SECTION 1
---------
USE OF THE LEASED PREMISES
--------------------------
(a) Lessor, in consideration of the rents to be paid and covenants
herein contained, hereby leases to Lessee the Leased Premises.
(b) Lessee may use the Leased Premises for the operation of its radio
station, and, in connection therewith, for the installation, repair,
maintenance, operation, housing and removal of its Improvements and other
related broadcasting equipment (together comprising the "Installations"). Lessee
is fully familiar with the physical condition of the Land and has received the
same in good order and condition, and agrees that the Land complies in all
respects with all requirements of this Agreement. Lessee shall use the Land
exclusively for purposes associated with the operation of a radio station.
(c) Lessee shall have the right from time to time to substitute
Installations of similar kind and character for those hereinabove specified,
provided such changes shall be approved in advance by Lessor, and Lessor shall
not unreasonably delay or withhold its approval. In the event Lessee submits any
such changes for Lessor's approval and Lessor does not respond within thirty
(30) days after Lessor's receipt thereof, then such changes shall be deemed
approved by Lessor, so long as such changes otherwise comply with this
Agreement, five (5) days after Lessor's receipt of notice that it has not
responded.
(d) Lessee shall have access to the Leased Premises twenty-four (24)
hours per day, seven (7) days per week, for the purpose of installing,
maintaining and repairing its Installations, provided that the contractors
performing such work are reasonably acceptable to Lessor.
(e) Lessor shall not be responsible for repairs or maintenance to the
Installations, except for repairs occasioned by the negligence of Lessor, its
agents, employees or contractors.
(f) During the Term (as hereinafter defined), Lessor and Lessee shall
each provide the other with a telephone number which, if called will ring at a
location that is staffed by their respective agents twenty-four (24) hours each
and every day, seven (7) days each and every week; and Lessor and Lessee shall
notify each other promptly in the event of any change in such telephone number.
(g) Lessee shall not use or permit the Leased Premises to be used by
any dangerous, toxic, noxious or offensive trade or business, or for any
unlawful purpose.
(h) Lessee shall not directly or indirectly create or permit to be
created or to remain, and will discharge any mortgage, lien, security interest,
encumbrance or charge on, pledge of or conditional sale or other title retention
agreement with respect to the Real Property or any part thereof or Lessee's
interest therein other than (i) this Agreement, (ii) any lien, including a
mortgage on the leasehold interest of Lessee, which may be approved by the
Lessor in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, (iii)
liens for impositions not yet payable, or payable without the addition of any
fine, penalty, interest or cost for non-payment, or being contested as permitted
by Paragraph 3(d), below, and (iv) liens of mechanics, materialmen, suppliers or
vendors, or rights thereto, incurred in the ordinary course of business for sums
which under the terms of the related contracts are not at the time due, provided
that adequate provision for the payment thereof shall have been made.
SECTION 2
---------
TERM AND RENT
-------------
(a) The term of this Lease (the "Term") shall commence on August 22,
1994 (the "Commencement Date"), and shall expire on August 21, 2004 (the
"Expiration Date"). If the Term has been extended as provided in subparagraph
(b), below, the Expiration Date shall be the last day of the Term as so
extended.
(b) Lessee shall have the option, if Lessee is not at the time in
default under this Agreement, to extend the Term of this Agreement for up to two
(2) successive periods of five (5) years each (the "Extended Terms"), and,
except as set forth in subparagraph (c), below, on the same terms, covenants and
conditions herein contained. The word "Term" as used in this Agreement shall be
deemed to include the Extended Terms when and if the Agreement is extended. Each
option to extend the Term shall be exercised only by Lessee's delivery to Lessor
by United States mail on or before ninety (90) days prior to the commencement of
the renewal term of written notice of Lessee's election to extend as provided
herein.
(c) Lessee agrees to pay rent to Lessor from the Commencement Date
through the Expiration Date, or such earlier date as this Agreement is
terminated as provided herein, at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxx, XX
00000, Attn: Accounting, or to such other person or place as Lessor may
designate from time to time by notice to Lessee, in the following amounts and in
the following manner:
(i) During the first year beginning with the Commencement
Date Lessee shall pay a base rent of TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS ($24,000) per
annum, in equal monthly installments of TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,000) (the "Base
Rent") in advance on the first day of each month; and thereafter on each and
every Adjustment Date (hereinafter defined) the monthly rent shall be computed
according to subparagraph (ii) below.
(ii) The term "Adjustment Date" shall mean the first (1st)
through the ninth (9th) anniversaries of the Commencement Date. During the one
(1) year period beginning with each Adjustment Date, the monthly rent payable by
Lessee shall reflect an adjustment, as herein provided, for an increase, if any,
in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, All Items, U.S. Cities
Average [Base Year 1982/84=100] ("CPI") published by the United States
Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, as measured in February of each
year; i.e., during the one (1) year period beginning with the Adjustment Date,
the monthly rent shall be the product obtained by multiplying the Base Rent
times a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the CPI for February of the
year in which the Adjustment Date falls and the denominator of which shall be
the CPI for February of the year in which the Commencement Date falls.
Notwithstanding the results of the foregoing calculation, the monthly amount
payable by Lessee hereunder shall not in any event be less than the monthly
rental paid during the immediately preceding one (1) year period. In the event
that the Bureau of Labor Statistics shall change the base period for the CPI,
the new index number shall be substituted for the old index numbers in making
the above computation. In the event the Bureau of Labor Statistics ceases
publishing the CPI, or materially changes the method of its computation, Lessor
and Lessee shall accept comparable statistics on the purchasing power of the
consumer dollar as published at the time of said discontinuation or change by a
responsible financial periodical of recognized authority to be then chosen by
Lessor subject to reasonable consent of Lessee.
(d) Rent and all other sums payable to Lessor hereunder shall be paid
without notice, demand, counterclaim, set-off, deduction or defense and without
abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction. Except as expressly
provided herein, Lessee waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute
or otherwise to quit, terminate or surrender this Agreement or the Real Property
or any part thereof, or to any abatement, suspension, deferment,
diminution or reduction of rent or any other sum payable by Lessee hereunder.
SECTION 3
---------
CHARGES AND UTILITIES
---------------------
(a) Lessee, at its sole expense, shall keep the Real Property and the
adjoining streets and ways in good and clean order and condition and will
promptly make all necessary or appropriate repairs, replacements and renewals
thereof, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or
extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen. All repairs, replacements and renewals
shall be equal in quality and class to the original work. Lessee waives any
right created by any law now or hereafter in force to make repairs to the Real
Property at Lessor's expense. Lessee, at its sole expense, shall do or cause
others to do every act necessary or appropriate for the preservation and safety
of the Real Property whether or not the Lessor shall be required by any legal
requirement to take such action or be liable for failure to do so.
(b) If not at the time in default under this Agreement, Lessee, at its
sole expense, may make reasonable alterations of and additions to the
Improvements or any part thereof, provided that any alteration or addition (i)
shall not change the general character of the Improvements, or reduce the fair
market value thereof below their value immediately before such alteration or
addition, or impair their usefulness, (ii) is effected with due diligence, in a
good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all legal requirements and
insurance requirements, (iii) is promptly and fully paid for by Lessee, (iv) is
made, in case the estimated cost of such alteration or addition exceeds Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000), under the supervision of an architect or engineer
satisfactory to Lessor and in accordance with plans, specifications and cost
estimates approved by Lessor, and (v) does not interfere with Lessor's rights of
use under this Agreement.
(c) Subject to subparagraph (d), below, relating to contests, Lessee
shall pay all taxes, assessments (including without limitation, all assessments
for public improvements or benefits, whether or not commenced or completed prior
to the date hereof and whether or not to be completed within the Term hereof),
ground rents, water, sewer or similar rents, rates and charges, excises, levies,
license fees, permit fees, inspection fees and other authorization fees and
other charges in each case, whether general or special, ordinary or
extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, of every character (including all
interest and penalties thereof), which at any time during or in respect of the
Term hereof may be assessed, levied, confirmed or imposed on or in respect of or
be a lien upon the Real Property or any part thereof or any rent therefrom or
any estate, right or interest therein, or any occupancy, use or possession of or
activity conducted on the Real Property or any part thereof, other than any
income or excess profits tax imposed upon the Lessor's general income or
revenues, but excluding any income or excess profits or franchise taxes of
Lessor determined on the basis of general income or revenue or any interest or
penalties in respect thereof. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor for inspection
within thirty (30) days after written request, official receipts of the
appropriate taxing authority or other proof satisfactory to Lessor evidencing
such payment. If by law any such amount may be paid in installments, Lessee
shall be obligated to pay only those installments as they become due from time
to time before any interest, penalty, fine or cost may be added thereto; and any
such amount relating to the
fiscal period of the taxing authority, part of which is included within the Term
and a part of which extends beyond the Term shall, if Lessee shall not be in
default under this Agreement, be apportioned between Lessee and Lessor as of the
expiration of the Term of this Agreement.
(d) Lessee, at its sole expense, may contest, after prior written
notice to Lessor, by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and
with due diligence, the amount or validity or application, in whole or in part,
of any tax, lien or other imposition on the Real Property, provided that (i)
Lessee shall first make all contested payments, under protest if it desires,
(ii) neither the Real Property nor any part thereof or interest therein nor any
such rents or other sums would be in any danger of being sold, forfeited, lost
or interfered with, and (iii) Lessee shall have furnished such security, if any,
as may be required in the proceedings or reasonably requested by Lessor.
(e) Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for all public or
private utility services and all sprinkler systems and protective services at
any time rendered to or in connection with the Real Property or any part
thereof, will comply with all contracts relating to any such services, and will
do all other things required for the maintenance and continuance of all such
services.

additional named insured (i) general public liability insurance, insuring Lessor
against any and all liability or claims or liability arising out of, occasioned
by or resulting from any accident or other occurrence in or about the Real
Property arising out of any act or omission of Lessee or any officer, employee,
agent or contractor of Lessee, for injuries to any person or persons, with

damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a

time included under "extended coverage" policies, in an amount equal to at least
One Hundred Percent (100%) of the full replacement value of the Improvements

compensation or other insurance against liability arising from claims of workers
in respect of and during the period of any work on or about the Real Property;
and (iv) insurance against such other hazards and in such amounts as is
customarily carried by owners and operators of similar properties, and as Lessor
may reasonably require for its protection. Lessee shall comply with such other
requirements as Lessor, or any mortgagee, may from time to time reasonably
request for the protection by insurance of their respective interests. The
policy or policies of insurance maintained by Lessee pursuant to this Paragraph
shall be of a company or companies authorized to do business in California and a
certificate thereof shall be delivered
to Lessor, together with evidence of the payment of the premiums therefor, not

the date when Lessee shall enter upon the Leased Premises, whichever occurs
sooner. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration or termination date
of any policy, Lessee shall deliver a certificate of a renewal or replacement
policy with proof of the payment of the premium therefor. Any such insurance
required by this Paragraph may, at Lessee's option, be provided through a
blanket policy or policies.
(b) Lessee shall indemnify Lessor and hold Lessor harmless from and
against all claims, actions, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by or asserted against Lessor,
whether during or after the Term of this Agreement, including by reason of
personal injury, loss of life, or damage to property, caused by or resulting
from in whole or any material part, (i) any breach of this Agreement by Lessee,
(ii) any negligent or intentional act or omission of Lessee, its employees,
agents, invitees or contractors, whether in, on, about or with respect to the
Leased Premises or otherwise, (iii) the use by Lessee of any part of the Leased
Premises, (iv) any work undertaken by or at the request of Lessee on or about
the Leased Premises, (v) any other activity undertaken by or at the request of
Lessee pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, or (vi) the presence of
any individuals on the Leased Premises as a result of Lessee's request or this
Agreement; provided, however, that Lessee shall not be required to indemnify
Lessor for any damages, injury, loss or expense arising out of Lessor's or its
agents', employees', invitees' or contractors' negligent acts or omissions.
(c) If Lessor so elects by notice to Lessee, Lessee shall have the
obligation of defending, at its sole cost and expense, by counsel selected by
Lessee and approved by Lessor (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld),
against any claim to which the foregoing indemnity may apply. Lessor may assume,
or require that such defense be assumed, by Lessor and counsel selected by
Lessor, at the cost and expense of Lessee if Lessor is for any reason
dissatisfied with the defense by Lessee, or believes that its interests would be
better served thereby. In any case where Lessee is defending any such claim,
Lessor may participate in the defense thereof by counsel selected by it, but at
Lessor's expense. Lessee shall not enter into any settlement of any claim
without the consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) Lessor shall indemnify Lessee and hold Lessee harmless from and
against all claims, actions, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by or asserted against Lessee,
whether during or after the Term of this Agreement, including by reason of
personal injury, loss of life, or damage to property, caused by or resulting
from in whole or any material part, (i) any breach of this Agreement by Lessor,
(ii) any negligent or intentional act or omission of Lessor, its employees,
agents, invitees or contractors, whether in, on, about or with respect to the
Leased Premises or otherwise, (iii) the use by Lessor of any part of the Leased
Premises, (iv) any work undertaken by or at the request of Lessor on or about
the Leased Premises, (v) any other activity undertaken by or at the request of
Lessor pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, or (vi) the presence of
any individuals on the Leased Premises as a result of Lessor's request or this
Agreement; provided, however, that Lessor shall not be required to indemnify
Lessee for any damages, injury, loss or expense arising out of Lessee's or its
agents', employees', invitees' or contractors' negligent acts or omissions.
(e) If Lessee so elects by notice to Lessor, Lessor shall have the
obligation of defending, at its sole cost and expense, by counsel selected by
Lessor and approved by Lessee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld),
against any claim to which the foregoing indemnity may apply. Lessee may assume,
or require that such defense be assumed, by Lessee and counsel selected by
Lessee, at the cost and expense of Lessor if Lessee is for any reason
dissatisfied with the defense by Lessor, or believes that its interests would be
better served thereby. In any case where Lessor is defending any such claim,
Lessee may participate in the defense thereof by counsel selected by it, but at
Lessee's expense. Lessor shall not enter into any settlement of any claim
without the consent of Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed so as to authorize or
permit any insurer of Lessor or Lessee to be subrogated to any right of Lessor
or Lessee against the other. Each of Lessor and Lessee hereby releases the other
to the extent of its insurance coverage for any loss or damage caused by fire or
any of the extended coverage casualties, even if such fire or other casualty
shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party or persons
for whose acts said party is liable.

SECTION 6
---------
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
-----------------
(a) Any of the following events shall constitute a default on the part
of Lessee:
(i) The failure of Lessee to pay rent or additional rent,
and continuation of such failure for more than ten (10) days after Lessee's
receipt of written notice thereof from Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor
shall not be required to provide such written notice to Lessee more than twice
in any twelve (12) month period prior to declaring such failure to pay an event
of default; or
(ii) The failure of Lessee to cure any other default under
the terms hereof, and continuation of such failure to cure for more than thirty
(30) days after notice by Lessor, provided, however, that if the nature of
Lessee's default is such that more than thirty (30) days is required for its
cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee has commenced
such cure within the thirty (30) day period, demonstrates to Lessor's reasonable
satisfaction that such default is curable and thereafter diligently prosecutes
such cure to completion; or
(iii) Lessee is finally and without further right of appeal or
review, adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or has a receiver appointed for all
or substantially all of its business or assets on the ground of its insolvency,
or has a trustee appointed for it after a petition has been filed for Lessee's
reorganization under the Bankruptcy Act of the United States, or any future law
of the United States having the same general purpose, or if Lessee shall make an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or if Lessee's interest hereunder
shall be levied upon or attached, which levy or attachment shall not be removed
within twenty (20) days from the date thereof.
(b) If an event of default on the part of Lessee shall occur at any
time, Lessor, at its election, may give Lessee a notice of termination
specifying a day not less than thirty (30) days thereafter on which the Term of
this Agreement shall end, unless such default shall be cured within said period,
or, if the default is such that more than thirty (30) days is required for its
cure, unless Lessee has commenced such cure within said period. If such notice
is given, the Agreement shall expire on the day so specified as fully and
completely as if that day were the day herein originally fixed for such
expiration, and Lessee shall then quit and surrender the Leased Premises to
Lessor, but Lessee shall remain liable for the payment of rent during the full
period which would otherwise constitute the balance of the Term of this
Agreement; and without prejudice to any other right or remedy which it may have
hereunder or by law, and notwithstanding any waiver of any prior breach of
condition or event of default hereunder, Lessor may re-enter the Leased Premises
either by reasonable force or otherwise, or dispossess Lessee, any legal
representative of Lessee or other occupant of the Leased Premises by appropriate
suit, action or proceeding and remove its effects and hold the Leased Premises
as if
this Agreement had not been made.
(c) The failure of Lessor to cure any default under the terms hereof,
and continuation of such failure to cure for more than thirty (30) days after
notice by Lessee, shall constitute a default on the part of Lessor; provided,
however, that if the nature of Lessor's default is such that more than thirty
(30) days is required for its cure, then Lessor shall not be deemed to be in
default if Lessor has commenced such cure within the thirty (30) day period,
demonstrates to Lessee's reasonable satisfaction that such default is curable
and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(d) If an event of default on the part of Lessor shall occur at any
time, Lessee, at its election, may give Lessor a notice of termination
specifying a day not less than thirty (30) days thereafter on which the Term of
this Agreement shall end, unless such default shall be cured within said period,
or, if the default is such that more than thirty (30) days is required for its
cure, unless Lessor has commenced such cure within said period. If such notice
is given, the Agreement shall expire on the day so specified as fully and
completely as if that day were the day herein originally fixed for such
expiration, and Lessee shall then quit and surrender the Leased Premises to
Lessor, and Lessee shall not be liable for payment of rent for any period after
such expiration.
SECTION 7
---------
ASSIGNMENT
----------
