11. Confidentiality; Work Product.

(a) Executive acknowledges that the continued success of the Company (which, for purposes of this ¶11(a) shall include its subsidiaries and affiliates) depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information (all of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future being the “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information includes all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s prior, current or potential business and (ii) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information further includes, without limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive during the course of his employment with the Company’s predecessors and his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the Company, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s business or industry of which Executive is aware or becomes aware during the Engagement Period, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of it during Executive’s employment with the Company’s predecessor and his course of performance under this Agreement, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (x) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act or (y) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order.

(b) All materials developed by Executive for Company pursuant to his employment under this Agreement are to be considered “works made for hire” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. Section 101) and are the sole and exclusive property of Company. Executive agrees that any and all patent and copyright rights to the materials developed hereunder, to the extent they are available, are the sole and exclusive property of Company, free from any claim or retention of rights thereto on the part of Executive. Executive agrees that he promptly will make full written disclosure to Company and will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of Company and its subsidiaries, and Executive hereby assigns to Company or its designee, his entire right, title and interest in and to, any and all inventions, innovations, improvements, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, methods, trade secrets, designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws) which are solely or jointly conceived, developed, made or reduced to practice, or caused to be conceived, developed, made or reduced to practice, by Executive during the Engagement Term (collectively “Work Product”); provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to assign to Company, Work Product that he may develop entirely on his own time without using Company’ or any subsidiary’s equipment, supplies, facilities, Confidential Information or proprietary documents, except for Work Product which either: (i) relates directly to Company’ business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Company; or (ii) results from any work

performed by Executive for Company. Executive represents to Company that there are no inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements or trade secrets which were made by him prior to his employment by Company or any subsidiary, which are owned by him or in which he has an interest, which may relate to Company’ or its subsidiaries’ business, products or research and development and which are not assigned to Company hereunder. During the three-year period commencing on the effective date of this Agreement and for six (6) months thereafter, Executive agrees (i) to keep and maintain adequate and current records of all Work Product made by him (solely or jointly with others), and (ii) to assist Company, or its designee, at Company’ expense, in every proper way to secure Company’ rights in the Work Product and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, powers of attorney and all other instruments that Company shall deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for and obtain such rights. To the extent that any material produced under this Agreement may not be considered works made for hire, or to the extent that this ¶11(b) is declared invalid either in substance or purpose, in whole or in part, Executive hereby agrees to irrevocably transfer, grant, convey, assign, and relinquish exclusively to Company any and all of Executive’s right, title, and interest, including ownership of copyright and/or patent rights, to any material developed by Executive under this Agreement without the necessity of further consideration.

12. Restrictive Covenant. Executive acknowledges and agrees with respect to the Company that the business of the Company is conducted primarily in the United States (the “Territory”), and that the Company’s reputation and goodwill are an integral part of its business success throughout the Territory. If Executive deprives the Company of any of the Company’s goodwill or in any manner utilizes its reputation and goodwill in competition with the Company, the Company will be deprived of the benefits for which it has bargained. Accordingly, Executive agrees that during the Effective Time, he shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or as a member of a partnership, or as an officer, director, employee, consultant, lender or shareholder of any other corporation or entity, compete with the Company in any Family Entertainment Center business as defined in ¶16 that is located within 100 miles of any Family Entertainment Center owned as of the date of this Agreement, or that is acquired, developed or owned during the Effective Period (if the Executive had knowledge that such Family Entertainment Center was to be acquired, developed or owned during the Effective period), by the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates. Executive further agrees not to solicit the employment or services of, or hire any person who was known to be employed by the Company while employed by the Company for a period of six months following termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this restrictive covenant shall not apply if the Company fails to compensate Executive as set forth in this Agreement during the Engagement Period, or in the event the Agreement is sooner terminated, the Company fails to make any of the payments set forth in ¶10 of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Effective Time” shall mean the Engagement Period and one (1) year thereafter; provided first that if the Agreement is terminated during the initial Engagement Period, then the Effective Period shall be the greater of the period during which Executive receives severance from the Company and one year from the termination date, except that Executive may reduce the Effective Time to one year by releasing the Company from any and all severance obligations owed under Section 10(f).

13. Remedies. If, at the time of enforcement of ¶11 and ¶12 a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the period, scope or area. Because the Executive’s services are unique and because the Executive has access to confidential information, the parties agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any breach of ¶11 and ¶12. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of ¶11 and ¶12, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) performance of the services of the Executive hereunder may occur in jurisdictions other than the jurisdiction whose law the parties have agreed shall govern the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement, (b) the law of the State of New York shall govern construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement to the fullest extent possible, and (c) ¶11 and ¶12 shall restrict the Executive only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

14. Delivery of Materials Upon Termination of Employment. As requested by the Company from time to time and upon the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company all copies and embodiments, in whatever form, of all Confidential Information and Company property in the Executive’s possession or within his control (including, but not limited to, written records, notes, photographs, manuals, notebooks, documentation, program listings, flow charts, magnetic media, disks, diskettes, tapes and all other materials containing any Confidential Information) irrespective of the location or form of such material and, if requested by the Company, shall provide the Company with written confirmation that all such materials have been delivered to the Company.

15. Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Executive to the fullest extent which it is empowered to do so by the LLC Agreement, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by Executive in connection with any proceedings) resulting from any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during the Engagement Period, provided however, such indemnification shall not extend to any liability for breach of this Agreement. The Company shall also use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain coverage for him under any insurance policy now in force or hereinafter obtained during the term of this Agreement covering the other officers and directors of the Company against lawsuits.

16. Definition of Family Entertainment Center. For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Family Entertainment Center” or “Family Entertainment Center business” means an amusement park, theme park or similar facility that (x) offers water-leisure recreational facilities and other water attractions, and/or (y) offers a broad selection of attractions, including, but not limited to, miniature golf, go kart raceways, batting cages, rides and/or arcade pavilions.

All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when mailed at any general or branch United States Post Office enclosed in a certified postpaid envelope, return receipt requested, and addressed to the address of the respective party stated below or to such changed address as the party may have fixed by notice:

26. Executive’s Cooperation. During the Engagement Period and thereafter, Executive shall cooperate with the Company and its subsidiaries in any internal investigation, any administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding or any dispute with a third party as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Executive being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). If Company requires Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this ¶26, the Company shall reimburse Executive solely for reasonable travel expenses (including lodging and meals) upon submission of receipts.
