if any, of the Bonds through the payment (including regularly scheduled
principal payments, if any) or redemption thereof at the earliest date
permissible under the terms of the Indenture, or (2) at the option of the
Corporation, to the purchase of Bonds at such earlier date or dates as the
Corporation may elect. Any amount so deposited in the Bond Fund may be invested
as permitted by SECTION 702 of the Indenture.

name, to contest the validity, application or amount of any tax, assessment or

which has not been discharged of record, in respect of any work, labor,
services or materials performed, furnished or supplied, in connection
-17-
with the work and that all of said materials have been purchased free and

(c) If any of the insurance monies paid by the insurance company to the
Trustee or the Corporation as hereinabove provided, shall remain after the
completion of such repairs, restoration, replacement or rebuilding, and this
Lease shall not have terminated, the excess shall be deposited in the Bond Fund,
subject to the rights of any beneficiary. If the Net Proceeds shall be
insufficient to pay the entire cost of such repairs, restoration, replacement or
rebuilding, the Corporation shall pay the deficiency.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, in the event of any such
damage by fire or any other casualty, the provisions of this Lease shall be
unaffected and the Corporation shall remain and continue liable for the payment
of all Basic Rent and Additional Rental and all other charges required hereunder
to be paid by the Corporation, as though no damage by fire or any other casualty
has occurred.
(e) The City and the Corporation agree that they will cooperate with each
other, to such extent as such other party may reasonably require, in connection
with the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding arising out of, or
for the collection of any insurance monies that may be due in the event of, any
loss or damage, and that they will execute and deliver to such other parties
such instruments as may be required to facilitate the recovery of any insurance
monies.
(f) The Corporation agrees to give prompt notice to the City and the
Trustee with respect to all fires and any other casualties occurring in, on, at
or about the Project.
(g) If the Corporation shall determine that rebuilding, repairing,
restoring or replacing the Project is not practicable and desirable, any Net
Proceeds of casualty insurance required by ARTICLE VII hereof received with
respect to such damage or loss shall be paid into the Bond Fund and shall be
used to redeem Bonds on the earliest practicable redemption date or to pay the
principal of any Bonds as the same become due. The Corporation agrees to be
reasonable in exercising its judgment pursuant to this subsection (g).
(h) The Corporation shall not, by reason of its inability to use all or
any part of the Project during any period in which the Project is damaged or
destroyed or is being repaired, rebuilt, restored or replaced, nor by reason of
the payment of the costs of such rebuilding, repairing, restoring or replacing,
be entitled to any reimbursement from the City, the Trustee or the Bondowners or
to any abatement or diminution of the rentals payable by the Corporation under
this Lease or of any other obligations of the Corporation under this Lease
except as expressly provided in this Section.
SECTION 9.2. CONDEMNATION.
(a) If during the Lease Term, title to, or the temporary use of, all or
any part of the Project shall be condemned by or sold under threat of
condemnation to any authority possessing the power of eminent domain, to such
extent that the claim or loss resulting from such condemnation is greater than
$1,000,000,
-18-
the Corporation shall, within 90 days after the date of entry of a final order
in any eminent domain proceedings granting condemnation or the date of sale
under threat of condemnation, notify the City, the Trustee and the mortgagee
under any Leasehold Mortgage (if any) in writing as to the nature and extent of
such condemnation or loss of title and whether it is practicable and desirable
to acquire or construct substitute improvements.
(b) If the Corporation shall determine that such substitution is
practicable and desirable, the Corporation shall proceed promptly with and
complete with reasonable dispatch the acquisition or construction of such
substitute improvements, so as to place the Project in substantially the same
condition as existed prior to the exercise of the said power of eminent domain,
including the acquisition or construction of other improvements suitable for the
Corporation's operations at the Project (which improvements will be deemed a
part of the Project and available for use and occupancy by the Corporation
without the payment of any rent other than herein provided, to the same extent
as if such other improvements were specifically described herein and demised
hereby); provided, that such improvements will be acquired by the City subject
to no liens, security interests or encumbrances prior to the lien and/or
security interest afforded by the Indenture other than Permitted Encumbrances.
In such case, any Net Proceeds received from any award or awards with respect to
the Project or any part thereof made in such condemnation or eminent domain
proceedings, or of the sale proceeds, shall be applied in the same manner as
provided in SECTION 9.1 hereof (with respect to the receipt of casualty
insurance proceeds).
(c) If the Corporation shall determine that it is not practicable and
desirable to acquire or construct substitute improvements, any Net Proceeds of
condemnation awards received by the Corporation shall be paid into the Bond Fund
and shall be used to redeem Bonds on the earliest practicable redemption date or
to pay the principal of any Bonds as the same becomes due and payable, all
subject to the rights of the mortgagees under the Leasehold Mortgage, if any.
(d) The Corporation shall not, by reason of its inability to use all or
any part of the Project during any such period of restoration or acquisition nor
by reason of the payment of the costs of such restoration or acquisition, be
entitled to any reimbursement from the City, the Trustee or the Bondowners or to
any abatement or diminution of the rentals payable by the Corporation under this
Lease nor of any other obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in
this Section.
(e) The City shall cooperate fully with the Corporation in the handling
and conduct of any prospective or pending condemnation proceedings with respect
to the Project or any part thereof, and shall, to the extent it may lawfully do
so, permit the Corporation to litigate in any such proceeding in the name and on
behalf of the City. In no event will the City voluntarily settle or consent to
the settlement of any prospective or pending condemnation proceedings with
respect to the Project or any part thereof without the prior written consent of
the Corporation.
(f) In no event will the City voluntarily settle or consent to the
settlement of any prospective or pending condemnation proceedings with respect
to the Project or any part thereof without the prior written consent of the
Corporation.
(g) The City irrevocably assigns to the Corporation all of its rights to
any condemnation proceeds received in its capacity as landlord under this Lease.

SPECIAL COVENANTS
SECTION 10.1. NO WARRANTY OF CONDITION OR SUITABILITY BY THE CITY;
EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION. The City makes no warranty, either express or
implied, as to the condition of the Project or that it will be suitable for the
Corporation's purposes or needs. The Corporation releases the City from, agrees
that the City shall not be liable for and agrees to hold the City harmless
against, any loss or damage to property or any injury to or death of any person
that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the Project or the
use thereof; except to the extent that such loss is the result of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the City, its employees, agents or
contractors.
SECTION 10.2. SURRENDER OF POSSESSION. Upon accrual of the City's right of
re-entry because of the Corporation's default hereunder (beyond any applicable
grace or cure period) or upon the cancellation or termination of this Lease for
any reason other than the Corporation's purchase of the Project pursuant to
ARTICLE XI hereof, the Corporation shall peacefully surrender possession of the
Project to the City in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear
excepted; provided, however, the Corporation shall have the right within 90 days
(or such later date as the City may agree to) after the termination of this
Lease to remove from the Project Site any buildings, improvements, furniture,
trade fixtures, machinery and equipment owned by the Corporation and not
constituting part of the Project. All repairs to and restorations of the Project
required to be made because of such removal shall be made by and at the sole
cost and expense of the Corporation, and during said 90-day (or extended) period
the Corporation shall bear the sole responsibility for and bear the sole risk of
loss for said buildings, improvements, furniture, trade fixtures, machinery and
equipment. All buildings, improvements, furniture, trade fixtures, machinery and
equipment owned by the Corporation and which are not so removed from the Project
prior to the expiration of said period shall be the separate and absolute
property of the City.
SECTION 10.3. CITY'S RIGHT OF ACCESS TO THE PROJECT. In addition to the
inspection rights of the City pursuant to SECTION 3.1 of the Tax Abatement
Agreement, the Corporation agrees that the City and the Trustee and their duly
authorized agents shall have the right at reasonable times during business
hours, subject to the Corporation's usual safety and security requirements, to
enter upon the Project Site after delivering written notice to the Corporation
(a) as may be reasonably necessary to cause to be completed the acquisition,
purchase, construction, improving or remodeling provided for in SECTION 4.2
hereof, (b) to perform such work in and about the Project made necessary by
reason of the Corporation's default (following notice and the expiration of
applicable grace or cure periods) under any of the provisions of this Lease, and
(c) following an Event of Default, to exhibit the Project to prospective
purchasers, lessees or trustees.
SECTION 10.4. GRANTING OF EASEMENTS; LEASEHOLD MORTGAGES
(a) If no Event of Default under this Lease shall have happened and be
continuing, the Corporation may at any time or times (1) grant easements,
licenses, rights-of-way (including the dedication of public highways) and other
rights or privileges in the nature of easements that are for the direct use of
the Project, or part thereof, by the grantee, (2) release existing easements,
licenses, rights-of-way and other rights or privileges, all with or without
consideration and upon such terms and conditions as the Corporation shall
determine, or (3) grant or permit the Permitted Encumbrances. The City agrees
that it will execute and deliver and will cause and direct the Trustee to
execute and deliver any instrument necessary or appropriate to confirm and grant
or release any such easement, license, right-of-way or other right or privilege
or any such agreement or other arrangement, upon receipt by the City and the
Trustee of: (i) a copy of the
-20-
instrument of grant or release or of the agreement or other arrangement, (ii) a
written application signed by an Authorized Corporation Representative
requesting such instrument, and (iii) a certificate executed by an Authorized
Corporation Representative stating that such grant or release is not detrimental
to the proper conduct of the business of the Corporation, will not impair the
effective use or interfere with the efficient and economical operation of the
Project, and will not materially adversely affect the security intended to be
given by or under the Indenture. If no Event of Default shall have happened and
be continuing beyond any applicable grace period, any payments or other
consideration received by the Corporation for any such grant or with respect to
or under any such agreement or other arrangement shall be and remain the
property of the Corporation, but, in the event of the termination of this Lease
or during the continuation of an Event of Default, all rights then existing of
the Corporation with respect to or under such grant shall inure to the benefit
of and be exercisable by the City and the Trustee.
(b) The Corporation may mortgage the leasehold estate created by this
Lease, without the City's consent, provided and upon condition that:
(i) a duplicate original or certified copy or photostatic copy of
each such Leasehold Mortgage, and the note or other obligation secured
thereby, is delivered to the City within thirty (30) days after the
execution thereof; and
(ii) such Leasehold Mortgage shall contain a covenant to the effect
that the net proceeds of all insurance policies and the condemnation award
shall be held, used and applied for the purposes and in the manner
provided for in this Lease.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Lease, (i)
the Corporation shall have the right to assign this Lease and any subleases to
any leasehold mortgagee or to the designee or nominee of such leasehold
mortgagee, without the consent of the City, and (ii) if the leasehold mortgagee
or its designee or nominee shall acquire ownership of the leasehold estate,
either following foreclosure of such Leasehold Mortgage or in liquidation of the
indebtedness and in lieu of foreclosure thereof, the leasehold mortgagee or its
designee or nominee shall have the further right to further assign this Lease
and any subleases and any purchase money mortgage accepted in connection
therewith, without the consent of the City and such assignee shall enjoy all
rights, powers and privileges granted herein to leasehold mortgagees.
(d) If (1) the Corporation shall execute and deliver a Leasehold Mortgage,
and (2) the provisions and conditions of subsection (b) above shall have been
fully complied with and observed with respect to such Leasehold Mortgage, and
(3) the Corporation or the mortgagee under such Leasehold Mortgage shall have
notified the City in writing of the making thereof and of the name and address
of such leasehold mortgagee; then:
(i) this Lease may not be modified, amended, canceled or surrendered
by agreement between the City and the Corporation, without the prior
written consent of such leasehold mortgagee;
(ii) there shall be no merger of this Lease or of the leasehold
estate created hereby with the fee title to the Project, notwithstanding
that this Lease or said leasehold estate and said fee title shall be owned
by the same person or persons, without the prior written consent of such
leasehold mortgagee;
(iii) the City shall serve upon each such leasehold mortgagee a copy
of each notice of default and each notice of termination given to the
Corporation under this Lease, at the same time as
-21-
such notice is served upon the Corporation. No such notice to the
Corporation shall be effective unless a copy thereof is thus served upon
each leasehold mortgagee;
(iv) each leasehold mortgagee shall have the same period of time
after the service of such notice upon it within which the Corporation may
remedy or cause to be remedied the default which is the basis of the
notice plus sixty (60) days; and the City shall accept performance by such
leasehold mortgagee as timely performance by the Corporation;
(v) such leasehold mortgagee shall not be required to continue
possession or continue foreclosure proceedings under paragraph (vii) of
this subsection if the particular default has been cured;
(vi) the City may exercise any of its rights or remedies with
respect to any other default by the Corporation occurring during the
period of such forbearance provided for under said paragraph (g), subject
to the rights of the leasehold mortgagee under this Section as to such
other defaults;
(vii) in case of default by the Corporation under this Lease, other
than a default in the payment of money, the City shall take no action to
effect a termination of this Lease by service of a notice or otherwise,
without first giving to such leasehold mortgagee a reasonable time within
which either to obtain possession of the Project and to remedy such
default in the case of a default which is susceptible of being cured when
such leasehold mortgagee has obtained possession of the Project, or to
institute and with reasonable diligence to complete foreclosure
proceedings or otherwise acquire the Corporation's leasehold estate under
this Lease in the case of a default which is not so susceptible of being
remedied by such leasehold mortgagee, provided that the leasehold
mortgagee shall deliver to the City within thirty (30) days after the
expiration of the grace period applicable to the particular default, an
instrument unconditionally agreeing to remedy such default other than a
default not susceptible of being remedied by such leasehold mortgagee. The
City's right to terminate this Lease by reason of a default which is not
susceptible of being remedied by such leasehold mortgagee shall end with
respect to such default when the leasehold mortgagee obtains possession of
the Project as aforesaid, which possession shall be deemed to include
possession by a receiver;
(viii) if this Lease shall terminate prior to the expiration of the
Lease Term, the City shall enter into a new lease for the Project with any
such leasehold mortgagee, or its designee or nominee, for the remainder of
the term, effective as of the date of such termination, at the same rent
and upon the same terms, covenants and conditions contained herein, except
that such new lease shall not guarantee possession of the Project to the
new tenant as against the Corporation and/or anyone claiming under the
Corporation, and the City, simultaneously with the execution and delivery
of such new lease, shall turn over to the new tenant all monies, if any,
then held by the City under this Lease on behalf of the Corporation, on
condition that:
(A) such leasehold mortgagee shall make written request for
such new lease within thirty (30) days after the date of such
termination, and
(B) on the commencement date of the term of the new lease,
such leasehold mortgagee shall cure all defaults of the Corporation
under this Lease (susceptible of being cured by such leasehold
mortgagee) which remain uncured on that date, and shall pay or cause
to be paid all unpaid sums which at such time would have been
payable under this
-22-
Lease but for such termination, and shall pay or cause to be paid to
the City on that date all expenses, including reasonable counsel
fees, court costs and disbursements, incurred by the City in
connection with any such default and termination as well as in
connection with the execution and delivery of such new lease;
(ix) if such leasehold mortgagee or its designee or nominee shall
become the owner of this Lease either following foreclosure of such
Leasehold Mortgage or in liquidation of the indebtedness and in lieu of
foreclosure thereof and such leasehold mortgagee or its designee or
nominee shall have assigned this Lease, such leasehold mortgagee or its
designee or nominee so assigning shall be released from all liability
accruing from and after the date of such assignment.
If more that one leasehold mortgagee shall request such new lease, such
new lease shall be made with and delivered to the leasehold mortgagee (or its
nominee or designee) whose mortgage has priority to those of any others. The
opinion of a reputable title insurance company, licensed to insure title to real
property in the State of Kansas, setting forth the order of priority of such
mortgage liens, may be relied on by the City as conclusive evidence of such
priority.
SECTION 10.5. INDEMNIFICATION OF CITY AND TRUSTEE. The Corporation shall
indemnify and save the City and the Trustee harmless from and against all claims
by or on behalf of any person, firm or corporation arising from the conduct or
management of, or from any work or thing done in, on or about, the Project
during the Lease Term, and against and from all claims arising during the Lease
Term from (a) any condition of the Project caused by the Corporation, (b) any
breach or default on the part of the Corporation in the performance of any of
its obligations under this Lease, (c) any contract entered into in by the
Corporation or its sublessee, if any, in connection with the acquisition,
purchase, construction, improving or remodeling of the Project, (d) any act of
negligence of the Corporation or of any of its agents, contractors, servants,
employees or licensees, and (e) any act of negligence of any assignee or
sublessee of the Corporation, or of any agents, contractors, servants, employees
or licensees of any assignee or sublessee of the Corporation; provided, however,
the indemnification contained in this SECTION 10.5 shall not extend to the City
or the Trustee if (i) such claim is the result of work being performed at the
Project by employees, agents or contractors of the City, or (ii) such claim is
the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its
employees, agents or contractors, or (iii) with respect to the Trustee, such
claim is the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or
its employees, agents or contractors. The Corporation shall indemnify and save
the City and the Trustee harmless from and against all costs and expenses
(except those which have arisen from the willful misconduct or gross negligence
of the City or the Trustee) incurred in or in connection with any action or
proceeding brought in connection with claims arising from circumstances
described in clauses (a) through (e), and upon notice from the City or the
Trustee, the Corporation shall defend them or either of them in any such action
or proceeding.
If a claim is made or any action is brought against the City or the
Trustee (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") for which indemnification may
be sought against the Corporation under this Section 10.5, the Indemnified
Parties will promptly notify the Corporation in writing, and the Corporation
will promptly assume the defense thereof, including with the consent of the
Indemnified Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, the
employment of counsel, the payment of all expenses and the right to negotiate
and consent to settlement. Any one or more of the Indemnified Parties will have
the right to employ separate counsel with respect to any such claim or in any
such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of that counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified
Parties unless the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized,
in writing, by the Corporation or there is a conflict of interest that would
prevent counsel for the Corporation from adequately representing both the
Corporation and the Indemnified Parties. The Corporation will not be
-23-
liable for any settlement of any action effected without its written consent,
but if settled with the written consent of the Corporation or if there is a
final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action of which the Corporation is
required to assume the defense, the Corporation agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability by
reason of the settlement or judgment.
SECTION 10.6. DEPRECIATION, INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT AND OTHER TAX BENEFITS.
The City agrees that any depreciation, investment tax credit or any other tax
benefits with respect to the Project or any part thereof shall be made available
to the Corporation, and the City will fully cooperate with the Corporation in
any effort by the Corporation to avail itself of any such depreciation,
investment tax credit or other tax benefits.
SECTION 10.7. CORPORATION TO MAINTAIN ITS CORPORATE EXISTENCE. The
Corporation agrees that until the Bonds are paid or payment is provided for in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture, it will maintain its corporate
existence, and will not dissolve or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its assets; provided, however, that the Corporation may, without
violating the agreement contained in this Section, consolidate with or merge
into another domestic corporation (i.e., a corporation incorporated and existing
under the laws of one of the states of the United States) or permit one or more
other domestic corporations to consolidate with or merge into it, or may sell or
otherwise transfer to another domestic corporation all or substantially all of
its assets as an entirety and thereafter dissolve, provided, the surviving,
resulting or transferee corporation expressly assumes in writing all the
obligations of the Corporation contained in this Lease; and, further provided,
that the surviving, resulting or transferee corporation, as the case may be, has
a consolidated net worth (after giving effect to said consolidation, merger or
transfer) at least equal to or greater than that of the Corporation immediately
prior to said consolidation, merger or transfer. The term "net worth", as used
in this Section, shall mean the difference obtained by subtracting total
liabilities (not including as a liability any capital or surplus item) from
total assets of the Corporation and all of its subsidiaries. In any such
consolidation, merger or transfer the Corporation shall comply with the
provisions of SECTION 10.1 hereof to the extent applicable.
SECTION 10.8. SECURITY INTERESTS. At the written request of the Owner of
the Bonds, the City and the Corporation agree to enter into all instruments
(including financing statements and statements of continuation) necessary for
perfection of and continuance of the perfection of the security interests of the
City and the Trustee in the Project. Upon the written instructions of the Owner
of the Bonds, the Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, shall file all
instruments the Owner of the Bonds shall deem necessary to be filed and shall
continue or cause to be continued the liens of such instruments for so long as
the Bonds shall be Outstanding. The City and the Corporation shall cooperate
with the Trustee in this regard by executing such continuation statements and
providing such information as the Trustee may require to renew such liens.

of any such option and further provided that all options herein granted shall
terminate upon the termination of this Lease.

the City's election (subject, however, to any
-26-

default shall continue, take any one or more of the following actions:
(a) cause all amounts payable with respect to the Bonds for the remainder
of the term of this Lease to become due and payable, as provided in the
Indenture;
(b) give the Corporation written notice of intention to terminate this

rental and upon such other terms and conditions as the City may deem advisable,
with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Project (but without
liability on the part of the Corporation to pay for any such alterations), and
no such re-entry or taking of possession of the Project by the City shall be
construed as an election on the City's part to terminate this Lease, and no such
re-entry or taking of possession by the City shall relieve the Corporation of
its obligation to pay Basic Rent or Additional Rent (at the time or times
provided herein), or any of its other obligations under this Lease, all of which

any restrictions against termination of this Lease in the Indenture), by notice
to the Corporation given at any time thereafter following an Event of Default,
elect to terminate this Lease on a date to be specified in such notice, which
date shall be not earlier than 30 days after re-entry under (c) above, and if
all defaults shall not have then been cured, on the date so specified this Lease
shall thereupon be terminated. If in accordance with any of the foregoing
provisions of this Article the City shall have the right to elect to re-enter
and take possession of the Project, the City may enter and expel the Corporation
and those claiming through or under the Corporation and remove the property and
effects of both or either (forcibly if necessary) without being guilty of any
manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or
preceding breach of covenant. The City may take whatever action at law or in
equity which may appear necessary or desirable to collect rent then due and
thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any
obligation, agreement or covenant of the Corporation under this Lease, and in
all events, the City shall take such action as directed to by the Owners of a
majority of the Bonds.
SECTION 12.3. SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS. The Corporation covenants and
agrees with the City and Bondowners that its obligations under this Lease shall
survive the cancellation and termination of this Lease, for any cause, and that
the Corporation shall continue to pay the Basic Rent and Additional Rent and
perform all other obligations provided for in this Lease, all at the time or
times provided in this Lease; provided, however, that upon the payment of all
Basic Rent and Additional Rent required under ARTICLE V hereof, and upon the
satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture under SECTION 1301 thereof, the
Corporation's obligation under this Lease shall thereupon cease and terminate in
full.
-27-
SECTION 12.4. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY. Notwithstanding
anything contained to the contrary in this Lease, it is agreed that the City
will look only to the Corporation's interest in and to the Project and any
sublease with respect thereto for the collection of any judgment (or other
judicial process) requiring the payment of money or the making of any
performance by the Corporation in the event of a breach or default under this
Lease by the Corporation, and no other property or assets of the Corporation or
its officers, shareholders, partners or principal, disclosed or undisclosed,
shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedures for the
satisfaction of any such judgment (or other judicial process).
SECTION 12.5. PERFORMANCE OF THE CORPORATION'S OBLIGATIONS BY THE CITY. If
the Corporation shall fail to keep or perform any of its obligations as provided
in this Lease in the making of any payment or performance of any obligation,
then the City, or the Trustee in the City's name, may (but shall not be
obligated so to do) upon the continuance of such failure on the Corporation's
part for 30 days after written notice of such failure is given the Corporation
by the City or the Trustee, and without waiving or releasing the Corporation
from any obligation hereunder, as an additional but not exclusive remedy, make
any such payment or perform any such obligation, and all reasonable sums so paid
by the City or the Trustee and all necessary incidental reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by the City or the Trustee in performing such obligations
shall be deemed Additional Rent and shall be paid to the City or the Trustee on
demand, and if not so paid by the Corporation, the City or the Trustee shall
have the same rights and remedies provided for in SECTION 12.2 hereof in the
case of default by the Corporation in the payment of Basic Rent.
SECTION 12.6. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The rights and remedies
reserved by the City and the Corporation hereunder and those provided by law
shall be construed as cumulative and continuing rights. No one of them shall be
exhausted by the exercise thereof on one or more occasions. The City and the
Corporation shall each be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or
other equitable relief for any breach or threatened breach of any of the
provisions of this Lease, notwithstanding availability of an adequate remedy at
law, and each party hereby waives the right to raise such defense in any
proceeding in equity.
SECTION 12.7. WAIVER OF BREACH. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or
agreement herein contained shall operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach of
the same covenant or agreement or as a waiver of any breach of any other
covenant or agreement, and in case of a breach by the Corporation of any
covenant, agreement or undertaking by the Corporation, the City may nevertheless
accept from the Corporation any payment or payments hereunder without in any way
waiving City's right to exercise any of its rights and remedies provided for
herein with respect to any such breach or breaches of the Corporation which were
in existence at the time such payment or payments were accepted by the City.
SECTION 12.8. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS UNDER SECTION 12.1; OPPORTUNITY OF
CORPORATION TO CURE DEFAULTS.
(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no default specified
in SECTION 12.1(c) through (e) shall constitute an Event of Default until actual
notice of such default by registered or certified mail shall be given by the
Trustee or by the Owners of 25% in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds
Outstanding to the Corporation and the Corporation shall have had 30 days after
receipt of such notice to correct said default or cause said default to be
corrected, and shall not have corrected said default or caused said default to
be corrected within such period; provided, however, if any such default shall be
such that it cannot be corrected within such period, it shall not constitute an
Event of Default if corrective action is instituted by the Corporation within
such period and diligently pursued until the default is corrected.
-28-
(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no default specified
in SECTION 12.1(b) shall constitute an Event of Default until actual notice of
such default by registered or certified mail shall be given (i) at any time the
Corporation is the Owner of 100% in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds
Outstanding, by the Owner of 100% in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds
Outstanding, and (ii) at any time the Corporation is not the Owner of 100% in
aggregate principal amount of all Bonds Outstanding, the Trustee or by the
Owners of 25% in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds Outstanding, to the
Corporation and the Corporation shall have had 30 days after receipt of such
notice to correct said default or cause said default to be corrected, and shall
not have corrected said default or caused said default to be corrected within
such period; provided, however, if any such default shall be such that it cannot
be corrected within such period, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if
corrective action is instituted by the Corporation within such period and
diligently pursued until the default is corrected.
(c) With regard to any alleged default concerning which notice is given to
the Corporation under the provisions of this Section, the City hereby grants the
Corporation full authority for account of the City to perform any covenant or
obligation, the nonperformance of which is alleged in said notice to constitute
a default, in the name and stead of the City, with full power to do any and all
things and acts to the same extent that the City could do and perform any such
things and acts in order to remedy such default.
SECTION 12.9. TRUSTEE'S EXERCISE OF THE CITY'S REMEDIES. Whenever any
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may, but
except as otherwise provided in the Indenture shall not be obliged to, exercise
any or all of the rights of the City under this Article, upon notice as required
of the City unless the City has already given the required notice. In addition,
the Trustee shall have available to it all of the remedies prescribed by the
Indenture.
ARTICLE XIII
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE
SECTION 13.1. ASSIGNMENT; SUBLEASE.
(a) The Corporation shall have the right to assign, transfer, encumber or
dispose of this Lease or any interest therein or part thereof, with the written
consent of the City, for any lawful purpose under the Act. With respect to any
assignment, the Corporation shall comply with the following conditions:
(1) Such assignment shall be in writing, duly executed and
acknowledged by the assignor and in proper form for recording;
(2) Such assignment shall include the entire then unexpired term of
this Lease;
(3) A duplicate original of such assignment shall be delivered to
the City within ten (10) days after the execution thereof, together with
an assumption agreement, duly executed and acknowledged by the assignee in
proper form for recording, by which the assignee shall assume all of the
terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease on the part of the
Corporation to be performed and observed; and
(4) At the time of any such assignment there shall be no damage or
destruction to the Project which has not been repaired, restored and
replaced in accordance with the provisions of this
-29-
Lease, unless any funds then held by the Corporation for the purposes of
such repair, restoration and replacement are simultaneously transferred to
the assignee.
Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, the assignor
shall be relieved of all further liability occurring on and after the effective
date of such assignment. The consent of the City to any assignment, transfer,
encumbrance or disposition described in this subsection (a) shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(b) The Corporation shall have the right, with the written consent of the
City, to sublet all of the Project to a single entity for any lawful purpose
under the Act. The Corporation shall have the right, without the consent of the
City, to sublet any part of the Project to more than one entity in the ordinary
course of its business for any lawful purpose under the Act. No sublease of the
Project shall release or discharge the Corporation from its primary liability
for the payment of the Basic Rent and Additional Rent hereunder and the
performance of each and all of the covenants and agreements herein contained,
and its duties and obligations under this Lease shall continue as if no such
sublease had been made. The Corporation shall, within 10 days after the delivery
thereof, furnish or cause to be furnished to the City and the Trustee a true and
correct copy of each such sublease. Any sublease may provide, at the
Corporation's option, that the City's consent shall not be required in respect
of any further subletting thereunder if such further subletting is for a similar
purpose as the original sublease and is for a purpose permissible under the Act.
If for any reason this Lease and the leasehold estate of the Corporation
hereunder is terminated by the City by summary proceedings or otherwise in
accordance with the terms of this Lease, the City covenants and agrees that such
termination of this Lease shall not result in a termination of any sublease
affecting the Project or any part or parts thereof and that they shall all
continue for the duration of their respective terms and any extensions thereof
as a direct lease between the City hereunder and the sublessee thereunder, with
the same force and effect as if the City hereunder had originally entered into
such sublease as landlord thereunder. Any such sublessee shall not be named or
joined in any action or proceeding by the City under this Lease to recover
possession of the Project or for any other relief if such sublessee is not then
in default under the terms of its sublease beyond any applicable grace period
for curing the same. The City shall, upon request, execute, acknowledge and
deliver such agreements evidencing and agreeing to the foregoing in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation.
Any consent of the City required by this subsection (b) shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.
SECTION 13.2. ASSIGNMENT OF REVENUES BY CITY. The City shall assign and
pledge any rents, revenues and receipts receivable under this Lease, to the
Trustee pursuant to the Indenture as security for payment of the principal of,
interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds and the Corporation hereby consents
to such pledge and assignment.
SECTION 13.3. PROHIBITION AGAINST FEE MORTGAGE OF PROJECT. The City shall
not mortgage its fee interest in the Project, but may assign its interest in and
pledge any moneys receivable under this Lease to the Trustee pursuant to the
Indenture as security for payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds.
SECTION 13.4. RESTRICTIONS ON SALE OR ENCUMBRANCE OF PROJECT BY CITY.
During the Lease Term, the City agrees that, except to secure the Bonds to be
issued pursuant to the Indenture, it will not sell, assign, encumber, mortgage,
transfer or convey the Project or any interest therein.
