AND SERVICE AMERICA CORPORATION D/B/A CENTERPLATE FOR CATERING
CONCESSIONS AT THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH CONVENTION CENTER
This Amendment No. 1 is made effective as of July 1, 2016 ("Effective Date"), by and
between the CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, a municipal corporation having its
principal office at 1700 Convention Center Drive, Miami Beach, Florida, 33139 ("City"),
and Service America Corporation d/b/a CENTERPLATE, a Delaware corporation whose

BACKGROUND
The City is the owner of the Miami Beach Convention Center (the "Convention
Center" or "Facility") located in the City of Miami Beach, Florida.
On June 5, 2013, the City adopted Resolution No. 2013-28241, accepting the
proposal submitted by Centerplate pursuant to the ITN, and the parties thereby executed
the Agreement as of June 5, 2013.
The initial term of the Agreement expires on June 30, 2016.
The Agreement provides the parties with the ability to exercise a renewal option for two
successive one year periods, through June 30, 2018. In view of the City's construction of
the Miami Beach Renovation and Expansion Project, and the Convention Center's
Construction Period Booking Policy, which will result in a significant reduction in
operations at the Facility, the City desires to grant Concessionaire an additional
extension of the term, through September 30, 2020, and to modify certain other terms
and conditions of the Agreement, as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises, covenants and
agreements herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties intending to be legally
bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. The aforesaid recitals are true and correct and incorporated by reference
herein.
2. Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, all capitalized terms shall have
the respective meanings ascribed in the Agreement.
3. The renewal term of this Agreement ("Renewal Term") shall commence on
July 1, 2016 and shall expire at midnight on September 30, 2020 ("Termination Date"),
unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
4. It is anticipated that substantial areas of the Facility will close for
renovations during the Renewal Term. The complete Facility "Re-Opening Date" shall
occur on the date that a TCO is obtained for the Facility Halls A, B, C and D and the new
North Ballroom, or on the date that the Facility Halls A, B, C and D and the new North
Ballroom are otherwise substantially completed such that events open to the general
public may take place therein. The City currently anticipates that the Re-Opening Date
shall occur on or about October 1, 2018. If the actual Re-Opening Date occurs after
October 8, 2018, the Renewal Term shall be extended on a monthly basis for every
month that the Re-Opening Date is delayed. For purposes of illustration only, if the Re-
Opening Date is October 8, 2018, the Termination Date shall remain September 30,
2020; if the Re-Opening Date is October 9, 2018, the Termination Date shall be October
30, 2020; if the Re-opening Date is November 1, 2018, the Termination Date shall be
November 30, 2020.
5. Section 4.2 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

Additional Investment ($100,000.00) within fifteen (15) days after the parties agree
to such items, and shall invest the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of the
Additional Investment, ($300,000.00) on mutually-agreed Additional Investment

amortized (subject to the limitations for amortization as set forth in
subsection (a) above), or (ii) until City's payment of the amount required
pursuant to Section 9.5(a). When the Additional Investment

_ _ of the amount required to be paid by City pursuant to Section 9.5(a), all
right, title and interest in and to all Facility Goods or Additional
