Exhibit A
LEASE
-----
THIS LEASE is made and entered into as of the 1st day of March, 1983, by
and between XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXX III and XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXX, not individually but
solely as co-Trustees of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx 1983 Family Trust, hereinafter
referred to as "Landlord", and SALEM MEDIA OF TEXAS, INC., a Texas corporation,
hereinafter referred to as "Tenant", with reference to the following recitals of
facts:
RECITALS:
---------
A. Landlord purchased the property on February 22, 1983.
B. The parties desire to enter into this Lease which shall contain all of
the rights and obligations of the parties to each other with respect to the
subject property.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following covenants, agreements,
conditions and representations, the parties agree as follows:
1. Property Leased. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby
---------------
rents from Landlord on the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set
forth, those certain premises and appurtenances located at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx,
Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx, being an approximately thirty-five and
one-half (35.5) acre tract of land and more fully described on Exhibit A
attached hereto (the "premises"). Tenant acknowledges that portions of the
property are unimproved, and that Landlord shall have the right to lease such
portions of the property for any lawful purpose and, if Landlord so desires, to
subdivide portions of
the property and sell such portions, as long as Landlord's other leasing
activities do not interfere with the operation of Tenant's radio station,
transmission equipment and the directional array ground system.
Landlord agrees to indemnify Tenant for any damage or injury caused by
other tenants to the radio station, transmitting equipment and directional array
ground system and to promptly correct the same upon demand.
2. Term. The term of this Lease is twenty-four (24) years, commencing
----
on March 1, 1983, and terminating on February 28, 2007.
3. Use. The premises shall be used to operate a radio station,
---
including but not limited to, use as a radio studio, operation of a directional
antenna system including a transmitter for use by the radio station, and for
such uses as are incidental or customarily related thereto. The premises shall
not be used for any other purposes without Tenant first obtaining the written
consent of Landlord thereto, which consent the Landlord agrees shall not be
unreasonably or arbitrarily withheld or delayed.
4. Rent. Tenant shall pay rent to Landlord during the term of this
----
Lease as follows:
4.1 During the period March 1, 1983 through February 28, 1988, the
amount of One Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($1,750.00) per month (the
"Base Rent").
4.2 During the period March 1, 1988 through February 28, 1993, a monthly
amount equal to the greater of (i) Two Thousand Twelve and 50/100 Dollars
($2,012.50) or (ii) the Base Rent multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the cost of living index figure (as hereinafter defined) for
February, 1988, and the denominator of which
-2-
shall be the cost of living index figure for February, 1983 (the "Base Index").
4.3 During the period March 1, 1993, through February 28, 1998, a monthly
amount equal to the greater of (i) Two Thousand Two Hundred Seventy-five Dollars
($2,275.00) or (ii) the Base Rent multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the cost of living index figure for February, 1993, and the
denominator of which shall be the Base Index.
4.4 During the period March 1, 1998, through February 28, 2003, a
monthly amount equal to the greater of (i) Two Thousand Five Hundred
Thirty-seven and 50/100 Dollars ($2,537.50), or (ii) the Base Rent multiplied by
a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the cost of living index figure for
February, 1998, and the denominator of which shall be the Base Index.
4.5 During the period March 1, 2003, through February 28, 2007, a monthly
amount equal to the greater of (i) Two Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars
($2,800.00) or (ii) the Base Rent multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the cost of living index figure for February, 2003, and the
denominator of which shall be the Base Index.
4.6 For purposes of this Lease, the "cost of living index figure" shall
be the index number in the column for "all items" in the table entitled
"Consumer Price Index-U.S. Cities Average," published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the United Stated Department of Labor in the "Monthly Labor
Review." In the event that the Bureau of Labor Statistics shall change the base
period (1967 equals 100), 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
-3-
publishing the Consumer Price Index, or materially changes the method of its
computation, Landlord and Tenant shall accept comparable statistics on the
purchasing power of the consumer dollar as published at the time of said
discontinuation of change by a responsible financial periodical of recognized
authority to be then chosen by Landlord subject to reasonable consent of Tenant.
4.7 Rent shall be payable in lawful money of the United States to Landlord
at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, on the first day
of each month.
5. Taxes and Assessments. Landlord shall pay all real property taxes,
---------------------
governmental special assessments and land benefit charges levied against the
real property leased to Tenant herein. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all
general and special taxes, licenses, fees, charges or taxes imposed by any
governmental entity by reason of the Lease, Tenant's occupation or use of the
leased premises or Tenant's activities thereon. In addition, Tenant shall pay
all taxes levied against the personal property of Tenant or improvements
installed by Tenant becoming a part of the real property of every description,
maintained on and used by Tenant in connection with the leased premises. All of
such charges, costs, and expenses shall constitute additional rent, and upon the
failure of Tenant to pay any of such costs, charges or expenses, Landlord shall
have the same rights and remedies as otherwise provided in this Lease for the
failure of Tenant to pay rent.
6. Improvements. The term "improvements" as used herein means any
------------
improvement, addition or change to the leased premises, any alteration of the
leased premises, or anything placed, installed or constructed in, on or upon the
leased premises, whether or not
-4-
characterized by law as a fixture, but does not include Tenant's personal
property.
Tenant shall not make, or permit to be made any structural improvements or
alterations, in, on, or to the leased premises or any part thereof without the
prior written consent of Landlord. Any improvements made in, on, or to the
leased premises shall be at the sole expense of Tenant and any additions to or
alterations of said premises shall become at once a part of the realty and
belong to Landlord. Tenant shall keep the premises and the property in which
they are situated free from any liens arising out of any work performed on the
leased premises, by or on behalf of Tenant, for material furnished to the leased
premises, or for obligations incurred by Tenant. In making any alteration that
Tenant has a right to make, Tenant shall not commence such improvement or
alteration until three (3) days after Landlord has received notice from Tenant
stating the date of commencement of the improvement or alteration so that
Landlord can post and record any appropriate notice of nonresponsibility. All
alterations shall be completed with due diligence.
If any installation, alteration or improvement is required by law by any
governmental authority, Tenant shall at Tenant's cost and expense promptly make
such installation, alteration or improvement.
Provided Tenant is not in default or in breach of this Lease beyond the
expiration of any applicable grace periods, Tenant may during the term of this
Lease, and shall immediately upon the expiration of this Lease, remove from the
leased premises all of Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures and such
other property which Landlord may during the term of this Lease agree or
acknowledge in writing are improvements belonging to Tenant.
-5-
7. Maintenance and Upkeep. By entry hereunder, Tenant accepts the
----------------------
premises as being in good and sanitary order, condition and repair. Tenant shall
at Tenant's own cost and expense keep the entire property, including the outside
areas and landscaping, in a clean, neat, sanitary and sightly condition at all
times and free from dirt, debris, accumulation of waste and fire hazards. Tenant
shall upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease surrender to
Landlord the leased premises and appurtenances thereto in a good, sanitary
order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted.
8. Repairs. Tenant shall at its sole cost and expense maintain the
-------
leased premises in good condition and shall make all necessary repairs thereto,
whether or not structural in nature.
9. Indemnification; Liability Insurance. Tenant shall save and hold
------------------------------------
harmless, indemnify and defend Landlord from any damage or liability arising out
of or relating to any death, bodily injury, or property damage resulting from,
or in connection with, the acts of, or the maintenance, use, or occupation of
the leased premises by Tenant, Tenant's agents, servants, employees,
contractors, or patrons. Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, carry
public liability insurance with liability limits of not less than $1,000,000.00
for the injury or death of one person and not less than $2,000,000.00 for the
injury or death of more than one person in any one accident and property damage
insurance in an amount of not less than $300,000.00 liability. Tenant shall not
be responsible for the negligence of the Landlord, or their agents, servants,
employees, contractors, patrons or invitees. All such insurance shall be carried
with insurance companies satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant may provide
certification of insurance under its blanket insurance policies in
-6-
satisfaction of this requirement. Said insurance shall name Landlord as a
co-insured or an additional insured. Tenant shall furnish, or cause to be
furnished to Landlord, upon request, certificates of insurance from the
insurance carrier stating that such insurance is in full force and effect, that
the premiums thereon have been paid and that the insurance carrier will give
Landlord at least ten (10) days prior written notice of any termination,
cancellation, or modification of such insurance.
10. Fire Insurance. Through the term of this Lease, Tenant shall maintain
--------------
at its sole cost and expense, fire and extended coverage insurance on the
premises and the appurtenances being leased by Tenant, insuring the premises for
not less than ninety percent (90%) of its replacement value. Landlord and Tenant
shall be named as loss payees as their interests shall appear and, on Landlord's
demand, Tenant shall also include the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust
encumbering the fee as a loss payee to the extent of that mortgagee's interest.
Tenant shall furnish, or cause to be furnished to Landlord, upon request,
certificates of insurance from the insurance carrier stating that such insurance
is in full force and effect, that the premiums have been paid and that the
insurance carrier will give Landlord at least ten (10) days prior written notice
of any termination, cancellation or modification of such insurance. Tenant may
provide a certificate of insurance under its blanket insurance policies in
satisfaction of this requirement.
If Tenant fails or refused to procure or maintain said fire or liability
insurance as required by this Lease or fails or refuses to furnish Landlord with
the required proof that the insurance has been procured and is in force and paid
for, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord's option upon five (5) days
written notice, to procure and
-7-
maintain such insurance. The premium paid by Landlord shall be treated as
additional rent due and payable immediately. Landlord shall give prompt notice
of the payment of such premiums, stating the amounts paid and the insurer or
insurers, and interest shall run from the date of the notice.
11. Assignment and Subletting. Tenant shall not assign this Lease or
-------------------------
any interest therein, and shall not sublet said premises or any part thereof, or
any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or allow any other person (the
agents, contractors, permittees, invitees and employees of Tenant excepted) to
occupy or use said premises, or any portion thereof, without the prior written
consent of Landlord. In the event Landlord grants such consent, Tenant shall
remain liable under the terms of this Lease. Landlord agrees that it shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to an assignment of this Lease. The
test of reasonableness for the withholding of Landlord's consent to the
assignment of the Lease shall not necessarily be the same as the test applied by
the FCC in deciding whether to approve the sale of Tenant's radio station.
A consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation, or use by another
person shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment,
subletting, occupation, or use by another person. Any assignment or subletting
without such consent of Landlord shall be void, and shall, at the option of
Landlord, terminate this Lease. This Lease shall not, nor shall any interest of
Tenant therein, be assignable by operation of law, without the written consent
of Landlord. Tenant may, without Landlord's consent, have the right to assign
this Lease to a corporation with which it may merge or consolidate or to a
purchaser of substantially all of Tenant's assets, if the assignee executes an
agreement assuming Tenant's obligations hereunder.
-8-
12. Utilities. Tenant shall pay for all utilities furnished to or
---------
delivered at the leased premises, including connection and installation charges
and shall make payments directly to the utility company furnishing same. Tenant
shall protect Landlord and save Landlord harmless from any liens arising out of
the nonpayment of its utility charges.
13. Entry by Owner; Inspection and Notices. Except as expressly provided
--------------------------------------
to the contrary herein, Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents to enter
into and upon said premises upon first giving reasonable notice, reasonable
notice being twenty-four (24) hours, for the purpose of inspecting the same or
for the purpose of making repairs, alterations, or additions to any portion of
said building to be made by Landlord upon Tenant's breach of its obligations to
maintain and repair the premises, including the erection and maintenance of such
scaffolding, canopies, fences and props as may be required, or for the purpose
of posting notices of non-responsibility for alterations, additions, or repairs,
or for the purpose of placing upon the property in which the said premises are
located any usual or ordinary "for sale" signs, or to show during the last
twelve (12) months of the term the premises to prospective future tenants,
without any rebate of rent and without any liability to Tenant for any loss of
occupation or quiet enjoyment of the premises occasioned thereby. Prior notice
is not required in the event of an emergency situation. Tenant shall permit
Landlord, at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the
Lease, to place upon said premises any usual or ordinary "to rent" or "to lease"
signs.
14. Waivers of Damages. Tenant as a material part of the consideration to
------------------
be rendered to Landlord, hereby waives all claims against
-9-
Landlord, except for Landlord's, its employees', contractors', invitees', agents
and servants' gross negligence or willful misconduct.
15. Destruction of Premises. In the event of a total or partial destruction
-----------------------
of the leased premises during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall forthwith
repair the same upon the receipt of insurance proceeds, provided such repairs
can be made within one hundred twenty (120) days under the applicable laws and
regulations. Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in such manner as is necessary
in order that the insurance proceeds payable under the insurance obtained under
Paragraph 10 are paid to Tenant as promptly as possible. Any such destruction
shall not annul or void this Lease; however, rent to be paid by Tenant hereunder
shall be equitably adjusted according to the amount and value of the undamaged
premises remaining. If such repairs cannot be made within one hundred twenty
(120) days, this Lease may be terminated at the option of Tenant. If the leased
premises are not rebuilt as provided herein, the insurance proceeds obtained
under Paragraph 10 shall belong to Landlord, except that Tenant shall be
entitled to that portion of the award, if any, attributable to the destruction
of Tenant's trade fixtures and personal property which Tenant had the right to
remove upon termination of this Lease.
16. Remedies Upon Default.
---------------------
(a) Landlord's Remedies. Except as otherwise provided herein, should
-------------------
Tenant default in the performance of any covenant or provision herein with
reference to the payment of rent or other payment of money, and such default
continues for five (5) days after receipt by Tenant of written notice from
Landlord of such default, or should Tenant default in the performance of any
other covenant or provision herein,
-10-
other than the payment of money, and such default, if curable, is not cured
within fifteen (15) days after service upon Tenant of a written notice thereof
from Landlord, or if not curable within fifteen (15) days, Tenant fails to
commence a cure within fifteen (15) days after service upon Tenant of a written
notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to
completion, Landlord may terminate Tenant's right of possession to the leased
premises and may recover from Tenant all of the damages to which Landlord is
entitled under the laws of the State of Texas.
None of Landlord's rights herein specified in the event of a default by
Tenant shall prejudice any other legal remedies available to Landlord other than
those herein enumerated.
(b) No Waiver. Efforts by Landlord to mitigate the damages caused by
---------
Tenant's breach of this Lease shall not waive Landlord's right to recover
damages under this paragraph. For the purpose of subparagraph (a) above, the
following shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right of possession:
(1) Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the
property; and
(2) Appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to protect
Landlord's interest under this Lease.
(c) Reentry. Upon a default of Tenant not cured within the time specified
-------
in subparagraph (a), or if Tenant abandons the premises, Landlord shall have the
right to reenter the leased premises and take possession thereof with or without
terminating the Lease upon giving the notice of reentry as required by law. Upon
such reentry, Landlord may (but is not obligated to do so) relet the leased
premises for the benefit
of the Landlord and Tenant on such terms and conditions and at such rental as
may then be reasonably available to Landlord. Such reletting shall not relieve
Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder unless the Lease is terminated
by Landlord by a written notice of termination served on Tenant.
17. Waste; Nuisance. Tenant shall not commit, or suffer to be committed,
---------------
any waste upon the said premises, nor cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in,
on or about the premises.
18. Compliance with Law. Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
-------------------
comply with all of the requirements of all Municipal, State and Federal
authorities now in force, or which may hereafter be in force, pertaining to the
said premises, and shall faithfully observe in the use of the premises all
Municipal ordinances and State and Federal statutes now in force or which may
hereafter be in force. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction,
after appeals have been taken or waived, or the admission of Tenant in any
action or proceeding against Tenant, whether Landlord is a party thereto or not,
that Tenant has violated any such ordinance or statute in the use of the
premises shall be conclusive of that fact as between Tenant and Landlord.
19. Attorneys' Fees. If either party employs an attorney or attorneys to
---------------
determine or enforce the provisions hereof, the prevailing party (whether by
negotiation, settlement or suit) shall be paid his reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses by the non-prevailing party.
20. Time. Time is of the essence of this Lease.
----
21. Condemnation. If the leased premises, or any part thereof, are taken by
------------
condemnation, or incident to the exercise of the power of eminent domain,
(hereinafter referred to as "condemnation") the following shall apply:
-12-
(a) Termination of Lease. If the entire leased premises are taken or
--------------------
acquired by condemnation this Lease shall terminate. Such termination shall take
effect as of the date taking becomes effective by passage of title to the leased
premises to the condemning authority pursuant to court order, or by the physical
taking of possession of the leased premises by the condemning authority,
whichever is earlier.
If only a portion of the leased premises is taken or acquired by or
incident to condemnation and a part thereof remains which in Landlord's opinion
can be used for the purpose specified in Paragraph 3 of this Lease without
compromising Tenant's activity or usability of the premises, this Lease shall,
except for the part actually taken, remain in full force and effect.
(b) Adjustment in Rent. If only a portion of the leased premises is
------------------
taken by condemnation and a part thereof remains which can be used for the
purposes specified in Paragraph 3 of this Lease, rent payable under this Lease
shall be equitably adjusted according to the amount and value of the leased
premises remaining for Tenant's use.
Such adjustment in rent shall take effect on the date title to the
condemned portion of the leased premises passes to the condemning authority
pursuant to court order or on the date the condemning authority takes physical
possession of the condemned leased property, whichever is earlier.
(c) Condemnation Award. All compensation paid for the land and
------------------
improvements taken, including severance damage, if any, shall belong to Landlord
except that Tenant shall be entitled to any relocation award specifically for
Tenant's benefit and such portion of the award attributable to Tenant's trade
fixtures and personalty, if any.
-13-
(d) Non-Liability of Landlord. Landlord, under no circumstances,
-------------------------
shall be or become liable for or on account of any damage to, loss of, or
interference with Tenant's business occasioned by any condemnation or threat
thereof.
22. Bankruptcy or Insolvency. It shall be a breach of this Lease and
------------------------
Landlord, at its option, upon giving written notice of termination to Tenant,
may terminate this Lease for any of the following events:
(a) Assignment of the Lease by operation of law;
(b) The appointment of a receiver to take possession of all or
substantially all of the assets of Tenant and the receiver is not discharged
within thirty (30) days after his appointment;
(c) A general assignment for benefit of creditors by Tenant;
(d) The filing of a voluntary petition or arrangement in
bankruptcy by Tenant;
(e) The filing of an involuntary petition or arrangement in
bankruptcy against Tenant and the same is not dismissed within sixty (60) days
from the date of filing; and
(f) Any other action taken or suffered by Tenant because of
Tenant's insolvency.
23. Use of Tower by Landlord. At all times during this Lease,
------------------------
Landlord shall have the right to use of the radio tower located on the leased
premises beginning at and including the location of antenna equipment used for
broadcasting the signal of KISS-FM and continuing downward therefrom for a
distance of thirty (30) feet; Landlord shall have no obligation to pay rent for
the use described above and may use the
