(b)    For the benefit of the MGM Parties, the representations and warranties applicable to MGP and the OP, as set forth in Articles IV and V, shall have been true and correct

 

16


on the date hereof and as of the Closing (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such date as if made at and as of such date) in all respects;

ARTICLE X -

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.1    General Indemnification by MGM. Except (i) as provided in Section 10.3 or (ii) as required by applicable law, MGM shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each MGP Party and each of their respective directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “MGP Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the MGP Indemnified Parties relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication):

(a)    any Retained Liability or any Liability of a MGM Party other than the Contributed Liabilities, or the failure of any MGM Party or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any Retained Liabilities or any Liability of a MGM Party other than the Contributed Liabilities in accordance with its respective terms, whether prior to, on or after the Closing Date; and

(b)    any breach by any MGM Party of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents (other than the Second Amendment to Master Lease).

 

18


Section 10.2    General Indemnification by the OP. Except (i) as provided in Section 10.3 or (ii) as required by applicable law, the OP shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each MGM Party and each of their respective directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “MGM Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the MGM Indemnified Parties relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication):

(a)    any Contributed Liability or any Liability of a MGP Party other than the Retained Liabilities, or the failure of a MGP Party or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any Contributed Liability or any Liability of a MGP Party other than the Retained Liabilities in accordance with its respective terms, whether prior to, on or after the Closing Date; and

(b)    any breach by any MGP Party of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents (other than the Second Amendment to Master Lease).

Section 10.3    Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.

(a)    Any Liability subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article X will be net of Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Liability. Accordingly, the amount which any Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of the related Liability. If an Indemnified Party receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds, then the Indemnified Party will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to such Insurance Proceeds but not exceeding the amount of the Indemnity Payment paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Liability.

(b)    An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek to collect or recover any third-party Insurance Proceeds (other than Insurance Proceeds under an arrangement where future premiums are adjusted to reflect prior claims in excess of prior premiums) to which the Indemnified Party is entitled in connection with any Liability for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article X; provided, that the Indemnified Party’s inability to collect or recover any such Insurance Proceeds shall not limit the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder.

Section 10.4    Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a)    If an Indemnified Party receives written notice that a Person (including any Governmental Entity) that is not an MGM Party or an MGP Party has asserted any claim or commenced any action (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”) that may implicate an Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify pursuant to Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, or any other Section of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, such Indemnified Party shall give such

 

19


Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as promptly as practicable (and no later than within twenty (20) days or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim requires) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnified Party or other Person to provide notice in accordance with this Section 10.4(a) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article X, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

(b)    Subject to this Section 10.4(b) and Section 10.4(c), an Indemnifying Party may elect to control the defense of (and to seek to settle or compromise), at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, any Third-Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnified Party in accordance with Section 10.4(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party of its election whether the Indemnifying Party will assume responsibility for defending such Third-Party Claim, which election shall specify any reservations or exceptions to its defense. After receiving notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, whether with or without any reservations or exceptions with respect to such defense, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified Party and, in any event, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Indemnified Party’s possession or under such Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, whether with or without any reservations or exceptions with respect to such defense, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnified Party for any such fees or expenses incurred during the course of its defense of such Third-Party Claim, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense.

(c)    Notwithstanding Section 10.4(b), if any Indemnified Party shall in good faith determine that there would be an actual conflict of interest (whether legal, business or otherwise) if counsel for the Indemnifying Party represented both the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees and expenses of one (1) separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties.

(d)    If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third-Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnified Party of its election as provided in Section 10.4(b), such Indemnified Party may defend such Third-Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party is conducting the defense against any such

 

20


Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnified Party.

(e)    Without the prior written consent of any Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, no Indemnified Party may settle or compromise, or seek to settle or compromise, any Third-Party Claim. Without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any pending or threatened Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnified Party is seeking or may seek indemnity pursuant to this Section 10.4 unless such judgment or settlement is solely for monetary damages, does not impose any expense or obligation on the Indemnified Party, does not involve any finding or determination of wrongdoing or violation of law by the Indemnified Party and provides for a full, unconditional and irrevocable release of that Indemnified Party from all liability in connection with the Third-Party Claim.

Section 10.5    Tax Procedures.

(a)    With respect to any period in which MGP has made or will make an election to be taxed as a real estate investment trust within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code (a “REIT”), notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, any payments to be made by any MGM Party to any MGP Party pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.3 for any calendar year shall not exceed the sum of (i) the amount that it is determined will not be gross income of MGP for purposes of the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code (the “Specified REIT Requirements”) or would constitute income described in Sections 856(c)(2)(A) through (I) and 856(c)(3)(A) through (I) of the Code (“Qualifying Income”), with such determination to be set forth in an opinion of outside Tax counsel selected by MGP, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to MGP, plus (ii) such additional amount that is estimated can be paid to the applicable MGP Party in such Taxable year without causing MGP to fail to meet the Specified REIT Requirements, determined (x) as if the payment of such amount did not constitute Qualifying Income and (y) by taking into account any other payments to MGP during such Taxable year that do not constitute Qualifying Income, which determination shall be (A) made by independent Tax accountants to MGP, and (B) submitted to and approved by MGP’s outside Tax counsel, plus (iii) in the event that MGP receives a ruling from the IRS to the effect that the receipt of the additional amount otherwise to be paid under this Agreement either would constitute Qualifying Income or will not be gross income of MGP for purposes of the Specified REIT Requirements, the aggregate payments otherwise required to be made pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.3 (determined without regard to this Section 10.5(a)) less the amount otherwise previously paid under clauses (i) and (ii) above.

(b)    At the election of MGP, MGM shall cause the full amount of any payments otherwise to be made by any MGM Party pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.3 either to be paid in cash as promptly as reasonably practicable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by MGP or to be placed in a mutually agreed escrow account

 

21


upon mutually acceptable terms (which shall provide that (i) the amount in the escrow account shall be treated as the property of the applicable MGM Party, unless it is released from such escrow account to any MGP Indemnified Party, (ii) all income earned upon the amount in the escrow account shall be treated as the property of the applicable MGM Party and reported, as and to the extent required by applicable Law, by the escrow agent to the IRS, or any other Taxing authority, on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or other appropriate form) as income earned by the applicable MGM Party whether or not said income has been distributed during such Taxable year and (iii) any portion thereof shall not be released to any MGP Indemnified Party unless and until MGM receives any of the following: (A) a letter from MGP’s independent Tax accountants indicating the amount that it is estimated can be paid at that time to the MGP Indemnified Parties without causing MGP to fail to meet the Specified REIT Requirements for the Taxable year in which the payment would be made, which determination shall be made by such independent Tax accountants or (B) a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of outside Tax counsel selected by MGP such opinion to be reasonably satisfactory to MGP, in each case, to the effect that the receipt of the additional amount otherwise to be paid pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.3 either would be excluded from gross income of MGP for purposes of the Specified REIT Requirements or would constitute Qualifying Income, in either of which events MGM shall cause the applicable MGM Party to pay to the applicable MGP Indemnified Parties the lesser of the unpaid amounts due pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.3 (determined without regard to this Section 10.5) or the maximum amount stated in the letter referred to in clause (iii)(A) above.

(c)    Any amount held in escrow pursuant to Section 10.5(b) for five years shall be released from such escrow to be used as determined by the applicable MGM Party in its sole and absolute discretion.

(d)    The OP shall bear all costs and expenses with respect to the escrow.

(e)    The MGM Parties shall cooperate in good faith to amend this Section 10.5 at the reasonable request of MGP in order to (i) maximize the portion of such payment that may be distributed to the MGP Indemnified Party hereunder without causing MGP to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, (ii) improve MGP’s chances of securing a favorable ruling described in this Section 10.5, or (iii) assist MGP in obtaining a favorable opinion from its outside Tax counsel or determination from its Tax accountants as described in this Section 10.5. MGP shall reimburse the MGM Parties for all reasonable costs and expenses of such cooperation.

(f)    The Parties agree that any amounts paid in cash by OP to the Ground Lessee and any debt assumed by OP in excess of the amount that is allocated to the Ground Lessee pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(a) shall be treated as the reimbursement of preformation expenditures to the extent permitted under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(d).

Section 10.6    Additional Matters.

(a)    Indemnification payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article X shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the

 

22


Indemnified Party, including an obligation to provide reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Article X shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party; (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnified Party of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder; and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

(b)    Any claim for indemnification under this Agreement which does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnified Party to the applicable Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30) day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30) day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents without prejudice to its continuing rights to pursue indemnification hereunder.

(c)    If payment is made by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnified Party as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnified Party shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(d)    In an action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant if they conclude that substitution is desirable and practical. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the action as set forth in this Section 10.6(d), and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all costs of defending the action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys’ fees, experts fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement, and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement.

(e)    The Parties agree to treat (i) any payment required by this Agreement (other than payments with respect to interest accruing after the Closing) as either a contribution by or on behalf of the Ground Lessee to the OP or a distribution by or on behalf of the OP to the Ground Lessee, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Closing or as a payment of an assumed or retained Liability, and (ii) any payment of interest as Taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Party entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment, in either case except as otherwise required by applicable law.

 

23


Section 10.7    Remedies Cumulative; Limitations of Liability. The rights provided in this Article X shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article XI, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnified Party of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither MGP or its Affiliates, on the one hand, nor MGM or its Affiliates, on the other hand, shall be liable to the other for any special, indirect, punitive, exemplary, remote, speculative or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages (collectively, “Special Damages”) of the other arising in connection with the transactions (provided, that any such Liability with respect to a Third Party Claim shall be considered direct damages).

Section 11.14    Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any Ancillary Document, any and all remedies provided herein or therein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by any Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree and acknowledge that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder or thereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Document) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions herein and therein, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

Section 11.15    Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein or in any Ancillary Document, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated herein shall be paid by (a) MGM, if the Party incurring such fees or expenses is a MGM Party and (b) the OP, if the Party incurring such fees or expenses is a MGP Party, whether or not such transactions are consummated.

Section 11.16    Further Assurances. Each Party agrees (a) to furnish, upon request of any other Party, such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to such other Party additional documents, and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as such other Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

EXHIBIT B

Form of Second Amendment to Master Lease

SECOND AMENDMENT TO MASTER LEASE

This SECOND AMENDMENT TO MASTER LEASE (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of                     , 2017 (the “Effective Date”), by and between MGP Lessor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “Landlord”), and MGM Lessee, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “Tenant”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Master Lease (as hereinafter defined).

RECITALS

A.    Landlord and Tenant have entered into that certain Master Lease dated as of April 25, 2016 (the “Master Lease”), which was amended by that certain First Amendment to Master Lease dated August 1, 2016 (“First Amendment”) (the term “Master Lease” refers to the Master Lease, as amended by the First Amendment, and as the same may be further amended or modified from time to time, as the context may require);

B.    Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Master Lease by adding the MGM National Harbor Resort & Casino, to the Leased Property demised pursuant to the Master Lease and Landlord desires to lease the same to Tenant and Tenant desires to lease the same from Landlord upon the terms set forth in the Master Lease as amended hereby; and

C.    Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the First Amendment as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Amendment to the First Amendment

1.1    Legal Description. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that Schedule 1 of the First Amendment shall be deleted in its entirety and shall be replaced with Schedule 1 attached hereto.

ARTICLE II

Amendment to Master Lease

2.1    Additional Leased Property. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that from and after the Effective Date (i) the MGM National Harbor Resort & Casino (“National Harbor”) shall be added to the “List of Facilities” set forth on Exhibit A to the Master Lease, (ii) the legal description of National Harbor attached hereto as Schedule 2 (Part I) shall be added to Part I of Exhibit B to the Master Lease and the description of ground lease attached hereto as Schedule 2 (Part II) (the “National Harbor Ground Lease”) shall be added to Part II of Exhibit B to the Master Lease, (iii) National Harbor constitutes a portion of the Leased Property, and shall be a Facility, for all purposes under the Master Lease, as modified by this Amendment and as the same may be further amended or modified from time to time, (iv) National Harbor shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Master Lease, and (v) National Harbor will be subleased by Tenant to one or more Operating Subtenants pursuant to one or more Operating Subleases in accordance with the Master Lease.

 

1


2.2    Base Rent. From and after the Effective Date, the amount of Five Hundred Eighty-Five Million Dollars ($585,000,000) set forth in the definition of “Base Rent” (as such definition was amended by the First Amendment), which amount subsequently increased on April 1, 2017, by the Escalation (i.e., Eleven Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,700,000)), is hereby increased by the sum of Eighty-Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($85,500,000) (the “Base Rent Adjustment Amount”) such that Base Rent shall be equal to Six Hundred Eighty Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($682,200,000). In accordance with the terms of the Master Lease, commencing on the beginning of the next Lease Year (i.e., April 1, 2018) such sum shall increase to an annual amount equal to the sum of (i) of Six Hundred Eighty Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($682,200,000), and (ii) the Escalation (i.e., Thirteen Million Six Hundred and Forty Four Thousand Dollars ($13,644,000) and shall be subject to future adjustment as set forth in the Master Lease. The Base Rent Adjustment Amount payable during any Lease Year or portion thereof consisting of more or less than twelve (12) calendar months shall be prorated on a monthly basis such that the Base Rent Adjustment Amount that is included within the Base Rent for each calendar month is equal to the Base Rent Adjustment Amount divided by twelve (12). In the event the month in which the Base Rent Adjustment Amount takes effect is a partial month, Tenant shall pay (i) Base Rent (calculated without application of the Base Rent Adjustment Amount) for such month in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Master Lease and (ii) a portion of the Base Rent Adjustment Amount which shall be prorated on a daily basis such that the Base Rent Adjustment Amount for such calendar month is equal to the monthly Base Rent Adjustment Amount divided by the actual number of days in such month and multiplied by the number of days for which the adjustment is applicable.

2.3    Percentage Rent. From and after the Effective Date, the amount of Sixty-Five Million Dollars ($65,000,000) set forth in the definition of “Percentage Rent” (as such definition was amended by the First Amendment) is hereby increased by the sum of Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($9,500,000) (the “Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount”) such that Percentage Rent shall be equal to Seventy Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($74,500,000). The Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount payable during any Lease Year or portion thereof consisting of more or less than twelve (12) calendar months shall be prorated on a monthly basis such that the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount that in included within the Percentage Rent for each calendar month is equal to the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount divided by twelve (12). In the event the month in which the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount takes effect is a partial month, Tenant shall pay (i) Percentage Rent (calculated without application of the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount) for such month in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Master Lease and (ii) a portion of the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount which shall be prorated on a daily basis such that the Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount for such calendar month is equal to the monthly Percentage Rent Adjustment Amount divided by the actual number of days in such month and multiplied by the number of days for which the adjustment is applicable.

2.4    Identified Subleases. The definition of Identified Subleases shall also include those certain leases and/or subleases identified in a supplemental letter of even date herewith from Tenant to Landlord.

2.5    Gaming Licenses. The description of gaming licenses contained on Schedule 3 attached hereto shall be added to Exhibit D to the Master Lease.

2.6    NH First Term. The first term of the Master Lease with respect to National Harbor (the “NH First Term”) shall commence on [                ], 2017 (the “NH Commencement Date”) and end on the last day of the calendar month that is eighty-two (82) months after the NH Commencement Date, subject to renewals as set forth in Section 2.7 below and Section 1.4 of the Master Lease.

 

2


2.7    NH Renewal Term. The NH First Term may be renewed one (1) time (the “NH Renewal Term”), commencing on the date that the NH First Term ends and ending on the earlier of (i) the last day of the first Renewal Term in the event Tenant determines to exercise its right to renew the Initial Term pursuant to Section 1.4 of the Master Lease, or (ii) the last day of the Initial Term in the event Tenant determines not to exercise its right to renew the Initial Term pursuant to Section 1.4 of the Master Lease. The decision to extend the Master Lease for the NH Renewal Term must be made by Tenant in the same manner as required for a Renewal Notice pursuant to Section 1.4 of the Master Lease. The “Term” as it relates to the National Harbor Facility shall mean the NH First Term, plus, the NH Renewal Term (to the extent exercised), plus, all Renewal Terms after the NH Renewal Term expiration (to the extent exercised). In the event that Tenant declines to extend the Master Lease for the NH Renewal Term, Tenant will then be deemed to have forfeited any future right to renew the Master Lease. Following the NH Renewal Term, the term of the Master Lease with respect to National Harbor shall conform entirely with Section 1.4 of the Master Lease and may be extended through Renewal Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, the Rent shall not be adjusted in the event that Tenant declines to extend the Master Lease for the NH Renewal Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of (a) the removal the National Harbor Facility from the Master Lease pursuant to Section 1.5, (b) the assignment by Tenant of its Leasehold Estate with respect to the National Harbor Facility pursuant to Section 22.2(a)(iii), or (c) the termination of the Master Lease with respect to the National Harbor Facility pursuant to Section 15.1, then Tenant will have been deemed to have renewed the Master Lease for the NH Renewal Term for the purposes of this Section 2.7.

ARTICLE III

Reaffirmation of Guaranty

3.1    Reaffirmation of Guaranty. By executing this Amendment, MGM Resorts International (the “Guarantor”) acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s obligations under the Master Lease have been modified by this Amendment and therefore Guarantor’s Obligations (as defined in the Guaranty) have been modified by this Amendment. Guarantor hereby reaffirms the Guaranty and Guarantor’s Obligations thereunder, as modified by this Amendment.

ARTICLE IV

Maryland Regulatory Requirements

4.1    Maryland Regulatory Requirements. Neither the Master Lease nor this Amendment: (i) create any property right in the video lottery operation license awarded or issued to MGM National Harbor, LLC and/or any other license awarded or issued under MD Code, State Government, §9-1A-01 et seq.; (ii) accrue any monetary value to the privilege of participation in video lottery; or (iii) transfer any license issued under MD Code, State Government, §9-1A-01 et seq., including, for the avoidance of doubt, the video lottery operation license awarded and/or issued to MGM National Harbor, LLC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Master Lease or this Amendment, the participation in video lottery operations shall be conditioned solely on the continuing individual qualifications of the person who seeks the privilege.

ARTICLE V

Miscellaneous

5.1    No Further Amendment. The Master Lease shall remain in full force and effect, unmodified, except as expressly set forth in Articles I – IV above.

 

3


5.2    Governing Law. Subject to Section 41.5 of the Master Lease, this Amendment shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principals.

5.3    Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be a valid and binding original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
