T-Bones Baseball Club, LLC
Attention: Adam Ehlert
1800 Village West Parkway
Kansas City, Kansas 66111
Dear Mr. Ehlert:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Management Agreement between the Unified Government of
Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas (“Unified Government”) and T-Bones Baseball Club, LLC (“TBones”) dated July 20, 2017 (the “Agreement”). All capitalized terms which are not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.
On behalf of the Unified Government the purpose of this letter is to notify the T-Bones that it is in
default under the following terms of the Agreement:
1) Sec. 6.3 – Payment of Certain Utility Expenses.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the T-Bones are responsible for the payment of certain utility
expenses as set forth in Section 6.3. As of August 13, 2018 there was an outstanding balance of Two
Hundred Five Thousand Two Hundred Thirty Four Dollars and 71/100 ($205,234.71) for these charges.
(See Exhibit 1). We ask that you remit full payment to the Unified Government within ten (10) days of
this Notice of Default as provided for in Sec. 22.1(i) of the Agreement. Should the T-Bones fail to do so,
the Unified Government reserves the right to seek all remedies available at law as provided for in Sec.
22.2 of the Agreement, including termination of the Agreement.

 2) Sec. 22.8 – Payment of Certain Past Due Obligations incurred under the Lease Agreement
Under the terms of the Agreement, the T-Bones are obligated to make forty-eight (48) monthly payments
of One Thousand Six Hundred Seventy-Eight Dollars and 78/100 ($1,678.78) to the Unified
Government for past due payments owed under that certain Lease Agreement dated February 21, 2014
(the “Lease Agreement”). As of August 13, 2018 the Unified Government has received only three
monthly payments. The T-Bones are therefore in default for ten (10) monthly payments in the amount of
Sixteen Thousand Seven Hundred Eighty-Seven Dollars and 80/100 ($16,787.80).
We ask that you remit full payment to the Unified Government within ten (10) days of this Notice of
Default as provided for in Sec. 22.1(i) of the Agreement. Should the T-Bones fail to do so, the Unified
Government reserves the right to seek all remedies available at law as provided for in Sec. 22.2 of the
Agreement, including termination of the Agreement.
3) Sec. 22.8(g) – BPU Charges
Under the terms of the Agreement, the T-Bones agreed that the Agreement did not release it from its
obligations to pay the BPU Charges incurred under the Lease Agreement. As of the date of this Notice,
those charges amount to Three Hundred Twenty Eight Thousand Seven Hundred Forty Nine Dollars and
77/100 ($328,749.77)(See Exhibit 2). We ask that you remit full payment to the Kansas City Board of
Public Utilities within ten (10) days of this Notice of Default as provided for in Sec. 22.1(i) of the
Agreement. Should the T-Bones fail to do so, the Unified Government reserves the right to seek all
remedies available at law as provided for in Sec. 22.2 of the Agreement, including termination of the
Agreement.
4) Sec. 6.3(e) – Surety bond/Letter of credit
Under the terms of the Agreement, the T-Bones were required to obtain a surety bond in the amount of
One Hundred Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars and NO/100 ($135,000.00). Pursuant to a letter dated
September 13, 2017, the Unified Government stated that it would consider the T-Bones to be in
compliance with Sec. 6(e) if they were able to secure a surety bond in the amount of One Hundred
Fourteen Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars and No/100 ($114,750.00), for utility costs, and also
secure a letter of credit for Twenty Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars and NO/100 ($20,250.00),
representing one-third of the T-Bones’ Certain Past Due Obligations, as set forth in Section 22.8 of the
Agreement.
As of the date of this Notice, the Unified Government has not received confirmation that either of these
obligations have been fulfilled by the T-Bones. We ask that you cure this within thirty (30) days of this
Notice of Default as provided for in Sec. 22.1(ii) of the Agreement. Should the T-Bones fail to do so, the
Unified Government reserves the right to seek all remedies available at law as provided for in Sec. 22.2
of the Agreement, including termination of the Agreement.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please have your attorney contact me should you have any
questions about this Notice.
Sincerely,

 Patrick Waters
Senior Counsel
