Agreement, to operate, manage, maintain, improve, enhance, develop and rehabilitate the LMM Airport Facility for Airport Purposes and otherwise in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement and (B) grant the Lessee the right to collect and retain all fees, charges and revenues in respect of the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Assets and the LMM Airport Facility Contracts, including PFCs and Government Grants-in-Aid (the “Lease”). In addition to the Lease granted hereby to the Lessee, the Authority hereby assigns, transfers and otherwise conveys to the Lessee each (and all) of the LMM Airport Facility Assets (provided that no cash received prior to the Time of Closing shall be assigned, transferred or otherwise conveyed to the Lessee, except for cash tendered as security deposits under the Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contracts and cash or cash equivalents on deposit or required to be deposited in the accounts holding the PFCs collected prior to the Closing Date in respect of PFC eligible projects) and the Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contracts (including any security deposits tendered to the Authority by the counterparties thereto), and the Lessee shall accept each such grant, assignment, transfer and conveyance (collectively, including the Lease, the “Transaction”).

(b) On or before the last day of each of the first five full Reporting Years, the Lessee shall pay to the Authority, in cash, the exact amount of $2,500,000 (the “Annual Authority Payment”). In the event that this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of the fifth full Reporting Year, the Annual Authority Payment in respect of the Reporting Year in which such termination occurs shall be pro-rated for the number of days elapsed in such Reporting Year prior to such termination and shall be due and shall be paid by the Lessee on the Reversion Date. The payment of the Annual Authority Payment shall be senior and prior to the payment of any debt of the Lessee.

(c) The Lessee shall pay to the Authority, in cash, an amount (the “Annual Authority Revenue Share”) equal to (i) for the sixth full Reporting Year through and including the thirtieth full Reporting Year, 5% of the gross Airport Revenues earned by the Lessee in such Reporting Year or (ii) for the thirty-first full Reporting Year and each succeeding Reporting Year, 10% of the gross Airport Revenues earned by the Lessee in such Reporting Year. The Annual Authority Revenue Share for each Reporting Year is due and shall be paid by the Lessee within 30 days after the delivery of the audited annual financial report for such Reporting Year as required by Section 8.1(c)(ii). Any Annual Authority Revenue Share in respect of the final Reporting Year shall be due and shall be paid by the Lessee within 90 days after the Reversion Date. The payment of the Annual Authority Revenue Share shall be senior and prior to the payment of any debt of the Lessee.

(d) As part of the Lease, the Authority grants the Lessee the right to sublease the non-aeronautical areas of the LMM Airport Facility as provided in this Agreement and collect and retain all fees, charges, payments and revenues in respect of such subleased facilities. Pursuant to this right to sublease, the Authority, by the Time of Closing, shall cause all those LMM Airport Facility Contracts that are lease or concession agreements to include the Lessee as a party thereof or shall assign such LMM Airport Facility Contracts to the Lessee in order for the Lessee to have the right to collect and retain all fees, charges, payments and revenues in respect of such LMM Airport Facility Contracts.

(e) It is the intent of the Parties that the Lessee shall have the right to use the LMM Airport Facility as provided in this Agreement as lessee and that the Authority in no way is assigning, transferring or otherwise conveying title of the LMM Airport Facility to the Lessee.

(f) Prior to the Closing, the Leasehold Fee as allocated among the rights and interests described in Section 2.1(a), shall be set forth on an agreed Schedule to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that an Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contract includes services to be provided to the Authority in connection with other facilities or assets of the Authority not being conveyed to the Lessee as part of the Lease, the Authority may partially assign such Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contract to the Lessee, and the Lessee shall accept such partial assignment, in accordance with the foregoing.

Section 2.2 Closing.

(a) The closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) shall take place on a Business Day not later than 180 days after the Bid Date (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Authority and the Lessee with notice to the Signatory Airlines) (the “Outside Closing Date”) that is specified by the Lessee in a notice to the Authority and the Signatory Airlines not less than 10 Business Days prior to such Business Day; provided that the Closing shall not take place prior to the later of (i) the first Business Day that is 90 days after the Date of this Agreement and (ii) the date on which all Closing conditions shall have been satisfied or waived by the Party or Parties for the benefit of which such conditions are applicable (the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall be held at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxxx LLP, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, or such other place agreed to in writing by the Authority and the Lessee, with notice to the Signatory Airlines. At the Time of Closing, the Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Authority same-day funds by wire transfer in the amount of the Leasehold Fee (less the amount of any Cash Deposit and any interest thereon withdrawn by the Authority pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) in full payment for the Lessee Interest, and upon receipt of such payment the Transaction shall be effective. Upon receipt of the funds described in the preceding sentence, the Authority shall immediately cancel and return the Closing LOC in accordance with the Lessee’s instructions.

(b) The Authority shall be entitled to all revenues with respect to the LMM Airport Facility and shall be responsible for all charges, costs and expenses with respect to Assumed Liabilities that shall have accrued as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. If the Authority and the Lessee are unable to determine if any revenues or charges, costs and expenses with respect to the Assumed Liabilities actually accrued as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, such revenues, charges, costs and expenses shall be prorated between the Authority and the Lessee as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date based upon the actual number of days in the month and a 365-day year. Any amounts payable to or owed by the Authority pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) shall be added to or subtracted from the Leasehold Fee accordingly. If final amounts cannot be determined at the Closing for any items contemplated by this Section 2.2(b), then the Authority and the Lessee shall allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as revenue statements, invoices or bills are available, with final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing Date. The Authority and the Lessee shall have reasonable access to, and the right to inspect and audit, the other’s books to confirm such final determinations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Article 8 and Article 19. Payment of any amount due under the final adjustment will

be paid by the Lessee to the Authority or by the Authority to the Lessee (as applicable) within 30 days of agreement by the Authority and the Lessee of the final adjustment. It is understood and agreed that the Authority shall, up to and including 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, be entitled to all of the cash or cash equivalents in or generated by the LMM Airport Facility (other than cash or cash equivalents on deposit or required to be deposited in the accounts holding the PFCs collected prior to the Closing Date in respect of PFC eligible projects and any security deposit under any Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contract).

Section 2.3 Deposit.

(a) The Authority acknowledges receipt from the Lessee of cash (a “Cash Deposit”) or one or more Letters of Credit with a term of at least 180 days from the Date of this Agreement (the Closing LOC”), or a combination of the foregoing, in an aggregate amount equal to 5% of the Leasehold Fee as of the date hereof, to be held by the Authority for the sole purpose described in Section 2.3(b). The Authority shall deposit any Cash Deposit with a Depositary, which shall invest such amount in Eligible Investments pending Closing. The Lessee may provide a combination of a Cash Deposit and Closing LOC to comply with the requirements of this Section 2.3(a), in which case the relevant provisions of this Agreement related to a Cash Deposit and to a Closing LOC, including the rights of the Parties related thereto, shall be construed to apply to both forms of security.

(b) If the Authority terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(iv) because a condition set forth in Section 2.4(b) remains unsatisfied (unless such Section 2.4(b) condition remains unsatisfied solely because a condition set forth in Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(c) remains unsatisfied), then the Authority shall be entitled to (i) retain any Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon and/or (ii) draw immediately without notice to the Lessee, the full amount of the Closing LOC upon presentation of a sight draft and a certificate confirming that the Authority has the right to draw under the Closing LOC in the amount of such sight draft, and the Authority shall be entitled to retain all of the proceeds of the Closing LOC, in either case, as the sole and exclusive remedy or right of the Authority against the Lessee hereunder for any cause of action arising under or relating to this Agreement or any document executed in connection herewith. If this Agreement is terminated for any other reason, the Authority shall, within five days, return any Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon and return the Closing LOC, if any, to the Lessee marked cancelled. The right of the Authority to retain any Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon or to draw the Closing LOC is intended to be, and shall constitute, liquidated damages and the exclusive remedy to compensate the Authority for the cost of foregoing alternative opportunities and for other costs incurred by the Authority in reliance on the Lessee’s agreement to enter into the transaction contemplated hereunder, and full retention of any Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon and full payment of the entire draw on the Closing LOC to the Authority shall terminate all other rights and remedies of the Authority with respect to the Lessee. The Parties acknowledge that the damages suffered by the Authority as a result of such termination would be impossible to ascertain and that the combined amount of any Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon and the Closing LOC is a reasonable estimate thereof and is not intended as a penalty.

(c) At Closing, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.4(a), (b) and (c), the Authority shall withdraw the Cash Deposit and all interest earned thereon as a credit against the Leasehold Fee.

(i) Restoration. If, following the Bid Date and prior to the Time of Closing, there has occurred any material casualty loss, destruction or damage to any part of the LMM Airport Facility and this Agreement has not been terminated under Section 2.4(d), then the Authority shall promptly and diligently Restore the affected portion of the LMM Airport Facility; provided that if the affected portion of the LMM Airport Facility cannot be Restored prior to the Closing Date, then the Authority shall make or cause to be made such Restoration as can reasonably be completed prior to the Closing Date (in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with any applicable Operating Standards and using Reasonable Efforts to minimize

interference with the LMM Airport Facility Operations and further damage to the LMM Airport Facility) and assign all warranties and guarantees in respect of such Restoration to the Lessee on the Closing Date and, at the option of the Lessee, either (A) the Authority, prior to the Closing Date, shall provide to the Lessee a plan for the completion of such Restoration efforts by the Authority or its agents following the Time of Closing at the Authority’s sole expense and subject to the Lessee’s reasonable approval and shall then complete such Restoration in substantial accordance with such plan; provided that the Lessee may choose in its discretion to undertake such Restoration pursuant to such approved plan at the Authority’s sole cost and expense or (B) the Lessee shall Restore the remaining affected portion of the LMM Airport Facility in accordance with its own plan for the completion of such Restoration. Notwithstanding whether the Authority is required to complete the Restoration or the Lessee shall have elected to complete the Restoration as contemplated above, the Authority shall provide Leasehold Compensation to the Lessee during the period from the Closing Date until the Restoration is complete (which Leasehold Compensation, for the avoidance of doubt, may be provided by extending the Term in accordance with Section 15.1(c)(i)).

(ii) Compensation.

(C) In the event that the cost of Restoring the affected portion of the LMM Airport Facility pursuant to Section 2.5(i)(i)(B) is less than the net amount of insurance proceeds received by the Lessee from the Authority therefor plus the amount deducted from the Leasehold Fee in accordance with Section 2.5(i)(ii), such excess shall be the property of the Authority and shall be paid by the Lessee to the Authority upon the Restoration of the affected portion of the LMM Airport Facility.

(j) Airport Security Program. The Lessee acknowledges and agrees that it is obligated under 49 C.F.R.

On the Closing Date, the Lessee shall deliver to the Authority a list of all Authority Employees hired by the Lessee or its affiliates as of the Time of Closing.

(ii) With respect to any Authority Employee hired by the Lessee who, on the Closing Date, has 10 years or more of accumulated service under the Commonwealth Employee Retirement System (the “Commonwealth Retirement System”) and elects to continue participating in the Commonwealth Retirement System (each such Authority Employee, a “Qualified Employee”), the Lessee agrees to make the employer contributions that government employers are required to make pursuant to Sections 2-116, 3-105 and 4-113 of Act No. 447, approved by the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico on May 15, 1951, as amended, that would become due and payable after the Closing Date for all Qualified Employees hired by the Lessee.

The Lessee shall obtain, comply with, promptly renew and maintain in good standing all Authorizations necessary to perform its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that if (i) the Lessee is, at any time during the Term, required to obtain any Authorization from a Governmental Authority that the Authority was not required to obtain in connection with its operation of the LMM Airport Facility prior to the Time of Closing or (ii) any such Authorization can be obtained only by the Authority or some other Governmental Authority, then the Authority shall (x) use its Reasonable Efforts to assist the Lessee in obtaining such Authorization and (y) subject to Law, promptly deliver to the Lessee a copy of any notice, summons, letter or other communication in respect of any Authorization obtained, renewed or maintained in the Authority’s name following the Authority’s receipt thereof. Nothing in this Agreement, including Section 2.1, shall be deemed to waive or modify any Authorization required to be obtained by the Lessee or any other Person in connection with the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Operations or any activities generating revenues at the LMM Airport Facility.

(d) Prohibition Against Exclusive Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to authorize the Lessee to grant an Airline the exclusive right to conduct an Air Transportation Business, and the Lessee shall have the right to grant to airlines other than the Signatory Airlines the privileges and right of conducting any or all activities of an aeronautical nature.

(e) Subordination. The Parties covenant and agree that this Agreement and any Leasehold Mortgage shall be subordinated to the provisions of any existing or future agreement or assurances between the Lessee and the United States federal government (including any such agreement or assurance between the Authority and the United States federal government that are assumed by the Lessee), the execution of which has been or will be required as a condition precedent to the granting of federal funds or the approval to impose or use PFCs for the development of the LMM Airport Facility. The Authority further agrees that it shall not cause the Lessee to violate any assurances made by the Lessee to the federal government in connection with the granting of such federal funds or approvals.

(f) Qualifications. The Lessee shall, at all times during the Term, maintain in full force and effect its existence and all qualifications necessary to carry on its business pertaining

to the LMM Airport Facility (including the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate and TSA-approved Airport Security Program), the LMM Airport Facility Operations or any activities generating revenues at the LMM Airport Facility, including all rights, franchises, licenses, privileges and qualifications required in connection with the LMM Airport Facility Operations. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to prohibit or limit the Lessee from changing its organizational form or status (for example, a change from a limited liability company to a corporation or a limited partnership), subject to the terms of Section 17.1(a).

Section 3.5 No Encumbrances.

(a) By the Lessee. The Lessee shall not do any act or thing that will create any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Lessee Encumbrance) against the LMM Airport Facility and shall promptly remove any such Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Lessee Encumbrance) against the LMM Airport Facility unless any such Encumbrance comes into existence as a result of an act or omission by the Authority, any other Governmental Authority or any Person claiming through the Authority or any other Governmental Authority, which in turn was not caused by an act or omission of the Lessee. The Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder if the Lessee continuously, diligently and in good faith contests any such Encumbrance, or the validity thereof (or causes such contest), by appropriate legal proceedings that shall operate to prevent the foreclosure of any such Encumbrance; provided that the Lessee (i) has given advance notification to the Authority that it is the intent of the Lessee to contest the validity or collection thereof or cause such contest and (ii) has given a reasonably satisfactory indemnity to the Authority or has deposited with the Authority a Letter of Credit, surety bond consistent (as to form and credit quality of issuer) with the requirements set forth herein for Letters of Credit, cash or Eligible Investment reasonably satisfactory to the Authority in an amount equal to the amount of the claim or Encumbrance, plus such interest and penalties, court costs or other charges as the Authority may reasonably estimate to be payable by the Lessee at the conclusion of such contest or as is required to provide insurance over any potential Encumbrance; provided, however, that in the event such Letter of Credit, surety bond, cash or Eligible Investment shall be so deposited, the same shall be held until such claim or other Encumbrance shall have been released and discharged and shall thereupon be returned to the Lessee, less any amounts expended by the Authority, if any, to procure such release or discharge, or any loss, cost, damage, reasonable attorneys’ fees or expense incurred by the Authority, if any, by virtue of the contest of such Encumbrance.

(b) By the Authority. Neither the Authority nor any Governmental Authority of or in the Commonwealth shall do any act or thing that will create or permit to exist any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Authority Encumbrance) against the LMM Airport Facility and shall promptly remove any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Authority Encumbrance) against the LMM Airport Facility that came into existence as a result of an act of or omission by the Authority or a Person claiming through the Authority. The Authority shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder if the Authority continuously, diligently and in good faith contests any such Encumbrance, or the validity thereof (or causes such contest), by appropriate legal proceedings that shall operate to prevent the foreclosure of any such Encumbrance; provided that the Authority (i) has given advance notification to the Lessee that it is the intent of the Authority to contest the validity or collection thereof or cause such contest and (ii) has given a reasonably satisfactory indemnity to the Lessee or has deposited with the Lessee a Letter of Credit, surety bond consistent (as to form and credit quality of issuer) with the requirements set forth herein for

Letters of Credit, cash or Eligible Investment reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee in an amount equal to the amount of the claim or Encumbrance, plus such interest and penalties, court costs or other charges as the Lessee may reasonably estimate to be payable by the Authority at the conclusion of such contest or as is required to provide insurance over any potential Encumbrance; provided, however, that in the event such Letter of Credit, surety bond, cash or Eligible Investment shall be so deposited, the same shall be held until such claim or other Encumbrance shall have been released and discharged and shall thereupon be returned to the Authority, less any amounts expended by the Lessee, if any, to procure such release or discharge, or any loss, cost, damage, reasonable attorneys’ fees or expense incurred by the Lessee, if any, by virtue of the contest of such Encumbrance.

(c) Removal. Each Party, at the reasonable request of the other Party, shall use its Reasonable Efforts to assist such other Party in attempting to remove any Encumbrance that has come into existence as a result of an act of or omission by such other Party (excluding Encumbrances permitted by Section 3.5(a) or (b)); provided that nothing herein shall obligate the Authority to waive, modify or otherwise limit or affect the enforcement by the Authority of any applicable Law with respect to the LMM Airport Facility or any activities generating revenues at the LMM Airport Facility and provided further that the costs and expenses incurred by any Party in connection with such efforts shall be borne by the Party whose act or omission has given rise to such Encumbrance.

Section 3.6 Single Purpose Covenants. The Lessee shall, at all times during the Term, (a) be formed and organized solely for the purpose of owning the Lessee Interest and using, possessing, leasing, operating and otherwise dealing with the LMM Airport Facility (and carrying out any activities permitted pursuant to this Agreement (and any activities reasonably incidental thereto, including the financing thereof and of the Transaction)), (b) not engage in any business unrelated to clause (a) above, (c) not have any assets other than those related to its activities in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) above, (d) maintain its own separate books and records and its own accounts, in each case that are separate and apart from the books and records and accounts of any other Person; provided, however, that the Lessee’s assets may be included in a consolidated financial statement of a direct or indirect shareholder or other owner of a beneficial interest of the Lessee if inclusion on such consolidated financial statement is required to comply with the requirement of generally accepted accounting principles of the relevant jurisdiction, but only if (i) such consolidated financial statement shall be appropriately footnoted to the effect that the Lessee’s assets are owned by the Lessee and that they are being included on the consolidated financial statement of such shareholder or other owner of a beneficial interest only to comply with the requirements of generally accepted accounting principles of the relevant jurisdiction and (ii) such assets shall be listed on the Lessee’s own separate balance sheet, (e) hold itself out as being a Person, separate and apart from any other Person, (f) not commingle its funds or assets with those of any other Person, (g) conduct its own business in its own name independently and through its own authorized officers and agents, (h) except as noted in clause (d) above, maintain separate financial statements and file its own Tax returns (to the extent required by applicable Law), (i) pay its own debts and liabilities when they become due out of its own funds, (j) observe all corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, formalities and do all things necessary to preserve its existence, (k) have sufficient officers and personnel to run its business operations and to supervise its Contractors pursuant to one or more contractual arrangements, (l) pay the salaries of its own employees, if any, and maintain a sufficient number of employees in

Section 3.7 Rights of the Authority to Access and Perform Work at the LMM Airport Facility.

(a) Reservation of Rights. The Authority (for itself and any of its Representatives and any other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, as well as grantees, tenants, mortgagees, licensees and others claiming or acting by, through or under the Authority (each, an “Authority Related Entity”)) reserves the right and shall, at all times during the Term, have the right to enter the LMM Airport Facility and each and every part thereof in response to any event, circumstance or purpose described in this Section 3.7(a), subject to applicable Law and the Airport Security Program:

(i) to inspect the LMM Airport Facility or determine whether or not the Lessee is in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3;

(iii) in the event of an actual or reported emergency, danger, threat, circumstance or event that is reasonably believed by the Authority or its designee (including relevant police, fire, emergency services, armed forces and any other security or emergency personnel in accordance with Section 3.17) to have caused (or to present the imminent potential to cause) injury to individuals, damage to property, or harm to the Environment or to public safety, to take, at such times as the Authority determines necessary in its discretion (or as directed by the FAA, TSA or other affected federal agency) and with notice to the Lessee if practicable under the circumstances, such actions as the Authority or such designee reasonably determines necessary (or as directed by the FAA, TSA or other affected federal agency) to respond to or to rectify such emergency, danger, threat, circumstance or event;

(iv) in the event of any circumstance or event that is reasonably believed by the Authority to have caused a material impairment to the continuous operation of the LMM Airport Facility as a public airport (and the Authority shall provide written notice to the Lessee of

such event or circumstance as soon as is reasonably practicable after first becoming aware of such event or circumstance), and if the Authority in its discretion (or as directed by the FAA, TSA or other affected federal agency) reasonably determines that the Lessee is not then taking all necessary steps to respond to or to rectify such circumstance or event, to take, at such times as the Authority determines necessary in its discretion (or as directed by the FAA, TSA or other affected federal agency) and with notice to the Lessee if practicable under the circumstances, such actions as the Authority determines may be reasonably necessary (or as directed by the FAA, TSA or other affected federal agency) to respond to or to rectify such circumstance or event or to restore the operation of the LMM Airport Facility;

(v) at its own cost and expense, to design, construct, operate, service, manage, maintain, repair, rehabilitate or replace any Affected Property;

(viii) at its own cost and expense, for the purposes described in Section 14 of Act No. 83 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico, enacted on May 2, 1941, as amended; and

(ix) at its own cost and expense (except as otherwise expressly set out in this Agreement) and solely in accordance with the terms hereof, to do any other act or thing that the Authority or any Authority Related Entity may be obligated to do or have a right to do under this Agreement and/or the Use Agreement.

In connection with any entry made pursuant to (x) Section 3.7(a)(i) and (ii), such right to be exercised at all reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice to the Lessee; (y) Section 3.7(a)(iii) and (iv), such right to be exercised at all reasonable time with notice to be provided as set forth in

such subclauses (iii) and (iv), respectively; and (z) Section 3.7(a)(v) through (vii) and Section 3.7(a)(ix), such right to be exercised at all reasonable times with the Authority to request, with reasonable prior written notice, the Lessee’s consent to the exercise of such right.

In connection with any entry made pursuant to this Section 3.7(a), (aa) such right to enter the LMM Airport Facility shall not include any of the private business offices of the Lessee that may be located at the LMM Airport Facility; (bb) notwithstanding Sections 3.7(a)(v) through (ix), any cost or expense related to any exercise by the Authority of its rights under Section 3.7(a)(ii) shall be borne by the Parties according to Section 16.1(b)(v); (cc) the Authority (A) shall conduct all activities in connection therewith consistent with the TSA-approved Airport Security Program, (B) shall consult with TSA, as appropriate, if such entry is reasonably expected to adversely impact transportation security at the LMM Airport Facility (provided that if the Authority deems in its reasonable discretion that the emergency nature of the situation requiring such entry precludes it from consulting with TSA in advance, it will notify TSA as soon as reasonably practicable following such entry), (C) shall, and shall use its Reasonable Efforts to cause any Authority Related Entity effecting such entry or action to, use Reasonable Efforts to minimize interference with the LMM Airport Facility Operations (including security) and damage to the LMM Airport Facility in connection with any entry on the LMM Airport Facility and (D) pay to the Lessee the Leasehold Compensation, upon demand by the Lessee, resulting from any entry or action on the LMM Airport Facility that qualifies as a Compensation Event pursuant to the definition thereof or as a result of any liability or obligation of or to the Lessee under any Environmental Law directly caused by an entry or action with respect to the LMM Airport Facility or LMM Airport Facility Operations pursuant to this Section 3.7(a).

(b) Access Rights. The Authority, its Representatives and any Governmental Authority of or in the Commonwealth, during the progress of any work referred to in this Section 3.7, at no additional cost to the Authority, its Representatives or any Governmental Authority of or in the Commonwealth, shall have all necessary or appropriate access rights and may keep and store at the LMM Airport Facility all necessary or appropriate materials, tools, supplies, equipment, shed, mobile trailers and other vehicles, in a reasonably neat and orderly fashion, in material compliance with all Laws (including Environmental Laws) and the Operating Standards; provided that such access and storage shall not unreasonably interfere with the Lessee’s conduct of the LMM Airport Facility Operations. The Lessee shall not have any liability for theft of or damage to such material and other items or with respect to any acts or omissions of the Authority, its Representatives or any Governmental Authority of or in the Commonwealth or any Person acting on behalf of any of them. To the extent that the Authority or any Governmental Authority of or in the Commonwealth of any other Person on the Authority’s behalf undertakes works or repairs under this Section 3.7 or any other provision of this Agreement, such work or repairs shall be commenced and diligently completed in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with any applicable Operating Standards and in such a manner as not to materially interfere with the Lessee’s conduct of business in or use of such space to the extent reasonably possible without incurring any additional cost.

(c) Effect of Reservation. Any exercise or reservation of a right by the Authority and any of its Representatives to enter the LMM Airport Facility and to make or perform any repairs, alterations, Restoration or other work in, to or about the LMM Airport Facility that is the Lessee’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement, shall not be deemed to (i) impose any

obligation on the Authority to do so, (ii) render the Authority liable to the Lessee or any other Person for the failure to do so or (iii) relieve the Lessee from any obligation to indemnify the Authority as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall impose any duty upon the part of the Authority to do any work required to be performed by the Lessee hereunder and performance of any such work by the Authority and any of its Representatives shall not constitute a waiver of the Lessee’s default in failing to perform the same.

Section 3.8 LMM Airport Facility Cash Reserves. In accordance with and subject to any Leasehold Mortgage, the Lessee shall (subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 3.8) at all times during the Term maintain reserves in an amount equal to at least (on any date of determination) (a) the total amount of debt payable (other than any principal amount of any debt payable within 12 months of the final maturity date of such debt) with respect to the LMM Airport Facility in the then-current Term Year (the “Debt Service Reserve Requirement”) and (b) 25% of the projected operating expenses for the LMM Airport Facility (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Annual Authority Revenue Share payments) for the then-current Term Year, as determined as of the commencement of such current Term Year (the “Opex Reserve Requirement”); provided that, if, at any time during the Term Year, changes to the Lessee’s projected operating expenses result in the Lessee maintaining an Opex Reserve Requirement that is 10% more than the amount of the Opex Reserve Requirement that would be required taking into account such changes, then the Lessee may adjust (the “Interim Adjustment”) the amount in reserve to conform to the Lessee’s then-current forecast; provided, further, that in no event will the Lessee be entitled to make more than two Interim Adjustments during any Term Year. Such cash reserves may not be satisfied with accounts consisting of PFC collection. The Debt Service Reserve Requirement and the Opex Reserve Requirement may be satisfied by cash (or cash equivalents or Eligible Investments) held by the Lessee for such purpose or by the undrawn available amount of any Qualifying Account Instrument. The Lessee shall be entitled to use funds on deposit or available in respect of the cash reserves contemplated in this Section 3.8 for the purpose of funding any shortfalls in operating expenses or debt service, as applicable. Following the use of any such funds in the cash reserve for operating expenses, the Lessee shall be obligated to replenish the amount so utilized by the later of (i) the date on which it is required to deliver the compliance certificate noted in the immediately succeeding sentence and (ii) 60 days following any such utilization; and following the use of any such funds in the cash reserve for debt service, the Lessee shall be obligated to replenish the amount so utilized by the date that is six months following any such utilization. To the extent that the Leasehold Mortgagee requires account reserves substantially similar to the Debt Service Reserve Requirement and Opex Reserve Requirement, such that the Debt Service Reserve Requirement and Opex Reserve Requirement are satisfied in all material respects by compliance with such Leasehold Mortgagee account reserve requirements, the Lessee shall be in compliance with the requirements of this Section 3.8 for so long as the Lessee continues to satisfy such Leasehold Mortgagee account reserve requirements. The Lessee shall deliver to the Authority on the first Business Day of each quarter of each Term Year (or at such times as may be required by the Leasehold Mortgagee; provided that such Leasehold Mortgagee’s requirement is a quarterly requirement), and as otherwise requested by the Authority from time to time, an Officer’s Certificate in which the Lessee represents and warrants that it is in compliance with the requirements contemplated in this Section 3.8.

Section 3.9 Coordination.

(a) Utility Coordination. Subject to Section 3.7(a)(vii) and Section 3.9(c), the Lessee shall be responsible for coordinating or ensuring the coordination of all LMM Airport Facility Operations with utilities and Persons having service lines, pipelines, transmission lines and other equipment, cables, systems and other apparatus in, on, under, over or adjacent to the LMM Airport Facility. The Lessee shall cause provision to be made for the removal or temporary or permanent relocation and restoration of utilities and other services and any lines, equipment, cables, systems and other apparatus that intersect, interfere with, interface with or otherwise affect the LMM Airport Facility Operations and shall arrange for temporary rights of entry and access to utilities and other services to be made available that are necessary in connection with the LMM Airport Facility Operations or as may exist under this Agreement or applicable Law, in each case at the sole cost and expense of such utilities or other Persons or the Lessee. The Authority shall cooperate with the Lessee with respect to its obligations under this Section 3.9.

(b) Affected Property Coordination. The Lessee shall be responsible for coordinating or ensuring the coordination of all LMM Airport Facility Operations with Affected Property, but shall have no responsibility for such Affected Property. The Authority shall cooperate with the Lessee with respect to its obligations under this Section 3.9(b).

(c) No Interference. The Parties understand and agree that (i) nothing in the foregoing Sections 3.9(a) and (b) is in any way intended to interfere with LMM Airport Facility Operations and (ii) the Authority shall cooperate with the Lessee in minimizing any effect that the obligations of the Lessee under this Section 3.9 may have on the LMM Airport Facility Operations and the revenues of the LMM Airport Facility.

Section 3.10 No Entry on Authority Property. Except in the case of an emergency (and then only to the extent necessary to avoid injury or death to individuals or damage to property) and except for limited access necessary for the Lessee’s performance of its obligations hereunder or its compliance with applicable Laws that does not interfere with the Authority’s use or operation of such other properties in any material respect or otherwise except to the extent available for public use, the Lessee shall not enter upon any property of the Authority adjacent to, above, under or within the boundaries of the LMM Airport Facility, in connection with the LMM Airport Facility Operations without the prior Approval of the Authority.

Section 3.11 Payment of Taxes.

(a) Payment of Taxes. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Lessee shall pay when due all Taxes that are or become payable by the Lessee or that are required to be collected by the Lessee from other Persons in respect of periods during the Term in respect of the operations at, occupancy of or conduct of business, in each case of (or by) the Lessee, in or from the LMM Airport Facility and fixtures or personal property included in the LMM Airport Facility, other than as set forth below. The Authority reserves the right, without being obligated to do so, to pay the amount of any such Taxes not timely paid by the Lessee, and the amount so paid by the Authority shall be due and payable by the Lessee promptly upon demand by the Authority. The Lessee shall have the right to contest in good faith the validity or amount of any Taxes which it is responsible to pay under this Section 3.11; provided that (i) the Lessee has given prior notice to the Authority

of each such contest, (ii) no contest by the Lessee may involve a reasonable possibility of forfeiture or sale of the LMM Airport Facility and (iii) upon the final determination of any contest by the Lessee, if the Lessee has not already done so, the Lessee shall pay the amount found to be due, if any, together with any costs, penalties and interest applicable thereto (if any). If the Lessee is contesting in good faith the validity or amount of any Taxes in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Authority shall not have the right to pay the amount of such Taxes until there is a final determination of such contest.

(b) Exemption from Taxes. The Authority covenants that during the Term the Lessee shall not be responsible for, and the Lessee and the LMM Airport Facility shall not be subject to, (i) any real property Tax imposed on or measured by the value of the LMM Airport Facility (including any LMM Airport Facility Assets deemed to be real property constituting part of the LMM Airport Facility) that is imposed by the Authority or any other Governmental Authority of the Commonwealth or that is imposed on the “owner” of the LMM Airport Facility (including relating to future expenditures for real property) or, (ii) sales and use tax imposed by the Commonwealth on the Leasehold Fee or any passenger charges (it being recognized that such a tax is not permitted by federal Law as of the Date of this Agreement), (iii) any personal property tax on personal property owned by the Authority and used by the Lessee exclusively in the LMM Airport Facility or in the operations conducted therein that is imposed by the Authority or any Governmental Authority of the Commonwealth. The Authority shall provide Leasehold Compensation to the Lessee resulting from any breach of the covenant set forth in this Section 3.11(b).

Section 3.12 Utilities. The Lessee shall pay, or cause to be paid, when due all charges (including all applicable Taxes and fees) for the Utility Systems; provided that, in the event that the Lessee is unable to source utilities from third-party providers at a rate classification that is at least as favorable as that enjoyed by the Authority at other airports operated by the Authority in the Commonwealth, the Lessee shall have the right to receive Leasehold Compensation from the Authority in respect thereof. Upon the reasonable request of the Authority, the Lessee shall forward to the Authority, within 30 days following the respective due dates, official receipts, photocopies thereof, or other evidence satisfactory to the Authority, acting reasonably, of the payment required to be made by the Lessee in accordance with this Section 3.12. The Authority does not warrant that any utility services will be free from interruptions caused by war, insurrection, civil commotion, riots, acts of God, government action, terrorism, repairs, renewals, improvements, alterations, strikes, lockouts, picketing, whether legal or illegal, accidents, inability to obtain fuel or supplies or any other causes, and any such interruption of utility services shall never be deemed an Adverse Action or an eviction or disturbance of the Lessee’s use and possession of the LMM Airport Facility or any part thereof unless in such case caused by the Authority, or render the Authority liable to the Lessee for damages or, unless the same constitutes a Delay Event, relieve the Lessee from performance of the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement. The Authority shall maintain and preserve, for the length of the Term, all legal rights and easements in its possession related to utility services to the extent necessary for the Lessee to operate the LMM Airport Facility.

Section 3.13 Negotiations with Governmental Authorities.

(a) Prior to entering into any agreement with any Governmental Authority in connection with the LMM Airport Facility Operations (a “Government Agreement”), the Lessee shall submit such Government Agreement for Approval by the Authority, which Approval may be withheld, delayed or otherwise conditioned in the discretion of the Authority in the case of Government Agreements that extend or could extend beyond the Term (unless such agreement is assignable and subject to a right by the Authority to terminate such agreement without penalty upon three Business Days’ notice or less, effective upon such extension) or pursuant to which the Authority may incur any liability whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the absence of such Government Agreement may cause the Lessee or LMM Airport Facility Operations to fail to be in compliance with applicable Law or the terms of this Agreement, the Lessee may enter into such Government Agreement upon notice to the Authority; provided that the Lessee indemnifies the Authority for any Losses relating thereto. If the Lessee wishes the Authority to be a party to a Government Agreement, in the place and stead of, or in addition to, the Lessee, then the Lessee must provide notice of the proposed terms of such Government Agreement to the Authority for the Authority’s Approval, which Approval will be in the Authority’s discretion, and all costs and expenses incurred by the Authority in connection with or related to such Government Agreement shall be borne by the Lessee.

(b) The Authority shall use its Reasonable Efforts to cooperate with the Lessee in any negotiations with any Governmental Authority regarding any Government Agreements. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Authority in connection with or related to such negotiations shall be borne by the Lessee.

Section 3.14 Notices of Defaults and Claims. The Lessee or the Authority (the “Notifying Party”) shall promptly give notice to the other Party (a) if the Notifying Party becomes aware that it is in default of its obligations under this Agreement (including the Operating Standards), the Use Agreement, any material Assigned LMM Airport Facility Contract or any other Operating Agreement and (b) of all material claims, proceedings, disputes (including labor disputes) or litigation pertaining to the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Operations or the Notifying Party (whether or not such claim, proceeding or litigation is covered by insurance) of which the Notifying Party has actual knowledge. The Notifying Party’s notice shall provide all reasonable information requested by the Authority or the Lessee, as applicable, from time to time concerning the status of such default, claims, proceedings or litigation. A copy of the notices provided pursuant to this Section 3.14 shall be given to each of the Leasehold Mortgagee, FAA Associate Administrator of Airports and TSA.

Section 3.15 Assignment of Operating Agreements and Plans. At the request of the Authority, the Lessee shall collaterally assign, to the extent reasonably practicable, to the Authority, in form and substance satisfactory to the Authority, acting reasonably, all of the right, title and interest of the Lessee in, to and under all or any of the Operating Agreements and all present and future specifications, plans, software (including source code) to the extent that such software is subject to a non-exclusive license permitting collateral assignment, drawings, information and documentation in relation to the LMM Airport Facility Operations except to the extent that any of the foregoing involve proprietary information (the “Plans”) as collateral security to the Authority for the observance and performance by the Lessee of its covenants and obligations

under this Agreement, to the extent so requested by the Authority and subject to the rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee. The Lessee covenants that it shall use all Reasonable Efforts to cause all of the right, title and interest of the Lessee in, to and under all Operating Agreements and the Plans entered into or created after the Time of Closing to be collaterally assignable to the Authority for the purposes of this Section 3.15. The Authority acknowledges that the Operating Agreements and the Plans may also be assigned as security to a Leasehold Mortgagee and that each of the Authority and such Leasehold Mortgagee shall be entitled to use the Operating Agreements or the Plans in enforcing their respective security as hereinafter provided. The Authority agrees that it shall exercise any amendments or take any other actions necessary for the Lessee to exercise all of the Authority’s rights under the Operating Agreements, and the Authority shall transfer to the Lessee all security under any such Operating Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the Authority’s assumption of liabilities under the Operating Agreements accruing after such time as the Authority exercises its rights under this Section 3.15 subject to Article 18, the Authority shall be entitled to use the Operating Agreements and the Plans in each of the following events: (a) if the Authority terminates this Agreement without a lease agreement being granted to the Leasehold Mortgagee or nominee thereof pursuant to the provisions of Article 18 and (b) if the Authority elects to use the Operating Agreements or the Plans to remedy a Lessee Default under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Leasehold Mortgagee has entered into possession or is diligently enforcing and continues to diligently enforce its security, whether by way of exercising the Lessee’s rights under this Agreement, the appointment of a receiver or receiver and manager, foreclosure or power of sale in accordance with Article 18, or otherwise, and is using or reasonably expects to be using the Operating Agreements or the Plans in respect of the LMM Airport Facility Operations, the Authority shall not be entitled to use the Operating Agreements or the Plans in enforcing its security, it being acknowledged that any assignment of the Operating Agreement or the Plans to a Leasehold Mortgagee shall have priority over any assignment of the Operating Agreements or the Plans to the Authority and the Authority shall cooperate with the Lessee and the Leasehold Mortgagee in connection with ensuring such priority, including that the Authority shall execute and deliver to the Leasehold Mortgagee an intercreditor and subordination agreement in form and substance satisfactory to such Leasehold Mortgagee, acting reasonably, acknowledging such priority. The Lessee shall promptly deliver to the Authority, at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, forthwith after completion or execution and delivery, a copy of each item of the Operating Agreements and the Plans.

Section 3.16 Name.

(a) The name designated for the LMM Airport Facility is “Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx International Airport.” The Lessee shall not have the right to (i) sell or lease any naming rights for the LMM Airport Facility, or any portion of the LMM Airport Facility, to any third-party or (ii) change the name of the LMM Airport Facility or to sell or lease naming rights for the LMM Airport Facility or any portion thereof without the prior Approval of the Authority, which Approval may be withheld, delayed or otherwise conditioned in the discretion of the Authority.

(b) The Authority, in its discretion, shall have the right to change the name of the LMM Airport Facility, or any portion of the LMM Airport Facility (and to cause the Lessee to change, at the Authority’s expense, any signage on or at the LMM Airport Facility in connection therewith), at any time during the Term upon 90 days’ prior notice to the Lessee; provided, however, that the Authority shall grant a license of the name together with all related logos and

marks to the Lessee upon terms substantially similar to those contained in Section 3.16(c); provided further that any change in the name of the LMM Airport Facility by the Authority in accordance with this Section 3.16 shall not result in a name of the LMM Airport Facility, or any portion of the LMM Airport Facility, being odious or offensive or otherwise likely to result in a negative association by the public. The exercise of such right by the Authority shall not constitute an Adverse Action. The Authority shall have the right to all proceeds and other consideration received in connection with any such name change and shall reimburse the Lessee for all out-of-pocket and documented costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Lessee in connection with any such name change.

(c) The Authority grants to the Lessee a non-exclusive, non-transferable (except pursuant to a Transfer permitted under Section 17.1), royalty-free license during the Term to use the name “Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx International Airport” together with all existing and future developed logos and marks (not including the Authority seal) used in connection with the LMM Airport Facility Operations, solely in connection with the performance of the Lessee’s obligations and exercise of rights under this Agreement. The Lessee may grant sublicenses of the same to Contractors.

Section 3.17 Police, Fire and Emergency Services; Access Rights.

(a) At all times during the Term, the Authority shall cause the LMM Airport Facility to be serviced by adequate police, perimeter security and firefighting, including law enforcement officer (XXX) support as required by federal security requirements (including increases required by the TSA or other federal agencies) and armed perimeter security and other law enforcement services, in each case at a level that satisfies the TSA-approved Airport Security Program. The Lessee shall be obligated to utilize all such services and shall not take any actions that would in any way inhibit or restrict the Authority’s ability to provide such services. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at all times during the Term, the Lessee shall be responsible for providing (or causing the provision of) all remaining security and emergency functions at the LMM Airport Facility in compliance with the TSA-approved Airport Security Program, including interior auxiliary security and access control functions. For the avoidance of doubt, services of the type that are, as of the Bid Date, provided to the Authority by (i) St. Xxxxx Security Services, Inc. pursuant to that certain Agreement, AP-09-10-5-041, dated as of August 14, 2009, and (ii) Xxxxxxx Ambulance Corp. pursuant to that certain Agreement, AP-11-12-5-029, dated as of September 1, 2011, are functions for which the Lessee has responsibility during the Term. The Lessee acknowledges that the Authority’s personnel that provide police, perimeter security and/or firefighting to the LMM Airport Facility may provide other police, perimeter security and/or firefighting in the general vicinity of the LMM Airport Facility; provided that such other services do not unreasonably interfere with the level of police, perimeter security and/or fire fighting to be provided at the LMM Airport Facility. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and subject to all applicable FAA, TSA and other Governmental Authority requirements, the Lessee shall have the right to contract with the Commonwealth Police Department and private security and emergency service providers for enhanced levels of service.

(b) Subject to Section 3.17(c), the Lessee shall reimburse the Authority for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Authority during the Term related to the provision of all such police, perimeter security and firefighting (including employment costs and related

overhead expenses allocable thereto, as reasonably determined by the Authority based on the time expended by the employees who render such services to the extent that such costs and expenses are not reimbursed to the Authority from a source other than the Lessee; provided that any such allocation of costs (direct and indirect) and related overhead expenses shall be in compliance with DOT/FAA “Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue”), including in the event of a fundamental change to the security conditions related to the LMM Airport Facility that requires the Authority in its reasonable discretion to increase the levels of such services at the LMM Airport Facility on an ongoing basis. All expenses directly related to the provision of services by the Authority pursuant to Section 3.17(a) shall be the responsibility of the Lessee in accordance with the Use Agreement and subject to Section 3.17(c). The Authority shall use its Reasonable Efforts to seek reimbursement for the costs and expenses of providing of such police, firefighting and perimeter security services that may be available from the TSA or another Governmental Authority. The Lessee shall provide the Authority with all reasonable assistance as may be requested by the Authority in connection with the application for and administration of any reimbursement program referred to in the previous sentence.

(c) Not less than 60 days prior to the beginning of each Term Year, the Lessee and the Authority shall agree on an annual budget for the police, perimeter security and/or firefighting to be provided with respect to the LMM Airport Facility for that upcoming Term Year, which will specify the level of services to be provided and the cost of such services (and any additional services that may be requested by the Lessee as contemplated herein). The Authority’s costs and expenses for such services for the first Term Year, which shall be reimbursed by the Lessee, shall be $2,800,000. If by the first day of any Term Year the Authority and the Lessee have been unable to reach agreement concerning such annual budget, then the annual budget in effect for the immediately prior Term Year, Adjusted for Inflation, shall continue to be in effect until such time as the Authority and the Lessee reach such agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Lessee pays any provider of such services (which are caused to be provided by the Authority in accordance with the Authority’s obligations hereunder) directly on behalf of the Authority, such amount shall be considered to have been reimbursed to the Authority for the purpose of this Section 3.17(c).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, at all times during the Term and without notice or compensation to the Lessee (i) any police, perimeter security and fire and any other security or emergency personnel retained by or on behalf of the Authority (including the Commonwealth Police Department and Authority’s fire/rescue personnel) shall have access, as required by such services or personnel, to the LMM Airport Facility for the performance of their duties; (ii) the Authority shall have access to the LMM Airport Facility as necessary for the protection of public safety; and (iii) any Governmental Authority (including the TSA and the armed forces) with jurisdiction over the LMM Airport Facility shall have access to the LMM Airport Facility as necessary for emergency management and homeland security purposes, including the prevention of, practice drills for, or response to, a public safety emergency. The Lessee shall cooperate with police, fire and emergency services and any other security or emergency personnel, including the armed forces, in respect of such emergency management and homeland security purposes.

(e) Consistent with its responsibility to satisfy all applicable FAA and TSA requirements (including maintaining compliance with 14 C.F.R. Part 139 and the TSA-approved

Airport Security Program), the Lessee shall, at all times during the Term, on a 24-hour basis at the LMM Airport Facility maintain sufficient personnel who shall be qualified to respond to emergencies. If, at any time during the Term, the Authority, in its discretion, determines that the Lessee is not satisfying its obligations under this Section 3.17(e), then the Authority may, at the cost of the Lessee, provide sufficient personnel at the LMM Airport Facility, in addition to those otherwise provided by the Authority and other Governmental Authorities hereunder, to respond to emergencies. The Lessee shall be responsible for, and shall pay the costs of, any additional security measures implemented at the LMM Airport Facility at the request of any Governmental Authority pursuant to any adopted rule, regulation, standard, recommended practice or procedure.

Section 3.18 Other Actions by Governmental Authorities. In the event that any Governmental Authority (other than the Authority or the Commonwealth (or any subdivision or agency of any of the foregoing)) proposes to take any action at any time during the Term (including or enacting any Law) and the effect of such action is reasonably expected (i) to be principally borne by the Lessee or private operators of Comparable Public Airports or Contratantes and (ii) to have a material adverse effect on the fair market value of the Lessee Interest, except where such action is in response to any act or omission on the part of the Lessee that is illegal (other than an act or omission rendered illegal by virtue of an Adverse Action or such action by any such other Governmental Authority), then at the request of the Lessee, the Authority shall use its Reasonable Efforts to oppose and challenge such action by any such other Governmental Authority; provided, however, that all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Authority in connection with such opposition or challenge shall be borne by the Lessee and provided further that, except as expressly provided in Article 14, the Authority shall have no liability to the Lessee on account of the taking of any action by a Governmental Authority described in this Section 3.18.

(“PRANG”) pursuant to that certain Joint Use Agreement by and between the Authority and PRANG, dated as of December 11, 2002, as amended (the “PRANG Contract”), is excluded from the LMM Airport Facility. At any time during the Term, the Authority may elect to enter into to negotiations with PRANG with respect to the relocation of PRANG to alternate facilities; it being understood that any relocation of PRANG to alternate facilities shall be subject to the consent of PRANG in accordance with the PRANG Contract.

(ii) If the Authority rejects the Lessee’s offer, the Authority may solicit other offers for a lease or concession for the PRANG Property from third parties. If the Authority receives such a bona fide offer from a third party that the Authority is prepared to accept, and if such offer would provide less compensation to the Authority than the offer of the Lessee that was rejected by the Authority, then prior to the Authority accepting such offer, (i) the Authority shall notify the Lessee of the terms and conditions of such bona fide offer and (ii) the Lessee may, within 15 days following the Lessee receipt of such notice, elect to include the PRANG Property in the LMM Airport Facility (by notice to the Authority) at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as such bona fide offer.

Any failure by the Authority to comply with its obligations under this Section 3.21(e) shall constitute a Compensation Event.

Section 3.22 Other Aviation Services.

Part 139 (or any successor regulation) that would authorize scheduled passenger commercial service at any airport located within the Commonwealth that did not as of the Date of this Agreement have such a 14 C.F.R. Part 139 Certificate (whether or not such airport existed as of the Date of this Agreement) (a) prior to the 20th anniversary of the Date of this Agreement at any airport located within the jurisdiction of the municipality of Ceiba or (b) prior to the 15th anniversary of the Date of this Agreement at any airport located in the Commonwealth outside the jurisdiction of the municipality of Ceiba. Any such Leasehold Compensation shall be provided only to the extent that the Lessee reasonably demonstrates a decrease in net income as a result of such commercial scheduled passenger service subsequent to the issuance of the Part 139 operating certificate. Scheduled passenger commercial service shall be defined to include services offered or operated by a U.S. or foreign air carrier that constitute a “scheduled operation” or a “public charter” as such terms are defined by 14 C.F.R. Sections 110.2 and 380.2 or in the relevant foreign equivalent regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, no Leasehold Compensation shall be required under this Section 3.22 in respect of commercial aviation services to the extent that such services (i) represent an expansion of scheduled operations as defined by 14 C.F.R. Section 110.2 at an airport that has a Part 139 certificate as of the date of this Agreement or (ii) consist of cargo aviation services. Any Leasehold Compensation required under this Section 3.22 shall be paid by the Authority from revenues that do not include revenues from any airport other than the LMM Airport Facility.

The Authority shall consult with the Lessee prior to the postponement of any such projects concerning revised timing and scheduling for implementation and shall use its Reasonable Efforts to ensure that the revised schedule does not unduly interfere with the LMM Airport Facility Operations. The Lessee shall not be in breach of this Section 4.1 for failure to substantially complete any General Accelerated Upgrade by the deadline for completion thereof as set forth on Schedule 13 if such failure is caused directly by (i) the postponement or cancellation of such project by the Authority in accordance with this Section 4.1 (unless such postponement, cancellation or failure is the result of a Lessee Default), (ii) the discovery of protected plant or animal species, human remains, archaeological, paleontological or cultural resources at or about the site of the lands required by any General Accelerated Upgrade or (iii) any action or omission of the Authority or the Commonwealth or any agency or instrumentality thereof.

To the extent that the Authority has not completed any Airline Capital Improvement Project as the Time of Closing, the Lessee shall complete, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, such uncompleted Airline Capital Improvement Projects. To the extent that, as of the Time of Closing, the Authority has entered into any third-party contracts in respect of any uncompleted Airline Capital Improvement Projects, the Authority shall assign such third-party contracts to the Lessee.

(a) If the Authority and the Lessee cannot agree on the terms of a Modification proposed pursuant to Section 5.1, then the Authority shall have the right to require the Lessee to implement the Modification under terms set forth by the Authority, and the Authority shall provide the Lessee with Leasehold Compensation related thereto pursuant to Section 15.1(b) (a “Required Modification”); provided that the Lessee shall not be required to commence any work related to the Required Modification, until (i) the Authority has obtained the GDB’s consent to such Required Modification, (ii) the Authority has provided to the Lessee evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee of the Authority’s ability to finance such Required Modification and, if the Lessee has requested the Authority to advance funds necessary to implement the Required Modification, the Lessee has received such funds from the Authority, (iii) the Lessee has obtained all Authorizations and the Authority has acquired all Additional Lands required to begin work on the Required Modification and the Lessee has no reason to believe that other required Authorizations that cannot be obtained until a later date will not be obtained when needed and (iii) the Lessee and the Authority have agreed to the terms of the Required Modification (including, as applicable, the amount of Leasehold Compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) and any

additional consideration or share of additional revenues to be paid to the Authority following implementation of such Required Modification), or if not, the terms of the Required Modification and the amount of such Leasehold Compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) (or additional Leasehold Fee, Annual Authority Revenue Share or other share of additional revenues to be paid to the Authority) have been resolved pursuant to Article 19. Any Leasehold Compensation provided pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall include any costs incurred by the Lessee in connection with the preparation of the written statement described in Section 5.1 and shall be payable pursuant to Section 15.1(b).

(b) If a Compensation Event necessitates a Modification, the Parties shall first proceed under this Article 5 to attempt in good faith to negotiate an Agreed Modification that resolves the effects of the Compensation Event. If the Parties are unable to agree on an Agreed Modification within 60 days (or such longer period of time as the Parties may agree) the Lessee shall be entitled to complete the necessary Modification and receive Leasehold Compensation and shall not be required to pay additional consideration or to provide any other compensation related thereto.

(c) The Parties acknowledge that no Required Modification shall in any way interfere or prevent the Lessee from performing its duties and responsibilities as FAA sponsor at the LMM Airport Facility and from complying with the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate.

Section 5.3 Implementation of Modifications. The Lessee shall (a) ensure that any work or construction performed in connection with a Modification is performed in a good and workmanlike manner, (b) ensure the terms of an Agreed Modification or a Required Modification are diligently complied with and implemented in such manner that the costs and delays relating to a Modification are minimized and (c) conduct a competitive process, which shall be determined by the Lessee in its discretion, for the services of any Contractor to be engaged in connection with a Modification based on commercially reasonable criteria for contract award (including such Contractor’s technical qualifications, bid price and relevant experience). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lessee shall comply with applicable Law, applicable codes, good industry practice and, to the extent not superseded by the terms of the relevant Agreed Modification or Required Modification, the provisions of the Operating Standards with respect to the manner in which Modifications are implemented.

Section 5.4 Acquisition or Condemnation by Authority of Additional Lands.

(a) Pursuant to an Agreed Modification. In the case of an Agreed Modification requiring acquisition of Additional Lands, the Authority shall take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to initiate and diligently pursue to completion the proceedings necessary for the acquisition or condemnation of such Additional Lands. In such event, the costs and expenses, including all judgments and settlements in condemnation, all awards of compensation, costs and litigation expenses, all awards of damages, all costs incurred in prosecuting the condemnation action, including the cost of all legal and support services and the fees of all witnesses, shall be borne as provided in the related Agreed Modification; provided, however, that any payment by the Lessee of any of the costs or expenses in relation to such acquisition shall not, by itself, entitle the Lessee to any real property interest in the Additional Lands so acquired except as provided in Section 5.1(c).

(b) Pursuant to a Required Modification. In the case of a Required Modification pursuant to Section 5.2, the Authority shall take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to initiate and diligently pursue to completion the proceedings necessary for the acquisition or condemnation of Additional Lands for such Required Modification.

In connection with the foregoing, the Lessee shall, and shall cause any Leasehold Mortgagee to, execute such instruments as may be reasonably requested or required by the Authority to give effect to the foregoing. The applicable costs and expenses with respect to Additional Lands contemplated in this Section 5.4 shall be borne as provided in the related Agreed Modification and the applicable costs and expenses with respect to Additional Lands contemplated by Section 5.4(b) shall be borne by the Authority.

(d) Pre-existing Environmental Conditions. If a Party proposes a Modification that requires the acquisition of Additional Lands, that Party (or in the case of Required Modifications, the Authority) shall assume and discharge any liabilities and obligations whatsoever arising under any Environmental Law relating to the ownership, operation or condition of the Additional Lands and shall be responsible for any environmental conditions existing prior to the time of acquisition, whether or not the manifestation of which occurs following acquisition (including any Hazardous Substance or contaminant that was present or Released or migrated or escaped from or was Released from Additional Lands or otherwise existed at any time prior to the time of acquisition). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all circumstances, the Lessee shall comply with Engineering or Institutional Controls associated with such Additional Lands; provided that, prior to having any obligation to comply therewith, the Lessee shall have (i) received written notice of such Engineering or Institutional Controls from the Authority and (ii) a reasonable period of time in which to implement such controls (which period shall not exceed 60 days unless such implementation reasonably requires a longer period and the Lessee has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Authority, acting reasonably, that it is proceeding with all due diligence during such period to implement such compliance); provided further that in the case of environmental conditions for which the Authority is responsible pursuant to the preceding sentence, prior to having any obligation to comply therewith, the Lessee shall have received notice of such Engineering or Institutional Controls from the Authority; and provided further that the Lessee may submit any dispute with respect to such obligation to dispute resolution in accordance with Article 19.

ARTICLE 6
OPERATING STANDARDS

Section 6.1 Compliance with Operating Standards. The Lessee shall, and shall cause the LMM Airport Facility Operations to, comply with and implement the Operating Standards in all material respects at all times during the Term (including any changes or modifications to the Operating Standards made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Use Agreement); provided that the Lessee shall have a reasonable period of time (a) following the Closing Date to carry out changes to the operations of the LMM Airport Facility in order to cause the LMM Airport Facility to comply with the Operating Standards in effect as of the Closing Date, to the extent the LMM Airport Facility is not in compliance therewith as of the Closing Date (which period of time shall not exceed 180 days; provided that such 180-day period will be extended for a reasonable period of time for the Lessee to cure such noncompliance (i) if such noncompliance cannot be cured within 180 days, (ii) if such noncompliance is susceptible to a cure and (iii) for long as the Lessee is proceeding with diligence and in good faith to cure such noncompliance), and (b) from time to time to comply with the introduction of changes or modifications to the Operating Standards that are made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Use Agreement (which period of time shall not exceed 90 days, except as otherwise may be provided in the revised Operating Standards; provided that such 90-day period will be extended for a reasonable period of time for the Lessee to cure such noncompliance (i) if such noncompliance cannot be cured within 90 days, (ii) if such noncompliance is susceptible to a cure and (iii) for long as the Lessee is proceeding with diligence and in good faith to cure such noncompliance). The Authority and the Lessee acknowledge and agree that the Operating Standards shall be construed flexibly in light of their objectives. The Lessee shall have in place procedures that are reasonably designed to achieve compliance with the Operating Standards. The Operating Standards shall not be deemed to be violated by occasional, isolated acts or omissions, including any occasional, isolated failure to comply with specific requirements set forth therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any non-recurring failure to meet specific time limits, durations or frequencies set forth in the Operating Standards shall not constitute a violation; provided that the Lessee is not deliberately violating or failing to comply with such requirements; and provided further that any such violation or failure is not inconsistent with procedures and immediate affirmative corrective steps that are reasonably designed to achieve, through the Lessee’s best efforts, compliance with the requirements set forth in the Operating Standards. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement or the Use Agreement (including the Operating Standards), the Lessee shall perform all work required to comply with and implement the Operating Standards (including the capital improvements described therein) as part of the LMM Airport Facility Operations and at its sole cost and expense. To the extent that any term or provision of the Operating Standards conflicts with any term or provision otherwise specified in this Agreement, then such term or provision of this Agreement shall govern and shall supersede any such conflicting term or provision in the Operating Standards. To the extent that any term or

provision of the Operating Standards conflicts with any term or provision otherwise specified in either the Part 139 Airport Certification Manual (including any subsequently-issued amendments thereto as issued by the FAA) or the TSA-approved Airport Security Program (including any subsequently-issued requirements thereunder as issued by TSA), then such term or provision of the Part 139 Airport Certification Manual or the TSA-approved Airport Security Program, as applicable, shall govern and shall supersede any such conflicting term or provision in the Operating Standards.

Section 6.2 Modified Operating Standards.

(a) The Authority shall have the right, at any time during the Term, to modify or change the Operating Standards upon reasonable notice to the Lessee to comply with any new Law or FAA or TSA directive or requirement applicable to the LMM Airport Facility, so long as such Law does not constitute an Adverse Action and such modification or change is permitted under the Use Agreement. In the event that the Authority modifies or changes the Operating Standards in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Lessee, at its cost and expense, shall perform all work required to implement such modification or changes and shall comply with all such modifications or changes and in no event shall the Lessee be excused from compliance with any such modification or change. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lessee will have the right to challenge any modified Operating Standard pursuant to Article 19 on the basis that it does not meet the requirement set forth above.

(b) The Authority shall have the right, at any time during the Term, to propose a change to the Operating Standards upon reasonable notice to the Lessee to conform the Operating Standards to standards or practices generally adopted at Comparable Public Airports. Promptly upon receipt of such proposed change, the Lessee shall in good faith engage the Authority to determine whether such proposed change is necessary to satisfy the requirement set forth above. If the Lessee does not agree that such proposed change is necessary to satisfy the requirement set forth above, the Lessee shall provide prompt written notice of such disagreement to the Authority. Following the receipt by the Authority of such notice from the Lessee, the parties shall work together in good faith to resolve such disagreement, including by discussing alternative changes to the Operating Standards and examining the standards or practices generally adopted at Comparable Public Airports. If the Lessee and the Authority are unable to resolve such disagreement, the matter may be submitted to dispute resolution under the provisions of Article 19.

(c) If, during the Term, the Authority is of the opinion that a modification or change to the Operating Standards is necessary or desirable but such modification or change is not subject to Sections 6.2(a) or 6.2(b), the Authority may upon reasonable notice to the Lessee modify or change the Operating Standards, subject to obtaining prior authorization from the GDB; provided, however, that the Authority shall pay the Leasehold Compensation, if any, to the Lessee with respect thereto at the time such modification or change is implemented. The Lessee shall perform all work required to implement and shall comply with all such modifications and changes, and in no event shall the Lessee be excused from compliance with any such modification or change. The Authority shall have the right to undertake the work necessary to ensure implementation of and compliance with any modification or change to the Operating Standards if the Lessee fails to do so within a reasonable period of time; provided, however, that to the extent

that such work is undertaken by the Authority, the Lessee shall pay to the Authority within 10 Business Days following demand therefor, or the Authority may offset from amounts owing to the Lessee in connection with such modification or change, the costs of the portion of the work performed in order to comply with the Operating Standards existing immediately prior to such modification or change, and the Authority shall be responsible only for the incremental costs of the additional work required in order to implement such proposed modification or change to the Operating Standards and, without duplication with the foregoing, the Leasehold Compensation with respect to such modification or change.

(d) If the Lessee, at its cost and expense, wishes to modify the Operating Standards, the Lessee must obtain the Approval of the Authority and the approval of the Signatory Airlines in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement) in accordance with the following:

(i) The Lessee shall submit the proposed modifications to the Authority for Approval and to the Signatory Airlines for approval in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement), together with an explanation of the Lessee’s rationale for making its proposal and all relevant supporting information, certificates, reports, studies, investigations and other materials as are necessary to demonstrate that the Lessee’s proposed modifications are reasonably designed to achieve the objectives of the applicable Operating Standards. The Authority or a Signatory Airline may request any additional supporting information, certificates, reports, studies, investigations and other materials as are reasonably required to determine if the Lessee’s proposed modifications are reasonably designed to achieve the objectives of the applicable Operating Standards.

(ii) Approval of the Lessee’s proposed modifications may be withheld, delayed or conditioned only if there is a reasonable basis to determine that the Lessee’s proposed operating standards are not reasonably designed to achieve the objectives of the applicable Operating Standards. Until the modifications are approved by the Authority and the requisite number of Signatory Airlines in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement), the Lessee shall not implement the proposed modifications. The Lessee’s proposed modifications shall be deemed incorporated into the Operating Standards upon approval by the Authority and the Signatory Airlines in accordance with the terms hereof. If the Authority or the requisite number of Signatory Airlines refuses to approve any proposed modifications and the Lessee disagrees with such refusal, the Lessee may submit the matter to dispute resolution under the provisions of Article 11 of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither the Authority nor a Signatory Airline may withhold, delay or condition the approval of any proposed modification to the Operating Standards if the Lessee reasonably believes that such proposed modification is necessary to comply with the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate, the TSA-approved Airport Security Program or any other requirements of Law or FAA or TSA directive or requirement; provided that the Authority and the Signatory Airlines each reserves the right to contest any such proposed modification, including by seeking FAA or TSA guidance or interpretation to the extent that the Authority or Signatory Airline reasonably believes that such proposed modification is not reasonably designed to achieve the objective of compliance with either the Part 139 Airport

Operating Certificate, the TSA-approved Airport Security Program or other requirement of Law. Any such contest shall be asserted by the Authority or the Signatory Airline, as appropriate, by giving the Lessee prompt notice thereof in accordance with Section 3.4(d) of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement). Following the receipt by the Lessee of such notice, the Lessee and the Authority or Signatory Airline, as appropriate, shall work together in good faith to resolve such contest, including by working with the FAA or the TSA, as appropriate. If the Lessee and the Authority or Signatory Airline, as appropriate, are unable to resolve such contest, the matter may be submitted to dispute resolution under the provisions of Article 11 of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement). The Lessee may implement (and continue to implement) any proposed modification to the Operating Standards that it reasonably believes is necessary to comply with the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate, the TSA-approved Airport Security Program or other requirement of Law while it works in good faith with the Authority or Signatory Airline, as appropriate, to resolve any contest regarding the implementation of such modification.

(b) Indemnification by the Authority. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Authority shall indemnify and hold harmless the Lessee and each of its Representatives from and against any Losses actually suffered or incurred by the Lessee or any such Representative as a result of any Third Party Claims arising from (i) any Excluded Liabilities or (ii) pre-existing environmental conditions on Additional Lands described in Section 5.4 to the extent that the Authority requires the acquisition of Additional Lands under Section 5.2; provided, however, that such Third Party Claims are made in writing within a period of three years following the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Agreement or within such shorter period as may be prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations.

(c) Notice of Third Party Claim. If an Indemnified Party receives notice of the commencement or assertion of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifier reasonably prompt notice thereof, but in any event no later than 30 days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. Such notice to the Indemnifier shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail (and include a copy of any complaint or related documents) and shall indicate, if reasonably practicable, the estimated amount of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

(d) Defense of Third Party Claim. The Indemnifier may participate in or assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party not later than 30 days after receiving notice of that Third Party Claim (the “Notice Period”); provided, however, that the Indemnifier shall not be permitted to assume the defense of such Third

Party Claim to the extent such assumption would adversely impact any defense asserted by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifier’s right to do so shall be subject to the rights of any insurer or other Party who has potential responsibility with respect of that Third Party Claim. The Indemnifier agrees to pay all of its own expenses of participating in or assuming each defense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in the defense of each Third Party Claim, even if the defense has been assumed by the Indemnifier and may participate in such defense assisted by counsel of its own choice at its own expense. If the Indemnified Party has not received notice within the Notice Period that the Indemnifier has elected to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may assume such defense, assisted by counsel of its own choosing and the Indemnifier shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith and any Loss suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(e) Assistance for Third Party Claims. The Indemnifier and the Indemnified Party will use all Reasonable Efforts to make available to the Party which is undertaking and controlling the defense of any Third Party Claim (the “Defending Party”) (i) those employees whose assistance, testimony and presence is necessary to assist the Defending Party in evaluating and in defending any Third Party Claim and (ii) to the extent permitted by Law, all documents, records and other materials in the possession of such Party reasonably required by the Defending Party for its use in defending any Third Party Claim, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Defending Party.

(f) Settlement of Third Party Claims. If an Indemnifier elects to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.1(d), the Indemnifier shall not be responsible for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim. However, if the Indemnifier fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within 30 days after receiving notice from the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party believes on reasonable grounds that the Indemnifier has failed to take such steps, the Indemnified Party may, at its option, elect to assume the defense of and to compromise or settle the Third Party Claim assisted by counsel of its own choosing and the Indemnifier shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without obtaining the prior written consent of the Indemnifier unless such settlement or compromise is made without any responsibility to, and does not require any action on the part of, the Indemnifier and does not in any way adversely affect the Indemnifier.

Section 12.3 Losses Net of Insurance; Reductions and Subrogation.

(a) For purposes of this Article 12, the amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be reduced by any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Losses, it being understood that the obligations of the Indemnifier hereunder shall not be so reduced to the extent that any such

recovery results in an increase in the Indemnified Party’s insurance premiums, or results in any other additional cost or expense to any such Indemnified Party.

(b) If the amount of any Loss incurred by an Indemnified Party at any time subsequent to the making of a payment required under this Article 12 on account of such Losses (an “Indemnity Payment”) is reduced by any subsequent recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, the amount of such reduction (less any costs, expenses (including Taxes) or premiums incurred or increased in connection therewith), together with interest thereon from the date of such recovery, settlement or reduction at the Bank Rate, shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifier.

(c) Upon making a full Indemnity Payment, the Indemnifier shall, to the extent of such Indemnity Payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Loss to which the Indemnity Payment relates. Until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of its Loss, any and all claims of the Indemnifier against any such third party on account of such Indemnity Payment shall be postponed and subordinated in right of payment to the Indemnified Party’s rights against such third party.

Section 12.4 Payment and Interest. All amounts to be paid by an Indemnifier hereunder shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Bank Rate, calculated annually and payable monthly, both before and after judgment, from the date that the Indemnified Party disbursed funds, suffered damages or losses or incurred a loss or expense in respect of a Loss for which the Indemnifier is responsible to make payment pursuant to this Article 12, to the date of payment by the Indemnifier to the Indemnified Party.

Section 12.5 Offset Rights; Limitations on Certain Damages.

(a) Any other provision herein notwithstanding, each Party’s obligations under this Agreement are subject to, and each Party shall have the benefit of, all defenses, counterclaims, rights of offset or recoupment or other claims and rights, including the right to deduct payments due to the other Party hereunder (collectively, “Offsets”) which such Party may have at any time against such other Party (or any of their respective successors and assigns) or any transferee or assignee of any such other Party’s rights hereunder (to the extent permitted hereunder) as against such Party or any part thereof or interest therein, whether the claim or right of such Party relied upon for such purpose is matured or unmatured, contingent or otherwise, and no transfer or assignment of this Agreement or any other obligation of such other Party, or of any rights in respect thereof, pursuant to any plan of reorganization or liquidation or otherwise shall affect or impair the availability to each Party of the Offsets; provided that in no event shall any Party’s right to Offsets permit such Party to exercise such right in a manner that would reduce the LMM Airport Facility Leasehold Value to an amount that is less than the Leasehold Mortgage Debt.

(b) In no event shall any Party be responsible to the other Party under this Agreement for consequential, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages (except for claims by the Authority against the Lessee for fraud or for intentional misrepresentation or intentional breach), nor shall a Party be obligated to indemnify any other Party or any other Person with respect to any Losses or damages caused by the fraud of such other Party or Person.

All Required Coverages shall provide for 30 days’ (or in the case of cancellation for non-payment of premiums, 10 days’) prior notice to be given to the Authority by the insurer in the event coverage is substantially changed, canceled or non-renewed. The Authority shall be permitted (but not obligated) to pay any delinquent premiums before the cancellation date specified by the insurer in any notice of cancellation for non-payment of premium in order to maintain such coverage in full force and effect and the Lessee shall reimburse the Authority for any delinquent premiums paid by the Authority on demand without any days of grace and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of the Authority hereunder. The Lessee shall not cancel, terminate, materially change to the detriment of the Authority or replace any Required Coverage.

(c) Deductibles. All Required Coverages may contain deductibles or self-insured retentions not to exceed amounts consistent with market practice at Comparable Public

103

Airports. Any and all deductibles or self-insured retentions on Required Coverages shall be borne by the Lessee or its Contractors.

(d) Inflation Adjustment. The amounts of coverage required by Section 13.1 shall be Adjusted for Inflation each succeeding fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

(e) Waiver of Subrogation by Insurers. Each of the Required Coverages shall include a waiver by the insurer of its rights of subrogation against the Authority, its employees, elected officials, agents or representatives.

(f) Authority’s Right to Insure. If the Lessee fails to obtain and maintain or cause to be obtained and maintained the insurance required by this Article 13, the Authority shall have the right (without any obligation to do so), upon two Business Days’ notice to the Lessee in a non-emergency situation or forthwith in an emergency situation and without assuming any obligation in connection therewith, to effect such insurance and all costs and expenses of the Authority in connection therewith shall be payable by the Lessee to the Authority on demand without any days of grace and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of the Authority hereunder. Such insurance taken out by the Authority shall not relieve the Lessee of its obligations to insure hereunder and the Authority shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Lessee in connection therewith.

(g) No Limitation as to Lessee Liabilities. The Lessee expressly understands and agrees that any coverages and limits furnished by the Lessee shall in no way limit the Lessee’s liabilities and responsibilities specified within this Agreement or by Law.

(h) No Contribution by Authority. The Lessee expressly understands and agrees that any insurance or self-insurance programs maintained by the Authority shall not contribute with insurance provided by the Lessee under this Agreement.

(i) Insurance Not Limited by Indemnification. The required insurance shall not be limited by any limitations expressed in the indemnification language herein or any limitation placed on the indemnity therein given as a matter of Law.

(j) Insurance Requirements of Contractors and Subtenants. The Lessee shall require in each contract with any Contractor or subtenant (where such Contractor or subtenant is not covered by the Required Coverages) that such Contractor or subtenant obtain coverages reasonably comparable to the Required Coverages that are reasonably appropriate in their limits and other terms and conditions to the nature of the contract with the Contractor or subtenant. Such coverages shall insure the interests of the Authority, its employees, elected officials, agents and representatives, the Lessee and any other Contractors or subtenants in respect of the applicable work being performed and shall be subject to the same (or comparable) coverage and administrative requirements as are imposed on the Lessee pursuant to this Agreement. When requested to do so by the Authority, the Lessee shall provide or cause to be provided to the Authority certificates of insurance with respect to such insurance coverages or such other evidence of insurance, reasonably acceptable in form and content to the Authority. The provisions of this Section 13.2(j) shall not apply to any Airline that is a party to the Use Agreement (or any subsequent use agreement with respect to the LMM Airport Facility), the obligations of which to

104

obtain and maintain insurance shall be governed solely by the Use Agreement, or such subsequent amendment, modification or replacement thereof.

(k) Joint Venture and Limited Liability Company Policies. If the Lessee or any Contractor required to obtain an insurance policy hereunder is a joint venture or limited liability company, all insurance policies required to be obtained by the Lessee or such Contractor shall specifically name the joint venture or limited liability company as a named insured.

(l) Other Insurance Obtained by Lessee. If the Lessee or its Contractors or subtenants desire coverages in addition to the Required Coverages, the Lessee and each Contractor or subtenant shall be responsible for the acquisition and cost of such additional coverages. If the Lessee or its Contractors or subtenants obtain any property, liability or other insurance coverages in addition to the Required Coverages (“Additional Coverages”), then the Lessee or its Contractors shall (i) notify the Authority as to such Additional Coverages, (ii) provide the Authority with any documentation relating to the Additional Coverages, including certificates of insurance, that the Authority reasonably requests and (iii) at the Authority’s election, cause the Authority elected or appointed officials, agents and representatives to be named as additional insureds under such Additional Coverages.

(m) Cooperation. The Authority and the Lessee shall do all acts, matters and things as may be reasonably necessary or required to expedite the adjustment of any loss or damage covered by insurance hereunder so as to expedite the release and dedication of proceeds of such insurance in the manner and for the purposes herein contemplated.

(n) Authority’s Right to Modify. The Authority shall have the right to modify, delete, alter or change insurance coverage requirements set forth in Section 13.1 and this Section 13.2 to reflect known material changes in insurance coverages for Comparable Public Airports or known material changes in insurance exposures associated with the LMM Airport Facility and the Lessee shall promptly comply therewith and shall not have any obligation to procure or maintain at its cost any additional insurance unless an independent insurance consultant shall have delivered to the Lessee its opinion to the effect that the additional coverages are required pursuant to the above-stated criteria and such additional coverages are commercially available at reasonable rates.

(o) Commercial Availability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any insurance (including the limits or deductibles thereof) required to be maintained under this Agreement shall not be available at commercially reasonable rates, the Lessee shall have the right to request that the Authority consent to waive such requirement. Any such waiver shall be effective only so long as such insurance shall not be available at commercially reasonable rates; provided that during the period of such waiver, the Lessee maintains the maximum amount of such insurance otherwise available at commercially reasonable rates. The Authority shall reasonably consider a request by the Lessee for a waiver under this Section 13.2(o) if the request is supported by a determination by an internationally recognized independent insurance consultant (i) that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates and (ii) of the amount of such insurance which is available at commercially reasonable rates. The Authority shall consult with the Signatory Airlines prior to granting any such waiver.

105

Section 13.3 Damage and Destruction.

(a) Obligations of Lessee. If all or any part of the LMM Airport Facility shall be destroyed or damaged during the Term in whole or in part by fire or other casualty of any kind or nature (including any casualty for which insurance was not obtained or obtainable), ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, the Lessee shall: (i) give the Authority notice thereof promptly after the Lessee receives actual notice of such casualty; (ii) at its sole cost and expense, whether or not insurance proceeds, if any, shall be equal to the estimated cost of repairs, alterations, restorations, replacement and rebuilding (the “Casualty Cost”), proceed diligently to Restore the same and (iii) deposit all insurance proceeds received by the Lessee in connection with any Restoration with a Depositary; provided, however, that if at any time the Casualty Cost exceeds the net insurance proceeds deposited with the Depository or reasonably anticipated to be actually deposited with the Depositary, then the Lessee shall also deposit with the Depository such cash as is sufficient to cover the difference between the Casualty Cost and the net insurance proceeds (such net insurance proceeds and such additional cash, together with any interest earned thereon, the “Restoration Funds”); provided further that the procedures of this clause (iii) of this Section 13.3(a) shall only apply to casualty events in which the cost of Restoration exceeds $5,000,000, as Adjusted for Inflation.

(b) Rights of Authority. If (i) the Lessee shall fail or neglect to commence the diligent Restoration of the LMM Airport Facility or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed, (ii) having so commenced such Restoration, the Lessee shall fail to diligently complete the same in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (iii) prior to the completion of any such Restoration by the Lessee, this Agreement shall expire or be terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Authority may, but shall not be required to, complete such Restoration at the Lessee’s expense and shall be entitled to be paid out of the Restoration Funds for the relevant Restoration costs incurred by the Authority. In any case where this Agreement shall expire or be terminated prior to the completion of the Restoration, the Lessee shall (A) account to the Authority for all amounts spent in connection with any Restoration which was undertaken, (B) immediately pay over or cause the Depositary to pay over to the Authority the remainder, if any, of the Restoration Funds received by the Lessee prior to such termination or cancellation and (C) pay over or cause the Depositary to pay over to the Authority, within 30 days after receipt thereof, any Restoration Funds received by the Lessee or the Depositary subsequent to such termination or cancellation. The Lessee’s obligations under this Section 13.3(b) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. To the extent the Authority is a loss payee with respect to any such insurance proceeds or otherwise receives insurance proceeds with respect to the destroyed or damaged portions of the LMM Airport Facility, the Authority shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) all such insurance proceeds with the Depositary for application pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Payment of Restoration Funds to Lessee. Subject to the satisfaction by the Lessee of all of the terms and conditions of this Section 13.3 and the requirements of the Leasehold Mortgagee, the Depositary shall pay to the Lessee from time to time any Restoration Funds, but not more than the amount actually collected by the Depositary upon the loss, together with any interest earned thereon, after reimbursing itself therefrom, as well as the Authority, to the extent, if any, of the reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Depositary and the Authority in the

106

collection of such monies, to be utilized by the Lessee solely for the Restoration, such payments to be made as follows:

(i) prior to commencing any Restoration, the Lessee shall furnish to the Authority for its Approval the estimated cost, estimated schedule and detailed plan for the completion of the Restoration, each prepared by an architect or engineer;

(ii) the Restoration Funds shall be paid to the Lessee in installments as the Restoration progresses, subject to Section 13.3(c)(iii), based upon requisitions to be submitted by the Lessee to the Depositary and the Authority in compliance with Section 13.3(d), showing the cost of labor and materials purchased for incorporation in the Restoration, or incorporated therein since the previous requisition, and due and payable or paid by the Lessee; provided, however, that if any lien, other than any Permitted Lessee Encumbrance, is filed against the LMM Airport Facility or any part thereof in connection with the Restoration, the Lessee shall not be entitled to receive any further installment until such lien is satisfied or discharged (by bonding or otherwise); provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section 13.3(c)(iii), the existence of any such lien shall not preclude the Lessee from receiving any installment of Restoration Funds so long as such lien will be discharged with funds from such installment and at the time the Lessee receives such installment the Lessee delivers to the Authority and the Depositary a release of such lien executed by the lienor and in recordable form;

(iii) the amount of each installment to be paid to the Lessee shall be the aggregate amount of Casualty Costs theretofor incurred by the Lessee minus the aggregate amount of Restoration Funds theretofor paid to the Lessee in connection therewith, less 10% of such amount as a retainage (which 10% retainage shall be released to the Lessee upon completion of the Restoration work), except that such retainage shall not include any amounts for architects’ or engineers’ fees or permitting or other governmental fees in connection with the Restoration or with respect to each Contractor upon the final completion of each such Contractor’s respective work, provided that the unapplied portion of the funds held by the Depositary is sufficient to complete the Restoration; provided, however, that all disbursements to the Lessee shall be made based upon an architect’s or engineer’s certificate for payment in accordance with industry standards, and disbursements may be made for advance deposits for material and Contractors to the extent that such disbursements are customary in the industry and provided that the unapplied portion of the funds held by the Depositary is sufficient to complete the Restoration; and

(iv) except as provided in Section 13.3(b), upon completion of and payment for the Restoration by the Lessee, subject to the rights of any Leasehold Mortgagee, the Depositary shall pay the balance of the Restoration Funds, if any, to the Lessee; provided, however, that if the insurance proceeds are insufficient to pay for the Restoration (or if there shall be no insurance proceeds), the Lessee shall nevertheless be required to make the Restoration and provide the deficiency in funds necessary to complete the Restoration as provided in Section 13.3(a)(iii).

(d) Conditions of Payment. The following shall be conditions precedent to each payment made to the Lessee as provided in Section 13.3(c):

107

(e) Payment and Performance Bonds. If the Lessee obtains payment or performance bonds related to a Restoration (which the Lessee may or may not obtain in its discretion), the Lessee shall name the Authority and the Lessee and the Leasehold Mortgagee, as their interests may appear, as additional obligees, and shall deliver copies of any such bonds to the Authority promptly upon obtaining them.

(f) Benefit of Authority. The requirements of this Section 13.3 are for the benefit only of the Authority, and no Contractor or other Person shall have or acquire any claim against the Authority as a result of any failure of the Authority actually to undertake or complete any Restoration as provided in this Section 13.3 or to obtain the evidence, certifications and other documentation provided for herein.

(g) Investment of Restoration Funds. Restoration Funds deposited with a Depositary shall be invested and reinvested in Eligible Investments at the direction of the Lessee, and all interest earned on such investments shall be added to the Restoration Funds.

108

(h) Rights of Leasehold Mortgagee. The provisions of Section 13.3 are subject to the rights of any Leasehold Mortgagee under the documents relating to any Leasehold Mortgage Debt.

ARTICLE 14
ADVERSE ACTIONS

Section 14.1 Adverse Action.

(a) An “Adverse Action” shall occur if the Authority or any other Governmental Authority established under the Laws of the Commonwealth takes action or actions at any time during the Term (including enacting any Law) and the effect of such action or actions, individually or in the aggregate, is reasonably expected (i) to be principally borne by the Lessee or private operators of Comparable Public Airports or Contratantes and (ii) to have a material adverse effect on the fair market value of the Lessee Interest, except where (A) such action is in response to any act or omission on the part of the Lessee that (1) is illegal (before taking into account the applicable government action) or (2) constitutes nonperformance by the Lessee or (B) such action is otherwise permitted under this Agreement; provided, however, that none of the following shall be an Adverse Action: (x) the exercise of law enforcement, subpoena or investigatory powers of the Authority or any Governmental Authority as permitted under this Agreement or applicable Law; (y) the imposition of a Tax or an increase in Taxes of general application, including parking Taxes of general application imposed on users or operators of parking facilities or Contratantes or (z) the development, redevelopment, construction, maintenance, modification or change in the operation of any existing mode of transportation that results in the reduction of any revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility or in the number of users using the LMM Airport Facility.

(b) If an Adverse Action occurs, the Lessee shall have the right to receive Leasehold Compensation from the Authority with respect thereto (such Leasehold Compensation, the “AA-Compensation”); provided, however, that if the Adverse Action constitutes an expropriation, sequestration or requisition of all or a material part of the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Assets, the Use Agreement, and the Lessee Interest (or any of them) or materially impedes, substantially frustrates or renders impossible the Lessee’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder continuously for 90 days, then the Lessee shall have the right either (i) to be paid the AA-Compensation with respect thereto or (ii) to terminate this Agreement and be paid by the Authority any AA-Termination Damages, in each case by giving notice in the manner described in Section 14.1(c).

(c) Within 90 days following the date on which the Lessee first became aware of the Adverse Action, the Lessee shall give notice (the “AA-Preliminary Notice”) to the Authority stating that an Adverse Action has occurred. Within 180 days following the date of delivery of the AA-Preliminary Notice, the Lessee shall give the Authority another notice (the “AA-Notice”) setting forth (i) details of such Adverse Action, (ii) details of the material adverse effect of such Adverse Action on the fair market value of the Lessee Interest, (iii) a statement as to which right

109

referred to in Section 14.1(b) the Lessee elects to exercise, and (iv) if the Lessee elects to exercise the right to Leasehold Compensation under Section 14.1(b), the amount claimed as AA-Compensation and details of the calculation thereof. The Authority shall, after receipt of the AA-Notice, be entitled by notice to require the Lessee to provide such further supporting particulars as the Authority may reasonably consider necessary. If the Authority or the GDB, as the case may be, wishes to dispute the occurrence of an Adverse Action or the amount of AA-Compensation, if any, claimed in the AA-Notice, it shall give notice of dispute (the “AA-Dispute Notice”) to the Lessee within 30 days following the date of receipt by it of the AA-Notice stating in reasonable detail the grounds for such dispute. If neither the AA-Notice nor the AA-Dispute Notice has been withdrawn within 30 days following the date of receipt of the AA-Dispute Notice by the Lessee, the matter shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19.

(d) If the Lessee has elected to exercise its right to AA-Compensation, the Authority shall pay the amount of Leasehold Compensation claimed by the Lessee within 60 days following the date of receipt of the AA-Notice, or if a AA-Dispute Notice has been given, then not later than 60 days following the date of determination of the AA-Compensation (together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 from the date of receipt of the AA-Dispute Notice to the date on which payment is made); provided that the Authority shall provide the AA-Compensation in accordance with Section 15.1(b) as if the related AA-Notice were a CE-Notice; and provided further that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the date of receipt of the AA-Dispute Notice to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority determines, in its discretion, that such additional period is necessary in order to obtain financing or otherwise to obtain the necessary funds to make such a payment.

Section 14.2 Termination.

(a) If the Lessee has the right to terminate this Agreement in connection with an Adverse Action pursuant to Section 14.1, and the Lessee has exercised such right, this Agreement, subject to Section 14.3, shall terminate 120 days following the date of receipt of the AA-Notice by the Authority, and on the Reversion Date the Authority shall pay an amount (which amount shall be paid from general Authority funds and not from LMM Airport Facility revenues) equal to the aggregate, without duplication, of (i) the LMM Airport Facility Leasehold Value as of the date of termination (which shall be determined as if no Adverse Action has occurred), plus (ii) the reasonable out-of-pocket and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Lessee as a direct result of such termination, plus (iii) the Leasehold Compensation calculated for the period between the date of the Adverse Action and the Reversion Date, less (iv) any insurance or condemnation proceeds payable to the Lessee (or that should have been payable to the Lessee but for (x) the insurer’s inability to pay, (y) the breach by the Lessee of an obligation to take out or maintain insurance under this Agreement or (z) the invalidity or breach of any insurance policy caused by the Lessee under which such policy proceeds would have been paid) with respect to all or any portion of the LMM Airport Facility as a result of the occurrence of such Adverse Action (collectively, the “AA-Termination Damages”) to the Lessee on the Reversion Date or, if the AA-Termination Damages are determined on a date subsequent to the Reversion Date, then not later than 60 days following the date of determination of the AA-Termination Damages (together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 from the Reversion Date to the date on which payment

110

is made); provided that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the Reversion Date to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing or required approvals to make such a payment; provided, however, that any amounts received by the Lessee or any Leasehold Mortgagee from any insurance policies payable as a result of damage or destruction to the LMM Airport Facility that has not been remedied prior to the Reversion Date, shall, to the extent not used to remedy such effects, be deducted from the amount payable by the Authority to the Lessee so long as the Authority has not received any such amounts pursuant to Article 13.

(b) Any dispute arising out of the determination of the AA-Termination Damages shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19.

(c) No AA-Notice given by the Lessee to the Authority in which the Lessee states that it elects to exercise its right of termination of this Agreement shall be valid for any purpose unless, if any Leasehold Mortgage Debt remains outstanding and if and to the extent required by the terms of any Leasehold Mortgage, the Lessee has first obtained and delivered to the Authority the written consent of the Leasehold Mortgagee to such AA-Notice.

(d) Payment of the entire sum of AA-Termination Damages or the AA-Compensation, as the case may be, by the Authority to the Lessee, shall constitute full and final satisfaction of all amounts that may be claimed by the Lessee for and with respect to the occurrence of the Adverse Action and, upon such payment, the Authority shall be released and forever discharged by the Lessee from any and all liability with respect to such Adverse Action.

Section 14.3 Right of Authority to Remedy an Adverse Action. If the Authority wishes to remedy the occurrence of an Adverse Action, the Authority shall give notice thereof to the Lessee within 30 days following the date of receipt of the AA-Notice. If the Authority gives such notice, it must remedy the Adverse Action within 180 days following the date of receipt of the AA-Notice or, if a AA-Dispute Notice has been given, within 180 days following the final award pursuant to Article 19 to the effect that an Adverse Action occurred or, in either case, within such longer period as may be agreed to by the Lessee. If the Authority remedies the occurrence of an Adverse Action within the applicable period of time, the right of the Lessee shall be limited to a claim for AA-Compensation with respect to such Adverse Action.

ARTICLE 15
LEASEHOLD COMPENSATION; DELAY EVENTS

Section 15.1 Payment of Leasehold Compensation.

(a) Notice. Except as otherwise provided herein, if a Compensation Event occurs, the Lessee shall give notice (the “CE-Preliminary Notice”) to the Authority within 90 days following the date on which the Lessee first became aware of the Compensation Event stating that a Compensation Event has occurred. Within 30 days following the date of delivery of the CE-Preliminary Notice, the Lessee shall give the Authority another notice (the “CE-Notice”) setting forth (i) details of the Compensation Event, including a specific explanation of the reasons that the

111

event constitutes a Compensation Event under the terms of this Agreement and (ii) the amount claimed as Leasehold Compensation and details of the calculation thereof. If the Authority or the GDB, as the case may be, wishes to dispute the occurrence of a Compensation Event or the amount of the Leasehold Compensation claimed in the CE-Notice, it shall give notice of dispute (the “CE-Dispute Notice”) to the Lessee within 60 days following the date of receipt by it of the CE-Notice stating the grounds for such dispute. If neither the CE-Notice nor the CE-Dispute Notice has been withdrawn within 30 days following the date of receipt of the CE-Dispute Notice by the Lessee, the matter shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19.

(b) Payment. Within 60 days following the date of receipt of a CE-Notice, or if a CE-Dispute Notice has been given as provided in Section 15.1(a) and not withdrawn (and the CE-Notice is not otherwise withdrawn by the Lessee), then not later than 60 days following the date of determination of the related Leasehold Compensation (the later of such dates being referred to herein as a “Compensation Date”), the Authority (except to the extent the Authority elects to provide the related Leasehold Compensation in accordance with Section 15.1(c)), shall pay the related Leasehold Compensation in cash, which Leasehold Compensation shall be then due and payable to the Lessee (except as otherwise provided in Section 15.1(e) and together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 from the date of receipt of the CE-Dispute Notice to the date on which payment is made); provided that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the Leasehold Compensation owed by the Authority from the date of receipt of the CE-Dispute Notice to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer the provision of any such Leasehold Compensation for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing or required approvals to provide such Leasehold Compensation to the Lessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as provided in Section 15.1(e), in the event of a dispute regarding the amount of Leasehold Compensation, the Authority shall pay to the Lessee any undisputed portion of such Leasehold Compensation and any portion of such Leasehold Compensation that is subsequently agreed between the Parties, in each case not later than 60 days following the date that the Parties have agreed to such portion (together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 from the date of receipt of the CE-Dispute Notice to the date on which payment is made) (even if a dispute regarding a portion of the amount claimed by the Lessee is still pending); provided that the Authority shall have the right to defer providing such Leasehold Compensation for an additional 120 days under the terms set forth in the preceding sentence.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and to the extent such Leasehold Compensation is not payable as part of Termination Damages and is not otherwise paid pursuant to Section 15.1(b), the Authority may elect (subject to Section 15.1(c)(ii) and (iii) and to the extent permitted by applicable Law) to provide any Leasehold Compensation due to the Lessee hereunder by extending the Term for a period of time that would be sufficient to restore the Lessee to the same economic position in which it would have been had such Compensation Event not occurred (subject to the prior receipt of any approval or Authorization necessary to extend the Term under the Act and otherwise in compliance with applicable Law). The Authority shall make such election by notice delivered to the Lessee not later than the related Compensation Date, which notice shall specify the amount of Leasehold Compensation to be provided pursuant to this Section 15.1(c).

112

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 15.1(c)(i), the Authority may not provide Lessee Compensation pursuant to Section 15.1(c)(i) in an amount that (A) cumulatively with all other amounts of Leasehold Compensation previously provided pursuant to Section 15.1(c)(i) would exceed $25,000,000 during the Term, (B) cumulatively with all other amounts of Leasehold Compensation previously provided pursuant to Section 15.1(c)(i) would exceed $10,000,000 prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing or (C) in any year after the fifth anniversary of the Closing, cumulatively with all other amounts of Leasehold Compensation previously provided in such year pursuant to Section 15.1(c)(i) would exceed $1,000,000 in such year; provided that each of the foregoing dollar amounts shall be Adjusted for Inflation on each anniversary of the Closing during the Term; provided further that this Section 15.1(c)(ii) and its limitations do not apply to Leasehold Compensation due pursuant to a Delay Event Remedy.

(iii) Notwithstanding Section 15.1(c)(i), the Authority may not provide Leasehold Compensation pursuant to Section 15.1(c)(i) in respect of the Compensation Events contemplated by Section 2.5(i)(iii)(B) or Section 5.2(a).

(d) Calculation. Leasehold Compensation shall be sufficient to compensate the Lessee for (i) all documented Losses (including increased operating, financing and capital and maintenance costs, but excluding any costs and expenses that the Lessee would otherwise expend or incur in order to comply with this Agreement or in the ordinary course of the performance of the LMM Airport Facility Operations or the carrying on of business in the ordinary course) that are reasonably attributable to such Compensation Event and (ii) any documented Losses of the Lessee’s present and future revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility that are reasonably attributable to such Compensation Event, after taking into account any insurance proceeds payable to the Lessee (or that should have been payable but for (A) the insurer’s inability to pay, (B) the breach of an obligation by the Lessee to take out or maintain insurance under this Agreement or (C) the invalidity or breach of any insurance policy caused by the Lessee under which policy such proceeds would have been paid) in connection with the Compensation Event, if applicable; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, notice of any claim for Leasehold Compensation shall be made in writing to the Authority within 120 days of the date that the Lessee first became aware of such Compensation Event. If the Lessee is required to expend its own funds (whether from operating cash flows or the proceeds of any debt or equity financing or otherwise) with respect to any Compensation Event prior to receipt or financing of the corresponding Leasehold Compensation or if the payment of Leasehold Compensation is deferred under Section 15.1(b), then the determination of Leasehold Compensation shall, in addition to the components described above, include such additional amounts as may be necessary to permit the Lessee to earn an after-Tax rate of return thereon at the then-applicable market-based rate of return to be agreed by the Lessee and the Authority.

(e) Future Losses. Any Leasehold Compensation payable pursuant to Section 15.1(b) with respect to Losses or lost revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility or documented Losses (including increased operation, financing and capital and maintenance costs) that will not occur until the future shall be due solely when such losses would otherwise become due or are actually incurred or suffered or promptly thereafter. If the Authority elects, notwithstanding the foregoing, to pay Leasehold Compensation with respect to Losses or lost revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility that will occur in the future as a lump sum payment, the amount of such lump sum payment shall be based on a determination of the net

113

present value of the impact of such Compensation Event over the remainder of the Term utilizing a discount factor that is reasonably determined by the Lessee (subject to the confirmation as to its reasonableness by the Authority).

(f) Minimum Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 15.1, the Lessee may not make a claim for Leasehold Compensation unless the amount of such claim exceeds $25,000.

Section 15.2 Delay Events.

(a) Notice. If a Party is affected by a Delay Event, it shall give notice as soon as practicable and in no event later than 10 Business Days following the date on which it first obtains knowledge of such Delay Event to the other Party (provided that in the case of the same Delay Event being a continuing cause of delay, only one notice shall be necessary), which notice shall include (i) a statement of which Delay Event the claim is based upon, (ii) details of the circumstances from which the delay arises and (iii) an estimate of the delay in the performance of obligations under this Agreement attributable to such Delay Event and information in support thereof, if known at that time. The Party receiving notice of a Delay Event shall, after receipt of such notice, be entitled by notice to require the Party affected by the Delay Event to provide such further supporting information or details as the Party receiving notice of the Delay Event may reasonably consider necessary. The Party affected by the Delay Event shall notify the other Party as soon as practicable and in no event later than 10 Business Days following the date on which the Party affected by the Delay Event first became aware that a Delay Event has ceased.

(b) Excused. Subject to the Party affected by the Delay Event giving the notice required in Section 15.2(a), a Delay Event shall excuse the Party affected by the Delay Event from whatever performance is prevented by the Delay Event referred to in such notice for such appropriate number of days as the Authority and the Lessee jointly determine, each acting reasonably. If the Authority and the Lessee cannot agree upon the period of delay, then either Party shall be entitled to refer the matter to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19. This Section 15.2(b) shall neither (i) excuse the Lessee from the performance and observance under this Agreement of any obligations and covenants not affected by the Delay Event nor (ii) prevent any of the Authority or its Representatives (or their respective designee) from exercising its rights under Section 3.7. Notwithstanding the occurrence of a Delay Event, the Party affected by the Delay Event shall continue its performance and observance under this Agreement of all of its obligations and covenants to the extent that it is reasonably able to do so and shall use its Reasonable Efforts to minimize the effect and duration of the Delay Event. Except as contemplated in the definition of Delay Event, nothing herein shall permit or excuse noncompliance with a change to applicable Laws.

(c) Compensation. If a Delay Event occurs that has the effect of causing physical damage or destruction to the LMM Airport Facility that results in the LMM Airport Facility being substantially unavailable for Airport Purposes or suspending airport fee collection at the LMM Airport Facility and such effect continues for a period in excess of 120 consecutive days and has a material adverse effect on the fair market value of the Lessee Interest, and insurance proceeds payable (or that should have been payable but for the breach of an obligation to take out and maintain such insurance policy by the Lessee) or condemnation or other similar proceeds are

114

insufficient to restore the Lessee to the same economic position as it would have been in the absence of such event, then the Delay Event shall be a Compensation Event for which the Lessee (without in any way limiting its obligations pursuant to Section 13.3) shall be entitled to Leasehold Compensation (a “Delay Event Remedy”).

(d) Delay Event Notice. If the Lessee elects to exercise the right to the Delay Event Remedy, the Lessee shall give notice (“Delay Event Notice”) to the Authority within 30 days following the date on which the Lessee first became aware of its right to the Delay Event Remedy setting forth (i) the details of the Delay Event and its effect on either causing physical damage or destruction to the LMM Airport Facility that results in the LMM Airport Facility being substantially unavailable for Airport Purposes or suspending airport fee collection at the LMM Airport Facility and (ii) the amount claimed as compensation to restore the Lessee to the same economic position in which it would have been had such Delay Event not occurred (including the details of the calculation thereof). The Authority shall, after receipt of the Delay Event Notice, be entitled by notice to require the Lessee to provide such further supporting information as the Authority may reasonably consider necessary. If the Authority wishes to dispute the occurrence of a Delay Event or the Delay Event Remedy claimed in the Delay Event Notice, the Authority shall give notice of dispute (the “Delay Event Dispute Notice”) to the Lessee within 30 days following the date of receipt of the Delay Event Notice stating the grounds for such dispute, and if neither the Delay Event Notice nor the Delay Event Dispute Notice has been withdrawn within 30 days following the date of receipt of the Delay Event Dispute Notice by the Lessee, the matter shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19.

(i) other than as described in Section 16.1(a)(ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), if the Lessee fails to comply with, perform or observe (A) any material obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition in this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Operating Standards (with the exception of any requirement pursuant to the Operating Standards to undertake a capital improvement that is not otherwise required by Law and is not approved by the Airlines pursuant to Section 6.3 of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement))) or (B) the requirements or directives of a final award in a matter submitted to dispute resolution in accordance with Article 19, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of 90 days following notice thereof (giving particulars of the failure in reasonable detail) from the Authority to the Lessee; provided, however, that such failure shall not constitute a Lessee Default if the Lessee (x) within 90 days following such initial notice, has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Authority, acting reasonably, that (1) the Lessee is proceeding, and will proceed, with all due diligence to cure or cause to be cured such failure and (2) the Lessee’s actions can be reasonably expected to cure or cause to be cured such failure within a reasonable period of time acceptable to the Authority, acting reasonably, and (y) such failure is in fact cured within such period of time;

(v) if this Agreement or all or any portion of the Lessee Interest is Transferred in contravention of Article 17;

(vi) if the Lessee (A) admits, in writing, that it is unable to pay its debts as such become due, (B) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (C) files a voluntary petition under Title 11 of the United States Code, or if the Lessee files any petition or answer seeking, consenting to or acquiescing in any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the present or any future United States bankruptcy code or any other present or future applicable Law, or shall seek or consent to or acquiesce in or suffer the appointment of any trustee, receiver, custodian, assignee, sequestrator, liquidator or other similar official of the Lessee, or of all or any substantial part of its properties or

116

of the LMM Airport Facility or any material interest therein, or (D) takes any corporate action in furtherance of any action described in this Section 16.1(a)(v);

(vii) if within 90 days after the commencement of any proceeding against the Lessee seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the present or any future United States bankruptcy code or any other present or future applicable Law, such proceeding has not been dismissed, or if, within 90 days after the appointment, without the consent or acquiescence of the Lessee, of any trustee, receiver, custodian, assignee, sequestrator, liquidator or other similar official of the Lessee or of all or any substantial part of its properties or of the LMM Airport Facility or any material interest therein, such appointment has not been vacated or stayed on appeal or otherwise, or if, within 90 days after the expiration of any such stay, such appointment has not been vacated; or

(viii) if a levy under execution or attachment has been made against all or any material portion of the LMM Airport Facility or any material interest therein as a result of any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Lessee Encumbrance) created, incurred, assumed or suffered to exist by the Lessee or any Person claiming through it, and such execution or attachment has not been vacated, removed or stayed by court order, bonding or otherwise within 60 days after the Lessee becomes aware of such levy or attachment, unless such levy or attachment resulted from actions or omissions of the Authority, its Representatives or any Governmental Authority established under the Laws of the Commonwealth.

(b) Remedies of the Authority Upon Lessee Default. Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of a Lessee Default, the Authority may, by notice to the Lessee with a copy to the Signatory Airlines, the FAA Associate Administrator of Airports, the TSA Federal Security Director for the LMM Airport Facility and the Leasehold Mortgagee in accordance with the terms hereof, declare the Lessee to be in default and may, subject to the rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee pursuant to Sections 18.3, 18.4 and 18.5 and the provisions set forth in Articles 18, 19 and 20, do any or all of the following as the Authority, in its discretion, shall determine:

(i) upon the occurrence of a Lessee Default described in Section 16.1(a)(ii), the Authority is entitled to terminate this Agreement (without the need for any other action on behalf of the Authority) upon notice to the Lessee, which may be given immediately upon the expiration of the 10-Business-Day period described in Section 16.1(a)(ii) (for the avoidance of doubt, the entitlement of the Lessee to cure such Lessee Default by the delivery of an approved work plan, as described in Section 16.1(b)(iii), shall not apply thereto);

(ii) upon the occurrence of a Lessee Default described in Section 16.1(a)(iii), the Authority is entitled to terminate this Agreement (without the need for any other action on behalf of the Authority) by giving 90 days’ prior notice to the Lessee (for the avoidance of doubt, the entitlement of the Lessee to cure such Lessee Default by the delivery of an approved work plan, as described in Section 16.1(b)(iii), shall not apply thereto);

(iii) upon the occurrence of a Lessee Default other than one described in Section 16.1(a)(ii) or 16.1(a)(iii), the Authority is entitled to terminate this Agreement (without the need for any other action on behalf of the Authority) by giving 90 days’ prior notice to the Lessee; provided, however, that the Lessee shall be entitled to cure such a curable Lessee Default

117

by providing the Authority with a written work plan within such 90-day period, which work plan shall be Approved by the Authority, outlining the actions by which the Lessee will ensure future compliance with either the obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition in this Agreement or the requirements or directives of the issued final award in accordance with Article 19 that the Lessee failed to perform or observe; provided further that the Authority shall not exercise the remedy provided in this Section 16.1(b)(iii) if the Lessee Default consists solely of a violation of any of the provisions of Article 11 unless such violation is systematic or persistent or the exercise of such remedy is required by Law (but any violation of such Article 11 shall nonetheless subject the Lessee to such fines or penalties otherwise applicable to such violation as they be imposed by the appropriate Governmental Authority or to the imposition of a requirement on the Lessee to demonstrate to the Authority that the Lessee has or will implement all actions considered necessary by the Authority (which may include a remedial plan) to ensure that such violations do not become systematic or persistent); provided further that the remedies for rescission or termination of this Agreement required by Act No. 458 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico enacted on December 29, 2000, as amended, Act No. 237 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico enacted on August 31, 2004, as amended, and Act No. 84 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico enacted on June 18, 2002, as amended, shall be exclusively as provided in Section 16.6.

(iv) if the Lessee Default is by reason of the failure to pay any monies, the Authority is entitled to (without obligation to do so) make payment on behalf of the Lessee of such monies, and any amount so paid by the Authority shall be payable by the Lessee to the Authority within three Business Days after written demand therefor;

(v) subject to the cure rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee set forth in Section 18.3, the Authority is entitled to cure the Lessee Default (but this shall not obligate the Authority to cure or attempt to cure a Lessee Default or, after having commenced to cure or attempted to cure a Lessee Default, to continue to do so), and all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Authority in curing or attempting to cure the Lessee Default, together with an administrative fee equal to 15% of such costs and expenses, shall be payable by the Lessee to the Authority within three Business Days following written demand therefor; provided, however, that (A) the Authority shall not incur any liability to the Lessee for any act or omission of the Authority or any other Person in the course of remedying or attempting to remedy any Lessee Default (other than as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct) and (B) the Authority’s cure of any Lessee Default shall not affect the Authority’s rights against the Lessee by reason of the Lessee Default;

(vi) the Authority is entitled to seek specific performance, injunction or other equitable remedies, it being acknowledged that damages are an inadequate remedy for a Lessee Default;

(vii) the Authority is entitled to seek to recover its Losses arising from such Lessee Default and any amounts due and payable under this Agreement and, in connection therewith, exercise any recourse available to any Person who is owed damages or a debt under applicable Law;

118

(viii) the Authority is entitled to, subject to applicable Law, distrain against any of the Lessee’s goods situated at the LMM Airport Facility and the Lessee waives any statutory protections and exemptions in connection therewith;

(ix) the Lessee may be debarred or suspended for 10 years in accordance with Section 10(a)(xv)(C) of the Act; and

(x) the Authority is entitled to exercise any of its other rights and remedies provided for hereunder or at law or in equity.

Section 16.2 Defaults by the Authority.

(a) Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events during the Term shall constitute a “Authority Default” under this Agreement:

(i) other than as described in Section 16.2(a)(ii) or (v), if the Authority fails to comply with, perform or observe any material obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition in this Agreement (other than an Adverse Action) or the requirements or directives of a final award in a matter submitted to dispute resolution in accordance with Article 19, and such failure or breach continues unremedied for a period of 90 days following notice thereof (giving particulars of the failure in reasonable detail) from the Lessee to the Authority; provided, however, that such failure shall not constitute an Authority Default if the Authority (A) within 90 days following such initial notice, has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Lessee, acting reasonably, that (1) the Authority is proceeding, and will proceed, with all due diligence to cure or cause to be cured such failure and (2) the Authority’s actions can be reasonably expected to cure or cause to be cured such failure within a reasonable period of time acceptable to the Lessee, acting reasonably, and (B) such failure is in fact cured within such period of time;

(ii) if the Authority fails to comply in any material respect with a work plan approved by the Lessee in accordance with Section 16.2(b)(iii);

(iii) if a levy under execution or attachment has been made against all or any material portion of the LMM Airport Facility or the Lessee Interest as a result of any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Authority Encumbrance) created, incurred, assumed or suffered to exist by the Authority or any Person claiming through it, and such execution or attachment has not been vacated, removed or stayed by court order, bonding or otherwise within 60 days after the Authority becomes aware of such levy or attachment, unless such levy or attachment resulted from actions or omissions of the Lessee or its Representatives or if all or any material portion of the LMM Airport Facility shall be subject to a condemnation or similar taking by the Authority or any Governmental Authority; or

(iv) the Authority Transfers any or all of its interest in the LMM Airport Facility or this Agreement other than in compliance with Section 17.4.

(b) Remedies of Lessee Upon Authority Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Authority Default, the Lessee may by notice to the Authority with a copy to the Signatory Airlines, the FAA Associate Administrator of Airports and the TSA Federal Security Director for the LMM Airport Facility in accordance with the terms hereof, declare the

119

Authority to be in default and may, subject to the provisions of Article 19, do any or all of the following as the Lessee, in its discretion, shall determine:

(i) the Lessee is entitled to be paid by the Authority the Leasehold Compensation with respect thereto;

(ii) upon the occurrence of an Authority Default described in Section 16.2(a)(ii), the Lessee is entitled to terminate this Agreement (without the need for any other action on behalf of the Lessee) by giving 90 days’ prior notice to the Authority (the “Initial Termination Notice”) (for the avoidance of doubt, the entitlement of the Authority to cure such Authority Default by the delivery of an approved work plan, as described in Section 16.2(b)(iii), shall not apply thereto); and upon such termination the Authority shall be obligated to pay to the Lessee an amount (which amount shall be paid from general Authority funds and not from LMM Airport Facility revenues) calculated in accordance with Section 16.2(c);

(iii) upon the occurrence of an Authority Default other than one described in Section 16.2(a)(ii), the Lessee is entitled to terminate this Agreement (without the need for any other action on behalf of the Lessee) by giving 90 days’ prior notice to the Authority (like the notice described in Section 16.2(b)(ii), also the “Initial Termination Notice”); provided, however, that the Authority shall be entitled to cure an Authority Default pursuant to Section 16.2(a)(i) by providing the Lessee with a written work plan within such 90-day period, which work plan shall be approved by the Lessee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), outlining the actions by which the Authority will ensure future compliance with either the obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition in this Agreement or the requirement or directive of the final award in accordance with Article 19 that the Authority failed to perform or observe; and upon such termination the Authority shall be obligated to pay to the Lessee an amount (which amount shall be paid from general Authority funds and not from LMM Airport Facility revenues) calculated in accordance with Section 16.2(c);

(iv) the Lessee is entitled to seek to recover its Losses arising from such Authority Default and any amounts due and payable under this Agreement and, in connection therewith, exercise any recourse available to any Person who is owed damages or a debt under applicable Law; and

(v) the Lessee is entitled to exercise any of its other rights and remedies provided for hereunder or at law or in equity.

(c) Calculation of Termination Damages. Upon termination in accordance with Section 16.2(b)(ii) or Section 16.2(b)(iii), the Authority shall be obligated to pay on the Reversion Date to the Lessee an amount (which amount shall be paid from general Authority funds and not from LMM Airport Facility revenues) equal to the aggregate, without duplication, of (i) the LMM Airport Facility Leasehold Value as of the date of termination, plus (ii) the reasonable out-of-pocket and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Lessee as a direct result of such termination, plus (iii) the Leasehold Compensation calculated for the period between the date of the Authority Default and the date of termination, less (iv) any insurance or condemnation proceeds payable to the Lessee (or that should have been payable to the Lessee but for (x) the insurer’s inability to pay, (y) the breach by the Lessee of an obligation to take out or maintain

120

insurance under this Agreement or (z) the invalidity or breach of any insurance policy caused by the Lessee under which such policy proceeds would have been paid) with respect to all or any portion of the LMM Airport Facility as a result of the occurrence of such Authority Default (collectively, the “AD-Termination Damages”) to the Lessee or, if the AD-Termination Damages are determined on a date subsequent to the Reversion Date, then not later than 60 days following the date of determination (which determination shall not be unreasonably delayed) of the AD-Termination Damages (together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 from the Reversion Date to the date on which payment is made); provided that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the Reversion Date to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing to make such a payment; provided further that, subject to (A) the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the Reversion Date (or, if earlier, the 60th day after the giving of the Initial Termination Notice) to the date on which payment is made and (B) the Authority providing written notice of such deferral (a “Deferral Notice”) to the Lessee no later than 30 days after the date on which the Lessee gives the Initial Termination Notice, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines (which determination shall be certified to in the Deferral Notice) that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing to make such a payment (it being agreed by the Authority and the Lessee that if the Authority gives a Deferral Notice, then the Lessee shall have the option (by giving written notice thereof to the Authority) to postpone the termination of this Agreement from the date of termination set forth in the Initial Termination Notice to any date that is on or prior to the expiration of such additional 120-day period and such postponement shall not further defer the date on which any such payment is required to be made by the Authority); provided, however, that any amounts received by the Lessee or any Leasehold Mortgagee from any insurance policies payable as a result of damage or destruction to the LMM Airport Facility that has not been remedied prior to the Reversion Date, shall, to the extent not used to remedy such effects, be deducted from the amount payable by the Authority to the Lessee so long as the Authority has not received any such amounts pursuant to Article 13.

(d) Any dispute arising out of the determination of the AD-Termination Damages shall be submitted to the dispute resolution procedure in Article 19.

(e) No notice given by the Lessee to the Authority in which the Lessee states that it elects to exercise its right of termination of this Agreement shall be valid for any purpose unless, if any Leasehold Mortgage Debt remains outstanding and if and to the extent required by the terms of any Leasehold Mortgage, the Lessee has first obtained and delivered to the Authority the written consent of the Leasehold Mortgagee to such notice.

Section 16.3 Letters of Credit; Capital Costs Reserve.

(a) The Lessee shall deliver no later than the first day of the Term Year that is five years prior to the final Term Year of the Term, a Letter of Credit in the amount that the Independent Engineer reasonably determines is appropriate to cover all costs of capital improvements for the remainder of the Term as set forth in the capital improvement requirements included in the Operating Standards.

121

(b) Subject to Section 16.3(c), such Letter of Credit shall be replaced on every anniversary of such Term Year until the date that is three years after the later of (i) the expiration of the Term and (ii) such time as there is no unresolved dispute with respect to the Lessee’s compliance with or performance or observation of any obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition in this Agreement with a Replacement Letter of Credit in the amount of the undrawn balance of such Letter of Credit plus the amount of interest that would have been earned on such balance if invested for the next 12-month period at the Bank Rate. The required amount of any Letter of Credit may be adjusted from time to time (at intervals that may be shorter than one Term Year) by the amount that the Independent Engineer reasonably determines is appropriate (taking into account progress by the Lessee made toward the completion of capital improvements and changes in costs of remaining capital improvements) such that the amount of the Letter of Credit after such adjustment remains sufficient to cover all costs of capital improvements for the remainder of the Term as required by the Operating Standards. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Lessee Default (or if there is a dispute as to the occurrence of a Lessee Default, upon a final decision pursuant to Article 19 that a Lessee Default has occurred), the Authority shall have the right (in addition to all other rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, but with the understanding that any other monetary damages that the Authority may recover will be reduced by the amount so drawn, and without the Authority’s exercise of such right being deemed a waiver or a cure of the Lessee’s failure to perform and whether or not this Agreement is thereby terminated), with three Business Days’ prior notice to the Lessee, to draw against such Letter of Credit or any replacement thereof, upon presentation of a sight draft and a certificate confirming that the Authority has the right to draw under such Letter of Credit in the amount of such sight draft, up to the amount due to the Authority with respect to such Lessee Default.

(c) The Lessee shall replace each Letter of Credit with a replacement Letter of Credit (the “Replacement Letter of Credit”) at least 60 days prior to the expiry date of a Letter of Credit which is expiring. If the Lessee does not deliver to the Authority a Replacement Letter of Credit within such time period, the Authority shall have the right (in addition to all other rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and without the Authority’s exercise of such right being deemed a waiver or a cure of the Lessee’s failure to perform and whether or not this Agreement is thereby terminated) to draw immediately the full amount of the Letter of Credit upon presentation of a sight draft and a certificate confirming that the Authority has the right to draw under such Letter of Credit in the amount of such sight draft; provided that any drawings under such Letter of Credit must be used by the Authority solely for the purposes of covering the cost of capital improvements for the remainder of the Term as required by the Operating Standards. After the Lessee delivers to the Authority a Replacement Letter of Credit complying with the provisions of this Agreement, the Authority shall deliver in accordance with the Lessee’s reasonable instructions the Letter of Credit being replaced (provided that at such time no sight draft under such Letter of Credit is outstanding and unpaid) and, if applicable, shall return to the Lessee any proceeds of any drawings under such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. Any Replacement Letter of Credit shall be upon the same terms and conditions as the Letter of Credit replaced and satisfy the requirements for a Letter of Credit, but in any event (i) the amount of each Replacement Letter of Credit, except as provided in Section 16.3(b), shall equal or exceed the amount of the Letter of Credit being replaced at the time of replacement and (ii) the date of the Replacement Letter of Credit shall be its date of issuance. The expiry date of the Replacement Letter of Credit, as referred to in the opening paragraph of such Replacement Letter of Credit, shall be not earlier than one year

122

later than the expiry date of the Letter of Credit being replaced or such other shorter period acceptable to the Authority as required hereunder.

(d) If this Agreement is terminated by the Authority prior to the expiration of the Term as a result of a Lessee Default in accordance with the terms hereof, the Authority shall have the right, but without duplication to Section 16.3(b) (in addition to all other rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, but with the understanding that any other monetary damages recoverable by the Authority may be reduced by the amount so drawn, and without the Authority’s exercise of such right being deemed a waiver or a cure of the Lessee’s failure to perform), with three Business Days’ prior notice to the Lessee, to draw against any Letter of Credit, upon presentation of a sight draft and a certificate confirming that the Authority has the right to draw under such Letter of Credit in the amount of such sight draft, up to the amount due to the Authority pursuant to the terms of this Agreement with respect to such Lessee Default.

(e) The Authority will accept the Letters of Credit to be delivered pursuant to this Section 16.3 (and pursuant to Section 2.3) as security for the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement, in place of a cash deposit in the same amount. The Lessee’s sole remedy in connection with the improper presentment or payment of sight drafts drawn under the Letter of Credit shall be the right to obtain from the Authority a refund of the amount of any sight draft the proceeds of which were drawn inappropriately or misapplied and the reasonable costs incurred by the Lessee as a result of such draw or misapplication (including, for the avoidance of doubt, interest thereupon); provided, however, that at the time of such refund, the Lessee increases the amount of the Letter of Credit to the amount (if any) then required under the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Lessee acknowledges that the presentment of sight drafts drawn under the Letter of Credit could not under any circumstances cause the Lessee injury that could not be remedied by an award of money damages, and that the recovery of money damages would be an adequate remedy therefor. The Lessee shall not request or instruct the issuer of the Letter of Credit to refrain from paying any sight draft drawn under a Letter of Credit.

(f) If the Authority desires to assign its rights and obligations in accordance with Section 17.4 of this Agreement, the Lessee shall cooperate so that concurrently with the effectiveness of such assignment, either Replacement Letters of Credit as described in Section 16.3(c) for, or appropriate amendments to, the Letters of Credit then held by the Authority, in either case identifying as beneficiary the appropriate party after the assignment becomes effective, shall be delivered to the Authority, at no cost to the Lessee.

(g) The Lessee shall obtain and furnish all Letters of Credit and Replacement Letters of Credit at its sole cost and expense (except as noted above) and shall pay all charges imposed in connection with the Authority’s presentation of appropriate sight drafts and drawing against the Letters of Credit or Replacement Letters of Credit.

(h) In lieu of any Letter of Credit to be provided by the Lessee pursuant to the terms of this Section 16.3, whether in whole or in part, the Lessee shall, at the Lessee’s discretion, have the option:

(i) to provide a surety bond or other similar form of security (in each case, consistent (including as to form and credit quality of issuer) with the requirements set forth

123

herein for Letters of Credit) or to deposit with a Depositary for the benefit of the Authority, as collateral security, cash or Eligible Investments in an amount equal to the amount of such Letter of Credit, or relevant part thereof, at the time of such deposit, or

(ii) to create and maintain a reserve account (the “Capital Costs Reserve”) in such amount as may be required by, and under the control of, the Leasehold Mortgagee for the purpose of providing for the payment, whether in whole or in part, of the costs of capital improvements required by the Operating Standards for the remainder of the Term; provided that the terms under which such Capital Costs Reserve is established and maintained under the applicable financing agreements will ensure its availability to the Authority in the case of a Lessee Default, subject only to the rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee. In the event the Lessee opts to establish a deposit pursuant to Section 16.3(h)(i), the Depositary shall invest and reinvest such amounts in Eligible Investments at the direction of the Lessee and any earnings thereon shall be paid to the Lessee. If, at any time during the Term, the Authority would have the right to draw any amount on a Letter of Credit for which the Lessee has substituted cash or Eligible Investments or the Capital Costs Reserve pursuant to this Section 16.3(h), the Lessee shall cause the Depositary to pay such amount to the Authority from such cash deposit or Eligible Investments or the Lessee shall cause the Leasehold Mortgagee to pay such amount to the Authority from the Capital Costs Reserve, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Section 16.3, and all rights and remedies of the Authority and the Lessee with respect to such cash deposits or, Eligible Investments, if any, and Capital Costs Reserve (subject to the rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee in the Capital Costs Reserve) shall be the same as those provided in this Section 16.3 with respect to any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the certification that would have been provided by the Authority with the sight draft had cash or Eligible Investments not been so substituted shall be made to the Depositary and delivered to the Depositary together with the Authority’s written demand for payment.

(i) If Letters of Credit shall not in the future be available at commercially reasonable terms and rates or shall not be a commercially reasonable form of security in similar transactions, the Lessee shall furnish the Authority with comparable security instruments or Eligible Investments that then are commonly used in similar transactions and which are Approved by the Authority; and if no such security instruments shall be available, the Lessee shall deposit with the Authority cash as security.

(j) In the event that the issuer of a Letter of Credit, a Replacement Letter of Credit, a surety bond or any other form of security delivered pursuant to Section 16.3(h) no longer meets the credit rating requirements for such issuer set forth in this Agreement, then the Lessee shall have the obligation to replace such Letter of Credit, Replacement Letter of Credit, surety bond or other security with an instrument that meets the requirements set forth in this Agreement. If the Lessee shall not have replaced such Letter of Credit, Replacement Letter of Credit, surety bond or other security with an instrument that meets the requirements set forth in this Agreement within 30 days, the Authority shall have the right (in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement, without the Authority’s exercise of such right to be deemed a waiver or cure of the Lessee’s failure to perform and whether or not this Agreement is thereby terminated), with two Business Days’ prior notice to the Lessee, to draw against such Letter of Credit, Replacement Letter of Credit, surety bond or other security in accordance with its terms in

124

the full amount available thereunder, but with the understanding that any other monetary damages that the Authority may recover will be reduced by the amount so drawn.

(k) Any Letter of Credit, Replacement Letter of Credit, surety bond or other form of security delivered pursuant to Section 16.3(h) shall provide that the Authority may draw on such Letter of Credit, Replacement Letter of Credit, surety bond or other security in accordance with its terms in the circumstances set forth in Section 16.4(j).

(j) the Authority and the Lessee shall make appropriate adjustments, including adjustments relating to any Operating Agreements assigned to the Authority, fees and other similar charges collected on and after the Reversion Date that are incurred prior to the Reversion Date,

(k) in the event that, at the time of expiration of the Term (but not the earlier termination in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), the Lessee had constructed, or commenced construction on, any capital improvement projects required to be completed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the Use Agreement (including in respect of the Operating Standards), other than the General Accelerated Upgrades, for which reimbursement (in the form of PFCs, Government Grants-In-Aid, increased Airline charges to the extent permitted by the Use Agreement, or otherwise) was anticipated by the Lessee, but for which the Lessee had not received, as of the date of such expiration of the Term, such anticipated reimbursement for the amounts incurred by the Lessee on such capital improvement projects, the Authority shall provide reimbursement to the Lessee on the Reversion Date in an amount equal to the amount of the anticipated reimbursements not yet received by the Lessee as of the Reversion Date; provided that, with respect to any project that is commenced after the last day of the Term Year that is ten years prior to the final Term Year of the Term, this provision shall be applicable only to the extent that (i) such project is a Government-Mandated Capital Project (as such term is defined in the Use Agreement), (ii) such project has been approved by the Airlines pursuant to Section 6.3 of the Use Agreement (or the equivalent provision in any successor use agreement) or (iii) the Authority has granted prior Approval for such project; and provided further that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the Reversion Date to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing to make such a payment; and provided further, however, that, the Lessee shall use its Reasonable Efforts to cooperate with the Authority with respect to transferring (to the extent practicable) any Lessee financing in respect of such capital improvement projects secured by or payable from such PFC, Government Grants-In-Aid, increased Airline charges or other revenues or otherwise effectuating substitute financing for such Lessee financing secured by or payable from such PFC, increased Airline charges or other revenues;

(l) if this Agreement is terminated as a result of an Adverse Action, the payment by the Authority to the Lessee of the amounts required under Article 14 or Article 19 shall constitute full and final settlement of any and all Claims the Lessee may have against the Authority for and in respect of the termination of this Agreement and upon such payment, the Lessee shall execute and deliver all such releases and discharges as the Authority may reasonably require to give effect to the foregoing;

(m) the Authority hereby covenants and agrees that in the event of any termination of this Agreement and reversion of the LMM Airport Facility to the Authority, or in the event the Lessee should abandon and cease to perform its obligations at any time prior to such termination, the Authority will take all reasonable actions, subject to all necessary approvals by the FAA and the TSA, to assume responsibility for the management of the LMM Airport Facility

127

in order to permit its continued operation without interruption in accordance with the Operating Standards and all applicable Law; and

(n) the Lessee shall make any final payment of the Annual Authority Payment or Annual Authority Revenue Share required in accordance with Section 2.1.

This Section 16.4 shall survive the expiration or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

Section 16.5 Termination Other Than Pursuant to Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated by the Authority other than pursuant to Article 16 or is canceled, rescinded or voided by the Authority during the Term for any reason over the objection and without action by the Lessee, any Leasehold Mortgagee or their respective Affiliates (other than by reason of the application of Section 16.6), the Authority shall pay to the Lessee the AD-Termination Damages as of the date of termination in accordance with Section 16.2. The Authority hereby acknowledges and agrees that it may only terminate this Agreement in accordance with the express terms hereof and shall not, in any event, have the right to terminate this Agreement for convenience.

Section 16.6 Termination Required by Act No. 458 and Public Integrity Crimes.

(a) This Agreement shall automatically be rescinded by operation of Act No. 458 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico, enacted on December 29, 2000, 3 P.R. Xxxx Xxx. § 928 et seq., as amended, if the Lessee or any subsidiary or alter ego thereof is convicted or enters a plea of guilty in respect of any Act No. 458 Crime, or if any other Covered Party, while in the employ of the Lessee, is convicted or enters a plea of guilty in respect of any Act No. 458 Crime.

(b) This Agreement shall terminate as required by Act No. 237 of the Legislative Assembly of Puerto Rico, enacted on August 31, 2004, as amended, or the Code of Ethics, if the Lessee is convicted of a Public Integrity Crime that is not an Act No. 458 Crime.

(c) If this Agreement is rescinded or terminated during the Term pursuant to Section 16.6(a) or (b) and, in the case of a rescission caused by the conviction or the entering of a plea of guilty for an Act No. 458 Crime, such crime was not committed in connection with the procurement of this Agreement, then the Authority shall be obligated to pay to the Lessee an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the LMM Airport Facility Leasehold Value and (ii) the Unamortized Leasehold Fee, in each case calculated as of the End Date (the “PIC-Termination Damages”); provided that, (x) subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the End Date to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing or required approvals to make such payment and (y) if the amount of the PIC-Termination Damages is less than or equal to the sum of the Leasehold Mortgage Debt and any related Breakage Costs as of the End Date, then the Authority shall enter into a New Agreement with the Leasehold Mortgagee, or its designee or nominee, subject to and in accordance with Section 18.5 (and subject to clause (e) of this Section 16.6), and the Authority shall be released from any obligation to pay PIC-Termination Damages or any other compensation to the Lessee in connection with such rescission or termination.

128

(d) If this Agreement is rescinded during the Term pursuant to Section 16.6(a) as a result of an Act No. 458 Crime committed in connection with the procurement of this Agreement, then the Authority shall enter into a New Agreement with the Leasehold Mortgagee, or its designee or nominee, subject to and in accordance with Section 18.5 (and subject to Section 16.6(e)), and the Lessee shall not be entitled to receive any PIC-Termination Damages or other compensation of any form or amount from the Authority in connection with such rescission.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event the Authority is required to enter into any New Agreement pursuant to Section 16.6(c) or (d), the Authority may elect, in its sole option by notice to the Lessee at any time prior to the execution and delivery of such New Agreement, to pay to the Lessee a sum equal to the Leasehold Mortgage Debt and any related Breakage Costs, and upon such notice the Authority shall be (i) released from the obligation to enter into such New Agreement and (ii) obligated to pay such sum to the Lessee in cash; provided that, subject to the right of the Lessee to receive interest at the rate set forth in Section 20.9 on the payment owed by the Authority from the End Date to the date on which payment is made, the Authority may defer any such payment for an additional 120 days if the Authority reasonably determines that such additional period is necessary to obtain financing or required approvals to make such payment.

(f) If this Agreement is rescinded or terminated during the Term pursuant to this Section 16.6, then the Authority shall recover from the Lessee all of the Authority’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and Financing Costs, if any, arising in connection with such rescission or termination, together with any reasonable Re-Tender Costs relating to any Re-Tender of the LMM Airport Facility following such rescission or termination.

(g) Without limiting the obligation of the Lessee to make any payment in accordance with Section 16.6(f) or any other payment then expressly due under any other provision of this Agreement, the Authority and the Lessee acknowledge and agree that if this Agreement is rescinded or terminated pursuant to this Section 16.6, the Lessee shall not be liable as a result of such rescission or termination to return any revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility or other amounts received by it in accordance with this Agreement during the Term. The provisions of this Section 16.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter to the same extent as if this Section 16.6 were a separate and independent contract made by the Authority with each of the Leasehold Mortgagee and the Lessee.

ARTICLE 17
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS

Section 17.1 Transfers by the Lessee.

(a) The Lessee shall not Transfer, or otherwise permit the Transfer of, any or all of the Lessee Interest to or in favor of any Person (a “Transferee”), unless (i) the FAA and TSA have approved such proposed Transfer and Transferee, (ii) such proposed Transferee obtains all necessary approvals and exemptions from the FAA as required pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 47134 (including an FAA exemption to earn compensation from the LMM Airport Facility Operations), (iii) the Authority has Approved (based upon a determination in accordance with Section 17.1(b) and in compliance with Section 8.2 of the Use Agreement (or any comparable provision of a

129

successor use agreement)) such proposed Transferee (unless it is the Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee or nominee permitted under Article 18) and (iv) the proposed Transferee (unless it is the Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee or nominee permitted under Article 18) enters into an agreement with the Authority in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Authority wherein the Transferee acquires the rights and assumes the obligations of the Lessee and agrees to perform and observe all of the obligations and covenants of the Lessee under this Agreement and the Use Agreement, including the obligations to (y) comply in all material respects with all applicable Laws with respect to the LMM Airport Facility and (z) maintain in full force and effect all qualifications necessary to carry on its business pertaining to the LMM Airport Facility (including the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate and a TSA-approved Airport Security Program). Any Transfer made in violation of the foregoing provision shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect; provided that, while any Leasehold Mortgage is outstanding, the Authority shall not agree to any Transfer of any or all of the Lessee Interest to or in favor of any Person without the previous written confirmation from the Leasehold Mortgagee that such Transfer is permitted under all outstanding Leasehold Mortgages.

(b) The Approval of the Authority of a proposed Transferee may be withheld only if the Authority reasonably determines that (i) the proposed Transfer is prohibited by or would result in a violation of applicable Law or (ii) such proposed Transferee is not capable of performing the obligations and covenants of the Lessee under this Agreement, which determination shall be based upon and take into account one or more of the following factors: (A) the financial strength and integrity of the proposed Transferee, its direct or indirect beneficial owners, any proposed managers or operating partners and each of their respective Affiliates; (B) the experience of the proposed Transferee or any proposed managers or operating partners to be engaged by the proposed Transferee in operating airports and performing other relevant projects; and (C) the background and reputation of the proposed Transferee, its direct or indirect beneficial owners, any proposed managers or operating partners, each of their respective officers, directors and employees and each of their respective Affiliates (including the absence of criminal, civil or regulatory claims or actions against any such Person and the quality of any such Person’s past or present performance on other projects).

(c) No Transfer of all or any of the Lessee Interest (except a Transfer to a Leasehold Mortgagee or its nominee upon the Leasehold Mortgagee’s exercise of remedies under its Leasehold Mortgage provided in Article 18 and any subsequent Transfer to the Transferee of the Leasehold Mortgagee or its nominee that has been Approved under Section 17.1(b)) shall be made or have any force or effect if, at the time of such Transfer there has occurred and is continuing a Lessee Default that has not been remedied or an event that with the lapse of time, the giving of notice or otherwise would constitute a Lessee Default.

Section 17.2 Transfers of Equity Holder Interests or Other Change in Control Transactions. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to prohibit or limit, whether accomplished through a single transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions and whether accomplished directly or indirectly, Transfers of direct or indirect ownership interests in the Lessee by any Equity Participant or its beneficial owner(s) to any Person; provided that if any such Transfer results in a Change in Control of the Lessee (other than a Change in Control occasioned by the exercise by any Leasehold Mortgagee of its remedies under any pledge of shares, limited liability company interests or partnership interests), the Approval of the Authority shall be

130

required for any such Transfer in accordance with Section 17.1, including that the Transfer would not violate any applicable FAA, TSA or other Governmental Authority requirement. Any other transaction that results in a Change in Control of the Lessee (other than a Change in Control occasioned by the exercise by any Leasehold Mortgagee of its remedies under any pledge of shares, limited liability company interests or partnership interests) shall also require the Approval of the Authority. The Approval of the Authority under this Section 17.2 shall be in compliance with Section 8.2 of the Use Agreement (or any comparable provision of a successor use agreement) and otherwise may be withheld only if the Authority reasonably determines or is informed in writing by the FAA, TSA or other Governmental Authority that the proposed transaction (i) is prohibited by or would result in a violation of applicable Law (such as 14 C.F.R. Part 139 or 1542) or (ii) is likely to result in a material adverse change in the LMM Airport Facility Operations.

Section 17.3 Other Corporate Actions.

(a) Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to prohibit or limit the Lessee from changing its organizational form or status (including a change from a limited liability company to a corporation or limited partnership); provided that such change in organizational form or status does not result in a Change in Control of the Lessee.

(b) Neither (i) a change of ownership that is attributable to a lease, sublease, concession, management agreement, operating agreement or other similar arrangement that is subject and subordinate in all respects to the rights of the Authority under this Agreement, nor (ii) the creation of a trust or any other transaction or arrangement that is solely a transfer of all or part of the Lessee’s economic interest under this Agreement to another entity shall be deemed to be a Transfer of the Lessee Interest for purposes of Section 17.1(a).

Section 17.4 Assignment by the Authority. During the Term, the Authority shall have the right to Transfer any or all of the Authority’s interest in the LMM Airport Facility and this Agreement; provided that (a) it shall be jointly and severally obligated with the Transferee (unless the Transferee is the Authority’s successor) for the performance and observance of the obligations and covenants of the Authority under this Agreement and any agreement entered into by the Authority under this Agreement (including agreeing directly with any Leasehold Mortgagee to be bound by the agreement entered into in accordance with Section 18.5), (b) any such Transfer by the Authority shall not materially limit or reduce any of the Lessee’s other rights, benefits, remedies or privileges under this Agreement or negatively affect the fair market value of the Lessee Interest, (c) any such Transfer is in compliance with applicable Law, and the Authority has obtained all necessary consents, including from the FAA, the TSA and any other Governmental Authorities and (d) the GDB Payment Guaranty remains in full force and effect after giving effect to such Transfer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lessee acknowledges and agrees that any action that may be taken under this Agreement by the Authority may be taken by the Authority or any other department, instrumentality or agency of the Commonwealth and that any action taken by the Authority or any other department, instrumentality or agency of the Commonwealth shall be deemed to have been taken by the Authority for purposes of this Agreement; provided that the Authority or any such other department, instrumentality or agency shall comply with the obligations of the Authority as set forth in this Agreement and under applicable Law.

(c) no Person other than an Institutional Lender shall be entitled to the benefits and protections accorded to a Leasehold Mortgagee in this Agreement; provided, however, that lessors and lenders to the Lessee, including any financial insurers, shall be entitled to the benefits and protections accorded to a Leasehold Mortgagee in this Agreement so long as any Leasehold Mortgage securing the relevant debt or financial insurance provided by such Persons is held by an Institutional Lender acting as collateral agent or trustee with the customary powers given collateral agents or trustees in similar commercial financing transactions;

(d) no Leasehold Mortgage or other instrument purporting to mortgage, pledge, encumber or create a lien, charge or security interest on or against any or all of the Lessee Interest shall extend to or affect the fee simple interest in the LMM Airport Facility, the Authority’s interest hereunder or its reversionary interest and estate in and to the LMM Airport Facility or any part thereof (other than a Permitted Lessee Encumbrance);

(e) the Authority shall have no liability whatsoever for payment of the principal sum secured by any Leasehold Mortgage, or any interest accrued thereon or any other sum secured thereby or accruing thereunder, and, except for violation by the Authority of the express obligations to the Leasehold Mortgagee set forth in this Article 18 and for any remedies of the Leasehold Mortgagee provided by Law, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be entitled to seek any damages or other amounts against the Authority for any or all of the same;

(f) the Authority shall have no obligation to any Leasehold Mortgagee in the enforcement of the Authority’s rights and remedies herein and by Law provided, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and unless such Leasehold Mortgagee has provided the Authority with notice of its Leasehold Mortgage in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice Requirements;

132

(g) each Leasehold Mortgage shall provide that if an event of default under the Leasehold Mortgage has occurred and is continuing and the Leasehold Mortgagee gives notice of such event of default to the Lessee, then the Leasehold Mortgagee shall give notice of such default to the Authority (and the Authority shall be obligated to provide a copy of such notice to the Signatory Airlines);

(i) while any Leasehold Mortgage is outstanding, the Authority shall not agree to any amendment to or modification of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the rights or interests of the Leasehold Mortgagee or agree to a voluntary surrender or termination of this Agreement by the Lessee without the consent of the Leasehold Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned;

(j) notwithstanding any enforcement of the security of any Leasehold Mortgage, the Lessee shall remain liable to the Authority for the payment of all sums owing to the Authority under this Agreement and the performance and observance of all of the Lessee’s covenants and obligations under this Agreement, unless otherwise satisfied;

(k) a Leasehold Mortgagee shall not, by virtue of its Leasehold Mortgage, acquire any greater rights or interest in the LMM Airport Facility than the Lessee has at any applicable time under this Agreement, other than such rights or interest as may be granted or acquired in accordance with Sections 18.2, 18.3, 18.4 or 18.5; and

Nothing herein shall obligate the Authority to consent to service of process, become subject to any legal process in any jurisdiction other than in the Commonwealth, or enter into any agreement not governed by the Laws of the Commonwealth.

Section 18.2 Notices and Payments to Leasehold Mortgagees. Whenever a Leasehold Mortgage exists as to which the Authority and the Signatory Airlines have been provided notice by the holder thereof in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice Requirements, the Authority and the Signatory Airlines shall, simultaneously with providing the Lessee any required notice under this Agreement, provide a copy of such notice to such Leasehold Mortgagee, and no such notice to the Lessee shall be effective against the Leasehold Mortgagee until a copy thereof is duly provided to such Leasehold Mortgagee at its address specified in its notice given to the Authority and the Signatory Airlines in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice Requirements (or any subsequent change of address notice given to the Authority and the Signatory Airlines pursuant to the requirements of Section 20.1). With respect

133

to a Leasehold Mortgage regarding which the Authority and the Signatory Airlines have been provided notice in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice Requirements, unless the Leasehold Mortgagee recognized by the Authority pursuant to Section 18.7 has otherwise advised the Authority in writing, and solely to the extent so required pursuant to the terms of the financing secured by such Leasehold Mortgage, all payments to the Lessee to be made by the Authority under this Agreement shall be made to the Leasehold Mortgagee or to the institution acting as the collateral agent or depository under the financing provided by such Leasehold Mortgagee.

Section 18.3 Leasehold Mortgagee’s Right to Cure. The Leasehold Mortgagee shall have a period of 180 days with respect to any Lessee Default beyond any cure period expressly provided to the Lessee herein, in which to cure or cause to be cured any such Lessee Default; provided, however, that such 180-day period shall be extended if the Lessee Default is nonmonetary, is not a Lessee Default described in Section 16.1(a)(v) or Section 16.1(a)(vi) and may be cured but cannot reasonably be cured within such period of 180 days, and the Leasehold Mortgagee begins to cure such default within such 180-day period (or if possession is necessary in order to effect such cure, the Leasehold Mortgagee, within such 180-day period, files the appropriate legal action to commence foreclosure on the liens of the Leasehold Mortgage) and thereafter proceeds with all due diligence to cure such Lessee Default (including by proceeding with all due diligence to effect such foreclosure and during such foreclosure action (to the extent practicable) and thereafter to effect such a cure) within a reasonable period of time acceptable to the Authority, acting reasonably; provided, further, that if any Leasehold Mortgagee is prohibited from curing any Lessee Default by any process, stay or injunction issued by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving the Lessee, then the time periods specified in this Section 18.3 for curing such Lessee Default shall be extended for the period of such prohibition. If a Leasehold Mortgagee is acting to cure a Lessee Default in accordance with this Section 18.3 then the Authority shall not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement by reason of such Lessee Default; provided, however, that the Authority may exercise any of its other rights and remedies provided for hereunder at law or in equity so long as the exercise of such rights does not interfere with the Leasehold Mortgagee’s rights hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Authority shall permit the Leasehold Mortgagee and its Representatives the same access to the LMM Airport Facility as is permitted to the Lessee hereunder and permit the Leasehold Mortgagee or its representatives to take all actions and exercise all rights of the Lessee under this Agreement (all at the Lessee’s sole cost and expense); provided that any actions taken by a Leasehold Mortgagee or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 18.3 shall be undertaken in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement that would be applicable to the Lessee were it taking such actions. The Authority shall accept any such performance by a Leasehold Mortgagee or its nominee as though the same had been done or performed by the Lessee. Any payment to be made or action to be taken by a Leasehold Mortgagee hereunder as a prerequisite to keeping this Agreement in effect shall be deemed properly to have been made or taken by the Leasehold Mortgagee if such payment is made or action is taken by a nominee, agent or assignee of the rights of such Leasehold Mortgagee. Any exercise of the Leasehold Mortgagee’s rights to cure hereunder shall not result in the assumption by such Leasehold Mortgagee of the Lessee’s obligations hereunder.

134

Section 18.4 Rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement (including all necessary approvals and exemptions in accordance with Section 17.1(a)(i) and (ii)), a Leasehold Mortgagee may (i) enforce any Leasehold Mortgage in any lawful way, (ii) acquire the Lessee Interest in any lawful way or (iii) take possession of in any lawful way and manage the LMM Airport Facility. Upon foreclosure of the Leasehold Mortgage (or without foreclosure upon exercise of any contractual or statutory power of sale under such Leasehold Mortgage or an assignment in lieu) and subject to the provisions of Article 17 (applied to the Leasehold Mortgagee as if it were the Lessee), a Leasehold Mortgagee may Transfer the Lessee Interest; provided, however, that no Transfer by a Leasehold Mortgagee shall be effective unless the Transfer is made in accordance with Article 17. Any Person to whom the Leasehold Mortgagee Transfers the Lessee Interest (including such Leasehold Mortgagee) shall take the Lessee Interest subject to any of the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement (including the obligations to (y) comply in all material respects with all applicable Laws with respect to the LMM Airport Facility and/or (z) maintain in full force and effect all qualifications necessary to carry on its business pertaining to the LMM Airport Facility (including the Part 139 Airport Operating Certificate and the TSA-approved Airport Security Program)). The Leasehold Mortgagee is not permitted in connection with its enforcement of its lien to do anything that would materially and adversely affect the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Operations or the rights of the Signatory Airlines under the Use Agreement, in each case that is inconsistent or otherwise not permitted by this Agreement. Moreover, in the event that the Leasehold Mortgagee forecloses on the Leasehold Mortgage or otherwise exercises any rights in connection with any lien encumbering the LMM Airport Facility, the LMM Airport Facility Operations or the rights of the Signatory Airlines under the Use Agreement, the Leasehold Mortgagee acknowledges and agrees that the Use Agreement with respect to each Signatory Airline will remain in full force and effect and will be fully enforceable against the Leasehold Mortgagee in accordance with its respective terms. The Authority agrees that if requested by a Leasehold Mortgagee that is exercising its rights under this Section 18.4, the Authority will, subject to the receipt of any necessary approvals by the FAA and TSA, assume the obligation to manage and operate the LMM Airport Facility by agreement with such Leasehold Mortgagee or with any Person to whom such Leasehold Mortgage may Transfer the Lessee Interest hereunder; provided that such agreement provides for the payment to the Authority of its reasonable costs of performing such obligation, including a reasonable administrative charge and provided further that, except with the consent of the Authority, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall use its best efforts to retain a qualified third-party to assume such obligation, and obtain any necessary approvals by the FAA and TSA for such assumption, as soon as reasonably practicable.

(b) Except as provided in Section 18.3, unless and until a Leasehold Mortgagee (i) forecloses or has otherwise taken ownership of the Lessee Interest or (ii) has taken possession or control of the Lessee Interest, whether directly or by an agent as a mortgagee in possession or a receiver or receiver and manager has taken possession or control of the Lessee Interest by reference to the Leasehold Mortgage, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be liable for any of the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement or be entitled to any of the Lessee’s rights and benefits contained in this Agreement, except by way of security. During any period in which the Leasehold Mortgagee itself or by an agent or a receiver or a receiver and manager is the owner, or is in control or possession, of the Lessee Interest, it shall be bound by all liabilities and obligations of the Lessee accruing under this Agreement during such period (including the obligations set forth in Section

135

3.3). Once the Leasehold Mortgagee goes out of possession or control of the Lessee Interest or Transfers the Lessee Interest to another Person in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall cease to be liable for any of the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement accruing thereafter, and to the extent assumed by any Transferee or any other Person acceptable to the Authority in accordance with this Agreement and the Use Agreement, for any of the Lessee’s obligations under this Agreement accrued during the period in which the Leasehold Mortgagee itself or by an agent or a receiver and manager was the owner, or was in control or possession, of the Lessee Interest, and shall cease to be entitled to any of the Lessee’s rights and benefits contained in this Agreement, except, if the Leasehold Mortgage remains outstanding, by way of security.

Section 18.5 Authority’s Termination of this Agreement; New Agreement.

(a) Without prejudice to the rights of a Leasehold Mortgagee under Section 18.3 or the Signatory Airlines under the Use Agreement, if this Agreement is (i) terminated prior to the expiration of the Term due to a Lessee Default (in which case the Authority shall notify the Leasehold Mortgagee of such termination and deliver to the Leasehold Mortgagee, together with such notice, a Statement of Estimated Liabilities), (ii) rejected or disaffirmed pursuant to any bankruptcy Law or proceeding or other similar Law or proceedings affecting creditors’ rights generally with respect to a bankruptcy proceeding relating to the Lessee or otherwise or (iii) is rescinded or terminated pursuant to Section 16.6 as a result of a Public Integrity Crime or an Act No. 458 Crime in circumstances where the provisions of Section 16.6(c) or Section 16.6(d) are applicable, then the Authority agrees, if there are outstanding obligations to a Leasehold Mortgagee (subject to the receipt of all necessary approvals and exemptions in accordance with Section 17.1(a)(i) and (ii) and, in the case of circumstances described in Section 18.5(a)(iii), subject to Section 16.6(e)), upon the written request of the Leasehold Mortgagee, to enter into a new lease agreement of the LMM Airport Facility (the “New Agreement”) with the Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) and any ancillary documents or agreements as may be necessary or desirable to give full effect to the New Agreement; provided that such designee or nominee either is controlled by the Leasehold Mortgagee or is Approved by the Authority as Transferee under Section 17.1) for the remainder of the Term upon all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and limitations of this Agreement, including Section 3.3, effective as of the date of such termination.

(b) The Authority’s obligation to enter into a New Agreement pursuant to Section 18.5(a) is subject to the satisfaction of all of the following requirements and conditions: (i) such Leasehold Mortgagee commits in writing to the Authority, in a notice delivered to the Authority, within 60 days after the Authority delivers the termination notice and Statement of Estimated Liabilities to the Leasehold Mortgagee (or, if later, upon the termination of any cure period granted to the Leasehold Mortgagee pursuant to Section 18.3) or within 10 Business Days after the effective date of such rejection or disaffirmance (referred to in Section 18.5(a)(ii)) or such rescission or termination (referred to in Section 18.5(a)(iii)), as the case may be, that the Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) will enter into the New Agreement, which notice is accompanied by a copy of such New Agreement, duly executed and acknowledged by the Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee); (ii) reasonably in advance of the execution of any New Agreement pursuant to Section 18.5(a)(i), the Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) pays or causes to be paid to the Authority, at the time of the execution and delivery of

136

such New Agreement, (A) all amounts set forth in the Statement of Estimated Liabilities which, at the time of the execution and delivery thereof, would have been past-due or due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement but for such termination and (B) all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees), Taxes, fees, charges and disbursements set forth in the Statement of Estimated Liabilities paid or incurred by the Authority in connection with such defaults and termination, the recovery of possession from the Lessee, and the preparation, execution and delivery of the New Agreement and related agreements; and (iii) in the case of any New Agreement pursuant to Section 18.5(a)(i), such Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee), at the time of such written request, cures all Lessee Defaults under this Agreement (curable by the payment of money) of which the Leasehold Mortgagee has been notified by the Authority in writing that are existing immediately prior to the termination of this Agreement set forth in the Statement of Estimated Liabilities, or, if such defaults cannot be cured by the payment of money, such Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) commits to the Authority in the New Agreement to proceed both promptly and diligently, upon the execution of the New Agreement, to cure all such other Lessee Defaults (to the extent curable) set forth in the Statement of Estimated Liabilities and, if possession is necessary in order to cure such other Lessee Defaults, to proceed both promptly and diligently to obtain the possession required to cure any such other defaults to the extent curable (and such cure shall be a covenant of the Leasehold Mortgagee in the New Agreement). The omission from a Statement of Estimated Liabilities of (x) any amounts payable to the Authority under the Agreement, (y) any unperformed obligations of the Lessee hereunder or (z) any other costs of the Authority shall not excuse the payment of such amounts or costs or the performance of such unperformed obligations.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 18.5 shall be deemed to limit or affect the Authority’s interest in and to such LMM Airport Facility upon the expiration of the Term of the New Agreement. The provisions of this Section 18.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter to the same extent as if this Section 18.5 were a separate and independent contract made by the Authority, the Lessee and the Leasehold Mortgagee and, if the Leasehold Mortgagee satisfies the conditions to a New Agreement from the effective date of such termination of this Agreement to the date of execution and delivery of the New Agreement, the Leasehold Mortgagee may use and enjoy the leasehold created by this Agreement (and all other rights and benefits provided to the Lessee hereunder) without hindrance by the Authority, but only on and subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 18.6 Right to Dispute Resolution. In each case specified in this Agreement in which resort to dispute resolution is authorized, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right and privilege if an event of default under the Leasehold Mortgage then exists and notice has been given to the Authority as contemplated by Section 18.1(f), in the Lessee’s name, place and stead, to obtain and participate in such dispute resolution upon notice to the Authority in accordance with Article 19; provided that the Leasehold Mortgagee agrees to be bound by the outcome of the dispute resolution process.

Section 18.7 Recognition by the Authority of Leasehold Mortgagee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if there is more than one Leasehold Mortgagee, only that Leasehold Mortgagee, to the exclusion of all other Leasehold Mortgagees, whose notice was earliest received by the Authority pursuant to the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice

137

Requirements, shall have the rights as a Leasehold Mortgagee under this Article 18, or otherwise under this Agreement, unless such Leasehold Mortgagee has designated in writing another Leasehold Mortgagee to exercise such rights; provided, however, that such notice may name more than one Leasehold Mortgagee and the rights referred to in this Section 18.7 may extend to all Leasehold Mortgagees named therein if such notice is submitted by a representative of all such Leasehold Mortgagees (which representative may itself be a Leasehold Mortgagee). Any references in this Agreement to the “Leasehold Mortgagee” shall be references to the Leasehold Mortgagee or representative of more than one Leasehold Mortgagee, acting on behalf of such Leasehold Mortgagees, whose notice was earliest received by the Authority pursuant to the Leasehold Mortgagee Notice Requirements unless the context otherwise requires.

Section 18.8 Authority’s Right to Purchase Leasehold Mortgage.

(a) If (i) any event of default by the Lessee has occurred under a Leasehold Mortgage and is continuing and (ii) the Leasehold Mortgagee recognized by the Authority pursuant to Section 18.7 is entitled, pursuant to the intercreditor arrangements then in force and effect, to declare all or part of the indebtedness secured by a Leasehold Mortgage to be immediately due and payable (or, in the case of a Leasehold Mortgage that is a lease, to terminate the lease), then, for 30 days commencing on the date that is 10 days after the date on which such Leasehold Mortgagee shall serve notice upon the Authority with a copy to all other Leasehold Mortgagees (the “Leasehold Mortgagee’s Notice”) that such Leasehold Mortgagee intends and is entitled to, pursuant to the intercreditor arrangements then in force and effect, to commence proceedings to foreclose the Leasehold Mortgage (stating the calculation of the purchase price pursuant to Section 18.8(c)) during such 30-day period, the Authority shall have the right and option (the “Authority’s Option”) to purchase from all Leasehold Mortgagees their Leasehold Mortgages, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Section 18.8.

(b) The Authority’s Option shall be exercised by written notice served upon the Lessee and all Leasehold Mortgagees within such 30-day period. Time shall be of the essence as to the exercise of the Authority’s Option. If the Authority’s Option is duly and timely exercised, the Authority shall purchase all Leasehold Mortgages and all Leasehold Mortgagees shall assign their Leasehold Mortgages to the Authority (or its designee) on the date which is 60 days after the date on which a Leasehold Mortgagee’s Notice is served upon the Authority. The closing shall take place at a mutually convenient time and place.

(c) The purchase price payable by the Authority shall be 100% of the aggregate amounts secured by or due under such Leasehold Mortgages (including principal, interest, fees, premiums, Breakage Costs, termination value and other costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and any other amounts secured thereby or due thereunder) as of the closing date of the purchase. The purchase price shall be paid in full in cash at closing by wire transfer or other immediately available funds. The purchase price shall be paid by the Authority to each respective Leasehold Mortgagee, to be applied by the Leasehold Mortgagee to the amounts secured by the Leasehold Mortgage owed to such Leasehold Mortgagee, subject to the priorities of lien of such Leasehold Mortgages.

(d) At the closing and upon payment in full of the purchase price each Leasehold Mortgagee shall assign its Leasehold Mortgage to the Authority, together with any

138

security interest held by it in the Lessee’s leasehold interest in the LMM Airport Facility, without recourse, representations, covenants or warranties of any kind, provided that such Leasehold Mortgages and security interests shall be deemed modified to secure the amount of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Authority to all Leasehold Mortgagees (rather than the indebtedness theretofore secured thereby) payable on demand, with interest and upon the other items referred to in this Section 18.8(d). Each such assignment shall be in form for recordation or filing, as the case may be. The Authority shall be responsible for paying any Taxes payable to any Governmental Authority upon such assignment.

(e) Any Leasehold Mortgage shall contain an agreement of the Leasehold Mortgagee to be bound by the provisions of this Section 18.8.

(f) The Authority shall have the right to receive (and each Leasehold Mortgage shall contain an agreement of the Leasehold Mortgagee to deliver) all notices of default under any Leasehold Mortgage contemporaneously with the delivery of such notices to the Lessee (with a copy of such notice to be delivered to the GDB), but the Authority shall not have the right to cure any default under any Leasehold Mortgage, except to the extent provided in this Section 18.8.

Section 18.9 Application of PFCs to Leasehold Mortgage Debt. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term due to a Lessee Default, the Authority agrees that in the event PFCs were being collected by the Lessee prior to such termination that were authorized by the FAA to be used for the payment of any Leasehold Mortgage Debt outstanding at the time of such termination, the Authority will, subject to the receipt of all necessary authorizations from the FAA, use its Reasonable Efforts to continue to collect such PFCs and apply them to the payment of such Leasehold Mortgage Debt to the same extent as they would have been applied by the Lessee in the absence of such termination.

ARTICLE 19
DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 19.1 Scope. Any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be resolved as set forth in this Article 19. The arbitral panel provided for in Section 19.4 shall have the power to rule upon any challenge to its jurisdiction. The Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the GDB (or any Designated Person appointed by it) shall be authorized to participate in or act for and on behalf of the Authority in any dispute resolution proceeding contemplated by this Article 19 from and after the Lessee’s receipt of notice from the Authority and the GDB confirming such participation or authority.

Section 19.2 Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures. The Parties agree that, at all times, they will attempt in good faith to resolve all disputes that may arise under this Agreement. The Parties further agree that, upon receipt of written notice of a dispute from a Party, the Parties will refer the dispute to the Designated Person of each Party. The Designated Persons shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute, conferring as often as they deem reasonably necessary, and shall gather and in good faith furnish to each other the information pertinent to the dispute. All communications between the Parties during the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section 19.2 are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations

139

and shall not be admissible in evidence by any proceeding without the mutual consent of the Parties.

Section 19.3 Mediation.

(a) Each Party to this Agreement agrees that it may not initiate a civil action as provided in Section 19.5 and Section 19.6 (other than provisional remedies sought on an expedited basis) unless (i) the matter in question has been submitted to mediation in accordance with the provisions of Section 19.3(b) or (ii) such Party would be barred from asserting its claim in a civil action if it were required to submit to mediation pursuant to Section 19.3(b).

(b) Mediation of a dispute under this Agreement may not be commenced until the earlier of: (i) such time as both of the Designated Persons, after following the procedures set forth in Section 19.2, conclude in good faith that amicable resolution through continued negotiation of the matter does not appear likely; or (ii) 30 days after the notice referring the dispute to the Designated Persons, pursuant to Article 19 (the “Negotiation Period”). If, after such time period, the dispute remains unresolved, either Party shall refer the dispute to a mediator, who shall be an attorney in good standing with the Puerto Rico Supreme Court or, if the matter in dispute is an engineering or technical dispute, the Parties shall refer the dispute to the Independent Engineer, subject to the rights of the Parties pursuant to Section 19.4. With respect to the selection of a mediator, the Parties, through their respective Designated Persons, shall attempt in good faith to agree on a mediator. If the Parties cannot so agree within 30 days after it is determined that the Designated Persons cannot resolve the dispute or after the end of the Negotiation Period, the Parties shall promptly apply to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for appointment of a single mediator in accordance with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the AAA without there being a requirement of previously filing a request for mediation thereunder. The mediator selected by the AAA shall be an attorney authorized to practice law in the United States or the Commonwealth. The mediator or the Independent Engineer, as the case may be, shall be paid for the mediation services, and shall be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in carrying out the mediation duties hereunder, including the costs of consultants. All fees and costs of the mediation (including payment for the services of the mediator or the Independent Engineer and reimbursement of all reasonable out-of-pockets costs (including the costs of consultants) of the mediator or the Independent Engineer) shall be shared equally by the Parties. The Parties shall request that the mediator schedule the mediation within 30 days of the mediator’s appointment (or in the case of the Independent Engineer, within 30 days after the Parties refer the dispute to the Independent Engineer), and shall comply with all procedures the mediator or the Independent Engineer establishes for the conduct of the mediation.

Section 19.4 Arbitration.

(a) Arbitration of Required Modifications. If the procedures described in Sections 19.2 and 19.3 do not result in resolution of a dispute arising under Section 5.2 within 30 Business Days from a reference to mediation, the dispute shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules for the AAA then in effect (the “AAA Commercial Rules”). Either Party may initiate the arbitration, as provided in the AAA Commercial Rules. The place of arbitration shall be San Xxxx, Puerto Rico, unless the Parties otherwise agree. Pursuant to Section 20.6, the arbitral panel shall determine the rights and

140

obligations of the Parties in accordance with the substantive laws of the Commonwealth and without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. Except as agreed by the Parties, the arbitral panel shall have no power to alter or modify any terms or provisions of this Agreement or to render any award that, by its terms or effects, would alter or modify any term or provision of this Agreement. The arbitral panel shall be composed of three arbitrators, one to be selected by the Authority, one to be selected by the Lessee and the third to be selected by the two previously-selected arbitrators. If the two previously-selected arbitrators cannot agree on the selection of the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the AAA Commercial Rules. Once the arbitral panel has been composed, the arbitrators shall act as neutrals and not as party arbitrators, and no Party shall engage in any ex parte communication with any member of the arbitral panel. Each Party shall bear equally the costs of the arbitral panel and attorneys’ fees as determined by the arbitral panel. The award shall include interest pursuant to Section 20.9 from the date of any breach or violation of this Agreement or the incurring of any obligation as determined in the arbitral award until paid in full. The award shall be in writing and state the reasons upon which it is based. The award shall be final and binding on the Parties. Judgment on the award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Technical Arbitration. Any engineering or technical dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be exclusively and finally settled in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules for the AAA then in effect (the “AAA Technical Arbitration Rules”) without submitting such dispute to mediation by the Independent Engineer pursuant to Section 19.3 and without submitting the dispute to arbitration pursuant to Section 19.4(a). Either Party may initiate the arbitration as provided in the AAA Technical Arbitration Rules. Such engineering arbitration shall be conducted by an Independent Engineering Arbitrator that is acceptable to the Authority and the Lessee. If the Parties fail to agree upon the Independent Engineering Arbitrator within five Business Days after the Parties agree to submit the dispute to engineering arbitration, then the Authority and the Lessee shall each appoint an Independent Engineering Arbitrator and both such arbitrators shall be instructed to select a third Independent Engineering Arbitrator to conduct the engineering arbitration (unless the Parties agree in writing for the dispute to be heard by one Independent Engineering Arbitrator, who will then be selected by the AAA). If the two previously selected Independent Engineering Arbitrators cannot agree on the selection of the third Independent Engineering Arbitrator, the third Independent Engineering Arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. The Parties shall each bear their own costs with respect to the arbitration of any such engineering dispute and shall bear equally the cost of retaining such Independent Engineering Arbitrator(s). The award of the Independent Engineering Arbitrator(s) shall be in writing and state the reasons upon which it is based. The award of the Independent Engineering Arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the Parties.

(c) Disputes Regarding Arbitrability. Any dispute between the Parties as to whether a dispute shall be submitted to arbitration under Sections 19.4(a) or (b) shall be resolved by initiation of an action in the Commonwealth Court of First Instance, San Xxxx Part (the “Commonwealth Court”) pursuant to Section 19.5.

Section 19.5 Court Action. In the event that the Parties fail to resolve the dispute within 90 days after the date the mediator is selected pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 19.3 (or such longer period as the Parties may mutually agree), either Party may initiate a civil action in Commonwealth Court and in accordance with all applicable rules of civil procedure;

141

provided that any engineering or technical dispute or claim regarding any Required Modification that is not resolved by mediation pursuant to Section 19.3 within the time period described in this Section 19.5 shall be submitted to arbitration pursuant to Section 19.4. The Parties acknowledge and understand that, to resolve any and all claims arising out of this Agreement (other than any engineering or technical claim or claim regarding any Required Modification), they may file a civil action, including actions in equity, in Commonwealth Court.

Section 19.6 Provisional Remedies. No Party shall be precluded from initiating a proceeding in Commonwealth Court for the purpose of obtaining any emergency or provisional remedy to protect its rights that may be necessary and that is not otherwise available under this Agreement, including temporary and preliminary injunctive relief, restraining orders, and the appointment of a receiver or manager in connection with the collection and retention of revenues generated at the LMM Airport Facility.

Section 19.7 Tolling. If a Party receiving a notice of default under this Agreement contests, disputes or challenges the propriety of such notice by making application to the dispute resolution procedure in this Article 19, any cure period that applies to such default shall be tolled for the time period between such application and the issuance of a final decision.

Section 19.8 Submission to Jurisdiction. Subject to Section 19.3 and Section 19.4, any judicial action or proceeding against the Lessee or the Authority relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in Commonwealth Court, and each of the Lessee and the Authority hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts with regard to any such action or proceeding, and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection it may have now or hereafter have to the jurisdiction and venue of any such action or proceeding therein and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought therein has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Service of process on the Authority shall be made in accordance with the Laws of the Commonwealth on the Secretary of the Authority at the address specified in Article 20 and the Attorney General of the Commonwealth. The foregoing shall not constitute the consent by the Authority to receive service of process for actions or proceedings brought and enforced in any court other than the Commonwealth Court. Service of process on the Lessee may be made either by registered or certified mail addressed as provided for in Article 20 or by delivery to the Lessee’s registered agent for service of process in the Commonwealth.

Section 19.9 Request for Documents; Subpoena Duces Tecum. If the Lessee is presented with a request for documents by any administrative agency or with a subpoena duces tecum regarding any documents that may be in its possession by reason of this Agreement, the Lessee shall, to the extent permitted by Law, give prompt notice to the Authority at the addresses specified for the Authority in Article 20. The Authority may contest such process by any means available to it before such records or documents are submitted to a court or other third party; provided, however, that the Lessee shall not be obligated to withhold such delivery beyond that time as may be ordered by the court or administrative agency or required by Law, unless the subpoena or request is quashed or the time to produce is otherwise extended.
