EXHIBIT A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Exhibit A constitutes the “Terms and Conditions” referred to in, and incorporated into, the LV Stadium Events Company, LLC Single Game Premium Seating License Agreement executed by Licensee and Licensor. Pursuant to this Agreement, Licensee has received a license and right to use the Seating Product in the Stadium subject to the terms of this Agreement, including these Terms and Conditions.
- Grant of License. While in compliance with this Agreement, Licensee is granted a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right and license to occupy and use the Seating Product for the Event solely during the period commencing on the Event Date (which, as used in this Agreement, means the applicable date of the Event and the time the Stadium is open to the public) and terminating upon the conclusion of the Event. This Agreement provides Licensee and Licensee’s Guests (as defined below) only with the right and privilege to occupy and use the Seating Product in the manner set forth herein, and except as pertains to the specified right and privilege to so use and occupy the Seating Product, does not confer upon Licensee or the Guests any rights and privileges with respect to admission to the Stadium other than those afforded to other holders of tickets. The rights conferred under this Agreement are rights of personal privilege and do not confer upon Licensee any interest or estate in real property or in the Stadium.
- Term; Termination. This term of this Agreement shall commence on the Agreement Date/Time and continue until the conclusion of the Event, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated or cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all of Licensee’s obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, all of Licensee’s payment obligations, indemnification obligations, and Seating Product restoration obligations hereunder) and all other provisions that by their nature should survive termination or expiration of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 12-22) shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensor shall have no obligations with respect to Licensee following any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
- Payment; Default Event. The parties acknowledge that Licensor is authorized to process the Payment on the credit card provided by Licensee to Licensor (whether by telephone, email or in person). Licensee shall execute this Agreement and return to Licensor along with the Payment in full. In the event that Payment has not been received by Licensor within 48 hours of the Agreement Date/Time (or such lesser number of hours as follows: (i) if the Event Date is less than 48 hours after the Agreement Date/Time then within 12 hours of the Agreement Date/Time, and (ii) if the Event Date is less than 24 hours of the Agreement Date/Time then at least 4 hours prior to the Event Date), then the Seating Product may, without notice to Licensee, be rented to another party. Furthermore and regardless of whether or not Licensor rents the Seating Product to another party in accordance with the terms of this Section 3, in the event that Licensor has not timely received Payment in accordance with the foregoing (“Default Event”), then Licensee shall have no rights to the Seating Product or Seating Tickets but shall remain liable for the full Payment in accordance with the terms of Section 4(a) below. In addition to the Payment, Licensee will promptly pay all other amounts owed in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any food, beverage and service charges, and other fees, expenses, Taxes and other charges due under this Agreement, whether to Licensor, Licensor’s Affiliates (as defined below), Licensor’s concessionaires, an Event sponsor, another provider or any other person or entity. Licensor shall have the right to apply any payments, regardless of how designated, to any past due fees, expenses, Taxes or other charges under or related to this Agreement, before applying any remaining balance to current amounts due. Any monetary obligation under this Agreement not paid to Licensor by the date specified in this Agreement will bear interest accruing from such date at the rate of one-percent (1%) per month or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is greater. The interest charged shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be compounded monthly. Any amount payable by Licensee under this Agreement that is not paid in full when due shall not be considered “paid” until the interest charged thereon is paid in full. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement. In addition to Licensee’s failure to timely make Payment, the term “Default Event” as used throughout this Agreement shall further include any of the following occurrences: (i) any failure to pay when due any amounts owed by Licensee pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Payment or any portion thereof, food, beverage or service charges, ticket charges, Taxes or other fees or accrued interest, costs or expenses); (ii) Licensee otherwise defaults in the performance or observation of its duties and obligations under this Agreement; and/or (iii) Licensee seeks relief under any federal or state law for the benefit of debtors or creditors such as adjustment of debts, liquidation, winding up, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy, or if a custodian, receiver or liquidator takes charge of any of the Licensee’s property, whether by judicial appointment, agreement or operation of law. For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
- Cancellation; Substitute Events. Due to high demand of the Seating Product, the Licensee shall have no right to cancel the Agreement, and must pay the full Payment, once the Agreement is fully executed. If Licensee cancels the Agreement (prior to full execution) less than 14 days prior to the Event Date or upon a Default Event, then (i) Licensor is entitled to receive liquidated damages as follows: Licensor shall be entitled to 100% of Payment and, if applicable, any other amounts owed (including late fees) in connection with this Agreement and (ii) if applicable, Licensor shall also be entitled to license the Seating Products and Seating Tickets to any other party or no party, in its sole discretion. Licensor’s remedy, as set forth in the foregoing, is not a penalty but rather a liquidated damages provision as agreed upon by and between the parties and contemplates, among other things, the high demand for rental of the Seating Product, and Licensor's anticipated ancillary revenue related to Licensee's use of the Seating Product, which is impossible to quantify. If Licensee notifies Licensor of cancellation of this Agreement at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Event, Licensee may, as its sole and exclusive remedy and subject to the availability of suitable seating product as determined by Licensor, apply the Payment towards the use of an alternate, reasonably similar seating product for another mutually-agreeable event occurring at the Stadium within twelve (12) months of the Event (as scheduled as of the date of this Agreement). If the Agreement is fully-executed, and the Event is cancelled by the event promoter or Licensor for any reason (other than a Force Majeure event as described in Section 17), then Licensee shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to apply the Payment towards the use of an alternate, reasonably similar seating product for another mutually-agreeable event occurring at the Stadium within twelve (12) months of the Event (as scheduled as of the date of this Agreement) subject to the availability of suitable seating product as determined by Licensor. In the event that Licensor determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that it is necessary to relocate Licensee (and any Guests) from the Seating Product for any reason (other than a Force Majeure event as described in Section 17), then Licensee shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to apply the Payment towards the use of an alternate, reasonably similar seating product for either (x) the Event or (y) another mutually-agreeable event occurring at the Stadium within twelve (12) months of the Event (as scheduled as of the date of this Agreement), all subject to the availability of suitable seating product as determined by Licensor. With respect to substitute seating product described in this Section, the non-availability of appropriate substitute benefits hereunder shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement by Licensor and shall not entitle Licensee to any additional remedies, provided that Licensor has made good faith efforts to secure for and offer to Licensee such substitute seating product.
- Admission Tickets. Once the Agreement is fully executed and the Payment has been received by Licensor, then, and only then, shall Licensor distribute or provide access to, in advance of the Event (as determined by Licensor), the number of Seating Tickets sold to Licensee pursuant to this Agreement, to the contact identified by the Licensee above. Upon presentation of a Seating Ticket by Licensee or any person entering the Seating Product under a Seating Ticket provided through Licensee (“Licensee’s guests” or “Guests”), the holder of the Seating Ticket shall be entitled to access to and usage of the Seating Product for the Event subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Seating Tickets are subject to Licensor’s Ticket Disclaimer set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto (“Ticket Disclaimer”).
- Services. Licensee will have the option of food and beverage service in the Seating Product at the prevailing rates established by Licensor, to be billed directly to Licensee. Licensee will pay promptly all such charges and expenses, including applicable taxes, for catering and other services, incurred by Licensee in connection with the use of the Seating Product by Licensee or Guests. No food or beverages other than those purchased from Licensor from such designated caterer or from the concessionaires in the Stadium may be brought into or be prepared or consumed in the Seating Product. Failure to pay any charges or expenses for food, beverage and services by the date specified in the applicable invoice will be a default by Licensee under this Agreement. Licensor or the applicable caterer or concessionaire has the option in its sole discretion to require that a valid, effective credit card be put on file so that food and beverage services can be charged directly to that credit card.
- Taxes. Licensee agrees to pay, and to fully indemnify Licensor for the payment of, all taxes or surcharges that may be imposed by any governmental authority with respect to or on account of the license and use of the Seating Product or the provision or sale of tickets and other goods and services and benefits hereunder, including but not limited to all sales, privilege, rental, use, admissions, amusement, property, parking, ticket, television service or other governmental taxes, impositions or assessments together with any interest, additions or penalties with respect thereto and any interest in respect of such additions or penalties (“Taxes”). Licensee will pay any invoice for Taxes promptly upon receipt thereof.
- Additional Terms. In addition to the requirements imposed by this Agreement including, but not limited to, the Policies and Procedures set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (“Policies and Procedures”) and the Ticket Disclaimer, Licensor shall have the right to adopt and amend additional rules and regulations (collectively, the rules set forth herein including, but not limited to the Policies and Procedures and Ticket Disclaimer, as well as any additional rules and regulations, are referred to as the “Rules”) as Licensor deems desirable in its sole discretion for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Stadium and the preservation of good order within the Stadium. Notice of any additional Rules shall be given in any such manner as Licensor deems appropriate in its sole judgment. Licensee and Guests shall, while in the Seating Product or within the Stadium or on its grounds, comply with all state, county and local laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, those governing the sale, possession and consumption of alcoholic beverages (collectively, the “Laws”).

Licensee is responsible for the conduct of its Guests at all times. Licensor shall not be liable to the Licensee for any breach of the Rules or Laws by other patrons or visitors of the Stadium. If Licensor determines that Licensee or its Guests have violated any of the Rules or Laws, Licensor shall have the absolute right, in addition to any rights under applicable Law, to immediately eject Licensee and all Guests from the Seating Product and to terminate this Agreement, without any refund of the Payment or obligation by Licensor. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, THIS AGREEMENT WILL AT ALL TIMES BE SUBJECT TO THE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE NFL.
- No Transfers. Neither Licensee nor any Guests will cost-share, co-license, sell, assign, sublicense, pledge or otherwise transfer or encumber this Agreement, or any of Licensee’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or the Seating Product, without the prior written consent of Licensor, except as specifically set forth herein. Any attempted sale, assignment, sublicense, pledge, transfer or encumbrance in contravention of the foregoing will be null and void and of no effect. Licensor may assign any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of Licensee.
- Use of Seating Product. Except for ordinary wear and tear, Licensee will keep and maintain the Seating Product in good repair, order and condition and will reimburse Licensor for the repair of any damage caused to the Stadium and surrounding areas, the Seating Property or Licensor’s property in the Seating Property by Licensee or any Guests or other invitees. In light of Licensee’s rights under this Agreement, absent clear and convincing evidence to the contrary, all damage to the Seating Product will be presumed to have been caused by Licensee or its Guests or invitees, and Licensee will bear sole and exclusive responsibility for such damage. Licensee and its Guests and other invitees will at all times maintain proper decorum while using the Stadium, the Seating Product, and shall not create a nuisance, disturbance or act in an unreasonable manner which might interfere with any other person’s, including without limitation, the Licensor’s or any other licensee’s or guest’s, enjoyment of the luxury suite or seating areas or any other area in or around the Stadium. Licensee will strictly responsible for its actions as well as those of its Guests and invitees including, but not limited to, actions arising from the consumption of alcoholic beverages, and waives any rights it may have against the Indemnified Parties with respect thereto.

Should Licensee or any of its Guests or invitees create a disturbance or cause objects to be thrown or dropped from the Seating Product, Licensor will have the right to eject the parties responsible for such action, or all the persons in the Seating Product, from the confines of the Stadium and related parking or other areas, and to exercise any of Licensor’s rights under this Agreement including, without limitation, to terminate this Agreement. Licensee must give prompt notice to Licensor of any accident occurring in the Seating Product or of any deficiency in the services provided to or associated with the Seating Product; provided, however, Licensor will not be required to take any remedial action or bear any responsibility or liability with respect to such accident or deficiency (as applicable) except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

All discovery shall be completed within forty five (45) days from the date on which the respondent communicates its statement of defense and counterclaims, if any, to the claimant. The hearing shall be held no later than ninety (90) days following the selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law and allocate the costs and expenses of the arbitration, with appropriate interest as determined by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in all arbitration proceedings under this Agreement, the award of the arbitrator: (a) shall state the arbitrator’s decision with respect to each of the individual claims presented by each party; and (b) shall contain a detailed statement of the reasons supporting each such decision of the arbitrator, including all necessary findings of fact and conclusions of law. The award may not grant any relief that could not be granted by a court having jurisdiction over the Dispute under the law of Nevada.

Also in such case, the confidential information shall not be described in the arbitration award in such a manner as to be commercially useful.
- Prevailing Party. In the event any legal action is taken under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of arbitration and all other costs reasonable related to enforcement of its rights under this Agreement.
- Force Majeure. Licensor shall be excused from performance and shall not be considered to be in default with respect to any obligation hereunder, if and to the extent that its failure of, or delay in, performance is due to any cause beyond the reasonable control of the party affected, including, without limitation, drought, flood, earthquake, storm, fire, lightning, epidemic or pandemic (including any circumstances relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to federal, state or local policy requirements, seating restrictions, distancing guidelines, venue capacity and required entry requirements), power outage, war, riot, civil disturbance, sabotage, explosions, strikes, lock-outs or labor disputes, the existence of hazardous waste, unforeseen subsurface conditions, orders of any governmental entity, the absence, suspension, termination, interruption, denial, or failure of renewal of, or the pendency of any litigation relating to, any entitlements, applicable permits or any changes in Law (each being a “Force Majeure Event”).
