Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine any of the provisions of this Section 2.6 to be unreasonable, the disclosing party agrees to a reaffirmation of such provisions by such court to any limits which such court finds to be reasonable and the other party will not assert that such provision shall be eliminated in its entirety by such court.

Second, the next (or first, if there is no distribution under (ii) subsection (i) above) $450,000.00 of Net Operating Profit shall be retained by SMG. (iii) retained by the County. Third, the next $450,000.00 of Net Operating Profit shall be

Fourth, to the extent that the County expends funds to pay for (iv) Capital Improvements andlor Capital Equipment purchases pursuant to Section 5.8 hereof in any prior Fiscal Year in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00), Net Operating Profits shall be next distributed to the County to cover the amounts in excess of $250,000.00 spent by the County on such improvements and equipment purchases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the following items shall not count as Capital Improvements andlor Capital Equipment purchases for purposes of determining amounts expended by the County for which it may receive reimbursement pursuant to this subsection (iv): (A) any structural elements (e.g., the roof to the New Facility) andlor any major systems servicing the New Facility (e.g., HVAC and electrical), unless the cause for such expenditure is directly due to SMG's breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (B) expenditures that are covered under applicable manufacturer's warranties for any such item, except to the extent that recovery under such manufacturer's warranty is adversely affected by SMG's breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and/or (C) any such items that were originally included in the capital budget for the construction of the New Facility, but were not purchased in connection with the completion of the New Facility. Any Net Operating Profit in excess of the amounts covered in (v) subsections (i) through (iv) above shall be allocated sixty percent (60%) to the County and forty percent (40%) to SMG. To the extent that policies or guidelines hereafter established or modified (b) by the County as described in Section 2.l(b) hereof adversely affect revenues or expenses at the

New Facility, then and in that event, the fee formula set forth in this Section 4.3 shall be appropriately adjusted so that it reflects the additional costs or reduced revenues resulting from such established or modified policies or guidelines. The parties acknowledge that (i) in connection with the sale by or on (c) behalf of the County of naming rights to the New Facility, the rights granted to such naming rights sponsor may include rights beyond exterior signage on the building, such as interior signage at the New Facility and/or messaging rights on the New Facility's scoreboard, use of a suite at the New Facility and other advertising inventory at the New Facility (collectively, the "NR Sponsor's Other Rights"), and (ii) if such naming rights sponsor is granted NR Sponsor's Other Rights, the value of'such rights will be credited in the calculation of Net Operating Profit/Loss for purposes of this Section 4.3 and the application of its provisions. The value of such rights will be based upon the average rates charged to other sponsors/purchasers of such rights at the New Facility during the applicable Fiscal Year for comparable advertising inventory or rights. The above compensation and Net Operating Loss funding responsibilities (d) are based on the following facts: There not being a material difference between the actual design (i) components of the New Facility and the description of the New Facility contained in Exhibit "F" attached hereto, which difference materially adversely affects the Operating Revenues or Operating Expenses of the New Facility; There not being in either Sedgwick County, Kansas or Sumner (ii) County, Kansas (A) a casino performance venue with a seating capacity of 2,500 or more or (B) an indoor public assembly facility with a seating capacity of 5,000 or more, in either case that materially adversely affects the Operating Revenues of the New Facility. For sake of clarity, the parties agree that the indoor facility that is currently being planned by a private developer in the Park City, Kansas area with an expected seating capacity of 5,000 is not considered to be covered by clause (B) above; (iii) There not being any material adverse change in any of those major assumptions contained in SMG's pro forma operating budget that are listed on Exhibit "H" attached hereto, which changes are outside of SMG's reasonable control; and There not being a material increase of fifty percent (50%) or (iv) greater in the total annual cost to insure the Facility as required by this Agreement from the previous total annual cost for such insurance, outside of SMG's reasonable control. If there is a change in any of the facts identified in (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the County and SMG will work together for sixty (60) days after notice by SMG of such change, to make the necessary adjustments to the above compensation formula and/or the Net Operating Loss funding obligation. If the Contract Administrator and SMG are able to reach an agreement on such necessary adjustments, the Contract Administrator will work promptly to obtain the approval of the County Commissioners to such adjustments, if such approval is needed; provided that such approval is obtained within sixty (60) days following the date of such agreement

between the Contract Administrator and SMG. Notwithstanding such efforts, if the County and SMG are unable to agree upon such necessary adjustments within such initial sixty day period or if the County Commissioners' approval of such agreement is not obtained in the other sixty day time period described above, SMG may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the County within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the applicable sixty (60) day period. Such notice shall provide that such termination shall be effective within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. If SMG fails to give such notice within such fifteen day period, then this Agreement shall continue in effect without adjustment for such change in facts. Payment. The payment of the amounts to SMG and the County as (e) provided in this Section 4.'3 shall be made contemporaneous with the delivery to the County of the audited annual financial statements described in Section 6.1 hereof for the New Facility for each Fiscal Year hereunder, SMG shall include with such financial statements a calculation of the amounts due to the parties pursuant to Section 4.3 above. The amounts due to SMG and the County under Section 4.3 shall be disbursed to each party, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the above-described documents and information.

Funding; Budget; Bank Accounts.

5.1 Operating Funds.

Subject to Section 5.2, following the approval of the annual operating budget for a Fiscal Year for the Existing Facility (including, without limitation, any annual operating budget applicable to the first Fiscal Year during the term hereof), to the extent that Operating Revenues for the Existing Facility during a calendar quarter period are insufficient, or expected to be for insufficient, to cover oPerating~xpenses the Existing Facility ("Cash Flow Shortfall") for such period, the County shall advance funds to SMG as follows. Thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of each calendar quarter during the Management Term and any Renewal Term, SMG, will submit to the County an invoice for the projected Cash Flow Shortfall for such quarter (which is offset by any cash flow surplus estimated by SMG for the then current calendar quarter, which estimate takes into account any such surplus for the first two months of such quarter and SMG's reasonable estimate of any cash flow surplus for-thelast month of such quarter), and the County will transfer such funds to SMG within five (5) business days after the start of such calendar quarter. Such funds shall be deposited by SMG in the operating or payroll account(s) established pursuant to Section 5.6 and used to pay Operating Expenses. 5.2 Non-Funding.

The County shall have no obligation to provide funds for the payment of Operating Expenses incurred or committed for in excess of the funds that have been budgeted and appropriated for such purpose for the Existing Facility. 5.3 Annual Budget.

As part of the annual plan described in Section 6.2 herein, on or before (a) ninety (90) days prior to the end of each Fiscal Year during the Management Term and Renewal Term, if any, SMG will prepare separate proposed annual operating budgets for the next Fiscal

Year with respect to the Existing Facility and the New Facility to meet the scope of services and objectives under this Agreement. For the Existing Facility, the initial proposed annual operating budget shall be delivered to the County sixty (60) days prior to January 1,2009, or thirty (30) days after notice from the County as provided in Section 3.2(a), depending on the commencement date of the Management Term for the Existing Facility. Each such budget shall contain appropriate line items for revenues and expenses and the projected Net Operating Profit or Loss. The annual budgets referred to in subsection (a) above pertaining to the (b) Existing Facility shall be reviewed and are subject to adjustment and written approval by the County. On or before thir'ty (30) days prior to the end of each Fiscal Year (or thirty (30) days after the County's receipt of the initial annual budget for the Existing Facility), the County shall notify SMG of any adjustments to the applicable annual operating budget for the Existing Facility for the succeeding Fiscal Year proposed by SMG and with such adjustments, if any, as are required for approval by the County on or before thirty (30) days prior to the end of each Fiscal Year, such budget shall be the Approved Budget for the following Fiscal Year. Although SMG shall provide the County with an annual budget for the New Facility, the County's approval of such budget is not required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any annual operating budget as proposed by SMG for the Existing Facility is adjusted by the County in a manner which, in SMG's judgment, could materially interfere, impede or impair the ability of SMG to manage, operate or promote the Existing Facility, SMG shall have the right, with one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice to the County, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2 (with the effect set forth in Section 12.3); provided, however, that (i) in no event may SMG terminate this Agreement pursuant to this section if the adjustment required by the County in the budget for the Existing Facility results in a budgeted Net Operating Profit or Loss that is less than five percent (5%) change from the budgeted Net Operating Profit or Loss in the previous final annual Approved Budget for the Existing Facility, and (ii) if such approved annual operating budget departs from the budget proposed by SMG, SMG shall not be construed to have breached its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Existing Facility if the alleged breach has been caused by the limitations in the Fiscal Year's budget.
5.4

Budget Modifications Initiated by SMG.

SMG may submit to the Contract Administrator at any time prior to the close of a Fiscal Year a supplemental or revised annual operating budget for such Fiscal Year with respect to the Existing Facility. Upon the written approval of the County of such supplemental or revised budget, the Approved Budget for such Fiscal Year for such facility shall be deemed amended to incorporate such supplemental or revised budget. The Approved Budget for the Existing Facility may only be amended as set forth in Section 5.5 below or in the preceding sentence.

5.5

Budget Modifications Initiated by the County.

In the event that it appears reasonably likely, in any year during the Management Term and Renewal Term, if any, that the actual Net Operating LossProfit for such Fiscal Year with respect to the Existing Facility will be, respectively, larger or smaller than projected in the annual operating budget for such Fiscal Year, SMG shall notify the County in writing of such

likelihood as soon as it becomes evident and thereafter submit to the County for approval a plan for reduction of Operating Expenses to a level consistent with the budgeted Net Operating LossIProfit amount for such Facility. SMG shall forthwith comply with any such expense reduction approved by the County (as may be adjusted by the County) and the approved budget for such Fiscal Year for such Facility shall be modified accordingly, provided that if the annual operating budget is modified in a manner which, in SMG's judgment, could materially interfere, impede or impair the ability of SMG to manage, operate or promote the Existing Facility, SMG shall have the right, with one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice to the County, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2 (with the effect set forth in Section 12.3) and provided further that SMG shall not be construed to have breached its obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Facility if such alleged breach has been caused by the limitations in the Fiscal Year's budget.

5.6

With respect to each of the Existing Facility and the New Facility, SMG shall establish and maintain separate bank accounts in one or more depositories designated by the County for the promotion, operation and management of the Existing Facility and the New Facility, respectively. The bank accounts shall be in the name of SMG and with signature authority on each bank account in those employees of SMG as SMG shall determine. All revenues collected by SMG from the operation of each respective Facility shall be deposited into such bank account(s) for that Facility and Operating Expenses for each respective Facility shall be paid by SMG from the bank account(s) for that Facility. All revenues collected by SMG arising from operation of each Facility, including revenues from box office sales, facility or equipment rentals, utility rental agreements, food and beverage concessions, or any other source, are the sole property of the County, held in trust by SMG for the County for application as provided herein. Any amounts remaining in such bank accounts upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, after payment of all outstanding Operating Expenses and in the case of the New Facility, also after payment of all amounts as provided in Section 4.3 hereof, shall be promptly paid by SMG to the County. Funds attributable to the Existing Facility shall not be commingled with funds attributable to the New Facility, nor shall funds attributable to either Facility be used to pay for the Operating Expenses of the other Facility, unless otherwise directed in writing by the County.

5.7

Ticket Sales Revenues.

With respect to each of the Existing Facility and the New Facility, SMG shall hold in a separate interest-bearing account in a banking institution depository in the locale in which each Facility is located any ticket sale revenues which it receives with respect to an event to be held at each Facility pending the completion of the event. Such monies are to be held for the protection of ticket purchasers, the County and SMG, and to provide a source of funds, as required for such payments to performers and promoters and for such payments of Event Expenses and other Operating Expenses for each Facility in connection with the presentation of events as may be required to be paid contemporaneously with the event. Within ten (10) business days following the satisfactory completion of an event, SMG shall pay from the ticket account all amounts due to performers and promoters and Event Expenses, and thereafter deposit into the operating account established pursuant to Section 5.6 above for the Facility in which the

event occurred the amount in such ticket account and shall pay from the operating account for such Facility Operating Expenses and such other amounts that are due. Interest which accrues on amounts deposited in the operating accounts referred to in Section 5.6 and the ticket accounts referred to above shall be considered Operating Revenues for each Facility. 5.8 Capital Improvements; Capital Equipment.

With respect to each of the Existing Facility and the New Facility, the obligation to pay for Capital Improvements and Capital Equipment purchases shall remain with the County and will not be considered Operating Expenses. The annual plan submitted pursuant to Section 6.2 for each such Facility shall include SMG's recommendation for Capital Improvements and Capital Equipment purchases to be accomplished during the year and shall be accompanied by an estimate of the cost of all such items and projects and a request that the County budget funds therefor. The County shall retain the discretion to determine whether and to what level to fund Capital Improvements and Capital Equipment purchases to each such Facility, except that with respect to the New Facility, SMG and the County shall mutually agree upon the Capital Improvements and Capital Equipment purchases to be funded by the County in any Fiscal Year during the Management Term and any Renewal Term for the New Facility (which agreement shall be at each party's sole discretion, not to be unreasonably withheld). If requested by the County, SMG, or others engaged on its behalf, shall perform, direct and supervise Capital Improvements and Capital Equipment purchases which are authorized in writing by the County or included in any annual plan approved by the County pursuant to Section 6.2.

In addition, on or before ninety (90) days following each Fiscal Year for which SMG is managing the Existing Facility and the New Facility hereunder, SMG shall furnish to the County a balance sheet, a statement of profit or loss and a statement of cash flows for each of the Existing Facility and the New Facility for the preceding Fiscal Year, prepared in accordance with generally accepted United States accounting principles and accompanied by an independent auditor's report of a nationally recognized, independent certified public accountant. The audit shall contain an opinion expressed by the independent auditor of the accuracy of financial records kept by SMG and of amounts due to the County. Each such audit shall also provide a certification of

Operating Revenues and Operating Expenses (as defined in this Agreement) for such Fiscal Year. The audit shall be conducted by a reputable firm selected by SMG with County approval. The County shall not withhold or delay such consent or approval unreasonably. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the costs of such audit shall be deemed Operating Expenses. If an audit, litigation or other action involving such records begins before the end of the three year period, the records shall be maintained for three years from the date that all issues arising out of the action are resolved or until the end of the three year retention period, whichever is later, unless prior to the end of such period of time, SMG notifies the County in writing of its desire to destroy such records and gives the County thirty (30) days to elect to take such records from SMG.

The County's right to have such an audit made with respect to any Fiscal Year and SMG's obligation to retain the above records shall expire three (3) years after termination of this Agreement. If an audit, litigation or other action involving such records begins before the end of the three year period, the records shall be maintained for three years from the date that all issues arising out of the action are resolved or until the end of the three year retention period, whichever is later, unless prior to the end of such period of time, SMG notifies the County in writing of its desire to destroy such records and gives the City thirty (30) days to elect to take such records from SMG. The retention provisions of this subsection shall survive termination of this Agreement. 6.2 Annual Plan.

EXHIBIT "H" MAJOR ASSUMPTIONS FROM SMG'S PRO FORMA OPERATING BUDGET
The following is a list of those major assumptions from SMG's pro forma operating budget that underlie the compensation and Net Operating Loss funding obligations of SMG under Section 4.3 hereof: 1. Upon commencement of the Management Term for the New Facility, there will be at least one professional hockey team as a long term tenant of such building. It is understood that SMG will be solely responsible for negotiating the terms of such tenant agreement with the hockey team, and such negotiated agreement will be subject to the joint approval rights of SMG and the County as provided in this Agreement. Although there will be no revenue generating parking spaces available to the operations of the New Facility, there will be some parking spaces available on the premises of the New Facility for the Luxury Suites and Loge Box patrons. The location of the two (2) Party Suites within the building will be such that they can be rented for end of arena floor concerts (i.e., not behind the stage where they cannot be rented). Property and hazard insurance covering the New Facility and business interruption and extra expenses insurance will not be an Operating Expense. Expenses for traffic control outside of the New Facility will not be an Operating Expense. The annual net revenues to the New Facility from the sale of Luxury Suites, Club Seats and Loge Boxes and from the sale of advertising and sponsorships will in the aggregate be at least $2,000,000, as long as Superlative's agreement is effective with respect to the sales of such items. Based upon the anticipated square footage of the New Facility and asst?mptions on the utility rates and usage from projected event activity, the annual cost of electricity, natural gas and water and sewer services for the New Facility is anticipated to be $925,000; however, after the date hereof and not less than one year prior to the opening of the New Facility, the parties will review the design of the building and its major systems and then current utility rates applicable to the building and may mutually decide in writing to modify such number based upon such additional information.
