(b)           the Nation shall not permit SGC or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to make any payment under or pursuant to any Existing Affiliate Contract unless such contract, taken as a whole, is on terms which are no less favorable to SGC or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than would be available in a comparable contract on an arm’s-length basis with an unaffiliated third party (“Arm’s Length Contract”); and for purposes of this Section 4.23(b), each operating lease and each Operating Lease Payment increase which is made consistent with Section 4.19 hereof, together with the applicable operating lease, shall be deemed an Arm’s Length Contract;

(c)           the Nation shall not permit SGC or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to increase the amounts paid under clauses (i) or (iv) of the definition of the term “Regulatory and Shared Services Expenses” from the amounts designated in the approved fiscal year budget in effect at the time of the occurrence of the Lock-Down Event of Default; and

(d)           if an Existing Affiliate Contract or series of related Existing Affiliate Contracts involves aggregate payments or other consideration having a Fair Market Value in excess of $3.0 million, (i) the Nation shall cause SGC or such Restricted Subsidiary to deliver to the Trustee, within 10 Business Days of the occurrence of the Lock-Down Event of Default, copies of any determinations obtained by SGC or such Restricted Subsidiary as to the fairness of such Existing Affiliate Contract from a financial point of view, and (ii) at any time after 20 Business Days of the occurrence of the Lock-Down Event of Default, if the Holders of twenty-five percent (25%) of the principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds so request, the Nation shall cause SGC to retain an Independent Financial Advisor to review such Existing Affiliate Contract and to determine whether such Existing Affiliate Contract is fair, from a financial point of view, to SGC or the Restricted Subsidiary involved in such Existing Affiliate Contract, as the case may be.

Section 4.24      Tax-Free Nature of Series 2007-A Bonds.  For the benefit of the Holders of the Series 2007-A Bonds, not permit any thing or act to be done in such manner as would result in loss of the tax exemption of interest on the Series 2007-A Bonds under Section 103 of

13

the Code, nor permit the Authority to use any of the proceeds received from the sale of the Series 2007-A Bonds or any other money, directly or indirectly, in any manner which would result in the Series 2007-A Bonds being classified as arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code or private activity bonds within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code.

Section 4.25      Existence of Authority.  Do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the legal existence of the Authority and not amend the Charter of the Authority in any manner that would materially adversely affect the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds or the ability of the Authority to comply with its obligations under the Indenture, the Bonds and this Agreement.

(i)            interpret or enforce the terms of this Agreement;

(ii)           compel arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association;

(iii)          enforce an arbitrator’s decision with respect to arbitration under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association;

(iv)          order amounts payable under this Agreement to be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and, subject to the express limitations in Sections 6.03 and 6.04 hereof, enforce the award of damages owing as a consequence of a breach of this Agreement, whether such order or award is the product of litigation or arbitration;

(v)           subject to the limitations in this Agreement, including those set forth in Sections 6.03 and 6.04 hereof, order the exercise of any other remedy available generally in the State of New York for judgment creditors;

(c)           Procedural Requirements.  The limited waiver by each Nation Party of its sovereign immunity as to unconsented suit set forth in this Article VII is effective if, and only if, each and every one of the following conditions is met:

(i)            the claim is made by the Trustee or the Holders of Bonds or their respective representatives;

(ii)           the claim alleges a breach by the Nation Party under this Agreement;

(iii)          the claim seeks (A) payment of a specified sum, some specific action, or discontinuance of some action by the applicable Nation Party to bring the applicable Nation Party into full compliance with the duties and obligations expressly assumed by the applicable Nation Party under this Agreement; or (B) as to the Nation or the Authority only, money damages for noncompliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement;

17

the sole discretion of the Trustee (or the Holders of the Bonds or their respective representatives) for non-monetary matters as long as the Nation Party is making good faith efforts to cure such breach or non-performance); and

(v)           with respect to any claim authorized herein, initial suit as authorized herein, shall be commenced within the later of three years after the claim accrues or is discovered upon the exercise of due diligence, or such claim shall be forever barred.

(d)           Recipient of Waiver.  The recipients of the benefit of this irrevocable waiver of sovereign immunity are limited to the Trustee and each Holder of the Bonds.

(e)           Enforcement.  Each Nation Party irrevocably waives its sovereign immunity from a judgment or order consistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, which is final because either the time for appeal thereof has expired or the judgment or order is issued by a court having final appellate jurisdiction over the matter.  Each Nation Party consents solely to the jurisdiction of, to be sued in and accepts and agrees to be bound by any order or judgment of any United States District Court for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, and any federal or state court having appellate jurisdiction thereover, consistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.  Each Nation Party irrevocably waives its sovereign immunity as to an action by the Trustee (or the Holders of the Bonds or their respective representatives) solely in any United States District Court for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, and any federal or state court having appellate jurisdiction thereover, seeking injunctive and/or declaratory relief against the respective Nation Party based upon any attempt to revoke its irrevocable waiver of its sovereign immunity under this Agreement, and as to enforcement in said United States District Court or New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York of any such final judgment against such Nation Party.  Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Nation Party expressly authorizes any governmental authorities who have the right and duty under applicable law to take any action authorized or ordered by any such court, to take such action to give effect to any judgment entered or order granted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f)            Waivers.  Each Nation Party hereby expressly and irrevocably waives:

(i)            its rights to assert or demand that any dispute, controversy, suit, action or proceeding arising under this Agreement be heard in any forum other than as set forth in Section 7.02(e) hereof whether or not such forum now exists or is hereafter created;

18

(ii)           its right to assert any requirement that any remedies available in any court or other tribunal, forum, council or adjudicative body of the Nation (a “Nation Forum”) must be exhausted prior to the commencement of any dispute, controversy, suit, action or proceeding in any court set forth in Section 7.02(e) hereof even if any such Nation Forum would have concurrent jurisdiction over any such dispute, controversy, suit, action or proceeding but for such waiver;

(iii)          its sovereign immunity as to the action of the Trustee (or the Holders of the Bonds or their respective representatives) in any United States District Court for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, and any federal or state court having appellate jurisdiction thereover seeking injunctive and/or declaratory relief against the Nation Party based upon an attempt by it to revoke its irrevocable waiver of its sovereign immunity or other waivers granted hereunder; and

(iv)          its sovereign immunity from a judgment or order (including any appellate judgment or other order) and post-judgment proceedings supplemental thereto consistent with the terms and provisions hereof, which is final because either the time for appeal thereof has expired or the judgment or an order is issued by the court having final jurisdiction over the matter.

(g)           No Revocation of Sovereign Immunity Waiver.  Each Nation Party agrees not to revoke or limit, in whole or in part, its limited waiver of sovereign immunity contained in this Article VII or in any way to attempt to revoke or limit, in whole or in part, such limited waiver of sovereign immunity.  In the event of any attempted revocation or limitation, the parties hereto expressly recognize and agree that there would remain no adequate remedy at law available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds (to the extent permitted under Section 7.08 of the Indenture), the Trustee and the Holders of the Bonds (to the extent permitted under Section 7.08 of the Indenture) would be irreparably injured upon any such revocation or limitation, and each Nation Party hereby consents to the entry of appropriate injunctive relief consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  In the event of any attempted limitation or revocation of the limited waiver of sovereign immunity granted herein, the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds (to the extent permitted under Section 7.08 of the Indenture) may immediately seek judicial injunctive relief as provided in this Article VII without first complying with any of the prerequisites contained herein to the limited waiver of sovereign immunity granted herein; provided that any action seeking injunctive relief hereunder shall be brought solely in one of the United States District Courts for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, and each Nation Party expressly consents to the jurisdiction of, and agrees to be bound by, any order or judgment of such District Courts or state court, and any federal or state court with appellate jurisdiction thereover.

Section 7.03      Dispute Resolution.

(a)           Arbitration.  If, and only if, a dispute arises between the parties over a matter for which any Nation Party has provided a limited waiver of sovereign immunity

19

under this Agreement (the “Dispute”), and neither the United States District Courts for New York nor the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, can or is willing to hear the Dispute, then any party hereto may request binding arbitration of such Dispute in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.  To initiate binding arbitration of such Dispute, a party shall notify the other parties hereto in writing.  The Dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, provided that judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered solely in the United States District Courts for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York.  One arbitrator shall preside and shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association.

(b)           Restraining Order/Preliminary Injunction.  Any party, before or during any arbitration, may apply to a court having jurisdiction as provided under Section 7.02(e) for a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction where such relief is necessary to protect its interests pending completion of the dispute resolution proceedings.

(c)           Confidentiality.  No party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence or results of any arbitration hereunder, which shall be considered confidential to the parties hereto, except:

(i)            with the express prior written consent of the other parties hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

(ii)           as required by applicable law or the rules of any relevant stock exchange or requirement of the Trustee, by order or decree of a court or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over such party, or in connection with such party’s enforcement of any rights it may have at law or in equity;

(iii)          on a “need to know” basis to persons within or outside such party’s organization, such as attorneys, accountants, bankers, financial advisors and other consultants; or

(iv)          after such information has become publicly available without breach of this Agreement.

(d)           Fees and Costs.  In the event of arbitration, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all of its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs and expenses, from the nonprevailing party.

(e)           Location of Arbitration.  The arbitration shall take place at a location in an agreed city in the State of New York or such other place as the parties may jointly agree.  The arbitrator shall render an award within 45 days from the conclusion of the arbitration.

(f)            Enforcement of Arbitration Decisions.  The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding and enforced with the same force and effect as a decree of a court having competent jurisdiction as provided under Section 7.02 (e) hereof.  For this

20

purpose, should the losing party in any arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 7.03 refuse to abide by the decision of the arbitrator, the prevailing party may apply solely to any United States District Court for New York or the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York to compel enforcement of the arbitrator’s award resulting from binding arbitration.  In the sole event that neither the United States District Courts of New York nor the New York State Supreme Court in and for New York County, New York, takes jurisdiction over such enforcement action, the prevailing party may apply to the courts of the Nation for the enforcement of such action.  Each party hereto consents to the jurisdiction of each such court for this purpose.  Each Nation Party hereby expressly and irrevocably waives its sovereign immunity with respect to the entry of judgment on, and enforcement of, such award by such courts.

(g)           Designation of Service Recipients.  In any action or proceeding as to which a Nation Party has waived its sovereign immunity as set forth in Section 7.02 hereof, each Nation Party consents and agrees that process against it shall be effective if served:

(i)            if to the Nation, on the President of the Nation; or by sending two copies of the process by registered or certified mail to the President of the Nation at the address set forth in Section 8.07 hereof.

(ii)           if to the Authority, on the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Authority; or by sending two copies of the process by registered or certified mail to the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Authority at the address set forth in Section 8.07 hereof.

(iii)          if to SGC, on the President or Interim President of SGC; or by sending two copies of the process by registered or certified mail to the President of SGC at the address set forth in Section 8.07 hereof.

Courtesy copies of any such process shall also be provided to the Nation’s Department of Justice and SGC’s Office of General Counsel at the addresses set forth in Section 8.07 hereof; provided, however, that the failure to provide such courtesy copies shall not affect the validity of any process served on the Nation, Authority or SGC.

(h)           Appointment Irrevocable.  Each Nation Party irrevocably appoints each of the persons in the foregoing clauses and their respective successors in said offices from time to time, as agent for service of process made in accordance herewith.
