ARENA REVENUE FUND AGREEMENT THIS ARENA REVENUE FUND AGREEMENT (this Agreement ) is entered into as of, 2015, by and between the CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH, a municipal corporation of the Commonwealth of Virginia ( City ), and UNITED STATES MANAGEMENT, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( USM ). RECITALS: A. City and USM have entered into a Development Agreement dated, 201_, and setting forth the terms and conditions by which City and USM will cause the development of the Arena Project. B. As contemplated by the Development Agreement, the City of Virginia Beach Development Authority and USM will enter into an Arena Lease for the Arena Land for the construction and operation of the Arena. C. To support USM s financial obligations relating to the Arena Project, City has agreed to create and manage a fund (the Arena Fund ) as authorized by 15.2-5921-5927 of the Code on the terms, conditions and limitations set forth below. D. The Transaction Agreements, including this Agreement, are a contract for the construction, development, operation, or maintenance of a facility as defined in 15.2-5921 of the Code. E. At least thirty (30) days prior to the execution of the Transaction Agreements, copies of such agreements and applicable reports were sent to the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia as required by 15.2-5923 of the Code. 1

F. The Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Virginia has been provided copies of the Transaction Agreements and afforded an opportunity to review those agreements as required by 15.2-5923(B) of the Code. G. USM and City desire to enter into this Agreement for the purpose of setting forth their respective rights and obligations regarding the Arena Fund. AGREEMENT: NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, City and USM hereby agree as follows: 1. Definitions. For the purpose of this Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise, the capitalized terms used in this Agreement, and not otherwise defined in this Agreement, shall have the corresponding meanings specified for such terms in the attached Appendix 1. Additionally, the rules of usage set forth in Appendix 1 shall apply to this Agreement. 2. Identification of Receipts for Arena Fund. The following revenues shall be credited by City to the Arena Fund: a. An amount equal to the sum of all payments received by City for (i) real estate taxes assessed pursuant to 35-26 through 35 of the City Code with respect to the Arena Land and Arena from and after the date of this Agreement; (ii) personal property taxes assessed from and after the date of this Agreement pursuant to 35-4 et seq. of the City Code and 58.1-3200 et seq. of the Code with respect to personal property located at the Arena and/or the Arena Land; (iii) business license taxes assessed from and after the date of this Agreement pursuant to 18-1, et seq. of the City Code with respect to Arena Operations; (iv) admissions taxes assessed 2

from and after the date of this Agreement pursuant to 35-181 through 35-205 of the City Code with respect to Arena Operations; and (v) meals taxes assessed from and after the date of this Agreement pursuant to 35-136 through 35-157 of the City Code with respect to sales from Arena Operations (collectively, the Direct Arena Tax Revenues ); b. An amount equal to the revenues generated by a one percent (1%) transient occupancy ( hotel ) tax, as defined in 35-158 of the City Code, on all transactions subject to such tax City-wide pursuant to 35-159 of the City Code (the Hotel Tax Revenues ). For clarification, as of the date of this Agreement, the hotel tax consists of two components, an amount equal to eight percent (8%) of the total amount paid for lodging plus a fixed dollar amount flat tax on each transaction. The parties acknowledge and agree that the percentage used to calculate the hotel tax and/or the flat tax rate may be adjusted in the future, that any such adjustment will not affect the amounts to be included as Hotel Tax Revenues under this Agreement and that the amount to be credited by City to the Arena Fund will remain in an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the amount of all transactions subject to the hotel tax City-wide. For example, if $200 were paid for lodging in a transaction subject to the hotel tax, $2.00 (which is the amount equal to 1% of the total amount paid for lodging) would be eligible to be credited by City to the Arena Fund; c. An amount equal to the sums received by the City from the Commonwealth as contemplated by 15.2-5921 and 15.2-5926 of the Code with respect to any sales and use tax payable in connection with construction materials, equipment, fixtures, furniture or any other personal property used in construction of the Arena Improvements (the Construction Sales Tax Revenues ); 3

d. An amount equal to the sums received by the City from the Commonwealth as contemplated by 15.2-5921 and 15.2-5926 of the Code with respect to any sales and use tax payable in connection with Arena Operations (the State Sales Tax Revenues ); and e. An amount to be contributed by the City from the local sales and use taxes pursuant to 58.1-605 of the Code and 35.81 of the City Code received by the City from the Commonwealth for sales and use taxes payable in connection with Arena Operations as identified by the Virginia Department of Taxation (TAX) (the Local Sales Tax Revenues ). Collectively, the Direct Arena Tax Revenues, the Hotel Tax Revenues, the Construction Sales Tax Revenues, the State Sales Tax Revenues, and the Local Sales Tax Revenues shall be the Arena Fund Revenues. 3. Establishment of Arena Fund. Commencing when Arena Fund Revenues will first be credited to the Arena Fund pursuant to Section 6 below, City shall establish a non-lapsing revolving Arena Fund as part of the City budget. The Arena Fund shall be maintained by City during the term of this Agreement (the Term ), which shall commence on the date the Arena Fund is required to be established in accordance with the foregoing and continue until the earlier of (i) July 1, 2043 (or such later date to which the statutory expiration of the authorizing legislation for the Arena Fund may be extended by the Virginia General Assembly), or (ii) [insert expiration of original amortization period of developer financing]. 4. Non-Appropriation. All obligations of City under this Agreement requiring the transfer or expenditure of money shall be subject to annual appropriation by the City Council of the City (the City Council ) in the ordinary course of the budgetary and appropriations process, as required by applicable law. 4

The City will cause requisite procedural steps to be taken by the City Manager with regard to each specified funding and ensure that the appropriation will be recommended annually to the City Council for inclusion in the budget of the City. 5. No General Obligation Pledge. Nothing in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements shall be deemed to constitute a pledge of the full faith and credit or the taxing power of the Commonwealth or the City to meet the contractual obligations set forth in the aforementioned documents. 6. City Credits to Arena Fund. a. Hotel Tax Revenues. The City shall credit to the Arena Fund the Hotel Tax Revenues on a monthly basis following receipt thereof commencing the first day of the City Fiscal Year (July 1) during the calendar year in which USM receives a certificate of occupancy for the Arena. For example, if USM received such certificate of occupancy on December 31, 2018, then the credit to the Arena Fund shall commence retroactively from July 1, 2018; however if the certificate of occupancy is received January 1, 2019, the credit to the Arena Fund shall commence July 1, 2019. b. Construction, State and Local Sales Tax Revenues. City will credit to the Arena Fund the Construction Sales Tax Revenues within thirty (30) days following City s receipt of such Construction Sales Tax Revenues from the Commonwealth. City will credit to the Arena Fund the State Sales Tax Revenues and the Local Sales Tax Revenues within thirty (30) days following City s receipt of the State Sales Tax Revenues from the Commonwealth. The Parties contemplate that crediting of Construction Sales Tax Revenues into the Arena Fund will commence after the commencement of payment of sales tax on materials related to construction of the Arena Improvements and that crediting of State Sales Tax Revenues and Local Sales Tax 5

Revenues into the Arena Fund will commence after the commencement of payment of sales tax on Arena Operations. c. Direct Arena Tax Revenues. City will credit to the Arena Fund the Direct Arena Tax Revenues following establishment of the amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.c, and the amount thereof so credited will be disbursed as provided under Section 7 below. Following the end of each quarter of each City Fiscal Year (July September; October December; January March; and April June), USM shall submit to City a summary (the Direct Tax Summary ) of Direct Arena Tax Revenues paid to City during the prior fiscal quarter. The Direct Tax Summary shall be prepared and submitted on the form attached to this Agreement as Schedule 1 and shall include all supporting documentation reasonably required by City, including: (i) copies of all invoices, (ii) tax reporting forms, and (iii) receipts or checks or wire transfer confirmations evidencing the amounts of the Direct Arena Tax Revenues due and the payment thereof. Promptly following City s confirmation of payment of the Direct Arena Tax Revenues reflected on the Direct Tax Summary (or the resolution between the City and Developer of any discrepancies), City shall credit the confirmed amount of Direct Arena Tax Revenues reflected in the Direct Tax Summary to the Arena Fund. If the City should dispute any portion of the amounts reflected on the Direct Tax Summary, such amounts may be withheld until resolution of same between City and Developer, and both Parties will work diligently to resolve any such dispute in a timely manner. d. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will amounts credited to the Arena Fund by City in any City Fiscal Year exceed the applicable Payment Cap for such City Fiscal Year provided for pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement. 6

e. Upon City s receipt of written request from USM, City will provide USM with access to all publically available books and records of the City relating to Arena Fund Revenues to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. Upon USM s receipt of written request from the City, USM will provide City with access to books and records of USM and any other individual or entity (each a Third Party Taxpayer ) paying any taxes that USM desires to be treated as Arena Fund Revenues and credited to the Arena Fund for purposes of inspection and confirmation of taxes paid. The City s review of the books and records will be limited to the applicable portion of such books and records relating to taxes that USM desires to be treated as Arena Fund Revenues if USM or the applicable Third Party Taxpayer (as applicable) certifies to the City that such books and records are the only books and records relating to sales at the Arena and payment of taxes USM desires be treated as Arena Fund Revenues and accurately reflect such sales and taxes. 7. Disbursements from the Arena Fund. From and after the date (the Draw Commencement Date ) that is the date a certificate of occupancy has been issued for the Arena, USM shall be entitled to submit to the City quarterly applications for payment from the Arena Fund based upon the draw schedule set forth below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than two draws may be submitted until after the Arena Grand Opening, unless the Arena Grand Opening is delayed due to City Delays or Force Majeure. Furthermore, if USM has satisfied all conditions to, and applied for the issuance of, a certificate of occupancy for the Arena, but issuance of such certificate of occupancy is denied due to a City Delay, the Draw Commencement Date will be the date that the certificate of occupancy for the Arena would have been issued but for such City Delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, USM shall be entitled to submit to the City monthly applications for payment and monthly disbursements from the Arena Fund for the first twelve (12) months following the Draw Commencement Date (which applications for payment shall be submitted by USM on or after the 20 th of each month for 7

Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund in the prior calendar month). Thereafter, the Parties will resume the regular quarterly disbursement process contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the Payment Cap described below, and provided no Adjudicated Default has occurred and is continuing under any of the Transaction Agreements, such payments from the Arena Fund shall begin following the Draw Commencement Date and continue until the expiration of Term of this Agreement. Draw Schedule For Each City Fiscal Year During the Term: a. For Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund by City in July, August, and September of each City Fiscal Year, applications for payment shall be submitted by USM on or after October 20 th. b. For Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund by City in October, November, and December of each City Fiscal Year, applications for payment shall be submitted by USM on or after January 20th. c. For Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund by City in January, February, and March of each City Fiscal Year, applications for payment shall be submitted by USM on or after April 20th. d. For Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund by City in April, May, and June of each City Fiscal Year, applications for payment shall be submitted by USM on or after July 20th. Payments of Arena Fund Revenues previously credited to the Arena Fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be made by check, wire transfer or other mutually agreed 8

upon form of payment no later than thirty (30) days following City s receipt of USM s application for payment. Subject to the Payment Cap, such payments to USM will equal the then-available balance of the Arena Fund Revenues credited to the Arena Fund. If the City fails to make any such payments when due, and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) days after the City s receipt of written notice from USM of such failure, all such past due amounts shall bear interest at that statutory rate of interest in the Commonwealth of Virginia from the date due until paid. 8. Obligation to Demonstrate Amounts Paid to City. The parties recognize that Virginia law prevents the state and local taxing authorities from disclosing to City the specifics of taxes paid by an identified taxpayer. Therefore, as part of each Direct Tax Summary, USM shall provide documentation to the City to support amounts claimed with respect to the Direct Arena Tax Revenues, Construction Sales Tax Revenues and State Sales Tax Revenues, which shall include copies of all tax forms filed with the Virginia Beach Commissioner of the Revenue or elsewhere with respect to Direct Arena Tax Revenues and all sales and use tax and other reports filed with the Commonwealth in connection with the State Sales Tax Revenues. Any credit of such funds to the Arena Fund requires, as a necessary condition, that such taxes have actually been paid to the City and/or Commonwealth, as applicable. Developer will be responsible for filing with the Commonwealth or City, as applicable, all reports, forms and other documents or information required with respect to the Arena Fund Revenues and as necessary to cause such Arena Fund Revenues to be available for credit to the Arena Fund. In connection with each disbursement of Arena Fund Revenues pursuant to Section 7 above, the City will provide USM with a summary of credits and disbursements with respect to the Arena Fund for the then-current City Fiscal Year. 9. Payment Cap. 9

The annual amount of Arena Fund Revenues credited by City to the Arena Fund and amounts payable by City to USM out of the Arena Fund each City Fiscal Year commencing with the City Fiscal Year in which the Draw Commencement Date occurs and continuing for each City Fiscal Year occurring during the balance of the Term shall not exceed the applicable annual Payment Cap for the applicable City Fiscal Year set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto and incorporated herein. [NOTE: Payment Cap will be calculated to equal to the sum of (i) USM s debt service payments on the Construction Loan (projected $170 million) for each City Fiscal Year, with the regular monthly debt service payments from the last year of the initial loan being used for the balance of the thirty year amortization period of the initial loan, plus (ii) an amount equal to a six percent (6%) annual return on the $40 million cash equity contribution projected made by USM (this amount does not include a return of the principal equity investment). The Payment Cap Schedule set forth in Schedule 2 represents the maximum Payment Cap under this Agreement. The Payment Cap will be adjusted prior to execution of this Agreement if the actual rate of interest on the Construction Loan is lower than 6%, if the principal amount of the Construction Loan is less than $170,000,000 and/or if the payment/amortization schedule of the actual Construction Loan will result in a lower Payment Cap for any City Fiscal Year. In addition, if Developer s equity investment is greater than $40,000,000, the Payment Cap will be adjusted to include an annual return on the additional equity above $40,000,000 at the lesser of 6% per annum or the actual interest rate under the initial Construction Loan. However, in no event will the recalculated Payment Cap exceed the Payment Cap set forth on Schedule 2 for any City Fiscal Year. In addition, Schedule 2 will be revised prior to execution to list the specific City Fiscal Year to which each Payment Cap amount is applicable.] 10. Miscellaneous Provisions. 10.1. Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices, demands or requests from one Party to another may be personally delivered or sent by mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, postage prepaid to the addresses below, and shall be deemed to have been given at the time of personal delivery or at the time of receipt.

Each express right and remedy of City and USM provided for in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements. The exercise of any one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement. 10.3. Assignment. City shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement. USM shall not have the right to assign or transfer its rights, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement to any person, other than a permitted, allowed and/or approved Transferee of USM s interest under the Arena Lease pursuant to Section 15 of the Arena Lease, without the prior written consent of the City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, USM shall have the right from time to time, without the City s consent, to grant a security interest in its interest in this Agreement in connection with USM s financing arrangements. The City agrees to execute such confirmation, certificates and other documents as USM s lenders may reasonably request in connection with any such financing. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by City and USM and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 10.4. Consents and Approvals. All consents and approvals which may be given under this Agreement shall, as a condition of their effectiveness, be in writing. Any approval to be binding on a Party must be signed by its Project Representative or by the City Manager on behalf of the City. The granting of any consent or approval by a Party to perform any act requiring consent or approval under the terms of this Agreement or the failure on the part of a Party to object to any such action taken without the required consent or approval shall not be deemed a waiver by 12

the Party whose consent was required or its right to require such consent or approval for any further similar act. 10.5. Entire Agreement; Amendments. The Transaction Agreements constitute the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersede all prior negotiations, representation, statements or agreement, whether written or oral, between the Parties hereto. No Transaction Agreement nor any provision thereof may be waived, modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument signed by the Party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set forth in such instrument. No waiver by any Party to a Transaction Agreement of any failure or refusal by the other Party to comply with its obligations thereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent failure or refusal to so comply. 10.6. Relevant Law; Venue Mediation. The Transaction Agreements shall be governed by Virginia law, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. All actions relating to any Transaction Agreement shall be instituted and litigated in the Virginia Beach Circuit Court or the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Norfolk Division. Each Party to a Transaction Agreement waives any objection to the venue of any action filed in any such court and waives any right under the doctrine of forum non conveniens or otherwise, to transfer any such action filed in any such court to any other court. In the event of a dispute under this Agreement, either party, by written notice, can demand mediation, and, in such event, the Parties agree to mediate any dispute in good faith and on an expedited basis. In the event neither Party demands mediation, or in the event the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute after good faith mediation, the Parties agree to pursue litigation expeditiously and without undue delay. 13

10.7. Waiver of Jury Trial. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the parties to the Transaction Agreements each waive their right to a trial by jury in the event of any litigation arising out of any Transaction Agreement. 10.8. Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision of any Transaction Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of such Transaction Agreement, or the application of such provisions to persons or circumstances other than those to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and provision of such Transaction Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 10.9. Counterparts. Each Transaction Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. 10.10. Transaction Agreements. The City and USM are parties to a certain Development Agreement dated, 201 (the Development Agreement ). Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, USM and The City of Virginia Beach Development Authority (the VBDA ) are entering into the Arena Lease, and USM and City are entering into the following agreements and instruments (which together with this Agreement, the Development Agreement and the Arena Lease, are collectively, the Transaction Agreements ) relating to the overall transaction of which this Agreement is a part, all of even date herewith: a. The Cost Participation Agreement. b. The Arena Convention Center Cooperation Agreement. c. The Declaration. d. Loan Cure Rights Agreement 14

City and USM acknowledge and agree that prior to the Draw Commencement Date (i) a default by USM under any other Transaction Agreement beyond any notice and cure period provided thereunder will likewise constitute a default by USM under this Agreement, and (ii) a default by City under any other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party or by the VBDA (or City as successor landlord) under the Arena Lease beyond any notice and cure period provided thereunder will constitute a default by City under this Agreement. City and USM further acknowledge and agree that from and after the Draw Commencement Date (i) an Adjudicated Default by USM under any other Transaction Agreement will likewise constitute a default by USM under this Agreement, and (ii) an Adjudicated Default by City or the VBDA (or City as successor landlord) under any other Transaction Agreement will constitute a default by City under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a default in the performance of USM s obligations under this Agreement that is not capable of being cured, is not a repetitive occurrence and is beyond the reasonable control of USM shall not be considered a default by USM under this Agreement. 10.11. New Arena-Specific Taxes. It is the intent of the City Council sitting as of the Council Approval Date (the Sitting Council ) that, as of the Council Approval Date (i) such Sitting Council does not intend to impose any new Arena-specific taxes on the Arena or Arena Operations that would not apply to other commercial facilities and/or operations within the City, and (ii) the question of whether any such Arena-specific additional taxes imposed in the future would be eligible for credit to the Arena Fund (to the extent permitted by then Applicable Laws) would be determined by the City Council sitting as of the date such taxes were enacted; however, as of the Council Approval Date, it would be the intent of the Sitting Council that any such taxes would be eligible for credit to the Arena Fund to the extent permitted by then Applicable Laws. 15
