(C) No party hereto shall be liable for its failure to carry out its obligations under the Agreement during a period when such party is rendered unable, in whole or in part, by Force Majeure to carry out such obligations.

In fiscal year 2023/2024, the MBVCA funded the TAP in seven categories, including: Development Opportunities, Film Incentive, Major One Time Special Event, Special Events Recurring, Special Projects, Special Projects Recurring,and Tourism Partnerships. A total of$1,379,000 was awarded in FY 2023/2024, compared to $1,099,500 in FY 2022/2023.The increase is attributed to the return of many recurring events,some of which have qualified for larger grant categories,with 3 new events receiving funding from the MBVCA. Grants funded in partnership with the CMB are critical, branded tourism-related programs, such as the Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach Wine+ Food Festival and UNTITLED, Art Miami Beach; both examples of events whose beginnings in Miami Beach stem from grants provided by the MBVCA;events that could easily be recruited by other destinations. FY 2024/2025 TOURISM ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM The MBVCA strategically focuses its funding to maximize tourism and brand;to improve Miami Beach by focusing on events and projects that generate significant publicity; strengthen brand and increase tourism (generating critical resort taxes for Miami Beach).The Board pays significant attention to marquee events. Review process: For over two decades,the MBVCA has used a multi-level review process for its grant program and the process is reviewed annually. The process includes a mandatory pre-proposal staff conference to discuss MBVCA policies, procedures, and the TAP. During the meeting, MBVCA administration advises each potential applicant regarding the eligibility and appropriateness of the proposed project and determines the grant category best suited to the potential applicant.Once it is determined that the project is eligible,the MBVCA administration provides further detail, including required attachments, relevant meeting dates, deadlines, and access to the online Application Portal. The applicant is provided with an overview of the application submission process.All applications are submitted through the online Application Portal in a multi-step format.All grant formats and policies are available on the MBVCA website. By Florida law,all MBVCA meetings are advertised and open to the public;all records are public records. Annually,the MBVCA Board reviews and refines grant guidelines with respect to efficacy and effectiveness. In FY 2012/2013,the MBVCA implemented changes to its funding caps and declining scale.The new declining scale and funding caps allowed the MBVCA to diversify their funding into other areas and initiatives as requested by the City Administration and/or the Board. In FY 2023/2024 the MBVCA voted to maintain the Major One Time Special Event and Special Events Recurring minimum criteria at 200 hotel room nights and maintained the media impressions and viewership minimum requirements at 1,000,000 each.The Special Projects and Special Projects Recurring hotel room night requirements were also maintained at 1,000 hotel room nights,along with the media impressions at 100,000,000,with the viewership requirement at 10,000,000.The Board continued to accept hotel agreements in place of fully executed hotel contracts,to meet the hotel requirement,as long as they were entered into by the Applicant Organization. This allowed groups to assume less risk when entering agreements and to encourage new events to apply. 2 Docusign Envelope ID:0CC9B759-DFB6-4CBB-8432-08624B659E03 EXHIBIT E MBVCA FY 2025 WORK PLAN AND BUDGET In FY 2024/2025 the MBVCA voted to change the name of the Major One Time Special Event grant category to Major Events. This eliminates the confusion for first-time applicants whose events will in fact return for subsequent years. In addition, the MBVCA voted to increase the Major Event and Special Events Recurring minimum criteria from 200 hotel room nights to 250 hotel room nights and also increase the media impressions and viewership minimum requirements from 1,000,000 each to 1,500,000. The maximum request for said categories was also increased from $45,000 to$50,000 for Major Events and Year 1 of Special Events Recurring, from $45,000 to$40,000.The MBVCA also voted to increase the Special Projects and Special Projects Recurring minimum criteria from 1,000 hotel room nights to 1,500 hotel room nights and increase the media impressions from 100,000,000 to 150,000,000, with the viewership minimum requirements increasing from 10,000,000 to 15,000,000. The maximum request for said categories was also increased from $90,000 to $100,000 for Special Projects,with Year 1 of Special Projects Recurring,increasing from$85,000 to$95,000. Lastly,the Board voted to increase the minimum criteria for the Development Opportunities category,from 70 hotel room night to 75 hotel room nights;from 200,000 minimum media impressions to 400,000; with the minimum viewership remaining at 500,000, along with the maximum request at $30,000. The Tourism Partnerships grant category criterion will remain the same for FY 2024/2025.This declining scale will also remain the same for FY 2024/2025. The Board will also continue to allow applicants to submit their reviews and/or audits using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as well as, prepared in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services promulgated by the Accounting and Review Services Committee of the AICPA,for tax basis financial statements,in FY 2024/2025. The grant criteria guidelines were reviewed for clarity and accuracy, requiring fully executed agreements and contracts to be submitted prior to proceeding with the next step in the application process. The application requires hotel room block agreements and/or contracted blocks;fully executed media contracts or confirmed and generated media impressions, and/or broadcast/cable/TV contracts, in order to proceed with the grant submission. The criteria must be confirmed before and after funding is awarded and grant applicants must meet two of the three criteria in place for each of the MBVCA grant categories. MBVCA grants are paid upon performance;therefore,grantees are required to provide post-performance reports in the form of reservation or pick-up reports from Miami Beach hotels; impressions analytics garnered from the organization's PR Firm, or accompanied by third party confirmation from a media monitoring/press clipping service such as Burrellesluce to prove media impressions, and/or a broadcast post-performance report from a third party reporting delivery of Adult 18+and Households(HH)in Thousands(000)from Nielsen,Over The Top(OTT),or Comscore/Rentrak for viewership. In FY 2024/2025,the guidelines will continue to specify that third party hotel agreements will not be accepted. In addition,any changes to the original hotel agreements must be reported to the administration. In FY 2023/2024, the MBVCA included specific language and messaging provided by the grantee within its social media accounts, such as Facebook, Instagram, and X. In turn, the grantee was required to proactively share information,photos,and details related to the promotion,tagging MBVCA's Experience Miami Beach social media handle throughout their platforms: Facebook(@ExperienceMiamiBeach), Instagram (@ExperienceMiamiBeach), and X(@EMiamiBeach).The Grantee also agreed to post a MINIMUM OF six(6)pieces of content,per channel to include: 3 pieces of content with tags during their live activation in-market and in real time (2 stories and 1 in- feed post) PLUS 3 pieces of post-event content with appropriate tags within 10 days of the activation dates. In addition, the Grantee provided a topline recap of reach, engagement and any other key metrics based on performance from their respective channels within 30 days of the last posting. Proof of engagement and other key metrics were to be generated from the grantees'social media platforms metrics/insights,with copies provided 3 Docusign Envelope ID:0CC9B759-DFB6-4CBB-B432-08624B659E03 EXHIBIT E MBVCA FY 2025 WORK PLAN AND BUDGET with the grantees' respective final report documentation, post-event. In 2024/2025,the MBVCA will continue to require the social media postings as outlined above. The MBVCA guidelines and application process places emphasis on defining and measuring the economic impact of each event, as well as considering the impact and value of marketing, publicity, and television origination/viewership. Questions concerning the economic impact of the program, including requiring an explanation of various aspects of the marketing plan, and how the numbers of hotel room nights are calculated and where they are contracted, are also required as part of the application.Standardized recap sheets and point systems have been developed to give each applicant a score that rates potential success. In 2020/2021,specific point systems are in place and implemented for each of the grant categories.The redesign allowed for a better alignment with the minimum requirements in place within each grant category,focusing the scoring on the three grant criteria in place, of which an applicant must meet two. This point system will remain in place for FY 2024/2025. Utilizing these tools, the MBVCA is better equipped to evaluate the applicant's long-term commitment to the community; commitment to brand enhancement; value to tourism, and overall economic impact. The MBVCA Board then votes on each specific and individual grant, and evaluates the grant request, funds available, and possible extenuating circumstances, after a formal presentation is made by the grant applicant.A question-and- answer period follows,with further discussion as needed. RECURRING PROJECTS: The MBVCA has a current policy in place to fund recurring projects on a declining scale. The declining scale encourages recurring events to recruit corporate and private sponsorship and therefore,not solely rely on MBVCA funds as a means of sustaining the event year after year. The award category establishes funding caps for recurring events, funding that can be reduced based cm the maximum request for the specific grant category. Below is the current scale,implemented in FY 2012/2013,and applicable to both non-and for-profit agencies.The declining scale will remain in place for FY 2024/2025. Year 1 Initial Grant Award Year 2 No more than 80%of Eligible Request Year 3 No more than 70%of Eligible Request Year 4 No more than 60%of Eligible Request Year 5 New Cycle Begins CATEGORIES: TAP funds are currently awarded in seven categories, including: Development Opportunities, Film Incentive, Major Events,Special Events Recurring,Special Projects,Special Projects Recurring,and Tourism Partnerships.The MBVCA has developed pre-eligibility criteria for grants within these categories. The criteria allow staff to determine eligibility and the appropriate grant category. Applicants must meet two of three of the criteria noted. 4 Docusign Envelope ID:0CC9B759-DFB6-4CBB-B432-08624B659E03 EXHIBIT E MBVCA FY 2025 WORK PLAN AND BUDGET Grant Category Contracted Hotel Contracted Media Contracted Television and/or Cable Room Nights Impressions Broadcast Development 75 400,000 500,000 Opportunities Film Incentive* 200 N/A N/A Major Events 250 1,500,000 1,500,000 Special Events Recurring 250 1,500,000 1,500,000 Special Projects 1,500 150,000,000 15,000,000 Special Projects Recurring 1,500 150,000,000 15,000,000 Tourism Partnerships 175 500,000 1,500(Engagement)** *Specific requirements are in place for the Film Incentive Grant Program. ** Engagement is determined through a combination of confirmed visitors/guests (walk-ins); Website Hits; Telephone Calls; Emails,App downloads;Webpage Engagement via Website through "Contact Us Form" or Live Chat,from prior fiscal year.

Projects will include the continuation of the Forbes Travel Guide Online Webinars,offering free hospitality training to Miami Beach-based employees.The webinars were incorporated during the pandemic when live trainings could not be conducted. Due to their popularity, they will again be offered during the upcoming fiscal year, for both Frontline and Leadership level employees, and available to all hospitality employees. A different topic will be introduced during each session. App Marketing The MBVCA wishes to continue to provide visitors with timely and relevant information about the City of Miami Beach;its public and private attractions,services,hotels,businesses,and events in order to enhance visitors'(and residents') experiences. Visitors to Miami Beach - all visitors worldwide —are increasingly using technology to navigate cities or make decisions about leisure experiences,dining, parking,entertainment,and travel in general. Worldwide,technology is king.Many visitors already use the free Miami Beach Wi-Fi service,CMBWiFi,to access the information they need at select public locations around town. Since its latest version release, the Experience Miami Beach (EMB) App, formerly the Miami Beach Information (MBI) App, has added new and exciting features for the end-user that include a side-swipe feature; listing the 8 Docusign Envelope ID:0CC9B759-DFB6-4CBB-8432-08624B659E03 EXHIBIT E MBVCA FY 2025 WORK PLAN AND BUDGET information in an A-Z format;the addition of new categories that included Shopping,Nightlife,Art&Culture,and Restaurants, and the creation of the "My Miami Beach" section where users can add events, photos, and itineraries as they navigate the App.The App also features a"Deals"section that has special promotional rates or offers developed by MBVCA grantees that can be cross promoted through MBVCA grantees and social media pages such as Facebook,X,and Instagram. During FY 2021/2022,the App's name was changed to Experience Miami Beach,from Miami Beach Information, to be better aligned with the MBVCA's social media accounts. In addition, the App was promoted through partnerships with the MBVCA grantees,featuring various events and upcoming grantee events. In FY 2022/2023, a new app entitled EXPMiamiBeach.Tours was released through iOS, Android, and was made available to view on mobile web devices.The new app focused solely on the enhanced version of the existing tours and provided a platform to include new tours curated with the MBVCA's various partners. Some of the tours created included "Art in Public Places", "No Vacancy Miami Beach" (available during the project dates), both through a collaboration with the City of Miami Beach; "Art Outside" through a collaboration with The Bass Museum; a "Cultural Institutions" tour, developed in collaboration with Miami Beach's museums and cultural spaces;"LGBTQ Sites Top Five"and"LGBTQ Nightlife"tour,both through a collaboration with the GMCVB and the Miami Dade Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce; and the"Hidden Art", "Public Art and Iconic History", and "A Day Inside Miami Beach Architectural Wonders" tours, all developed through a collaboration with George Neary, Board Member and President of Tours"R" Us. In FY 2023/2024,the MBVCA continued to promote both Apps through social media,the MBVCA website,specific ads, and grantee partnerships, allocating 1%of its total budget. Deals, promotions, and special notices were also posted and promoted through the Experience Miami Beach App. The App has now been downloaded 28,000 times (as of July 2024), across the Android and iOS platforms. Approximately half of all downloads come from European users seeking to learn about Miami Beach. In FY 2024/2025, the MBVCA will be refreshing the Experience Miami Beach app to include making the "deals" more visual similar to Groupon; updating the events section to include a featured event option pinned at the top of the section; updating all libraries and security features for both Android and iPhone, and possibly integrating Apple Ads.The EXPMiamiBeach.Tours app will also integrate additional existing tour and also create new tours that appeal to Miami Beach visitors. IT Development The MBVCA's preliminary review of opportunities and needs was initiated in spring 2011 in consultation with area experts, and after a public meeting sponsored by the MBVCA, as a situational analysis.The MBVCA released an RFP in January 2012 and awarded a one-year contract to Just Program LLC dba Solodev on May 22, 2012. The purpose of the RFP was to develop a Miami Beach-focused web-based digital content management system (CMS) and modifiable database to support third party mobile applications via an application programming interface (API). Currently, the API is fully functional with forty-one (44) distinct categories of businesses, each averaging 90 different services and amenities. 9 Docusign Envelope ID.0CC9B759-DFB6-4CBB-B432-08624B659E03 EXHIBIT E MBVCA FY 2025 WORK PLAN AND BUDGET In FY 2020/2021,the API upgrades included the updating of various sections within the business categories.They also included adding whether a restaurant/bar/nightclub's event space is considered small,medium,or large;the changing of celebrity chef to executive chef,expanding the Cuisine type,adding services,and what the restaurant is "good for" within the restaurant category; adding services and amenities to the Bars category; changing form fields and services within the Nightclub category;adding"Dorm Style"to the type of hotel room within the hotel category, as well as, adding property and room amenities; adding additional services to the Beauty Parlors category,and adding Health&Safety Measures throughout all of the business categories. In 2022/2023,the Experience Miami Beach App was updated with the revamped list of businesses.The categories available were reviewed and condensed to be more in line with what a tourist would search for when visiting our City. Web and App developers can use these attributes to create new and exciting experiences for their end- users. The App continued to promote the MBVCA grantee's deals and highlighted various promotions available. In FY 2023/2024, the MBVCA continued to work with City personnel to ensure the business information within the API is the most up to date. In FY 2024/2025,the MBVCA will continue to update the API through its partnership with the City of Miami Beach and other partners.A total of$50,000,or 1%of the total budget,will be allocated towards IT development. Research and Development The MBVCA will develop a strategic list of major events worldwide as the result of ongoing communications and consulting with all partners.We expect to investigate some of these events with the goal of the development of a new major event for the destination.The MBVCA will continue to work with their PR firm of record,to compile a list of major events that could be attracted to the destination.The MBVCA will also continue to collaborate with local partners. A total of$244,700 has been allotted for Research and Development in FY 2024/2025. Projected Cash Flow Reserve The MBVCA has budgeted $5,000 of the total budget,for cash flow reserve in FY 2024/2025.The City of Miami Beach allots resort tax payments to the MBVCA a month after its collection;therefore, as a fiscal responsibility, the MBVCA has built in a projected cash flow reserve to its budget to ensure that all grants awarded will have the necessary funds to be reimbursed upon proper request and documentation. Administration and Overhead The MBVCA's administration and benefits costs are budgeted at$569,800 for FY 2024/2025.This figure represents 14%of the total budget. The overhead allocation is budgeted at$150,000,which reflects 4%of the overall budget, with $5,000 allocated for capital expenses. The increase from FY 2024/2025 is attributed to the purchase of updated office equipment,technology,and the reconfiguration of the conference room utilized by the Board for their monthly meetings,along with a 2.7%COLA increase for all em ployees.The total administration and overhead costs are 18%of the total budget. Reserves A total of$410,000 is being transferred from reserves to supplement the FY 2024/2025 budget.

According to Sec.102-251,the MBVCA is to take"all necessary and proper action to promote the tourist industry for the city, including but not restricted to causing expert studies to be made, promotional programs, the recommendations and development of tourist attractions and facilities within the city,and to carry out programs of information, special events, convention sales and marketing, advertising designed to attract tourists,visitors and other interested persons."The MBVCA also has the duty of making all necessary rules and regulations for the efficient operations of the authority. The MBVCA is a seven-member authority. Each member is appointed by the City of Miami Beach Commission, with the goal of encouraging, developing, and promoting the image of Miami Beach locally, nationally, and internationally as a vibrant community and tourist destination.To this end,the MBVCA strategically focuses its funding investments in a balanced manner,fostering outstanding existing programs,stimulating new activities, and encouraging partnerships.The MBVCA is committed to a careful, long-term plan for allocation of resources to build the uniqueness of Miami Beach as one of the world's greatest communities and tourism destinations. A budget revenue projection is provided to the MBVCA by the City of Miami Beach Budget Office annually based on 5% of the 2% Resort Tax, less 4%for administrative allowance. On an annual basis the MBVCA must provide the City with a budget,on City forms,based on this projection as outlined in Sec.102-252,before October 1" The MBVCA normally budgets funding below the City's projection,as the collection of funds can differ substantially from projection,such as the result of unanticipated problems like an airline strike,terrorism,economic issues,or storms. In 2008, revenue collections came in$48,000 under the estimated projection, and in 2001 the revenue collection was down approximately$300,000 from projection.When and if there are unallocated funds remaining at the end of the budget year,those funds are either rolled over and allocated in the next budget year,or retained in MBVCA accounts for future reserves,to address any funding reductions in future years. In 2001,by statute,the MBVCA began investing in the creation of an endowment fund. The MBVCA is required by law to maintain reserve bank accounts in approved public depositories,with sufficient reserves to cover one year of funding,which it does.Reserves are maintained to pay grant recipients(contracted) for the previous program funding cycle,and to ensure that sufficient funds can be invested to stimulate tourism in the future.The level of reserves was modified in 2011 to maximize the value and impact of tourism-directed funds. The MBVCA submits an annual Program of Work to the CMB as required by Sec.102-281. 1
