Season Commentary

Average St. Louis Metro Summer Temperature

For the last two seasons Raging Rivers has opened for the season on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and its last day open for the season wasLabor Day. The park was also closed Tuesday through Friday after Memorial Day and the two-week period (excluding weekends) before Labor Dayweekend due to difficulty in finding qualified lifeguards and lower attendance. The Company has tested different season lengths since 2007.

Attendance is greatly impacted by a number of factors out of the Company’s control – namely weather and length of season. In recent years the Companyhas had to deal with minor flooding, rain and abnormal temperatures.

Average St. Louis Metro Rainfall

▪ 2009: Cooler summer with rain. Several days closing early

▪ 2010: One of the best years for weather recently – only a few days with delayed openings and no full days lost

▪ 2011 & 2012: Very high temperatures with 27 days > 100 degrees

▪ 2013 & 2014: Mild temperatures and several days closed due to rain and flooding, including part of Memorial Day weekend

▪ 2015: Cool start in June and July with 12 entire days lost to rain

▪ 2016: Warm summer with no lost days due to rain

▪ 2017 & 2018: Hot, relatively dry weather

Adjacent Land Offers Unique Opportunity to Enhance Value

11

Raging Rivers has approximately 152 acres of land adjacent to the park that can be used to develop a destination hotel as well as to expand the water park.Development of a destination hotel would likely create a significant amount of incremental traffic for the water park. A new hotel would also create theability to offer water park packages for guests during their stay. As outlined in the illustrative analysis below, the addition of a destination hotel createssignificant incremental value for the water park. Additional information on the adjacent land can be found in the accompanying Palisades ConfidentialInformation Presentation.

Resilient to Economic Downturns

12

Raging Rivers has successfully operated through three recessions in its history. The Company opened in July 1990 just as a recession was starting. Duringthe 2001 recession the Company managed to increase attendance ~11% over the previous year. During the Great Recession, which covered the 2008season, attendance fell 28%. However, 2008 was also affected by significant flooding, which resulted in the park being closed for 11 full days. Assuming thesame average daily attendance for 2008 for those days the park was closed, then adjusted attendance would have been ~93,600, resulting in a decline of17%.

The Company’s resilience to economic downturns is partly driven by its regional attraction. While super-regional parks such as the ones operated by CedarFair and Six Flags draw visitors from greater distances, Raging Rivers generally draws visitors within a closer radius. Because of this, during recessionaryperiods, many customers turn to regional operators, which can offer a staycation option at a lower cost than super-regional parks.

In-Park Spending Overview

21

In-park spending is a significant source of revenue and profits for a water park. In 2018, in-park spending accounted for ~40% of total revenue. There aremultiple ways in which a guest can spend money at the park in addition to ticket purchases. These include food and beverage, which represents the largestamount of in-park purchases, rental revenue, parking revenue and gift shop revenue.

In addition to being a large contributor to the top line, in-park spending is also generally more predictable and an easier tool to affect the top line than isincreasing attendance. Increasing revenue through attendance involves a number of factors, many of which are out of the Company’s control, such asweather. However, in-park spending metrics are generally more predictable and more easily affected and controlled by management’s decisions.

Rental Overview

23

Rental revenue is a source of relatively stable, high margin revenue generated through three primary sources – lockers, cabanas and tubes, which come in theform of a double or single-rider tube. These rental sources required large up-front capital expenditures, however each incremental dollar of revenue requiresvery little incremental cost in the form of a sales person, who is highly leverageable.

In 2013, the Company constructed 3cabanas available for rent and has since constructed 4 additional cabanas. Guests have responded favorably to the new cabanas resulting in approximately a50% utilization rate throughout the season.

Industry Overview

30

The water park industry in the U.S. is relatively mature. Barriers to entry for the industry are very high due to zoning restrictions, land costs andcapital requirements. Because of these dynamics there have been few new entrants in recent years. The most notable new park in recent years wasthe Schlitterbahn park in Kansas City.

The water park industry, and theme park industry in general, is exposed to standard leisure industry risks, including consumer confidence,employment, discretionary spending and gasoline prices, among others. In addition to the typical economic risks, water parks are also sensitive toevents beyond their control, including adverse weather and terrorism.
