     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON UNITS
ADDITIONAL TRANSACTION PAYMENT;
TERMINATION OF EXISTING AGREEMENTS

     1.1 Purchase and Sale. On the Closing Date (as defined below), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels shall sell to the Company, and the Company shall purchase from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, all 43,333 common units currently owned or held by or on behalf of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels or any of its Affiliates (as defined below) (collectively, the “Common Units”).

     1.2 Consideration and Payment.

          (a) In consideration for the Common Units, the Company shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels an aggregate amount of Two Hundred Twenty-Two Million Dollars ($222,000,000) (the “Repurchase Price”) in cash.

          (b) The Company shall diligently pursue and use its reasonable best efforts to secure financing for the Repurchase Price upon commercially reasonable terms from third party, commercial lenders as soon as possible but in any event within 90 days of the date hereof; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to incur or seek to obtain any public or quasi-public indebtedness to finance the Repurchase Price, including, without limitation, the issuance of any securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Rule 144A promulgated thereunder, or otherwise entitled or subject to the right to registration under the Securities Act.

          (c) In addition to the Repurchase Price payable under Section 1.2(a), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels shall also be eligible to receive an Additional Transaction Payment (as defined below) pursuant to the terms of Section 1.3.

     1.3 Additional Transaction Payment.

          (a) In the event that during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the date hereof (the “Relevant Period”), the Company or BPI consummates or executes definitive documentation or a letter of intent or similar instrument in respect of a Change of Control Transaction (as defined below) or an IPO (as defined below) (each, an “Additional Transaction”) then the Company shall notify Gaylord

Hotels in writing of such Additional Transaction and, upon the consummation of such Additional Transaction, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels shall be entitled to receive the positive amount, if any, as is equal to the product of (i) the Supplemental Per Common Unit Payment (as defined below), multiplied by (ii) 43,333 (such amount, the “Additional Transaction Payment”). The Additional Transaction Payment shall be paid to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels concurrently with the closing of the Additional Transaction, in immediately available funds and/or in, the case of a Change of Control Transaction, in such other form of consideration as is payable to the other holders of equity securities of the Company in connection with the Change of Control Transaction. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels shall be entitled to receive an Additional Transaction Payment, if any, in respect of any and all Additional Transactions during the Relevant Period. No Additional Transaction Payment shall be required upon the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any of the assets or equity securities of Tracker Marine, Tracker Retail or Big Cedar alone or together and any such sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition whether alone or together shall not be taken into account for the purposes of determining whether a Change of Control Transaction has occurred with respect to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels ever owe the Company any amount as a result of application of this Section 1.3. In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC or any of their respective Affiliates consummates, executes definitive documentation or a letter of intent or similar instrument with respect to the financing (debt or equity) of a Competing Business during the Relevant Period, Gaylord shall no longer be entitled to Additional Transaction Payments; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall preclude or prohibit ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC or their respective Affiliates from maintaining a passive investment in publicly held entities provided that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC or their respective Affiliates do not have more than a two percent (2%) beneficial ownership in any such entity.

          (b) Subject to the limitations set forth in the next sentence of this Section 1.3(b), each of the Guarantors, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees payment, when due, to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels of any Additional Transaction Payment, if any, arising under Section 1.3(a) of this Agreement. The guarantee obligation set forth in this Section 1.3(b) is one of collection, and not of payment or performance. Each of the Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, notice of acceptance of its guarantee. Any successor to all or a material portion of the Company (on a consolidated basis) shall expressly assume all obligations and liabilities of a Guarantor set forth in this Section 1.3(b). Other than as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, in the event that a Guarantor is no longer a subsidiary of the Company, such entity shall be released from its guarantee obligations hereunder without any further action on the part of any Person.

          (c) For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to the Company in this Section 1.3 shall include any successor to the Company as a result of a Corporate Conversion or otherwise.

          (d) For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

          “Additional Transaction Price Per Common Unit” shall mean the price per common unit or other equity security for or into which the common units of the Company were previously exchanged or converted in the Additional Transaction, as applicable, as adjusted for

any equity split, equity combination, in-kind equity distribution, dividend, reverse equity split, or recapitalization, reorganization or similar event which occurs between the date hereof and the closing of the Additional Transaction so as to be measured in price per common unit on the date hereof, including (i) any additional amounts paid to any Person at such date under any non-compete agreements, employment agreements, severance agreements, service agreements, consulting agreements or other similar ancillary agreements executed specifically in connection with such transaction, but only to the extent that such additional amounts are on economic terms that are demonstrably above market for the type of transaction in question or are otherwise intended to be purchase price and (ii) in connection with a Change of Control Transaction, any dividend or distribution made by the Company to the Company’s equity holders between the Closing (as defined below) and the closing of a Change of Control Transaction (other than tax distributions made to the members of the Company in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement, including, without limitation, any distributions made pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof). Subject to the provisions of this Section 1.3, with respect to (a) any Change of Control Transaction with respect to the Company that involves the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of less than all of the Company’s assets (including the sale or disposition of all or less than all of the assets or equity securities of BPI) or (b) any Change of Control Transaction or IPO with respect to BPI, then the Additional Transaction Price Per Common Unit shall be determined by reference to the value in such Additional Transaction of the assets or equity securities actually being sold or disposed of as a percentage of the fair market value of all the assets of the Company (on a consolidated basis).

          The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event that a series of related transactions (each, a “CoC Component Transaction”) are cumulated to give rise to a Change of Control Transaction (i.e., a series of related transactions), then the Additional Transaction Price Per Common Unit shall be the average weighted price per common unit received in connection with such Change of Control Transaction, which shall be calculated as the quotient of (1) the aggregate amount received from all CoC Component Transactions (with respect to each CoC Component Transaction, such amount calculated by multiplying the actual price per common unit (or other equity security into which the common units of the Company were previously exchanged for or converted into) received in such CoC Component Transaction by the number of common units (or other equity security into which the common units of the Company were previously exchanged for or converted into) issued, sold or transferred at such price), divided by (2) the aggregate number of common units (or other equity security into which the common units of the Company were previously exchanged for or converted into) issued, sold or transferred in all such CoC Component Transactions (in each case adjusted for any equity split, equity combination, in-kind equity distribution, dividend, reverse equity split, or recapitalization, reorganization or similar event which occurs between the date hereof and the closing of the Additional Transaction so as to be measured in common units on the date hereof), which, taken together, constitute a Change of Control Transaction.

          “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any Person (i) any director, manager, partner, executive officer or stockholder or member holding 5% or more of the equity (on a fully-diluted basis) of such Person, (ii) any spouse, parent, sibling or descendant of such Person (or a spouse, parent, sibling or descendant of any director, manager, partner or officer of such Person), (iii) any other person that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person.

means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

          “Business” means the business, as conducted by the Company on the Closing Date, of (a) the distribution, direct marketing and/or retailing (including, sales from store locations, catalogs and internet orders) of fishing, hunting, camping, and related outdoor merchandise (including, without limitation, footwear and apparel) and equipment, (b) the manufacture, distribution, marketing and/or sale of watercraft, and (c) the sale of all terrain vehicles.

          “Competing Business” means any Person which is engaged, as its principal activity, in any business or activity that is in direct competition with the Business.

          “Change of Control Transaction” shall mean with respect to the Company or BPI (i) the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (including, without limitation, by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of 50% or more of the value of the properties or assets of the Company (but excluding the properties and assets of Tracker Marine, Tracker Retail and Big Cedar) or BPI, in one or a series of related transactions, to an individual or a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, unincorporated organization, association or other form of business or legal entity (each, a “Person”) or group of Persons (other than an internal restructuring involving the Company and/or BPI and one or more of their respective Affiliates), (ii) any merger, consolidation or other business combination, or refinancing or recapitalization, in one or a series of related transactions, that results in the holders of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company or BPI immediately prior to such transaction owning or controlling less than 50% of the equity securities of the continuing or surviving entity immediately following such transaction, or (iii) any Person or Persons acting together or which would constitute a “group” for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), together or with any Affiliates thereof (other than any of the holders of the equity securities of the Company or BPI immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction) beneficially owning (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) or controlling, directly or indirectly, in one or a series of related transactions, at least 50% of the total equity securities of the Company or BPI, as applicable.

          “Corporate Conversion” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the LLC Agreement.

          “IPO” shall mean the closing of any offering (including any underwriters overallotment option), whether by the Company or selling equity holders, of the equity securities of the Company or BPI for sale to the public pursuant to an offering registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act in an amount equal to 35% of the pre-offering equity securities of the Company or BPI, as the case may be; provided that for the purposes of this Agreement, the issuance by the Company or BPI of registration rights (or similar rights that if exercised would cause the Company or BPI to register its equity securities pursuant to an offering registered with the Commission under the Securities Act) to a financing source shall not give rise to an Additional Transaction Payment.

          “Repurchase Price Per Common Unit” shall mean $5,123.12.

          “Supplemental Per Common Unit Payment” shall mean the positive amount, if any, as is equal to (i) the Additional Transaction Price Per Common Unit less (ii) the Repurchase Price Per Common Unit.

     1.4 Full and Complete Payment. The parties acknowledge and agree that following the Closing (a) the Repurchase Price constitutes full and complete payment for the Common Units and all rights and attributes related thereto (including, without limitation, any amounts due in respect of any accrued but unpaid dividends or distributions), and (b) except for the Repurchase Price and, if applicable, the Additional Transaction Payment, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels shall not be entitled to any other rights, payments, dividends and/or distributions, whether in cash or property, from the Company or any other Person in respect of the Common Units or other interests in or with respect to the Company, whether existing under (i) the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, as now or hereafter amended, (ii) the Company’s Certificate of Formation, or (iii) any of the Existing Agreements, except, in all cases, as provided in Section 1.5 hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not preclude ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels from bringing an action for (A) fraud, (B) breach of this Agreement, or (C) breach of the General Release of Claims described in Sections 2.2(d)(iv) or 2.2(d)(v) below; provided that the remedy for any such action shall not include rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     1.5 Termination of Existing Agreements. Effective upon the Closing, (a) each of the Existing Agreements shall automatically terminate with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, as applicable, and shall cease to be of any further force or effect as between ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, as applicable, on the one hand, and the other party(ies) to such agreement, on the other hand, (b) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have no rights or obligations under any of the Existing Agreements with respect to the Company or any of the other parties thereto, and (c) neither the Company nor any of the other parties to any of the Existing Agreements shall have any further rights or obligations under any of the Existing Agreements with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, provided, however, that the provisions of Section 8.11 of the LLC Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to indemnification of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ as a manager of the Company and that the provisions of Section 4.1 of the LLC Agreement shall continue in full force and effect only to the extent necessary to fully effectuate Section 1.7 hereof.

For the avoidance of doubt and as provided under Section 13.1(b) of the LLC Agreement and Section 11.3 of the Registration Rights Agreement, this Section 1.5 shall be acknowledged by each of the other parties to each of such agreements to effect the termination of such agreements with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels as provided herein. To the extent necessary under the Existing Agreements, each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels, GEC, the Company, American Sportsman, JLM Partners, KB Partners and the other parties thereto hereby (or concurrently herewith) consent to (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and (ii) as of the Closing, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

GEC shall provide the Company with copies of any

correspondence or other communications received from the Commission as soon as possible following its receipt thereof, and shall endeavor to include the Company (and, as applicable, its accountants and legal advisors) in any conversations, hearings, telephone calls or other similar communications with the Commission. To the extent GEC information is provided to the Commission on a confidential basis, the Company will keep such information confidential to the same extent as Gaylord’s obligations in Section 5.1 hereof with respect to Confidential Information.

In the event that the Closing occurs during 2007, the Company shall have no obligations to provide financial information covering any period subsequent to the Company’s 2007 fiscal year.

     5.4 Restrictive Covenants. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and each other ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bound Party, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, agree to comply with the provisions of Sections 5.4(a) and 5.4(b) below from and after the Closing Date for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date:

          (b) Non-Interference with Supply Relationships. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and each other ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bound Party, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, agree not to, directly or indirectly, take any action intended or reasonably likely to cause any supplier of the other party or any of its Majority Owned Subsidiaries to refrain from doing business with the other party or any of its Majority Owned Subsidiaries, increase its supply prices applicable to the other party or any of its Majority Owned Subsidiaries or reduce the amount of trade with the other party or any of its Majority Owned Subsidiaries; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.4(b) shall be deemed to prohibit ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, any other ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bound Party, or the Company from operating their business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice.

     5.5 Remedies. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges and agrees that should any ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bound Party violate any of its covenants contained in Sections 5.1 or 5.4, respectively, it will be difficult to determine the resulting damages to the Company and, in addition to any other remedies it may have, the Company shall be entitled to temporary injunctive relief without being required to post a bond and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage. The Company may elect to seek one or more of these remedies at its sole discretion on a case by case basis. Failure to seek any or all remedies in one case does not restrict the Company from seeking any remedies in another situation. Such action by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of any of its rights. The Company acknowledges and agrees that should the Company violate its covenants contained in Sections 5.3 and 5.4 it will be difficult to determine the resulting damages to GEC and, in addition to any other remedies it may have, the Company shall be entitled to temporary injunctive relief without being required to post a bond and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage. GEC may elect to seek one or more of these remedies at its sole discretion on a case by case basis. Failure to seek any or all remedies in one case does not restrict GEC from seeking any remedies in another situation. Such action by GEC shall not constitute a waiver of any of its rights.

It is the parties’ intent that each of the covenants contained herein (the “Covenants”) be read and interpreted with every reasonable inference given to its enforceability. However, it is also the parties’ intent that if any term, provision or condition of the Covenants is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Finally, it is also the parties’ intent that if it is determined that any of the Covenants are unenforceable because of overbreadth, then the Covenants shall be modified so as to make it reasonable and enforceable under the prevailing circumstances.

     5.7 Non-Disparagement. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bound Parties, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, shall not, and will cause their directors, managers, officers, employees, and agents not to, orally or in writing (including, without limitation, in electronic or digital form), intentionally disparage, belittle, ridicule, defame, denigrate or in any way make a negative or disparaging statement with regard to the other party, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees or agents, unless required to comply with applicable Law or in a court, arbitration or other proceeding.

     5.8 Reasonable Best Efforts. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Hotels each agree to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions in Article II to be satisfied.
