Manager will reimburse the Kansas Lottery for any amount so paid together with interest thereon from the date of payment at twelve percent (12%) per annum. The Kansas Lottery may set off such payments from any money otherwise due Manager.

25. Advertising, Marketing, and Promotion. Manager must use its commercially reasonable efforts to advertise, market, and promote the Sports Wagering in order to maximize Sports Wagering Revenues. Manager must comply with all applicable regulatory requirements imposed for such materials and activities. All advertising, marketing and promotion materials employed by Manager must be approved by the Executive Director prior to their first use. Manager agrees that such materials may be disapproved if the Executive Director determines in their sole discretion that such materials would reasonably be expected to offend a substantial number of people, or violate any regulatory standards applicable to such materials. Manager must ensure that advertisements do not target children and minors, or other persons who are ineligible to place ▇▇▇▇▇▇, problem gamblers or other vulnerable persons; that such advertisements disclose the identity of the Lottery Gaming Facility manager in all such advertisements and provide the toll- free number for information and referral services for compulsive and problem gambling.

The Kansas Lottery acknowledges it has no other right regarding the Manager’s and/or its Interactive Sports Wagering Platforms’ trademarks, service marks, and trade names.

27. Personnel. Manager and/or Interactive Sports Wagering Platforms will provide, supervise, direct the work of, discharge, and determine the compensation and other benefits of all personnel necessary to provide for the play of Sports Wagering at the Lottery Gaming Facility and except as otherwise noted in this Agreement, based upon a staffing plan approved by the Executive Director. Such personnel will not be considered employees of the Kansas Lottery or any other agency or department of the State of Kansas. Manager may determine the compensation to be paid to all of its personnel working at the Lottery Gaming Facility. Manager must ensure its personnel, as well as all Interactive Sports Wagering Platform personnel, meet all applicable regulatory requirements imposed by the Commission or the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission. Manager will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, creed, color, sex, age, or national origin nor violate any applicable law, regulation or local ordinance governing employer obligations.

28. Personnel Training. Manager will provide and direct employee recruitment, instructional programs, incentives, and on-the-job training necessary to ensure a first class facility for Sports Wagering by the public. Such trainings and other programs for personnel are subject to the Executive Director's approval, but may be conducted on or off site, on the job, or by instructors at or from educational training facilities.

29. Key Employees. Manager agrees the personnel, or positions, as well as any independent contractors designated in the Exhibit D to the Lottery Gaming Facility Management Contract, which shall be updated to the Commencement Date of this Agreement to include Sports Wagering Key Employees, are considered Key Employees, whose employment and retention are subject to the Executive Director’s approval within their sole discretion; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph will restrict the right of either the Kansas Lottery or the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission to take action regarding the license held by any of Manager’s employees in accordance with applicable statutes or rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to law. The Executive Director may amend Key Employees list at any time for any reason. Any notice of disapproval of a Key Employee or the amendment of the Key Employee list shall be in writing. Any Key Employee disapproved or deleted from the Key Employee list shall have a right to file a written request for reconsideration to the Executive Director, within thirty (30) days.

30. Books and Records; Financial Statements. Manager must maintain an accurate accounting system in connection with its management of the Sports Wagering. The books and records will be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles maintained in accordance with current industry standards for similar gaming businesses. The books and records shall be maintained at all times either at the Lottery Gaming Facility and at such other locations as may be specified by regulation. The Executive Director, or their designees, shall have the right and privilege of examining these books and records at any time. In addition, the Executive Director may at any time obtain and pay for an audit performed by an independent certified public accountant. If this audit reveals a discrepancy greater than $10,000 in Sports Wagering Revenues or a discrepancy greater than $100,000 on any other line item previously reported to the Executive Director from the books and records provided by Manager, the audit’s cost will be reimbursed by Manager as a set off from the compensation to be paid Manager pursuant to Paragraph 19 above. On or before the 20^th day following the close of each month, Manager must furnish the Executive Director with a reasonably detailed operating statement for the Sports Wagering for that period, including year-to-date results.

Manager must permit access to such books and records as is legally required by law, regulation, or this Agreement, including giving access to the Post Auditor for the Kansas Legislature, the Executive Director or their designee, authorized representatives for the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission, or any authorized representative of the United States government.

32. Budget and Business Plans for Each Fiscal Year. No later than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of each Fiscal Year, Manager must submit to the Executive Director a budget (the “Budget”) and a proposed Business Plan for Sports Wagering for such Fiscal Year, containing reasonably detailed revenue and expense projections and providing projections for all expenditures that Manager anticipates to be made, as well as all capital expenditures and expenditures for replacements. The Budget will accompany and be compatible with Manager’s proposed Business Plan for the upcoming Fiscal Year. The Budget is intended as, and will represent only, an estimate of the projected revenues and expenditures for the Fiscal Year based

upon assumptions believed by Manager to be reasonable at the time of preparation. The Budget and proposed Business Plan for each upcoming Fiscal Year will be subject to the Executive Director’s approval. Thereafter, Manager will use reasonable efforts to achieve the budgetary goals reflected in the Budget, but the parties both recognize the Budget cannot be relied upon as an assurance of actual results for such Fiscal Year. Manager must promptly notify the Executive Director of any need to depart in any material way from the Budget if, in Manager’s judgment, adherence to the Budget is impractical or if such departure is necessary or desirable for Sports Wagering’s efficient or profitable operation. Any such deviations from the Budget are subject to the Executive Director’s approval. Until such time as a Budget or Business Plan is approved for any fiscal year, Manager may manage in substantial accordance with the previous fiscal year’s Budget or Business Plan as approved by the Executive Director. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Executive Director objects to any portion of a proposed Budget, Executive Director shall advise Manager of such objection (and deliver to Manager a reasonably detailed description of such objections, the “Disapproved Items”) and Manager and the Executive Director shall in good faith discuss and resolve the objection. If the Executive Director objects, the Manager shall promptly revise the Budget to address the Disapproved Items and shall resubmit the same to Executive Director until Executive Director approves such Disapproved Items. In addition, if any Disapproved Item is required to be paid pursuant to applicable federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, order or statute or by any governmental authority with jurisdiction with respect thereto, the cost and expense of which were approved pursuant to previous Budgets, then Manager shall be permitted to pay the same. Until such time Executive Director approves such Disapproved items, the most recently approved Budget shall apply other than with respect to the Disapproved Items with respect to which the previously approved Budget shall apply.

33. Bank Accounts. Manager and its Interactive Sports Wagering Platform shall pay all Sports Wagering Revenue to the State, as directed by the Executive Director and required by this Agreement.

34. Events of Default. Each of the following will constitute an event of default by Manager:

Manager’s failure to pay any amount owed the Kansas Lottery in the manner provided for in this Agreement if the Kansas Lottery decides in its sole discretion to give notice of such default to Manager;

The filing of a voluntary assignment in bankruptcy or insolvency or a petition for reorganization under any bankruptcy law by Manager;

The consent to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy by Manager;

Entry of an order, judgment or decree by any court of competent jurisdiction, on application of a creditor, adjudicating Manager a bankrupt or insolvent or approving a petition seeking reorganization or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of all or a substantial part of Manager’s assets, if such order, judgment or decree continues unstayed and in effect for a period of 120 consecutive days; or

Manager’s failure to perform, keep or fulfill any other covenant, undertakings, obligations or conditions set out in this Agreement for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of said failure from the Executive Director (unless a shorter

period of time is specified in this Agreement); provided, however, that if the default is not susceptible of being cured within this thirty (30) day period and the defaulting party with due diligence takes and continues action to cure, then no event of default will be deemed to have occurred until the failure to take or to continue to take such action.

Withdrawal of any approval granted, loss or suspension of any license issued to Manager by the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission or any other regulatory entity with jurisdiction over Manager’s activities unless such withdrawal, suspension or loss is being contested by Manager in the appropriate forum with jurisdiction over the agency action at issue; or

Manager fails to exercise appropriate management, oversight, or control over any of its suppliers, vendors, subcontractors, assignees, or agents, especially as any such control relates to adherence to the Kansas Lottery Act, Kansas Expanded Lottery Act, applicable federal law, applicable rules and regulations, this Agreement, or any directives, instructions, or orders of the Kansas Lottery or the Executive Director.

35. Remedies on Default. If an event of default occurs as provided above, Executive Director may, without prejudice to any other legal or equitable remedy which they may have, give Manager notice of the Kansas Lottery’s intention to terminate this Agreement after the expiration forty-five (45) days from the date of such notice and upon the expiration of such period, unless another cure period is expressly provided for, this Agreement will be deemed terminated; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph, or in this Agreement, will be construed to restrict the Executive Director’s authority to: (a) immediately cease operation of any or all Sports Wagering for any reason; or (b) physically secure or take possession of any or all Lottery Equipment or data. Manager further acknowledges that its failure to make any weekly electronic payment of Sports Wagering Revenues as required by Paragraph 16 will authorize the Executive Director in their sole discretion to immediately terminate this Agreement.

36. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Kansas Lottery in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy, but each and every such remedy will be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default will impair any such right or power or will be construed to be a waiver, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient in favor of the Kansas Lottery.

37. Surrender Upon Termination. At the Executive Director’s request, Manager agrees that at the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Manager will deliver to the Executive Director, or their designee, all books, records, accounting documents, computerized files, contracts, leases, licenses, permits or other governmental authorizations, files, supplies, keys, locks safe combinations, insurance policies not maintained as part of Manager’s blanket policies, warranty contracts and cards, operating instructions and other information, warranties and guaranties concerning all equipment relating to Sports Wagering, as well as any maintenance or preventive maintenance programs, schedules and logs, records, inventories of personal property and equipment purchased on behalf of the Kansas Lottery or the State of Kansas, and all other

information regarding Sports Wagering, and all accounts and sums held or maintained by Manager on behalf of the Kansas Lottery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall be entitled to retain copies of all documents, records, books, files and other materials delivered to the Executive Director. Manager will have a reasonable period of time, not to exceed forty-five (45) days from the termination date, to complete all accounting functions with respect to the Sports Wagering. Manager must cooperate with the Executive Director in changing any bank accounts maintained for the Kansas Lottery’s benefit. Manager must take all actions reasonably necessary to facilitate the orderly transition or termination of the management of the Sports Wagering and must perform all reporting and accounting functions required by this Agreement for the period from the date of the last report or accounting to the termination date. If, at the termination of this Agreement, there is any Sports Wagering equipment that was purchased by Manager on behalf of the Kansas Lottery with ownership transferred to the Kansas Lottery, then the Executive Director will transfer ownership of such Sports Wagering equipment to Manager or Manager’s designee, if such transfer is lawful; but if such transfer is not lawful, then the Executive Director will refund to Manager the residual value received by the Executive Director in a sale of such Sports Wagering equipment to an eligible buyer.

38. Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. If Manager defaults under any provision of this Agreement and the Kansas Lottery should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of amounts payable or to enforce performance or observance of Manager’s obligations under this Agreement, Manager must pay, on demand, the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other expenses incurred by the Kansas Lottery.

39. Manager’s Indemnification Responsibilities. In addition to any other indemnification obligations provided in this Agreement or by law, Manager agrees as follows:

To hold and save harmless the State of Kansas, Commission, Commission members, the Executive Director, the Kansas Lottery, Kansas Lottery staff, Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission, Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission members, the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission’s executive director, and Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission staff (each an “Indemnified Party”) from liability for injury to persons or damages to property by reason of Manager’s activities or the activities of any of Manager’s suppliers, subcontractors or agents in carrying out the provisions of, or any way connected with, this Agreement.

To hold and save harmless any Indemnified Party upon demand for any money or other property which they are required to pay out for any reasons whatsoever, whether the payment is for a budgeted expense or any other charges or debts incurred or assumed by Manager, or any other party, or judgments, settlement or expenses in defense of any claim, civil action, proceeding, charge, or prosecution made, instituted or maintained against Manager or an Indemnified Party jointly or severally, affecting or because of the condition or use of Sports Wagering, or acts or failure to act by Manager or Manager’s agents, or arising out of or based upon any law, regulation, requirement, contract or award related to the hours of employment, working conditions, wages and/or compensation of employees or former employees at the Lottery Gaming Facility or any location of Sports Wagering equipment or activity, or any other cause in connection with the Manager or Manager’s activities related to this Agreement. This entire Paragraph 39 does

not include any action against the Kansas Lottery or its staff regarding the constitutionality of the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act or misconduct by an Indemnified Party that is found to be negligent or criminal.

To hold and save harmless any Indemnified Party from liability for any claim arising as a result of the selection of Manager under the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act to manage Sports Wagering.

To hold and save harmless any Indemnified Party from liability for any violation or breach of this Agreement by Manager, its employees, or agents.

Manager’s duties under this paragraph will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. To the extent Manager is responsible to defend any Indemnified Party as required under this Agreement, Manager agrees to defend (with counsel approved by the Executive Director), at Manager’s sole expense, any Indemnified Party, and to pay on demand all costs and expenses related to such defense regarding any indemnification right provided for in this paragraph. The Kansas Lottery shall cooperate in any such defense and will promptly provide notice to Manager of any potential liability arising under this Paragraph 39. Manager’s obligations under this paragraph may be satisfied in whole, or in part, by insurance purchased at Manager’s expense, provided that Manager will be responsible for any indemnified liabilities in excess of insurance limits. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, Manager shall in no event be liable under any indemnification obligation provided in this Agreement to the extent such liability arises out of or is related to the negligent, willful, malicious or criminal conduct of any Indemnified Party or resulting from actions taken by Manager at the specific direction of the Executive Director, or any other Indemnified Party that is specifically authorized under the Kansas Expanded lottery Act or regulation promulgated thereunder to direct the actions of Manager. The provisions of this paragraph in no way eliminate or cancel the insurance protection and rights granted to the Kansas Lottery, the Commission, the State of Kansas and their agents and employees as set forth in Paragraphs 22 and 23 of this Agreement.

40. Compliance with Orders, Ordinances, Etc. Throughout this Agreement’s term, Manager will promptly comply in all material respects with all statutes, codes, laws, acts, ordinances, orders, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses, authorizations, directions and requirements of all federal, state, county, municipal and other governments, departments, commissions, boards, companies or associations insuring the premises, courts, authorities, officials and officers, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary or extraordinary, which now or at any time hereafter may be applicable to the Manager, Sports Wagering or any part

thereof, or to any use, manner of use or condition of the Lottery Gaming Facility or any part thereof. Notwithstanding these requirements, Manager may in good faith contest the validity of the applicability of any requirement of the nature referred to in this paragraph. In such event, Manager may fail to comply with the requirement or requirements so contested during the period of such contest and any appeal therefrom, so long as such non-compliance is permitted by law. Manager will give notice to the Executive Director of any such non-compliance.

41. Discharge of Liens and Encumbrances. Manager shall not permit or create or suffer to be permitted or created any lien upon the Sports Wagering Revenues by reason of any labor, services or materials rendered or supplied or claimed to be rendered or supplied with respect to the Lottery Gaming Facility or Sports Wagering or any part thereof, except any liens expressly approved by the Executive Director. Notwithstanding these requirements, Manager may in good faith contest any such lien. In such event, Manager, upon prior written notice to the Executive Director, may permit the items so contested to remain undischarged and unsatisfied during the period of such contest and any appeal, unless the Executive Director requires Manager to promptly secure payment of all such unpaid items by filing the requisite bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the Executive Director, thereby causing a lien to be removed. Manager agrees this Agreement is not to be considered property, and will not permit this Agreement to be attached, garnished, or executed upon by any creditor for any reason but such attachment, garnishment or execution shall not be grounds for default if Manager promptly contests and obtains vacation of such writs or secures a bond that causes the lien thereof to be removed. This Agreement is not transferable in bankruptcy without the Executive Director’s approval. If Manager is insolvent or bankrupt, the Manager’s trustee, with approval of the Executive Director, may continue to manage the Lottery operation of Sports Wagering pursuant to this Agreement under order of the appropriate court for no longer than one year after the bankruptcy or insolvency of Manager.

42. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned in whole or in part without the Executive Director’s express written consent, which may be granted or withheld in their sole and absolute discretion. The Executive Director acknowledges that a joint venture or other business combination or transfer of an equity interest involving Manager and suitable third party or parties is permissible, provided such party or parties receive all approvals required by applicable statute, regulation or this Agreement.

43. Approvals. Any approval, assent, or consent given by the Kansas Lottery or by the Executive Director under this Agreement may be withdrawn at any time, upon reasonable notice to the Manager. The reasonableness of any such notice shall be determined by the public interest involved, including the reputation of the Kansas Lottery, the integrity of Sports Wagering in the State of Kansas, and any other factors as may be determined by the Executive Director.
