DocuSign Envelope ID: C6B000E0-277D-4449-9CFE-B68E6D8D521B

If you choose to use a third-party supplier for your events technology needs, charges for load-
in and load-out supervision and house system technical assistance may apply. Omni Hotels
and Resorts reserves the right to approve all outside contractor(s). Certificates of insurance
and liability release will be required at minimum. All outside contractors must adhere to Omnis
published Audio Visual Services Standards/Production Guidelines requirements.
To ensure proper use and function of house sound systems, Omni reserves the right to:
1) Supply all audio support whenever the use of the in-house sound systems is utilized.
2) Supply all wireless microphones to ensure all utilized frequencies are managed
appropriately.

CANCELLATION CLAUSE
Group agrees that should it cancel its event for any reason, including changing its meeting site
to another hotel, that Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center will suffer damages. The closer to the
date of your event that a cancellation occurs, the less likely it is that Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN
Center will be able to replace any or all of your business with comparable business. Therefore,
the parties agree that Group will pay as liquidated damages to the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN
Center immediately upon notice of cancellation a percentage of the total revenues anticipated
by the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center for your event from sleeping rooms and food and
beverage events set forth in your program as follows:

Cancellation after contract signing and prior to Groups arrival $77,000.00


(100% of total room nights @ $229.00 + 100% of food &
beverage guarantee)

These payments may be subject to the applicable taxes.

Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center will not consider notice of cancellation valid and will not
release accommodations held until payment of the liquidated cancellation damages is received,
therefore delay in payment may result in higher damages owed.

Hotel agrees to use reasonable efforts to resell the Group rooms not used in the Room Block
and credit the revenue, less the reasonable costs incurred by the Hotel to resell the rooms,
against the Hotels damages set forth above, in an amount not to exceed the full amount of
such damages.

15
DocuSign Envelope ID: C6B000E0-277D-4449-9CFE-B68E6D8D521B

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the 2021 Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game
