During the time when there is any balance owing on the State Note (as defined herein), the Annual Rent shall be
paid to Landlord through an Independent Collection Agent (as defined herein).
As used herein, the "Debt Service" shall mean the annual amounts that are due and payable by Tenant to
the State pursuant to that certain Promissory Note Secured by Deed of Trust made by Tenant in favor of the State
dated on or concurrently with the Commencement Date of the Lease (the "State Note"). Landlord and Tenant
acknowledge and agree that the State Note may be refinanced from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Lease and the other "Loan Documents" (as defined in the State Note) (the State Note and such other
Loan Documents being referred to herein, collectively, as the "State Loan Documents"). The Debt Service to be paid
under the State Note may not be changed without the prior written consent and authorization of Tenant, which
Tenant may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion.
As used herein, the "Deemed Annual Debt Service Amount' shall mean the applicable amount set forth on
Exhibit "D" attached hereto, notwithstanding any changes, modifications or refinancing of the State Note. At such
time as the State Note has been paid in full, the Annual Rent shall continue to include the applicable Deemed
Annual Debt Service Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, if Tenant elects to prepay any
installments of Debt Service due under the State Note for any applicable period(s), then the Annual Rent as
calculated above for the corresponding period(s) shall be based on the Debt Service installments so prepaid and not

-5-
.Zy�nyrTT�o�
the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be required to pay Landlord an additional sponsorship fee ("Sponsor Fee")
calculated and paid as provided in Exhibit "E" attached hereto.
3.4 Events Triggering Recalculated Annual Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this Lease, in the event of a Retriggering Event (as defined herein), the Annual Rent shall be recalculated to be the
"Fair Market Rent" as to the portion of the Property which is impacted by the particular Retriggering Event. The
adjustment of the Annual Rent to the Fair Market Rent will not become effective until the use of the applicable
portion of the Property which gave rise to the Triggering Event has actually been developed and issued a temporary
or permanent certificate of occupancy for the use contemplated by such Triggering Event. As used herein, the "Fair
Market Rent" shall mean the most probable price in terms of ground rent which the Property would bring if ground
leased in a competitive and open market under the conditions requisite to a fair transaction, and assuming the ground
rent is not affected by undue stimulus and taking into account the remaining Term of this Lease. Implicit in this
definition is the consummation of a transaction as of the relevant date under conditions whereby: (i) both parties are
typically motivated; (ii) both parties are well informed or well advised and each acting in what they consider their
own best interests; (iii) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (iv) payment is made in terms
of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; (v) financing, if any, is on terms
generally available in the community at the specified date and typical for the subject of the transaction in its locale;
(vi) the ground rent represents the normal consideration for a transaction unaffected by special or creative financing
or ground lease concessions granted by anyone associated with the transaction; and (vii) the use is consistent with
the use of the Property as of the date of the Retriggering Event (or the changed use based upon the particular
Retriggering Event). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.4, in no event shall the total Annual
Rent following any such adjustment be less than the greater of (i) the Annual Rent determined pursuant to
Section 3.1 hereof (without regard to any adjustment provided for herein) or (ii) the Annual Rent in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment.
Notwithstanding any approval of any change in use by Landlord, or any other provisions set forth herein permitting
any change or modification in type or intensity of use, Tenant must obtain all permits, licenses, environmental
approvals, entitlements or any other approvals required by any Applicable Laws (as defined herein).
(a) RetriggeringEvents. vents. The following shall constitute a "Retriggering Event" for purpose of
this Lease:
(1) Change in Use Not Permitted by General Plan. In the event that Tenant, with
Landlord's approval, and following compliance with all Applicable Laws, including the California
Environmental Quality Act ("CEOA") and action by the City and voter approval, changes the use
of the Property, or a portion thereof, to a use that is not permitted by the current General Plan
adopted January 22, 2002, by City Resolution No. 02-08, as amended by the amendment to the
General Plan text passed on February 16, 2010, by City Resolution No. 10-12 (collectively, the
"General Plan") and approved as Measure Con June 8, 2010 (the "Ballot Measure"), said change
in use shall constitute a Retriggering Event for purposes of the portion of the Property to which the
change in use applies. In such event, the portion of the Property affected by the change in use shall
have the Annual Rent for such portion adjusted to be the Fair Market Rent, and the Annual Rent
for the balance of the Property shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product of the Annual
Rent set forth in Section 3.1, multiplied by a fraction whose numerator is gross square footage of
land located within the remaining portion of the Property which is not affected by the change in
use and whose denominator is the gross square footage of all the land located within the Property.
Landlord acknowledges that the approval of a specific plan for the Property or any portion thereof
will not be a Triggering Event unless and to the extent the specific plan provides for a use which is
specifically prohibited by the General Plan or the Ballot Measure; provided, however, that in no
event shall the total Annual Rent payable following any such adjustment pursuant to this clause
(i) be less than the greater of (1) the Annual Rent determined pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof
(without regard to any adjustment provided for herein) or (2) the Annual Rent in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment.
(2) Lease Segregation. In the event that Tenant requests, and Landlord consents to
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the bifurcation of the
Lease to establish a separate leasehold estate for a portion of the Property (for reasons other than
-6-
.zy�nyrTT�ot
those imposed, or initiated, by Landlord), said lease segregation shall constitute a "Retriggering
Event" for purposes of the segregation. In such event, the Annual Rent for the portion of the
Property covered by the newly segregated lease shall be adjusted to be the Fair Market Rent, and
the Annual Rent for the balance of the Property shall be reduced to an amount equal to the product
of the Annual Rent set forth in Section 3.1, multiplied by a fraction whose numerator is the gross
square footage of land located within the remaining portion of the Property which has not been
included within the newly segregated lease and whose denominator is the gross square footage of
all land located within the Property; provided, however, that in no event shall the total Annual
Rent following any such adjustment pursuant to this clause (i) be less than the greater of (1) the
Annual Rent determined pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof (without regard to any adjustment
provided for herein) or (2) the Annual Rent in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(b) Fair Market Rent Determination. In the event a Retriggering Event has occurred or will
occur, Landlord and Tenant shall meet and attempt to agree upon the amount of such Fair Market Rent for
the portion of the Property affected by the Retriggering Event. If Landlord and Tenant reach agreement
with respect to the Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days (the "Outside Agreement Date"), then the
parties shall execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease to reflect such agreed upon Fair Market Rent.
In the event the parties are unable to agree as to the appropriate amount of the Fair Market Rent on or
before the Outside Agreement Date, thenbLdetermination of the Fair Market Rent shall be submitted to
appraisal in accordance with the provisions set forth below. If appraisal is required, the following shall
apply:
(1) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one appraiser who shall by profession
be an independent MAI certified appraiser who shall have been active over the five (5) year period
ending on the date of such appointment in the appraising of similar properties in Southern
California. The determination of the appraisers shall be limited solely to the issue of the actual
Fair Market Rent as determined by the appraisers, taking into account the requirements set forth
above in this Section 3.4. Each such appraiser shall be appointed within thirty (30) days after the
Outside Agreement Date.
(2) The two (2) appraisers so appointed shall within forty-five (45) days after the
date of the appointment of the last appointed appraiser proceed to determine the Fair Market Rent
and deliver a written report thereof to each of Landlord, Tenant and the other appraiser; provided,
however, that if either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoints its appraiser within the time permitted,
or if two (2) appraisers shall have been appointed but only one such appraiser shall have made
such determination and delivered a written report thereof to each of Landlord, Tenant and the
other appraiser within such forty-five (45) day period, then the determination of such sole
appraiser shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
(3) If the two (2) appraisers shall have been appointed and shall have made their
determinations within the requisite periods set forth above, and if the difference between the
amounts so determined shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the lesser of such amounts, then the
Fair Market Rent shall be an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the amounts so
determined, and shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If the difference between
the amounts so determined shall exceed five percent (5%) of the lesser of such amounts, then
within ten (10) business days after the determination of the Fair Market Rent by the last of the two
(2) appraisers, such two appraisers shall agree upon and appoint a third appraiser who shall be
qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two (2)
appraisers.
(4) If the two (2) appraisers fail to agree upon and appoint a third appraiser within
the time period set forth above, then the parties shall mutually select the third appraiser. If
Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the third appraiser within ten (10) business days,
then either party may, upon at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to the other party, request
the Presiding Judge of and for the Orange County Superior Court, acting in his private and non -
judicial capacity, to appoint the third appraiser. Following the appointment of the third appraiser,
the panel of appraisers shall within thirty (30) days thereafter reach a decision as to the Fair
-7-
.Zy�nyrTT�ot
Deleted: each party shall submit to the
other party a separate written
F
eted: within thirty (30) days after
Outside Agreement Date, and such
rminations
Market Rent within thirty (30) days after his or her appointment and to deliver a written report
thereof to each of Landlord, Tenant and the other two (2) appraisers.
(5) In the event a third appraiser is so appointed, the determination of the three
(3) appraisers which differs most in terms of dollar amount from the determinations of the other
two (2) appraisers shall be excluded, and fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the remaining two
determinations shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant as the Fair Market Rent.
(6) If the foregoing two (2) or three (3) appraiser system is utilized, then Landlord
and Tenant shall each pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by it and each shall pay
one-half of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser. Each party shall pay for the cost of its own
witnesses and attorneys.
(7) This provision for determination by appraisal shall be specifically enforceable to
the extent such remedy is available under Applicable Laws.
(8) If the process described hereinabove has not resulted in a determination of a
final Fair Market Rent rate by the date the Retriggering Event occurs, then the Annual Rent
payable during the last month prior to the Retriggering Event will be used until the appraiser(s)
reach a decision, and, following the determination by the appraiser(s), Tenant shall pay Landlord
any underpayment of Annual Rent made by Tenant, from the date of the Retriggering Event, plus
interest at the Prime Rate (as defined herein), plus one percent (1%).
(c) Amendment. After the Fair Market Rent is determined as provided above, Landlord and
Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease to establish the modified Annual Rent.
ARTICLE 4
ADDITIONAL RENT; PAYMENT OF RENT; TRIPLE NET LEASE
4.1 Additional Rent. All sums of money or charges required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease,
including the Sponsor Fee, but excluding the Annual Rent, are collectively referred to in this Lease as "Additional
Rent". If such amounts or charges are not paid at the time provided in this Lease, they shall nevertheless be
collectible as Additional Rent with the next installment of Annual Rent thereafter falling due, but nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to suspend or delay the payment of any amount of money or charge at the time the same
becomes due and payable hereunder or to limit any other remedy of Landlord. All amounts of Annual Rent and
Additional Rent payable in a given month (also collectively sometimes referred to in this Lease as "Rental") shall be
deemed to comprise a single rental obligation of Tenant to Landlord.
4.2 Failure to Pay: Interest. If Tenant fails to pay, when due and payable, the Annual Rent or any
Additional Rent, such unpaid amounts shall bear interest at the Interest Rate (as defined herein) from the date due to
the date of payment, compounded monthly, based upon actual days elapsed compared to a 360-day year.
4.3 Late Charge. The late payment of any installment of Annual Rental or Additional Rent will cause
Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs and processing and accounting
expenses and increased debt service ("Delinquency Costs"). Tenant shall receive, during the term hereof, a grace
period (each, a "Grace Period"), not to exceed five (5) days after the due date for any installment of Annual Rental
or Additional Rent. No Late Charge as defined herein shall be due as long as the applicable installment of Annual
Rental or Additional Rental is paid on or before the expiration of the applicable Grace Period. As to any installment
of Annual Rent or Additional Rent which Landlord has not received prior to the expiration of such Grace Period,
Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to three percent (3%) of the installment of Annual Rent or Additional Rent
payment which was not paid timely ("Late Charge") which is agreed to represent a reasonable estimate of the
Delinquency Costs incurred by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord shall
suffer as a result of Tenant's failure to pay such amounts is difficult to ascertain and said Late Charge is the best
estimate of the damage which Landlord shall suffer in the event of late payment. So long as any amounts remain
outstanding under the State Note, the Late Charge will be paid to the Independent Collection Agent to be applied
towards the payment of any late charges due under the State Note, and any remaining balance shall be paid to
-8-
.zy�nyrTT�ot
Landlord. If the State Note is no longer outstanding, then the Late Charges shall be paid directly to Landlord. Late
Charges due to Landlord are independent and separate from any Late Charges which Tenant may incur to State by
reason of any payment under the State's Note not being made on or before the due date as a result of Tenant's
failure to timely pay any installment of Annual Rent payable hereunder as and when due, though Landlord
acknowledges and agrees that the Independent Collection Agent will utilize the Late Charges paid by Tenant under
this Lease to satisfy any late charges which may be due under the State Note.
4.4 Address for Pam. All Annual Rent due and payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be
paid by Tenant to Landlord at (the "Independent Collection Agent') to help
ensure that all amounts due under the Note are kept current. The Independent Collection Agent shall utilize the
Rental to first pay the Debt Service directly to the State and any remaining amounts after the payment of the Debt
Service shall be paid to Landlord. Tenant shall ensure that Rental payments will be made to the Independent
Collection Agent in sufficient time o ensure Debt Service payments to the State and all remaining Rental amounts Deleted: for
to Landlord are received on or before the first day of each month in which the payments are due. Landlord and
Tenant agree to execute any agreements reasonably required by the Independent Collection Agent to effectuate the
foregoing, including those certain instructions attached hereto as Exhibit "F". In the event there is no further Debt
Service under the Note (i.e., the Note has been fully paid), all amounts paid by Tenant as Annual Rent hereunder
shall be paid directly to Landlord and the use of the Independent Collection Agent shall no longer be required. All
Additional Rent (except property taxes and Late Charges (if any amounts remain outstanding under the State Note)),
and other sums due to Landlord hereunder shall be paid directly to Landlord at the address set forth in Section 24.1
below and need not be paid to the Independent Collection Agent. Tenant shall be responsible to pay for all the fees
charged by the Independent Collection Agent.
4.5 Tenant Responsible for All Costs. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that this is a triple
net lease, and that except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, all obligations relating to the Property,
including without limitation, all Annual Rent, Additional Rent, assessments and costs of compliance under all
Applicable Laws; insurance costs and taxes shall be the sole and exclusive obligation of Tenant. Landlord shall not
be responsible or liable for any expenses whatsoever in connection with the maintenance and upkeep of the Property
except the Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant to receive the funds for the ADA Work (as defined herein) from the
State.
4.6 Fair Market Rent. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges
and agrees that Landlord has determined that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, the Rental under this Lease is
not less than the fair market rental value of the Premises.
ARTICLE 5
TAXES
5.1 Taxes. Commencing on the Commencement Date, and continuing for the balance of the Lease
Term, Tenant agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, without setoff or deduction, as Additional Rent, the amount of all

Tenant or both in the Property or the improvements thereon, including without limitation: (a) any impositions by

to by Landlord) in substitution, partially or totally, of any impositions now or previously included within the
definition of real property taxes; (b) any impositions upon this Lease or any document to which Tenant is a party,
S

or charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees "in -lieu"
of any such tax or assessment). However, Tenant shall in no event be obligated to pay Landlord's general income,
inheritance, gift or estate taxes. In addition, in no event shall Tenant be responsible for paying any increases in
Taxes that are directly attributable to Landlord's sale or transfer of fee title to the Property that constitutes a "change
in ownership" for purposes of real property taxes and assessments against the Property, other than a sale or transfer
by Landlord to Tenant or any Affiliate (as defined herein) of Tenant; it being agreed that any such increases that are
triggered by such a "change in ownership" as a result of a sale or transfer by Landlord (other than to Tenant or an
Affiliate of Tenant) shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord; provided, however, that it is further agreed that any
such increases imposed as a result of a "change in ownership" of Tenant's interest in this Lease or the Premises or
the acquisition of the Property by Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant shall at all times be the sole responsibility of
Tenant.
Any Taxes relating to a fiscal period of the taxing authority, only a part of which period is included within
the Lease Tenn, shall be prorated as between Landlord and Tenant so that Tenant shall pay the portion attributable
to any period during the Lease Term. Tenant's obligation to pay Taxes that accrued during the Lease Term shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Tenant shall have the right to contest any Taxes or the increase in any Taxes which Tenant is obligated to
pay under this Lease; provided, however, Tenant shall (i) give Landlord written notice of any such intention to
contest at least thirty (30) days before any delinquency could occur, (ii) indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from
all liability on account of said contest, (iii) take such action as is necessary to remove the effect of any lien which
attaches to the Parcel or the improvements thereon due to such contest, and (iv) in the event of a final determination

fines, interest, costs and expenses which may have accrued.

upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, Improvements, inventories and other personal property (including all of
Tenant's Personal Property, as defined herein) located and/or installed on the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant,

paid.
ARTICLE 6

6.1 Permitted Uses. Subject to compliance with all Applicable Laws, including CEQA and any review
required by such Applicable Laws, Tenant shall have the right to use the Premises for any and all uses permitted by
the General Plan and the Ballot Measure (collectively, the "Approved Uses"). Subject to compliance with all
Applicable Laws, including CEQA and any review required by such Applicable Laws, Tenant shall have the right to
re -size, relocate and change the existing operations within the Property (except that the equestrian center and
Centennial Farm shall in no event be down -sized without Landlord's approval, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld) so long as: (a) the Required Operations (as defined herein) are continued; (b) the use and operation is
consistent with the General Plan and the Ballot Measure; and (c) Tenant provides Landlord with prior written notice
of any change in the proposed use of the Property. Any use which is not consistent with the General Plan or the

approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any required permits have been
obtained, including any General Plan amendment necessary to permit such use has been processed and approved by
the City Council of the City and has been approved by the voters of the City as required by the Ballot Measure.
Landlord and Tenant expressly acknowledge that the provisions of the Ballot Measure apply to the Premises
notwithstanding any other Applicable Law to the contrary. Regardless of any change in the General Plan or the

-10-
.zy�nyrTT�o�
or convention, and which is characterized by an emphasis on "specified sexual activities" and/or "specified
anatomical areas," as those terms are defined in CMMC Sections 9-448 and 13-130, or which would qualify as a
"sexually -oriented business" as defined in CMMC Sections 9-448(a) and 13-130 if it were operated on an on -going
basis, or (ii) license, permit, authorize or allow any "rave" or a "rave parry" (as defined below). For purposes of the

at loud decibels for extended periods of time, whether commonly so -named or hereinafter commonly referred to as
such. An example of a "rave" is the rave event held at the L.A. Coliseum on or about June 25, 2010. A "rave" or
"rave parry" shall not include "Grad Nite" events, proms, formals or any other similar events involving students or
persons under the age of 21 with adult chaperones.
Notwithstanding any approval of any change in use by Landlord, or any other provisions set forth above
permitting any change or modification in type or intensity of use, Tenant must obtain all permits, licenses,
environmental approvals, entitlements or any other approvals required by any Applicable Laws. Tenant further
specifically acknowledges that the Approved Uses may be conducted at an increased intensity only up to and
including the intensity contemplated by the Environmental Impact Report prepared for the Orange County Fair and
Exposition Center Master Plan, certified by the Orange County Fair Board in September 2003 (the "EIR"). By way
of example, Tenant may increase intensity of use as to non -Fair events, to the level contemplated in the EIR, and
may make re -use of the existing amphitheater, to the level contemplated in the EIR and subject to the noise
mitigation measures set forth in the EIR, and any applicable judgments, injunctions and settlement agreements, for
re -use of the amphitheater. However, no re -location of any Improvements or other construction activities is
permitted without compliance with Applicable Laws. In no case shall operations under this Lease exceed activity or
intensity levels contemplated in the EIR without application to, and review by, the City and other applicable
Governmental Agencies as to such increased or changed activities. Alterations, improvements or maintenance
activities relating to Existing Improvements on the Property, for instance, are required to be approved by the City
and any other applicable Governmental Agencies in accordance with all Applicable Laws. Tenant expressly
acknowledges that any intensification in use of the Premises beyond its current uses, whether or not contemplated by
the EIR, are subject to all Applicable Laws and may require additional permitting, licensing or approvals prior to
such intensification.
6.2 Operating Covenant. During the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall continue the operations on the
Property described in Exhibit "H" (collectively, the "Required Operations") at its sole cost and expense and at least
at their current levels of operation as required in Exhibit "H", unless otherwise mutually agreed to by Landlord and
Tenant and subject to compliance with all Applicable Laws. Landlord shall have the right to review all Required
Operations at such intervals as it deems appropriate for the sole purpose of ensuring that they are being funded and
operated by Tenant as required by this Lease, and shall have the right to give direction to Tenant to correct any
deficiencies in such Required Operations as required by the Lease with reasonable notice to allow correction by
Tenant of any such deficiencies. As to the community uses identified in Exhibit "H", Attachment 3 ( the
"Community Uses"), the parties agree that these uses include both contracted and non -contracted uses, and that the
schools, community groups and non-profit organizations which are currently engaged in Community Uses on the
Premises will likely change over time, but it is expressly intended by the parties that Community Uses continue on
the Premises at substantially the same level as they occurred during 2009 and 2010, subject to reasonable scheduling
and insurance requirements. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that some of the Community Uses pay for the right
to conduct such uses on the Premises, and that Tenant will hereafter determine the amount such Community Uses
will be charged. Tenant and Landlord shall jointly develop a non-profit events policy (the "Community Use
Policy") the purpose of which is to ensure that eligible Community, Educational and Non -Profit groups are provided
fair, non-discriminatory opportunities for access to use of the Premises, to help ensure Community Uses will
continue at the same level provided for during 2009 and 2010 and consistent with Tenant's operations, to set forth
the process through which eligible Community, Educational and Non -Profit groups may apply for a proposed
Community Use and to ensure that Community Uses supporting the arts, sports, children, education and cultural
events are given the fair opportunity to be considered as one of the Community Uses to be provided for at the
Property. In addition during the annual review of the Tenant's Business Plans, the parties agree to review the
number and types of Community Uses on the Premises to ensure compliance with this provision. The parties further
specifically agree that some of the current Community Uses are operated by groups which are treated as tenants on
the Premises, and who use office space and facilities for their non-profit organizational functions, including the All
American Boys Chorus and Cooperative Extension (a Governmental Agency which is part of the UC system), by
way of example. Tenant shall make commercially reasonable efforts to continue to accommodate these and similar
M
.Zy�nyrTT�o�
tenants on the Premises, who the Parties agree contribute to the success of the Annual Fair, Centennial Farm, and the
agricultural and cultural programs held on the Premises, so that the Community Uses will continue at their current
levels.
Both Tenant and Landlord recognize that prospective sponsorship/naming rights to the Property may be
economically advantageous and beneficial in identifying the venue throughout Southern California. Tenant agrees
that the name of the fair to be held upon the Property shall primarily be referred to as the "Orange County Fair" or
the "OC Fair" unless Landlord approves a modification to such requirement (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld), provided that, the foregoing shall in no way restrict Tenant's right, without Landlord's
consent, to add sponsorships and similar references to the name of the "Orange County Fair" or the "OC Fair."
Tenant also agrees that the main name for the Property shall always include a primary reference to anyone of "OC,"
"Orange County" or "Costa Mesa" unless Landlord approves a modification to such requirement (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld), provided that the foregoing shall in no way restrict Tenant's right, without
Landlord's consent, to add sponsorships and similar references to the name of the Property. Tenant agrees that the
name of the Property and the name of the fair to be held at the Property will not include any reference to names,
sponsors or businesses that are primarily associated with adult -only entertainment or similar uses which are
incompatible with the Required Operations. Tenant acknowledges that any such approval by Landlord to any such
change in the name of the fair or the Property must be conducted as a matter of public business at a regularly or
specially scheduled meeting of Landlord. If Landlord's approval is required for a change to the name of the Property
or the fair as provided above, Landlord shall respond to such request within thirty (30) days, and if Landlord does
not approve of a requested change, Landlord must set forth the specific reasons for denying such approval.
If Tenant hereafter operates a skate park upon the Property and as part of a skate park has built a
surrounding park area where people may watch the skateboarders within the skate_park, enant�ees that it will not Deleted: Landlord
charge any fee to be within such park area, provided, that, if any special events, promotions or competitions are
conducted within the skate park, then Tenant may charge spectators to be admitted to such park areas. Tenant is in
no way obligated to construct or operate a skate_park upon the Property.

changed so as to require during the Term of the Lease, any alteration of the Premises, or the reinforcement
of any other physical modification of the Premises, Tenant shall be solely responsible for such cost and
expense, unless Tenant's obligation to comply with the change in the Applicable Laws has been
"grandfathered" or is otherwise exempted from compliance. Landlord agrees to cooperate with Tenant to
minimize the impact of any new Applicable Laws on the Property and agrees to cooperate with any
challenge to Applicable Laws made by Tenant, except that this requirement shall not apply if the
Applicable Law being challenged by Tenant is a law, policy, or regulation of the City. It is hereby

provision of this Lease; provided, however, that any legal counsel selected by Tenant to defend Landlord shall be
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and, if there are any conflicts of interest that cannot be waived, any such
counsel retained by Tenant to defend Landlord shall be separate, independent counsel from any counsel selected by
Tenant to defend Tenant. In addition, whether or not any legal counsel retained by Tenant to defend Landlord is
joint counsel to Tenant or separate, independent counsel, to the extent Landlord is a Governmental Agency, Tenant
shall also be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of Landlord's counsel in providing oversight to any
such outside counsel so retained by Tenant. All indemnification covenants set forth in this Section 9.1 or elsewhere
in this Lease are intended to apply to Losses incurred directly by the indemnified parties and their property, as well
as by the indemnifying party or third party, and their property. For purposes of this Section 9.1 and the other
indemnification obligations of Tenant under this Lease, any acts or omissions of Tenant, or by employees, agents,
assignees, contractors, subcontractors or others acting for or on behalf of Tenant (whether or not they are negligent,
intentional, willful or unlawful), shall be strictly attributable to Tenant. It is understood and agreed that payment

such umbrella or excess liability policy is at least as broad in all material respects as that afforded by the
underlying CGL Policy as primary policy, supplemented with an excess umbrella policy.

those required by applicable state and federal statute, and covering all persons employed by Tenant in the
conduct of its operations on the Premises, together with employer's liability insurance coverage in the

Term, Tenant may procure and maintain any insurance not required by this Lease, but all such insurance

Landlord and Tenant. At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall obtain such additional insurance coverage or
policies as may be reasonably necessary to provide coverage for the Premises consistent with coverage
generally recommended and in place for similar property in the geographic area in which the Property is
located, provided that in no event shall Tenant be obligated to provide coverage for earthquake, flood or
terrorism. Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days following Landlord's request, provide evidence of any such
new insurance coverage.
All insurance policies required by express provisions hereof shall be carried only in insurance companies
licensed to do business in the State, with an A.M. Best rating of at least A -IX, and otherwise reasonably acceptable
to Landlord and, for so long as any obligations under the State Note are outstanding, the State, provided, that
Landlord shall reasonably consider insurance policies which do not satisfy the foregoing rating requirements so long
as such policies are approved by the State if the State Note is outstanding. All insurance policies shall also name
Landlord and Landlord's mortgagees or trust deed beneficiaries as "additional insureds", including the State so long
as any obligations under the State Note are outstanding. Tenant agrees that a loss payable endorsement will be
issued to the State for the policies of insurance under subparagraph (d) and (e) in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the deed of trust which encumbers the Property and secures the State Note pursuant to the State Loan
Documents. Certificates of the foregoing insurance shall be delivered to Landlord and the State concurrently with
Tenant's execution of this Lease, and thereafter executed copies of renewal certificates thereof shall be delivered to

deed beneficiaries as "additional insureds", including the State so long as any obligations under the State Note are
outstanding. As often as any policy shall expire or terminate, renewal or additional policies shall be procured and
maintained by Tenant in like manner and to like extent. All public liability, property damage or other casualty
policies shall be written as primary policies, not contributing with or secondary to coverage which Landlord may
carry. All deductibles and/or self -insured retentions for any policies required to be or otherwise maintained by
Tenant under this Lease shall be commercially reasonable and in any event no greater than those deductibles and/or
self -insured retentions maintained by similarly situated owners or tenants (including with similar financial
wherewithal) under insurance policies affording the same coverage(s) for similar property in the geographic area in
which the Property is located. No policy of insurance issued as to which the Landlord or City is an additional
insured shall contain a provision which requires, in substance, that no party except the named insured can satisfy any
such deductible or self -insured retention.
Tenant's obligations to carry the insurance provided for above may be satisfied by inclusion of the
Premises within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by
Tenant; provided, however, that Landlord and those persons or entities identified in the preceding paragraph shall be
named as additional insureds thereunder as their interests may appear and that the coverage afforded Landlord will
not be reduced or diminished by reason of the use of such blanket policies of insurance, and provided further that the
requirements set forth herein are otherwise satisfied.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, for so long as any obligations under the State Note
remain outstanding, Tenant shall at all times obtain, maintain and comply with all insurance requirements under the
State Loan Documents.
9.3 Waiver of Rights. Tenant (for itself and its insurer) hereby waives any rights, including rights of
subrogation, that Tenant may have against Landlord for compensation for any loss or damage occasioned to Tenant
with regard to its property and the Premises. All insurance policies carried by Tenant with regard to its property and
the Premises, including contents, fire and casualty insurance, shall expressly waive any right of subrogation on the
part of the insurer against Landlord.
9.4 Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord,
hereby assumes all risk of damage to property including, but not limited to, Buildings, fixtures, equipment, furniture
and alterations or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises arising from any cause, and Tenant hereby
expressly releases Landlord and waives all Losses in respect thereof against Landlord, except only such Losses as
are caused solely by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct, subject to Section 9.3 above.

or warranty by Tenant and without any compensation to, or requirement of consent or other act of Tenant and

("ADA Reimbursement"). Upon receiving said funds from the State (if same have not been delivered directly to
Tenant), Landlord shall promptly deliver the funds to Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith
to obtain said funds as soon as possible following the Commencement Date. Except for Landlord's express
obligation set forth above with respect to obtaining funds for the ADA Work, Tenant shall be solely responsible for
the Deferred Maintenance, which Deferred Maintenance will be addressed by Tenant to bring the Property into good
condition and repair in accordance with the performance schedule set forth on Exhibit "I" and in compliance with

(i) is to remedy a pre-existing condition satisfying an obligation of the State of California pursuant to the Agreement
and Settlement and Release arising out of the matter entitled Schneider v. State of California, et al., and (ii) the
receipt and use of the funds by Tenant was factored into the negotiations establishing the fair market rental value of
the Premises under this Lease (i.e., Tenant would have otherwise paid less under this Lease had Tenant not assumed
the obligation to perform the ADA Work), (iii) Tenant is obtaining no public benefit from the receipt of the ADA
Reimbursement, and (iv) Tenant's performance of the ADA Work may require the payment of prevailing wages,
and if so paid, the ADA Reimbursement shall be limited solely to the ADA Work. In the event that Tenant is able to
complete the ADA Work for less than the amount of the ADA Reimbursement, Tenant shall refund any remaining
funds to the State within sixty (60) days after completion of the ADA Work.

worth and/or stability to support Tenant in light of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, provided, that, so

15.9 Landlord's Right of First Negotiation.
(a) If during the Term of this Lease, Tenant desires to sell and assign Tenant's entire
leasehold interest in this Lease to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Tenant (a "Third Party Sale"), Tenant
shall provide Landlord with a right of first negotiation to purchase Tenant's leasehold interest in this Lease,
upon the terms and conditions more particularly set forth herein. In the event Tenant desires to sell its
leasehold interest in this Lease pursuant to a Third Parry Sale, Tenant shall first give prior written notice (a"
Sale Notice") of such desire to Landlord.
(b) For a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of the Sale Notice, Landlord and Tenant
shall negotiate exclusively regarding the sale of Tenant's leasehold interest in this Lease to Landlord;
provided, however, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be obligated to agree upon any such sale or upon any
specific terms or conditions as to any such sale, including, without limitation, the purchase price. If
Landlord and Tenant fail to negotiate and execute a definitive agreement regarding Landlord's purchase of
Tenant's leasehold interest in this Lease within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be entitled to place
the sale of its leasehold interest under the Lease on the open market for sale to third parties on terms and
conditions as may be determined by Tenant in its sole and absolute discretion and without regard to any
terms or conditions discussed and/or negotiated by Landlord and Tenant during said thirty (30) day period.

(c) Landlord's right of first negotiation as provided herein shall be extinguished if Landlord
and Tenant fail to negotiate and execute a definitive agreement within the thirty (30) day period described
in Section 15.9(b) hereof.
15.10 Exclusivity of the Fair at the Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease or
the License, Tenant acknowledges that a material consideration for Landlord's execution and delivery of this Lease
is the agreement by Tenant that during the period of time (the "Non -Competition Period") the "Annual Fair" (as
defined in Exhibit "H" and Attachment 1 to Exhibit "H" to the Lease) upon the Property is operating and open to the
public, Tenant will not operate and open to the public a "fair" within Orange County, California which is
substantially similar in size and scope to the Annual Fair (a "Competing Fair"). Accordingly, Tenant hereby
covenants and agrees that during the Non -Competition Period, neither Tenant nor any Affiliate of Tenant shall,
directly or indirectly, run or operate a Competing Fair nor grant to any other Person the right to run or operate a
Competing Fair, including, without limitation, by way of assignment, license, management agreement or otherwise,
on any other property or at any other location in either case within Orange County, California. Landlord
acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing restriction only applies during the Non -Competition Period, and Tenant
therefore has the unfettered right to operate,CoWcting�Fairs in Orate County, California so long as such Deleted: ing
Competing Fairs are not operating and open to the public at the same time the Annual Fair upon the Property is
-24-
.Zy�nyrTT�o�
operating and open to the public. Tenant also agrees that it will not at any time during the Term of this Lease or
following the expiration or earlier termination this Lease use the name of "Orange County Fair" in any Competing
Fair Tenant may operate at any time in the State of California. Tenant further agrees that it will not at any time
during the tern of this Lease on its own initiative plan and develop a Competing Fair in any city which is adjacent to
the City of Costa Mesa, provided, that, if another Person that which is not an Affiliate of Tenant has initiated the
planning, development and/or operation of a Competing Fair within any city which is adjacent to the City of Costa
Mesa, Tenant shall not be precluded from acquiring and operating such Competing Fair subject to the other
restrictions set forth in this Section 15.10. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the time span, scope and area
covered by the covenants set forth in this Section 15.10 are reasonable and that it is the specific intent of Tenant that
such covenants shall be valid and enforceable as specifically set forth in this Section 15.10. Tenant further agrees
that such covenants are special, unique, extraordinary and reasonably necessary for the protection of Landlord and
that the violation of any such covenants by Tenant (or its Affiliates) would cause irreparable damage to Landlord for
which a legal remedy alone would not be sufficient to fully protect Landlord. Therefore, in addition to, and without
limiting any other remedies available at law or under this Lease to Landlord by reason of an Event of Default by
Tenant under this Lease, in the event that Tenant (or its Affiliates) breaches any of the covenants set forth in this
Section 15.10 or shall threaten breach of any of such covenants, then Landlord shall be entitled to obtain equitable
remedies, including specific performance and injunctive relief, to prevent or otherwise restrain a breach of this
Section 15.10 (without the necessity of posting a bond or other security) and to recover any and all costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs) reasonably incurred in
enforcing the provisions of this Section 15.10. The existence of any claim or cause of action of Tenant (or its
Affiliate) against Landlord, whether predicated on this Lease or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the
enforcement by Landlord of the covenants set forth in this Section 15.10 and Tenant (and its Affiliates)) shall not
defend on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at law. Without limiting any other provision of this Lease,
Landlord and Tenant further acknowledge and agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 15.10 are severable
and separate. If at any time any of such covenants shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable by a court having
jurisdiction over this Lease, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration, or geographic scope or scope
of activities restricted, or for any other reason, such covenants shall be considered divisible as to such portion and
such covenants shall be immediately amended and reformed to include only such covenants as are deemed
reasonable and enforceable by the court having jurisdiction over this Lease to the full duration, geographic scope
and scope of restrictive activities deemed reasonable and thus enforceable by said court; and Landlord and Tenant
agree that such covenants as so amended and reformed, shall be valid and binding as tbpugh the invalid or Deleted: r
unenforceable portion had not been included herein. The provisions of this Section 15.10 not shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, except that the prohibition against Tenant using the name of "Orange
County Fair" shall survive.

election not to rebuild, repair or restore (which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold). The obligation

MORTGAGE; SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT
As used in this Lease, all references to a "mortgage" shall be deemed to include a deed of trust, and all
references to the "holder" of a mortgage or to a "mortgagee" shall be deemed to include the beneficiary and/or
trustee under a deed of trust. In addition to the deed of trust in favor of the State pursuant to the State Loan
Documents, at any time following the occurrence of the Guaranty Termination Date, and without the consent of
Tenant, Landlor , from time to time, direct or indirect, create or otherwise cause to exist any other Deleted: Lessor
mortgage upon the Property or any part(s) or portion(s) thereof or interests therein. In such event, upon written
request of Landlord, or a mortgagee of Landlord, Tenant will subordinate, pursuant to such document(s) as the
mortgagee may require, its rights hereunder to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or to any covenants, conditions
and restrictions or any amendments thereto, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security
thereof, provided that the mortgagee shall enter into a non -disturbance agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to
Tenant and upon customary terms and conditions providing that Tenant's rights under the Lease shall not be
disturbed, affected or impaired, nor will the Lease be terminated or affected, as a result of the foreclosure of such
mortgagee or deed of trust or any other action taken pursuant to such mortgagee or deed of trust.
In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale
under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser
upon any such foreclosure, sale or lease termination and recognize such purchaser as landlord under this Lease,
provided that the purchaser shall acquire and accept the Premises subject to this Lease. Tenant shall execute and
deliver to Landlord such document(s) to confirm Tenant's agreement to so attorn within twenty (20) days following
written request therefor, which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Tenant.
Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time and within twenty (20) days after written request from
Landlord, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord or any mortgagee of Landlord an estoppel certificate in a
commercially reasonable form, (a) certifying that this Lease represents the entire agreement between Landlord and
Tenant, and is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and
certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the dates to which the Rental and other
charges are paid in advance, if any; (b) certifying the commencement and termination dates of the Lease Term;
-36-
OC\1076665.10
(c) certifying that there has been no assignment or other transfer by Tenant of this Lease, or any interest therein;
(d) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder
and that Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rental, or specifying such defaults if any
are claimed together with the amount of any offset, counterclaim or deduction alleged by Tenant; and (e) certifying
or acknowledging such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request. Tenant's failure to deliver such statement
within such time shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without
modification except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's
performance and that Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rental and that no more than
one month's Rental has been paid in advance, it being understood, however, that such presumed certification shall
not relieve Tenant from its obligations under this paragraph. It is intended that any such statement delivered
pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of Landlord's interest in the
Premises or as Landlord under this Lease. If any such certification by Tenant shall allege nonperformance by
Landlord, the nature and extent of such nonperformance shall, insofar as actually known by Tenant, be summarized
therein.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, unless the Guaranty Termination Date has occurred,
and for so long as no Event of Default by Tenant shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, Landlord will not
modify any of the State Loan Document to which Landlord is a party with the State without Tenant's prior written
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

recover pursuant to Section 12 below (collectively, the "Maximum Guaranteed Amount"); and (2) this Guaranty
shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the first date upon which the outstanding
principal balance owing under the State Note shall be reduced to an amount equal to or less than Seventy Million
Dollars ($70,000,000.00), whether through payment, prepayment or the written forgiveness of any indebtedness due
under the Note, provided that any amount that is so forgiven under the State Note is no longer secured by, or
enforceable against, any assets of the Landlord pursuant to the State Loan Documents or otherwise, including,
without limitation, Landlord's interest in the Premises or Personal Property (the "Guaranty Termination Date").
Landlord agrees that it will not refinance the State Note unless and until the Guaranty Termination Date has
occurred without the consent of Guarantor. Guarantor and Landlord acknowledge and agree that any accrued and
unpaid interest, late charges, default interest or any other sums which may be due under the State Note or the other
State Loan Documents to which Tenant is a party and that are added to the outstanding principal balance of the State
Note in accordance with the terns of the State Loan Documents prior to the Guaranty Termination Date, including,
without limitation, the interest that will accrue during the first four years of the State Note, will be added to the
outstanding principal balance of the State Note for purposes of calculating the Maximum Guaranteed Amount and
the Guaranty Termination Date. In addition, for purposes of calculating the Maximum Guaranteed Amount and the
Guaranty Termination Date, the outstanding principal balance owing under the State Note shall include all amounts
which would be owing under the State Note, but for the effect of the federal Bankruptcy Code or any other state or
local debtor relief law.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Landlord's agreement to execute the Lease and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor does hereby
agree with Landlord as follows:
1. The Lease is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Guaranty by this reference.
Subject to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount, Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantees to Landlord, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, without
deduction by reason of setoff, defense or counterclaim, the full and punctual payment of all sums
of Rental and other amounts payable under the Lease, including any such Rental or other amounts
that would be owing under the Lease, but for the effect of the federal Bankruptcy Code or any
other state or local debtor relief law. Subject to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount, Guarantor's
obligations under this Guaranty are continuing and unconditional, but shall automatically
terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the Guaranty Termination Date. Landlord
acknowledges and agrees that the Tenant will have the right under the Ground Lease at any time
after the expiration of the fourth year of the term of the Lease to prepay the "Debt Service"

component of the "Annual Rent" (as such terms are defined in the Lease) due under the Lease
directly to the State as a prepayment of principal in order to terminate the Guaranty by reducing
the outstanding principal balance of the Note to an amount equal to or less than $70,000,000. Until
the Guaranty Termination Date, any partial payments or satisfaction of any sums of Rental or
other amounts payable under the Leases, either by way of partial payment or amounts credited or
deemed credited against the amounts due under the Lease upon realization by Landlord of any
collateral or other security for the for payment thereof shall be deemed to apply in the following
order of priority (the "Payment Priority"):
a. First, to all costs and other expenses incurred by Landlord in collecting any such
recoveries or realizing upon any such collateral; and
b. Second, to the extent of any accrued and unpaid amounts then owing by Tenant to
Landlord on account of the Debt Service component of Annual Rent, to such amounts;
c. Third, to the extent of any other amounts then owing by Tenant to Landlord (i.e., other
than any accrued and unpaid amounts owing on account of the Debt Service component
of Annual Rent), to such amounts;
d. Fourth, to any future Debt Service component of Annual Rent coming due under the
Lease; and
e. Finally, to any other amounts that may thereafter be payable or become payable by
Tenant under the Lease (i.e., other than any future Debt Service component of Annual
Rent coming due under the Lease).
From and after the Guaranty Termination Date, Landlord shall be entitled to apply any and all any
partial payments or satisfaction of any sums of Rental or other amounts payable under the Leases
in such manner and order of priority as Landlord shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.
Any payments owing by Guarantor to Landlord pursuant to this Guaranty shall be made to
Landlord in immediately available federal funds to an account designated by Landlord. Any and
all payments made by or collected from Guarantor shall be applied in accordance with the Payment
Priority until the Guaranty Termination Date, and Landlord agrees that any such payments which
are attributable to the Debt Service component of the Annual Rent shall be immediately paid to the
State to be applied against the outstanding amounts due under the State Note.
In such manner, upon such terms and at such times as Landlord in its sole discretion deems
necessary or expedient, and without notice to or consent by Guarantor, which notice and consent
are hereby expressly waived by Guarantor, Landlord may alter, compromise, accelerate, extend or
change the time or manner for the payment or the performance of any of the obligations of Tenant
under the Lease; extend, amend, segregate or terminate the Lease; release Tenant or any other
party of its obligations under the Lease by consent to any assignment (or otherwise) as to all or
any portion of such obligations; release, substitute or add any one or more guarantors, tenants or
subtenants; accept additional or substituted security for any of Tenant's or any other party's
obligations under the Lease; or release or subordinate any security for any of Tenant's or any other
party's obligations under the Lease. No exercise or non -exercise by Landlord of any right hereby
given Landlord, no neglect or delay in connection with exercising any such right, no dealing by
Landlord with Tenant, any other guarantor or any other Person, and no change, impairment,
release or suspension of any right or remedy of Landlord against any Person, including Tenant and
any other guarantor or other Person, shall in any way affect any of the obligations of Guarantor
hereunder or any security furnished by Guarantor or give Guarantor any recourse or right of offset
against Landlord. If Owner has exculpated Tenant or any other Person from liability in whole or in
part and/or agreed to look solely to the Premises, any security for any of Tenant's or any other
party's obligations under the Lease or any other asset for the satisfaction thereof, such exculpation
and/or agreement shall not affect the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, it being understood that
Guarantor's obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of Tenant, any other

guarantor and any other Person, and are to be construed as if no such exculpation or agreement
had been given to Tenant, any other guarantor or any other Person. It is further understood and
agreed that if any such exculpation or agreement has been or at any time hereafter is given to
Tenant, any other guarantor or any Person, Landlord has done or will do so in reliance upon the
agreement of Guarantor expressed herein.
4. Guarantor hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives and relinquishes any and all rights and
remedies now or hereafter accorded by Applicable Law to sureties and/or guarantors or any other
accommodation parties, under any statutory provision, common law or any other provision of law,
custom or practice, and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such rights or remedies,
including, without limitation: (a) any right to require Landlord to proceed against Tenant, or any
other guarantor or Person or to pursue any other security or remedy before proceeding against
Guarantor; (b) any defense based on the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Lease; (c) any right or defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death
or disability of Tenant or any other person; and (d) any right or defense arising by reason of the
absence, impairment, modification, limitation, destruction or cessation (in bankruptcy, by an
election of remedies, or otherwise) of the liability of Tenant, of the subrogation rights of
Guarantor or of the right of Guarantor to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby
expressly waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any and all benefits which might
otherwise be available to guarantors under the laws of the State of California, or any other
jurisdiction, including, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and
contribution, including under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, and any
similar or analogous statutes of California or any other jurisdiction, in each instance to the extent
such laws, or any one of them, are applicable to this Guaranty or any of the obligations guaranteed
hereunder.
5. Without limiting the provisions of Section 4 hereof, Guarantor hereby further knowingly and
voluntarily waives and relinquishes and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (a) any right or
defense based on the absence of any or all presentments, demands, notices and protests of each
and every kind; (b) the defense of any statute of limitations in any action under or related to this
Guaranty or the Lease; and (c) any right or defense based on a lack of diligence or failure or delay
by Landlord in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty or the Lease.
6. Without limiting the provisions of Section 4 hereof, Guarantor hereby further knowingly and
voluntarily waives and relinquishes and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any right to
(a) exoneration if Landlord's actions shall impair any security or collateral of Guarantor; (b) any
security or collateral held by Landlord; (c) require Landlord to proceed against or exhaust any
security or collateral before proceeding against Guarantor; (d) require Landlord to pursue any right
or remedy for the benefit of Guarantor; or (e) any law providing that the obligations of a guarantor
must not be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or
which reduces a guarantor's obligation in proportion to the principal obligation.
Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty shall in no way be affected by any bankruptcy,
reorganization or insolvency of Tenant or any successor or assignee of Tenant or by any
disaffirmance or abandonment of the Lease or any payment under this Guaranty by a trustee of
Tenant in any bankruptcy proceeding including, without limitation, any impairment, limitation, or
modification of the liability of Tenant or the estate of Tenant in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for
the enforcement of Tenant's liability under the Lease resulting from the operation of any present
or future provision of any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law or other statute or from the
decision of any court. In the event any payment by Tenant to Landlord is held to constitute a
preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise required to be returned by Landlord, such payment
by Tenant to Landlord shall not in any way diminish Guarantor's obligations hereunder and this
Guaranty shall continue to be effective.
8. Until all of the obligations owing under the Lease have been satisfied and discharged in full,
Guarantor shall not exercise its right of subrogation and Guarantor hereby waives any right to Deleted: K

enforce any remedy which Landlord now has or may hereafter have against Tenant, any other
guarantor or any other Person and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or
other assets now or hereafter held by Landlord with respect to the Lease. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, upon the Guaranty Termination Date, each of FMW, Fait and Pyle shall have the right
to exercise any rights of subrogation and/or contribution against each other Guarantor hereunder.
Subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, this Guaranty applies to, inures to the benefit of and
binds all parties hereto, their heirs, devisees, legatees, executors, administrators, representatives,
successors and assigns. This Guaranty may be assigned by Landlord voluntarily or by operation of
law. Guarantor may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer all or any part of its rights and
obligations under this Guaranty without the express prior written consent of Landlord, which
consent may be withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, it being understood that
Landlord is relying upon the financial strength and integrity of Guarantor in this transaction. The
term "Tenant," as used herein, shall mean the party herein so named and its respective successors
and assigns, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, a debtor in
possession under Chapter 11 of the federal Bankruptcy Code and any other Person at any time
assuming or succeeding to all or any portion of the Tenant's obligations under the Lease.
10. This Guaranty shall constitute the entire agreement between Guarantor and the Landlord with
respect to the subject matter hereof. No provision of this Guaranty or right of Landlord hereunder
may be waived nor may Guarantor be released from any obligation hereunder except by a writing
duly executed by an authorized officer, director or trustee of Landlord. The waiver or failure to
enforce any provision of this Guaranty shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach of such
provision or any other provisions hereof. No course of dealing between Landlord and Tenant shall
alter or affect the enforceability of this Guaranty or Guarantor's obligations hereunder.
11. Any notice, request, demand, instruction or other communication to be given to any party
hereunder shall be in writing and sent in accordance with the notice provisions of the Lease,
except that the address for notices to the parties under this Guaranty shall be as set forth below
their signature hereto; provided, however, that any party may designate another addressee (and/or
change its address) for notices hereunder by a notice given pursuant to this Section 11.
12. If either party hereto participates in an action against the other party arising out of or in connection
with this Guaranty, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the other party
reasonable attorneys' fees, collection costs and other costs incurred in and in preparation for the
action. In addition to the foregoing, Guarantor shall be responsible for any attorneys' fees,
collection costs and other costs of Landlord arising out of any dispute under the Lease, including,
without limitation, all interest, default interest, post -petition bankruptcy interest and other post -
petition obligations, late charges, court costs and attorneys' fees, which may be suffered or
incurred by Landlord in enforcing or compromising any rights under this Guaranty or in enforcing
or compromising the performance of Tenant's obligations under the Lease. Guarantor hereby
waives any right to trial by jury and further waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of
any defense based on any claim that any arbitration decision binding upon Landlord and Tenant is
not binding upon Guarantor.
13. Guarantor represents and warrants to Landlord that: (a) this Guaranty has been duly executed and
delivered to Landlord by Guarantor; (b) this Guaranty is a valid and legally binding obligation of
Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such validity, binding nature or
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
moratorium or other laws or court decisions relating to or affecting the rights of creditors
generally; (c) Guarantor has received a true, correct and complete copy of and is fully familiar
with the Lease and represents and warrants that to the best of Guarantor's knowledge, all
necessary action has been taken by Tenant to authorize Tenant's execution and delivery of the
Lease; and that the value of the consideration received, and to be received, by Guarantor in
connection with the transactions contemplated under the Lease is worth at least as much as the
liabilities and obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty, and that such liabilities and
obligations are expected to benefit Guarantor either directly or indirectly. Deleted: K
