18

Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that any of the other Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent noncompliance with, or breaches or violations of, the provisions of this Agreement by any of the other Parties and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which any of the Parties may be entitled, at law or in equity.

Section 9.8    Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be novated, transferred or assigned, in whole or in part, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Enstar and the Retrocessionaire shall have the right to syndicate, reinsure or otherwise share the losses to be reinsured under the ADC Agreement, provided that in no way shall such sharing of losses by the Retrocessionaire lessen or in any way diminish the Retrocessionaire’s obligations to Maiden Insurance under the ADC Agreement.

Maiden and Maiden Insurance make no express or implied representation or warranty hereby or otherwise under this Agreement, that the reserves held by them with respect to Underlying Business or the assets supporting such reserves have been or will be adequate or sufficient for the purposes for which they were established, that the reinsurance recoverables taken into account in determining the amount of such reserves will be collectible, or concerning any financial statement “line item” or asset, liability or equity amount that would be affected by any of the foregoing.

This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.  The Parties agree that transmission of copies of original signatures via electronic means, either by facsimile or as a “scanned” document attached to electronic mail, shall constitute valid execution of this Agreement.

	Item
	Description

	Parties
	Maiden Reinsurance and Retrocessionaire

	Business Reinsured
	Retrocessionaire would reinsure 100% of Maiden Reinsurance’s quota share of losses (“Covered Losses”) incurred under the Reinsured Policies on or prior to December 31, 2018 excess of the Retention up to the Limit.  Retrocessionaire would follow the fortunes of Maiden Reinsurance with respect to Covered Losses which would include all amounts payable by Maiden Reinsurance with respect to the Reinsured Policies under the Existing Quota Share Agreements, including, as applicable,  allocated loss adjustment expenses, extra contractual obligations and excess of loss payments.  Covered Losses would exclude amounts paid prior to the Effective Time, amounts paid after the Effective Time in satisfaction of liabilities due but unpaid under the Existing Quota Share Agreements with respect to cession statements for periods ending prior to  the Effective Time, unallocated loss adjustment expense and similar unallocated expenses, assessments, transfer taxes and other taxes imposed on Maiden Reinsurance (except taxes that are the obligation of Maiden Reinsurance pursuant to the Existing Quota Share Agreements).  Covered Losses would be net of inuring reinsurance, whether or not collected.

	Retention and Limit
	The retention would be the greater of (i) $2,441,358,809 or (ii) the amount equal to (A) the amount of reserves reported by Maiden with respect to the Underlying Business on its audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles as of December 31, 2018, minus (B) $500,000,000 (“Retention”).  Other than existing inuring reinsurance, Maiden Reinsurance would not reinsure all or any portion of its risk below the Retention without the Retrocessionaire’s consent, and Maiden Reinsurance will provide Enstar a right of first refusal with respect to any reinsurance Maiden Reinsurance seeks to acquire for all or any portion of its risk above the Limit.
The limit would be $675,000,000 (“Limit”).

	Effective Time
	The Effective Time would be 12:01 a.m. Eastern time on the January 1, 2019.

	Territory
	The territory would be coextensive with the territory of the Reinsured Policies.

	Reinsurance Premium
	Maiden Reinsurance would pay to Retrocessionaire a premium equal to $500,000,000 plus a credited interest rate, compounded monthly, of 2.64% per annum from January 1, 2019 through the Closing (the “Reinsurance Premium”).  As set forth in the Master Agreement and in the “Security” section below, on Retrocessionaire’s behalf, at Closing, Maiden Reinsurance would deposit/retain the Reinsurance Premium in sub-accounts created in the trust accounts under the Existing Trust Agreements and the Existing Quota Share Agreements, subject to the substitution of letters of credit as provided below and in the Master Agreement.  Retrocessionaire would also be entitled to all salvage and subrogation actually collected, in each case by or on behalf of Maiden Reinsurance and attributable to Covered Losses, for periods on and after December 31, 2018, to the extent it relates to a Covered Loss above the Retention and below the Limit.

	Reports and Settlement
	Maiden Reinsurance would provide to Retrocessionaire periodic accounting and other reports with respect to the subject business and Covered Losses as Retrocessionaire may reasonably require.  Retrocessionaire would settle amounts due by direct payment of Covered Losses to the ceding companies under the Existing Quota Share Agreements.

	Duration
and Term
	The ADC Agreement would commence on the Closing and terminate on the earlier of date on which (1) Retrocessionaire has paid aggregate Covered Losses excess of the Retention equal to the Limit, (2) Maiden Reinsurance’s liability under the Reinsured Policies for Covered Losses is terminated or extinguished and all amounts due under the ADC Agreement are paid, or (3) the Parties mutually agree to terminate the ADC Agreement.  Upon termination, Retrocessionaire would receive all remaining assets in the Trust Account and all uncollected recoverables.

B-1

	
		
	Claims Administration
	Maiden Reinsurance would administer reinsurance claims, salvage and subrogation and inuring reinsurance, subject to granting to Retrocessionaire a right of first refusal in the event Maiden Reinsurance determined to use a third party administrator for all or any portion of the administration.  The parties would enter into an agreement with the underlying cedents with respect to the management and oversight of claims.

	Insolvency
	Standard insolvency provisions to be included. 

	Security
	Retrocessionaire would provide security to Maiden Reinsurance in the form of a trust account (“Trust Account”) established pursuant to a new or modified trust agreement to be entered into on the Closing date (“Trust Agreement”) or, as contemplated in the Master Agreement, letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $500,000,000 on the Closing date.  The Trust Account will be one or more of the existing trust accounts (or a replacement therefor) that Maiden Reinsurance maintains pursuant to the Existing Quota Share Agreements, with the related trust agreements to be modified to take into the account the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement and this Term Sheet, including the segregation of assets in such trust accounts into sub-accounts and the delegation to the Retrocessionaire of investment control over the relevant sub-accounts, as contemplated by the Master Agreement.  Retrocessionaire would ensure the Trust Account holds assets with a market value greater than or equal to the trust funding amount, which shall be equal to the net reserves of Maiden Reinsurance attributable to Covered Losses in excess of the Retention up to the Limit (which trust funding amount the Parties acknowledge is equal to $500,000,000 as of the Closing Date) minus the amount of any collateral posted in the form of a letter of credit. The trust funding amount shall be determined on a quarterly basis, with year-end determinations being made by a Maiden Reinsurance’s BMA approved independent actuary and each other quarterly determination being made by Maiden Reinsurance. Quarterly and year-end determinations will be subject to customary dispute resolution by a mutually acceptable independent actuary.  The Trust Account would be initially funded by Maiden Reinsurance and Retrocessionaire as set forth in the Master Agreement.  Maiden Reinsurance would provide quarterly reporting specifying the trust required amount and any overfunding or underfunding of the Trust Account. Retrocessionaire would deposit into the Trust Account any required underfunding (or provide additional letters of credit, including up to the $175,000,000 limit above the Initial Funds Withheld Account Balance if required), and would be entitled to withdraw from the Trust Account any overfunding.  Maiden Reinsurance would be permitted to withdraw assets from the Trust Account solely for the purposes of paying Covered Losses, and would be required to return to the Trust Accounts withdrawals not used for the specified purposes.  All amounts withdrawn and not immediately used to pay Covered Losses would be held in a segregated account in trust of the sole and exclusive benefit of Retrocessionaire.  All assets in the Trust Account would comply with and be invested in assets permitted under the Existing Quota Share Agreements with respect to the trusts created by the Existing Trust Agreements or under the Existing Quota Share Agreements.  The Trust Agreement would terminate promptly following termination of the ADC Agreement, with payment from the Trust Account of any amounts due to Maiden Reinsurance and any excess amounts to Retrocessionaire.

	Additional Collateral; Underlying Agreements
	Maiden Reinsurance would not utilize any assets in the Trust Account to post additional collateral in connection with the Reinsured Policies, and would not amend or permit amendment of any underlying agreements, including the Existing Quota Share Agreements, Existing Quota Share Trust Agreement and Existing Underlying Trust Agreements, without the written consent of the Retrocessionaire.

	Currency
	U.S. Dollars

	Other Terms and Conditions
	The ADC Agreement would contain further customary terms and conditions for agreements of this type.

Exhibit 10.1

AIRCRAFT DRY LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS AIRCRAFT DRY LEASE AGREEMENT (this “Lease”) is entered in effective as of May 6, 2019, by and between BRIGHID AIR, LLC, a New York limited liability company with an address at 340 Crossways Park Drive, Woodbury, NY 11797 (“Lessor”) and MSG SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with an address at Two Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, New York 10121 (“Lessee” or “MSG”).
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, Lessor is the owner of a Bombardier BD100-1A10 Challenger 350 aircraft, manufacturer’s serial number 20611, United States registration N350 PD, including its engines, accessories, components and parts (the “Aircraft”); and
WHEREAS, the parties have agreed that Lessor shall lease the Aircraft to Lessee on a non-exclusive basis for use by Lessee upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
		
	1.
	Lease of Aircraft.

(a)This Lease sets forth the exclusive terms and conditions under which Lessee is entitled to use the Aircraft, and Lessee shall have no right to use the Aircraft except as expressly set forth herein. Lessor shall lease the Aircraft to Lessee, and Lessee shall lease the Aircraft from Lessor, during all Lease Periods throughout the Term (as defined in Section 12) of this Lease as provided hereunder. “Lease Periods” shall mean those times, if any, when the Aircraft is being utilized by Lessee hereunder, with the consent of Lessor as provided in Section 1(e), for flight operations conducted by Lessee under Part 91 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”), including any deadhead, ferry or repositioning flights to return the Aircraft to the airport at which the Lease Period commenced or to position the Aircraft for a Lessee trip at a remote location away from Republic Airport, Farmingdale, New York (KFRG), but excluding any deadhead, ferry and repositioning flights described in Section 1(b) below (“Lessee Flights”). Lessee’s right to use the Aircraft hereunder during the Term shall be non-exclusive and is subject in all respects to (i) Lessor’s right to use the Aircraft at all times during the Term other than during such Lease Periods and (ii) Lessor’s right to permit other non-exclusive lessees to use the Aircraft under their operational control and possession, command and control

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that if a trip by Lessee causes or will cause the Aircraft to be at a remote location away from KFRG (“Lessee’s Location”), Lessee shall, at Lessor’s request, permit the Aircraft to be relocated from Lessee’s Location to KFRG or other location designated by Lessor (and thereafter shall be returned to Lessee’s Location) if Lessor requires use of the Aircraft directly or for one of its affiliated non-exclusive lessees, but only if such itinerary will not unreasonably delay or interfere with any scheduled flight by Lessee. In that event, (i) Lessee’s then-current Lease Period shall terminate effective as of initial engine start-up for the departure flight from Lessee’s Location; (ii) Lessor or its affiliated non-exclusive lessee shall pay all costs incurred during the period in which the Aircraft is away from Lessee’s Location, including all occupied and deadhead legs to ferry the Aircraft from Lessee’s Location and back; and (iii) a new Lease Period shall begin effective as of final engine shut-down upon return of the Aircraft to Lessee’s Location.

(c)Transfer of the Aircraft from Lessor to Lessee to commence a Lease Period 

hereunder, and transfer of the Aircraft from Lessee to Lessor to terminate a Lease Period hereunder, shall be evidenced by the entry of appropriate notations of such transfer on the Aircraft’s logs. Upon the commencement or termination of any Lease Period hereunder, the party transferring possession of the Aircraft shall deliver the Aircraft to the other party at KFRG or such other location as the parties may agree. In the case of a transfer of possession from Lessee to Lessor, the Aircraft shall be in at least the same operating condition, order, repair and condition as when received by Lessee at the commencement of the Lease Period, reasonable wear and tear and maintenance events arising during the Lease Period not caused by Lessee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct excepted.

(d)Subject to Aircraft and crew availability, Lessor shall use its good faith efforts, consistent with Lessor’s approved policies, in order to accommodate the needs of Lessee, to avoid conflicts in scheduling with Lessor’s affiliated non-exclusive lessees’ use of the Aircraft, and to enable Lessee to enjoy the benefits of this Lease; however, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Lessor shall have sole and exclusive final authority over the scheduling of the Aircraft and Lessor’s other affiliated non­exclusive lessees’ needs for the Aircraft shall take precedence over Lessee’s rights and Lessor’s obligations under this Lease pursuant to Section 1(e).

(e)Lessee shall use its reasonable efforts to give Lessor as much advance notice of Lessee’s proposed utilization hereunder. If Lessee notifies Lessor pursuant to Section 15 of Lessee’s proposed use of the Aircraft and Lessor consents thereto, the period described in such notice of proposed use may be scheduled by Lessee (unless such intended use is cancelled by Lessee by like notice to Lessor). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all Lessee Flights approved by Lessor and scheduled by Lessee are subject to the absolute right of Lessor to revoke such approval at any time prior to twenty four (24) hours before the scheduled departure of the initial flight of the approved itinerary, without liability, upon notice to Lessee. Any notice under this Section 1(e) may be either written or oral, but shall be given only to or by individuals designated by each party from time to time as authorized to act on its behalf for purposes of this Section 1(e).

		
	2.
	Rent.

(a)Lessee shall remit to Lessor the sum per block hour set forth on Schedule 1 hereto from time to time as Rent for the use of the Aircraft by Lessee during each Lease Period hereunder.  For this purpose, a “block hour” shall be measured in hours and tenths of hours, rounded to the nearest tenth of an hour, from the time the Aircraft moves for purposes of flight at the departure airport to the time the Aircraft comes to a stop at the arrival airport.

(b)Not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the Term, Lessee shall provide to Lessor a statement showing all use of the Aircraft during Lease Periods during that month, and a complete accounting detailing any Rent due from Lessee for that month. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Lessee shall have no obligation to utilize the Aircraft hereunder, and there shall be no Rent payable to Lessor hereunder with respect to any calendar month if Lessee does not use the Aircraft hereunder during such month. All payments of Rent due for any calendar month shall be made at Lessor’s address set forth above, or at such other place as Lessor may designate to Lessee in writing from time to time, not later than the thirtieth (30th) day of the following month.

(b)Only fully-qualified and properly-credentialed flight crew members who are included under the insurance coverage required to be maintained hereunder shall be permitted to operate the Aircraft during any Lease Period. All flight crew utilized by Lessee hereunder shall comply with all applicable regulations and the requirements of all applicable operations and maintenance manuals.

5.Operational Control; Operations.

(a)Lessor and Lessee intend that the lease of the Aircraft effected hereby shall be treated as a “dry lease”. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Lessee shall have complete and exclusive operational control, and complete and exclusive possession, command and control, of the Aircraft for all flights during each Lease Period under this Lease. Lessee shall have complete and absolute control of the crewmembers in preparation for and in connection with the operation of all flights during each Lease Period under this Lease. Lessee shall have complete and exclusive responsibility for scheduling, dispatching and flight following of the Aircraft on all flights conducted during Lease Periods under this Lease, which responsibility includes the sole and exclusive right over initiating, conducting and terminating any such flights. Lessee shall have no operational control over any flights of the Aircraft not conducted during Lease Periods under this Lease.
(b)Lessee shall use and operate the Aircraft under this Lease only in accordance with applicable manufacturers’ recommendations and airport and climatic conditions. Neither Lessee nor Lessor shall permit the Aircraft to be maintained, used or operated in violation of any law, rule, regulation, ordinance or order of any governmental authority having jurisdiction, or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the Aircraft.

6.Regulatory. Lessee shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect any necessary certificates, licenses, permits and authorizations required for its use and operation of the Aircraft hereunder. Lessee agrees to conduct all operations contemplated by this Lease in compliance with all applicable provisions of the FARs, including, but not limited to, Part 91 thereof.

7.Records.      Lessee shall maintain any records required by applicable laws, rules or regulations in connection with the operation of the Aircraft during any Lease Period hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lessee shall maintain or cause to be maintained flight log books

showing the full flight time of the Aircraft during each Lease Period hereunder, and shall keep such logs available for inspection by Lessor or its representatives at all reasonable times. Lessor shall be entitled, upon reasonable notice to Lessee, to inspect any books or records of Lessee that relate to the Aircraft’s use hereunder.

8.Remote Locations. Lessee shall pay the cost of hangaring the Aircraft at remote locations during any Lease Periods hereunder.

9.Insurance.

(a)During the Term, Lessor will procure and maintain or cause to be procured and maintained at its sole cost and expense aircraft insurance (the “Policy”) that satisfies all of the requirements of this Section 9.  The Policy will provide: (i) all risk, both ground and in-flight hull, including hull war risks, insurance in an amount equal to the most recent appraised fair market value of the Aircraft; and (ii) liability coverage covering passengers, non-passengers, third party liability (including war risk AV52) and property damage of not less than two hundred fifty million ($250,000,000) United States dollars for each occurrence but sublimited to twenty five million ($25,000,000) United States dollars for each occurrence and aggregate with respect to Personal Injury Liability.

(b)The Policy will provide: (i) that Lessee and its affiliates and each of their respective members, managers, shareholders, officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, licensees and guests are designated as additional insureds (without responsibility for premiums) with respect to the liability coverage; (ii) that the insurer waives any right of set-off and any right of subrogation against any of the additional insureds; (iii) that no cancellation or substantial change in coverage of or failure to renew the Policy shall be effective as to the additional insureds for thirty (30) days (seven (7) days, in the case of war risk or allied perils) after receipt by Lessee of written notice from the insurer of any such cancellation or substantial change in coverage of the policy; (iv) that all coverages will be primary, not subject to any co-insurance clause, not contributory or subject to offset with respect to any other policies in force; (v) for a severability of interest clause providing that the Policy will operate in the same manner to give each insured the same protection as if there were a separate policy issued to each insured except for the limit of liability; and (vii) that the “Territory” section will provide Worldwide Coverage.

(c)On or before the date hereof, Lessor will provide Lessee with a certificate of insurance evidencing all coverages in compliance with the requirements of this Lease.

10.Maintenance.

No period of maintenance, preventive maintenance or inspection shall be delayed or postponed for the purpose of scheduling the Aircraft, unless said maintenance or inspection can be safely conducted at a later time in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Lessor represents and warrants that, at all times during the Term, the Aircraft will be in airworthy condition and current on the approved maintenance program. Lessee shall be responsible for obtaining letters of authorization in its own name as operator of the Aircraft for operations within RVSM, use of a MEL, or any other operator specific authorization required for Lessee’s operation of the Aircraft.

(iii)if Lessee operates or maintains the Aircraft in violation of any law, regulation, directive or order of any governmental authority or in violation of any provision of any insurance policy contemplated by this Lease, unless such violation can reasonably be cured, in which case Lessee shall have failed to cure such violation within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof;

(iv)if any representation or warranty made in this Lease by a party is or becomes false, misleading or incorrect in any material respect;

(v)lapse of insurance coverage required to be kept in force hereunder;

(vi)if a party shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or be declared insolvent or bankrupt under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or commence a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any such law or seeking the appointment of a receiver or liquidator over any substantial portion of its respective assets; 

(vii)assignment by a party of this Lease, except as permitted under Section 22, or any right or interest created hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party;

13.Remedies on Default or Termination. In the event of a termination of this Lease, whether as a result of a default or the expiration of its Term, Lessee shall immediately cease its use of the Aircraft 

5

and return the Aircraft and all records pertaining thereto to the custody of Lessor or its agents or representatives as set forth herein at such airport as Lessor and Lessee may agree. Not later than thirty (30) days after the termination of this Lease, a full accounting shall be made between Lessee and Lessor and all accounts settled between the parties. In no event shall any termination affect the rights and obligations of the parties arising prior to the effective date of such termination. Without prejudice to or limitation or modification of the other provisions of this Lease, in no event shall either party be liable to the other for damages relating to the loss of use of the Aircraft after the date of termination of this Lease, due to default or expiration of the Term or otherwise.
