The Incentive Fee shall be 10% annually for each Fiscal Year of operations, for the initial term and each approved Renewal Term (if any). Gross revenues shall not include gross revenues received by Manager as a concessionaire for the food and beverage and pro shop facility (merchandise). Gross revenues will include the 5% concession fee paid by Manager to the City for the use of the latter facilities.

Should the "net operating income before debt service" be less than the established debt service for $800,000 for the Miami Beach Golf Club, and $410,000 for the Normandy Shores Golf Club, Manager's annual Incentive Fee shall be reduced proportionately. By example, if the net operating income before debt service for the Miami Beach Golf Club is $720,000 (10% less) then Manager's annual Incentive Fee for the Miami Beach Golf Club shall be reduced by 10% for that specific Course. The Incentive Fee for each Golf Course will be earned individually and based on the conditions stated above.

KEVIN SMITH DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION CITY OF MIAMI BEACH PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT 2100 WASHINGTON AVENUE MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA 33139 REPORT # 07-11099 TERRY BUCHEN, CGCS, MG GOLF AGRONOMY INTERNATIONAL, LLC CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA NORMANDY SHORES GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE & MINIMUM EQUIPMENT NEEDED STANDARDS SEPTEMBER, 2007 MR. KEVIN SMITH, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION 2 MAINTENANCE CONDITIONING & MINIMUM EOUIPMENT NEEDED STANDARDS: Please Note: All Equipment listed is for mandatory usage and all quantities listed are the minimum amounts reauired to provide the desired Maintenance Conditioning Standards. SEASHORE PASPALUM GENERAL GROWTH HABITS & GUIDELINES: I am going to provide my thoughts, observations and recommendations regarding the successful growth of seashore paspalum, which will sometimes differ with what the people that are marketing this type of grass are telling all of us! • Seashore Paspalum should be grown on its own merits, as it is significantly different compared to growing bermudagrass. Its growth habits and management techniques in many respects rival creeping bentgrass significantly more than bermudagrass and it should be maintained and managed similar to creeping bentgrass. • The following line items are extremely important for success in growing Seashore Paspalum: o The biggest aspect of growing seashore paspalum is to be "Pro -Active" and on cruise control where all aspects of routine maintenance practices are in moderation/consistent — not "Re -Active", where the turf is in decline and are playing "catch-up." o Keeping management practices consistent is highly recommended. o The turf will react "fast" to most management decisions, especially poor management decisions by not doing maintenance practices consistently and quick enough. o It does not like to be injured and when it is it will usually recover slowly, after aerification, i.e., when injured, it can take up to 4-6 weeks to recover. o It becomes injured from dull lawn mowers, e.g., if "relief grinding" is used the reels should be "lapped" on a weekly basis so that they are constantly sharp and they should be ground whenever needed on a year round basis; when the reels are not relief around, they should be ground frequently so that the reels and bedknifes are constantly sharp. The reels should always cut a piece of paper each morning before mowing begins and the reels should be adjusted as -needed while out mowing on the golf course on a daily basis. o It does not have to be grown on high TDS water, as it can grow properly on perfect quality irrigation water. Extra "salt" does not have to be added, TERRY BUCHEN, CGCS, MG GOLF AGRONOMY INTERNATIONAL, LLC CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA NORMANDY SHORES GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE & MINIMUM EQUIPMENT NEEDED STANDARDS SEPTEMBER, 2007 MR. KEVIN SMITH, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION 3 as it acts like a growth regulator to the turf. o The Salts should be managed properly. If Salts are managed before, during and after managing the turf, it will be successful. o Irrigating deep and infrequently — usually every 4-6 days should be done at all times. o Seashore paspalum is a prolific Thatch and Organic Matter producer. o Greens (2- minimum with topdressing attachments) & Fairway (1- minimum) Deep Verticutting Machines, e.g., Graden, or equal, should be in the equipment inventory as they will be needed from this point forward. o The nutrients that have the biggest impact on growth and color are Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn) and Zinc (Zn), and to a lesser degree, Copper (Cu), Boron (B) and Molybdenum (Mo). It will always be a challenge to have the right balance and combination of the above listed nutrients. o Fertigation, Granular and Sprayable Fertilizers should be used. Granular Fertilizers will produce a smaller leaf blade than liquids, thus granular fertilizers should be used more than liquids, especially on the greens and collars. o Scalping usually occurs from using too much Nitrogen and from lowering the mowing height increments too fast. o Yellowing discoloration is caused from Calcium imbalance in the soil — not from a deficiency, i.e., the Calcium to Magnesium balance ratio is not correct. The Calcium to Magnesium Ratio must be kept at 3:1 — or even as high as 5:1 on all playing surfaces all year long. o Consistently available Calcium is the most essential nutrient in the Salinity management strategy, i.e., soil applications to counter excess Sodium and to stabilize the soil structure; soil applications for soil solution availability and turf root uptake; and foliar applications for turf shoot and root uptake and nutritional balance from sprayable products or Gypsum Injector. o Potassium is the most mobile nutrient in the soil. The Potassium levels should be kept high — 2-4 pounds actual Potassium per 1,000-square feet per month year round — to keep the turf strong and to help reduce disease pressure. o Cytokinin applications of Seaweed, Kelp or Yucca extract products should contain >10% extract for adequate Cytokinin replacement levels and plant responses. o It does not extract "salts" from the soil — so when a build-up occurs they should be deep flushed-out as-needed by rainfall or with irrigation. Salt is a gibberellin inhibitor. o High levels of Chlorides will block Nitrate uptake. TERRY BUCHEN, CGCS, MG GOLF AGRONOMY INTERNATIONAL, LLC CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA NORMANDY SHORES GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE & MINIMUM EQUIPMENT NEEDED STANDARDS SEPTEMBER, 2007 MR. KEVIN SMITH, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION 4 o Manganese levels will be extremely low in Salt -challenged soils and supplemental applications should be made above and beyond micronutrient packages. o Hot, dry conditions limit foliar uptake in the plant, but with higher humidity the foliar uptake will be much better. o For every 1- inch of Sodium buildup in the soil, a 1- inch flush with irrigation water or rainfall is required to remove it, which is only diluting the surface. Wetting agents do a significant job of helping flush Sodium from the soils. o Billbugs, especially on bunker faces or where turf is weak, could be a problem. o Armyworms will come in during the first year, especially on any imported sod, and can get worse as times moves on. o Mole Crickets will be a problem during the first year or two and then will significantly subside after they are chemically treated properly, e.g., Top Choice, Orthane, or equal, and they like to go in the bunker surrounds because they like loose soil. Once the turf is healthy and thick enough they usually cannot get through the canopy density and should become less and less of a problem. o Tropical Sod Webworm, Spittlebugs, Bermudagrass Mites, Greenbugs (Aphids) and Grubs can also be a problem. o Seashore Paspalum usually will harbor beneficial predator insects. o Spiral Nematodes will usually hurt the turf at the 4'/2 threshold levels, or higher. o Spiral and Root -Knot Nematodes are Salt tolerant. Lance, Sting, Sheathoid and Ring Nematodes can also be harmful. Test regularly/annually for Nematode count and thresholds. Curfew, Turfcare 376 and Nemacur are chemical cures. o Proxy & Trimmit Growth Retardants will not suppress growth — only the seed heads. Primo Growth Retardant shuts down the growth — but it has no affect on seed heads. o It is normal to have minimal or no visible dew each morning.
