8. OPTIONS AND NOTICE.
a. Lessor grants Lessee the following option(s):
(i) Purchase Option: At the expiration of the Term (initial or renewed,
if applicable), Lessee may purchase all but not less than all of the Equipment
described in the Lease Schedule for the fair market value in use of the
Equipment as of the date of expiration of the Term ("Exercise Price") as
determined by an independent appraiser mutually selected by Lessor and Lessee
(the "Purchase Option"); provided, however, that if Lessee has replaced any Unit
within the twelve (12) month period prior to the exercise of the Purchase
Option, the Exercise Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the excess of
the book value of the replacement Unit over the book value of the replaced Unit
(determined as if such Unit had not been replaced and was still in use as of the
date of calculation).
(ii) Upgrade Option: Upgrade Option: Lessee may upgrade the Equipment
beginning at the end of the first six (6) month period of the Term and at the
end of each six month (6) period of the Term thereafter based upon the following
conditions: (i) Lessee shall have the right to replace or upgrade up to an
aggregate amount of 40% of the units of the Equipment during the Term (the
"Upgrade Option") with new or used slot machines acceptable to Lessor (the
"Replacement Equipment"); (ii) Lessee shall obtain the Replacement Equipment
exclusively through Lessor on a unit for unit trade out basis at the normal and
customary margin of 30% on used equipment or the manufacturer's retail list
price for new equipment; (iii) Lessee must notify Lessor that it intends to
exercise its rights pursuant to the Upgrade Option and to notify Lessor of the
percentage of the units of Equipment Lessee desires to replace with Replacement
Equipment at least thirty days prior the end of each six month (6) period ; (iv)
Lessee may only exercise one Upgrade Option during any six (6) month period and
for no more than 10% of the units at any one time; (v) Lessee is not in default
(see Section 19 of the Master Lease Agreement) under the Lease; (vi) there are
no material adverse changes to Lessee's condition (financial, business or
otherwise); (vii) Lessee agrees to lease the Replacement Equipment from Lessor
under a new Equipment lease schedule reflecting terms and rental factors
consistent with terms generally available from Lessor at that time; (viii)
Lessee agrees to have all of the Replacement Equipment in service within thirty
(30) days following the end of each six (6) month period for which an Upgrade
Option is exercised; and (ix) Lessee delivers the returned Equipment to Lessor
in like similar condition as originally leased, normal wear and tear excepted.
Upon receipt of the returned Equipment and execution of the appropriate
documents, including, but not limited to, the new Equipment lease schedule for
the Replacement Equipment for a term of thirty-six (36) months, evidencing the
obligation of the Lessee to lease the Replacement Equipment, Lessor shall amend
this Lease Schedule to reflect the exercise of the Upgrade Option, credit Lessee
with the then retail value of the units of Equipment returned to Lessor, with
the retail value being determined using two equipment quotes (one obtained by
Lessee and one obtained by Lessor) and the quotes will be based upon the value
of the same or similar equipment of the same age and character being used in the
state of Florida, if any, and if none, then being used in the state of Nevada,
and reduce the Basic Rent due under this Lease Schedule to reflect the credit
for the returned equipment.
(iii) Renewal Option: At the expiration of the Term, if Lessee is not in
default of the Lease or this Lease Schedule and has not had a materially adverse
change in its financial condition since the Commencement Date, Lessee may renew
the Lease Term for a period of four (4) to twelve (12) months ("Renewal Term")
at the then fair market rental as determined by Lessor in its sole discretion,
based upon the Exercise Price and a rate mutually acceptable to Lessor and
Lessee (the "Renewal Option").
(iv) Option to Return Equipment: At the expiration of the Term (initial
and/or renewed, if applicable), Lessee may return the Equipment to Lessor at
Lessor's warehouse facility in Las Vegas, Nevada, or such other facility in the
United States of America designated by Lessor, according to the terms of the
Lease.
b. Unless otherwise specified above, Lessee must give written notice of the
exercise of any option 120 days prior to the expiration of a term. If written
notice of exercise of any Purchase Option or Renewal Option is not received
within a notification period as specified herein, the applicable term shall be
automatically renewed for an additional 120 days at the most recent Basic Rent
as set forth under the Lease Schedule (the "Automatic Renewal Term"). Upon
timely receipt of such notice of exercise, receipt of the payment of all Rent
due under the Lease and payment of the Exercise Price, Lessor will, with
exercise of the Purchase Option, execute and deliver to Lessee a Xxxx of Sale
for the Equipment described in the Lease Schedule. Upon failure of the Lessor to
so deliver a Xxxx of Sale, this Option shall then constitute a conveyance of the
Equipment in accordance herewith and Lessee is hereby appointed attorney-in-fact
of Lessor to execute and deliver all instruments necessary to convey title to
Lessee in accordance herewith, which power of attorney is coupled with an
interest and irrevocable. Payment in full of the Exercise Price shall be due and
payable on or before the expiration of
2
the Term, Renewal Term or Automatic Renewal Term. At the expiration of the Term,
Renewal Term or Automatic Renewal Term, Lessee may, upon at least 120 days
advance written notice, notify Lessor of its decision to terminate the Lease
Schedule and thereupon Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, return the Equipment
to Lessor at a facility designated by Lessor, according to the terms of the
Lease. Lessee shall in all respects remain obligated under the Lease for payment
of Rent, care, maintenance, delivery, use and insurance of the Equipment until
Lessor inspects and accepts the Equipment, which inspection and acceptance shall
be undertaken promptly and in good faith. In the event it shall at any time be
determined that by reason of the options hereby given or otherwise that the
lease of the Equipment to which the Purchase Option or the Renewal Option
applies was in fact a sale to the Lessee of the Equipment, the Lessee agrees
that neither it nor its successors or assigns has or will have any claim or
cause of action against Lessor, its successors or assigns, for any reason for
loss sustained by virtue of such determination.
c. All pre-owned gaming devices supplied herein by Lessor, which are
subject to this Lease Schedule, if any, are leased in a functional condition.
Lessor warrants that pre-owned gaming devices will be mechanically sound and in
good working order for a period of thirty (30) days following the physical
delivery and installation. Lessee's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of
defect of a pre-owned gaming device is expressly limited to the restoration of
the device to good working condition by adjustment, repair or replacement of
defective parts, at Lessee's election. There are no other warranties, express or
implied, including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability or fitness
for a particular purpose. No affirmation of fact, including, but not limited to,
statements regarding suitability for use or performance of such Equipment shall
be deemed to be a warranty of Lessor for any purpose. The Lessee will bear the
cost of returning any defective pre-owned gaming devices to Lessor, including
shipping and reasonable packaging. Lessor will bear the cost of returning the
repaired or replacement device to the Lessee, including shipping and reasonable
packaging. Repair of damage caused by the Lessee's negligence or intent, or
damage caused by third parties is the responsibility of the Lessee and shall in
no event be the responsibility of Lessor.

statements and/or amendments thereto related to this Lease Schedule or the
Equipment previously filed by Lessor and authorizes Lessor to file any and all
UCC-1 and/or UCC-3 statements and/or amendments thereto related to this Lease
Schedule or the Equipment, without Lessee's authentication, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.

incorporated by reference herein as if set forth fully herein. In the event of
conflict between the provisions of this Lease Schedule and the provisions of the
Lease, the provisions of the Lease shall control.
