(i)           the amount of any returns or refunds with respect to sales from the Business actually paid by UCDP to Licensee’s customers, provided that the original sales price of such return or refund was included in the reported income, proceeds and moneys received by UCDP; and
(ii)           any Permitted Discounts on Merchandise to the same extent the same were included in the total funds received by UCDP.

Step 2.                      Determine the Gross Revenues by deducting the following from the Gross Receipts: sales or excise tax imposed by law on the sale of goods and services which are payable to the taxing authority and which are actually stated separately and collected by the UCDP, which sales tax UCDP shall be solely responsible for remitting to the proper taxing authority within the State of Florida.

Step 3.                      Calculate the Concession Fee to be retained by UCDP in accordance with the rates contained in the first paragraph of this Section 4(a).

Step 4.                      Determine Licensee’s Share by deducting the following from the Gross Revenues determined under Step 2 above:
(i)  
the Concession Fee as calculated in Step 3;
(ii) all allowable deductions from the Licensee’s Share which would otherwise be payable to Licensee, including, but not limited

 
 

 

to the “rent tax,” credit card fees, Resort Hotel room charge fees, and, if applicable, any Orientation Fees, Wardrobe Charge, Royalty Fees, Deferral Repayments shortages due UCDP, Monthly Adjustments, and, to the same extent the same had previously been included in prior Gross Revenues, returned checks, charge backs from credit card processing centers, and charge backs from Resort Hotel room charges;
(iii)           the balance of the Gross Revenues, after deducting all of the items set forth in Step 4 (i) and 4(H) above, will be paid to Licensee as Licensee’s Share.

If the Concession Fee retained by UCDP for its own account in any Operating Year is greater than the Concession Fee actually due for such Operating Year. Licensee will be entitled to a credit against Licensee’s next payment(s) of the Concession Fee(s) coming due until Licensee has received full credit for any overage retained by UCDP for such Operating Year. If the Concession Fee retained by UCDP for any Operating Year is less than the Concession Fee actually due UCDP for such. Operating Year, then, at UCDP’s sole option, UCDP may deduct such shortage from future Licensee’s Shares or invoice Licensee for same, in which event Licensee shall pay such difference to UCDP within five (5) days of such invoice.

(b)           Deferred Concession Fee: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, provided Licensee is open and operating the Business and is not otherwise in default hereunder, Licensee will be entitled to defer a portion of the Concession Fees coming due during the first Operating Year (the “Deferred Concession Fee”). Provided Licensee complies with the requirements set forth herein, the Deferred Concession Fee will be equal to the total sum of the loan payments to be made by Licensee during the first Operating Year of the Initial Term to Licensee’s lender in repayment of the loan undertaken by Licensee to purchase Licensee’s equipment used in the operation of the Business. Licensee shall furnish to UCDP, prior to the commencement date of this Agreement and prior to Licensee’s obligation to pay the charges and fees due hereunder, a copy of such loan documents as well as the repayment schedule for said loan. In no event will the Deferred Concession Fee permitted hereunder exceed a “Maximum Deferral” equal to the lesser of (i) the total of the payments becoming due under the foregoing loan for and during the first Operating Year of the Initial Term or (ii) three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000.00). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Licensee fails to furnish copies of the loan documentation together with the loan repayment schedule as required hereunder or any other documentation relating, to the loan as may be reasonably required by UCDP, Licensee shall not be entitled to any portion of the Deferred Concession Fee until such documents are submitted and approved

 
 

 

by UCDP. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, should Licensee fail to submit such documentation prior to the commencement date as determined in Section 2(a) above, then the weekly deductions credited to Licensee as part of the Deferred Concession Fee will not begin until such documents are submitted to and approved by UCDP. For example, if Licensee fails to submit such required documentation until the end of the sixth full week of the first Operating Year of the Initial Term, then the deductions permitted hereunder as a credit towards the Deferred Concession Fee shall only occur for the remaining forty-six (46) full weeks of the first Operating Year.

The Deferred Concession Fee will be credited to the Licensee on a weekly basis by deducting from the Concession Fee otherwise due UCDP for each full week during the first Operating Year of the Initial Term that sum equal to ten percent (10%) of such weekly Gross Revenues for each full week during said first Operating Year until the earlier of (i) the date such credit deductions equal the Maximum Deferral or (ii) the expiration of the first Operating Year of the Initial Term. If, at the end of the first Operating Year the Maximum Deferral has not been attained, then any unused portion Maximum Deferral will no longer be available to defer any future Concession Fees coming due after the expiration of the first Operating Year.

As example of the above, if Gross Revenues for the first Operating Year totaled four Million Dollars ($4,000,000.00), then the Maximum Deferral would be equal to the lesser of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) or the total of Licensee’s loan repayments described above. If Licensee fails to submit the loan documentation required above until the end of the tenth (10th) full week of the first Operating Year, then the deduction of ten percent (10%) of Gross Revenues from the Concession Fee shall not occur until the eleventh (11th) full week and the amount that would have otherwise have been deducted from the Concession Fee during the first ten (10) full weeks will be deemed to be waived by Licensee.

If at anytime during the first Operating Year or immediately thereafter it is determined that there has been an error in calculating the Deferred Concession Fee previously during the said Operating Year, then an applicable adjustment will be made to the next Concession Fee coming due hereunder.

Beginning with the first week of the second Operating Year, and for each week thereafter for the second through the fourth Operating Year, Licensee shall repay UCDP the Deferred Concession Fee as the same finally determined plus interest thereon at an annual rate of twelve percent (12%) from the date of each deferred payment, (the “Deferral Repayment”). The weekly Deferral Repayment sum shall be calculated by applying the foregoing twelve percent (12%) interest

 
 

 

to the total Deferred Concession Fee on a payment schedule which would result in two hundred eight (208) equal consecutive weekly payments and would include the foregoing interest on the unpaid balance from the date of deferral until paid. UCDP will be entitled to deduct such weekly Deferral Repayment from the Licensee’s Share prior to paying same to Licensee under Section 4(a) above. If this Agreement should terminate for any reason, excepting only the early termination by UCDP pursuant to Section 2(d) above, prior to the repayment of the Deferred Concession Fee, then the balance due and owing on the date of such early termination shall become due, in full, without deduction or setoff. If this Agreement is terminated by UCDP pursuant to Section 4(a) above and not due to any other reason or default on the part of the Licensee, then any remaining unpaid Deferred Concession Fee shall be waived by UCDP. Licensee shall have the right, at anytime, to prepay all or a portion of the Deferred Concession Fee and an applicable adjustment shall be made to the Deferral Repayment Schedule. Further, Licensee may elect, at its sole option, to instruct UCDP not to defer any portion of the Concession Fee during the first Operating Year. It is understood that the Deferred Concession Fee has been agreed to by UCDP solely for the purpose of assisting Licensee in paying for its start up costs during the first Operating Year and such deferral of Concession Fees is made at the Licensee’s request and solely for Licensee’s benefit.

(c)           Sales Tax: UCDP will be solely liable for the collection of all applicable state sales tax due on the sales Merchandise from the Business (regardless of whether Licensee or UCDP makes such payment to the taxing authority). Any shortage in the sales tax collected by UCDP will be deducted from the Gross Revenues. UCDP will comply with all laws, regulations, and orders relating to, and shall promptly pay to the appropriate authorities when due, for Licensee’s account, all applicable sales, excise or other similar taxes imposed by any governmental body or agency upon the Gross Receipts (excluding, however, any taxes based on the net income of Licensee other than the “rent tax” based on such income). At Licensee’s request, UCDP shall produce such records as may be required to evidence UCDP direct payments to the proper taxing authorities. Any fines, penalties, or interest imposed on late payments of any sales tax shall be borne by UCDP, provided Licensee has not withheld information necessary for UCDP to meet its obligation. Any fines, penalties or interest imposed on late payment of any sales tax due to Licensee’s failure to timely provide UCDP with accurate information shall be paid by Licensee. Any fees, taxes, or other lawful charges paid by Licensee upon failure of UCDP to make such sales tax payments shall become immediately due and payable from UCDP to Licensee, provided UCDP withheld the payment of such fees, taxes other lawful charges for Gross Receipts but failed to pay the same to the .proper authority and provided Licensee has not withheld information or submitted false information with respect to such sales tax. If Licensee failed to furnish UCDP with any

 
 

 

required or accurate information relating to such taxes, then Licensee shall not be entitled to recover same from UCDP.

(d)           Resort Hotel Charges; Licensee authorizes UCDP, on Licensee’s behalf, to honor all requests by guests which are registered in a hotel located within the Resort (a “Resort Hotel” and such guest(s) being referred to as “Guest” or “Guests”) to charge items or services to their Resort Hotel room accounts when purchased by such Guests at or from the Business. Licensee further authorizes UCDP to treat such Resort Hotel room charges as per the terms of this Section 4(d). Licensee shall familiarize its employees with this Section in order that Licensee’s employees respond correctly to any Guests queries regarding the acceptance of such Resort Hotel room charge privileges. All Guests will be identified by the Resort Hotel room charge authorization card issued by the applicable Resort Hotel. A memoranda (duplicate credit card receipt) of any charge made by a Guest will retained by UCDP. Such memorandum will contain the Guest’s name, authorization code and an adequate description of the Merchandise covered by the transaction, and will be properly dated, signed by the Guest, and transmitted promptly to the applicable Resort Hotel by UCDP through a compatible TCP/IP modem device. On request, UCDP will produce a copy of such memorandum to the applicable Resort Hotel to verify the charge and the Guest’s signed approval thereof.

The collections of such Resort Hotel room charges will be credited by the applicable Resort Hotel for the account of Licensee and will be paid to UCDP on Licensee’s behalf at a weekly or such longer intervals as may be agreed upon, in writing, by Licensee and the applicable hotel. Initially, such payments to Vendor will occur on each Friday of each week. The specific day of payment may be modified from time to time so long as such time period does not extend more than one week from the prior week’s payment.

Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the applicable hotel may deduct and retain from the amounts collected by hotel for the account Resort Hotel Licensee, a handling charge equal to three percent (3%) of the amounts so collected. Licensee further acknowledges and agrees that the Resort Hotel does not guarantee collection from any Guest or will be accountable to Licensee only for money actually received from such Guest’s or from such Guest’s credit card charge account, provided that the Resort Hotel acted with due diligence when registering such Guest and the Resort Hotel followed its credit card processing center’s requirements in handling such Guest’s credit charges.

If the Resort Hotel pays UCDP on Licensee’s account any money billed to any Guest’s room account prior to the actual collection of such bills from the Guest, and if any such charges will subsequently be found to be uncollectible for

 
 

 

any reason other than the Resort Hotel’s failure to exercise due diligence in processing such Guest’s credit card charges, then the Resort Hotel will have the right, at its election, either to require repayment by UCDP on Licensee’s account or to deduct such uncollectible charges from any subsequent payment to be made by the Resort Hotel to UCDP.

UCDP will not make any charges to any Guest’s room prior to the actual delivery of the Merchandise to such Guest.

It is UCDP’s responsibility to validate the Guests’ identity and signature by comparing and verifying the signature shown on the charge authorization card against a valid photo ID (i.e., driver’s license, passport, military identification). If there is a dispute made by a Guest as to the amount of any charge made by the Guest to the Guest’s account, UCDP’s copy of the Guest’s signature on the charge documentation will be satisfactory to the Resort Hotel provided such signature has been duly and properly obtained by Licensee.

For the purpose of calculating Concession Fee due under this Agreement, any charges made by a Guest to a Resort Hotel as provided above will be treated and reported in the same manner as a charge made to a credit card.

(e)           Recording of Sales: Licensee acknowledges that the Business will be operated on a cash basis, with any credit card, Resort Hotel charge, Universal Scrip, traveler’s check or personal check transaction being deemed to be the same as cash. Each payment on a credit card, Resort Hotel room charge, Universal Scrip, personal check or traveler’s check will be treated as a sale for the full price in cash during the week in which such safe is initially made, irrespective of the time when UCDP actually receives payment (whether full or partial) from the applicable credit card agency or bank or Resort Hotel, and no deduction will be allowed for uncollected or uncollectible credit card, Resort Hotel room charge, personal check or traveler’s check sales. UCDP will record, at the time of purchase or other transaction, each and every sale and transaction from the operation of the Business at the time of the transaction, whether cash, Universal Scrip, or credit, in a cash register or registers furnished by UCDP at UCDP’s sole cost and expense. The cash register will be equipped with credit card reading and approval devices and shall have a sealed continuous cash register tape with a cumulative totals that numbers, records, and duplicates each transaction entered into the register, or such other type of cash register as UCDP may deem proper. The continuous tape will be sealed or locked in such a manner that it is not accessible to the person operating the cash register in the usual course of the days business. Each day, UCDP will retain the daily cash register detail tape for each cash register and a copy of the daily sales reports showing Licensee’s sales processed through such register, which will reflect,

 
 

 

among other things, the Gross Receipts rung up on each register. The foregoing will be submitted daily during the Term to the Finance Department (i.e. Revenue Accounting) of UCDP or such other department as selected o by UCDP. In addition, UCDP shall furnish UCDP’s Finance Department with copies of all over-rings and voids which have been generated by the Business. If Licensee and UCDP are sharing space at any Location, the daily operating and cash handling procedures may be changed, amended or altered, in a manner mutually agreeable to the parties should either party determine that the daily operating and cash handling procedures are networking in the best interest of the parties.

(f)           Books and Records: UCDP will keep accurate books of account and records for the cash handling portion of the Business in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

(g)           Reporting of Gross Receipts: Within twenty-four (24) hours following the closing of the Business on each day of the Term, UCDP will, on request of Licensee, advise Licensee, orally, of the Gross Receipts for that day by using a Daily Sales Reporting form that is developed and used by UCDP. A copy of the applicable portion of the final register reading for each register used by the UCDP in the Business will be attached to such Daily Sales Reporting form.

(h)           Deleted:

(i)           Deleted,

(j)           Acceptance of Universal Scrip: Universal Scrip will be accepted by UCDP on Licensee’s account when offered in payment for merchandise or services from the Business. UCDP will redeem Universal Scrip on behalf of Licensee’s account for its full face value. UCDP represents that, to its best knowledge, there have been no incidents involving any such counterfeit scrip; however, UCDP will not will not be responsible for nor shall it redeem any counterfeit scrip unless UCDP was not diligent in checking the validity of the scrip or was otherwise negligence in its policies for accepting such scrip. The acceptance of any other types of discount media, coupons, scrip or printed matters, which may or may not involve discounts, should .not be confused with Universal Scrip. Licensee is not obligated to accept such other types of discount media, coupons, scrip or printed matters, regardless of whether the same is in the form of scrip or coupons, unless Licensee specifically agrees to same. If Licensee agrees to accept such other types of discount media, coupons, scrip or printed matters, the redeeming of such other types of discount media, coupons, scrip or printed matters will be as provided-in such agreement and may or may not be for the full face value, depending on such agreement Universal Scrip shall be treated the same as cash by UCDP and Licensee in their respective accounting procedures.

 
 

 

All Universal Scrip shall be included in Gross Sales at its full face value when calculating the Concession Fee due hereunder.


5.           Minimum Annual/Weekly Fees.

(a) Minimum Weekly Fees: The parties are entering into this Agreement with the understanding and agreement that Licensee will generate sufficient Gross Revenues from the Business for the first Operating Year of the Initial Term to enable Licensee to pay a Minimum Annual Fee during the first Operating Year equal to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) and, further, Licensee will generate sufficient Gross Revenues from the Business for the second Operating Year of the Initial Term to enable Licensee to pay a Minimum Annual Fee during the second Operating Year equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00). Beginning with the third Operating Year of the Term and each Operating Year thereafter, the foregoing Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) Minimum Annual Fee will be adjusted as provided in Section 5(c) below. The Annual Minimum Fee will be paid in fifty-two (52) equal installments over the applicable Operating Year (the “Minimum Weekly Fee”). The Minimum Weekly Fee for any partial week during the Term shall be calculated as provided in Section 1(n) above. If the total Gross Revenues from the Business for any week during any Operating Year are not sufficient to generate a weekly Concession Fee which equals or exceeds the Minimum Weekly Fee for such week, then Licensee will pay, in addition to the Concession Fee for that week, a Weekly Adjustment for such week. Such Weekly Adjustment will be deducted from Gross Revenues and retained by UCDP prior to paying Licensee’s Share to Licensee for any week that the Concession Fee does not equal or exceed Minimum Weekly Fee.

Excepting only as specifically provided otherwise herein with regards to the abatement of the Minimum Weekly Fees for the first sixty (60) days of the Initial Operating Year, the Minimum Weekly Fees shall not be subject to any reduction, whether by virtue of any Deferred Concession Fee or for any other reductions or payments due hereunder; provided, however, in determining whether any Weekly Adjustment is due, the weekly Deferred Concession Fee shall not be deducted from the weekly Concession Fee prior to calculating the Weekly Adjustment, if any, {For example, if Gross Revenues are $8,000.00 for one week of the first Operating Year, the Concession Fee for that week would be $2,400.00 (30% of $8,000.00), the Minimum Weekly Fee for that week would be $600,00 ($3,000.00 - $2,400.00), the Deferred Concession Fee for that week would be $800.00 (10% of $8,000.00), then UCDP would deduct the foregoing Deferred Concession Fee of $800.00 from the foregoing total of the Concession

 
 

 

Fee and Minimum Weekly Fee of $3,000.00 and UCDP would retain $2,200.00 as its total weekly fees after deduction of the Deferred Concession Fee}

(b)           Initial Abatement of Minimum Weekly Fee: Provided Licensee is open and operating the Business as required under this Agreement and is not otherwise in default hereunder, the Minimum Weekly Fee will abate, in full, for the first sixty (60) days of the Initial Term.

(c)           Adjustment of Minimum Annual Fee. Commencing on the third Operating Year of the Initial Term and for each Operating Year thereafter during the Term, the Minimum Annual Fee of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) (the “Base Amount”) will be subject to annual increases, but not decreases, as provided herein. The measure for such adjusted increases will be the Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) - U.S. City Average (the “Index”). The term “Base Index” will mean the Index for the calendar month occurring thirty (30) days prior to the month in which the commencement date of the Initial Term occurs, as such date is determined under Section 2(a) above (the “Base Month”), and the term “Adjusted Index” shall mean the Index for the calendar month occurring thirty (30) days prior to the applicable anniversary of such commencement date of the Initial Term as determined under Section 2(a) above for which the adjustment is being calculated (the “Month of Adjustment”). The procedure for making the adjustment to the Minimum Annual Fee will be to increase the Base Amount by a percentage, such percentage to be equal to the percentage increase, if any, in the Adjusted Index over the Base Index. Such increase, as so determined, shall be added to the then existing Minimum Annual Fee and such adjusted Minimum Annual Fee shall be the Minimum Annual Fee used for the ensuing Operating Year. Should publication of the Index be discontinued, then UCDP shall adopt a substitute procedure which reasonably reflects and monitors consumer prices and/or shall substitute any official index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or by such successor or similar governmental agency as may then be in existence and shall be, most nearly equivalent thereto as reasonably determined by UCDP. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no reduction in any amount due shall occur based on an adjustment pursuant to this Section 5(c).

6.           Construction of Kiosks.

(a)           Kiosks Design: The Kiosks will be of such design, size, theme, and decor as is approved by UCDP. Upon written approval of Licensee’s plans, if any, by UCDP, such approved Licensee’s plans will, by reference thereto, be deemed to be part of and will be incorporated into this Agreement.

UCDP may provide certain decorative improvements and materials to be used in the vicinity of the Kiosks. UCDP will retain all rights, title interest and ownership of any such decorative improvements and materials and other materials provided for Licensee’s use by UCDP.

(b)           Licensee’s Plans: If UCDP requires Licensee to renovate, construct or install any improvements in any of the Locations prior to the opening of the Business in such Location, Licensee will, within fifteen (15) days of execution of this Agreement, at Licensee’s sole cost and expense, submit preliminary design and plans for the Kiosks to UCDP for review and approval by UCDP. Prior to submitting such preliminary plans, Licensee is encouraged to enter into discussions with UCDP’s design personnel to obtain guidance on the design criteria, goals, objectives and expectations of UCDP as to the type and nature of the Kiosks. UCDP will, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of Licensee’s preliminary plans, notify Licensee, in writing, as to any required changes or modifications to the Licensee’s proposed preliminary plans. Such submittal and review will continue until UCDP approves Licensee’s plans. If Licensee’s plans are not approved within sixty (60) days of the date of execution of this Agreement, UCDP may, at any time thereafter, terminate this Agreement and the parties will be relieved of all obligations hereunder unless, the Licensee secures the written approval of Licensee’s plans prior to the termination date set forth in the notice given by UCDP.

(c)           Construction/Fabrication: Any approval or consent by Landlord of any and all of Licensee’s plans will neither constitute an assumption of responsibility by Landlord for any aspect of Licensee’s plans, including, their accuracy or efficiency, nor will UCDP be obligated in any manner with respect to the construction of the Kiosks. Licensee will be solely responsible for the design, construction and fabrication of the Kiosks. Licensee will commence construction of the Kiosks promptly upon receipt of approval of Licensee’s plans and will complete the construction of the Kiosks within thirty (30) days of receipt of such approval; provided, however, in any event the Kiosks must be completed and placed in service within ninety (90) days of the date of this Agreement. If

 
 

 

Licensee fails to complete the Kiosks within the foregoing periods, then UCDP may deliver written notice of such failure to Licensee, and thereupon, Licensee will have ten (10) days within which to complete the Kiosks. If Licensee fails to complete the Kiosks within said ten (10) day period, UCDP will be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon written notice thereof to Licensee. Licensee will, at all times, retain ownership of the Kiosks.

(d)           Delays in Plans/Construction: The failure of Licensee to submit its plans or revised plans within or to start and complete the construction of the Kiosks within the time periods required hereunder will not affect nor delay the commencement of the Initial Term or the Licensee’s obligations to pay the Minimum Monthly Fee due hereunder. If UCDP fails to return Licensee’s plans within the time period provided for herein or if UCDP otherwise delays Licensee in beginning and completing its plans or construction of the Kiosks within the time periods required hereunder, then the Initial Term commencement date will be delayed one (1) day for each day that Licensee is so delayed by UCDP provided that Licensee gives notice to UCDP of such delays within three (3) days of the occurrence thereof. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that any delays in completing its plans and the construction of the Kiosks not attributed to delays caused by UCDP for which UCDP has received notice, that the Initial Term and Licensee’s obligations to, pay the Minimum Monthly Fee and other charges due hereunder will commence on the commencement date set forth under Section 2(a) above.

7.           Utilities & Taxes.

(a)           Electrical Power: UCDP will furnish, at its expense and at no cost to Licensee, all, electrical power required to operate the Business at the Locations provided such electric power is presently existing and in place at the applicable Location. The power will consist of a 3 phase, 30 amp, 110V duplex receptacle. If there is no existing utility line at any Location or if an existing utility line at a Location does not carry sufficient power for Licensee’s business, then Licensee shall be solely responsible for any costs or expenses in securing such electric power, including, but not limited to, the cost to run cable, install fuse boxes and outlets and any other cost associated with furnishing a Location with electric power.

(b)           Telephone Line: Licensee will, at its sole cost and expense, be permitted to obtain a telephone line from UCDP or, if UCDP does not furnish same, from the appropriate telephone service provided servicing the Attraction to connect with the internal fax modem of the Kiosks if it is deemed feasible or Licensee may install such other non-invasive method of direct communication with the Kiosks. UCDP will, if available, furnish a telephone/data outlet at the Locations

The cost for any telephone service furnished by UCDP will be paid by Licensee directly to UCDP if Licensee obtains such service from UCDP.

8.           Ownership/Maintenance.

(a)           Ownership: Licensee will be the sole owner and operator of the Business (excluding UCDP provided materials), including all equipment and inventory used in the Business. Licensee will be totally responsible for care, product quality, image management, insurance, upkeep and maintenance of the Kiosks and all associated equipment used in the Business. Licensee will bear all the risk of loss of, or damage to the Business and its equipment and inventory, except to the extent” such loss or damage is due to the sole negligence or willful misconduct of UCDP, its parent, subsidiary or affiliated companies, its and their respective officers, employees and agents. Licensee will repair and replace, as required, at Licensee’s sole expense, such equipment, materials and finishes to maintain the appearance and appeal of the Business at a level satisfactory to UCDP and to meet the demand of guests visiting the Attraction.

(b)           Maintenance/Upgrades: The Kiosks will be maintained by Licensee and will be inspected by Licensee as often as required to keep the Kiosks and the equipment used in the Business in first class condition. The term “first class condition” will mean that Licensee will maintain the Kiosks and operate the Business at a level that is equal or exceeds any similar type of business operated from a kiosk or cart in the Central Florida area. To maintain such level, Licensee will be required to update the equipment, Kiosks and appearance to a level that is considered to be “state of the art” for such business operation. Any replacements made by Licensee will be of like size, kind and quality to the items replaced as they existed when originally installed and will be subject to UCDP’s approval. If Licensee fails to perform its obligations under this Section, UCDP may, at its sole option, perform such obligations and UCDP shall have the right and Licensee authorizes UCDP to deduct from the Gross Revenues prior to paying Licensee’s Share to Licensee, the cost thereof plus interest thereon from the date of such expenditure at the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law.

UCDP will review and either approve such plans or advise Licensee of such additional work as may be required to comply with the refurbishment requirement hereunder. The foregoing refurbishment requirement is of material and significant importance to UCDP in entering into this Agreement with Licensee. If Licensee will fail to abide by the foregoing schedule or fail to make such refurbishment and repairs as approved or requested by UCDP, then UCDP, in addition to any other rights contained herein (including the right to make such refurbishment and/or repairs on Licensee’s behalf as provided above), will have the immediate right to terminate this Agreement upon ten (10) days notice to Licensee.
