			FORM OF NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINE HOLDINGS LTD.
		

		
			AMENDED AND RESTATED 2013 PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN
		

		
			RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
		

		
			THIS RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of [_____________] by and between Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”), and [Name] (the “Participant”).
		

		
			W I T N E S S E T H
		

		
			WHEREAS, pursuant to the Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. Amended and Restated 2013 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company has granted to the Participant effective as of the date hereof (the “Award Date”), a credit of restricted  share units under the Plan (the “Award”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.
		

		
			NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of services rendered and to be rendered by the Participant, and the mutual promises made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived therefrom, the parties agree as follows:
		

			
	
			
				 1.
			Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Plan.

			
	
			
				 2.
			Grant.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Participant  an  Award with respect to an aggregate target number of [__________] restricted share units (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7.1 of the Plan) (the “Share Units”).  As used herein, the term “share unit” shall mean a non-voting unit of measurement which is deemed for bookkeeping purposes to be equivalent to one outstanding Ordinary Share of the Company (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7.1 of the Plan) solely for purposes of the Plan and this Agreement.  The Share Units shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the payment to eventually be made to the Participant if such Share Units vest pursuant to Section 3.  The Share Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind.

			
	
			
				 3.
			Vesting.  Subject to Section 8 and the paragraphs in this Section below, the Award shall vest and become nonforfeitable upon, and subject to, the achievement of the performance hurdles and applicable time-based vesting requirements described in Annex A.  The Administrator shall determine whether the applicable performance hurdles have been achieved, and the vesting of the Share Units is subject to the Administrator’s determination.    If the Participant is a party to an employment or similar agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary that includes provisions addressing the vesting of equity awards, the Award shall also become vested as provided in such agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with certain qualifying terminations of the Participant’s employment and/or qualifying change in control transactions). Any portion of the Award that is not considered eligible to vest following the end of the applicable Performance Period as a result of performance results for the Performance Period, all as determined in accordance with Annex A, shall terminate and be forfeited effective as of the end of the Performance Period.

		
			Upon a termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company by the Company due to Participant’s death or disability, Participant will vest in a pro-rata portion of the target 

		 

		

			1

		

		

			

		

		

			 

		

number of Share Units specified in Section 2 (“Target Shares”) that are then outstanding and unvested. The pro-rata portion will be calculated as follows: (Target Shares ÷ number of days from Award Date to original vesting date specified in Annex A (including both beginning and end date)) x number of days from the Award Date to the date of termination due to death or disability. Any partial shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Disability as used in this paragraph shall mean a physical or mental impairment which, as reasonably determined by the Company, renders Participant unable to perform the essential functions of Participant’s employment with the Company, even with a reasonable accommodation that does not impose an undue hardship on the Company, for more than 90 days in any 180-day period, unless a longer period is required by federal, state or local law, in which case that longer period would apply. 
		

			
	
			
				 4.
			Continuance of Employment/Service.  Except as provided in Section 3, the vesting schedule requires continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the applicable installment of the Award and the rights and benefits under this Agreement.  Except as provided in Section 3, employment or service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Participant to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided in Section 8 below or under the Plan.

		
			Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan constitutes an employment or service commitment by the Company, affects the Participant’s status as an employee at will who is subject to termination without cause, confers upon the Participant any right to remain employed by or in service to the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate such employment or services, or affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease the Participant’s other compensation or benefits.  Nothing in this Agreement, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Participant without his or her consent thereto.
		

			
	
			
				 5.
			Dividend and Voting Rights.

			
	
			
				 (a)
			Limitations on Rights Associated with Units.  The Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, no dividend rights (except as expressly provided in Section 5(b) with respect to Dividend Equivalent Rights) and no voting rights, with respect to the Share Units and any Ordinary Shares underlying or issuable in respect of such Share Units until such Ordinary Shares are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant.  No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of such Ordinary Shares underlying or issuable in respect of such Share Units.

			
	
			
				 (b)
			Dividend Equivalent Rights Distributions.  As of any date that the Company pays an ordinary cash dividend on its Ordinary Shares, the Company shall credit the Participant with an additional number of Share Units equal to (i) the per share cash dividend paid by the Company on its Ordinary Shares on such date, multiplied by (ii) the total number of Share Units (including any dividend equivalents previously credited hereunder) (with such total number adjusted pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Plan) subject to the Award as of the related dividend payment record date, divided by (iii) the fair market value of an Ordinary Share on the date of payment of such dividend.  Any Share Units credited pursuant to the foregoing provisions 

		 

		

			2

		

		

			 

		

	of this Section 5(b) shall be subject to the same vesting, payment and other terms, conditions and restrictions as the original Share Units to which they relate.  No crediting of Share Units shall be made pursuant to this Section 5(b) with respect to any Share Units which, as of such record date, have either been paid pursuant to Section 7 or terminated pursuant to Section 3 or Section 8.

			
	
			
				 6.
			Restrictions on Transfer.  Neither the Award, nor any interest therein or amount or shares payable in respect thereof (until such shares underlying the Award have been issued) may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, alienated or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily.  The transfer restrictions in the preceding sentence shall not apply to (a) transfers to the Company, or (b) transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

			
	
			
				 7.
			Timing and Manner of Payment of Share Units.  On or as soon as administratively practical following each vesting of the applicable portion of the total Award pursuant to Section 3 hereof or Section 7 of the Plan (and in all events not later than two and one-half months after the applicable vesting date), the Company shall deliver to the Participant a number of whole Ordinary Shares (with any fractional shares rounded down), either by delivering one or more certificates for such shares or by entering such shares in book entry form, as determined by the Company in its discretion, equal to the number of Share Units subject to this Award that vest on the applicable vesting date, unless such Share Units terminate prior to the given vesting date pursuant to Section 3 or Section 8. To the extent required to comply with the short-term deferral exception under Section 457A of the Code, in the event the Participant becomes entitled to vest in any Share Units pursuant to an employment or similar agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary that includes provisions permitting performance-based equity awards to remain outstanding and eligible to vest following a qualifying termination of employment that occurs in the [2020 calendar year, the Company shall deliver a number of Ordinary Shares equal to its best estimate of the number of vested Share Units prior to the end of the 2021 calendar year].  The  Company’s obligation to deliver Ordinary Shares or otherwise make payment with respect to vested Share Units is subject to the condition precedent that the Participant or other person entitled under the Plan to receive any shares with respect to the vested Share Units deliver to the Company any representations or other documents or assurances required pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan.  The Participant shall have no further rights with respect to any Share Units that are paid or that terminate pursuant to Section 3 or Section 8.

			
	
			
				 8.
			Effect of Termination of Employment or Service.    Except as provided in Section 3, the Participant’s Share Units shall terminate and be forfeited to the extent such units have not become vested prior to the first date the Participant is no longer employed by or in service to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, regardless of the reason for the termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or a Subsidiary, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.  If any unvested Share Units are terminated hereunder, such Share Units shall automatically terminate and be forfeited as of the applicable termination date without payment of any consideration by the Company and without any other action by the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary or personal representative, as the case may be.

			
	
			
				 9.
			Adjustments Upon Specified Events.  Upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the Company’s shares contemplated by Section 7.1 of the Plan (including, without limitation, an extraordinary cash dividend on such Ordinary Share), the Administrator shall make adjustments in accordance with such section in the number of Share Units then outstanding and 

		 

		

			3

		

		

			 

		

	the number and kind of securities that may be issued in respect of the Award.  No such adjustment shall be made with respect to any ordinary cash dividend for which dividend equivalents are credited pursuant to Section 5(b).  Each of the performance hurdles referred to in Section 3 shall also be subject to equitable and proportionate adjustment under Section 7.1 of the Plan.

			
	
			
				 10.
			Tax Withholding.  Subject to Section 8.1 of the Plan, upon any distribution of Ordinary Shares in respect of the Share Units, the Company shall automatically reduce the number of shares to be delivered by (or otherwise reacquire) the appropriate number of whole shares, valued at their then fair market value (with the “fair market value” of such shares determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan), to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to such distribution of shares at any applicable withholding rates.  In the event that the Company cannot legally satisfy such withholding obligations by such reduction of shares, or in the event of a cash payment or any other withholding event in respect of the Share Units, the Company (or a  Subsidiary) shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the Participant and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to such distribution or payment.

			
	
			
				 11.
			Notices.  Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing or any electronic form approved by the General Counsel and addressed to the Company at its principal office to the attention of the General Counsel or to any designee approved by the General Counsel, and to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected on the Company’s records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter properly designate to the other.  Any such notice shall be given only when received, but if the Participant is no longer an employee of or in service to the Company, shall be deemed to have been duly given by the Company when sent to the last physical or email address reflected on the Company’s records.

			
	
			
				 12.
			Plan.  The Award and all rights of the Participant under this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the provisions of the Plan, incorporated herein by reference.  The Participant agrees to be bound by the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.  The Participant acknowledges having read and understanding the Plan, the Prospectus for the Plan, and this Agreement.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in other sections of this Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the Board or the Administrator do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in the Participant unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Board or the Administrator so conferred by appropriate action of the Board or the Administrator under the Plan after the date hereof.

			
	
			
				 13.
			Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the Plan together constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.  The Plan and this Agreement may be amended pursuant to Section 8.6 of the Plan.  Such amendment must be in writing and signed by the Company.  The Company may, however, unilaterally waive any provision hereof in writing to the extent such waiver does not adversely affect the interests of the Participant hereunder, but no such waiver shall operate as or be construed to be a subsequent waiver of the same provision or a waiver of any other provision hereof.

		
			

		 

		

			4

		

		

			 

		

		

			
	
			
				 14.
			Limitation on Participant’s Rights.  Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided.  This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust.  Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets.  The Participant shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Share Units, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Ordinary Shares as a general unsecured creditor with respect to Share Units, as and when payable hereunder.  

			
	
			
				 15.
			Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  

			
	
			
				 16.
			Section Headings.  The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect any provision hereof.

			
	
			
				 17.
			Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Bermuda without regard to conflict of law principles thereunder.

			
	
			
				 18.
			Section 409A and 457A.  It is intended that the terms of the Award will not result in the imposition of any tax liability pursuant to Section 409A or 457A of the Code.  This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent.  If the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), the Participant shall not be entitled to any payment pursuant to Section 7 until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after the Participant’s separation from service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of the Participant’s death. The provisions of this Section shall only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

			
	
			
				 19.
			Clawback Policy.  The Share Units are subject to the terms of the Company’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as it may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of the Share Units or any Ordinary Shares or other cash or property received with respect to the Share Units (including any value received from a disposition of the shares acquired upon payment of the Share Units).

			
	
			
				 20.
			No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own tax, legal and/or investment advisors with respect to any advice the Participant may determine is needed or appropriate with respect to the Share Units (including, without limitation, to determine the foreign, state, local, estate and/or gift tax consequences with respect to the Award).  Neither the Company nor any of its officers, directors, affiliates or advisors makes any representation (except for the terms and conditions expressly set forth in this Award Agreement) or recommendation with respect to the Award.  Except for the withholding rights set forth in Section 10 above, the Participant is solely responsible for any and all tax liability that may arise with respect to the Award.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 1st day of October, 2019 by and between JOHN REDMOND (hereinafter “Executive”), whose address is 11492 Snow Creek Avenue, Las Vegas, Nevada 89135, and ALLEGIANT TRAVEL COMPANY, a Nevada corporation (hereinafter “the Company”), whose address is 1201 N. Town Center Drive, Las Vegas, Nevada 89144.

Compensation Premise

The Company has always been designed to be a travel company and much more than an airline. Throughout our history, we have sold hotel rooms, rental cars and attractions to our leisure customers to add to their leisure experience and to increase our profitability.  Historically, we have relied on our airline personnel to run all aspects of our business.

Having John Redmond on our Board of Directors since 2007 has provided us with his hotel experience in the role of independent Board member.  When John joined the management team as President in 2016, we were able to begin to benefit from his day to day management skills as well as his world-class experience as a hotel resort expert through his decades of leadership at MGM Resorts.

During these three years, John has immersed himself in the airline and helps to actively oversee all aspects of the business.  John has provided organizational skills, perspective and leadership throughout the organization.
    
As an airline, we garner only a small fraction of the vacation spend of our customers. By selling hotel rooms, rental cars and attractions as a middleman, our share increases but still leaves most of the vacation spend to other providers.  With the airline’s increasing presence in Florida (approximately 59% of our 2019 flights fly to or from Florida), John came up with and pursued the idea of building a resort in Florida to be filled from the millions of passengers we fly to Florida each year.  This initiative will substantially increase  our share of our passengers’ vacation spend, increase our profitability and value, and move us toward the vision of being a travel company.  

In pursuit of this objective, John toured Florida and located approximately 22 acres of waterfront land on which to build a resort (“Sunseeker Resort” or the “Project”).  John negotiated purchase contracts on 15 different parcels to create the assemblage on an anonymous basis.  John closed on the properties and then continued the necessary work to create a one-of-a-kind project.  He worked to create a favorable relationship with the Charlotte County Commissioners and other stakeholders in the area. He engaged a trusted construction colleague with whom he worked previously at MGM to head up the project design and construction.  He has overseen and actively participated in the concept, design and all other aspects of the project.  He has hired industry leaders and veterans to head up the planning and operation of the resort, food and beverage and group sales.  While any new venture involves risk, the leadership team John has put together will mitigate that risk.

When evaluating John’s compensation against similarly titled individuals at other airlines, the Compensation Committee is recognizing that John is responsible for the transformation and expected value creation by expanding the Company’s horizon from being an airline to truly being a travel company with its own resort property to be integrated with the airline. Similarly titled individuals at other airlines are believed to be more in the nature of caretakers, tweaking business models to subtly impact revenues, costs, competitive 

advantages or working conditions in comparison with their direct competitors.  None of these other executives is responsible for the transformation of their company’s business model as John is.

The Company is investing heavily in Sunseeker Resort, but the project is truly John’s creation.  The compensation package in this Agreement recognizes John’s continuing contributions to the overall enterprise (through the grant of restricted stock vesting over time which serves as his base compensation) but then provides John with significant upside through a one-time performance driven bonus based on the EBITDA performance of the Project after the first full year of operations of each Phase.  Based on input from financial advisors, the overall value to the Company can be calculated through a multiple of EBITDA and a corresponding bonus calculated.  If Sunseeker Resort is solidly accretive to EBITDA as the Company expects, John will be rewarded, but the Sunseeker bonus is not guaranteed. 

John’s compensation under this Agreement will be predominantly in shares of Company stock.  As John is agreeing not to sell any of such stock before the end of the three-year term of this Agreement, John is committed to growing, and his remuneration is dependent on, the value of the Company as a whole. 

W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ Executive as its president and Executive desires to continue to be so employed pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and 
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the above premises, the terms and covenants herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by Executive and the Company, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1.Employment.  The Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby accepts employment by the Company upon all of the terms and conditions as are hereinafter set forth.

C.Executive shall be required to reside in Las Vegas, Nevada during his employment under this Agreement.

D.Executive’s expenditure of reasonable amounts of time in connection with outside activities, not competitive with the business of the Company, such as outside directorships or charitable activities, shall not be considered in contravention of this Agreement so long as such activities do not interfere with his performance of this Agreement.  Further, it is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that Executive is entitled to engage in passive and personal investment activities not interfering with his performance of this Agreement.

3.Limitations of Duties.  Executive shall not, without written consent first being given by the Company, which consent may be general authority from the Company:

Executive shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all damages, actions, causes of action, claims and other liabilities, contingent or otherwise, directed toward the Company by others as a result of Executive’s violation of any of the provisions of this Item 3.
4.Compensation.  

A.Equity Grants.  Upon the effective date of this Agreement, Executive will be granted 87,000 shares (the “2019 Grants”) of restricted stock  under the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan.  

As of January 31, 2020, the Company shall grant Executive on additional 18,000 shares (the “2020 Grants” and together with the 2019 Grants, the “Restricted Stock”) of restricted stock if he is then employed by the Company.

B.Restricted Stock.  The Restricted Stock will be subject to the terms of Restricted Stock Agreements to be entered into between the Company and Executive to evidence this grant.  The 2019 Grants will vest as follows: (i) one-third (1/3) or 29,000 shares upon the first anniversary of this Agreement; and (ii) the remaining two-thirds (55,000 shares) in four (4) equal semi-annual installments (14,500 shares each) commencing on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the date of grant.  The 2020 Grants will vest as follows: (i) one-third or 6,000 shares on January 31, 2021; and (ii) the remaining two-thirds (12,000 shares) in four (4) equal semi-annual installments (3,000 shares each) commencing on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the date of the 2019 Grants. Unvested Restricted Stock will be subject to accelerated pro-rata vesting to the extent provided in this Agreement.  Executive shall be entitled to vote all vested and unvested shares of Restricted Stock and to receive all dividends paid thereon, until and unless such time as such shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Stock Agreement evidencing such grant.

C.Sunseeker Bonus.  Executive shall be entitled to receive a bonus based on the performance of the  Project during the first year of operations of Phase 1 of the Project and also based on the performance of the Project during the first year of operations of the Project after completion of any Subsequent Phase of the Project in accordance with the terms below. The Project shall include all development on the “Sunseeker Property” (the approximate 22-acres assembled by Executive on behalf of the Company). 

		
	(i)
	Phase 1 of the Project consists of a hotel (estimated to consist of 510 rooms), two separate towers including 1-bedroom suites (70 estimated at this time), 2-bedroom suites (84 estimated at this time), 3-bedroom suites (35 estimated at this time) along with multiple restaurants and retail space, all of which will be operated by Sunseeker Florida, Inc. (“SFI”).  The first year of operations of Phase 1 will be the twelve (12) calendar month period beginning on the first day of the first calendar month after opening day of Phase 1 as determined by the Board (the “Phase 1 Measurement Period”).

		
	(ii)
	Subsequent Phases of the Project will consist of such improvements to the Project on the Sunseeker Property as determined by the Board.  The first year of operations of a Subsequent Phase will be the twelve (12) calendar month period beginning on the first day of the first calendar month after opening day of such Subsequent Phase as determined by the Board (the “Subsequent Phase Measurement Period”).  

		
	(iii)
	The amount of the Sunseeker Bonus payable on completion of the first year of operations of Phase 1 shall be equal to ten percent (10%) of the difference between (x) the EBITDA (as hereinafter defined) for Phase 1 operations for such year multiplied by 13; minus (y) the total cost of Phase 1 (which will be the total Project Cost for the Project as contemplated under the TSSP construction loan agreement and which is currently estimated to be $470.0 million) with the result reduced by $6,500,000 (the “Bonus Credit”).

		
	(iv)
	The amount of the Sunseeker Bonus payable on completion of the first year of operations of a Subsequent Phase shall be equal to ten percent (10%) of the difference between (x) the EBITDA (as hereinafter defined) for the total Project for such year multiplied by 13; minus (y) the total cost of the entire Project through the completion of such Phase; ; provided, however, that the amount of bonus payable after completion of any Subsequent Phase Measurement Period shall be reduced by (A) the Bonus Credit and (B) the amount of any 

Sunseeker Bonus paid to Executive after completion of the Phase 1 Measurement Period or any previous Subsequent Phase Measurement Period.

		
	(v)
	Executive hall be entitled to receive the bonus with respect to the performance of Phase 1 or a Subsequent Phase only: (a) if he is employed by the Company at the end of the Phase 1 Measurement Period or Subsequent Phase Measurement Period (as applicable), (b) if his employment with the Company is terminated during the respective Measurement Period without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason,  (c)  if his employment terminates during the respective Measurement Period as a result of his death or disability, or (d) if the initial term of this Agreement expires without renewal and the Subsequent Phase opens within one (1) year after such expiration.  Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Sunseeker Bonus shall be payable after the expiration of the term of this Agreement as it may be extended.

		
	(vi)
	 As soon as practicable after calculation of the Sunseeker Bonus with respect to the Phase 1 Measurement Period or any Subsequent Phase Measurement Period, the Company shall provide Executive with a copy of each calculation and provide Executive with an opportunity to comment on the calculation.  If a dispute exists between the Company and Executive, the dispute shall be resolved by the Company’s independent registered accounting firm in its sole discretion or through such other alternative dispute resolution process as the parties may agree.

		
	(vii)
	The Sunseeker Bonus with respect to the Phase 1 Measurement Period and with respect to any Subsequent Phase Measurement Period shall be payable within thirty (30) days after its calculation and resolution of disputes with respect thereto.

		
	(viii)
	To the extent a Sunseeker Bonus is payable, the Board, by action of its Compensation Committee, shall determine whether to pay the Sunseeker Bonus in cash, in Company stock or partially in cash and Company stock.  To the extent the Compensation Committee determines to pay the Sunseeker Bonus in cash, Executive shall have the right to require that such portion of the Sunseeker Bonus be paid in Company stock.  For these purposes, the Company stock shall be valued at the closing price for such stock as of the end of the Phase 1 Measurement Period or Subsequent Phase Measurement Period, as applicable.

		
	(ix)
	For purposes of these calculations, EBITDA of the Project shall be calculated consistent with the principles used to calculate EBITDA for purposes of covenant compliance under the Company’s Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated February 5, 2019, with Barclays Bank as agent.

D.No Base Compensation.  The equity grants described above are intended to be the sole base compensation payable to Executive under this Agreement.  As such, Executive shall not be entitled to any base salary.

E.No Participation in Annual Cash Bonus Plan.  The equity grants described herein are intended to be the sole compensation payable to Executive under this Agreement.  As such, Executive shall not be entitled to participation in the Company’s annual cash bonus plan.  However, Executive may be granted a discretionary cash bonus for extraordinary performance in such amount as may be determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

F.Participation in Future Equity Grants.  In the event of extraordinary performance, the Board may, in its sole discretion, choose to provide an equity grant to Executive in such amount as the Board may determine. To the extent not applied to the Sunseeker Bonus, the Bonus Credit may be applied against the value of any equity grants or discretionary cash bonuses awarded to Executive in 2022 or after.

G.Fringe Benefits. The Company shall provide Executive health and dental insurance for Executive and his spouse (if married) at the Company’s cost and such vacation time, sick leave and other fringe benefits, including but not limited to participation in any pension, 401(k) and employee benefit plans that may be maintained by the Company from time to time as are made generally available to other management employees of the Company in accordance with Company policies.  The Company reserves the right to change the benefits available under its benefit plans at any time or times.

H.Positive Space Travel.  Executive shall be entitled to passes for air travel on the flights of the Company (and any successor-in-interest to the Company) for Executive and his spouse on a positive space basis at no cost to Executive.  

I.Expense Reimbursement.  In addition, the Company shall reimburse Executive for any expenses incurred by Executive in connection with the business of the Company, as approved by the Company.  These expenses may include expenses for travel, business promotion, association memberships, and any other expenses as may be approved by the CEO or Board from time to time.  The Company shall reimburse Executive for such out-of-pocket expenses by the tenth (10th) day of the month following the month in which such expenses were incurred (and appropriate documentation thereof has been provided to the Company).   The Company may issue to Executive a company credit card.  In such event, Executive 

agrees to use such card only for the expenses reimbursable under this paragraph.  Executive agrees to keep the card securely.  In the event of loss or theft, the issuing authority and the Company shall be informed immediately.  The card shall be returned to the Company forthwith on the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason whatsoever.

J.Payroll Taxes.  Executive shall bear full responsibility for the employee portion of all payroll taxes.  Such amounts may be paid, at Executive’s request, by the cancellation of such number of shares of Restricted Stock or shares issued in fulfillment or all or a portion of the Sunseeker Bonus upon vesting as may be necessary to fund the payroll tax obligation based on a value equal to the closing stock price of the Company’s stock on the last trading day prior to the date of vesting.

K.Deductions.  If any cash compensation is paid to Executive hereunder, then deductions shall be made from Executive’s salary for social security, Medicare, federal and state withholding taxes, and any other such taxes as may from time to time be required by governmental authority.  

L.The compensation provided for Executive hereunder is inclusive of any fees received by Executive as an officer of the Company or any other company or corporate body in which Executive holds an office as a nominee or representative of the Company.  Any such amounts received by Executive shall be paid over to the Company.

M.Clawback Agreement.  In accordance with the Company’s clawback policy, Executive hereby agrees to reimburse the Company for all or any portion of any bonuses or incentive or equity-based compensation if the Compensation Committee in good faith determines: (a) the payment or grant was based on the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a material financial restatement (other than as a result of a change in accounting principles) and a lower payment or award would have occurred based upon the restated financial results; or (b) the Executive engaged in fraud or intentional misconduct related to the Company or its business. In each such instance, the Company will, to the extent practicable and allowable under applicable law, require reimbursement of any bonus or incentive or equity based compensation awarded or effect the cancellation of any unvested or deferred stock awards previously granted to the Executive in the amount by which the Executive’s bonus or incentive or equity based compensation for the relevant period exceeded the lower payment that would have been made based on the restated financial results, or such other amount as determined by the Compensation Committee, provided that the Company will not be entitled to recover bonuses or incentive or equity based compensation paid more than three years prior to the date the applicable restatement is disclosed. 

N.Lock-Up.  Executive agrees that he will not sell, pledge, margin or otherwise transfer any shares he receives as compensation under this Agreement, whether or not vested, on or before September 30, 2022.  This lock-up restriction shall expire earlier if: (i) there is a change in control (as defined in the Company’s 2016 Long-term Incentive Plan), or (ii) Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of a termination by the Company without Cause, a resignation by Executive with Good Reason or as a result of Executive’s death or disability.  This lock-up shall not preclude the withholding of shares for tax withholding purposes upon the vesting of shares granted hereunder.

5.Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall commence as of October 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue until September 30, 2022.  The Company upon written notice to Executive at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial term may renew the term of this Agreement for an additional two (2) years. If the Company seeks to renew this Agreement for an additional two (2) year and Executive does not object to the renewal, then the following compensation provisions shall apply during the renewal term:

A.Equity Grants.  As of October 1, 2022, Executive shall be granted 50,000 additional shares of Restricted Stock (the “Renewal Restricted Stock”) under the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

B.Renewal Restricted Stock.  The Renewal Restricted Stock will be subject to the terms of a Restricted Stock Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Executive to evidence this grant.  The Renewal Restricted Stock will vest as follows: (i) one-half (1/2) or 25,000 shares on October 1, 2023; and (ii) the remaining one-half (1/2) or 25,000 shares in two (2) equal semi-annual installments (12,500 shares each) on April 1, 2024 and October 1, 2024.  Unvested Renewal Restricted Stock will be subject to accelerated pro-rata vesting to the extent provided in this Agreement.  Executive shall be entitled to vote all vested and unvested shares of Renewal Restricted Stock and to receive all dividends paid thereon, until and unless such time as such shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited in accordance with the terms of the Renewal Restricted Stock Agreement evidencing such grant.

C.Sunseeker Bonus.  The Sunseeker Bonus specified in Item 4C shall be payable if, when and to the extent earned as provided in Item 4C.

D.The provisions of Item 4D-4M shall continue to apply during the renewal term.

6.Termination:

A.This Agreement shall be terminated upon Executive’s death or upon a physician certified disability which permanently or indefinitely renders Executive unable to perform his usual duties on behalf of the Company.  In the event of a termination for death or disability, all outstanding stock options, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights held by Executive at the time shall become vested on a pro rata basis through the end of the last calendar month ending on or before the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined).  By way of example, if 14,500 shares of Restricted Stock are to vest on March 30, 2022 and the Termination Date is January 30, 2022 (four months after the last vesting date), then four-sixths or 9,667 of the shares of Restricted Stock to have vested on March 30, 2022, shall become vested on the January 30, 2022 Termination Date.

B.Executive may, without “Good Reason” (as defined in paragraph D below), terminate this Agreement by giving to the Company ninety (90) days prior written notice and such termination shall be effective on the date specified by Executive but in no event earlier than the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of such notice.  In such event, Executive shall continue to render his services up to the Termination Date if so requested by the Company.  In the event of such a resignation without Good Reason, all then unvested stock options, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights held by Executive shall be immediately forfeited.  

C.The Company may, without “Cause” (as defined in paragraph E below), terminate this Agreement at any time by giving to Executive written notice and such termination shall be effective on the date specified by the Company.  At the option of the Company, Executive shall immediately cease performing his duties hereunder upon receipt of the notice.    If terminated without Cause pursuant to this paragraph C, Executive shall be entitled to continue to participate in the Company’s fringe benefits for six (6) months following Executive’s termination and all outstanding stock options, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights held by Executive at the time shall become vested on a pro rata basis through the end of the last calendar month ending on or before the Termination Date.  
  

D.Executive may terminate this Agreement immediately for “Good Reason”.  For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall be defined as (i) failure of the Company to make any payment or provide any benefit to Executive  hereunder, which failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of written notice of such default, or (ii) a material diminution of Executive’s duties and responsibilities or his title without Executive’s consent; (iii) the imposition of a requirement on Executive  to report to a new CEO or to another officer unless approved by Executive, or (iv) the principal location at which Executive  is to perform his duties is relocated to a place more than fifty (50) miles from Las Vegas, Nevada.  Any termination under this paragraph D shall take effect immediately upon the Company’s receipt of written notice from Executive after the expiration of any applicable cure period.  If Executive terminates this Agreement for “Good Reason” pursuant to this paragraph D, Executive shall be entitled to continue to participate in the Company’s fringe benefits for six (6) months following Executive’s termination and all outstanding stock options, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights held by Executive at the time shall become vested on a pro a pro rata basis through the end of the last calendar month ending on or before the Termination Date.  

E.The Company may terminate this Agreement immediately for “Cause”.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall be defined as any of the following:  (i) Executive  shall commit a felony or other act involving moral turpitude, which other act is materially detrimental to the Company; (ii) Executive  shall knowingly commit any act of prohibited conduct as set forth in Item 3 of this Agreement; (iii) Executive shall commit any act, specifically including but not limited to drug or alcohol abuse, which act is materially harmful to the Company, or which in the reasonable opinion of the Company’s Board brings the Company into disrepute; (iv) Executive  shall commit any act of fraud, dishonesty, theft or misappropriation, whether or not related to his activities on behalf of the Company, including providing false reports or accounts to the Company or deliberately making false statements about the Company, its services, employees, customers or suppliers; (v) intentional or repeated material neglect of Executive’s duties; (vi) breach by Executive  of any other material provision of this Agreement; (vii) Executive shall become the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise make an arrangement or composition with creditors generally; (viii) Executive shall engage in anti-social behavior (such as fighting, indecency, harassment, sexual or racial harassment or discrimination, intimidation of others, physical violence or assault) during the course of performing duties for the Company or against another employee outside of work; (ix) Executive shall have possession of illegal drugs at the Company’s workplace; or (x) Executive  shall perform duties in a negligent or dangerous manner which causes or is likely to cause material loss or injury.  This Agreement may not be terminated by the Company under subclause (v), (vi) or (x) of this Item unless and until the Company has provided Executive with written notice of such violative conduct and Executive  has failed to cure (or fails to commence and thereafter diligently pursue the cure) such act within thirty (30) days after Executive’s receipt of such written notice; provided, however, that no right to cure shall be available for a second or subsequent violation of the same provision within any twelve (12) month period.  Any termination under this paragraph E shall take effect immediately upon Executive’s receipt of written notice from the Company or expiration of any applicable cure period, whichever is later.  The failure of the Company to terminate this Agreement for cause as a result of any of the foregoing at any one or more times shall not affect the Company’s ability to terminate this Agreement for cause as a result of the subsequent occurrence of any act giving rise to “cause” hereunder, provided that Executive is still provided with a notice to cure if applicable in accordance with the above.  In the event of such a termination for Cause, all then unvested stock options, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights held by Executive shall be immediately forfeited.

F.Upon termination, Executive shall have no obligation to provide any additional services, and except as expressly provided above, the Company shall only be obligated pay to Executive the portion of any amounts due as of the termination date, together with all unreimbursed out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive.

G.Termination of Executive’s Obligations.  Executive’s obligations under Items 7 and 8 of this Agreement shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement without renewal and termination of Executive’s employment as provided in such Item.

H.Resignation of Positions upon Termination.  On the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, Executive shall at the request of the Company immediately resign (without prejudice to any claims which Executive may have against the Company arising out of this Agreement or the termination thereof) from all and any offices which Executive  may hold as an officer or member of the Board of the Company and from all other appointments or offices which Executive  holds as a nominee or representative of the Company and if Executive  should fail to do so, the Company is hereby irrevocably authorized to appoint another person in Executive’s name and on Executive’s behalf to sign any documents or do anything necessary or requisite to effect such resignation(s) and/or transfers.

20.Attorney’s Fees.  In the event an action is taken by either party to enforce this Agreement or resolve a dispute in connection herewith, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover the costs incurred with the prosecution and defense of such action, including reasonable attorney’s fees.

21.Miscellaneous.  This Agreement shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of Nevada other than its conflicts of laws principles.  This Agreement contains the complete understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations relating to the same subject matter, specifically including but not limited to that certain Employment Agreement dated as of September 9, 2016, which is hereby superseded in its entirety.  This Agreement may only be modified by a written instrument signed by each of the parties hereto.  No provisions of this Agreement will be interpreted in favor of, or against, any of the parties hereto by reason of the extent to which any such party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof.  Failure to require strict compliance with any term or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of a party’s right to insist upon strict compliance with each and every provision of this Agreement.  No waiver of any terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of that or any other term of condition.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and same instrument.  The provisions of Item 3 (the last paragraph), 4C, 4M, 4N, 6H, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 14 through 21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company.  This Agreement may be executed by any party by delivery of a facsimile or pdf signature, which signature shall have the same force as an original signature.  Any party which delivers a facsimile or pdf signature shall promptly thereafter deliver an originally executed signature to the other party; provided, however, that the failure to deliver an original signature page shall not affect the validity of any signature delivered by facsimile or pdf. The paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not be deemed to impart substantive meeting to any provision of this Agreement.  Each party has had the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its choice in negotiating this Agreement.  This Agreement shall therefore be deemed to have been negotiated and prepared at the joint request and direction of the parties, at arm’s length, with the advice and participation of counsel, and shall be interpreted in accordance with its terms and without favor to any party.

    

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been signed, sealed and delivered as of the date and year first above written.
