SECTION 17.06 WAIVER OF BREACH.
The waiver by City of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other term, covenant or condition, nor of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.

Third: The balance of the insurance proceeds shall be divided between Lessee and City based on the proportion that the value of Lessee’s interest in the Leased Premises for the balance of the term of the Lease bears to the value of City’s entire interest in the Leased Premises, including both City’s interest during the balance of the Lease term and City’s remainder interest after the term of the Lease expires.
4. Valuations for this purpose shall be based on the income method of valuation by determining the present value of the interests in the property on the basis of the future net income that it could have been expected to earn had the improvements not been partially or totally destroyed.
D. If, during the term, Lessee’s improvements are totally or partially destroyed from a risk not covered by the insurance described in this Lease nor actually covered by insurance, this Lease shall not terminate except as expressly provided herein, and Lessee shall restore Lessee’s improvements to substantially the same condition they were in immediately before destruction. However, if the cost of restoration exceeds seven and one-half percent (7-1/2%) of the then replacement value of Lessee’s total improvements, or if existing laws do not permit the restoration, then Lessee, with the prior consent of its lender, can elect to terminate this lease by giving notice to City.
E. Lessee acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement govern in the event that the Leased Premises are damaged or destroyed and accordingly Lessee waives its rights, if any, under California Civil Code Sections 1932 and 1933.
SECTION 18.02 TOTAL TAKING.
A. If the whole of the Leased Premises, or other improvements to be made by Lessee shall be taken by right of eminent domain or otherwise for any public or quasi-public use, then, when possession shall be taken thereunder by the condemnor, or the Lessee is deprived of its practical use of the Leased Premises, and other improvements, whichever date is earlier, this Lease and all rights of City and Lessee hereunder, shall terminate and any rent and all other payments required of Lessee shall be apportioned between the parties.
39
B. In the event of a partial taking, as a result of which the remaining portion of the Leased Premises, or any other improvements on the Leased Premises cannot be restored to an economically operable facility of a comparable kind and quality existing prior to the taking with the condemnation awards received by Lessee, then this Lease at Lessee’s option shall terminate as of the time when possession of the Leased Premises shall be taken by the condemnor or Lessee is deprived of its practical use thereof, whichever date is earlier.
SECTION 18.03 PARTIAL TAKING.
If a portion of the Leased Premises or any other improvements shall be taken by right of eminent domain or otherwise for any public or quasi-public use and the remaining portion of the Leased Premises and improvements can be restored by Lessee to an economically operable facility of comparable kind and quality to the facility existing prior to the taking, then this Lease shall not be affected and Lessee shall retain the remaining portion of the Leased Premises.
SECTION 18.04 EMINENT DOMAIN AWARD.
If there is a taking by right of eminent domain, the rights and obligations of the parties with reference to the award and the distribution thereof shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this section. Lessee shall have the right to participate in any settlement proceeding. The award shall be paid to City and Lessee and the award shall belong to the City except that Lessee shall receive from the award the following:
A. A sum attributable to the value of Lessee’s leasehold estate including improvements, which sum shall be first applied toward any outstanding balance due a Lessee’s lender to the extent that the taking affects the lender’s collateral;
B. A sum attributable to severance damages to be used solely for the restoration of the improvements upon the remainder of the Leased Premises; and
C. A sum attributable to loss of goodwill.

FORCE MAJEURE
SECTION 19.01 FORCE MAJEURE.
A. The term “force majeure” as used herein means acts of God; strikes, lockouts, or other industrial disturbances; acts of public enemy, blockades, wars, insurrections, or riots; epidemics; landslides, earthquakes, fires, storms, floods, or washouts; arrests, title disputes, or other litigation; governmental restraints, either federal or state, civil or military; civil disturbances; explosions; inability to obtain necessary materials, supplies, labor; inability to obtain timely approvals and inspections or permits due to administrative procedure, existing or future rules, regulations, orders, laws, or proclamations, either federal, state, city or county, civil or military; so long as the above causes or events are beyond the control of the affected party.
B. Should Lessee or City, during construction and/or operations be delayed in or prevented, in whole or in part, from performing any obligations or conditions hereunder or from exercising its rights by reason of or as a result of any force majeure, it shall be excused from performing such obligations or conditions during such period of delay or prevention. Should either party be delayed or prevented from performing any obligation or exercising any right hereunder for a period exceeding six (6) months by a force majeure event, the delayed party shall notify the other party of its plans and schedule to end such delay or prevention and of its plans and schedule to commence performance under the Lease.
C. If the City, for any reason outside of its control, cannot deliver possession of the Leased Premises to the Lessee at the commencement of the term of this Lease, Lessee shall have the option to terminate this Lease, but City shall not be liable to Lessee for any loss or damage resulting therefrom.
SECTION 19.02 RENTAL ADJUSTMENT.
In the event Lessee is prevented from operating the Water Theme Park during normal operating periods by a “force majeure” event which is not a risk required to be covered
41
by loss of income or business interruption insurance and not actually covered by business interruption or loss of income insurance, the rent in amount equal to the average of the rent paid by Lessee for the previous three years may be abated to the extent that the City Manager may reasonably determine that such “force majeure” event interfered with the normal operation of the Leased Premises and caused a loss of income to Lessee, and was in no way caused or exacerbated by the Lessee, and provided a written claim is filed within sixty (60) days after the commencement of such event. Lessee agrees to cooperate in the determination of the rental abatement by furnishing all information requested relative to the operation of the Leased Premises and permitting examination and audit of the accounting records kept in connection with the Leased Premises.

SURRENDER OF PREMISES
SECTION 20.01. ABANDONMENT, VACATION OR SURRENDER OF PROPERTY DURING TERM

SECTION 20.02. SURRENDER OF LEASE PROPERTY AT END OF LEASE TERM
A. On the last day of the term of or upon the sooner termination of this Lease, Lessee shall quit and surrender the Leased Premises in good condition and repair (reasonable use and wear and damage by acts of God excepted), together with all alterations, additions, improvements and betterments which may have been made in or to the Leased Premises, except movable furniture and trade fixtures put in at the
42
expense of the Lessee, and except such other property, if any, which Lessee is expressly authorized by other provisions of this Lease to remove from the Leased Premises. Lessee shall ascertain from the City Manager, within 4 years from the expiration of the Lease Term, whether the City Manager desires to have Lessee remove any alterations, additions, improvements or betterments which may have been made by Lessee and to restore the Leased Premises, or any part or parts thereof, to the same condition as when received (reasonable use and wear thereof and damage by acts of God excepted), and, if the City Manager should so desire, then Lessee shall so restore the Leased Premises to their natural condition at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. The parties agree, however, to the extent that there are funds available in the Cap Fund, Lessee may utilize funds from the Cap Fund for restoration of the Leased Premises to their natural condition.
B. Lessee, on or before the end of the Lease term, shall remove all property owned by Lessee (except such as Lessee may be required to surrender under the provisions of the immediately preceding subsection) from the Leased Premises, and all such property not so removed shall be deemed, at the option of the City, to have been abandoned by the Lessee.
C. If the Leased Premises are not surrendered on the last day of the term or any sooner termination of this Lease, as hereinabove provided, Lessee shall defend and indemnify City against all loss, damage or liability suffered by City because of Lessee’s delay in so surrendering the Leased Premises, including, but not by way of limitation, any and all claims by any succeeding tenant or Lessee founded on such delays.
