 Exhibit 10.24 
 STATE ECONOMIC REDEVELOPMENT AND 
 GROWTH INCENTIVE GRANT AGREEMENT

 THIS STATE ECONOMIC REDEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH INCENTIVE GRANT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and
entered into, as of February 11, 2011, by and among REVEL ENTERTAINMENT GROUP, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, having an address of 1301 Atlantic Avenue, Suite 200, Atlantic City, New Jersey 08401; and (solely for purposes
of Section V(6) below) REVEL AC, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer,” and together with Revel Entertainment Group, LLC, the “Developer”); and the NEW JERSEY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
(“Authority”), and the TREASURER OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY (“State Treasurer”), and shall be effective as of the date that a fully executed original of this Agreement is returned to Developer (the
“Effective Date”). 
 WHEREAS, the New Jersey Economic Stimulus Act (“Act”) of 2009,
P.L. 2009, c. 90, amended by P.L. 2010, c.10, and codified at N.J.S.A. 52:27D-489 et seq., created and established the Economic Redevelopment and Growth (“ERG”) Grant program for the purpose of encouraging
redevelopment projects in qualifying economic redevelopment and growth grant incentive areas (“Grant Areas”) through the provision of the State of New Jersey (the “State”) and municipal incentive grants derived from
certain incremental tax revenues realized at the project site to reimburse developers for certain project financing gap costs; and 
 WHEREAS, the Act further provides that the Authority, in consultation with the State Treasurer, shall establish a program for the provision of State ERG Grant in Grant Areas that do not qualify as
such areas solely by virtue of being a transit village, provided that the State ERG grant for each project does not exceed 75% of the annual incremental revenues derived from the designated State taxes and the combined amount of reimbursements under
State ERG grants with the State and, if applicable, the municipality, does not exceed 20 percent of the total cost of the project; and 
 WHEREAS, capitalized, undefined terms in this Agreement shall bear the same meanings that are ascribed to them in Appendix A (“ERG Guidelines”) to this Agreement.

 WHEREAS, Developer has advised the Authority that it owns property bounded by New Jersey Avenue, Oriental Avenue,
Metropolitan Avenue, and the Boardwalk, and property located at Metropolitan and Massachusetts Avenues between Oriental and Pacific Avenues, and as identified on the tax map as Block 62, Lots 1 and 2, and Block 68, Lots 3-13 inclusive, Atlantic
City, New Jersey (collectively, the “Project Area”) and that it plans to redevelop that property in up to three (3) phases (each, a “Phase” and collectively, the “Phases”) in order to construct
an entertainment resort project, as follows: Phase I shall be comprised of an entertainment resort, related amenities and commercial space, and approximately 1090 hotel rooms (“Phase I”); Phase II shall be comprised of approximately
505 additional hotel rooms, for a total of approximately 1,595 hotel rooms (“Phase II”); and Phase III shall be comprised of approximately 303 hotel rooms, for a total of approximately 1,898 hotel rooms (“Phase
III”, and to the extent one or more Phases are completed by Developer, as provided below, the “Project”). 







 WHEREAS, the Project Area has been determined to be in a Qualifying Economic
Redevelopment and Growth Grant Incentive Area for purposes of a State ERG grant; and 
 WHEREAS, the Developer has filed
an application with the Authority to receive a State ERG Grant for its Project Financing Gap, and as part of that application has provided to the Authority the required information regarding the status of: (1) control of the entire
redevelopment Project Area; (2) required State and federal government permits that have been issued for the redevelopment project, or will be issued pending resolution of financing issues; (3) local planning and zoning board approvals, as
required, for the redevelopment Project; (4) estimates of the revenue increment base and projection of the eligible revenues for the Project, and the assumptions upon which those estimates are made; as well as other information required by the
Act and the ERG Guidelines; and 
 WHEREAS, the Authority, in consultation with the State Treasurer, has reviewed the
application and has determined that the proposed Project has estimated total project costs for each Phase, respectively, as follows (as to each Phase, the “Phase Eligible Project Costs”): for Phase I, $1,438,300,000 and eligible
project costs of $1,157,820,000; for Phase II, $78,000,000 and eligible project costs of $78,300,000; and for Phase III, $71,000,000 and eligible project costs of $71,000,000 (in the aggregate of the applicable Phase Eligible Project Costs and to
the extent that each Phase is completed, the “Eligible Project Costs”), that a Project Financing Gap exists and that, pursuant to a fiscal impact analysis, the overall public assistance provided to the Project will result in net
positive economic benefits to the State which is at least 110% of the recommended grant assistance; and 
 WHEREAS, the
Authority and State Treasurer have further found, based on the information provided in the application, that the State revenues to be realized from the Project will be in excess of the amount necessary to reimburse the Developer for the portion of
the Project Financing Gap allocable to the State Incentive Grant; and 
 WHEREAS, after review of the application
submitted by Developer, and consideration of the factors set forth in N.J.S.A. 52:27D-489(h) through -489(i) and the ERG Guidelines, the Authority at its Board meeting of February 1, 2011, and the State Treasurer in a letter dated
February 10, 2011, approved the Developer’s application for a State ERG Grant in the maximum amount equal to twenty (20%) percent of the actual Eligible Project Costs, not to exceed the maximum amounts as follows: as to Phase I, the
sum of $231,564,000; as to Phase II, the sum of $247,164,000; and as to Phase III, the sum of $261,364,000 (collectively, the “State ERG Grant”); 
 WHEREAS, the Developer and the Authority have entered into a commitment letter and the Developer has fulfilled the conditions precedent enumerated therein to executing this Agreement by: 1)
obtaining redevelopment site plan approval from the City of Atlantic City, New Jersey permitting the development of the Project; 2) obtaining required State and federal government permits for the redevelopment Project and copies of all local
planning and zoning board approvals that are required for the Project. In addition the Developer has obtained one or more commitments for commercial financing; and

 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which are hereby acknowledged, the Developer, the Authority, and the State Treasurer, intending to be legally bound hereto, agree as follows: 
  

	I.	INCENTIVE GRANT 

 1. The
parties acknowledge that the State, the Authority and Developer previously entered into a Brownfields Redevelopment Agreement, with an effective date of November 11, 2009, and that the repayments pursuant to this State ERG Grant Agreement will
not commence until the after the last reimbursement of eligible remediation costs are paid under and in accordance with the terms of such Brownfields Redevelopment Agreement; the last such reimbursement under the Brownfields Redevelopment Agreement
is anticipated to be paid from and after payment of the 2013 taxes by Developer. 
 2. After the payment of all reimbursements
under the Brownfields Redevelopment Agreement, the State does hereby agree to pay Developer (or at the request of Developer, to the Issuer) the State ERG Grant derived from revenues of the following: (i) the Corporation Business Tax Act,
N.J.S.A. 54:10A-1 et. seq., (ii) the Sales and Use Tax Act, N.J.S.A. 54:32B-1 et. seq., (iii) the hotel and motel occupancy fee assessed pursuant to N.J.S.A. 32D-1 et. seq.,
and (iv) the tax derived from net profits or a distributive share of partnership or of S corporation income under the New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act, N.J.S.A. 54A:1-1 et. seq., each of which the States collects and which
are directly realized from the businesses operating at the Project, less taxes and other impositions allocated to the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (“CRDA”) pursuant to the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority Urban
Revitalization Act, N.J.S.A. 5:12-173.9 et. seq., which are to be rebated to Developer under that certain Project Grant Agreement (the “Project Grant Agreement”) entered into with CRDA, dated December 18, 2007
(such collected revenues, minus the CRDA rebate, being referred to as the “Developer Eligible Revenues”), subject to the limitations set forth below. A copy of the Project Grant Agreement is attached hereto and made a part hereof as
Attachment 1. 
 3. The State ERG Grant shall not exceed the maximum amount of twenty (20%) percent of each of the
actual Phase Eligible Project Costs, respectively, not to exceed, as to each Phase, the respective Phase Eligible Project Costs, as follows: for Phase I, $1,157,820,000; for Phase II, $78,300,000; and for Phase III, $71,000,000, for a maximum
aggregate amount of $1,306,820,000; provided that the aggregate amount of such reimbursement shall not exceed a sum equal to seventy-five (75%) percent of the Developer Eligible Revenues, for a period of 20 years commencing upon the first
reimbursement to Developer under this Agreement; and provided further that the annual percentage amount of reimbursement shall not exceed a sum equal to seventy-five (75%) of the Developer Eligible Revenues in each year. In no event shall the
combined amount of the reimbursements under this State ERG Grant agreement with the State and, if applicable, the municipality, exceed 20 percent of the actual Eligible Project Costs, which are estimated to be approximately $261,364,000. 

4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if the Project premises do not produce, in a given tax year, the estimated
amount of Developer Eligible Revenues for such tax year, as provided in Appendix B, attached hereto and made a part hereof, the percentage of the State ERG Grant that the Developer shall receive for such tax year shall be limited to
seventy-five (75%) of the actual Developer Eligible Revenues received for that tax year. 

  
 3 








 5. Except to the extent remitted to the Pledged Account (as such term is defined below) and
in the manner provided in Sections V(5) and VII(1) below (to the extent that it relates to the Project Development Account), the proceeds of the State ERG Grant payments to Developer shall be deposited into a designated trust account (the
“Project Development Account”) under the control of an independent financial institution, acting as trustee, which trustee shall be governed by the terms of a trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) subsequently to be
negotiated by the parties, such proceeds to be released for the purpose of funding one or more of Developer’s State ERG Grant projects (each, an “ERG Funded Project” and collectively, the “ERG Funded Projects”)
that are described on Appendix C, attached hereto and made a part hereof. Without limitation of any other agreed terms, the Trust Agreement shall require the prior written consent of the Authority, upon its review of the documents and
information described in Section (V)(5) below, for the release of any monies to Developer from the Project Development Account for the purpose of funding the cost of the respective ERG Funded Projects that are undertaken by Developer in accordance
with this Agreement. Upon the release of monies for the final ERG Funded Project, the Project Development Account shall be closed and the trustee’s obligations under the Trust Agreement shall be terminated. 

6. It is anticipated that Phase I of the Project will be completed within three (3) years of the Effective Date; Phase II of the
Project will be completed within four (4) years of the Effective Date; and Phase III of the Project will be completed within five (5) years of the Effective Date. Failure to timely complete Phase I of the Project will require the Developer
to provide evidence to the Authority demonstrating to the Authority’s satisfaction, that Phase I of the Project will be expeditiously finished. Failure to present such evidence will constitute an event of default entitling the Authority to
terminate this Agreement, at the Authority’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding any other terms and provisions of this Agreement, Developer shall not be obligated to complete any Phase other than Phase I, it being acknowledged that the granting
and funding of the State ERG Grant as to Phase I, in the manner provided in this Agreement, is not dependent upon the commencement or completion of Phases II or III. Similarly, the granting and funding of the State ERG Grant as to Phase II is not
dependent upon the commencement or completion of Phase III. If Developer elects not to proceed with the construction of Phase II or Phase III, as may be applicable, such election shall have no effect upon the covenants and obligations of this
Agreement as they pertain to the completed Phase or Phases, which shall in such event be considered to be the Project for all purposes herein. 
  

	II.	PROJECT COST STATEMENT 


1. Prior to and as a condition of the State remitting the first reimbursement to the Developer (or at the request of Developer, to the
Issuer) under the State ERG Grant, the Developer shall submit the following for the Authority’s review and approval as to each completed Phase (the “Phase Project Cost Statement”): (1) satisfactory evidence of the actual
Phase Eligible Project Costs incurred by Developer for the Project Site, as certified by a certified public accountant; (2) evidence that Developer has received a permanent or temporary certificate of occupancy as to the applicable Phase;
(3) a certification from Developer indicating whether Developer is aware of any condition, event or act which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default or which would constitute an Event of Default with the giving of notice or passage of
time, or both, under this Agreement; and (4) such other information as the Authority may require, in a format to be prescribed by the Authority. 

  
 4 









	III.	PAYMENT TERMS 

 1. Upon
approval of the Developer’s Phase Project Cost Statement as applicable to the designated Phase, the Authority shall transmit the approval to the Director of the Division of Taxation (“Director”), New Jersey Department of the
Treasury. For purposes of this Agreement, the Phase Eligible Project Costs approved by the Authority shall serve as the actual Total Project Costs for purposes of calculating the total and annual State ERG Grant amounts applicable to such Phase.

 2. Upon receiving the verified actual Phase Eligible Project Costs from the Authority, the Director shall calculate the
maximum State ERG Grant to which the Developer may be entitled with respect to such Phase, subject to the amount of Developer Eligible Revenues collected and the limitations set forth in this Agreement. For that year and on an annual basis
thereafter, the Director shall calculate the appropriate annual State ERG Grant payment based on the revenues collected in the prior calendar year from the Developer Eligible Revenues subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement.

 3. Developer shall provide the Director no later than March 1st of each year, the required information pursuant to V(1) hereof.
Provided that such information has been received and is acceptable, the State ERG Grant shall be paid by the State in annual installments payable no later than June 1st of each year, for a term not to exceed twenty (20) years. When assessing whether new Developer Eligible Revenues
have in fact been generated for such reimbursement, the Director will review all available documentation concerning any such new taxes generated. 
 4. All payments made hereunder shall be subject to annual appropriation by the State Legislature and availability of funds. Failure to pay as a result of these conditions shall not constitute an event of
default hereunder. 
 5. A sum equal to 20% of any reimbursement to which Developer is entitled under this Agreement shall be
withheld by the Department of the Treasury for adjustment as necessary, and shall not be released to the Developer, until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the taxes specified in Article I(2) above. As and when
the applicable statute of limitations expires as to each such tax, the amount of withheld State ERG Grant that is applicable to such tax shall be released to the Developer in the manner provided in this Agreement. If the expiration of the applicable
statute of limitations occurs after the twenty (20) year term of the State ERG Grant, then notwithstanding such termination the amounts reserved pursuant to this Section (III)(5) shall be released to Developer as and when each such statute of
limitations expires. 
 6. An annual charge of $5,000 and all additional reasonable administrative costs associated with this
State Incentive Grant shall be assessed to Developer and retained by the Director of Taxation, from the annual incentive grant payments, subject to ERG regulations becoming final.

1. Notify all businesses conducting operations on or at the Developer Project Area that certain incremental taxes are pledged under this
Agreement and shall obtain information about such businesses as is necessary for the State to ascertain the incremental tax revenue, including but not limited to the name, address, taxpayer identification number, change in business ownership and any

2. Comply with all applicable law, and specifically, that the Project will comply with (i) the Authority’s prevailing wage
requirements as set forth in N.J.S.A. 34:1B-5.1, (ii) the Authority’s affirmative action requirements as set forth in N.J.S.A. 34:1B-5.4, (iii) either the Interim Guidelines for the Green Energy Manual or the New Jersey

 4. Provide such additional financial and other information as the State may reasonably request, which may include annual audited financial statements, in order to enable the State to confirm (i) the
Project Cost Statement referred to above, (ii) the use of funds deposited in the Project Development Account, and (iii) the payment of Dividends (as such term is defined in Section V (6) below). 

5. Undertake to complete the respective ERG Funded Projects expeditiously, as funds on deposit in the Project Development Account
reasonably permit, subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In connection with the foregoing covenant, Developer shall provide the Authority with copies of contracts, proposals, plans, budgets, and other information with
respect to each proposed ERG Funded Project at or before the commencement thereof for purposes of the Authority’s review and consent to the release of monies from the Project Development, to the extent allocable to such ERG Funded Project, as
is contemplated in Section I(5) above. The Authority and Developer shall review, on an annual basis, the balance of the Project Development Account to determine the feasibility of a disbursement to fund any ERG Funded Projects based upon the
estimated cost thereof. 
 6. The Authority and the State Treasurer acknowledge that, in connection with the issuance by the
Issuer of second lien notes (the “Second Lien Notes”) to certain investors (the “Second Lien Note Holders”), Issuer would issue warrants (“Warrants”) to the Second Lien Note Holders to acquire
ninety percent (90%) (on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants and not taking into account unvested shares) of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer (the “Common Stock”) measured as of the
issuance date (the “Issue Date”) of the Warrants (subject to decrease upon the occurrence of the Vesting Events (as defined below) 

  
 7 








 
to 85% of the outstanding Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants) measured as of the Issue Date). Accordingly, on a fully diluted basis after
giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants, on the Issue Date, the then current management of the Issuer (the “Management Stockholders”) will beneficially own in the aggregate ten (10%) percent of the outstanding
Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants and not taking into account unvested shares) measured as of the Issue Date (subject to increase upon the occurrence of the Vesting Events to 15% of the
outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer (on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants) measured as of the Issue Date. The Authority and the State Treasurer further acknowledge that, if either or both of two
(2) events described more fully in the terms of the Warrants (the “Vesting Events”) occur, unvested shares held in escrow by the Issuer would vest such that immediately after such vesting, the Management Stockholders’ beneficial
ownership of the Common Stock shall be increased to 12.5% if one of such events occurs (and 15% if both such Vesting Events occur) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis giving effect to the exercise of all of the
Warrants and not taking into account unvested shares) measured as of the Issue Date. Upon the actual payment to the Management Stockholders of any cash dividend by the Issuer (a “Dividend”), whether arising from income generated
from the operation of the Project, a sale of assets of the Issuer, a recapitalization including Issuer, an initial placement offering by the Issuer, or a similar event, the amount of the Dividend that the Management Stockholders are entitled to
receive shall be reduced by, and the Issuer shall pay to the Authority, an amount that would be paid to the Authority as if, and on the basis that, the Authority directly owned twenty (20%) percent of the ten (10%) percent of Common Stock
(on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the exercise of all of the Warrants and not taking into account unvested shares (the “State Distribution Proceeds”)) initially owned by the Management Stockholders (i.e., a sum equal
to two (2%) percent of the Dividend); provided, that the State Distribution Proceeds payable by the Issuer to the Authority on the date of payment of the Dividend shall be increased, if either or both of the Vesting Events occurs, to a sum
equal to two and one-half (2.5%) or to three (3.0%) percent of the Dividend, as may be applicable; provided, further, that the Authority shall at no time actually own or become entitled to own any Common Stock, and the Authority’s
interest in the State Distribution Proceeds shall be limited solely to monies as, when, and to the extent actually paid by the Issuer in the form of a Dividend. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of State
Distribution Proceeds actually paid by Issuer to Authority shall at no time exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the applicable State Percentage of the specific, paid Dividend (i.e., 2%, 2.5%, or 3% based upon the occurrence of the
Vesting Events), or (ii) the total amount of the State ERG Grant proceeds that have actually been reimbursed to Developer as of the date of payment of the Dividend, less the amount of any previously paid State Distribution Proceeds. 

 

	VI.	ASSIGNMENT 

 1. Except as
is provided in this Section VI(1) and in Article VII below, Developer shall not assign or pledge this Agreement for the security of any loan without the express written consent of the Authority and the State Treasurer, as is provided in the Act.


  
 8 









	VII.	ASSIGNMENT OF AGREEMENT; PROJECT DEVELOPMENT ACCOUNT 

 1. Under and pursuant to the terms of Section 489i(g) of the Act, upon the execution of this Agreement, the State Treasurer and the Authority shall be deemed to have consented to the assignment of
this Agreement in connection with the following transactions and to have agreed to the terms below relating to the funding of the Project Development Account: 
 (a) Developer shall be and is hereby authorized to pledge and assign as security its right, title, and interest in and to this Agreement (provided, however, that upon any such pledge and assignment
Developer shall not be exculpated from, and the State Treasurer and the Authority reserve the right to enforce against Developer, the performance by Developer of its covenants and obligations to the State Treasurer and the Authority as provided in
this Agreement), including, without limitation, up to Seventy Million ($70,000,000) Dollars of the proceeds of the State ERG Grant payments to be remitted to Developer under this Agreement by the payment thereof, in the manner provided below, to a
separate escrow account pursuant to Section 489ig of the Act (the “Pledged Account”) to be established with an independent financial institution, which pledge, assignment, and Pledged Account shall be a credit enhancement to
the Second Lien Note Holders in the event that the aggregate original principal amount the Second Lien Notes is at least $75,000,000, to finance a portion of the costs to complete the Project. 

(b) The Pledged Account shall be funded by the remittance of a sum equal to forty-five (45%) percent of the proceeds of the annual
State ERG Grant as and when such proceeds are reimbursed to Developer (or at the request of Developer, to the Issuer) under this Agreement; the remaining fifty-five (55%) percent of such proceeds shall be paid into the Project Development
Account. The foregoing allocation shall not apply to the monies that are withheld by the Authority under the terms of Article III(5) above until, and to the extent that, monies are released therefrom. The funding of the Pledged Account as provided
in this Section VH(l)(b) shall continue until the earlier of such time as (i) the Pledged Account has a balance equal to the lesser of Seventy Million ($70,000,000) Dollars or the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien
Notes, or (ii) the occurrence of the Monetizing Event, as such term is defined in Section VII(1)(c) below. 
 (c)
Developer shall use its good faith efforts to procure and obtain the issuance of a loan in the principal amount of at least $100,000,000, which may require, pursuant to Section 489ig of the Act, the pledge or assignment by Developer of all of
its right, title, and interest in and to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the proceeds of the State ERG Grant payments (excluding the proceeds to be deposited in the Pledged Account) under this Agreement (the “Monetizing
Event”). At such time and upon the closing and funding of the Monetizing Event, the amount necessary to increase the then current balance of the Pledged Account to the lesser of (i) Seventy Million ($70,000,000) Dollars, or
(ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding, shall be remitted directly from the proceeds of such Monetizing Event for deposit into the Pledged Account. 

(d) Developer shall grant to the Second Lien Note holders a first priority lien on the State ERG Grant proceeds as and when they are
paid into the Pledged Account; provided, however, that the amounts paid into the Pledged Account shall be retained in the Pledged Account and shall not be released to the Second Lien Note holders except upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as
defined in the Second Lien Note), at which time the proceeds of the Pledged Account may be released to the Second Lien Note Holders solely to pay principal, interest and other amounts due and payable under the Second Lien Notes. 

  
 9 








 (e) Under and pursuant to the terms of Section 489ig of the Act, the Developer may
pledge and assign, as security for a loan, any or all of its right, title, and interest in and to a redevelopment grant agreement with the Authority and the State Treasurer, upon and with their consent. Accordingly, prior to and until the occurrence
of the Monetizing Event, in addition to the first priority lien of the Second Lien Note Holders on the proceeds that are actually paid into the Pledged Account, Developer shall pledge and assign to the Second Lien Note Holders all of
Developer’s right, title and interest in and to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the State ERG Grant payments that are or may subsequently be reimbursed to Developer under this Agreement; provided that, and as a condition thereof,
upon the occurrence of the Monetizing Event, the Second Lien Note Holders shall execute and deliver a release, and shall cause a termination or discharge to be filed of record, if applicable, of all of their right, title, and interest in and to this
Agreement, including, without limitation, the State ERG Grant payments, except with respect to the Pledged Account, as provided in Section VII(l)(a) above. Upon such release and termination, the rights of the Second Lien Note Holders to the State
ERG Grant payments shall be limited to their claims to the then outstanding balance of the Pledged Account. 
 (f) Upon the
Pledged Account having a balance equal to the lesser of (i) Seventy Million ($70,000,000) Dollars, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Note then outstanding, Developer’s principal payments to Second Lien Note
holders, as and when remitted, will be deemed to directly reduce the balance required to be maintained in the Pledged Account on a dollar-for-dollar basis equal to the amounts of the principal payments (the “Reduced Principal
Amounts”) so remitted to the Second Lien Note Holders, and the Reduced Principal Amounts shall be remitted to the Project Development Account. 
 (g) Upon a refinancing of the Second Lien Note and/or the satisfaction thereof, all proceeds in the Pledged Account will be released to the Project Development Account for the purpose set forth in Section
VII(1)(f) above. 
 (h) Until such time that (A) the Pledged Account has a balance equal to the lesser of (i) Seventy
Million ($70,000,000) Dollars, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes then outstanding, or (B) the Second Lien Notes have been satisfied, the Developer has covenanted to the Second Lien Note Holders that it will
not agree to any modification or amendment of the terms of the State ERG Grant made to Developer in a manner that may materially adversely affect the Second Lien Note Holders without their prior written approval. 

VIII. INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE

employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless of, from and against any and all claims (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), demands, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and liabilities
for losses, damage and injury, resulting from or arising out of: (1) the financing of the costs of the Project, (2) the ownership, planning, design, acquisition, site preparation, transportation, construction, renovation, equipping,

“Project revenue” means all rents, fees, sales, and payments generated by a project, less taxes or other government payments.

 ATTACHMENT 4 
 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS DISCLOSURE FORM & INSTRUCTIONS 
 To be eligible for an award of
the subject Contract, the Contractor or Service Provider must comply with the requirements of Public Law 2005, Chapter 51 (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.13-20.25, superseding Executive Order 134 (2004)), hereinafter called “Chapter 51.” For these
purposes, the following definitions apply. 
 “Contribution” means a contribution reportable by the recipient under “The New
Jersey Campaign Contributions and Expenditures Reporting Act” P L 1973, c. 83 (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-1, et. seq.)„ and implementing regulations set forth at N.J.A.C. 19:25-7 and N.J.A.C. 19:25-10.1, et. seq. Currently, contributions in excess of
$300 during a reporting period are deemed “reportable” under these laws. 
 “Business Entity” means any natural or legal
person, business corporation, professional services corporation, limited liability company, partnership, limited partnership, business trust, association or any other legal commercial entity organized under the laws of New Jersey or any other state
of foreign jurisdiction. It also includes (i) all principals who own or control more than 10 percent of the profits or assets of a business entity or 10 percent of the stock in the case of a business entity that is a corporation for profit, as
appropriate; (ii) any subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity; (iii) any political organization organized under 26 U.S.C.A. 527 that is directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity, other than a
candidate committee, election fund, or political party committee; and (iv) if a business entity is a natural person, that person’s spouse or child, residing in the same household. 
 References to “Bidder” include any entity which contemplates entering into a contractual relationship with the State, including vendors, potential vendors, contractors, consultants, sellers.

 It shall be a breach of the terms of the contract for the Business Entity to (i) make or solicit a contribution in violation of Chapter
51, (ii) knowingly conceal or misrepresent a contribution given or received, (iii) make or solicit contributions through intermediaries for the purpose of concealing or misrepresenting the source of the contribution; (iv) make or solicit
any contribution on the condition or with the agreement that it will be contributed to a campaign committee or any candidate or holder of the public office of Governor, or to any State or county party committee; (v) engage or employ a lobbyist or
consultant with the intent or understanding that such lobbyist or consultant would make or solicit any contribution which, if made or solicited by the Business Entity itself, would subject that entity to the restrictions of Chapter 51;
(vi) fund contributions made by third parties, including consultants, attorneys, family members, and employees; (vii) engage in any exchange of contributions to circumvent the intent of Chapter 51; or (viii) directly or indirectly,
through or by any other person or means, commit any act which would subject that entity to the restrictions of Chapter 51. 
 The CRDA shall not
enter into a contract to procure from any Business Entity any services, goods, material, supplies, or equipment, where the value of the transaction exceeds $17,500, if that Business Entity has solicited or made any contribution of money, or pledge
of contribution, including in-kind contribution to a candidate committee and/or election fund of any candidate for or holder of the public office of Governor, or to any State or county political party committee during the time periods specified in
Chapter 51. 
 Additionally, prior to awarding any contract or agreement to any Business Entity, the Business Entity proposed as the intended
awardee of the contract shall-report all contributions the Business Entity made during the preceding four years to any political organization organized under 26 U.S.C. 527 of the Internal Revenue Code that also meets the definition of a
“continuing political committee” within the mean of N.J.S.A. 19:44A-3(n) and N.J.A.C. 19:25-1.7. Accordingly, the Business Entity shall submit with its bid proposal the “Contractor Certification and Disclosure of Political
Contributions” Form attached hereto. 
 A separate Certification and Disclosure is required for each person and/or organization defined
above as a Business Entity — therefore, more than one Certification and Disclosure may be required for you to comply with Chapter 51. Failure to submit the Certification and Disclosure(s) may be cause for rejection of the proposal.
