2
K#03-669 r 3_ 100 8
(1) The City's Obligation shall be the difference between $50,000 [the
City's maximum potential Obligation hereunder] and the amount
of Gross Revenue that Concorde receives as a result of or in
connection with the 2003 Race Event Weekend.
(2) Raceworks' Obligation shall be $50,000.
(3) In no event shall the City's Obligation be more than $50,000.
Except for any amounts due as a result of a violation of Section 10
entitled "Removal of Barricades," in no event shall Raceworks'
Obligation be more than $50,000.
(4) Example No. l: If as a result of or in connection with the 2003

Raceworks' Obligation shall be $50,000.
(b) In the event that, as a result of, or in connection with, use of the Vessel
during the 2003 Race Event Weekend, Concorde receives a minimum of
$50,000 in Gross Revenue, but does not receive more than $100,000 in
Gross Revenue, then:
(1) The City shall have no Obligation.
(2) The amount of Raceworks' Obligation shall be the difference
between the amount of Gross Revenue above $50,000 received by
Concorde and $100,000. Therefore, Raceworks' Obligation shall
be calculated as the difference between $100,000 and the amount
of Gross Revenue that Concorde receives above $50,000.

as a result of or in connection with use of the Vessel during the 2003 Race
Event Weekend, then the City's Obligation shall be $0 and Raceworks'
Obligations shall be $0, unless Raceworks fails to remove barricades as
provided in Section 10 entitled "Removal of Barricades."
Example No. 3. If as a result of or in connection with the 2003

EXHIBIT A
RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS
THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH that in consideration of $10.00 and other good
and valuable consideration, Concorde Cruises, Inc. ("Concorde"), a South Dakota corporation,
releases and forever discharges the CITY OF MIAMI and RACEWORKS, LLC, their agencies,
agents, servants, employees, contractors, lessees, joint ventures, etc., and any other person, firm
or corporation, charged or chargeable with responsibility or liability, their respective heirs,
representatives and assigns, from any and all claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses, loss of
services, actions and causes of action (except as provided below) whether in the nature of
subrogation or otherwise, arising from any act or occurrence on account of or that may hereafter
be sustained in consequence of the Grand Prix Americas race that occurred October 4-6, 2002
(2002 Race Event) and the Grand Prix Americas race that will occur September 26-28, 2003
(2003 Race Event) (collectively the "Races"). Concorde does not hereby waive or release any
liability against the City or Raceworks for their respective negligence, gross negligence or
intentional torts that result in injury to persons, or for damage to property as a result of race -
related activities, for failure to pay the amounts due pursuant to the Agreement between the City
of Miami, Concorde Cruises, Inc., and Raceworks, LLC dated September _, 2003).
To procure payment of the said sum, Concorde hereby declares that it is sui juris; that no
representations about the nature and extent of said injuries or damages made by any attorney or
agent of any party, hereby released, nor any representations about the nature and extent of said
injuries or damages made by any attorney or agent of any party hereby released, nor any
representations regarding the nature and extent of legal liability or financial responsibility of any
of the parties hereby released, have induced it to make this settlement; that in determining said
sum there has been taken into consideration not only the ascertained injuries and damages, but
also the possibility that the injuries sustained may be permanent and progressive and recovery
therefrom uncertain and indefinite, so that consequences not now anticipated may result from the
said Races.
Concorde hereby agrees that, as a further consideration and inducement for this
compromise settlement, this settlement shall apply to all unknown and unanticipated injuries and
damages resulting from said Races, casualty or event, as well as to those now disclosed.
Concorde understands that the parties hereby released admit no liability of any sort by
reason of said Races and that said payment and settlement in compromise is made to terminate
further controversy respecting all claims for damages that it has heretofore asserted or that it or
its representative might or could hereafter assert because of the said Races.

;J3-1.008
Concorde further understands that such liability as it may or shall have incurred, directly
or indirectly, in connection with or for damages arising out of the incident to each organization
released and discharged of liability herein, and to any other organization, is expressly reserved to
each of them, such liability not being waived, agreed upon, discharged or settled by this release.
In consideration of the aforesaid consideration, Concorde agrees to indemnify and save
harmless the above-named parties and they are hereby released of and from any claims and all
liens including any subrogation claims arising out of the aforesaid incident.
