CONCESSIONS: The City hereby hires Concessionaire, and Concessionaire agrees to operate the concessions at the Stadium for the sale of food and beverages during the Non-Spring Training season during the term of this Agreement. 3. FINANCIAL TERMS: Not later than the 20th day of each month following the end of a quarter (quarters shall be January-March, April-June, July-September, and October-December), Concessionaire, shall deliver to the City a true and correct statement of gross revenues derived by Concessionaire from the sale of food and beverage products (including all catered food and beverages) during that quarter for any and all Non-Spring Training uses of the stadium in which Concessionaire had applicable sales.

RESTRICTIONS ON SALES BY OTHERS: The City hereby grants and confers upon Concessionaire the exclusive right at the Stadium throughout the term of this Agreement to sell food and beverages at Non-Spring Training season uses. The City further grants Concessionaire a non-exclusive right to sell food and beverages in all parking lots as defined in paragraph 1(d). Concessionaire shall have no right to sell novelty items of any type at Non-Spring Training season Docusign Envelope ID: D94C7605-3967-46EA-8E2F-8A646480CBC9 3 uses. “Novelty items” refers to goods that a primarily intended for promotional, commemorative, decorative, or entertainment purposes and not for essential or functional use. These items may include, but are not limited to, branded or themed hats, pencils, mini bats, keychains, figurines, and other similar products typically sold or distributed as souvenirs, giveaways, or collectibles. The City shall use its best efforts so as not to permit or allow any salesperson or vendor to sell or distribute any food or beverage products in the Stadium at any time when concessions are being operated by Concessionaire or at reasonable times before and after such operation. From time to time, there may be events scheduled at the Stadium for which the anticipated crowds are too small to warrant Concessionaire's performance of concession services. For such events, Concessionaire may, on a case-by-case basis, waive its exclusive rights to allow others to perform such operations in place of Concessionaire for a particular event contemplated by this paragraph, which waiver will not be withheld by Concessionaire unreasonably. Concessionaire shall not be required to permit any third party to use any of Concessionaire's food service equipment at the stadium. Where Concessionaire so chooses to waive its exclusive rights for a particular event contemplated by this paragraph, Concessionaire shall not be entitled to request a buyout or any form of compensation from the third parties in exchange for Concessionaire's waiver. At the request of the City, the City and Concessionaire may meet annually to review the granting by Concessionaire of such waivers during the prior year. The Concessionaire shall use its best efforts to provide the City with as much prior notice as possible if they intend to waive its exclusive rights to allow others to perform concession activities for a particular event as contemplated by this paragraph (where anticipated crowds are too small to warrant Concessionaire’s performance of concession services for said event). For sake of clarity, this paragraph does not apply to subcontractors or other vendors of Concessionaire that Concessionaire may use in its performance of its concession services under this Agreement. 5. POWERS RESERVED TO CITY. The quality, quantity, price and brands of all items of food, liquor, beer and other items to be sold under this Agreement shall be determined by Concessionaire after consultation with the City and Concessionaire shall attempt to satisfy every reasonable request of the City. In general, prices charged by Concessionaire shall be comparable to prices charged at comparable facilities. 6. DEFAULT BY CONCESSIONAIRE. In the event that Concessionaire shall commit a material breach of any term, condition, or covenant contained herein and shall fail to cure same within twenty (20) calendar days after receipt of written notice from the City of a request to cure, the City may, at its option, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13 below. If such default by its nature cannot be cured within twenty (20) calendar days and does not involve the payment of money, Concessionaire shall immediately upon notice from the City commence curing such default and diligently and continuously pursue such remedy and cure such default within three (3) days. If Concessionaire fails to cure the default, the City may, at its option, terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13 below. The termination of this Agreement by the City because of the happening of said events of default shall be without prejudice to any claims which the City may have against Concessionaire growing out of Concessionaire’s default under this Agreement. No failure of the City to exercise any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof or as a waiver of any other right. 7. HOLD HARMLESS: Concessionaire shall indemnify, defend and save harmless the City, its employees, officers and directors, from any and all alleged claims, demands, suits, actions, proceedings, loss, cost and damages of every kind and description, including reasonable attorney’s fees or litigation expenses, which may be brought or made against or incurred by the City, its Docusign Envelope ID: D94C7605-3967-46EA-8E2F-8A646480CBC9 4 employees, officers and directors, on account of loss of or damage to any property or for injuries to or death of any person caused by or arising out of any act, omission, professional error, fault, mistake or negligence of Concessionaire, its employees, agents or representatives (collectively, the “City”), in connection with or incident to the performance of this Agreement. An allegation or determination that persons other than Concessionaire are responsible for the claim does not relieve Concessionaire from its separate and distinct obligation to defend the City, but only to the extent of Concessionaire’s own acts or the acts of its subcontractors. Concessionaire’s obligation under this paragraph does not extend to any liability ultimately determined by law or judicial order to have been caused by or arising out of any act, omission, professional error, fault, mistake, negligence or willful misconduct of the City, or its employees, officers and directors. If it is determined, by a court, via settlement, or through the City’s acknowledgement, that liability (a portion or solely) was caused by, or alleged to have been caused by, the negligence or willful misconduct of the City, Concessionaire may submit a claim to the City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs in proportion to the comparative liability of the City.
