Redevelopment Commission Agenda Item
DATE: 08/2/2024
FROM: Joseph Molnar
SUBJECT: First Amendments to Option and
Access Agreement
Which TIF? (circle one) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington
PURPOSE OF REQUEST: Approval of Two Amendments to Option and Access Agreements
Specifics: On May 11, 2023, the RDC approved a Purchase Agreement with Momentum
Development Group for the former Salvation Army Building on at 510 S Main Street in
Downtown South Bend. Momentum desired to move as quickly as possible to begin work on
redeveloping the building. There were questions remaining about the use and design of any
improvements to the parking lot areas of the site. To help the project proceed quickly,
Momentum and City Staff felt it was appropriate to have separate agreements for the building
and the remaining parking lots. On May 25, 2023, the RDC approved a Real Estate Option
Agreement and a separate Access Agreement with Momentum Development Group on the
remaining lots.
Momentum took ownership of the building on July 21, 2023, and has begun work renovating
the building in line with their commitments in the Purchase Agreement. Momentum
Development Group has requested one-year extensions for both the Option Agreement and the
Access Agreement to continue the design of the lots and other exterior aspects of the project.
There are no other substantive changes to either agreement.
City Staff recommends approval.

SECTION 2. INTERPRETATION, TERMS, AND RECITALS.
2.1 Interpretation.
(a) The terms “herein,” “hereto,” “hereunder,” and all terms of similar import

consideration for the Developer’s commitment to perform and abide by the covenants and
obligations of the Developer contained in this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement.
4.2 The Project.
(a) The Developer will perform all necessary work to complete the
improvements set forth in the Project Plan attached hereto as Exhibit D and the plans and

with the Project Plan attached hereto as Exhibit D.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Developer’s failure to

Commission by and through the Funding Amount subject to the terms of this Agreement.
4.9 Specifications for Local Public Improvements. The Developer will be responsible
for the preparation of all bid specifications related to the Local Public Improvements, and the

Commission will be deducted from the Funding Amount. The Developer will submit all bid
specifications related to the Local Public Improvements to the City of South Bend Engineering
Department (the “Engineering Department”). The Engineering Department may approve or
disapprove said bid specifications for the Project in its sole discretion and may request revisions

respect to the Project reasonably requested by the Commission.
SECTION 5. COMMISSION’S OBLIGATIONS.
5.1 Generally. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Developer’s agreement to

consideration for the Commission’s commitment to perform and abide by the covenants and
obligations of the Commission contained in this Agreement.
5.2 Completion of Local Public Improvements.
(a) The Commission hereby agrees to complete (or cause to be completed) the
Local Public Improvements described in Exhibit E attached hereto on a schedule to be
reasonably determined and agreed to by the Commission and the Developer, as may be
modified due to unforeseen circumstances and delays. In the event that the option
contemplated in the Option Agreement is not exercised by the end of the Option Period (as
defined in the Option Agreement), and the transfer of property contemplated therein does
not occur, Developer will be considered in default of this Agreement without any
requirement of notice or an opportunity to cure such failure.
6
(b) Before any work on the Local Public Improvements will commence, (a) the
Commission will have received satisfactory plans and specifications for the Project and
responded in accordance with Section 4.7 (“Submission of Plans and Specifications for
Project”) of this Agreement, and (b) the Engineering Department will have received
satisfactory bid specifications for the Local Public Improvements and approved the same
in accordance with Section 4.9 (“Specifications for Local Public Improvements”) of this
Agreement.
(c) The Local Public Improvements will be completed in accordance with all
applicable public bidding and contracting laws and will be subject to inspection by the
Engineering Department or its designee.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event the
costs associated with the Local Public Improvements are in excess of the Funding Amount,
Developer, at its sole option, may determine to pay to the Commission the amount of the
excess costs to permit timely completion of the Local Public Improvements by the
Commission, or an agent of the Commission, which amounts shall be applied for such
purpose. If Developer chooses not to pay any such excess costs of the Local Public
Improvements (above the Funding Amount), the Commission may reduce the scope of the
Local Public Improvements to the amount which may be funded with the Funding Amount.
In no event will the Commission be required to spend more than the Funding Amount in
connection with the Local Public Improvements.
5.3 Cooperation. The Commission agrees to endorse and support the Developer’s
efforts to expedite the Project through any required planning, design, permitting, waiver, and
related regulatory processes, provided, however, that the Commission will not be required to
expend any money in connection therewith.
5.4 Public Announcements, Press Releases, and Marketing Materials. The
Commission hereby agrees to coordinate all public announcements and press releases relating to
the Project with the Developer.
SECTION 6. COOPERATION IN THE EVENT OF LEGAL CHALLENGE.
6.1 Cooperation. In the event of any administrative, legal, or equitable action or other
proceeding instituted by any person not a party to this Agreement challenging the validity of any
provision of this Agreement, the Parties shall cooperate in defending such action or proceeding to
settlement or final judgment including all appeals. Each Party shall select its own legal counsel;
however, Developer shall reimburse the Commission for its reasonable attorneys’ fees associated
with the Commission’s defense of this Agreement against a third-party lawsuit. In no event shall
the Commission be required to bear the fees and costs of the Developer’s attorneys. The Parties
agree that if any other provision of this Agreement, or this Agreement as a whole, is invalidated,
rendered null, or set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree to be bound by
the terms of this Section 6.1, which shall survive such invalidation, nullification, or setting aside.
7
SECTION 7. DEFAULT.
7.1 Default. Any failure by either Party to perform any term or provision of this
Agreement, which failure continues uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following written
notice of such failure from the other Party, shall constitute a default under this Agreement. Any
notice given pursuant to the preceding sentence shall specify the nature of the alleged failure and,
where appropriate, the manner in which said failure satisfactorily may be cured. Upon the
occurrence of a default under this Agreement, the non-defaulting Party may (a) terminate this
Agreement, or (b) institute legal proceedings at law or in equity (including any action to compel
specific performance) seeking remedies for such default. If the default is cured within thirty (30)
days after the notice described in this Section 7.1, then no default shall exist and the noticing Party
shall take no further action.
7.2 Reimbursement Obligation. In the event that the Developer fails (a) to complete
the Project by the Mandatory Project Completion Date, or (b) to expend the full amount of the
Private Investment by the Mandatory Project Completion Date, then the Commission shall be
entitled to recover from Developer, as liquidated damages, One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%) of
the portion of the Funding Amount expended by the Commission in furtherance of the Local Public
Improvements (“Liquidated Damages”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the actual
damages to the Commission, the City, and its citizens in the event of a default by Developer would
be difficult or impossible to determine, and the Liquidated Damages set forth above represents the
best estimate of the Parties as to the amount of such damages at the time of execution and delivery
of this Agreement. If the Developer fails to perform and complete the work within the timeframe
fixed for completion, the Liquidated Damages shall be considered not as a penalty, but as agreed
upon monetary damages sustained by the Commission, the City, and citizens of South Bend for
the Commission’s direct investment into the Project, the negative impact upon the Commission’s
ability to develop other projects in South Bend, and expenses of City employees supporting the
Project, including, redevelopment staff, engineering staff, legal department staff, and a
construction manager on site.
7.3 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, none of the Parties shall be deemed to be in default where delays in performance or
failures to perform are due to, and a necessary outcome of, war, insurrection, strikes or other labor
disturbances, walk-outs, riots, floods, earthquakes, fires, casualties, acts of God, acts of terrorism,
restrictions imposed or mandated by governmental entities, enactment of conflicting state or
federal laws or regulations, new or supplemental environments regulations, contract defaults by
third parties, or similar basis for excused performance which is not within the reasonable control
of the Party to be excused (each, an event of “Force Majeure”). Upon the request of any of the
Parties, a reasonable extension of any date or deadline set forth in this Agreement due to such
cause will be granted in writing for a period necessitated by the event of Force Majeure, or longer
as may be mutually agreed upon by all the Parties.
SECTION 8. NO AGENCY, JOINT VENTURE, OR PARTNERSHIP; CONFLICT OF
INTEREST; INDEMNITY.
8.1 No Agency, Joint Venture or Partnership. The Parties acknowledge and agree that:
8
(a) The Project is a private development;
(b) None of the Commission, the Board of Works, or the Developer has any
interest or responsibilities for, or due to, third parties concerning any improvements until
such time, and only until such time, that the Commission, the Board of Works, and/or the
Developer expressly accepts the same; and
(c) The Parties hereby renounce the existence of any form of agency
relationship, joint venture or partnership between the Commission, the Board of Works,
and the Developer and agree that nothing contained herein or in any document executed in
connection herewith shall be construed as creating any such relationship between the
Commission, the Board of Works, and the Developer.
8.2 Conflict of Interest; Commission Representatives Not Individually Liable. No
member, official, or employee of the Commission or the City may have any personal interest,
direct or indirect, in this Agreement, nor shall any such member, official, or employee participate
in any decision relating to this Agreement which affects his or her personal interests or the interests
of any corporation, partnership, or association in which he or she is, directly or indirectly,
interested. No member, official, or employee of the Commission or the City shall be personally
liable to the Developer, or any successor in interest, in the event of any default or breach by the
Commission or for any amount which may become due to the Developer, or its successors and
assigns, or on any obligations under the terms of this Agreement. No partner, member, employee,
or agent of the Developer or successors of them shall be personally liable to the Commission under
this Agreement.
8.3 Indemnity. The Developer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the
Commission and the City from and against any third-party claims suffered by the Commission or
the City resulting from or incurred in connection with the Local Public Improvements or the
Project.
SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS.
9.1 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions
of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by mutual
consent of the parties.
9.2 Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a Party to exercise any
right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise of the same or of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with respect to any occurrence
be construed as a waiver of any such right, remedy, power, or privilege with respect to any other
occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted
to have granted such waiver.
9.3 Other Necessary Acts. Each Party shall execute and deliver to the other Parties all
such other further instruments and documents as may be reasonably necessary to accomplish the
Project and the Local Public Improvements contemplated by this Agreement and to provide and
9
secure to the other Parties the full and complete enjoyment of its rights and privileges hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties understand and agree that certain actions contemplated
by this Agreement may be required to be undertaken by persons, agencies, or entities that are not
a party to this Agreement, including, but not limited to certain permits, consents, and/or approvals
(to the extent they have not yet been obtained and completed), and that any action by such third
parties shall require independent approval by the respective person, agency, entity, or governing
body thereof.
9.4 Dispute Resolution; Waiver of Jury Trial. Any action to enforce the terms or
conditions of this Agreement or otherwise concerning a dispute under this Agreement will be
commenced in the courts of St. Joseph County, Indiana, unless the Parties mutually agree to an
alternative method of dispute resolution. The Parties acknowledge that disputes arising under this
Agreement are likely to be complex and they desire to streamline and minimize the cost of
resolving such disputes. In any legal proceeding, each Party irrevocably waives the right to trial
by jury in any action, counterclaim, dispute, or proceeding based upon, or related to, the subject
matter of this Agreement. This waiver applies to all claims against all parties to such actions and
proceedings. This waiver is knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily made by both Parties.
9.5 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event the Commission pursues any legal action (including
arbitration) to enforce or interpret this Agreement, Developer shall pay Commission’s reasonable
attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses (including expert witness fees).
9.6 Equal Employment Opportunity. The Developer, for itself and its successors and
assigns, agrees that during the construction of the Project:
(a) The Developer will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for
employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The Developer agrees
to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment,
notices setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause; and
(b) The Developer will state, in all solicitations or advertisements for
employees placed by or on behalf of the Developer, that all qualified applicants will receive
consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument. Any electronically transmitted version of a manually executed original shall be
deemed a manually executed original.
9.8 Notices and Demands. Any notice, demand, or other communication required or
permitted under the terms of this Agreement may be delivered (a) by hand-delivery (which will be
deemed delivered at the time of receipt), (b) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested
(which will be deemed delivered three (3) days after mailing), or (c) by overnight courier service
(which will be deemed delivered on the next business day) to each Party’s respective addresses
and representatives stated below.

Purpose of Request:
Budget request of $25,000 out of River West Development Area TIF for American Structurepoint
to perform structural engineering services on an on-call basis. This would be for any existing
buildings owned by the City that have the potential to be sold and redeveloped that need to be
evaluated for structural integrity to determine any necessary repairs prior to development. The
current need is for a structural evaluation of the City Center Place building prior to finalizing the
sale, which will use around $7k of this request. Additional funds are being requested to support
future needs that may come up.

SUBJECT: Budget Request – Drewry’s Brewery Cleanup
Funding Source* (circle one) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington; RDC General
*Funds are subject to the City Controller's determination of availability; if funds are unavailable, as solely determined by the City Controller,
then the authorization of the expenditure of such funds shall be void and of no effect.
Purpose of Request:
This budget request is for $1,000,000 to pay for demolition costs for the next phase (Phase II) of
the Drewry’s Brewery Cleanup, covering the Bottling House, the loading dock, and the siloes.
Phase I, funded with ARP funding, demolished several outbuildings and removed the remaining
construction debris leftover from previous demolitions prior to City acquisition of the property.
On July 23, 2024, the Board of Public Works (BPW) opened and read aloud bids for Phase II of
the Drewry’s Brewery cleanup. Seven (7) bids were received, with the lowest responsive bid from
Green Demolition at a price of $963,600. With this budget request, a bid award can be made at
the August 13th BPW meeting, with work beginning shortly after Labor Day.
This allocation would be combined with $250,000 in ARP funding for a total demolition budget of
$1,250,000, which would cover any unforeseen conditions that arise during the demolition of
the Bottling House and loading dock, which totals over 100,000 square feet in area.
Any funds left over from Phase II would be rolled over for use on Phase III, which intends to
remove all remaining slabs and foundations, and prepare a shovel-ready site for redevelopment.

All the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be effective and binding upon the
Parties and their successors and assigns at the time the Agreement is fully signed by
Commission and MUSUEM (the “Effective Date”).
2. COMMISSION’S DUE DILIGENCE
A. Investigation. MUSUEM acknowledges that the Commission’s
determination to accept the Property requires a process of investigation (Commission’s
“Due Diligence”) into various matters. Therefore, the Commission’s obligation to accept
the transfer of the Property is conditioned upon the satisfactory completion, in the
Commission’s discretion, of the Commission’s Due Diligence, including, without
limitation, the Commission’s examination, at the Commission’s sole expense, of zoning
and land use matters, environmental matters, real property title matters, and the like, as
applicable.
B. Authorizations During Due Diligence Period. MUSUEM authorizes the
Commission, as of the Effective Date and continuing until the end of the Due Diligence
Period (as defined below), to enter upon the Property or to cause agents to enter upon the
Property for purposes of examination; provided, however, that the Commission may not
take any action upon the Property which reduces the value thereof; and further provided
that the Commission shall promptly restore the Property to its condition prior to entry, and
agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold MUSUEM harmless, before and after the Closing
Date, whether or not a closing occurs, and regardless of any cancellations or termination
of this Agreement, from any liability to any third party, loss or expense incurred by
MUSUEM, including without limitation, reasonable attorney fees and costs arising from
acts or omissions of the Commission or the Commission’s agents or representatives.
C. Due Diligence Period. The Commission shall have a period of sixty (60)
days following the Effective Date to complete its examination of the Property in
accordance with this Section 3 (the “Due Diligence Period”).
D. Termination of Agreement. If at any time within the Due Diligence Period,
the Commission determines, in its sole discretion, not to proceed with the transfer of the
Property, the Commission may terminate this Agreement by written notice to MUSUEM
3
and with no liability to the Commission, except as set forth herein. However, if such event
occurs, the Commission and MUSUEM shall still be bound by the terms set forth in the
Lease Agreement.
3. PRESERVATION OF TITLE AND CONDITION
A. After the date MUSUEM executes this Agreement and receives a counter-
signed copy of this Agreement from the Commission as described in Section 1, MUSUEM
shall not take any action or allow any action to be taken by others to cause the Property to
become subject to any new interests, liens, restrictions, easements, covenants, reservations
or other matters affecting MUSUEM’s title (such matters are referred to as
“Encumbrances”).
B. MUSUEM hereby covenants that MUSUEM will not alter the condition of
the Property at any time after the date MUSUEM receives a counter-signed copy of this
Agreement from the Commission as described in Section 1. Further, MUSUEM will not
release or cause to be released any hazardous substances on or near the Property and will
not otherwise collect or store hazardous substances or other materials, goods, refuse or
debris at the Property in violation of applicable laws.
4. TITLE COMMITMENT AND SURVEY
The Commission shall obtain the Title Commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance
issued by a title company selected by the Commission and reasonably acceptable to
MUSUEM (the “Title Company”) within twenty (20) days after the Effective Date. The
Commission, at its option, may obtain a survey of the Property, at its sole expense. The
Property shall be conveyed to the Commission free of all encumbrances, including but not
limited to mortgages, judgments, and taxes, unless otherwise waived in writing by the
Commission. The Title Commitment will be issued by a title company selected by the
Commission and reasonably acceptable to MUSUEM (the “Title Company”). The Title
Commitment shall:
(1) Agree to insure good, marketable and indefeasible fee simple title to the
Property in the name of the Commission for the amount of Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000.00) upon delivery and recordation of a special warranty deed from MUSUEM to
the Commission.
(2) Provide for issuance of a final ALTA owner’s title insurance policy, with
any endorsements requested by the Commission, subject only to any encumbrances waived
by the Commission.
Regardless of whether this transaction closes, the Commission shall be responsible for the
title search charges, the cost of the Title Commitment and owner’s policy as well as any
endorsements thereto. Within thirty (30) days after the Commission’s receipt of the Title
Commitment, the Commission shall give MUSUEM written notice of any objections to the
Title Commitment. Within thirty (30) days after the Commission’s receipt of the Survey,
the Commission shall give MUSUEM written notice of any objections to the Survey. Any
4
exceptions identified in the Title Commitment or Survey to which written notice of
objection is not given within such period shall be a “Permitted Encumbrance.” If
MUSUEM is unable or unwilling to correct the Commission’s title and survey objections
within the Due Diligence Period, the Commission may terminate this Agreement by written
notice to MUSUEM prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period. If the Commission
fails to so terminate this Agreement, then such objections shall constitute “Permitted
Encumbrances” as of the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, and the Commission shall
acquire the Property without any effect being given to such title and survey objections.
5. MUSUEM’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The undersigned MUSUEM Representative represents and warrants to the Commission
that MUSUEM is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of
the State of Indiana and that MUSUEM owns in fee simple title to the Property and has not
granted any option or right of first refusal to any person or entity to acquire the Property or
any interest therein. The undersigned MUSUEM Representative further represents and
warrants it is fully empowered to donate the Property to the Commission under the terms
and conditions stated in this Agreement, and that it has disclosed to the Commission any
notifications from any local, state, or federal authority regarding environmental matters
pertaining to the Property. MUSUEM shall provide the Commission a copy of all known
environmental inspection reports, engineering, title, and survey reports and documents in
MUSUEM’s possession relating to the Property. In the event the Closing does not occur,
the Commission will immediately return all such reports and documents to MUSUEM’s
Representative.
6. CLOSING
A. Timing of Closing. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated, the transfer
of title contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall be held at the office of the
Title Company on a mutually agreeable date not later than thirty (30) days after the end of
the Due Diligence Period.
B. Closing Procedure.
(1) At Closing, MUSUEM shall deliver the special warranty deed,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, conveying the Property to the
Commission, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and the Title Company’s delivery
of the Title Commitment to the Commission in accordance with Section 5 above.
(2) The possession of the Property shall be delivered to the Commission
at Closing, in substantially the same condition as it exists on the Effective Date, ordinary
wear and tear and casualty excepted.
C. Closing Costs. The Commission shall pay the Title Company’s closing fee
and all recordation costs associated with the transaction contemplated in this Agreement.
5
D. Personal Property. Any personal property remaining at the Property after
Closing will be deemed to be abandoned by MUSUEM, and the Commission, in its sole
discretion, may choose to exercise possession of and control over any such personal
property.
E. MUSUEM’s Due Diligence. MUSUEM acknowledges that MUSUEM has
conducted its own due diligence and waives any right that MUSUEM may have to an
appraisal or to contest or challenge the donation conveyed under this Agreement.
7. ACCEPTANCE OF PROPERTY “AS-IS”
Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Commission agrees the Property will be conveyed
“as-is, where-is” and without any representations or warranties by MUSUEM as to the
condition of the Property or its fitness for any particular use or purpose. MUSUEM offers
no such representation or warranty as to condition or fitness, and nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed to constitute such a representation or warranty as to condition or fitness.
8. TAXES
MUSUEM shall be responsible for all taxes related to the Property accruing through the
Closing Date, if any, even if such taxes are not yet due and payable. The Commission, or
the Commission’s successors and assigns, shall be liable for all real property taxes accruing
against the Property after the Closing Date, if any.
9. COMMISSIONS
The Parties acknowledge that neither the Commission nor MUSUEM are represented by
any broker in connection with the transaction contemplated in this Agreement. The
Commission and MUSUEM agree to indemnify and hold one another harmless from any
claim for commissions in connection with the transaction contemplated in this Agreement.
10. INTERPRETATION; APPLICABLE LAW; JURISDICTION
Both Parties having participated fully and equally in the negotiation and preparation of this
Agreement, this Agreement shall not be more strictly construed, nor shall any ambiguities
be presumptively resolved, against either Party. This Agreement shall be interpreted and
enforced according to the laws of the State of Indiana. Any action to enforce the terms or
conditions of this Agreement or otherwise concerning a dispute under this Agreement will
be commenced in the courts of St. Joseph County, Indiana.
11. NOTICES
All notices required or allowed by this Agreement, before or after Closing, shall be
delivered in person or by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
addressed to MUSUEM in care of MUSUEM’s Representative, or to the Commission in
care of the Commission’s Representative (with a copy to South Bend Legal Department,

6
Corporation Counsel) at the respective addresses stated in Section 1 above. Either Party
may, by written notice, modify the address for future notices to such Party.
12. REMEDIES
Upon any default in or breach of this Agreement by either Party, the defaulting Party will
proceed immediately to cure or remedy such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of
written notice of such default or breach from the non-defaulting Party, or, if the nature of
the default or breach is such that it cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, the defaulting
Party will diligently pursue and prosecute to completion an appropriate cure within a
reasonable time. In the event of a default or breach that remains uncured for longer than
the period stated in the foregoing sentence, the non-defaulting Party may terminate this
Agreement, commence legal proceedings, including an action for specific performance, or
pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity. All the Parties’ respective rights
and remedies concerning this Agreement and the Property are cumulative.
13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
Any action to enforce the terms or conditions of this Agreement or otherwise concerning a
dispute under this Agreement will be commenced in the courts of St. Joseph County,
Indiana, unless the Parties mutually agree to an alternative method of dispute resolution.
The Parties acknowledge that disputes arising under this Agreement are likely complex
and they desire to streamline and minimize the cost of resolving such disputes. In any legal
proceeding, each Party irrevocably waives the right to trial by jury in any action,
counterclaim, dispute, or proceeding based upon, or related to, the subject matter of this
Agreement. This waiver applies to all claims against all parties to such actions and
proceedings. This waiver is knowingly, intentionally, and voluntarily made by both
Parties.
14. INDEMNITY
The Parties agree to reimburse each other for any and all liabilities, claims, penalties,
forfeitures, suits, and the costs and expenses incident thereto (including costs of defense
and settlement), which either party may subsequently incur, become responsible for, or pay
out as a result of a breach by the other party in default of this Agreement. In the event of
legal action initiated by a third party as a result of a breach of this Agreement, the breaching
party shall assume the defense of the non-breaching party, including all costs associated
therewith.
15. WAIVER
Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a Party to exercise any right, remedy, power,
or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise of the same or of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with respect to any
occurrence be construed as a waiver of any such right, remedy, power, or privilege with
7
respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is
signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.
16. SEVERABILITY
If any term or provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by mutual consent of
the Parties.
17. FURTHER ASSURANCES
The Parties agree that they will each undertake in good faith, as permitted by law, any
action and execute and deliver any document reasonably required to carry out the intents
and purposes of this Agreement.

and supersedes all prior discussions, understandings, or agreements between MUSUEM
and the Commission concerning the transaction contemplated in this Agreement, whether
