Owner shall provide all funds necessary to enable Manager to manage and operate the Resort in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Annual Operating Budget and, without limiting Owner’s obligation in this regard, it is understood that these funds shall be paid for from Gross Revenues, to the extent available.

To the extent the Reserve Fund is insufficient at a particular time to meet the spending requirements set forth in the approved Capital Budget or to the extent the Reserve Fund plus anticipated contributions for the ensuing calendar year is less than the budgeted expenditures set forth in the approved Capital Budget for the ensuing calendar year, then, in either such event, Manager shall give Owner written notice thereof at least thirty (30) days before the anticipated date such funds will be needed. Owner shall supply the necessary funds by deposit to the Reserve Fund at least fifteen (15) days before the anticipated date such funds will be needed. All proceeds from the sale of capital items no longer needed for the operation of the Resort shall be deposited to the Reserve Fund. Sale of such items shall be at the reasonable discretion of Manager, and conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Upon termination of this Agreement for whatever reason, or upon sale of the Resort, Manager’s right to expend any unused portion of the Reserve Fund shall terminate and the balance of the fund shall be paid over to Owner, less any undisputed sums then due to Manager.

(g) Environmental Matters. If any Hazardous Material (hereinafter defined) is discovered at any time on any portion of the Resort in violation of or as would reasonably be expected to result in liability under any Environmental Law, or if any Environmental Law (hereinafter defined) is violated at any time, Owner at its expense shall promptly remove, remediate or abate such Hazardous Material (and all contaminated soil and

(i) after the parties have met in an effort to resolve any issues in dispute, either of the parties is entitled to request that the Independent Expert be appointed to settle the issue in dispute. (The party which makes such request shall be the “Disputing Party”, and the other party the “Non-Disputing Party” for the purposes of this Article 5.3). The Independent Expert shall act as expert and not as arbitrator and the costs of the Independent Expert shall be paid by the unsuccessful party or, if the Independent Expert does not agree entirely with either party, otherwise as the Independent Expert shall determine.

(ii) The Independent Expert shall be such chartered accountant or firm of chartered accountants or consultant with recognized expertise in hotel management and feasibility studies in relation to the matter to be determined as shall be selected by the Non-Disputing Party from three nominations put forward by the Disputing Party; provided that if the Non-Disputing Party does not wish to select any of the three persons nominated by the Disputing Party, then the matter will be referred to a chartered accountant to be appointed by the President or the acting President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (or any successors of that institute); and

(iii) If the issues in dispute have not been resolved prior to commencement of the Fiscal Year in question, then Manager must proceed to implement that part of the Annual Operating Budget as is not in dispute and the balance will be suspended until resolved and until resolved will be replaced by the amount included in the approved Annual Operating Budget for the previous fiscal year adjusted per item by the percentage (%) increase in the CPI Index over the previous Fiscal Year.

Owner and Manager shall meet to discuss the proposed Capital Budget and Owner shall be required to make specific written objections to a proposed Capital Budget in the manner and within the same time periods specified in Section 5.3 with respect to the Annual Operating Budget. If Owner does not approve the Capital Budget, Manager will only spend such amounts as are approved by Owner, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that until any disputed Capital Budget item(s) have been resolved, Manager shall be entitled to spend for capital expenditures funds then in the reserve account but only for items for which such expenditures were allocated in the Capital Budget or as otherwise approved by Owner. Manager shall not incur any expenses for Capital Improvements in excess of the Capital Budget without the prior approval of Owner.

After a Capital Budget has been adopted, it shall be subject to review and modification in the event unpredicted or unanticipated capital expenditures are required during any calendar year, or in the event of unexpected occurrences having a material effect on the Business. Manager and Owner each agree not to unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to a proposed modification of a Capital Budget. Any amendment that is mutually agreed upon shall be set forth in writing and signed by both parties. It is acknowledged by Owner that capital expenditures required as a result of an Emergency Situation shall not reduce amounts available pursuant to the Capital Budget or otherwise hereunder, other than to the extent a Capital Budget item is subsumed within the capital expenditures required as a result of the occurrence of the emergency.

(b) General Maintenance Non-Capital Replacements; Emergency Expenditures.

(i) Subject to funds availability (and the limitations of the approved Operating Budget), Manager shall cause the Resort to be maintained in good repair and condition, including FF&E, and in conformity with the Required Standard and applicable laws, rules and regulations, and shall authorize routine maintenance, repairs and alterations as Manager from time to time reasonably deems necessary.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, maintenance (or other) expenditures in excess of budgeted amounts may be made if reasonably deemed necessary by Manager in the event of an emergency situation which creates a risk to life, safety or significant damage to the Resort property (each an “Emergency Situation”), provided Manager makes good faith, reasonable efforts to notify Owner as soon as Manager becomes aware of the Emergency Situation giving rise to the expenditures (but in all events within twenty-four (24) hours following the Emergency Situation) and the amount of such expenditures is reasonable in the circumstances (but in no event shall non-budgeted Emergency Situation expenditures exceed Two Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) per year without Owner’s consent); it being understood that Manager shall have no liability or responsibility for any failure to take any action in connection with an Emergency Situation, if such action is not taken as a result of this Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) limitation.

(ii) Owner shall commit the financial and other resources necessary to permit the Resort to be operated and maintained in accordance with the Required Standard and Owner shall establish and maintain, at its sole expense, a financing program for the Resort to ensure that sufficient funds exist at all times to meet all financial requirements of the Resort. Pursuant to the foregoing obligation, Owner shall deposit into the Operating Account on or before the commencement of the operating term, in addition to any amounts required to be provided by Owner in the first Annual Operating Budget, the amount of initial working capital as agreed between the parties. In addition, if at any time Manager reasonably determines that the available funds in the Operating Account are insufficient to allow for the uninterrupted and efficient operation of the Resort in accordance with the Annual Operating Budget for the relevant Fiscal Year and the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall notify Owner of the existence and amount of the shortfall, giving all reasonable details thereof, including the reasons therefore (a “Funds Request”) and, within fifteen (15) days following the delivery of the Funds Request, Owner shall deposit into the Operating Account the funds requested by Manager in the Funds Request. If the Owner fails to make such deposit, Manager may elect, without obligation, to make on Owner’s behalf payment of any such due and unpaid obligations of Owner and Owner shall pay interest to Manager on any such advances from the date falling 15 days after the delivery of the Funds Request to the date of payment by Owner at a rate equal to LIBOR + 500bps and Manager shall be

20.3 No Waivers; Amendments.
