across the nation;" and

Naming Sponsor, and Naming Sponsor desires to acquire the Naming Rights from City, all as

be for a term of years ending on January 14 of the third year following the First

high quality theatrical dramas in Mackenzie Park substantially in accordance
with Carter -Burgess Project No. 020136, dated January 11, 2002 as prepared
for Parkhill, Smith & Cooper, Inc. in response to City of Lubbock Invitation
to Bid for Mackenzie Park Amphitheatre, ITB Number 010-02/RS, Project
Number 9145.9211.20000. A rendering of said design is attached as Exhibit

drama and/or musical from June through August (or a similar summertime
period as agreed with the entertainment entity) that will highlight Lubbock's
history. The play may begin with one act, but will expand to three or more
acts and open in its entirety during Lubbock's 100 -year birthday in 2009. If
by the year 2009, the summer production as described herein is not in place,
Naming Sponsor may cancel this Agreement without penalty, in which case
this Agreement will become null and void. If at any time after the summer of
2009, the frequency of productions declines or diminishes significantly in
Naming Sponsor's judgement, Naming Sponsor may cancel this Agreement
without penalty. City will work toward a long-term contract with a suitable
outside entity for production of a suitable drama. The annual drama or
musical commencing with the 2009 season will be a major high quality
theatrical production intended to draw visitors and tourists from across the
region and the state, and hopefully from across the nation. If the annual
drama or musical is not presented in the intended manner, or if the
Amphitheatre facility is not maintained as a first class facility, as reasonably
determined by Naming Sponsor, then Naming Sponsor may cancel this
Agreement without penalty. City may also work toward securing additional
long-term theatrical events.
(d) City will ensure that the Amphitheatre and the theatrical drama or musical are
marketed on a local, regional, statewide, and national level.

Mackenzie Amphitheatre Naming Agreement
Page 6 of 15
(d) City will require that the stationery, brochures and correspondence for the
Amphitheatre advertising materials for all Amphitheatre events include the
Amphitheatre Name and/or Amphitheatre Marks, and will use reasonable
efforts to have the Amphitheatre Name and/or Amphitheatre Marks
included on appropriate other items which are used by the City in the

or other three dimensional symbol of the corporation in a mutually agreed
upon design and venue location.

that it will not accept or allow advertising in the Amphitheatre for
products or services that are directly competitive with the Designated

temporary in nature, erected by an event sponsor, promoter, sponsor or
participant, even though such display may constitute competitive
advertising;
(ii) The advertising materials naming an event sponsor for a particular event
developed and distributed by a sublicensee of City.

(a) Naming Sponsor agrees that it shall have no right to change the
Amphitheatre Name except as provided herein. During the entire term of
this Agreement, including any extensions, Naming Sponsor shall have the
right to cause the name of the Amphitheatre to be changed once in
compliance with all the terms of this Section. In order to change the name
of the Amphitheatre, Naming Sponsor shall notify City that it desires to
change the name of the Amphitheatre and disclose the new name. City shall
not unreasonably withhold approval of the new name if the following

reasonable sensibilities of the public at large, or which would violate

satisfied, either because the name has already been changed once or the
name chosen does not satisfy the above criteria, or for any other reason,
City will consider requests by the Naming Sponsor to change the name.

of a facility such as the Amphitheatre, once it has been established is of
primary importance and that consent to change is not likely to be granted.

five days and promptly submit all necessary requests for the approval of
all governmental agencies whose approval is necessary at such time.

and expenses that may be incurred by City, or any of its affiliated entities as
a result of such change.

the Amphitheatre Name

making of necessary physical changes to the Amphitheatre and its
components and the discontinuance of the use of stationary, tickets and
