
modified, and identifying the modification agreement or agreements; (b) whether or not there is any
existing default hereunder by either Party in the payment of any sum of money owing to the Party
executing such certificate, whether or not there is any existing default by either Party with
respect to which a notice of default has been given or received by the Party executing such
certificate (and, to the best of the knowledge of the Party executing such certificate, whether any
other default exists under this Agreement),
217
and if there is any such default, specifying the nature
and extent thereof; (c) whether or not there are any outstanding claims, set-offs, defenses or
counterclaims which a Party has asserted against the other Party by notice to the other Party; and
(d) such other matters as may be reasonably requested. The Parties acknowledge and agree that as
of the date hereof, there is no existing default hereunder by Mall II Owner.
Section 14.9 Indemnification. Each of the Parties shall at all times indemnify and
hold harmless each of the other Parties, their Mortgagees, the Trustee and their respective
partners, principals, officers, directors, shareholders and employees, from and against any and all
losses, liabilities, expenses, costs, demands, claims and judgments, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or suffered by any such indemnified Party and
arising from or as a result of the death of, or any accident,
injury, loss or damage whatsoever caused to any persons or property (a) as shall occur on the
land or in any buildings or other improvements owned by such indemnifying Party, (b) as shall occur
due to the entry by such indemnifying Party or its Permittees onto the land or buildings owned by
such indemnified Party, (c) as shall occur due to a violation of this Agreement on the part of the
indemnifying Party, (d) as shall occur due to the naming of such other Party in a lawsuit relating
to construction performed by or on behalf of the indemnifying Party or (e) in connection with the
exercise of any rights, licenses or interests granted to, or easements used by such indemnifying
Party hereunder, except, in each case, to the extent such claims (i) result from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified Party or any of its Permittees or any violation
of this Agreement on the part of the indemnified Party, (ii) are covered by any insurance referred
to in Article 10 hereof that is obtained by any Party or would have been covered, if any other
Party had obtained the
218
same, by any such insurance that any other Party is required thereunder to
obtain or to the extent a Party is actually covered by any other insurance or (iii) result from the
exercise of any rights or interests granted to, or easements used by, any other Party hereunder.
In accordance with, but without limiting, the foregoing, H/C II Owner agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each of the other Owners, their Mortgagees, the Trustee and their respective partners,
principals, officers, directors, shareholders and employees, from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, expenses, costs, demands, claims and judgments, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred or suffered by any such indemnified Party and
arising from or as a result of the death of, or any accident, injury, loss or damage whatsoever
caused to any persons or property as may occur in connection with the construction of the Palazzo,
except, in each case, to the extent
such claims (i) result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified
Party or any of its Permittees or any violation of this Agreement on the part of the indemnified
Party, (ii) are caused by construction, alterations or “fit-out” work performed by Mall II Buyer or
its Permittees on or about the Phase II Land during the construction of the Palazzo, in which event
Mall II Owner shall be the indemnifying party under this sentence or (iii) are covered by any
insurance referred to in Article 10 hereof that is obtained by any Party or would have been
covered, if any other Party had obtained the same, by any such insurance that any other Party is
required thereunder to obtain or to the extent a Party is actually covered by any other insurance.
219
Section 14.10 Rights to Cure Default; Payment of Default and Lien.
14.10.1 In the event that any Party (a “Defaulting Party”) shall fail to fully,
faithfully and punctually perform or cause to be performed any obligation on the part of such
Defaulting Party hereunder:
14.10.1.1 if such default shall continue for ten (10) days after notice thereof (except in the
event of an emergency where no notice shall be required) from any non-Defaulting Party affected by
such default to the Defaulting Party, such non-Defaulting Party shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to (x) enter upon the property owned or leased by the Defaulting Party to the extent
reasonably required to perform or cause to be performed the obligations of the Defaulting Party
with respect to which the Defaulting Party is in default, (y) perform or cause to be performed such
obligations and (z) be reimbursed by such Defaulting Party, upon demand by such non-Defaulting
Party, for the cost thereof, together with simple interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the
date of demand to the date of reimbursement by the Defaulting Party; provided,
however, that if
such default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such ten (10) day
period and cannot be cured solely by the payment of money and the Defaulting Party shall have
commenced to cure such default within such ten (10) day period and thereafter diligently and
expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such ten (10) day period shall be extended to the extent
necessary so to cure such default (but in no event beyond sixty (60) days in total (including the
original ten (10) day period)); and
14.10.1.2 if such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after notice from such
non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party, then such non-Defaulting Party shall have all rights
and remedies available at law or in equity (other than any right to
220
terminate this Agreement);
provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but cannot
reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and the Defaulting Party shall have
commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and
expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended to the
extent necessary so to cure such default (but in no event beyond one hundred eighty (180) days in
total (including the original thirty (30) day period)); provided further, that any default
that can be cured solely by the payment of money shall be cured within ten (10) days after notice
from such non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party.
14.10.2 If pursuant to Section 14.10.1, a Party is compelled or elects to pay any sum of money
or do any acts which require the payment of money by reason of another Party’s failure or inability
to perform any of the terms and provisions in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party,
the Defaulting Party shall promptly upon demand, reimburse the paying Party for such sums, and all
such sums shall bear simple
interest at the Interest Rate from the date of demand for reimbursement until the date of such
reimbursement. Any other sums payable by any Party to any other Party pursuant to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement that shall not be paid when due shall bear simple interest at the
Interest Rate from the due date to the date of payment thereof. All such unpaid sums shall
constitute a valid and enforceable lien on the Defaulting Party’s Lot and each Party hereby
consents to the filing by any other Party of any and all documentation necessary or desirable to
perfect and/or secure such lien. No action shall be brought to foreclose such lien unless
(x) thirty (30) days’ notice of claim of lien is given to the Defaulting Party, (y) such notice and
opportunity to cure is given to the holder of any
221
Mortgage encumbering the Defaulting Party’s Lot
as is required under Section 14.15.3, and (z) no such Person shall cure the default in question
within the applicable cure period. Reasonable attorneys’ fees and charges in connection with
collection of the debt secured by such lien or foreclosure thereof shall be paid by the Party
against whom such action is brought and secured by such lien. Such lien shall be superior to any
other lien and encumbrance on the affected Lot created or arising on or after the date of the
Original REA, including, without limitation, the lien of any Mortgage. The liens provided for in
this Section 14.10 shall only be effective when filed for record by the non-Defaulting Party as a
claim of lien against the defaulting Party in the Recorder’s Office, signed and acknowledged, which
claim of lien shall contain at least:
14.10.2.1 An itemized statement of all amounts due and payable pursuant hereto;

remainder of this
Agreement shall continue, and the remainder of the obligations hereunder shall remain binding, from
the Commencement Date until the Expiration Date. No Party shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement as a result of any default or alleged default of any other Party, but such limitation

at law or in equity by reason of any breach of this Agreement.

at the expense of such other Party at any time from time to time, agrees to promptly execute,
acknowledge where appropriate and deliver such additional instruments and documents, in recordable
form if appropriate, and to take such other action, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by

and such Defaulting Party shall fail to cure or commence to cure such default (and such default

Section 14.16 Disputes/Independent Expert. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, in the event there is a dispute that this Agreement
provides will be resolved by an Independent Expert among any of the Parties (the
“Disputing Parties”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the Disputing Parties
cannot, with respect to any such dispute, resolve such dispute within sixty (60) days, then the
matter(s) in question shall be resolved in accordance with the further provisions of this Section.
In the event of any such disagreement, the Disputing Parties shall promptly notify the Independent
Expert (as defined below) of such disagreement and of their desire that such disagreement be
resolved by the Independent Expert. The Independent Expert shall be instructed to render its
decision within thirty (30) days (or any shorter time reasonably agreed to by the Disputing
Parties) after such notification. Each of the Disputing Parties shall be entitled to present
evidence and arguments to the Independent Expert, which evidence and arguments may include the
relevant provisions hereof. During the pendency of such dispute-resolution procedure, the
Disputing Parties shall continue their performance under this Agreement, including with respect to
the matter that is the subject of such procedure. The determination of the Independent Expert
acting as above provided (i) shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and (ii) shall in no
event modify, amend or supplement this Agreement in any manner. The Independent Expert shall be
required to give written notice to the Disputing Parties stating its determination, and shall
furnish to each Party a signed copy of such determination. Each of the Disputing Parties
229
shall pay
its proportionate share of the fees and expenses of the Independent Expert and all other expenses
of the above-described dispute resolution procedure (not including the attorneys’ fees, witness

reputable and independent Person with experience in commercial real estate insurance; and (d) with
respect to any other dispute, a licensed, reputable and independent certified public accountant, in

to any Person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of
this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be
affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
Section 14.18 No Shared Ownership. The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this
Agreement is intended solely to regulate the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto and to
impose the easements and restrictions upon the property specifically
set forth herein, and except as set forth herein, each Party retains full ownership and control over its
own property.
Section 14.19 Headings. The article and section headings are inserted for convenience
only and shall not affect construction of this Agreement.

14.21.1 In the event of any violation or threatened violation by any Person of any of the
terms, restrictions, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, any Party hereto shall have the

respective successors and assigns shall not seek to terminate the right of Mall II Owner and its
Affiliates to use The Shoppes at The Palazzo Name or The Shoppes at The Palazzo Logo in any
injunction proceeding. The restriction described in the proviso clause of the preceding sentence
shall not be deemed to prevent H/C II Owner, its Affiliates or their respective successors and
assigns from seeking to prohibit the unauthorized use of The Shoppes at The Palazzo Name or The
Shoppes at The Palazzo Logo in any injunctive proceeding; provided, however, that H/C II Owner, its
Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns shall not have the right to seek an
injunction to prohibit Mall II Owner or its Affiliates from using the name “The Shoppes at The
Palazzo”
in connection with the operation and marketing of the Phase II Mall so long as such use is
consistent with the style guidelines described in Exhibit R-2 attached hereto.
14.21.2 In the event of any violation or threatened violation by any Person of any of the
terms, restrictions, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, any Party hereto shall, in
addition to the right set forth in Section 14.21.1 above, have the right to all other remedies
available at law or in equity, including, with respect to a violation or threatened violation of
Section 3.3 or Section 14.3, the right to specific performance.
Section 14.22 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT.
232
Section 14.23 No Waiver. No delay or omission by any Party in exercising any right or
power accruing upon any default, non-compliance or failure of performance of any of the provisions
of this Agreement by any other Party shall be construed to be a waiver thereof. A waiver by any
Party of any of the obligations of any Party shall not be construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent breach of any other term, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement.
Section 14.24 Pronouns. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether in the
masculine, feminine or neuter gender, shall be deemed to include, and to refer also to, all other
genders; all references in the singular shall be deemed to include, and to refer also to, the
plural, and vice versa.
Section 14.25 Construction. The word “in” with respect to an easement granted
“in” a particular parcel of land or a portion thereof shall mean, as the context may require,
“in,” “to,” “on,” “over,” “through,” “over,” “upon,” “across,” and “under,” or any one or more
of the foregoing.
Section 14.26 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in
accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada.

Clark County, Nevada, with the costs of such recording to be shared equally by the Parties hereto.
233
Section 14.29 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding on the Parties
hereto and inure to the benefit of their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and
assigns.
Section 14.30 Binding and Enforceable Agreements; Independent Obligations.
14.30.1 This Agreement is and is intended to be a fully binding and enforceable contract
between the Parties notwithstanding that certain Parties are currently indirectly owned by the same
principal. Each Party expressly acknowledges that certain third parties, including the separate
creditors of each Party, are relying upon (i) the binding and enforceable nature hereof by each
Party against the others and (ii) the separate assets and liabilities of each Party. Each Party
therefore agrees not to challenge or seek to set aside this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby (whether in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise) based upon
any assertion that such transactions do
not contain arm’s-length terms or upon any direct or indirect common ownership of the Parties.
14.30.2 All obligations of any Party under this Agreement constitute independent obligations
of such Party and (except where expressly stated to be conditions) are not conditioned in any way
on performance by any other Party. Accordingly, the breach by any Party under this Agreement shall
not excuse performance by any other Party, except where this Agreement expressly states that one
Party’s performance is conditioned upon performance by another Party. Nothing in the preceding two
sentences shall limit any right of any Party to recover damages or to obtain equitable relief on
account of any other Party’s breach of this Agreement. All Parties acknowledge that every Party
will be making a substantial monetary investment in reliance on the terms of this
234
Agreement and the
independent obligations undertaken by each Party pursuant to this Agreement. Without this
Agreement, the Parties would not be able to achieve a coordinated development of the real property
burdened by this Agreement, which coordinated development is intended and expected to produce
substantial benefits for all Parties. All Parties acknowledge that it would be inequitable for any
Party to be excused from any obligations under this Agreement while retaining its interest in the
property encumbered (and benefited) by this Agreement.
14.30.3 Funds Held by Trustee. Whenever Trustee is holding funds pursuant to this
Agreement, such funds shall be held in a segregated interest bearing account for the benefit of the
applicable Owners and the applicable Mortgagees.
Section 14.31 Shared Costs. Wherever it is contemplated in this Agreement that Owners
will share costs, the Owner who contracts for or incurs such costs on behalf of all
such Owners shall do so only pursuant to arms-length agreements at market rates;
provided that the foregoing shall not apply to an Owner who incurs expense to cure the
default of another Owner.
Section 14.32 No Duplication of Charges. Notwithstanding the fact that a fee, expense
or other charge may be referenced more than once in this Agreement, no Party shall be required to
pay such fee, expense or other charge more than once.
Section 14.33 Section References. Wherever the word “Section” appears with no
reference to a corresponding “Article”, the referenced Section shall be construed to be within the
Article wherein such reference is made.
Section 14.34 Modifications Requested by Mortgagees. If any actual or prospective
Mortgagee requests any modification of this Agreement, then the Owners
235
shall, at the request of
the Owner whose Mortgagee is requesting such modification, promptly execute and deliver such
modification as such actual or prospective Mortgagee shall require, provided that such modification
does not affect the rights of any of the other Owners (other than to a de minimis extent), increase
the obligations of any of the other Owners hereunder (other than to a de minimis extent) or violate
any term of any other Owner’s Mortgages.
Section 14.35 Notice to Clark County Building Department. The Parties acknowledge and
agree this Agreement allows the Lots to be in compliance with certain Legal Requirements,
including, without limitations, building code requirements of Clark County. Should this Agreement
be terminated or modified without the written concurrence of the Clark County Building Division of
the Department of Development Services (the “Building Department”) verifying that each Lot
will remain or be in compliance with
building code requirements, the Building Department could prohibit continued operation of the
business of a Party until compliance with all Legal Requirements. Although Clark County is not a
Party, each Party covenants and agrees to give notice to Clark County in the manner provided herein
prior to any modification or termination of this Agreement.
Section 14.36 Other Agreements. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to constitute a
waiver of any rights and obligations contained in the Phase II Mall Agreement or in that certain
Joint Use and Operating Agreement dated February 14, 2005 between H/C I Owner and Mall I Owner, as
the same may hereafter be amended, both of which remain in full force and effect. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement is intended to vary the terms of
Section 2 of Article I of such Joint Use and
236
Operating Agreement, and this Agreement shall be included within the definition of
“Transactional Documents” (as defined therein).
ARTICLE 15

between the Parties or arising from the interpretation or application of any Article or Section,
and any disputes in this Agreement which by specific provisions are made subject to arbitration
shall be resolved by arbitration, as provided herein; provided,
however, that any Party hereto may seek prohibitory injunctive relief without first
submitting a controversy to arbitration.
Section 15.2 Arbitration Procedures
.
15.2.1 If the Parties (the “Arbitrating Parties”) that are required to agree on an
arbitrable dispute cannot reach an agreement within thirty (30) days after notice of an arbitrable
dispute is given by any Arbitrating Party to the other Party or Parties, then any Arbitrating Party
may at any time after the end of said thirty (30) day period refer the dispute to arbitration by
notifying any other Arbitrating Party thereof, and the Arbitrating Parties agree to cooperate in
obtaining such arbitration.
15.2.2 Each Arbitrating Party shall within twenty (20) days of its receipt of such
notification designate one Person, as hereinafter provided, to represent it as an arbitrator. The
arbitrators so appointed by the Arbitrating Parties shall together designate one or two additional

appointment of all additional arbitrators under this Section shall be in writing and shall be
submitted to the Arbitrating Parties within ten (10) days following the selection of the last
arbitrator selected by the Arbitrating Parties. Any
237
Person designated as an arbitrator shall be

(i) not be affiliated with any Owner (or any Affiliate of any Owner) or any Mortgagee (or any
affiliate of any Mortgagee) and (ii) have at least ten (10) years of relevant experience and
expertise with respect to large commercial real estate projects in Las Vegas, Nevada and/or Clark
County, Nevada. If the dispute to be arbitrated deals with construction, the arbitrator so
appointed shall be experienced and
knowledgeable in the construction industry as it relates to the nature of the structure to
which such arbitration applies. Similarly, any arbitrator appointed in an architectural dispute
shall be qualified as respects architecture as it relates to the nature of the structure to which
such arbitration applies.
15.2.3 The arbitrators shall meet or otherwise confer as deemed necessary by the arbitrators
to resolve the dispute and a decision of a majority of the arbitrators will be binding upon the
Arbitrating Parties. The decision of the arbitrators shall be in writing and shall be made as
promptly as possible after the designation of the last additional arbitrator, but in no event later
than thirty (30) days from the date of the designation of the last additional arbitrator. A copy
of the decision of the arbitrators shall be signed by at least a majority of the arbitrators and
given to each Arbitrating Party and its Mortgagee in the manner provided in Section 14.15 of this
Agreement for the giving of notice.
15.2.4 For each arbitrable dispute the cost and expense of the arbitrators and arbitration
proceeding (except for an Arbitrating Party’s attorney’s fees) shall be paid and shared by the
Arbitrating Parties, unless the arbitrators assess such cost and expense unequally between the
Arbitrating Parties.
238
15.2.5 The decision of the arbitrators (i) may be entered as a judgment in a court of
competent jurisdiction and (ii) shall in no event modify, amend or supplement this Agreement in any
manner. All arbitration conducted under this Article 15 shall be in accordance with the rules of
the American Arbitration Association, to the extent such rules do not conflict with the procedures
herein set forth. To the extent permitted by law, compliance with this Article 15 is a condition
precedent to the commencement by any
Party of a judicial proceeding arising out of a dispute which is subject to arbitration
hereunder.
15.2.6 The holder of a Mortgage may participate in any arbitration proceedings in conjunction
with the Party upon whose Lot it has a Mortgage.

NOTES: |
|
|
|
* |
|
Whenever any definite amount (subject to CPI Adjustment or any other adjustment) is set forth on
this chart as a payment for a certain category of expenses, such amount (adjusted for CPI or as
otherwise adjusted) shall be due and payable without regard to the amount actually incurred by
H/C I Owner or H/C II Owner, as the case may be, in respect of that category of expenses (and thus,
no Supporting Documentation pursuant to Section 5.1.3.5 shall be required to be provided in
connection therewith). |
|
** |
|
All specified annual amounts in Schedule II shall be appropriately pro-rated for any partial
year, as applicable (except for purposes of calculating future CPI Adjustments). |
|
*** |
|
“CPI Adjustment,” as used on this Schedule II, shall be calculated as follows: Each
specified dollar amount that is subject to CPI Adjustment shall be adjusted as of the first day of
each Accounting Period, beginning with the 2009 Accounting Period, by multiplying such dollar
amount (as it may have previously been adjusted pursuant to this sentence) by the percentage that
is the sum of (x) one hundred percent (100%), plus (y) one hundred percent (100%) of the
CPI Increase (as defined in the following sentence); provided, however, that no
such adjustment shall result in any dollar amount being less than the amount set forth on
Schedule II. “CPI Increase” shall mean the percentage increase or decrease, if any, that
has occurred in the CPI from the calendar month which is sixteen months prior to the calendar month
in which the applicable Accounting Period begins to the calendar month which is four months prior
to the calendar month in which the applicable Accounting Period begins. (For example, if a CPI
Adjustment is being calculated for the Accounting Period that begins January 1, 2009, the CPI
Increase would be the percentage increase that has occurred in the CPI from September, 2007 to
September, 2008). As so adjusted, such amount will be utilized until the next CPI Adjustment is
calculated as of the first day of the next Accounting Period. “CPI” shall mean the
Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the
United States Department of Labor, U.S. City Average, All Items 1982-1984=100, or any successor
thereto appropriately adjusted. If the Consumer Price Index ceases to be published, and there is
no successor thereto, such other index as the Owners reasonably agree upon (or, if they cannot so
agree, such other index as the Independent Expert shall determine in accordance with
Section 14.16), as appropriately adjusted, shall be substituted for the Consumer Price Index. |

SCHEDULE III
Parking Rules and Regulations
1. Persons using either the Phase I Automobile Parking Area or the Phase II Automobile Parking
Area, as the case may be, for parking (each a “User”) pursuant to the easement created
under the Fourth Amended and Restated Reciprocal Easement, Use and Operating Agreement to which
these rules and regulations are attached (the “REA”: capitalized terms used herein without
definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the REA) shall comply with any parking
identification system established by H/C I Owner with respect to the Phase I Automobile Parking
Area or H/C II Owner with respect to the Phase II Automobile Parking Area (each, an “Owner of
the Parking Structure Site”), as the case may be, or its parking operator; provided
that in no event shall such parking identification system deprive any Owner of its Minimum Parking
Standards. Such a system may include the validation of visitor parking, at the validation rate
applicable to visitor parking from time to time as set by the Owner of the Parking Structure Site
or its parking operator in accordance with the provisions of the REA. Parking stickers, parking
cards, or other identification devices supplied by the Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall
remain the property of the Owner of the Parking Structure Site. Such devices must be displayed as
requested and may not be mutilated in any manner. Each User shall pay a reasonable deposit to the
Owner of the Parking Structure Site or its parking operator for each such device issued to it.
Such deposit shall be paid at the time the device is issued and shall be forfeited if the device is
lost. Such deposit shall be returned without interest at the time the User holding the device
ceases to utilize the
288
Parking Structure. Such devices shall not be transferable, and any such device in the
possession of an unauthorized holder may be retained by the Owner of the Parking Structure Site and
declared void. Upon the suspension or the termination of parking privileges, all parking
identification devices supplied by the Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall be returned to the
Owner of the Parking Structure Site.
2. The Owner of the Parking Structure Site or its parking operator shall from time to time
provide the Owners with the respective number of such devices reasonably requested in writing by
the respective Owners of such Site, it being understood that the number of devices requested may
exceed the respective number of Parking Spaces which such Owner is authorized to use pursuant to
the REA; provided, however, that (a) if an Owner (and/or its tenants, employees or
invitees), without the prior written consent of the Owner of the Parking Structure Site (or such
Owner’s parking operator), at any time uses the devices to occupy more than the number of Parking
Spaces then authorized to be used by said Owner (and/or its tenants, employees or invitees)
pursuant to the REA, thereafter the Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall have the right to
confiscate from such Owner the number of devices equal to the number of Parking Spaces by which
such Owner’s occupancy exceeded the number of Parking Spaces then authorized to be used by the
Owner (and/or its tenants, employees or invitees) pursuant to the REA.
3. Loss or theft of parking identification devices must be reported immediately to the Owner
of the Parking Structure Site or its parking operator, and a report of such loss or theft must be
filed by the User at that time. Any parking identification device reported lost or stolen that is
found on any unauthorized vehicle will be confiscated and the illegal holder will be subject to
prosecution.
289
4. User shall obey all signs and shall park only in areas designed for vehicle parking within
painted stall lines. Parking Spaces are for the express purpose of parking one automobile per
space. Parking Spaces shall be used only for parking vehicles no longer than full-sized passenger
automobiles. All directional signs and arrows must be observed, and all posted speed limits for
the Parking Structure shall be observed. If no speed limit is posted for an area of the Parking
Structure, the speed limit shall be five (5) miles per hour. Users shall not permit any vehicle
that belongs to or is controlled by a User, its agents, employees, invitees, licensees and
visitors, to be loaded, unloaded or parked in areas other than those designated by the Owner of the
Parking Structure Site or its parking operator for such activities. No maintenance, washing,
waxing or cleaning of vehicles shall be permitted in the Automobile Parking Areas. The Automobile
Parking Areas shall not be used for overnight or other storage for vehicles of any type. Each User
shall park and lock his or her own vehicle.
5. Except as otherwise provided in the REA, the Owner of the Parking Structure Site reserves
the right to modify, redesign or redesignate uses permitted in the Automobile Parking Areas or any
portion thereof, to relocate Parking Spaces from floor to floor, and to allocate Parking Spaces
between compact and standard sizes from time to time, as long as the same comply with applicable
Legal Requirements, and do not deprive any Owner of its Minimum Parking Standards. Reserved
Parking Spaces shall be clearly and prominently marked as such by the Owner of the Parking
Structure Site. Neither the Owner of the Parking Structure Site nor its parking operator shall be
liable or responsible for the failure of Users to observe such markings or to obey other rules and
regulations, agreements, laws or ordinances applicable to the Automobile Parking Areas. Without
290
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall not be
obligated to tow any violator’s vehicle, or to take any other action on account of any such
failure.
6. The Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall be solely responsible for the Maintenance (as
such term is defined in the REA) and operation of the applicable Automobile Parking Area. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Owner of the Parking Structure Site shall at all
times maintain all gates, elevators, lighting, electrical and exhaust systems, alarms, and
sprinklers in good working order.
7. The Automobile Parking Area shall be accessible 24 hours a day. After normal business
hours, the Automobile Parking Area may be protected by security gates operated by access cards in
order to maintain the security of the Automobile Parking Area.
8. H/C I Owner and/or H/C II Owner, as the case may be, may enter into agreements from time to
time with the other Owners restricting the rights of employees of Tenants of such other Owners to
park in the Automobile Parking Areas.
9. Nothing set forth in these Parking Rules is intended to deprive any Owner of its Minimum Parking
Standards. Any conflict between any provision of these Parking Rules and any provision of the REA
shall be resolved in favor of the REA.
