Sublessor's architect's certificate set forth in Section 2.5 unless (i)
Sublessee is unable to secure a certificate of occupancy within such one hundred
twenty (120) day period by reason of Sublessor's failure to properly complete
Base
-9-
Building Work or other causes attributable to Sublessor or (ii) Sublessee is
unable to secure a certificate of occupancy as a result of Sublessee's failure
to complete Tenant Work within such one hundred twenty (120) day period by
reason of a force majeure event as described in Section 2.3. In either of such
events, the commencement of the term shall be delayed for the number of days

notice ("Option Notice") to Sublessor of its exercise of each such option at
least twelve (12) months prior to the end of the Base Term or any applicable
extension period.
3.3. The options to extend the term hereby granted may not be exercised at any
time during which Sublessee is in default under any of the terms of this
Sublease, after expiration of all applicable grace periods.

the phrase "term" and "term of this Sublease" shall mean the Base Term plus any
duly exercised allowable extensions thereof.
3.5. In the event the Primary Sublease is terminated for any reason whatsoever,
this Sublease will automatically terminate on that same date, provided however,
such termination shall not affect any liability of Sublessor to Sublessee to the
extent that any such termination results from a breach of the Sublessor's
obligation under the Primary Lease or such termination results in a breach of
any obligations, covenants, terms, or condition of this Lease.
ARTICLE 4. BASE RENT
--------------------
4.1. The Base Rent shall be as follows:
Year 1 - $ 9.50 per square foot
Year 2 - $ 9.50 per square foot
Year 3 - $10.00 per square foot
-10-
Year 4 - $10.50 per square foot

Upon completion of the Building the Sublessor's architect shall certify
that the Building has been constructed as per the plans shown in Exhibit 3.
4.2. Base Rent due under Section 4.1 shall commence upon the Term Commencement
Date. The annual Base Rent shall be payable in each case in equal monthly
installments of one twelfth thereof in advance on the first day of each month
without offset in lawful money of the United States at the office of Sublessor
or at such other address as Sublessor may hereafter designate. In addition,
Sublessee agrees to pay when due, such other amounts that may be required to be
paid as Additional Rent as described herein. Sublessee's rent obligation for
any fractional portion of a calendar month at the beginning or end of the term
of this Sublease shall be appropriately pro-rated.
4.3. Additional Rent
The parties agree that this Sublease is to be deemed a Net Lease, and that
except as otherwise specifically allocated to the Sublessor under this Sublease,
all costs and expenses associated with the Subleased Premises or the operation
and maintenance thereof shall be the responsibility of the Sublessee. The term
Additional Rent shall therefore include the following:
i. Operating Expenses; The expenses listed on Exhibit 6 incurred by the
Sublessor on behalf of the Sublessee in the Sublessor's capacity as manager of
the Subleased Premises.
ii. Capital Water and Sewer Expenses: The Sublessee shall pay the share of
the City of Portsmouth charges for water and sewer capital expenses attributable
to the Subleased Premises. Such expenses shall be payable over the longest
period permitted by the City of Portsmouth, and Sublessor shall not agree with
the City of Portsmouth to have the same paid over a shorter period.
iii. Any other costs or expenses described as the responsibility of the
Sublessee under this Sublease.
4.3.1. Sublessee's Payments.
-----------------------------
For the purposes of this Article, a calendar year shall be called an
"Operating Year". At the commencement of the Base Term, the Sublessor shall
estimate the Additional Rent charges for the balance of the then current
Operating Year. Within sixty (60) days of the end of each Operating Year the
Sublessor shall reconcile the estimated Additional Rent charges with the actual
Additional Rent charges, and determine estimated Additional Rent charges for the
then current Operating Year. Additional Rent charges shall be payable by
Sublessee monthly and at the time and in the fashion herein provided for the
-11-
payment of Base Rent. After the end of each Operating Year, Sublessor shall
submit to Sublessee a reasonably detailed accounting of the Additional Rent
charges for such Year, and Sublessor shall certify to the accuracy thereof. If
estimated payments theretofore made for such Operating Year by Sublessee exceed
Sublessee's required payment on account thereof for such Year, Sublessor shall
credit the amount of the overpayment against the next subsequent obligations of
Sublessee with respect to Additional Rent charges (or refund such overpayment
if the term of this Sublease has ended and Sublessee has no further obligation
to Sublessor), but, if the required payments on account thereof for such
Operating Year are greater than the estimated payments (if any) theretofore
made on account thereof for such Year, Sublessee shall make payment to
Sublessor within thirty (30) days after being so advised by Sublessor.
Sublessor shall have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment by
Sublessee of any payments due on account of Additional Rent charges as
Sublessor has hereunder for the failure of Sublessee to pay Base Rent.
For any partial calendar year during the term (e.g. the first and last
year), the Additional Rent charges shall be determined in a manner which
reflects the partial calendar year, with such adjustment as shall be
appropriate.
Sublessor shall keep separate books and accounting records covering the
Additional Rent charges required to be paid by the Sublessee. Such books and
records shall be preserved for a period of 3 years. The Sublessee shall have
the right to audit those books and records, and if it is demonstrated that the
Sublessee has been overcharged by more than 5%, for any Operating Year, the
Sublessor shall reimburse the Sublessee for the cost of the audit, but in any
event shall be reimbursed for any overcharges.
4.4 Rent During Option Period
-------------------------
In the event that the Sublessee shall exercise its option to renew for any
additional five (5) year period, the Base Rent during that period shall be 95%
of the then Current Market Rental Rate for the Premises but in no case shall the
rent be less than the previous year's Base Rent The term "Current Market
Rental Rate" for purposes of this Sublease shall mean the annual amount per
rentable square foot that a willing sublessee of credit quality similar to
Sublessee would pay, and a willing comparable sublessor of the Building or a
comparable office building in the immediate vicinity of the Building would
accept, at arms length, giving appropriate consideration to annual rental rates
per rentable square foot, escalation clauses (including type, gross or net, and
if gross, whether base year or expense stop), and abatement provisions
reflecting free rent, length of lease term, size, condition and location of
premises being leased.
If Sublessee exercises the extension option, Sublessor and Sublessee shall
attempt to agree upon the Current Market Rental Rate using their best good-faith
efforts. If Sublessor and Sublessee fail to reach an agreement within thirty
(30) days following Sublessee's exercise of such extension option (the "Outside
Agreement Date"), then each party shall make a separate determination
-12-
of the current Market Rental Rate which shall be submitted to each other and to
arbitration in accordance with the following items (i) through (v):
(i) Sublessor and Sublessee shall each appoint, within ten (10) business
days of the Outside Agreement Date, one arbitrator who shall by profession be a
licensed, qualified MAI appraiser of comparable properties in the immediate
vicinity of the Building, and who has been active in such field over the last
five (5) years.
(ii) The two arbitrators so appointed shall within five (5) business daysof
the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and
appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set
forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two arbitrators.
(iii) The three arbitrators shall within fifteen (15) days of the
appointment of the third reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use
Sublessor's or Sublessee's submitted Current Market Rental Rate as closest to
the actual Current Market Rental Rate. The determination of the arbitrators
shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Sublessor's or Sublessee's
submitted Current Market Rental Rate is the closest to the actual Current Market
Rental Rate. The amount which is the closest, as determined by the arbitrators,
shall be deemed the Current Market Rental Rate, 95% of which, or the previous
years Base Rent, whichever is greater, shall be the Base Rent during the
applicable extension term. The decision of the Arbitrators shall be binding
upon Sublessor and Sublessee. If either Sublessor or Sublessee fails to appoint
an arbitrator within ten (10) business days after the applicable Outside
Agreement Date, the arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision,
notify Sublessor and Sublessee thereof, and such arbitrator's decision shall be
binding upon Sublessor and Sublessee.
(iv) If either Sublessor or Sublessee fails to appoint an arbitrator within
ten (10) business days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, the
arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, notify Sublessor and
Sublessee thereof, and such arbitrator's decision shall be binding upon
Sublessor and Sublessee.
(v) The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Sublessor and Sublessee
equally.
All other additional rent shall also be paid, as provided in Section 4.3
above.
ARTICLE 5. TAXES
----------------
5.1. Sublessee shall be responsible for the Base Taxes assessed against the
Premises by the City of Portsmouth or other applicable taxing authority. At the
time when the City of Portsmouth shall make its initial and any subsequent
assessment of Real Estate taxes, the Sublessor shall notify the Sublessee of the
amount due hereunder which shall be paid by the Sublessee or the City of
-13-
Portsmouth or other taxing authority within ten (10) days of such notification
or such later time as such amount shall be due. Base Taxes shall be deemed to
include any special assessments levied by the applicable taxing authority
provided, however, that the same shall be payable over the longest period
permitted by law. Base Taxes shall not include taxes assessed against or with
respect to the income of Sublessor or the rents received by Sublessor.
5.2. Sublessee shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to file tax
abatement proceedings after providing a ten (10) day notice of such action with
the Sublessor and after a consultation discussion with the Sublessor which shall
occur not later than ten (10) days after the Sublessee's notice. Sublessee's
rights hereunder shall not alter the Sublessee's obligation under Paragraph 5.1
above.
ARTICLE 6. SURRENDER OF SUBLEASED PREMISES
------------------------------------------
6.1. On the expiration or termination of this Sublease, Sublessee shall
surrender to Sublessor the Subleased Premises, including all improvements and
fixtures therein except those listed in Exhibit 7, whether leased to or
otherwise owned by Sublessee, broom clean and in good order, condition and

expense that can be removed without damage to any buildings, facilities or other
improvements to the Subleased Premises. The Subleased Premises, including the
improvements and fixtures therein, shall be delivered free and clear of all
subtenancies, liens and encumbrances, other than those, if any, permitted hereby
or otherwise created or consented to by Sublessor, and, if requested to do so,
Sublessee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Sublessor such instruments
of further assurance as in the opinion of Sublessor are necessary or desirable
to confirm or perfect Sublessor's right, title and interest in and to the
Subleased Premises including said improvements and fixtures. On or before the
end of the Sublease term, Sublessee shall remove all of Sublessee's personal and
other property allowed to be removed hereunder, and all such property not

7.1. Sublessee agrees to maintain in full force from the date upon which
Sublessee first enters the Premises for any reason, throughout the term of this
Sublease, and thereafter so long as Sublessee is in occupancy of any part of the
Premises, a policy of general liability and property damage insurance (including
broad form contractual liability, independent contractor's hazard and completed
operations coverage) under which Sublessor, Sublessor's manager and such other
persons as are in privity of estate with Sublessor as may be set out in
-14-
notice from time to time are named as additional insureds, and under which the
insurer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Sublessor, Sublessor's manager, and
those in privity of estate with Sublessor, harmless from and against all cost,
expense and/or liability arising out of or based upon any and all claims,
accidents, injuries and damages for bodily injury and property damage arising
from the negligent, act or omission of Sublessee or it's employees. Each such
policy shall be non-cancelable unless replaced with comparable coverage from
another carrier, and non-amendable with respect to Sublessor, Sublessor's
manager and Sublessor's said designees without sixty (60) days' prior notice to
Sublessor and shall be as follows:
(1) Comprehensive general liability insurance to a limit of not less
than three million ($3,000,000) dollars, on an "occurrence basis" against claims
for "personal injury", including without limitation, bodily injury, death or
property damages, occurring upon, in or about the Subleased Premises as required
pursuant to the Primary Sublease.
(2) Worker's compensation and employer's liability insurance in an
amount and form which meets all applicable requirements of the labor laws of the
State of New Hampshire, as amended from time to time, and which specifically
covers the persons and risks involved in this Sublease.
(3) Automobile liability insurance in amounts not less than one
million ($1,000,000) dollars combined single limit for owned, hired and non-
owned automobiles.
(4) The Sublessor reserves the right to require reasonable adjustment
in the amount of insurance coverage as of the end of each five (5) year period
under the Sublease.
7.2. All policies of insurance required to be carried under this Article shall
be effected under valid and enforceable policies, in such forms and amounts as
may, from time to time, be required under this Sublease, issued by insurers of
recognized responsibility which are authorized to transact such insurance
coverage in the State of New Hampshire. All such policies of comprehensive
general liability insurance shall name Sublessor, PDA, and the United States of
America as additional insureds. Upon the Term Commencement Date (and
thereafter not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of each
policy furnished pursuant to this Article) a copy of each policy required to be
furnished pursuant to this Article (or, with the consent of Sublessor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, a certificate of the insurer
reasonably satisfactory to Sublessor) bearing a notation evidencing the payment
of the premium or accompanied by other evidence reasonably satisfactory to
Sublessor of such payment, shall be delivered by Sublessee to Sublessor.
7.3. This Section intentionally left blank.
7.4. Each such policy or certificate therefor issued by the insurer shall to
the extent obtainable contain (i) a provision that no act or omission of
Sublessee, or
-15-
any employee, officer or agent of Sublessee, which would otherwise result in
forfeiture or reduction of the insurance therein provided shall affect or limit
the obligation of the insurance company to pay the amount of any loss sustained,
(ii) an agreement by the insurer that such policy shall not be cancelled without
at least sixty (60) days prior written notice by registered mail to Sublessor
and PDA, and (iii) containing a provision that the insurer shall have no right
of subrogation against PDA and the United States of America.
7.5. This Section Intentionally left blank.
7.6. Sublessee shall observe and comply with the requirements of all policies
of insurance at any time in force with respect to the Subleased Premises and
Sublessee shall also perform and satisfy the requirements of the companies
writing such policies so that at all times companies of good standing shall be
willing to write or to continue such insurance. Sublessee shall, in the event
of any violations or attempted violations of the provisions of this Section 7.6
by a subtenant, take steps, immediately upon knowledge of such violation or
attempted violation, to remedy or prevent the same as the case may be.
7.7. Any insurance provided for in this Sublease may be effected by a policy or
policies of blanket insurance and provided further that in all other respects,
any such policy or policies shall comply with the other provisions of this
Sublease. In any such case it shall not be necessary to deliver the original of
any such blanket policy to Sublessor, but Sublessee shall deliver to Sublessor
and to any Mortgagee a certificate or duplicate of such policy in form and
content acceptable to Sublessor.
7.8. To the maximum extent this agreement may be made effective according to
law, Sublessee agrees to use and occupy the Premises and to use such other
portions of the Property as Sublessee is herein given the right to use at
Sublessee's own risk; and Sublessor shall have no responsibility or liability
for any loss of or damage to Sublessee's removable property, or for any
inconvenience, annoyance, interruption or injury to business arising from
Sublessor's making any repairs or changes which Sublessor is permitted by this
Sublease or required by law to make in or to any portion of the Premises or
other sections of the Property, or in or to the fixtures, equipment or
appurtenances thereof, except where the Sublessor is negligent in making such
repairs. Sublessee shall carry "all-risk" property insurance on a "replacement
cost" basis (including so-called improvements and betterments), or be self
insured (with respect to the Sublessee's removable property), and provide a
mutual waiver of subrogation for both parties. The provisions of this Section
shall be applicable from and after the execution of this Sublease and until the
end of the term of this Sublease, and during such further period as Sublessee
may use or be in occupancy of any part of the Premises or of the Building.
7.9. This Section left intentionally blank.
7.10. Sublessor shall maintain in full force from the date upon which
Sublessee first enters the Premises for any reason, throughout the term, a
policy of
-16-
insurance upon the Building insuring against all risks of physical loss or
damage under an All Risk coverage endorsement in an amount at least equal to the
full replacement value of the property insured, with an Agreed Amount
endorsement to satisfy co-insurance requirements, as well as insurance against
breakdown of boilers and other machinery as customarily insured against. Such
insurance shall cover both the Base Building Work and Tenant Work. Sublessor
shall supply to Sublessee from time to time upon request of Sublessee
certificates of all such insurance issued by or on behalf of the insurers named
therein by a duly authorized agent and shall name Sublessee as an additional
insured as its interests may appear. All policies of insurance maintained by
Sublessor shall contain the same waiver of subrogation provisions for the
benefit of Sublessee as Sublessee is required to obtain in its insurance
policies for the benefit of Sublessor. In the event the Sublessee shall be able
to obtain such insurance at lesser cost than the Sublessor, Sublessee shall be
allowed to place such insurance. In the event that the Building shall not be
reconstructed under Article 16.1., the Sublessee shall be entitled to such
portion of the insurance proceeds as shall be allocable to the value of the
unamortized Tenant Work and insurable improvements made by the Sublessee.
ARTICLE 8. USE OF SUBLEASED PREMISES
------------------------------------
8.1. The purposes for which Sublessee may use the Subleased Premises are as set
forth in Summary Of Basic Lease Provisions and Recitals, and for no other uses
without Sublessor's and PDA's prior written consent. Sublessee shall not use,
or permit to be used, the Subleased Premises for any other purpose without the
prior express written consent of Sublessor and PDA. Sublessor's and PDA's
consent shall be subject to the execution of an appropriate agreement which
shall include a provision requiring the payment of established fees and charges
that may be applicable to any such additional uses consented to by Sublessor and
PDA. Sublessee is prohibited from any use of the Subleased Premises not
granted in this Section 8.1.
8.2. Sublessee recognizes that the uses authorized in Section 8.1 are not
granted on an exclusive basis and that Sublessor and PDA may enter into
subleases or other agreements with other tenants or users at areas of the
Airport for similar, identical, or competing uses. No provision of this
Sublease shall be construed as granting or authorizing the granting of an
exclusive right within the meaning of Section 308 of the Federal Aviation Act as
the same may be amended from time to time.
8.3. Except to the extent the maintenance obligation is the responsibility of
the Sublessor hereunder, Sublessee agrees that it will keep the Premises in a
neat, clean and orderly condition in accordance the provisions of Chapters 300
through 500 of the Xxxxx Development Authority Zoning Requirements, Site Plan
Review Regulations and Subdivision Regulations (collectively the "Land Use
Controls") and such other rules and regulations from time to time promulgated by
the PDA, provided that Sublessee shall not be bound by any such rules and
regulations until such time as it receives a copy thereof. Sublessor agrees to
cause trash
-17-
receptacles to be emptied and trash removed at Sublessee's sole cost and
expense.
8.4. Sublessee shall obtain all certificates, permits, licenses or other
entitlements required by federal, state or local laws in order to allow
Sublessee to conduct the permitted uses hereunder (other than the Approvals,
which are to be obtained by the Sublessor ), and that the same are and will be
kept current, valid and complete. Sublessee further warrants that it shall at
all times abide by and conform with all terms of the same and that it shall give
immediate notice to Sublessor of any additions, renewals, amendments,
suspensions or revocations. In the use and occupation of the Subleased Premises
and the conduct of such business thereon, Sublessee, at its sole cost and
expense, shall promptly comply with all present and future laws, ordinances,
orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all federal, state and municipal
governments, courts, departments, commissions and boards, any national, state or
local Board of Fire Underwriters, or any other body exercising functions similar
to those of any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other
provision of this Sublease, however, Sublessee shall not be responsible for
compliance with any such laws, regulations, or the like requiring (i) structural
repairs or modifications or (ii) repairs or modifications to the utility or
Building service equipment or (iii) installation of new Building service
equipment, such as fire detection or suppression equipment, unless such repairs,
modifications, or installations shall (a) be due to Sublessee's particular
manner of use of the Premises (other than the primary use contemplated herein),
or (b) be due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Sublessee or any agent,
employee, or contractor of Sublessee, and Sublessor shall be responsible for
compliance with all such laws to the extent Sublessee is not responsible for
compliance, provided that, except to the extent that such noncompliance existed
at the commencement of the term, the costs of such compliance shall be included
in the Operating Expenses to the extent appropriately amortized in any
applicable Operating Year in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied.
8.5. Sublessee shall have the right to contest by appropriate proceedings
diligently conducted in good faith, without cost or expense to Sublessor, the
validity or application of any law, ordinance, order, rule, regulation or
requirement of the nature referred to in this Article. If compliance with any
such law, ordinance, order, rule, regulation or requirement may be delayed on
the basis of an order from a court of competent jurisdiction pending the
prosecution of any such proceeding without the incurrence of any lien, charge or
liability of any kind against the Subleased Premises or Sublessee's interest
therein and without subjecting Sublessor to any liability, civil or criminal,
for failure so to comply therewith, Sublessee may delay compliance therewith
consistent with such court order. Even if such lien, charge or civil liability
would be incurred by reason of any such delay, Sublessee may, with the prior
written consent of Sublessor, contest as aforesaid and delay as aforesaid,
provided that such contest or delay does not subject Sublessor to criminal
liability, damages or expense and provided that Sublessee: (i) furnishes to
Sublessor security, reasonably
-18-
satisfactory to Sublessor, against any loss or injury by reason of such contest
or delay; and (ii) prosecutes the contest with due diligence.
Sublessor and PDA shall not be required to join in any proceedings referred
to in this Section unless the provisions of any applicable laws, rules or
regulations at the time in effect shall require that such proceedings be brought
by and/or in the name of Sublessor and/or PDA and Sublessor and/or PDA
determines that such action is in its best interests, in which event Sublessor
and/or PDA shall join in the proceedings, or permit the same to be brought in
its name, if Sublessee shall pay all expenses in connection therewith.
8.6. This Section Intentionally Left Blank.
8.7. Sublessee's use of the Subleased Premises shall be orderly and efficient
and shall not cause any disruptions to other Airport activities or unreasonable
disruption to other tenants in the Airport District. Sublessee shall not cause
or maintain any nuisance on the Subleased Premises. Sublessee shall conduct all
of its activities hereunder in an environmentally responsible manner.
8.8. Sublessee shall have the right to obtain supplies or services from
suppliers, vendors or contractors of its own choice at the Subleased Premises,
provided that PDA in the Primary Sublease reserved the right to prohibit persons
from engaging in "aeronautical activities" (as defined in Advisory Circular AC
150/5190-2A of the Federal Aviation Administration) or the provision of ground
transportation services at the Airport except in accordance with concession
contracts or operating agreements entered into between PDA and said persons.
8.9. Sublessee acknowledges that PDA is subject to certain restrictions on the
use of the Airport Property in accordance with Conditions 6, 10, 17, 23, 25 and
25A of the Master Lease. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease
or the Primary Sublease, the Sublessee shall be subject to the restrictions in
Conditions 6,10, 17, 23, 25 and 25A of the Master Lease to the extent applicable
to the Subleased Premises or any rights granted to Sublessee under Sublease in
the same manner and to the same extent as PDA is obligated in its capacity as
Lessee under the Master Lease. Sublessor warrants to Sublessee that (a) the use
of the Subleased Premises for the uses permitted hereunder constitutes a "public
airport purpose" as set forth in Condition 6 of the Master Lease, (b) Sublessor
has obtained, or will obtain prior to the date set forth in Exhibit 3 for
obtaining a building permit, all consents and approvals required under
Conditions 17 and 23 of the Master Lease to construct the Building and (c) the
use of the Subleased Premises for the uses permitted hereunder will not cause a
violation of any provision of any of the Master Sublease (including without
limitation the provisions of Conditions 6, 10, 17, 22, 23, 25 and 25A thereof),
Application, Acceptances or FFA.
8.10. Sublessee agrees to conform to the following provisions during the term
of this Sublease: (i) Sublessee shall, at its sole cost and expense in its use
of the Building or the Subleased Premises, comply with the requirements of all
applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations including, without
limitation,
-19-
the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (the "ADA") and (ii) in
the event Sublessee does any work or makes any improvements after commencement
of the term, pay for and perform any work necessary to bring the Premises, the
Building or the Subleased Premises into compliance with the ADA which work is
required due to the Sublessee's particular use of the Premises or the Building.
The Sublessor hereby certifies that the Base Building Work shall conform to the
then existing ADA requirements.
ARTICLE 9. LIENS
----------------
9.1. During the term of this Sublease, Sublessee shall not permit to remain,
and shall promptly discharge, at its cost and expense, all liens, encumbrances
and charges upon the Subleased Premises or any part thereof resulting from or
caused by work performed on behalf of the Sublessee; provided, that the
existence of any mechanics', laborers', materialmen's, suppliers' or vendors'
liens or rights thereto shall not constitute a violation of this Article if
payment is not yet due under the applicable contract. Sublessee shall, however,
have the right to contest with due diligence the validity or amount of any lien
or claimed lien, if Sublessee shall give to Sublessor such security as Sublessor
may reasonably require to insure payment thereof and prevent any sale,
foreclosure or forfeiture of Sublessee's interest in the Subleased Premises or
any portion thereof by reason of such nonpayment. On final determination of the
lien or claim for lien, Sublessee shall immediately pay any judgment rendered
with all proper costs and charges and shall have the lien released or judgment
satisfied at Sublessee's own expense, and if Sublessee shall fail to do so,
Sublessor may at its option pay any such final judgment and clear the Subleased
Premises therefrom. If Sublessee shall fail to contest with due diligence the
validity or amount of any such lien or claimed lien, or to give Sublessor
security as hereinabove provided, Sublessor may, but shall not be required to,
contest the validity or amount of any such lien or claimed lien or settle or
compromise the same without inquiring into the validity of the claim or the
reasonableness of the amount thereof, and in the event of any Sublessor payment
of such lien amount the Sublessor shall be entitled to an additional 20% of such
amount as a penalty and the lien amount and penalty shall be charged to the
Sublessee as Additional Rent hereunder.
9.2. Should any lien be filed against the Subleased Premises or the Building in
which the Subleased Premises are a part, or should any action of any character
affecting the title thereto be commenced, Sublessee shall give to Sublessor
written notice thereof as soon as notice of such lien or action comes to the
knowledge of Sublessee.
ARTICLE 10. ALTERATIONS
-----------------------
10.1. The Sublessee shall have the right to make or construct any cosmetic
changes to the Building or undertake changes or alterations of the non-
structural portions of the Building or Premises, costing less than $50,000
without obtaining Sublessor's approval provided that the Sublessee shall notify
the Sublessor of such alterations. Any non-cosmetic changes or alterations
which shall either
-20-
exceed the $50,000 cost or include structural changes, or any changes which
shall involve changes to the mechanical or HVAC systems, shall require the
consent of the Sublessor, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld
following written notice by the Sublessee. Any request for Sublessor's consent
shall be accompanied by preliminary engineering or architectural plans or, if
consented to by the Sublessor, working drawings. The consent of the Sublessor
will be deemed granted if not withheld within 15 days after request thereof. If
such consents are granted or deemed granted, all such work shall be done at
Sublessee's sole cost, and subject to the following covenants.
(1) All work and alterations shall be done in compliance with all
applicable governmental regulations, codes, standards or other requirements,
including fire, safety and building codes and Land Use Regulations promulgated
by PDA and with the provisions of Article 22 of this Sublease. This obligation
shall include compliance with all applicable provisions of the FFA (as defined
in Article 22), including obligations imposed upon Sublessor in respect to
construction and construction related work.
(2) All alterations shall be of such a character as not to materially
reduce the value and usefulness of any of the Building or other improvements
below their value and usefulness immediately before such alteration (unless
Sublessee undertakes to remove such alterations and restore the Premises upon
termination of the Lease). All work performed hereunder shall be performed in a
good and workmanlike manner, shall conform to drawings and specifications
approved by Sublessor and shall not be disruptive of the overall operation of
the Airport. All contractors engaged by Sublessee to perform such work shall
employ labor that can work in harmony with all elements of labor at the Airport.
(3) During the period of construction of any alteration, Sublessee or
any contractor, subcontractor or sublessee of Sublessee shall maintain or cause
to be maintained the following insurance:
(i) The comprehensive general liability and automobile insurance provided
for in Article 7 and shall be maintained for the limits specified thereunder and
shall provide coverage for the mutual benefit of Sublessor, PDA, the United
States of America and Sublessee as named or additional insured (as is
appropriate) in connection with any alteration permitted pursuant to this
Article 10.
(ii) Fire and any other applicable insurance provided for in Article 7
which if not then covered under the provisions of existing policies shall be
covered by special endorsement thereto in respect to any alteration, including
all materials and equipment therefor incorporated in, on, or about the Subleased
Premises ( including excavations, foundations, and footings) under broad form
all risk builder's risk completed value form or equivalent thereof; and
(iii) Worker's compensation insurance covering all persons employed in
connections with the work and with respect to whom death or bodily injury claims
-21-
could be asserted against PDA, Sublessor, Sublessee or the Subleased Premises,
with statutory limits as then required under the laws of the State of New
Hampshire.
(4) Sublessee shall provide Sublessor and PDA with MYLAR as-built
drawings when any alteration other than cosmetic changes authorized hereunder is
completed.
10.2. Sublessee may erect and maintain suitable monument and on Building back
lit signs at the Subleased Premises upon receiving the prior written approval
of Sublessor and PDA, the approval of Sublessor not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. Sublessee shall submit drawings of proposed signs and information
on the number, size, type, and location, all of which Sublessor and PDA may
review for harmony and conformity with the overall structure and architectural
and aesthetic setting of the Building and the Airport as well as with PDA's own
land use control regulations and may approve or disapprove accordingly.
10.3. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease, the right of
Sublessee to place or construct alterations in, to, or upon the Subleased
Premises shall be subject to Condition 17 of the Master Lease.
10.4. In addition to the requirements to provide notice to Sublessor and PDA
under this Article 10 in respect to any alteration, Sublessee shall also provide
notice to Air Force, EPA and NHDES in the same manner and to the extent required
of PDA under Condition 10.16 of the Master Lease. In undertaking any alteration
Sublessee shall comply with Condition 10.17 of the Master Lease to the same
extent required of Sublessor and PDA.
ARTICLE 11. RIGHT OF SUBLESSOR TO INSPECT AND REPAIR
----------------------------------------------------
11.1. Sublessee will permit Sublessor and/or PDA and their authorized agents
and representatives to enter the Subleased Premises at all reasonable times and
upon reasonable notice for the purpose of: (i) inspecting the same; (ii)
showing the Premises to prospective purchasers, or tenants; and (iii) making any
necessary repairs and performing any other work that may be necessary by reason
of Sublessee's failure to comply with the terms of this Sublease within any
applicable grace period provided for in this Sublease with respect to a default
by Sublessee, unless an emergency situation (as determined in Sublessor's and/or
PDA's sole discretion) requires earlier action by Sublessor. Nothing herein
shall imply any duty upon the part of Sublessor and/or PDA to do any such work
and performance thereof by Sublessor and/or PDA shall not constitute a waiver of
Sublessee's default in failing to perform the same. Sublessor and/or PDA may
during the progress of such work keep and store in or on the Subleased Premises
all necessary materials, tools, supplies and equipment. Sublessor and/or PDA
shall not be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance, loss of business
or other damage of Sublessee by reason of making such repairs or the performance
of any such work, on or account of bringing materials, tools, supplies or
equipment into or through the Subleased Premises during the course
-22-
thereof and the obligations of Sublessee under this Sublease shall not be
affected thereby. Nothing herein shall limit the provisions of Article 8. In
exercising its rights under this Section 11.1, Sublessor shall use diligent
efforts to prevent or minimize interference with Sublessee's use and enjoyment
of the Premises.
11.2. Sublessee acknowledges that from time to time PDA may undertake
construction, repair or other activities related to the operation, maintenance
and repair of the Airport which will require temporary accommodation by
Sublessee. Sublessee agrees to accommodate PDA in such matters, even though
Sublessee's own activities may be inconvenienced or partially impaired, and
Sublessee agrees that no liability shall attach to PDA, its members, employees
or agents by reason of such inconvenience or impairment, unless such activities
of PDA hereunder are performed in a negligent manner.
11.3. Sublessee shall allow PDA and any agency of the United States, its
officers, agents, employees and contractors to enter upon the Subleased Premises
upon reasonable prior notice for any purposes not inconsistent with Sublessee's
quiet use and enjoyment, including but not limited to the purpose of inspection.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event the Air Force as Lessor
under the Master Lease (or any other agency having a right of entry under the
Federal Facilities Agreement (FFA) as defined in Section 22.8) or PDA as
Sublessor under the Primary Lease determines that immediate entry is required
for safety, environmental, operations or security purposes they may effect such
entry without prior notice. The Sublessee shall have no claim against PDA or
against the United States or any officer, agent, employee or contractor thereof
on account of any such entries.

against and from any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines,
assessments, costs and expenses, liabilities and losses (including, without

(including ramp and parking areas), or upon the land, streets, curbs or parking
areas adjacent thereto.
-23-
In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against Sublessor by
reason of any matter for which Sublessee has hereby agreed to indemnify, defend,
or hold harmless Sublessor, Sublessee, upon notice from Sublessor, covenants to
resist or defend such action or proceeding with counsel reasonably acceptable to
Sublessor.
12.2. The indemnity provided for in this Article shall extend to and include
individuals, corporations, partnerships, governmental units and any other legal
entity entitled to bring a claim, action or other demand or proceeding on its
own behalf or on behalf of any other entity.
12.3. The Sublessee also expressly waives any claims against the United States
of America, including the Air Force, and further agrees to indemnify, save, hold
harmless and defend the Air Force to the same extent required of PDA under the
Master Lease.
12.4. The Sublessee also expressly waives any claims against PDA and the State
of New Hampshire and further agrees to indemnify, save, hold harmless and defend

occurring during the term of this Sublease.
In the event that any action or proceedings is brought against Sublessee by
reason of any matter for which Sublessor has hereby agreed to indemnify, defend,
or hold harmless Sublessee, Sublessor, upon notice from Sublessee, covenants to
resist or defend such action or proceeding with counsel reasonably acceptable to
Sublessor.
The indemnity provided for in this Section shall extend to and include
individuals, corporations, partnerships, governmental units and any other legal
entity entitled to bring a claim, action, or other demand or proceeding on its
own behalf or on behalf of any other entity.
-24-
ARTICLE 13. UTILITIES
---------------------
13.1. Sublessor shall bring or shall cause utility lines to be brought to the
Subleased Premises at the points shown on Exhibits 2 & 3. The utility lines as
shown on the Exhibit 2 & 3 Plans shall have the capacities set forth therein
Term which Sublessee acknowledges are sufficient to enable Sublessee to obtain
for the Subleased Premises, as of the date of commencement of Sublessee's
activities, sufficient water, electricity, telephone and sewer service.
Sublessee shall not at any time overburden or exceed the capacity of the mains,
feeders, ducts, conduits, or other facilities by which such utilities are
supplied to, distributed in or serve the Subleased Premises. If Sublessee
desires to install any equipment which shall require additional utility
facilities or utility facilities of a greater capacity than the facilities
provided by Sublessor, such installation shall be subject to Sublessor's and, if
necessary, PDA's prior written approval of Sublessee's plans and specifications
therefor, and the Sublessor's approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such
approval shall be deemed granted if the Sublessor shall not respond within 15
days of receipt of Sublessee's written request therefor and shall fail again to
respond 10 days after receipt of Sublessee's second written request therefor. If
such installation is approved by Sublessor and PDA and if Sublessor and PDA
agrees to provide any additional facilities to accommodate Sublessee's
installation, Sublessee agrees to pay Sublessor and/or PDA, in advance and on
demand, the cost for providing such additional utility facilities or utility
facilities of greater capacity.
PDA under the Primary Lease also reserved the right to run such utility
lines as it deems necessary in connection with the development of the Airport
to, from, or through the Subleased Premise, provided, however, that PDA in
exercising such reserved right shall provide reasonable prior notice and the
opportunity to confer with PDA and shall exercise reasonable efforts to avoid or
minimize interference with use of the Subleased Premises.
PDA under the Primary Lease, at its sole discretion, shall have the right
from time to time, to alter the method and source of supply of the above
enumerated utilities to the Subleased Premises and Sublessee agrees to execute
and deliver to PDA such documentation as may be required to effect such

terminates this Sublease as provided in this Article. The Sublessee shall be
liable for a 5% late charge applicable to any amounts due under this Sublease,

and then to the payment of rent and all other payments due from Sublessee to
Sublessor. The Sublessor shall, commensurate with any demand for payment of any
of the above as to expenses or rent, provide the Sublessee with an itemization
of all such items as a condition to the Sublessee's obligations to make payment.

other of its promises, covenants, or agreements contained in this Sublease and

such default or breach of performance provided, however, that if the default
complained of, is of such a nature that the same cannot be rectified or cured
within such thirty (30 day period, then such default shall be deemed to be
rectified or cured if Sublessor, within such thirty (30) day period, shall have
commenced such cure and shall continue thereafter with due diligence to cause
-30-
such cure to be completed. Upon any default of this Sublease by Sublessor,
Sublessee shall be entitled to pursue any and all remedies available to
Sublessee at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right of self-
help. In the event Sublessor fails to cure the default within ten (10) days

obligation, to cure such default itself, and the costs incurred by Sublessee in
curing such default shall be offset against the Base Rent next coming due until

will subordinate this Sublease and the lien hereof to the lien of any present or
future mortgage or mortgages upon the Subleased Premises, any property of which
the Subleased Premises are a part, or upon any ground lease of such property or
upon any part thereof, irrespective of the time of execution or time of
recording of any sub mortgage or mortgages. Sublessee agrees that it will, upon
the request of Sublessor, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all
instruments deemed by Sublessor necessary or desirable to give effect or notice
of such subordination. The word "mortgage" as used herein includes mortgages,
deeds of trust, or other similar instruments and modifications, consolidations,
extensions, renewals, replacements and substitutes thereof. At the request of
the holder of any mortgage upon the Subleased Premises or any property of which

this Sublease, thereby making this Sublease superior to such mortgage, by
recording in the Rockingham County Registry of Deeds, a Notice of Subordination
or other document of like effect, executed unilaterally by such mortgage.
Whether the lien of any mortgage shall be superior or subordinate to this
Sublease and the lien hereof, Sublessee agrees that , if requested by Sublessor
or the holder of such mortgage, it will attorn to the holder of such mortgage or
anyone claiming under such holder and their respective successors and assigns in
the event of foreclosure of or similar action taken under such mortgage.
Sublessor agrees that it shall provide to Sublessee Non-Disturbance Agreements
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Sublessee from PDA and any then
existing holder of a mortgage upon the Premises prior to the commencement of
construction of the Building. Such agreement from PDA shall be substantially
as shown in Exhibit 14 attached hereto.
ARTICLE 20. CERTIFICATE

20.1. Within ten (10) business days after written request therefor by
Sublessor, Sublessee agrees to deliver to Sublessor or to any mortgagee a
certificate stating (if such be the case) that Sublessee has entered into
occupancy of the Subleased Premises in accordance with the provisions of this
Sublease, that this Sublease is in full force and effect (if such be the case),
that Sublessor has performed the construction required of Sublessor, and any
other information reasonably requested. Sublessor agrees to provide Sublessee
with any similar certificate upon request by the Sublessee, including a
statement that no default
-31-
exists under the Primary Sublease, and that the Primary Sublease is in full
force and effect.
ARTICLE 21. ASSIGNMENT, SUBLEASES, MORTGAGE, RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER
-----------------------------------------------------------------
21.1. Sublessee shall not assign this Sublease without the written consent of
the Sublessor, provided however, that Sublessee may, without Sublessor's or the
PDA's prior written consent, but upon notice to Sublessor and PDA, sublet all or
any portion of the Premises or assign Sublessee's interest in this Sublease to a
subsidiary, affiliate, parent or other entity which controls, is controlled by,
or is under common control with Sublessee provided that Sublessee shall continue
to remain liable hereunder.
21.2. Except as provided in 21.1 above, Sublessee shall not assign or enter
into any sublease of the Subleased Premises without Sublessor's prior written
approval of Sublessor and PDA. Any request for Sublessor's approval shall be
made at least 21 days prior to the commencement of such tenancy, and shall
provide reasonably detailed information concerning the identity and financial
condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee and the terms and conditions of
the proposed assignment or sublease. Sublessor and PDA shall not unreasonably
withhold or delay consent to such assignment or sublease if (1) the use of the
Subleased Premises is a permitted use under this Sublease; (2) the sublease is
consistent with the terms and conditions of this Sublease; (3) Sublessee remains
primarily liable to Sublessor to pay rent and perform all other obligations to
be performed by Sublessee under this Sublease. Furthermore, neither Sublessor
nor PDA shall unreasonably withhold or delay consent to an assignment or
subletting in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition or
reorganization of Sublessee.
If Sublessor shall fail to respond to the Sublessee's request within 15
days after receipt of the request, such request shall be deemed approved.
Sublessee shall not employ a broker to market the Subleased Premises or any
portion thereof other than Sublessor's agent. This provision shall not apply in
the event that 85% of the ownership interest in the Sublessor shall change, in
which event the Sublessor shall so notify the Sublessee.
21.3. Continuing Liability of Sublessee. No subletting, assignment or
transfer, whether Sublessor's consent is required or otherwise given hereunder,
shall release Sublessee's obligations or alter the primary liability of
Sublessee to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed
by Sublessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Sublessor from any other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Sublessor of any provision hereof.
Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any
subsequent assignment or subletting. If any assignee of Sublessee or any
successor of Sublessee defaults in the performance of any of the terms hereof,
Sublessor may proceed directly against Sublessee without the necessity of
exhausting remedies against such assignee or successor. If Sublessee assigns
this Sublease, or
-32-
sublets all or a portion of the Subleased Premises, or requests the consent of
Sublessor to any assignment or subletting, or if Sublessee requests the consent
of Sublessor for any act that Sublessee proposes to do, then Sublessee shall pay
Sublessor's reasonable processing fee and reimburse Sublessor for all reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith. Any assignment or subletting
of the Subleased Premises that is not in compliance with the provisions of this
Article 21 shall be void.

sublease shall comply with the provision of Article 22 including the notice
requirements of Condition 10.8 of the FFA (as that term is defined in Section
22.8) and the terms and conditions of the Primary Sublease.
21.5. Mortgages. Except as otherwise expressly agreed to by PDA in writing,
Sublessee shall not have the right to engage in any financing or other
transaction creating any mortgage upon the Subleased Premises. Any approval of
PDA shall be expressly subject to Condition 21 of the Master Lease and the
provisions of the Primary Sublease. Sublessee further agrees that in the event
of any authorized sublease or assignment of the Subleased Premises, it shall
provide to the Air Force, EPA and NHDES by certified mail a copy of the
agreement of sublease or assignment of the Subleased Premises within fourteen
(14) days after the effective date of such transaction. Sublessee may delete
the financial terms and any other proprietary information from any sublease or
assignment submitted to the above mentioned entities.

Hazardous Substances prior to the Occupancy Date, Sublessee's liability being
limited to matters relating to its own or its sublessees, assignees, contractors
and agents' activities.
Sublessor shall have the obligation to remediate any Hazardous Substance

22.8. Sublessor and Sublessee acknowledge that the Airport has been identified
as a National Priority List (NPL) Site under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended.
Sublessee acknowledges that Sublessor has provided it with a copy of the Xxxxx
Federal Facility Agreement ("FFA") entered into by EPA, and the Air Force on
April 24, 1991, and Modification No. 1 thereto, effective March 18, 1993, agrees
that it will comply with the terms of the FFA to the extent the same may be
applicable to the Subleased Premises and that should any conflict arise between
the terms of the FFA and the provisions of this Sublease, the terms of the FFA
will take precedence. The Sublessee further agrees that the Sublessor and PDA
assume no liability to the Sublessee or any Sublessee or assignee of Sublessee
should implementation of the FFA interfere with their use of the Subleased
Premises. The Sublessee and its Sublessee(s) and assignee(s) shall have no
claim on account of any such interference against the Sublessor, or PDA or any
officer, agent, employee or contractor thereof, other than a claim to Sublessor
for abatement of rent.
In the event of such interference which shall result in the inability of
the Sublessee to use the Premises, or any part thereof, the rent shall be
abated equitably during such period.
22.9. The Air Force, EPA, and NHDES and their officers, agents, employees,
contractors, and subcontractors have the right, upon reasonable notice to the
Sublessee and any Sublessee or assignee, to enter upon the Subleased Premises
for the purposes enumerated in this subparagraph and for such other purposes
consistent with the FFA:
(1) to conduct investigations and surveys, including, where necessary,
drilling, testpitting, borings and other activities related to the Xxxxx
Installation Restoration Program ("IRP") or the FFA;
(2) to inspect field activities of the Air Force and its contractors
and subcontractors in implementing the IRP or the FFA;
(3) to conduct any test or survey required by the EPA or NHDES
relating to the implementation of the FFA or environmental conditions at the
Subleased Premises or to verify any data submitted to the EPA or NHDES by the
Air Force relating to such conditions;
(4) to construct, operate, maintain or undertake any other response
or remedial action as required or necessary under the IRP or the FFA, including,
but not limited to monitoring xxxxx, pumping xxxxx and treatment facilities.
22.10. Sublessee and its sublessees and assignees agree at no cost to them to
comply with the provisions of any health or safety plan in effect under the IRP
or the FFA during the course of any of the above described response or remedial
actions. Any inspection, survey, investigation, or other response or remedial
action will, to the extent practicable, be coordinated with representatives
-36-
designated by the Sublessee and any sublessee or assignee. Sublessee and any
sublessee or assignee shall have no claim on account of such entries against the
State as defined in FFA or any officer, agent, employee, contractor, or
subcontractor thereof.
22.11. The Airport air emissions offsets and Air Force accumulation points for
hazardous and other wastes will not be made available to Sublessee. Sublessee
shall be responsible for obtaining from some other source(s) any air pollution
credits that may be required to offset emissions resulting from its activities
under the Sublease.
22.12. Any permit required under Hazardous Substance Laws for the management of
Hazardous Substances stored or generated by Sublessee or any sublessee or
assignee of Sublessee shall be obtained by Sublessee or its sublessees or
assignee and shall be limited to generation and transportation. Any violation
of this requirement shall be deemed a material breach of this Sublease.
Sublessee shall provide at its own expense such hazardous waste storage
facilities, complying with all laws and regulations, as it needs for management
of its hazardous waste.
22.13. Sublessee, and any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee whose operations
utilize Hazardous Substances, shall have a completed and approved plan for
responding to Hazardous Substances spills required by applicable law prior to
commencement of operations on the Subleased Premises. Such plan shall be
independent of, but not inconsistent with, any plan or other standard of PDA
applicable to the Airport and except for initial fire response and/or spill
containment, shall not rely on use of the Airport or Sublessor personnel or
equipment. Should the Sublessor provide any personnel or equipment, whether for
initial fire response and/or spill containment or otherwise, on request of the
Sublessee, or because the Sublessee was not, in the reasonable opinion of
Sublessor, conducting timely cleanup actions, the Sublessee agrees to reimburse
the Sublessor for its costs.
22.14. Sublessee, and any Sublessee or assignee of Sublessee, must maintain and
make available to PDA, the Air Force, EPA and NHDES all records, inspections
logs, and manifests that tract the generation, handling, storage, treatment and
disposal of Hazardous Waste, as well as all other records required by applicable
laws and requirements. PDA and the Air Force reserve the right to inspect the
Subleased Premises and Sublessee's, its sublessee's or assignee's records for
compliance with Federal, State, local laws, regulations, and other requirements
relating to the generation, handling, storage, treatment and disposal of
hazardous waste, as well as the discharge or release of hazardous substances.
Violations may be reported by PDA and the Air Force to appropriate regulatory
agencies, as required by applicable law. The Sublessee, its sublessees or
assignees shall be liable for the payment of any fines and penalties or costs
which may accrue to the United States of America or PDA as a result of the
actions of Sublessee, its sublessees or assignees, respectively.
-37-
22.15. Sublessor hereby represents and warrants to Sublessee that to the best
of its knowledge and belief the property is free from contamination by Hazardous
Materials or Hazardous Substances and complies with all environmental laws.
Sublessor represents and warrants to Sublessee that Sublessor has delivered to
Sublessee all environmental site assessments and similar reports known to
Sublessor affecting the Property. Sublessor agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold Sublessee harmless from all loss, cost, damage, claims or expenses incurred
by Sublessee as result of the inaccuracy of the above representations.
22.16. Sublessee shall be solely responsible for maintaining and operating the
emergency generator to be installed on the Premises and, accordingly, all risk
and responsibility for handling, storing and disposing of fuel for the
generator, and all other environmental risks associated with the generator,
shall be borne by the Sublessee.
22.17. Sublessee further agrees that in the event of any authorized sublease or
assignment of the Subleased Premises, it shall provide to the Air Force, EPA and
NHDES by certified mail a copy of the agreement of sublease or assignment of the
Subleased Premises within fourteen (14) days after the effective date of such
transaction. Sublessee may delete the financial terms and any other proprietary
information from any sublease or assignment submitted to the above-mentioned
entities.
22.18. Prior to the storage, mixing, or application of any pesticide, as that
term is defined under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act,
the Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees shall prepare a plan for storage,
mixing, and application of pesticides ("Pesticide Management Plan"). The
Pesticide Management Plan shall be sufficient to meet all applicable Federal,
State and local pesticide requirements. The Sublessee, its sublessees and
assignees, shall store, mix and apply all pesticides within the Subleased
Premises only in strict compliance with the Pesticide Management Plan. The
pesticides will only be applied by a licensed applicator.
22.19. The Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees must notify the Sublessor
and the Site Manager of its intent to possess, store, or use any licensed or
licensable source or byproduct materials, as those terms are defined under the
Atomic Energy Act and its implementing regulations; of Sublessee's, its
sublessees and assignees intent to possess, use, or store radium; and of
Sublessee's, its sublessees and assignees intent to possess or use any equipment
producing ionizing radiation and subject to specific licensing requirements or
other individual regulations, at least sixty (60) days prior to the entry of
such materials or equipment upon the Airport. Upon notification, the Sublessor
and the Site Manager may impose such requirements, including prohibition of
possession, use, or storage, as deemed necessary to adequately protect the
health and human environment. Thereafter, the Sublessee must notify the
Sublessor and the Site Manager of the presence of all licensed or licensable
source or other byproduct materials, of the presence of all byproduct materials,
of the presence of radium, and of the presence of all equipment producing
ionizing radiation and subject to specific licensing requirements or
-38-
other individual regulation; provided, however, that the Sublessee, it
sublessees and assignees need not make either of the above notifications to the
Sublessor and the Site Manager with respect to source and byproduct material
which is exempt from regulation under the Atomic Energy Act. The Sublessee shall
not, under any circumstances, use, own, possess or allow the presence of special
nuclear material on the Subleased Premises.
ARTICLE 23. HOLDING OVER
------------------------
23.1. Any holding over by Sublessee after the expiration of the term of this
Sublease shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to
the then fair rental value of the Subleased Premises but in no event less than
150% of the sum of (i) Base Rent and (ii) Operating Expenses and Real Estate
taxes in effect on the expiration date, provided that during the first 6 months
of such holdover the rate shall be at 120% of the then Base Rent and Operating
Expenses and taxes. Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Sublease as far as applicable. The Sublessor may,
but shall not be required to, and only on written notice to Sublessee after the
expiration of the term hereof, elect to treat such holding over as an extension
of the term of this Sublease for a period of up to the first 6 months, at 120%
of the then current rent rate, such extension to be on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Section.
ARTICLE 24. WAIVERS
-------------------
24.1. Failure of either party to complain of any act or omission on the part
of the other party, no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be
deemed to be a waiver by that party of any of its rights hereunder. No waiver
by either party at any time, express or implied, or any breach of any provision
of this Sublease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision of
this Sublease or a consent of any subsequent breach of the same or any other
provision. If any action by Sublessee shall require Sublessor's consent or
approval, Sublessor's consent to or approval of such action on any one occasion
shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of said action on any subsequent
occasion or a consent to or approval of any other action on the same or any
subsequent occasion. No payment by Sublessee or acceptance by Sublessor of a
lesser amount than shall be due from Sublessee to Sublessor shall be deemed to
be anything but payment on account, and the acceptance by Sublessor of a check
for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon, or upon letter
accompanying said check that said lesser amount is payment in full, shall not be
deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Sublessor may accept said check without
prejudice to recover the balance due or pursue any other remedy. Any and all
rights and remedies which either party may have under this Sublease or by
operation of law, either at law or in equity, upon any breach, shall be
distinct, separate and cumulative, and shall not be deemed inconsistent with
each other; and no one of them, whether exercised by that party or not, shall be
deemed to be in exclusion of any other; and any two or more of all such rights
and remedies may be exercised at the same time.
-39-
ARTICLE 25. QUIET ENJOYMENT
---------------------------
25.1. Sublessor agrees that upon Sublessee's paying the rent and performing and
observing the agreements, conditions and other provisions on its part to be
performed and observed, Sublessee shall and may peaceably and quietly have,
hold, and enjoy the Subleased Premises during the term of this Sublease without
any manner of hindrance or molestation from Sublessor or anyone claiming under
Sublessor, subject, however, to the terms of this Sublease and any instruments
having a prior lien.

ARTICLE 29. DISPUTES AND LITIGATION
-----------------------------------
29.1. Except as provided below: In the event of a dispute between the parties,
it shall be a condition precedent to the initiation of any formal litigation in
a court of competent jurisdiction that the parties shall meet face to face in a
good faith effort to resolve the dispute directly between them. In the event
that they are unsuccessful, each party agrees to submit the dispute to
alternative dispute resolution, initially by mediation, and the parties shall
equally share the expense of such mediation.
In the event that mediation is unsuccessful, the parties shall then submit
the dispute to arbitration (binding if the parties agree) in accordance with the
Rules of the American Arbitration Association. In the event that arbitration
fails, and provided that the parties have participated in the alternative
dispute resolution provisions hereof in good faith, the aggrieved party may then
commence litigation.
29.2. The foregoing alternative dispute resolution provisions shall not apply
in the event that either party reasonably requires immediate ex parte and/or
injunctive relief from a Court of competent jurisdiction.
ARTICLE 30. MISCELLANEOUS
-------------------------
30.1. Any actions or proceedings with respect to any matters arising under or
growing out of this Sublease shall be instituted and prosecuted only in the
courts located in the State of New Hampshire. Nothing contained in this Article
or any other provision of this Sublease shall be deemed to constitute a waiver
of the sovereign immunity of the State of New Hampshire, which immunity is
hereby reserved to PDA and to the State of New Hampshire.
30.2. Sublessee shall faithfully observe and comply with such rules and
regulations as the PDA may adopt for the operation of the Airport and such rules
and regulations as Sublessor may adopt for the operation of the Subleased
Premises, which rules and regulations are reasonable and nondiscriminatory as
well as all modifications thereof and additions thereto. PDA shall not be
responsible to Sublessee for the violation or nonperformance by any other
sublessee of the PDA of such Airport rules and regulations.
30.3. Sublessee agrees to conform to such additional provisions required of
tenants of office buildings at Xxxxx as, from time to time, by the FAA ("FAA
Requirements") or its successor with respect to the operation of the Airport, or
a portion thereof. The current FAA Requirements are attached hereto as
Exhibit 9 and incorporated herein by reference.
---------
-41-
30.4. This Sublease is subject and subordinate to any agreements heretofore or
hereafter made between PDA and the United States or the Air Force, the execution
of which is required to enable or permit transfer of rights or property to PDA
for airport purposes or expenditure of federal grant funds for airport
improvement, maintenance or development, including, without limitation, the
Application and Acceptance, Master Lease and FFA. Sublessee shall abide by
requirements of any agreement between PDA and the United States or the Air Force
applicable to the Subleased Premises or Sublessee's activities at the Airport
and shall consent to amendments and modifications of this Sublease if required
by such agreements or as a condition of Sublessor's entry into such agreements.
This Sublease is further subject and subordinate to the Primary Sublease
between PDA and Sublessor and Sublessee shall be subject to the provisions of
the Primary Sublease applicable to Sublessee's use of the Subleased Premises or
Sublessee's actions at the Airport.
30.5. Sublessee acknowledges that PDA, in its sole discretion, shall determine
and may from time to time change the routes of surface ingress and egress
connecting the Subleased Premises. PDA also reserves the right to further
develop the Airport, or such portion of the Airport as is owned or controlled by
PDA, as it sees fit, regardless of the desires or views of Sublessee and without
interference or hindrance. Sublessor has delivered to Sublessee a copy of the
Primary Sublease, which Sublessor represents to be complete and in effect.
Sublessor agrees that it will not enter into any amendment of the Primary
Sublease which would adversely affect the rights of the Sublessee hereunder nor
shall Sublessor agree to or permit termination of the Primary Sublease.
30.6. The Sublessee herein covenants by and for itself, its heirs, executors,
administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through it, that
this Sublease is made and accepted upon and subject to the following conditions:
That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any person
or group of persons, on account of race, color, creed, national origin, or
ancestry, in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy, tenure, or
enjoyment of the Premises herein leased nor shall the Sublessee, or any person
claiming under or through it, establish or permit any such practice or practices
of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location,
number, use, or occupancy, of tenants, lessees, sublessees, subtenants, or
vendees in the Subleased Premises herein leased.
30.7. All obligations of Sublessee to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Sublessor, PDA and the Air Force and to make any monetary payment to Sublessor,
PDA and the Air Force shall survive the termination or expiration of this
Sublease.
30.8. Sublessor's Liability. (a) With respect to any services or utilities to
be furnished by Sublessor to Sublessee, Sublessor shall in no event be liable
for failure to furnish the same when prevented from doing so by force, major
strike,
-42-
lockout, breakdown, accident, order or regulation of or by any governmental
authority, or failure of supply, or inability by the exercise of reasonable
diligence to obtain supplies, parts or employees necessary to furnish such
services, or because of war or other emergency, or for any cause beyond
Sublessor's reasonable control, or for any cause due to any act or neglect of
Sublessee or Sublessee's servants, agents, employees, licensees or any person
claiming by, through or under Sublessee; nor shall any such failure give rise to
any claim in Sublessee's favor that Sublessee has been evicted, either
constructively or actually, partially or wholly, provided however, that if the
failure of utilities shall result in the inability of the Sublessee to use the
Premises, the rent shall be abated during such period.
(b) In no event shall either party ever be liable to the other party for
any loss of business or any other indirect or consequential damages suffered by
such party from whatever cause.
(c) With respect to any repairs or restoration which are required or
permitted to be made by Sublessor, the same may be made during normal business
hours and Sublessor shall have no liability for damages to Sublessee for
inconvenience, annoyance or interruption of business arising therefrom.
(d) An "Abatement Event" shall be defined as an event or circumstance
(other than those addressed in Articles 16 and 17 or by reason of some other
event or circumstance beyond the control of the Sublessor, that prevents
Sublessee from using the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of any
failure to provide services or access to the Premises. Sublessee shall give
Sublessor notice ("Abatement Notice") of any such Abatement Event, and if such
Abatement Event continues beyond the "Eligibility Period" as that term is
defined below), then the Base Rent and Sublessee's other monetary obligations to
Sublessor shall be abated entirely or reduced, as the case may be, after
expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Sublessee continues to
be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof,
in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that
Sublessee is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable
area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Sublessee is
prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises for a period
of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the
Premises is not sufficient to allow Sublessee to effectively conduct its
business therein, and if Sublessee does not conduct its business from such
remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period
during which Sublessee is so prevented from effectively conducting its business
therein, Base Rent and Sublessee's other monetary obligations to Sublessor shall
be abated entirely for such time as Sublessee continues to be so prevented from
using, and does not use, the Premises. The term "Eligibility period" shall mean
a period of three (3) consecutive days after Sublessor's receipt of any
Abatement Notice(s). In addition, if an Abatement Event continues for thirty
(30) consecutive days after any Abatement Notice, Sublessee may terminate this
sublease by written notice
-43-
to Sublessor at any time prior to the date such Abatement Event is cured by
Sublessor.
30.9. Additional Charges. If Sublessee shall fail to pay when due any sums
under this Sublease designated or payable as an additional charge, Sublessor
shall have the same rights and remedies as Sublessor has hereunder for failure
to pay Base Rent.
30.10. Brokerage. The parties agree that the Xxxx Company has acted as sole
broker in this lease transaction. The Sublessor shall be responsible for all
brokerage fees to The Xxxx Company.
30.11. Management. The Sublessor shall charge commercially reasonable
management fees which shall be no more than $.40 per square foot per annum for
the first year of the Lease and which shall be included in Operating Expenses.
Thereafter, such management fees shall be charged at commercially reasonable
rates comparable to other similar single tenant buildings in the Greater
Portsmouth, New Hampshire area..
30.12. Primary Sublease, Master Lease, Application, Acceptance and FFA.
Sublessor shall perform the Base Building Work in accordance with all provisions
of the Primary Sublease, Master Lease, Application, Acceptance and FFA
(collectively, the "Documents") and all other applicable laws, and requirements,
and shall during the term operate the premises leased under the Primary Sublease
in accordance with the Documents and all other applicable laws, codes and
requirements. Sublessor shall deliver to Sublessee copies of all correspondence
sent or received by Sublessor to or from any party to any of the Documents
alleging a default by any party thereto or otherwise setting forth matters which
might reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the leasehold interest
created by this Sublease or on Sublessee's use and enjoyment of the Subleased
Premises.
30.13. Notice of Lease. The parties shall execute and record a Notice of Lease
in the form required under New Hampshire law.
30.14. Guarantee. Sublessee shall provide to Sublessor a Guaranty from
Cabletron Systems, Inc. in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 13. EXECUTION

Xxxxxx, XX 00000
Re: 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx
----------------------------------------------
Dear Xx. Xxxxxxx:
Bank of New Hampshire N.A. ("Lender") is making a loan to 000 Xxxxxxxxx
Xxxxx LLC (the "Company") in the original principal amount of Six Million
Dollars ($6,000,000.00) (the "Loan"), the proceeds of which will be used for the
construction of a building on the property located at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx (the "Property"). The Property is subject to a
certain Sublease by and between the Company and Aprisma Management Technologies,
Inc. ("Sublessee") dated December 4, 2000 ("Sublease"), which Sublease is
guaranteed by Cabletron Systems, Inc. ("Cabletron"). Sublessee is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Cabletron.
The Loan is to be evidenced by a certain Note made by the Company in favor
of Lender (the "Note") and will be secured by, among other things, a certain
Leasehold Mortgage and Security Agreement ("Mortgage") from the Company to
Lender dated as of the date of the Loan.
As a condition to the Loan, Lender requires that Sublessee deposit with
Lender the sum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the "Deposit") to be held
in an interest-bearing reserve to be established by Lender (the "Tenant
Improvement Reserve"). This agreement is an inducement for the Company to
obtain the Loan for the construction of the building on the Property to be
occupied by Sublessee, and the Company is relying upon this agreement in
connection with the Loan.
This letter will confirm our understanding and agreement that, in
connection with the Property, Sublessee has agreed with the Company as follows:
1. To secure Sublessee's obligation to complete certain tenant improvements
as required in the Sublease ("Tenant Improvements"), and to establish and
maintain a fund for reimbursement to Lender for amounts expended in completing
the Tenant Improvements in the event the Tenant Improvements are not completed
by Sublessee in accordance with the Sublease, as required under the Sublease,
Sublessee agrees to deposit with Lender, the Deposit, to be held in the Tenant
Improvement Reserve and disbursed in accordance with a pledge agreement to be
executed by and between Lender and Sublessee. Sublessee's obligation to
establish and maintain such Deposit shall be subject to Sublessee's and Lender's
negotiation and execution of a mutually acceptable pledge agreement.
2. The Deposit shall be held in an interest bearing restricted reserve
account with Lender, or other account acceptable to Sublessee and Lender.
Earnings or interest on the Tenant improvement Reserve shall not become part of
such Tenant Improvement Reserve and shall not be disbursed to Lender. Such
interest or earnings shall accrue to the benefit of Sublessee and shall be paid
to Sublessee as agreed to be Lender in the pledge agreement. While the Deposit
(less any amounts as may be disbursed or other paid out pursuant to the pledge
agreement) is being held by the Lender, in the event the earnings and/or
interest paid by Lender on the Tenant Improvement Reserve are less than the
equivalent of six and one-half percent (6.5%) per annum on a simple interest
basis and based on a 365 day year, the Company agrees to pay Sublessee the
difference between the actual amount of earnings and interest paid by Lender on
the Deposit and the equivalent interest or earnings that the Deposit (less any
amounts as may be disbursed or other paid out pursuant to the pledge agreement)
would have received at an effective interest rate of six and one-half percent
(6.5%) per annum on a simple interest basis and paid on a 365 day year. Such
amounts, if any, shall be paid by the company to Sublessee on a monthly basis.
3. In the event of a default by the Company under the Loan which results in
a foreclosure of the Property by the Lender, the provided that; (i) such default
by the company was not materially and substantially caused by a default of
Sublessee under the Sublease or any other document executed by Sublessee or
Cabletron Systems, Inc. in connection with the Property, or (ii) the Sublessee
(or its successor and assign) has never occupied the building on the Property
pursuant to the Sublease, the Company agrees to pay Sublessee the foreclosure
proceeds actually paid by Lender to the Company, if any, up to a maximum amount
equal to the amount in which the Deposit was used to make improvements to the
Property.
4. This Agreement shall be governed and constructed under the laws of the
State of New Hampshire and shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties, their respective successors and assigns.
Please sign below to indicate Sublessee's acceptable to the terms of this
agreement and its intention to be bound hereby.

PLEDGE OF TENANT IMPROVEMENT RESERVE ACCOUNT
--------------------------------------------
This Pledge Agreement is made by Aprisma Management Technologies, Inc.,
with an address at 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000 ("Pledgor") to Bank
of New Hampshire, N.A. a national banking association with an address at 0
Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, XX ("Bank").
Whereas 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, LLC ("Borrower") is entering into an agreement
with Bank to borrow up to Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000) under the terms of a
certain Construction Loan Agreement (the "Loan") for the construction of an
approximately 100,000 square foot building at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx,
XX (the "Project"); and
Whereas Pledgor has entered into a Sublease with Borrower dated December 4,
2000 ("Lease") for the lease of the Project with Lease requires Pledgor to
construct certain tenant improvements in accordance with the terms of Article 2
and Exhibit 4 of the Lease ("Tenant Improvements"), (Pledgors obligation for
construction of the Tenant Improvements hereinafter referred to as the
"Liabilities"); and
Whereas a condition of the Loan to Borrower, Bank is requiring that Pledgor
establish an account, to be pledged herein to Bank, to guarantee the
Liabilities.
NOW, THEREFORE, Bank and Pledgor, for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, hereby agree as
follows:
1. Assignment. Pledgor hereby, in order to partially secure the performance
of the Liabilities, grants a security interest in all of Pledgor's right, title
and interest to the Tenant Improvement Reserve Account (exclusive of interest
earned thereon) as established by Pledgor with Bank and being Account
#9720170763 to be funded by Pledgor in the sum of Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000), (the "Collateral"), established with Bank as the sole signatory of
the account.
2. Proceeds of the Collateral. The account shall be an interest bearing
account, at the rate of interest customarily paid to depositors on like
accounts. The interest shall accrue to the benefit of the Pledgor, and shall be
disbursed to Pledgor as provided herein.
3. Disbursements to Pledgor. On request by Pledgor, but no more frequently
than once a month, within five days of receipt by Lender of a certificate from
Pledgor's construction inspector or engineer certifying to Bank that the
requested amount has been paid by Pledgor or is to be used by Pledgor for
payment for work completed on, or materials incorporated into, the Tenant
Improvements, and upon reasonable confirmation by Bank of same, the Bank shall
disburse such requested amount (the "Disbursement") plus all interest accrued on
the account and remaining in the account to the date of the Disbursement to
Pledgor. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, interest
accruing in the account shall be paid to Pledgor at the request of Pledgor made
no more frequently than once per month.
4. Final Disbursement. It is the intent of the parties hereto, that a
minimum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) be spent toward the Tenant
Improvements, but there is no requirement that the Tenant Improvements be
complete prior to final disbursement of the funds
and closing of the account, provided all of such funds have been paid toward the
Tenant Improvements.
5. Failure to Build. The Collateral shall be held by Bank and disbursed as
provided hereunder until such time as Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) has been
paid by Pledgor toward the Tenant Improvements, provided, however, that in the
event that the Pledgor terminates the Lease pursuant to Section 2.3 thereof by
reason of the Borrower's failure to complete the "Base Building Work" as defined
in the Lease within the timeframe set forth therein, then, upon written notice
from Pledgor, the full amount of the Tenant Improvement Reserve, plus interest
accrued thereon, shall be delivered to Pledgor and this Pledge Agreement shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect.
6. Default. In the event the Tenant Improvements have not been constructed
by Pledgor as required pursuant to Article 2 and Exhibit 4 of the Lease, and
Pledgor is in default of the payment of rent under the Lease, Bank may take
possession of the Collateral or any part thereof and use such Collateral for
construction of Tenant fit-up of the Premises, provided, however, that
notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, in the event that the
rental obligations owed by Pledgor under the Lease are paid directly to Bank
without set-off or counterclaim against Borrower, then in that case so long as
such rent is being paid, Bank shall not be entitled to possession of the
Collateral and use of the funds in the pledged account. In the event of the use
of the Collateral by the Bank for Tenant fit-up of the Premises, nothing herein
shall require Bank to do specific Tenant Improvements as per the terms of the
Lease, so long as Bank uses the Collateral in its reasonable discretion for fit-
up of the Project after completion of Basic Building Work (as defined in the
Lease) and for no other purpose.
7. Miscellaneous
7.1 This Pledge may only be modified, in whole or in part, by consent
of all parties in a written instrument executed with all of the formalities
hereof.
7.2 The rights and benefits of Bank and Pledgor hereunder shall insure
to the benefit of their successors and assigns including, without
limitation, any party to which Bank grants a participation interest herein,
and shall be binding upon the heirs, successors and assigns of Pledgor and
Bank.
7.3 This Agreement is being delivered to and accepted by Bank in the
State of New Hampshire and the provisions of this Agreement shall be
construed, administered and enforced according to the internal laws of the
State of New Hampshire. Pledgor agrees that any action hereunder or related
hereto may be maintained in a court of competent jurisdiction located
within the State, and consents to the jurisdiction of any such court for
all purposes connected herewith.
7.4 Except as provided in paragraph 5 above, the rights of the Bank
hereunder shall be irrevocable until construction of the Tenant
Improvements by Pledgor or possession of the Collateral by Bank. Upon
request, Pledgor agrees to execute and record financing statements
evidencing this pledge.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this document to be executed
and delivered as of the day and year first above-written.

WITNESSETH:
-----------
WHEREAS, Tenant has entered into a Sublease dated December 4, 2000, notice
of which is recorded at Book 3532 Page 918 of the Rockingham County Registry of
Deeds (said lease, as heretofore or hereafter amended, modified or supplemented,
is hereinafter called the "Lease"), between Landlord, as landlord, and Tenant,
as tenant, with respect to certain space (the "Demised Premises") in the City of
Portsmouth, State of New Hampshire located on certain land more particularly
described on Exhibit A attached hereto (said land and improvements, the
"Premises"); and,
WHEREAS, Lender is the holder of a certain Note, dated March 19, 2001, from
Landlord in the original principal amount of Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000.00)
(the "Note"), which Note is secured by: (i) a certain Leasehold Mortgage and
Security Agreement dated of even date therewith, from Landlord to Lender, which
encumbers the Premises, and (ii) an Assignment of Leases and Rents dated of even
date therewith, which encumbers Landlord's interest in the Lease. (Such
Leasehold Mortgage and Security Agreement and Assignment of Leases and Rents are
collectively referred to hereinafter as the "Mortgage"); and,
WHEREAS, Lender and Tenant desire to enter into this Agreement upon the
terms, covenants and conditions contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements of the
parties contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. The Lease is and shall be at all times and in all respects subordinate
and junior to the lien of the Mortgage, and to all advances made and/or
hereafter to be secured by the Mortgage and to all renewals, modifications,
consolidations, substitutions, additions and extensions of the Mortgage, as
fully and with the same effect as if the Mortgage had been duly executed,
acknowledged and recorded, and the indebtedness secured thereby had been duly
disbursed prior to the execution of the Lease or possession of the Premises by
Tenant, or its predecessors in interest.
2. As of the date Lender mails a notice of foreclosure, or otherwise
commences a foreclosure action, or at any time thereafter, or exercises any
other right of Lender under the Mortgage, (a) Tenant shall not be named as a
party defendant in any action or proceeding to enforce the Mortgage, unless such
joinder shall be required under applicable law, nor shall the
Lease be terminated nor Tenant's possession, or any other rights of Tenant
thereunder be disturbed in any such action or proceeding, except in accordance
with the terms of the Lease, and (b) subject to the provisions of Section 4 of
this Agreement, Lender will recognize the Lease and Tenant's rights thereunder.
3. Upon any foreclosure of the Mortgage or other acquisition of the
Premises, Tenant shall attorn to Lender or any other party acquiring the
Premises or so succeeding to Landlord's rights (collectively, the "Successor
Landlord") and shall recognize the Successor Landlord as its landlord under the
Lease. Said attornment shall be effective and self-operative without the
execution on the part of any party of any further instrument. Without limiting
the foregoing, Tenant waives the provisions of, and any rights under, any
statute or rule of law, nor or hereafter in effect, which might otherwise give,
or purport to give, any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely
affect the Lease and the obligations of Tenant thereunder in the event of said
foreclosure or other acquisition.
4. Upon said attornment, the Lease shall continue as a direct lease between
the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all terms, covenants and conditions
thereof as are then applicable except that the Successor Landlord shall not be
(a) liable for any damages then accrued as the result of any previous act or
omission of Landlord or any prior landlord under the Lease, (b) subject to any
offsets or defenses that Tenant then has against Landlord or any prior landlord,
(c) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease hereafter executed, or
the obligations of the parties thereto, unless said amendment or modification
shall have been consented to by the successor Landlord or Lender, or (d) bound
by any prepayment of more than one (1) month's rent or other charges under the
Lease, unless such payment shall have been made in accordance with the terms of
the Lease or shall have been expressly approved in writing by Lender, provided,
however, that nothing herein contained shall relieve the Successor Landlord from
any default under the Lease which continues after Successor Landlord succeeds to
Landlord's right.
5. Tenant, from and after the date hereof, shall sent to Lender a copy of
any notice of default sent under the Lease to Landlord at the same time such
notice is sent to Landlord under the Lease. Such notices shall be delivered to
Lender at the following address:
Bank of New Hampshire
0 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx
Xxxxxxx, XX 00000
Attention: Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, Vice President
6. Tenant acknowledges notices that Landlord's interest under the Lease and
the rent and all other sums due thereunder have been assigned to Lender as part
of the security for repayment of the Note secured by the Mortgage. In the event
that Lender notifies Tenant of a default under the Mortgage and demands that
Tenant pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease to Lender, Tenant
agrees that it shall pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease to
Lender. Landlord joins in the execution hereof for the purpose of consenting to
the provisions of this Section.
7. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated
unless in writing and duly executed by the party against whom the same is sought
to be asserted and constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof.
8. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns.

(12) months prior to the end of the Base Tenn or any applicable Extension Term

cure, the options to extend the term hereby granted may not be exercised at any
time during which Sublessee is in default under any of the terms of this
Sublease, and, at the election of Sublessor, shall not be effective if any
default occurs after the exercise of such option and before the expiration of
the applicable term, it being the intent of the Parties that the options granted
hereby may not be exercised or become effective at a time when a default by
Sublessee exists under this Sublease.

4.4 to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
applicable to the Boston area (all items 1982 - 1984 = 100) published by the
United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (the "Index").
4.4. On the first day following the expiration of the fifth (5th) year of the
term of this Sublease and on the first day of each year thereafter (individually
an "Adjustment Date" and collectively the "Adjustment Dates"), Ground Rent shall
be subject to adjustment for the remainder of the term of this Sublease as
follows:
(1) For the first annual adjustment (commencing on the first day
following the expiration of the fifth (5th) year of the term of this
Sublease), the basis for computing such adjustment shall be the Index most
recently published prior to the beginning of the first (1st) year of the
term ("Beginning Index"). If the Index most recently published prior to the
first Adjustment Date ("Extension Index") has increased over the Beginning
Index, the Ground Rent for the one (1) year period commencing as of such
first Adjustment Date, subject to the caps set forth in Section 4.1 above,
shall be the result obtained by multiplying the annual Ground Rent in
effect on the day of the Adjustment Date (i.e. the annual rental for year
one) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Extension Index and the
denominator of which is the Beginning Index.
(2) For all subsequent adjustments, the rent shall be adjusted in the
same manner as that for the first adjustment; provided, however, that the
rental base shall be the rental in effect just prior to the then applicable
Adjustment Date, the Extension Index for the preceding period shall be the
Beginning Index and the Extension Index shall be the index most recently
published prior to the then applicable Adjustment Date. On each Adjustment
Date, the Parties shall execute an acknowledgment reflecting the new rent.
Failure to execute such an acknowledgment shall not affect either the
validity of this Sublease or the effective date of any adjustment to the
rent hereunder.
(3) If for any Adjustment Date the Extension Index most recently
published following the Adjustment Date has not increased over, or has
decreased from, the Beginning Index for that. period, no escalation in rent
shall be required on that Adjustment Date, and the rent shall remain at its
then current rate until the next Adjustment Date.
If the Index is changed in any manner, including without limitation, a
change in the base year, the Index shall be converted in accordance with the
conversion factor published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of
Labor Statistics. If the Index is discontinued or revised during the term of
this Sublease, such other government index or computation with which it is
replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would
be obtained if the Index had not been
-13-
discontinued or revised. If the Parties shall be unable to agree upon a
successor index, the Parties shall refer the choice of a successor index to
arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration
Association.
4.5. [RESERVED]
4.6. The Ground Rent payable hereunder shall be net to Sublessor, free and
clear of any and all Impositions (as defined in Section 5.1), or expenses of any
nature whatsoever in connection with the Premises. The Parties agree that,
except as expressly provided herein, all costs, expenses and charges of every
kind and nature relating to the Subleased Premises which may be attributed to,
or become due during the initial or any renewal term of this Sublease, shall
constitute additional rent to be paid by, Sublessee and, upon failure of
Sublessee to pay any such costs, expenses or charges, Sublessor shall have the
same rights and remedies as otherwise provided in this Sublease for the failure
of Sublessee to pay rent. It is the intention of the Parties that Sublessee
shall in no event be entitled to any abatement or reduction in rent payable
hereunder, except as expressly provided herein. Any present or future law to the
contrary shall not alter the agreement of the Parties.

defined in NH RSA 12-G:2. Sublessee shall pay to the City of Portsmouth a
payment in lieu of taxes in accordance with the provisions of NH RSA 12-G:11,11

Imposition at the time and in the manner in this Article, unless Sublessee shall
have obtained a stay of such proceedings. Sublessor shall not be required to
join in any such proceedings unless it shall be necessary for it to do so in

connection with the determination, equalization, reduction or payment of any and
every Imposition which is to be borne or paid or which may become payable by
Sublessee under the provisions of this Article, and Sublessor shall not be or

with the consent of Sublessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld

reasonably satisfactory to Sublessor of such payment, shall be delivered by
Sublessee to Sublessor.
7.3. All policies of insurance shall provide for loss thereunder to be adjusted
and payable to Sublessor or Sublessee in accordance with the terms of this
Sublease.

sustained, (ii) an agreement by the insurer that such policy shall not be

or prevent the same as the case may be.
7.7. Any insurance provided for in this Sublease may be effected by a policy or
policies of blanket insurance or may be continued in such form until otherwise
required by Sublessor; provided, however, that the amount of the total insurance

the equivalent of separate policies in the amounts herein required, and provided
further that in all other respects, any such policy or policies shall comply
with the other provisions of this Sublease. In any such case it shall not be
necessary to deliver the original of any such blanket policy to Sublessor, but

duplicate of such policy in form and content acceptable to Sublessor.

granted on an exclusive basis and that Sublessor may enter into subleases or
other agreements with other tenants or users at areas of the Airport other than

the use and occupation of the Subleased Premises and the conduct of such
business thereon, Sublessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly comply
with all present and future laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and
requirements of all federal, state and municipal governments, courts,
departments, commissions and boards, any national, state or local Board of Fire

nature referred to in this Article. If compliance with any such law, ordinance,
order, rule, regulation or requirement may be delayed on the basis of an order
from a court of competent jurisdiction pending the prosecution of any such
proceeding without the incurrence of any lien, charge or liability of any kind
against the Subleased Premises or Sublessee's interest therein and without
subjecting Sublessor to any liability, civil or criminal, for failure so to
comply therewith, Sublessee may delay compliance therewith consistent with such
court order. Even if such lien, charge or civil liability would be incurred by
reason of any such delay, Sublessee may, with the prior written consent of
Sublessor, contest as aforesaid and delay as aforesaid, provided that such
contest or delay does not subject Sublessor to criminal liability, damages or
expense and provided that Sublessee: (i) furnishes to Sublessor security,
reasonably satisfactory to Sublessor, against any loss or injury by reason of
such contest or delay; and (ii) prosecutes the contest with due diligence.

this Section unless the provisions of any applicable laws, rules or regulations
at the time in effect shall require that such proceedings be brought by and/or
in the name of Sublessor and Sublessor determines that such action is in its
best interests, in which event Sublessor shall join in the proceedings, or
permit the same to be brought in its name, if Sublessee shall pay all expenses
in connection therewith.

Sublessee shall not permit to remain, and shall promptly discharge, at its cost
and expense, all liens, encumbrances and charges upon the Subleased Premises or
any part thereof, including the Facility and improvements constructed under
Article 2A of this Sublease; provided, that the existence of any mechanics',
laborers', materialmen's, suppliers' or vendors' liens or rights thereto shall
not constitute a violation of this Article if payment is not yet due under the

due diligence the validity or amount of any lien or claimed lien, if Sublessee
shall give to Sublessor such security as Sublessor may reasonably require to

charges and shall have the lien released or judgment satisfied at Sublessee's
own expense, and if Sublessee shall fail to do so, Sublessor may at its option
pay any such final judgment and clear the Subleased Premises therefrom. If

such lien or claimed lien, or to give Sublessor security as hereinabove
provided, Sublessor may, but shall not be required to, contest the validity or
amount of any such lien or claimed lien or settle or compromise the same without
inquiring into the validity of the claim or the reasonableness of the amount
thereof.

Facility and improvements constructed under Article 2A of this Sublease, or

(ii) making any necessary repairs and performing any other work that may be
necessary by reason of Sublessee's failure to comply with the terms of this
Sublease within ten (10) days after written notice from Sublessor, unless an
emergency situation (as determined in Sublessor's sole discretion) requires
earlier action by Sublessor. Nothing herein shall imply any duty upon the part
of Sublessor to do any such work and performance thereof by Sublessor shall not
constitute a waiver of Sublessee's default in failing to perform the same.
Sublessor may during the progress of such work keep and store in or on the
Subleased Premises all necessary materials, tools, supplies and equipment.
Sublessor shall not be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance, loss of
business or other damage of Sublessee by reason of making such repairs or the

Sublease.
12.2. Sublessee acknowledges that from time to time Sublessor may undertake
construction, repair or other activities related to the operation, maintenance

Sublessee. Sublessee agrees to accommodate Sublessor in such matters, even
though Sublessee's own activities may be inconvenienced or partially impaired,
and Sublessee agrees that no liability shall attach to Sublessor, its members,
employees or agents by reason of such inconvenience or impairment, unless such
activities of Sublessor hereunder are performed in a negligent manner.

agents, employees and contractors to enter upon the Subleased Premises for any
purposes not inconsistent with Sublessee's quiet use and enjoyment, including

other agency having a right of entry under the Federal Facilities Agreement
(FFA) as defined in Section 25.8) determines that immediate entry is required
for safety, environmental, operations or security purposes it may effect such
entry without prior notice. The Sublessee shall have no claim against Sublessor
or against the United States or any officer, agent, employee or contractor
thereof on account of any such entries.

reserved right shall provide reasonable prior notice and the opportunity to
confer with Sublessee and shall exercise reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize
interference with use of the Subleased Premises.
Sublessor, at its sole discretion, shall have the right from time to time,
to alter the method and source of supply of the above enumerated utilities to
the Subleased Premises so long as such alteration does not result in an
interruption of service during such change and so long as such alteration does
not result in an increase in the cost of any such utilities. Sublessee agrees to
execute and deliver to Sublessor such documentation as may be required to effect
such alteration. Sublessee agrees to pay all charges for the above enumerated
utilities supplied by Sublessor, public utility or public authority, or any
other person, firm or corporation.

utilities to the Subleased Premises. If Sublessor shall elect to supply any of
such utilities to the Subleased Premises, Sublessee will purchase its
requirements for such services tendered by Sublessor, and Sublessee will pay
Sublessor, within ten (10) days after mailing by Sublessor to Sublessee of
statements therefor, at the applicable rates determined by Sublessor from time
to time which Sublessor agrees shall not be in excess of the public utility
rates or competitive market rates if available for the same service if
applicable to other aviation tenants at the Airport. If Sublessor so elects to
supply any of such utilities, Sublessee shall execute and
-30-
deliver to Sublessor, within ten (10) days after request therefor, any
documentation reasonably required by Sublessor to effect such change in the
method of furnishing of such utilities.

other equipment and appliances required to supply any such service upon the
Subleased Premises, and Sublessee shall be solely responsible for and promptly
pay, as and when the same become due and payable, all charges for water, sewer,
electricity, gas, telephone and any other utility used or consumed in the

provisions of Article 15 of this Sublease applicable to construction work..

responsible for obtaining at its sole cost and expense any sewage or stormwater
discharge permits as may be required for its operations under this Sublease (or

Sublessee) shall be required to comply with any and all land use control
regulations promulgated by Sublessor and any and all federal, state and local
requirements and standards concerning stormwater discharges and discharges to
sewage treatment works, including, without limitation, any pre-treatment
requirements.
14.5. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 14 to the contrary, Sublessee
acknowledges and agrees that the Sublessee and the City of Portsmouth
contemplate the relocation, upgrade and improvement of water and sewer lines on
International Drive and Corporate Drive (the "Wastewater/Water Improvements") as
more specifically set forth in Exhibit D-1. In connection with said relocation,
upgrade and improvement, Sublessee agrees to pay its proportional share of the
Wastewater/Water Improvements, which proportional share shall be based upon the
13.2800 acres, as set forth in Exhibit D-1 of the Subleased Premises, to include
any necessary roadway resurfacing. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Sublease with respect to the calculation of useable acreage of the Subleased
Premises, Sublessee's proportional share of the Wastewater/Water Improvements is
as set forth in Exhibit D-1. As a condition precedent to the issuance by the
City of Portsmouth of a Building Permit and the commencement of construction of
the Facility Sublessee shall enter into a written agreement with the City of
Portsmouth, with such security as the City of Portsmouth may reasonably require
to insure that said payment obligation is met. Sublessee agrees that any payment
obligation with respect to the Wastewater/Water Improvements shall be considered
an Imposition under Article 5 of this Sublease.

from Sublessee, the Sublessor shall out of the fund held by the Sublessor

expense calculated over their useful life on a straight line basis, and
Sublessor will receive any balance.

18.4. In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Subleased Premises by
Sublessee for fourteen (14) days or in the event that Sublessor shall elect to
reenter as provided in Section 18.3 or shall take possession of the Subleased
Premises pursuant to any provision of New Hampshire law or pursuant to any
notice provided by law, then if Sublessor does not elect to terminate this
Sublease as provided in Section 18.2, Sublessor may from time to time, without
terminating this Sublease, either recover all
-41-
rental as it becomes due or relet the Subleased Premises or any part thereof for
such terms and conditions as Sublessor in its sole discretion may deem
advisable, including the right to make alterations and repairs to the Subleased
Premises. In the event that Sublessor shall elect to relet, then rentals
received by Sublessor from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the
payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Sublessee to
Sublessor; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the
payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Subleased Premises;
fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if
any, shall be held by Sublessor and applied in payment of future rent as the
same may become due and payable hereunder. Should the amount of rental received
from such reletting during any month which is applied to the payment of rent be
less than that required to be paid during that month by Sublessee under this
Sublease, then Sublessee shall pay such deficiency to Sublessor immediately upon
demand by Sublessor. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.
Sublessee shall also pay to Sublessor, as soon as ascertained, any costs and
expenses incurred by Sublessor in such reletting or in making such alterations
and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
18.5. The various rights and remedies reserved to Sublessor, including those
not specifically described under this Sublease, shall be cumulative, and, except
as otherwise provided by New Hampshire statutory law in force and effect at the
time of the execution of this Sublease, Sublessor may pursue any or all of such
rights and remedies, whether at the same time or otherwise.
18.6. No delay or omission of Sublessor to exercise any right or remedy shall
be construed as a waiver of any such right or remedy or of any default by
Sublessee.
18.7. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease in the event the
breach by Sublessee in the reasonable opinion of Sublessor affects or is likely
to affect the efficient operation of the Airport or give rise to public safety
concerns, in addition to any other remedy it may have under this Sublease,
Sublessor shall also be entitled (but shall not be obligated) to take whatever
actions is deemed necessary by Sublessor to xxxxx or cure such situation and
Sublessee shall reimburse Sublessor for all costs incurred by Sublessor in
taking such action.

DELEGATION - ASSIGNMENT - SUBLEASES - MORTGAGE
----------------------------------------------
19.1. Delegation. Sublessee shall not have the right to delegate any of its
----------
responsibilities or obligations under this Sublease.
19.2. Assignment. Sublessee may, subject to Condition 20 of the Master Lease,
without the approval of Sublessor, assign its rights under this Sublease to a
related corporation or other entity as long as Sublessee retains at least fifty-
one percent (51 %) controlling interest in such related corporation or other
entity. All other assignments shall be subject to approval of Sublessor, which
approval shall not be withheld unreasonably. Sublessor has, as a condition of
this Sublease, approved a sub-sublease to Aprisma Management Technologies, Inc.,
("Aprisma") as evidenced by a duly executed Notice of Consent in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit "D-2".
19.3. Subleases. Sublessee may not enter into any sublease of the land area
---------
of the Subleased Premises without Sublessor's prior written approval. Any
request for Sublessor's approval shall be made at least thirty (30) days prior
to the commencement of such tenancy and shall provide detailed information
concerning the identity and financial condition of the proposed sublessee and
the terms and conditions of the proposed sublease. Sublessor shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to such sublease if (1) the use of
the Subleased Premises associated with any sublease(s) is permitted under
Article 9, (2) the sublease(s) are consistent with the terms and conditions of
this Sublease; provided, however, that Sublessee may rent the subleased area at
rentals deemed appropriate by Sublessee, (3) Sublessee remains primarily liable
to Sublessor to pay rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by
Sublessee under this Sublease, and (4) the proposed sublessee is financially and
operationally responsible. In the event the rent for the land area of the
Subleased Premises exceeds the rental charged to Sublessee under Article 4,
Sublessee shall remit fifty percent (50%) of such excess to Sublessor upon
receipt by Sublessee; provided, however, that any rental received by Sublessee
during a period in which no rental is due to Sublessor shall be paid in its
entirety to Sublessor. Sublessor acknowledges and agrees that the preceding
sentence shall not apply to subleases pursuant to which Sublessee is leasing one
or more buildings (or portions of buildings) to direct tenants of Sublessee
notwithstanding the fact that under those subleases the tenants have the right
to use some or all of the land area of the Subleased Premises in connection with
their use and enjoyment of the building(s) they are subleasing from Sublessee.
19.4. Continuing Liability of Sublessee. No subletting, assignment or
---------------------------------
transfer, whether Sublessor's consent is required or otherwise given hereunder,
shall release Sublessee's obligations or alter the primary liability of
Sublessee to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed
by Sublessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Sublessor from any other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Sublessor of any provision hereof.
Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any
subsequent assignment or subletting. If any assignee of Sublessee or any
successor of Sublessee defaults in the performance of any of the terms hereof,
Sublessor may proceed directly against Sublessee without the necessity of
exhausting remedies against such assignee
-43-
or successor. If Sublessee assigns this Sublease, or sublets all or a portion of
the Subleased Premises, or requests the consent of Sublessor to any assignment
or subletting, or if Sublessee requests the consent of Sublessor for any act
that Sublessee proposes to do, then Sublessee shall pay Sublessor's reasonable
processing fee and reimburse Sublessor for all reasonable attorneys' fees
incurred in connection therewith. Any assignment or subletting of the Subleased
Premises that is not in compliance with the provisions of this Article 19 shall
be void and shall, at the option of Sublessor, but subject to any applicable
notice and cure period, terminate this Sublease. Notwithstanding the preceding
provisions regarding assignments and subletting and the continuing liability of
Sublessee, the parties agree that Sublessee may, at any time, and whether or not
its proposed assignment or sublease is to an affiliate, request that Sublessor
in its sole discretion approve an assignment or sublease by Sublessee to a third
party and relieve Sublessee of its liability under this Sublease.
19.5. Bankruptcy. If a petition is filed by or against Sublessee for relief
----------
under Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code"),
and Sublessee (including for purposes of this Section Sublessee's successor in
bankruptcy, whether a trustee or Sublessee as debtor-in-possession) assumes and
proposes to assign, or proposes to assume and assign, this Sublease pursuant to
the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to any person or entity who has made a
bona fide offer to accept an assignment of this Sublease, then notice of the
proposed assignment setting forth (a) the name and address of the proposed
assignee, (b) all of the terms and conditions of the offer and proposed
assignment, and (c) the adequate assurance to be furnished by the proposed
assignee of its future performance under the Sublease, shall be given to
Sublessor by Sublessee no later than twenty (20) days after Sublessee has made
or received such offer, but in no event later than thirty (30) days prior to the
date on which Sublessee applies to a court of competent jurisdiction for
authority and approval to enter into the proposed assignment. If this Sublease
is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, Sublessor may
request from the assignee a guarantee similar to that requested of Sublessee
under Article 29. Any person or entity to which this Sublease is assigned
pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed, without
further act or documentation, to have assumed all of the Sublessee's obligations
arising under this Sublease on and after the date of such assignment. Any such
assignee shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Sublessor an instrument
confirming such assumption. No provision of this Sublease shall be deemed a
waiver of Sublessor's rights or remedies under the Bankruptcy Code to oppose any
assumption and/or assignment of this Sublease, to require a timely performance
of Sublessee's obligations under this Sublease, or to regain possession of the
Premises if this Sublease has neither been assumed nor rejected within sixty
(60) days after the date of the order for relief or within such additional time
as a court of competent jurisdiction may have fixed. Notwithstanding anything in
this Sublease to the contrary, all amounts payable by Sublessee to or on behalf
of Sublessor under this Sublease, whether or not expressly denominated as rent,
shall constitute rent for the purposes of Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy
Code.
19.6. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease, any assignment or
sublease shall comply with the provision of Article 25 including the notice
requirements of Condition 10.8 of the FFA (as that term is defined in Section
25.8 of this Sublease).
-44-
19.7. Mortgages. Subject to the provisions of this Sublease and Condition 21
---------
of the Master Lease, Sublessee shall have the right, at any time during the term
of this Sublease, to encumber its estate in the Subleased Premises pursuant to
one or more mortgages or deeds of trust ("Subleasehold Mortgage") only to
provide financing as set forth herein. Any right granted to Sublessee to
encumber its estate in the Subleased Premises through grant of a Subleasehold
Mortgage shall be subject to the requirement that (i) the maximum amount of any
permanent or refinance Subleasehold Mortgage shall not exceed eighty percent
(80%) of the appraised fair market value of the Subleased Premises, including
the Facility; and (ii) the maximum amount of any permanent or refinance
Subleasehold Mortgage on the land area of the Subleased Premises, excluding the
Facility, shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the total cost of any
authorized capital improvements with a useful life in excess of five (5) years.
No Subleasehold Mortgage shall extend to or affect the fee, the reversionary
interest or the estate of Sublessor and/or the Air Force in or to any land,
building or improvements existing or subsequently constructed on the Subleased
Premises. No Subleasehold Mortgage shall be binding upon Sublessor and/or the
Air Force in the enforcement of its rights and remedies herein and by law
provided, unless, and until a copy thereof shall have been delivered to
Sublessor and the Air Force and such mortgage is authorized under this Section
19.7. Sublessor and Sublessee agree that so long as any authorized Subleasehold
Mortgage is a lien on Sublessee's estate in the Subleased Premises, the
mortgagee or beneficiary thereunder ("Subleasehold Mortgagee") shall have all of
the following rights:
(1) If Sublessee shall have delivered to Sublessor prior written notice
of the address of any Subleasehold Mortgagee, Sublessor will give to the
Subleasehold Mortgagee a copy of any notice under this Sublease at the time of
giving such notice to Sublessee, and will give to the Subleasehold Mortgagee
notice received by Sublessor of any rejection of this Sublease by the trustee in
bankruptcy of Sublessee or by Sublessee as debtor-in-possession. In such case no
termination of this Sublease or termination of Sublessee's right of possession
of the Subleased Premises or reletting of the Subleased Premises by Sublessor
predicated on the giving of any notice shall be effective unless Sublessor gives
to the Subleasehold Mortgagee written notice or a copy of its notice to
Sublessee of such default or termination, as the case may be. Notices, demands
and requests from Sublessor to the Subleasehold Mortgagee shall be mailed to the
address given to Sublessor by certified or registered mail and notices, demands
and requests from the Subleasehold Mortgagee to Sublessor shall be delivered in
the manner and to the address as specified in Article 23 hereof.
(2) In the event of any default by Sublessee under the provisions of this
Sublease, the Subleasehold Mortgagee will have the same concurrent grace periods
as are given Sublessee for remedying such default or causing it to be remedied,
plus, in each case, an additional period of thirty (30) days after the
expiration thereof or after Sublessor has served a notice or a copy of a notice
of default upon the Subleasehold Mortgagee, whichever is later.
(3) In the event Sublessee shall default under any of the provisions of
this Sublease, the Subleasehold Mortgagee, without prejudice to its rights
against Sublessee, shall have the right to cure such default within the
applicable grace periods provided for in the preceding paragraph of this Section
whether the same consists of the failure to pay rent or the failure to perform
any other matter or thing which Sublessee is hereby required to do or perform,
and Sublessor shall accept such performance on
-45-
the part of the Subleasehold Mortgagee as though the same had been done or
performed by Sublessee. For such purpose Sublessor and Sublessee hereby
authorize the Subleasehold Mortgagee to enter upon the Subleased Premises and to
exercise any of Sublessee's rights and powers under this Sublease, and subject
to the provisions of this Sublease, under the Subleasehold Mortgage.
(4) The term "incurable default" as used herein means any default which
cannot be cured by a Subleasehold Mortgagee. The term "curable default" means
any default under this Sublease which is not an incurable default. In the event
of any curable default under this Sublease, and if prior to the expiration of
the applicable grace period specified in subparagraph (2) of this Section, the
Subleasehold Mortgagee shall give Sublessor written notice that it intends to
undertake the curing of such default, or to cause the same to be cured, or to
exercise its rights to acquire the leasehold interest of Sublessee by
foreclosure or otherwise, and shall immediately commence and then proceed with
all due diligence to do so, whether by performance on behalf of Sublessee of its
obligations under this Sublease, or by entry on the Subleased Premises by
foreclosure or otherwise, then Sublessor will not terminate or take any action
to effect a termination of this Sublease or re-enter, take possession of or
relet the Subleased Premises or similarly enforce performance of this Sublease
so long as the Subleasehold Mortgagee is, with all due diligence and in good
faith, engaged in the curing of such default, or effecting such foreclosure,
provided, however, that the Subleasehold Mortgagee shall not be required to
continue such possession or continue such foreclosure proceedings if such
default shall be cured. Nothing herein shall preclude Sublessor from terminating
this Sublease with respect to any additional default which shall occur during
the aforesaid period of forbearance and not be remedied within the period of
grace, if any, applicable to any such additional default provided that Sublessor
provides the Subleasehold Mortgagee with notice and opportunity to cure any such
additional default.
(5) In the event that this Sublease is terminated by Sublessor on account
of any incurable default or in the event Sublessee's interest under this
Sublease shall be sold, assigned, or transferred pursuant to the exercise of any
remedy of this Sublease or pursuant to judicial proceedings, and if (i) no rent
or other charges shall then be due and payable by Sublessee under this Sublease,
and (ii) the Subleasehold Mortgagee shall have arranged to the reasonable
satisfaction of Sublessor to cure any curable default of Sublessee under this
Sublease, then Sublessor, within thirty (30) days after receiving a written
request therefor, which shall be given within sixty (60) days after such
termination or transfer and upon payment to it of all expenses, including
attorney's fees, incident thereto, Sublessor will execute and deliver a new
lease of the Subleased Premises to the Subleasehold Mortgagee or its nominee or
to the purchaser, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, for the remainder
of the term of this Sublease, containing the same covenants, agreements, terms,
provisions and limitations as are contained herein. Upon the execution and
delivery of such new lease, the new tenant, in its own name or in the name of
Sublessor may take all appropriate steps as shall be necessary to remove
Sublessee from the Subleased Premises, but Sublessor shall not be subject to any
liability for the payment of fees, including reasonable attorney's fees, costs
or expenses in connection therewith; and said new tenant shall pay all such
fees; including attorney's fees, costs and expenses or, on demand, make
reimbursements therefor to Sublessor.
-46-
(6) In the event a default under the Subleasehold Mortgage shall have
occurred, the Subleasehold Mortgagee may exercise, with respect to the Subleased
Premises, any right, power or remedy under the Subleasehold Mortgage, which is
not in conflict with the provisions of this Sublease. Any Subleasehold Mortgagee
shall be liable to perform the obligations herein imposed on Sublessee only
during the period it is in possession or ownership of the leasehold estate
created hereby.
(7) This Sublease may be assigned, with the consent of Sublessor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to or by the Subleasehold
Mortgagee or its nominee, pursuant to foreclosure or similar proceedings.
(8) No surrender (except a surrender upon the expiration of the term of
this Sublease or upon termination by Sublessor pursuant and subject to the
provisions of this Sublease) by Sublessee to Sublessor of this Sublease, or of
the Subleased Premises, or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, and no
termination of this Sublease by Sublessee shall be valid or effective, and
neither this Sublease nor any of the terms hereof may be amended, modified,
changed or canceled without prior written consent of the Subleasehold Mortgagee.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Sublease to the contrary, no
refinancing of any existing subleasehold mortgage shall be effective without the
advance written approval of Sublessor which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.

25.1. Sublessee and any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee shall comply with
all federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and standards that are or may

Subleased Premises, including but not limited to, the applicable environmental
laws and regulations identified in Exhibit "E", as amended from time to time.
25.2. Sublessee and any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee shall be solely

25.3. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sublessor and the Air
Force against and from all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs

expiration or termination of the Sublease, and the Sublessor's obligations
hereunder shall apply whenever the Sublessee incurs costs or liabilities for the
Sublessor's actions of the types described in this Article.

enforcing them. Such inspections are without prejudice to the right of duly
constituted enforcement officials to make such inspections.
25.7. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease, Sublessor is not
responsible for any removal or containment of asbestos. If Sublessee and any
sublessee or assignee intend to make any improvements, alterations or repairs,
including demolition, that require the removal of asbestos, an appropriate

expense.
25.8. Sublessor and Sublessee acknowledge that the Airport has been identified
as a National Priority List (NPL) Site under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. Sublessee
acknowledges that Sublessor has provided it with a copy of the Xxxxx Federal
Facility Agreement ("FFA") entered into by EPA, and the Air Force on April 24,
1991, and Modification No. l thereto, effective March 18, 1993, agrees that it
will comply with the terms of the FFA to the extent the same may be applicable
to the Subleased Premises and that should any conflict arise between the terms
of the FFA and the provisions of this Sublease, the terms of the FFA will take
precedence. The Sublessee further agrees that the Sublessor assumes no liability
to the Sublessee or any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee should implementation
of the FFA interfere with their use of the Subleased Premises. The Sublessee and
its sublessee(s) and assignee(s) hall have no claim on account of any such
interference against the Sublessor or any officer, agent, employee or contractor
thereof, other than for abatement of rent.
25.9. The Air Force, EPA, and NHDES and their officers, agents, employees,
contractors, and subcontractors have the right, upon reasonable notice to the
Sublessee and any sublessee or assignee, to enter upon the Subleased Premises
for the purposes enumerated in this subparagraph and for such other purposes
consistent with the FFA:
(1) to conduct investigations and surveys, including, where necessary,
drilling, soil and water sampling, testpitting, testing soil borings and
other activities related to the Xxxxx Installation Restoration Program
("IRP") or the FFA;
(2) to inspect field activities of the Air Force and its contractors
and subcontractors in implementing the IRP or the FFA;
(3) to conduct any test or survey required by the EPA or NHDES
relating to the implementation of the FFA or environmental conditions at
the Subleased Premises or to verify any data submitted to the EPA or NHDES
by the Air Force relating to such conditions;
-55-
(4) to conduct, operate, maintain or undertake any other response or
remedial action as required or necessary under the IRP or the FFA,
including, but not limited to monitoring xxxxx, pumping xxxxx and treatment
facilities.
25.10. Sublessee and its sublessees and assignees agree to comply with the
provisions of any health or safety plan in effect under the IRP or the FFA
during the course of any of the above described response or remedial actions.
Any inspection, survey, investigation, or other response or remedial action
will, to the extent practicable, be coordinated with representatives designated
by the Sublessee and any sublessee or assignee. Sublessee and any sublessee or
assignee shall have no claim on account of such entries against the United
States or the State as defined in FFA or any officer, agent, employee,
contractor, or subcontractor thereof.
25.11. Sublessee further agrees that in the event of any authorized sublease or
assignment of the Subleased Premises, it shall provide to the Air Force, EPA and
NHDES by certified mail a copy of the agreement of sublease or assignment of the
Subleased Premises within fourteen (14) days after the effective date of such
transaction. Sublessee may delete the financial terms and any other proprietary
information from any sublease or assignment submitted to the above mentioned
entities.
25.12. The Airport air emissions offsets and Air Force accumulation points for
hazardous and other wastes will not be made available to Sublessee. Sublessee
shall be responsible for obtaining from some other source(s) any air pollution
credits that may be required to offset emissions resulting from its activities
under the Sublease.
25.13. Any permit required under Hazardous Substance Laws for the management of
Hazardous Substances stored or generated by Sublessee or any sublessee or
assignee of Sublessee shall be obtained by Sublessee or its sublessees or
assignee and shall be limited to generation and transportation. Any violation of
this requirement shall be deemed a material breach of this Sublease. Sublessee
shall provide at its own expense such hazardous waste storage facilities,
complying with all laws and regulations, as it needs for management of its
hazardous waste.
25.14. Sublessee, and any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee whose operations
utilize Hazardous Substances, shall have a completed and approved plan for
responding to Hazardous Substances spills prior to commencement of operations on
the Subleased Premises. Such plan shall comply with changes in site conditions
or applicable requirements and shall be updated from time to time, as may be
required to comply with changes in site conditions or applicable requirements
and shall be approved by agencies having regulatory jurisdiction over such plan.
Such plan shall be independent of, but not inconsistent with, any plan or other
standard of Sublessor applicable to the Airport and except for initial fire
response and/or spill containment, shall not rely on use of the Airport or
Sublessor personnel or equipment. Should the Sublessor provide any personnel or
equipment, whether for initial fire response and/or spill containment or
otherwise, on request of the Sublessee, or because the Sublessee was not, in the
opinion of Sublessor, conducting timely cleanup actions, the Sublessee agrees to
reimburse the Sublessor for its costs.
-56-
25.15. Sublessee, and any sublessee or assignee of Sublessee, must maintain and
make available to Sublessor, the Air Force, EPA and NHDES all records,
inspection logs, and manifests that track the generation, handling, storage,
treatment and disposal of hazardous waste, as well as all other records required
by applicable laws and requirements. The Sublessor and the Air Force reserve the
right to inspect the Subleased Premises and Sublessee's, its sublessee's or
assignee's records for compliance with Federal, State, local laws, regulations,
and other requirements relating to the generation, handling, storage, treatment
and disposal of hazardous waste, as well as the discharge or release of
hazardous substances. Violations may be reported by Sublessor and the Air Force
to appropriate regulatory agencies, as required by applicable law. The
Sublessee, its sublessees or assignees shall be liable for the payment of any
fines and penalties or costs which may accrue to the Government or Sublessor as
a result of the actions of Sublessee, its sublessees or assignees, respectively.
25.16. Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees agree to comply with the
provisions of any Wetlands Management Plan in effect at Xxxxx, a copy of which
is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit H. Sublessee, its
sublessees and assignees will minimize the destruction, loss or degradation of
wetlands on the Subleased Premises. Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees will
obtain prior written approval from Sublessor and the Air Force before conducting
any new construction in wetland areas. Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees
will obtain all necessary permits or waivers under Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act and the New Hampshire Fill and Dredge in Wetlands Act.
25.17. Prior to the development of any portion of the Subleased Premises on
which a wetland has been identified in the Final Supplemental Environmental
Impact Statement dated August 1995 ("SEIS"), the Sublessee, its sublessees and
assignees, as applicable, shall, if one has not previously been completed,
perform a wetland delineation.
25.18. Prior to the storage, mixing, or application of any pesticide, as that
term is defined under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act,
the Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees shall prepare a plan for storage,
mixing and application of pesticides ("Pesticide Management Plan"). The
Pesticide Management Plan shall be sufficient to meet all applicable Federal,
State and local pesticide requirements. The Sublessee, its sublessees and
assignees shall store, mix and apply all pesticides within the Subleased
Premises only in strict compliance with the Pesticide Management Plan. The
pesticides will only be applied by a licensed applicator.
25.19. The Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees must notify the Sublessor
and the Site Manager of its intent to possess, store, or use any licensed or
licensable source or byproduct materials, as those terms are defined under the
Atomic Energy Act and its implementing regulations; of Sublessee's, its
sublessees and assignees intent to possess, use, or store radium; and of
Sublessee's, its sublessees and assignees intent to possess or use any equipment
producing ionizing radiation and subject to specific licensing requirements or
other individual regulations, at least sixty (60) days prior to the entry of
such materials or equipment upon the Airport. Upon notification, the Sublessor
and the Site Manager may impose such requirements, including prohibition of
possession, use, or storage, as deemed necessary to adequately protect health
and human environment. Thereafter, the Sublessee must notify the Sublessor and
the Site Manager of the presence of all licensed or licensable source or other
byproduct materials, of the presence
-57-
of all radium, and of the presence of all equipment producing ionizing radiation
and subject to specific licensing requirements or other individual regulation;
provided, however, that the Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees need not
make either of the above notifications to the Sublessor and the Site Manager
with respect to source and byproduct material which is exempt from regulation
under the Atomic Energy Act. The Sublessee shall not, under any circumstances,
use, own, possess or allow the presence of special nuclear material on the
Subleased Premises.
25.20. The Sublessee, its sublessees and assignees acknowledge that lead-based
paint may be present in and on facilities within the Subleased Premises. The Air
Force may conduct surveys to determine the existence and extent of any possible
lead-based paint in or on the Subleased Premises. Prior to beginning any
Alterations, other construction or construction related work, (to include paint
stripping or sanding), excavating, demolition, or restoration, the Sublessee,
any sublessee or assignee must test any paint which would be disturbed unless a
conclusive determination has been made that lead-based paint is not present. If
paint is lead-based, the Sublessee, any sublessee or assignee is required to
handle it in accordance with Title X and all applicable Federal, State and local
laws and regulations at its own expense. The Sublessee is required to ensure
that any lead-based paint is maintained in good condition.
25.21. The Sublessee acknowledges that chlordane was used at selected housing
units as described in Environmental Condition Report, Exhibit D-1 of the Master
Lease. The Sublessee, its sublessees or assignees will follow all applicable
laws and regulations should the Sublessee, its sublessee or assignee choose to
disturb or excavate any of this material. Any cost associated with this action
shall be at the Sublessee's, its sublessee's or assignee's expense.

ARTICLE 26.
MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
26.1. All rent and all other sums which may from time to time become due and
payable by Sublessee to Sublessor under any of the provisions of this Sublease
shall be made payable to the "Xxxxx Development Authority" and forwarded by the
Sublessee direct to Sublessor's Executive Director at the address specified in
Article 23. All such rent and other sums if not paid on the due date and the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure period shall bear interest from and
after the due date thereof at the higher of the then current rate applied to
legal judgments by the courts of the State of New Hampshire or the rate of prime
plus 4% per annum; provided, however, that such interest shall in no event
exceed the maximum rate permitted by law.
26.2. In all cases the language in all parts of this Sublease shall be
construed simply, according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against
Sublessor or Sublessee.
26.3. The word titles underlying the Article designations contained herein are
inserted solely for convenience and under no circumstances are they or any of
them to be treated or construed as any part of this instrument.
26.4. In any action or proceeding which either Party may take to enforce such
Party's rights hereunder, whether prior to or after breach or termination, or to
which such Party may be made a party because of any matters arising or growing
out of this Sublease, and due to the act or default of the other, the Party
whose act or default caused the other Party, without fault to become involved in
such litigation, or who shall be defeated in such litigation, agrees to pay all
costs incurred by the winning or other party therein, including reasonable
attorneys' fees.
26.5. If Sublessee should remain in possession of the Subleased Premises after
the expiration of the term of this Sublease and without executing a new lease,
then such holding over shall be construed as a tenancy from month to month,
subject to all the conditions, provisions and obligations of this Sublease
insofar as the same are applicable to a month to month tenancy.
26.6. The individual executing this Sublease on behalf of Sublessee represents
and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Sublease on behalf of said entity, and that this Sublease is binding upon said
entity in accordance with its terms. A Certificate of Existence issued by the
New Hampshire Secretary of State is attached to this Sublease as Exhibit F.
26.7. This Sublease covers in full each and every agreement of every kind or
nature whatsoever between the Parties hereto concerning the Subleased Premises
and all preliminary negotiations and agreements of every kind or nature
whatsoever with respect to the Subleased Premises; and no other person, firm or
corporation has at any time had any authority from Sublessor to make any
representations or promises on behalf of Sublessor, and Sublessee expressly
agrees that if any such representations or promises have been made by Sublessor
or others, Sublessee hereby waives all right to rely thereon. No verbal
-59-
agreement or implied covenant shall be held to vary the provisions hereof, any
statute, law, or custom to the contrary notwithstanding. No provision of this
Sublease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by
the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest. Sublessee
acknowledges that it has read this Section and understands it to be a waiver of
any right to rely on any representations or agreements not expressly set forth
in this Sublease.
26.8. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Sublease shall be binding upon and
shall inure; to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, and wherever a reference in this Sublease is made to
either of the Parties hereto such reference shall be deemed to include, wherever
applicable, also a reference to the successors and assigns of such party, as if
in every case so expressed.
26.9. Nothing contained in this Sublease shall be deemed or construed by the
Parties hereto or by any third person to create the relationship of principal
and agent or of partnership or of joint venture or of any association between
Sublessor and Sublessee, and neither the method of computation of rent nor any
other provision contained in this Sublease nor any acts of the Parties hereto
shall be deemed to create any relationship between Sublessor and Sublessee other
than the relationship of landlord and tenant.
26.10. Sublessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Sublessee to
Sublessor of rent and other sums due under this Sublease will cause Sublessor to
incur additional costs not contemplated by this Sublease, the exact amount of
which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such additional costs include,
without limitation, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which
may be imposed upon Sublessor by the terms of the mortgage or deed of trust
covering the Premises. Therefore, if any installment of rent or any other sum
due from Sublessee shall not be received in or within seven (7) days of the date
that such amount shall be due, Sublessee agrees to pay, and shall pay, to
Sublessor a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount. The
Parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable
estimate of the costs Sublessor will incur by reason of late payment by
Sublessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Sublessor shall in no event
constitute a waiver of Sublessee's default with respect to such overdue amount
or prevent Sublessor from exercising any or all of the other rights and remedies
granted under this Sublease.
26.11. Each party warrants to the other that it has had no dealing with any
real estate broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Sublease.
26.12. This Sublease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of New Hampshire.
26.13. Any actions or proceedings with respect to any matters arising under or
growing out of this Sublease shall be instituted and prosecuted only in courts
located in the State of New Hampshire. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Sublease, no provision of this Sublease shall be deemed to constitute or
effect a waiver of the sovereign immunity of the State of New Hampshire and no
provision of this Sublease, other than the provisions of Article 25 in which
Sublessor agrees to indemnify Sublessee, shall be deemed to constitute or effect
a waiver of the sovereign immunity of Sublessor as a body politic and corporate
of the State of New Hampshire.
-60-
The sovereign immunity of the State of New Hampshire is reserved to the State of
New Hampshire to the fullest extent allowed under law and the sovereign immunity
of Sublessor is reserved to Sublessor to the fullest extent allowed under law
with the sole exception of Sublessor's indemnification obligations to Sublessee
under Article 25, provided, however, that Sublessor agrees to waive immunity for
contractual claims under this Sublease to the extent permitted by New Hampshire
RSA Ch. 491:8, as the same may be amended.
26.14. This instrument may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one
and the same instrument.
26.15. Sublessee shall faithfully observe and comply with such rules and
regulations as Sublessor may adopt for the operation of the Airport, which rules
and regulations are reasonable and nondiscriminatory as well as all
modifications thereof and additions thereto. Sublessor shall not be responsible
to Sublessee for the violation or nonperformance by any other tenant of
Sublessor of any of such Rules and Regulations.
26.16. Sublessee agrees to conform to such additional provisions required, from
time to time, by the FAA ("FAA Requirements") or its successor with respect to
the operation of the Airport, or a portion thereof. The current FAA Requirements
are attached hereto as Exhibit "D" and incorporated herein by reference.
26.17. This Sublease is subject and subordinate to any agreements heretofore or
hereafter made between Sublessor and the United States or the Air Force, the
execution of which is required to enable or permit transfer of rights or
property to Sublessor for airport purposes or expenditure of federal grant funds
for airport improvement, maintenance or development, including, without
limitation, the Application and Acceptance, Master Lease and FFA. Sublessee
shall abide by requirements of any agreement between Sublessor and the United
States or the Air Force applicable to the Subleased Premises or Sublessee's
activities at the Airport and shall consent to amendments and modifications of
this Sublease if required by such agreements or as a condition of Sublessor's
entry into such agreements; provided, however, that no such agreement shall
modify or alter any obligation of Sublessee with respect to rent or additional
rent payments due by Sublessee to Sublessor under this Sublease.
26.18. Sublessor, in its sole discretion, shall determine and may from time to
time change the routes of surface ingress and egress connecting the Subleased
Premises. Sublessor also reserves the right to further develop the Airport, or
such portion of the Airport as is owned or controlled by 5ublessor, as it sees
fit, regardless of the desires or views of Sublessee and without interference or
hindrance.
26.19. The Sublessee herein covenants by and for itself, its heirs, executors,
administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through it, that
this Sublease is made and accepted upon and subject to the following conditions:
That there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any person
or group of persons, on account of race, color, creed, national origin, or
ancestry, in the leasing, subleasing, transferring, use, occupancy, tenure, or
enjoyment of the Premises herein leased nor shall the Sublessee, or any person
-61-
claiming under or through it, establish or permit any such practice or practices
of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location,
number, use, or occupancy, of tenants, lessees, sublessees, subtenants, or
venders in the Subleased Premises herein leased.
26.20. All obligations of Sublessee to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Sublessor and to make any monetary payment to Sublessor, shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Sublease.
26.21. Sublessor and Sublessee shall, at the request of either one, promptly
execute a Notice of Lease with respect to this Sublease in form suitable for
recording, setting forth the names and addresses of the parties, a description
of the Premises, the term and any extension terms, any options or rights of
first refusal, and any other terms and provisions hereof as either party may
request excepting for the rental and financial terms.

APPLICATION AND ACCEPTANCE
--------------------------
-65-
DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE
Base Disposal Agency (AFBDA-BDR)
XXXXXXXXXX, XX 00000-0000
AMENDED APPLICATION FOR AIRPORT PROPERTY
BY STATE, POLITICAL SUBDIVISION, MUNICIPALITY, OR TAX-SUPPORTED INSTITUTION
Application is hereby made to the Department of the Air Force by, the
Xxxxx Development Authority, an authority authorized under the laws of the State
of New Hampshire ("Applicant") for transfer to it, pursuant to 13(g) of the
Surplus Property Act of 1944, as amended (50 App. U.S.C. 1622(g)) and upon the
terms and conditions herein set forth, of surplus property consisting of
portions of the installation generally known as Xxxxx Air Force Base ("Xxxxx
AFB"), located in or near Portsmouth, State of New Hampshire, including certain
related personal property, all more particularly described in Schedule A and
shown on Schedule B, both schedules attached hereto and made a part of this
Application. All real and personal property identified in Schedules A and B is
hereinafter referred to as the "Airport."
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. This Application and its acceptance by the Department of the Air Force
("Air Force" or "Government") and the related lease agreement ("Related Lease")
to be executed contemporaneously herewith shall constitute the entire agreement
between the
Applicant and the Air Force unless modified in writing signed by both parties.
2. Applicant warrants that no person or agency has been employed or
retained to solicit or secure acceptance of this Application upon an agreement
or understanding for a commission, percentage, brokerage, or other contingent
fee, except bona fide employees or bona fide commercial agencies maintained by
the Applicant for the purpose of doing business. For breach or violation of this
warranty, the Government shall have the right to annul this contract without
liability, or in its discretion to require Applicant to pay to it the full
amount of such commission, percentage, brokerage, or contingent fee.
3. The failure of Applicant to inspect fully the Airport or to be fully
informed as to the condition thereof will not constitute grounds for any
noncompliance with the terms of this Application if accepted by the Air Force.
4. The Airport will be transferred "as is" and "where is" without warranty
or guarantee, express or implied, of any kind or nature, except as otherwise
expressly stated in Section 5 below. This provision shall not be construed to
require the Applicant to release the United States from any liability it may
have incurred under Federal or state environmental laws for any act or omission
of the United States, or its officers, agents, or employees, at Xxxxx AFB.
2
5. It is the intent of the Applicant and the Air Force that this
Application, when accepted by the Air Force, will constitute a contract for the
transfer of the Airport to the Applicant, setting forth terms and conditions to
be included in the deed effecting the final disposition of the Airport. Final
disposition of the Airport shall be accomplished by execution of a deed in form
satisfactory to the Air Force, the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), and
the Applicant without warranty, express or implied, except that the deed shall
include the provisions of Section 5a below, as covenants running with the land
and binding on the Government. The deed also shall contain covenants running
with the land which require the observance by the grantee of the reservations,
restrictions, and conditions contained below in Sections 5b to 5n inclusive;
except that the provisions of subsections 5b(1) and 5b(2) below shall be
included in the deed as conditions subsequent rather than as covenants.
a. Information and Covenants Required Pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
9620(h)(3). That if any hazardous substance was stored for one year or more,
known to have been released, or disposed of on the real property, each deed
entered into for the transfer of such property by the United States to any other
person or entity shall contain, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 9620(h)(3), the following:
(1) to the extent such information is available on the basis
of a complete search of Air Force files, (a) a notice of
3
the type and quantity of such hazardous substances; (b) notice of the time at
which such storage, release, or disposal took place; and (c) a description of
the remedial action taken, if any; and
(2) if the grantee is not a potentially responsible party with
respect to the real property, a covenant warranting that (a) all remedial action
necessary to protect human health and the environment with respect to any such
substance remaining on the property has been taken before the date of such
transfer, and (b) any additional remedial action found to be necessary after the
date of such transfer shall be conducted by the United States.
b. Use by the Grantee.
(1) That, except as provided in subsection 5b(4) hereof, the
Airport shall be used for public airport purposes for the use and benefit of the
public, on reasonable terms and without unjust discrimination and without grant
or exercise of any exclusive right for use of the Airport within the meaning of
the term "exclusive right" as used in subsection 5b(6).
(2) That, except as provided in subsection 5b(4) hereof, the
entire landing area, as defined in Section 101 of the Federal Aviation Act of
1958, as amended, and Federal Aviation Regulations pertaining thereto, and all
structures, improvements, facilities and equipment in which any interest is
transferred
4
shall be maintained for the use and benefit of the public at all times in safe
and serviceable condition so as to assure its efficient operation and use;
provided, however, that such maintenance shall be required as to structures,
improvements, facilities, and equipment only during the useful life thereof as
determined by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in function.
In the event materials are required to rehabilitate or repair certain of the
aforementioned structures, improvements, facilities, or equipment, they may be
procured by demolition of other structures, improvements, facilities, or
equipment transferred as a result of this Application and located on the
above-described land, which have outlived their use as airport property in the
opinion of the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in function.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this instrument: (i) with the prior
written approval of the FAA, the grantee may close or otherwise limit use or
access to any portion of the Airport that it deems appropriate if such closure
or use limitation is related to Airport operating considerations or is based
upon insufficient demand for such portion of the Airport; and (ii) with respect
to any such portion of the Airport, the grantee shall be under no obligation to
maintain the same other than as may be required to maintain adequate public
safety conditions.
(3) That insofar as it is within its power and to the extent
reasonable, the grantee shall adequately clear and protect the aerial approaches
to the Airport. The grantee will,
5
either by the acquisition and retention of easements or other interests in or
rights for the use of land airspace, or by the adoption and enforcement of
zoning regulations, prevent the construction, erection, alteration, or growth of
any structure, tree, or other object in the approach areas of the runways of the
Airport which would constitute an obstruction to air navigation according to the
criteria or standards prescribed in Part 77 of the Federal Aviation
Administration Regulations, as applicable, according to the currently approved
airport layout plan. In addition, the grantee will not erect or permit the
erection of any permanent structure or facility which would interfere materially
with the use, operation, or future development of the Airport, in any portion of
a runway approach area in which the grantee has acquired, or may hereafter
acquire a property interest permitting it to so control the use made of the
surface of the land. Insofar as is within its power and to the extent reasonable
the grantee will take action to restrict the use of the land adjacent to or in
the immediate vicinity of the Airport to activities and purposes compatible with
normal airport operations, including landing and takeoff of aircraft.
(4) That no property included in the Airport shall be used,
leased, sold, salvaged, or disposed of by the grantee for other than airport
purposes without the written consent of the Administrator of the FAA or his or
her successor in function. This consent shall be granted only if the
Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in function determines that the
property
6
can be used, leased, sold, salvaged, or disposed of for other than airport
purposes without materially and adversely affecting the development,
improvement, operation, or maintenance of the Airport. The term "property" as
used herein, is deemed to include revenues or proceeds (including any insurance
proceeds) derived from the Airport. The term "airport purposes" as used herein
shall have the same meaning as that ascribed to the term under 14 CFR Section
154.1(d) and shall include the use of property to produce sources of revenue
from nonaviation business at the Airport and all uses in connection with airport
purposes contemplated within the scope of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement, Disposal and Reuse of Xxxxx Air Force Base, New Hampshire (U.S. Air
Force, June 1991) ("FEIS"), the Record of Decision dated August 20, 1991
(including attachments thereto) ("ROD"), and the Supplemental Record of Decision
dated April 13, 1992 ("Supplemental ROD").
(5) That property transferred for the development,
improvement, operation or maintenance of the Airport shall be used and
maintained for the use and benefit of the public on fair and reasonable terms,
without unjust discrimination. In furtherance of this covenant (but without
limiting its general applicability and effect), the grantee specifically agrees:
(a) that it will keep the Airport open to all types, kinds, and classes of
aeronautical use without discrimination between such types, kinds and classes.
Provided, that the grantee may establish such fair, equal, and not unjustly
discriminatory conditions to be met by all
7
users of the Airport as may be necessary for the safe and efficient operation of
the Airport; and provided, that the grantee may prohibit or limit any given
type, kind, or class of aeronautical use of the Airport if such action is
necessary for the safe operation of the Airport or necessary to serve the civil
aviation needs of the public: (b) that, in its operation and the operation of
facilities on the Airport, neither it nor any person or organization occupying
space or facilities thereupon, will discriminate against any person or class of
persons by reason of race, color, creed, or national origin in the use of any of
the facilities provided for the public at the Airport; (c) that, in any
agreement, contract, lease, or other arrangement under which a right or
privilege at the Airport is granted to any person, firm or corporation to
conduct or engage in any aeronautical activity for furnishing services to the
public at the Airport, the grantee will insert and enforce provisions requiring
the contractor: (i) to furnish said service on a fair, equal and not unjustly
discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and (ii) to charge fair, reasonable,
and not unjustly discriminatory prices for each unit for service, provided, that
the contractor may be allowed to make reasonable and nondiscriminatory
discounts, rebates, or other similar types of price reductions to volume
purchasers; (d) that, the grantee will not exercise or grant any right or
privilege which would operate to prevent any person, firm, or corporation
operating aircraft on the Airport from performing any services on its own
aircraft with its own employees (including, but not limited to maintenance and
repair) that it may choose to perform;
8
(e) that, in the event the grantee itself exercises any of the rights and
privileges referred to in subsection (c) above, the services involved will be
provided on the same conditions as would apply to the furnishing of such
services by contractors or concessionaires of the grantee under the provisions
of such subsection (c) of this paragraph 5b(5).
(6) That the grantee will not grant or permit any exclusive
right for the use of the Airport which is forbidden by Section 308 of the
Federal Aviation Act of 1958, as amended, by any person or persons to the
exclusion of others in the same class and will otherwise comply with all
applicable laws. In furtherance of this covenant (but without limiting its
general applicability and effect), the grantee specifically agrees that, unless
authorized by the Administrator of FAA or his or her successor in function, it
will not, either directly or indirectly, grant or permit any person, firm or
corporation the exclusive right to conduct any aeronautical activity on the
Airport including but not limited to, charter flights, pilot training, aircraft
rental and sight-seeing, aerial photography, crop dusting, aerial advertising
and surveying, air carrier operations, aircraft sales and services, sale of
aviation petroleum products whether or not conducted in conjunction with other
aeronautical activity, repair and maintenance of aircraft, sale of aircraft
parts, and any other activities which because of their direct relationship to
the operation of aircraft can be regarded as an aeronautical activity. The
grantee further agrees that it will
9
terminate as soon as possible and no later than the earliest renewal,
cancellation, or expiration date applicable thereof, any exclusive right
existing at any airport owned or controlled by the grantee or hereinafter
acquired and that, thereafter, no such right shall be granted. However, nothing
contained herein shall be construed to prohibit the granting or exercise of an
exclusive right for the furnishing of nonaviation products and supplies or any
services of a nonaeronautical nature or to obligate the grantee to furnish any
particular nonaeronautical service at the Airport.
(7) That the grantee will operate and maintain in a safe and
serviceable condition, as deemed reasonably necessary by the Administrator of
the FAA or his or her successor in function, the Airport and all facilities
thereon and connected therewith which are necessary to service the aeronautical
users of the Airport, other than facilities owned or controlled by the United
States, and will not permit any activity thereon which would interfere with its
use for airport purposes. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require
(a) that the Airport be operated for aeronautical uses during temporary periods
when snow, flood, or other climatic conditions interfere with such operation and
maintenance, or (b) repair, restoration or replacement of any structure or
facility which is substantially damaged or destroyed due to an act of God or
other condition or circumstances beyond the control of the grantee.
10
(8) That the grantee will: (a) furnish the FAA with annual or
special Airport financial and operational reports as may be reasonably requested
using either forms furnished by the FAA or in such manner as it elects so long
as the essential data are furnished, and (b) upon reasonable request of the FAA,
make available for inspection by any duly authorized representative of the FAA
the Airport and all Airport records and documents affecting the Airport,
including deeds, leases, operation and use agreements, regulations, and other
instruments and will furnish to the FAA a true copy of any such document which
may be reasonably requested.
(9) That the grantee will not enter into any action which
would operate to deprive it of any of the rights and powers necessary to perform
or comply with any or all of the covenants and conditions set forth herein
unless by such transaction the obligation to perform or comply with all such
covenants and conditions is assumed by another public agency found by the FAA to
be eligible as a public agency as defined in the Airport and Airway Improvement
Act of 1982 (P. L. 97-248), as amended, to assume such obligation and have the
power, authority, and financial resources to carry out all such obligations. If
an arrangement is made for management or operation of the Airport by any agency
or person other than the grantee, the grantee shall reserve sufficient rights
and authority to insure that such Airport will be operated and maintained in
accordance with these
11
covenants and conditions, any applicable Federal statute, and applicable
provisions of the Federal Aviation Regulations.
(10) That the grantee will at all times keep an up-to-date
airport layout map of the Airport at which the property described herein is
located, showing: (a) the boundaries of the Airport and all proposed additions
thereto, together with the boundaries of all off-site areas owned or controlled
by the grantee for airport purposes and proposed additions thereto; (b) the
location and nature of all existing and proposed airport facilities and
structures (such as runways, taxiways, aprons, terminal buildings, hangars, and
roads), including all proposed extensions and reductions of existing airport
facilities; (c) the location of all existing and proposed non-aviation areas and
all existing improvements thereon and uses made thereof. The airport layout map
and each amendment, revision or modification thereof, shall be subject to the
approval of the FAA; which approval shall be evidenced by the signature of a
duly authorized representative of the FAA on the face of the airport layout map.
The grantee will not make or permit the making of any changes or alterations in
the Airport or any of its facilities other than in conformity with the airport
layout map as so approved by the FAA, if such changes or alterations might
adversely affect the safety, utility, or efficiency of the Airport.
(11) That if at any time it is determined by the FAA that
there is any outstanding right or claim of right in or to
12
the airport property described herein, the existence of which creates an undue
risk of interference with the operation of the Airport or the performance or
compliance with covenants and conditions set forth herein, the grantee will, to
the extent practicable, acquire, extinguish, or modify such right or claim of
right in a manner acceptable to the FAA.
(12) That, as part of the consideration for the transfer, the
grantee covenants and agrees for itself, its successors and assigns, that: (a)
the program for or in connection with which the transfer is made will be
conducted in compliance with, and the grantee, its successors and assigns, will
comply with all requirements imposed by or pursuant to the regulations of the
United States Department of Transportation ("DOT") as in effect on the date of
the transfer (49 CFR Part 21) issued under the provisions of Title VI of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; (b) this covenant shall be subject in all
respects to the provisions of said regulations; (c) the grantee, its successors
and assigns, will promptly take and continue to take such action as may be
necessary to effectuate this covenant; (d) the United States shall have the
right to seek judicial enforcement of this covenant; (e) the grantee, its
successors and assigns, will: (i) obtain from any person, including any legal
entity, who, through contractual or other arrangements with the grantee, its
successors and assigns, is authorized to provide services or benefits under said
program, a written agreement pursuant to which such other person shall, with
respect to the service or benefits which he is
13
authorized to provide, undertake for himself the same obligations as those
imposed upon the grantee, it successors and assigns, by this covenant; (ii)
furnish the original of such agreement to the Administrator of the FAA or his or
her successor in function, upon his or her request therefor; and that this
covenant shall run with the land hereby conveyed, and shall in any event,
without regard to technical classification or designation, legal or otherwise,
be binding to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity for the benefit of,
and in favor of the grantor against the grantee, its successors, and assigns.
c. Subject to Xxxxx AFB Federal Facility Agreement. That the Airport
shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Xxxxx Air Force Base Federal
Facilities Agreement entered into April 24, 1991, among the Air Force, the New
Hampshire Department of Environmental Services ("NHDES"), and the United States
Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), as such agreement presently exists or
may be amended ("FFA," "Interagency Agreement" or "IAG"). The FFA shall be
binding on the grantee, its successors and assigns, and any subsequent
transferees.
d. Use by the Government. That the grantee will make available all
facilities of the Airport at which the property described herein is located or
developed with Federal aid, and all those usable for the landing and taking off
of aircraft, to the United States at all times, without charge, and for use by
aircraft of any agency of the Untied States in common with other
14
aircraft, except that if the use by aircraft of any agency of the United States
in common with other aircraft, is substantial, a reasonable share, proportional
to such use, of the cost of operating and maintaining facilities so used, may be
charged. Unless otherwise determined by the FAA, or otherwise agreed to by the
grantee and the using Federal Agency, substantial use of an airport by United
States aircraft will be considered to exist when operations of such aircraft are
in excess of those which, in the opinion of the FAA, would unduly interfere with
use of the landing area by other authorized aircraft or, that during any
calendar month: (1) either five (5) or more aircraft of any agency of the United
States are regularly based at the airport or on land adjacent thereto; or (2)
the total number of movements (counting each landing as a movement and each
take-off as a movement) of aircraft of any agency of the United States is 300 or
more; or (3) the gross accumulative weight of aircraft of any agency of the
United States using the airport (the total movements of such Federal aircraft
multiplied by gross certified weights thereof) is in excess of five million
pounds.
e. Reservations to the Government.
(1) That whenever so requested by the FAA, the grantee will
furnish without cost to the United States, for construction, operation and
maintenance of facilities for air traffic control activities, or weather
reporting activities or communication activities related to air traffic control,
such
15
areas of the property described herein or rights in buildings on the Airport, as
the FAA may consider necessary or desirable for construction at Federal expense
of space or facilities for such purposes, and the grantee will make available
such areas or any portion thereof for the purposes provided herein within four
(4) months after receipt of written request from the FAA, if such are or will be
available.
(2) That the Government will retain all right, title and
interest in the New Hampshire Air National Guard ("ANG") cantonment area as
described in Schedule A and shown on Schedule B. This reservation includes
rights of roadway access along roadways common to all of the grantee's tenants
and airport users and of access to or easements, or both for utilities required
to support the ANG mission. Such access, or easements, or both shall be mutually
agreed upon by the ANG and the grantee.
(3) That the Government reserves the right of access to those
portions of the Airport requiring environmental investigation or remediation
pursuant to the FFA. This reservation includes the right of access to and use
of, to the extent permitted by law, available utilities at reasonable cost to
the Government, and where applicable, at the same rates common to tenants at the
Airport. Upon compliance with the provisions of federal law allowing final
disposition of the Airport by deed, such portions of the Airport will be
conveyed to and accepted by Applicant by deed incorporating the applicable terms
and
16
conditions of this Application and any subsequent deeds or other instruments of
conveyance.
(4) That the grantee acknowledges its understanding that the
Air Force, EPA, and NHDES and their officers, agents, employees, contractors and
subcontractors, have the right (upon reasonable notice to the grantee and any
authorized occupant of the property) to enter upon the Airport for the purposes
enumerated below in subsections (4) (a) to (4) (d) inclusive and for such other
purposes consistent with the FFA:
(a) to conduct investigations and surveys, including,
where necessary, drilling, testpitting, borings and other activities related to
the Xxxxx Air Force Base Installation Restoration Program (Xxxxx AFB IRP) or the
FFA;
(b) to inspect field activities of the Air Force and its
contractors and subcontractors in implementing the Xxxxx AFB IRP or the FFA;
(c) to conduct any test or survey required by EPA or
NHDES relating to the implementation of the FFA or environmental conditions of
the property or to verify any data submitted to the EPA or NHDES by the Air
Force relating to the FFA or such conditions;
17
(d) to construct, operate, maintain, or undertake any
other response or remedial action as required or necessary under the Xxxxx AFB
IRP or the FFA, including, but not limited to monitoring xxxxx, pumping xxxxx,
and treatment facilities.
(5) That the grantee agrees to comply with the provisions of
any health or safety plan in effect under the IRP or the FFA during the course
of any of the above described response or remedial actions. Any inspection,
survey, investigation, or other response or remedial action will, to the extent
practicable, be coordinated with representatives designated by the grantee. The
grantee shall have no claim on account of such entries against the United States
or any officer, agent, employee, contractor, or subcontractor thereof.
(6) That the United States and any successor or successors in
interest in or to any remaining property owned or controlled by the Government
at Xxxxx AFB shall have the right of access to and from such property or any
portion thereof to the nearest public road or public way along Airport roadways
open to public use and the use of the roadways described in Schedule A Sections
11.5, 11.6, and 11.11, in common with other users of the Airport and all
necessary and convenient rights of access to such roadways from contiguous
parcels upon such reasonable terms and conditions as the grantee may impose.
18
(7) That upon transfer of the Utility Systems as described in
Schedule A, Section 11.12, to the grantee or any successor in interest, the
grantee or such successor in interest shall continue to supply, or shall arrange
for the continued supply of, all such utilities (except for heat) supplied by
the current systems to the United States or its successor or successors in
interest in or to any remaining property owned or controlled by the United
States at Xxxxx AFB and to the present or future owners of any property at Xxxxx
AFB not described or identified in Schedule A, Sections I or II, provided,
however, that: (i) the grantee shall exercise reasonable efforts to accommodate
any requests by the Air Force or any successors in interest for increased levels
of service, but shall have no obligation to extend or enlarge the Utility
Systems or their capacities beyond the limits or capacities as of the date of
such transfer; (ii) the grantee shall have no obligation to maintain secondary
lines within the system; and (iii) the Air Force or its successors shall be
responsible for any hook-up from their property to the Utility Systems,
including the hook-up of separate meters. Nothing herein shall require the
grantee or utility suppliers to continue to utilize any existing Utility
Systems, provided that the grantee makes adequate provision, or requires the
applicable utility supplier to make adequate provision, for a transition to an
alternate system or systems that minimizes to the extent practicable any
disruption to utility services to the Air Force or its successors. All utilities
supplied to the Air Force or its successors under this provision shall be at
rates that do
19
not exceed those charged comparable users. The supply of utilities required
hereunder may be interrupted in order to make necessary repairs or alterations
and the grantee shall not be responsible for any interruption or suspension of
any utility services other than as set forth herein. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Application, the grantee may impose restrictions on any
hook-ups or connections to the Utility Systems that the grantee reasonably
determines may exceed the capacity of any such Utility System.
f. Miscellaneous. That the grantee does hereby release the
Government, and will take whatever action may be required by the Administrator
of the FAA or his or her successor in function, to assure the complete release
of the Government from any and all liability the Government may be under for
restoration or other damage under any lease or other agreement covering the use
by the Government of the Airport, or part thereof, owned, controlled or operated
by the grantee, upon which, adjacent to which, or in connection with which, any
property transferred by this instrument was located or used. However, no such
release shall be construed as depriving the grantee of any right it may
otherwise have to receive reimbursement under Section 17 of the Federal Airport
Act for the necessary rehabilitation or repair of public airports heretofore, or
hereafter substantially damaged by any federal agency. This provision shall not
be construed to require the grantee to release the United States from any
liability it may have incurred under Federal or state
20
environmental laws for any act or omission of the United States, or its
officers, agents, or employees, at Xxxxx AFB.
g. Reservations and Restrictions.
(1) That in the event that any of the aforesaid terms,
conditions, reservations, or restrictions are not met, observed, or complied
with by the grantee or any subsequent transferee, whether caused by the legal
inability of said grantee or subsequent transferee to perform any of the
obligations herein set out or otherwise, the title, right of possession and all
other rights transferred by this instrument to the grantee, or any portion
thereof, shall at the option of the grantor revert to the grantor in its
then-existing condition sixty (60) days following the date upon which demand to
this effect is made in writing by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her
successor in function, unless within said sixty (60) days such default or
violation shall have been cured and all such terms, conditions, reservations and
restrictions shall have been met, observed, or complied with, or if the grantee
shall have commenced the actions necessary to bring it into compliance with such
terms, conditions, reservations and restrictions in accordance with a compliance
schedule approved by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in
function, in which event said reversion shall not occur and title, right of
possession, and all other rights transferred hereby, except such, if any, as
shall have previously reverted, shall remain vested in the grantee, its
transferees, successors and assigns.
21
(2) That any of the property included in the Airport may be
successively transferred to successors and assigns of the grantee only with the
approval of the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in function to
the extent required by the provisions of subsection 5b(4) hereof, with the
proviso that any such subsequent transferee assumes all the obligations imposed
herein unless released in writing therefrom by the Administrator of the FAA or
his or her successor in function. However, the Administrator of the FAA or his
or her successor in function shall have no authority to release the grantee or
any subsequent transferee from any of the provisions of the FFA or the historic
preservation covenant set out below in Section 5m.
(3) That, if the construction as covenants of any of the
foregoing reservations and restrictions recited herein as covenants or the
application of the same as covenants in any particular instance is held invalid,
the particular reservation or restrictions in question shall be construed
instead merely as conditions, the breach of which the United States may exercise
its option to cause the title, interest, right of possession, and all other
rights transferred to the grantee, or any portion thereof, to revert to it, and
the application of such reservations or restrictions as covenants in any other
instance and the construction of the remainder of such reservations and
restrictions as covenants shall not be affected thereby.
22
h. Grantee's Obligations. That the grantee shall take title subject
to such rights, if any, as third persons may have in the Airport at the date of
acceptance of this Application by virtue of any grant from the United States or
others and shall assume all duties, obligations, and liabilities of the United
States or any agency thereof thereunder and hold the same harmless from all
claims arising from such transfer of title. This provision shall not be
construed to release the United States from any liability it may have incurred
under Federal or state environmental laws for any act or omission of the United
States, or its officers, agents, or employees, at Xxxxx AFB, or to require the
grantee to hold the United States harmless from any claim which may arise
therefrom.
i. Mineral Rights. That subsurface rights to minerals or other
interests included in the real property transferred for airport purposes may not
be exploited in such a way as will interfere with the efficient operation of the
Airport.
j. United States Rights. That the United States reserves all right,
title, and interest in and to all property of whatsoever nature not specifically
transferred, together with right of removal thereof from the Airport within a
reasonable time, which shall not be construed to mean any period less than one
(1) year after the date of the instrument of transfer. During such period, the
United States, its agents, customers, transferees, and successors shall have the
right of ingress to and
23
egress from the Airport for the purposes of using, disposing of by sale or
otherwise, and removing such property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon its
receipt of written notice from the grantee, the Air Force shall have sixty (60)
days in which to remove its property from the following facilities:
Facility No. 26 NCO Club
Facility No. 28 Bowling Center
Facility No. 38 Recreation Center
Facility No. 44 Temporary Living Facility
Facility No. 120 Maintenance
k. Payment in Cash of Taxes, Assessments, etc. That the grantee
shall make payment in cash to the Air Force of an amount of money equivalent to
the pro rata amount, as of the date of acceptance of the bid of the grantee, of
all taxes, assessments, and similar charges made against the property conveyed,
in instances where the particular federal agency holding the property is liable
for the payment of such taxes, assessments, or charges. This provision shall not
be construed to require the grantee to release the United States from any
liability it may have incurred under Federal or state environmental laws for any
act or omission of the United States, or its officers, agents, or employees, at
Xxxxx AFB.
l. Waiver of Any Existing Option. That the grantee must obtain for
the benefit of the United States, in form
24
satisfactory to it, a waiver of any existing option granted to purchase the
Airport or any portion thereof.
m. Preservation Covenant for Historic Property. That the grantee
hereby covenants on behalf of itself, its successors and assigns, to preserve
and maintain those portions of the Newington Town Forest (as it was described
when listed in the National Register of Historic Places on December 9, 1991, the
"Newington Center Historic District (Boundary Increase)") located within the
Airport in the County of Rockingham, State of New Hampshire ("Forest Areas"),
more particularly described in Schedule A and shown on Schedule B, in accordance
with the recommended approaches in The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for
Historic Preservation Projects, specifically "General Standards" numbers one
through four and "Standards for Preservation" numbers nine and ten as published
in the Federal Register, Volume 48, No. 190, pages 44737 and 44738 as part of
The Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and
Historic Preservation ("Standards and Guidelines") in order to preserve and
enhance those qualities that make the Newington Town Forest eligible for
inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Copies of the Nomination
to the National Register of Historic Places and the Standards and Guidelines are
attached as Schedule C and made a part of this Application. This covenant shall
be a binding servitude upon the Forest Areas and shall be deemed to run with the
land. This covenant is binding on the grantee, its successors and assigns, in
25
perpetuity. The restrictions, stipulations and covenants contained herein shall
be inserted by the grantee, its successors and assigns, verbatim or by express
reference in any deed or other legal instrument by which it divests itself of
either the fee simple title or any lesser estate in the Forest Areas, or any
part thereof.
(1) No construction, alteration, remodeling, demolition,
disturbance of the ground surface, or other action shall be undertaken or
permitted to be undertaken on the Forest Areas that would materially affect the
integrity or the appearance of the attributes described above without the prior
written permission of the New Hampshire State Historic Preservation Officer
("New Hampshire SHPO"). Should the New Hampshire SHPO object to the proposed
treatment within thirty (30) days of receiving the request and cannot resolve
the differences, the grantee shall request the Advisory Council on Historic
Preservation ("Council") to resolve the dispute. The Council will provide
comments within fifteen (15) days of receiving the request from the grantee. The
grantee shall consider the Council's comments in reaching its decision on the
treatment. The grantee will report its decision to the Council, and if
practicable, it will do so prior to initiating the treatment.
(2) Upon acquisition of any standing historic structure, the
grantee will take prompt action to secure all of them from the elements,
vandalism, or arson and will make any
26
emergency stabilization. The grantee will, to the extent practicable, make every
effort to retain or reuse the historic structures.
(3) Should any archeological site be discovered during any
project activities, the grantee will stop work promptly and obtain the comments
of the New Hampshire SHPO regarding appropriate treatment of the site. The final
mitigation plan shall be approved by the New Hampshire SHPO.
(4) The grantee will allow the New Hampshire SHPO or his or
her designee, at all reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice to the
grantee, to inspect the Forest Areas in order to ascertain whether the grantee
is complying with the conditions of this preservation covenant.
(5) The grantee will provide the New Hampshire SHPO and the
Council with a written summary of actions taken to implement the provisions of
this preservation covenant within one (1) year after the effective date of the
transfer of the Forest Areas. Similar reports will be submitted to the New
Hampshire SHPO and the Council each January thereafter until the reuse plan has
been completed.
(6) Failure of the New Hampshire SHPO to exercise any right or
remedy granted under this covenant shall not have the effect of waiving or
limiting the exercise by the New Hampshire
27
SHPO of any other right or remedy or the invocation of such right or remedy at
any other time.
(7) The grantee may, with the prior written approval of the
New Hampshire SHPO, modify for good cause any or all of the foregoing
restrictions. Prior to such action, the grantee will notify the Council of the
proposed modification and allow them thirty (30) days to comment.
n. Protection of Wetlands. That the grantee will minimize the
destruction, loss, or degradation of wetlands in the those areas of Parcels D
and E shown and described on Figure 3-23 and in pages 3-88 to 3-93 inclusive
of the FEIS and the ROD and Supplemental ROD and identified in Schedule A and
shown on Schedule D hereto ("Designated Wetlands"). Before locating new
construction in the Designated Wetlands, the grantee shall find in writing that
there is no practicable alternative for such new construction and that the
construction includes all practicable measures to minimize harm to the
Designated Wetlands from such use. In making that finding the grantee may take
into account economic, environmental and other pertinent factors. In addition,
the grantee shall provide an opportunity for early public review of any plan or
proposal for new construction in the Designated Wetlands in such areas. For
purposes of this covenant, the term "new construction" includes structures,
facilities, draining, dredging, channelizing, filling, diking, impounding, and
related activities.
28
o. Conditions on Transfer of Certain Parcels. That the transfer of
that portion of the Airport which is adjacent to the Xxxxx Golf Course and is
described as Parcel Z in the ROD and Supplemental ROD ("Parcel E") shall be
subject to the following conditions:
(1) In the event that the grantee does not purchase the Xxxxx
Golf Course, further described as Parcel F in the ROD and Supplemental ROD
("Golf Course"), and the grantee determines that the further development and use
of the Airport construction of a secondary roadway access and/or railroad access
through playing greens, fairways and holes along the easterly and southerly
portions of the Golf Course is necessary, the Air Force or its
successor-in-interest agrees to transfer in fee such portions of the Golf Course
as the parties agree are necessary to allow grantee to construct such roadways
and/or railroads. As consideration for such transfer, the grantee agrees to
transfer to the Air Force or its successor-in-interest such portions of Parcel
E as the parties agree are necessary to replace any playing greens, fairways, or
holes destroyed or rendered unusable by said construction. In addition, grantee
agrees to undertake or pay to the Air Force or its successor-in-interest all
reasonable construction costs, i.e., materials and labor, directly incurred in
connection with the replacement of such greens, fairways, or holes. The
foregoing covenant shall run with the land associated with Parcel E and the Golf
Course.
29
(2) The grantee agrees that in the event that it does not
purchase the Xxxxx Golf Course, the grantee will not undertake the construction
of any buildings or structures within any portion of Parcel E prior to the
commencement of construction of the roadway and/or railroad access and the
replacement of any playing greens, fairways or holes as set forth in subsection
5.0 (1) above. In addition, for the same time period the grantee agrees to use
the land comprising Parcel E only as a golf course or open space.
6. Schedule E, attached hereto and made a part of this Application,
contains a notice of hazardous substances that have been stored for one year or
more, or known to have been released, or disposed of, on certain portions of the
real property, and the date(s) that such storage, release, or disposal took
place, as required by Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 373, and 42
U.S.C. 9620(h)(1). Section 373.3(b) requires that the following statement be
prominently displayed: The information contained in this notice is required
under the authority of regulations promulgated under Section 120(h) of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Liability, and Compensation Act (CERCLA or
"Superfund"). 42 U.S.C. section 9620(h).
7. From the time the Air Force gives notice of acceptance of the
Application, the Applicant shall bear all risks and shall bear any and all
losses sustained by reason of damage due to
30
casualty that may be suffered by the Airport and shall bear any and all losses
associated therewith. Notwithstanding any such losses or damage, each and all of
the provisions of the agreement formed by acceptance of this Application shall
remain unimpaired and in full force and effect.
8. Upon receipt of Notice of Acceptance of the Application by the Air
Force, the Applicant may, at its option, and upon notification to and approval
of the Air Force and the FAA, immediately enter into possession of the Airport
and use, operate, and maintain the same subject to, and in accordance with such
terms and conditions as may be agreed upon by the Parties in the Related Lease
and all of the terms and conditions hereinabove set out. In addition, for the
period prior to final disposition of the Airport by deed conveying legal title
to the Applicant, the exercise of the right of immediate possession shall be
subject to and in accordance with the additional provisions and conditions
contained in Sections 8a to 8g inclusive. In the event of any inconsistency
between the provisions of Sections 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e or 8f of the Application and
Acceptance and any provisions of the Lease, the provisions of the Lease will
control. In the event of any inconsistency between any provisions (other than
those contained in Sections 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e and 8f) of the Application and
Acceptance and any provisions of the Lease, the provisions of the Application
and Acceptance will control. In the event of any conflict between the provisions
of Section 8 and any provisions of the FFA, the provisions of the FFA shall
control.
31
a. Applicant Shall Comply with all Pertinent Rules, Etc. The
operation of the Airport shall be subject to such regulations as may be
prescribed by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in function
from time to time, and the Applicant shall comply with all pertinent laws,
ordinances, rules, orders, or other applicable regulations and shall hold the
United States harmless from any liability or penalty which may be imposed by
reason of any asserted violation thereof by the Applicant.
b. Limitation on Major Structural Chances. The Applicant shall not
make, permit, or suffer any additions, improvements, or alterations to the

Describe present and historic physical appearance.
Although the Newington Center Historic District nomination listed in
1987 discussed the history of the entire Town Forest, it only nominated
that portion of the forest which lies outside of Xxxxx Air Force Base.
This nomination to increase the boundary specifically addresses the
section of the Newington Town Forest located within the Base boundary,
which was previously unevaluated. In 1952 the United States government
acquired approximately 99 acres of the 000 xxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx Forest.
Although it was widely believed by Newington townspeople that the original
forest land on the base property was all but cleared, this has recently
proven to be incorrect. Instead, the Air Force cleared approximately 30
acres of the forest for runway construction soon after it acquired the
land, but left the remaining 69 acre parcel in a natural state. In fact,
over the years, this forest land has been maintained by the Air Force with
appropriate forestry management practices and thus possesses a high level
of integrity.
This 69 acre section of the Town Forest which is the subject of this
boundary increase is an irregularly shaped parcel with an east-west
orientation, located to the south of the 1987 National Register District.
The Forest parcel is bounded on the west by Nimble Hill Road, which
becomes Short Street within the base territory. Much of the forest is
bounded by dry stone walls, apparently erected during 18th and 19th
centuries. A small section of barbed wire encloses the southeast corner of
the parcel. Barbed wire also runs along the northern boundary of the base
which also acts as the northern boundary for the parcel being nominated.
Originally this parcel would have been continuous with the portion of town
forest land described in the 1987 nomination. A buffer of additional
forest land surrounds the town forest property. With the exception of a
fire training area which abuts the southwest corner of the town forest,
the forested buffer is no less than 200 feet wide. An aircraft parking
apron is located to the south of the town forest with a runway further
southwest. Air Force foresters have tried to keep a buffer of larger trees
along the runway to prevent wind damage within the forest.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The forest is bisected by two roads. New Road, now a pine-needle
covered dirt road, was laid out in an east-west direction from just north
of the Parsonage (see building #7 - original 1987 nomination) in 1896.
Merrimac Drive, a paved, two lane road was laid out by the Air Force soon
after it acquired the property and extends from the union of Nimble Hill
Road and Short Street in a northeast arc across the forest parcel.
Seasonally wet areas, associated with the intermittent Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx,
are located throughout the forest land. Land elevations range from roughly
70 feet to a height of 99 feet within the forest. With the exception of
the Stone School, included as building #8 in the 1987 nomination, and the
stone walls which bound the forest, there are no manmade structures within
the forest bounds.
In terms of tree species, the town forest is dominated by the white
pine. Lesser amounts of hemlock, also coniferous, are found especially in
wet areas. Indigenous hardwood species most commonly found in the forest
are white ash, hornbeam, black birch, American beech, red oak and shagbark
hickory. The forest and base are also notable for containing some of the
best white oak in the seacoast region. Most of the region's white oak
stands were decimated in World War I and used as planking for ships. In
various areas in the forest, new growth of hardwood such as sweet birch,
beech and white oak are interspersed in the understory of the white pine
and are generally allowed by foresters to remain until they threaten the
pine from a forest management standpoint. For although these hardwoods may
be hospitable to various types of wildlife, they often prove
counter-productive to the establishment of a good pine forest by
encouraging tree growth that is less perfect and thus less desirable from
an economic view, and may demote a tree's value from saw wood to pulp.
The town forest is intensively managed by the U.S. Air Force under a
multiple use concept, the main objectives being timber production,
recreation and wildlife management, objectives which are consistent with
the original intent of the town forest. A large portion of the land has
been managed to improve cutting. Timber sales took place in the town
forest in 1983, 1986 and 1990 removed a total of over 200,000 board feet
of sawtimber, predominately white pine, as well as 53.5 cords of firewood
and 150 tons of softwood pulp. Base foresters have limited the use of
heavy machinery and timber landings are reseeded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some additional cutting takes place under the base firewood program
whereby base personnel are permitted to conduct limited tree cutting
according to forester specifications. Wood roads within the forest have
found additional use by snowmobilers and cross country skiers. Overall,
the impact of man on the historic integrity of the site is negligible and
much wildlife, including deer and turkey continue to inhabit the forest.
As indicated on the attached sketch map, base foresters have divided
the town forest parcel into twelve sections or stands, differentiated by
tree species, size, stand height and stocking. A brief description of the
stands follows.
Stand #1: This area at the northwestern corner of the forest is
notable as an area of old growth pine within the forest. It primarily
consists of large sawtimber white pine, measuring more than 13 inches in
diameter and rising to heights of over 60 feet. The stand measures
approximately 2.5 acres and is characterized by medium stocking of 40 to
70%.
Stands #2 & #3: Bisected by Merrimac Drive, these white pine stands
in the western part of the forest are primarily smaller sawtimber, 9 to 13
inches in diameter and more than 60 feet tall. Each stand measures about
5.0 acres and is well stocked with more than 70% crown closure. This area
is apparently part of the 'Pine Plantation' section planted in 1915. The
mortality of the trees was high because they were planted close together.
Stand #4: This stand consists of the north-central portion of the
forest, bounded by the base boundary line and Merrimac Drive. Mixed
hardwoods dominate, approximately 40-60 feet tall and 9-13 inches in
diameter. This 4.2 acre area is well stocked with a crown closure of more
than 70%.
Stand #5: This narrow 2 acre stand at the northern edge of the
forest, east of Merrimac Drive, is comprised of mixed hardwood and
softwood. The tree diameter at 5-9 inches is smaller than that found in
most of the forest. The stand height is 40-60 feet tall and of medium
stocking (40-70%).
Stand #6: This is a 5.6 acre stand, bounded on the northeast by
Merrimac Drive and southwest by New Road. The stand is a mixture of white
pine and mixed hardwoods of large sawtimber size, greater than 13 inches
in diameter. The stand rises more than 60 feet tall and is medium stocked.

Section number 7 Page 4 NEWINGTON CENTER HISTORIC DISTRICT
--- --- (Boundary Increase)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stand #7: This wet area to the north of New Road proves a natural
habitat for hemlock as well as white pines. The 5.3 acre area is well
covered and consists of large sawtimber/poles at heights in excess of 60
feet.
Stand #8: The largest of the stands in the forest, this 16.9 acre
area is bounded by Merrimac Drive and New Road to the north and the base
boundary to the south. It consists primarily of white pines, large
sawtimber/poles, rising to heights over 60 feet with medium coverage.
Stand #9: Containing the highest land elevation in the forest (99
feet), this small, 1.6 acre young white pine stand is located on the south
side of New Road and consists of seedlings and saplings ranging from 20 to
40 feet tall, with medium coverage. Also notable are the few American
chestnut trees located in this stand. The American chestnut tree has been
largely extinct since 1904 when blight wiped out most of the species.
These chestnuts, as is common, unfortunately bear sterile fruit.
Stand #10: This is a 3.6 acre stand of uneven age, consisting of
hardwood, oak, beech and birch with an understory of pine. The tree size
is primarily that of small sawtimber, 9 to 13 inches in diameter. The
medium stocked stand displays a variety of tree heights.
Stand #11: Located at the southeast corner of the forest parcel,
this 1.3 acre stand displays white pine and mixed hardwood in excess of 60
feet tall and 9 to 13 inches in diameter. Stocking is good,
[ILLEGIBLE].
Stand #12: This is a large 11.9 acre white pine and mixed
[ILLEGIBLE] located in the northeast part of the forest, consisting of
large sawtimber/poles in excess of 60 feet tall and good stocking, in
excess of 70%.

State significance of property, and justify criteria, criteria considerations,
and areas and periods of significance noted above.
The 69 acre Newington Town Forest parcel which is the subject of
this boundary increase is eligible for the National Register of Historic
Places under criterion A (for settlement) because it represents the
balance of the surviving common land already included as contributing to
the Newington Center Historic District listed on the Register in 1987. It
possesses a high level of integrity of location, setting, materials,
feeling and association. The town forest property is significant, not only
as common land set aside beginning in 1840 but also as open space
retaining the Center's landscape and setting which are integral to the
district. Although town ownership of the land was interrupted by the
acquisition of the land for Xxxxx Air Force Base in 1932, the historic use
of the land as forest has continued to the present. In fact, the forest
has continued to be held in public ownership for public benefit and under
the stewardship of the base foresters its historic integrity has been
carefully maintained and enhanced.
Newington's Town Forest has been referred to as the first town
forest in the country although published reference to this or other early
forests has found to be lacking. As has been discussed in the 1987
nomination, in 1640 much of the land which was to become a community
forest was reserved as common ground or unallotted lands for the settlers
on Bloody Point, then a section of Dover. Part of the land was cleared for
pasture and part was held as timberland to be used for building and for
fuel. At a public town meeting at the meetinghouse on Dover Neck May 22,
1710 approximately 50-60 acres was formally set aside with the intent of
preserving some of the town's valuable natural resources from development
and overuse. This action is generally considered to be the beginning of
the Newington Town Forest. (1)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historically the town forest can be divided into three sections,
known as the Church Lot, the Parsonage Lot and the Xxxxxxx Lot. The Church
Lot, lying west of what is now Nimble Hill Road, originally contained 42
acres. Most of this area is contained in the 1987 Newington Center
National Register District; the southern portion of the Church Lot was
part of the property acquired by the Air Force in 1952 and subsequently
destroyed for a runway.
The 69 acre town forest [ILLEGIBLE] includes sections of both the
Parsonage and Xxxxxxx Lots. The Parsonage Lot, consisted of twenty acres
of "pitch plains" granted to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx in 1689. The lot was
purchased by the Town of Newington along with the Old Parsonage (building
#7, original 1987 nomination) in 1765 for the minister. The town at that
time already owned about 20 acres adjacent which was also common land.
This area generally corresponds to stands 1, 2, 3, 8 and 9 as delineated
on the attached sketch map. During the 19th century, the Town's selectmen
managed this woodlot, giving fuel to the town poor, allowing citizens to
cut their winter supply of wood and selling the growth on the lot to fund
town projects such as construction of a town library, water system and
school. Portions of stands 2 & 3 were cut in 1912, the area was reseeded
with 8,000 trees in 1915. Portions of stand 8 were cut in 1894 and parts
of stands 7 and 9 were cut in 1919. (2)
The Xxxxxxx Lot generally refers to the thirty acres north of New
Road or stands 4, 5, 6, 7 and 12 on the sketch map. The Town apparently
held and managed this forest since Revolutionary days. The first record of
cuttings in this area appeared in 1874 when the town voted to sell timber
rights on twenty four acres to pay off the Civil War debt. In 1919 the
growth on the balance of six acres of the lot was sold. In 1922 about 200
cords of wood were sold. The Report of the Forestry Commission in 1924
notes that "at the present time the cut-over lands are coming back to pine
with a few blocks of mature pine and hardwoods." (3)

VERBAL BOUNDARY DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION
The boundary of the nominated district is increased to include that
historic acreage which survives from the Newington Town Forest within the
Xxxxx Air Force Base and which is eligible for listing in the National
Register of Historic Places. The area south of the 1987 district and to
the west of Short Street purposely has been excluded from the district
boundary due to the clearing of the former woodland for a runway. The
remaining town forest property is bounded on the west by Nimble Hill
Road/Short Street, on the north by the Air Force Base boundary which is
marked by a barbed wire fence and on the remaining sides by a stone wall.
Boundaries are sufficient to convey the original context and to protect
it. Boundaries are indicated on the attached sketch map.

[ILLEGIBLE] original data in the form of field notes, photographs, and other
materials.
Some individual property information, such as specific locational data,
may be highly sensitive to disclosure, because of the threat of vandalism. If
the objectives of the documentation effort are such that a report containing
confidential information such as specific site locations or information on
religious practices is necessary, it may be appropriate to prepare a separate
report for public distribution. The additional report should summarize that
information that is not under restricted access in a format most useful to the
expected groups of potential users. Peer reviews of draft reports is recommended
to ensure that state-of-the-art technical reports are produced.
Availability: Results must be made available to the full range of
potential users. This can be accomplished through a variety of means including
publication of results in monographs and professionals journals and distribution
of the report to libraries or technical clearinghouses such as the National
Technical Information Service in Springfield, Virginia.
Curation
Archeological specimens and records are part of the documentary record of
an archeological site. They must be curated for future use in research,
interpretation, preservation, and resource management activities. Curation of
important archeological specimens and records should be provided for in the
development of any archeological program or project.
Archeological specimens and records that should be curated are those that
embody the information important to history and prehistory. They include
artifacts and their associated documents, photographs, maps, and field notes;
materials of an environmental nature such as bones, shells, soil and sediment
samples, wood, seeds, pollen, and their associated records; and the products and
associated records of laboratory procedures such as thin sections, and sediment
fractions that result from the analysis of archeological data.
Satisfactory curation occurs when:
1. Curation facilities have adequate space, facilities, and professional
personnel.
2. Archeological specimens are maintained so that their information values
are not lost through deterioration, and records are maintained to a professional
archival standard.
3. Curated collections are accessible to qualified researchers within a
[ILLEGIBLE] requested and
4. Collections are available for interpretive purposes, subject to
reasonable security precautions.

General Standards for Historic Preservation Projects
The following general standards apply to all treatments undertaken on
historic properties listed in the National Register.
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a
property that requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site
and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building,
structure, or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or
alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should
be avoided when possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of
their own time. Alterations which have no historical basis and which seek to
create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which have taken place in the course of time are evidence of
the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its
environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right,
and this significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive architectural features or examples of skilled craftsmanship
which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with
sensitivity.
[ILLEGIBLE] shall be repaired rather than replaced wherever possible. In the
event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being
replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities.
Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on
accurate descriptions of features substantiated by historical, physical, or
pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of
different architectural elements from other buildings or structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the
gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will
damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and preserve
archeological resources affected by or adjacent to, any acquisition,
stabilization, preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, or reconstruction
project.
Specific Standards for Historic Preservation Projects
The following specific standards for each treatment are to be used in
conjunction with the eight general standards and, in each case, begin with
number 9. For example, in evaluating acquisition projects, include the eight
general standards plus the four specific standards listed under standards for
Acquisition. The specific standards differ from those published for use in
Historic Preservation Fund grant-in-aid projects (38 CFR Part 68) in that they
discuss more fully the treatment of archeological properties.
Standards for Acquisition
9. Careful consideration shall be given to the type and extent of property
rights which are required to assure the preservation of the historic resource.
The preservation objectives shall determine the exact property rights to be
acquired.
10. Properties shall be acquired in fee simple when absolute ownership is
required to insure their preservation.
11. The purchase of less-than-fee-simple interests, such as open space or
facade easements, shall undertaken when a limited interest achieves the
preservation objective.
12. Every reasonable effort shall be made to acquire sufficient property
with the historic resource to protect its historical, archeological,
architectural or cultural significance.
44738 Federal Register / Vol. 48 No. 190 / Thursday, September 29, 1983 /
Notices
================================================================================
Standard for Protection
9. Before applying protective measures which are generally of a temporary
nature and imply future historic preservation work, an analysis of the actual or
anticipated threats to the property shall be made.
10. Protection shall safeguard the physical condition or environment of a
property or archeological site from further deterioration or damage caused by
weather or other natural, animal, or human intrusions.
11. If any historic material or architectural features are removed, they
shall be properly recorded and, if possible, stored for future study or reuse.
Standards for Stabilization
9. Stabilization shall reestablish the structural stability of a property
through the reinforcement of loadbearing members or by arresting deterioration
leading to structural failure. Stabilization shall also reestablish weather
resistant conditions for a property.
10. Stabilization shall be accomplished in such a manner that it detracts
as little as possible from the property's appearance and significance. When
reinforcement is required to reestablish structural stability, such work shall
be concealed wherever possible so as not to intrude upon or detract from the
aesthetic and historical or archeological quality of the property, except where
concealment would result in the alteration or destruction of historically or
archeologically significant material or spaces. Accurate documentation of
stabilization procedures shall be kept and made available for future needs.
11. Stabilization work that will result in ground disturbance shall be
preceded by sufficient archeological investigation to determine whether
significant subsurface features or artifacts will be affected. Recovery,
curation and documentation of archeological features and specimens shall be
undertaken in accordance with appropriate professional methods and techniques.
Standards for Preservation
9. Preservation shall maintain the existing form, integrity, and materials
of a building structure, or site. Archeological sites shall be preserved
undisturbed whenever feasible and practical. Substantial reconstruction or
restoration of lost features generally are not included in a preservation
undertaking.
10. Preservation shall include techniques of arresting or retarding the
deterioration of a property through a program of ongoing maintenance.
11. Use of destructive techniques, such as archeological excavation, shall
be limited to providing sufficient information for research, interpretation and
management needs.
Standards for Rehabilitation
9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing
properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not
destroy significant historic, architectural, or cultural material and such
design is compatible with the size, scale, color, material, and character of the
property, neighborhood, or environment.
10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be
done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations were to be removed
in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be
unimpaired.
Standards for Restoration
9. Every reasonable effort shall be made to use a property for is
originally intended purpose or to provide a compatible use that will require
minimum alteration to the property and its environment.
10. Reinforcement required for structural stability or the installation of
protective or code required mechanical systems shall be concealed wherever
possible so as not to intrude or detract from the property's aesthetic and
historical qualities, except where concealment would result in the alteration or
destruction of historically significant materials or spaces.
11. Restoration work such as the demolition of non-contributing additions
that will result in ground or structural disturbance shall be preceded by
sufficient archeological investigation to determine whether significant
subsurface or structural features or artifacts will be affected. Recovery,
curation and documentation of archeological features and specimens shall be
undertaken in accordance with appropriate professional methods and techniques.
Standards for Reconstruction
9. Reconstruction of a part or all of a property shall be undertaken only
when such work is essential to reproduce a significant missing feature in a
historic district or scene, and when a contemporary design solution is not
acceptable. Reconstruction of archeological sites generally is not appropriate.
10. Reconstruction of all or a part of a historic property shall be
appropriate when the reconstruction is essential for understanding and
interpreting the value of a historic district, or when no other building,
structure, object, or landscape feature with the same associative value has
survived and sufficient historical or archeological documentation exists to
insure an accurate reproduction of the original.
11. The reproduction of missing elements accomplished with new materials
shall duplicate the composition, design, color, texture, and other visual
qualities of the missing element. Reconstruction of missing architectural or
archeological features shall be based upon accurate duplication of original
features substantiated by physical or documentary evidence rather than upon
conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural features from
other buildings.
12. Reconstruction of a building or structure on an original site shall be
preceded by a thorough archeological investigation to locate and identify all
subsurface features and artifacts. Recovery, curation and documentation of
archeological features and specimens shall be undertaken in accordance with
professional methods and techniques.
13. Reconstruction shall include measures to preserve any remaining
original fabric, including foundations, subsurface, and ancillary elements. The
reconstruction of missing elements. The reconstruction of missing elements and
features shall be done in such a manner that the essential form and integrity of
the original surviving features are unimpaired.
Secretary of the Interior Guidelines for Historic Preservation Projects
The guidelines for the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic
Preservation Projects, not included here because of their length, may be
obtained separately from the National Park Service.
Professional Qualifications Standards
The following requirements are those used by the National Park Service,
and have been previously published in the Code of Federal Regulations, 36 CFR
Part 61. The qualifications define minimum education and experience required to
perform identification, evaluation, registration, and treatment activities. In
some cases, additional areas or levels of expertise may be needed, depending on
the complexity of the task and the nature of the historic properties involved.
In the following definitions, a year of full-time professional experience need
not consist of a continuous year of fulltime work but

requires the Air Force to identify and disclose all known storage for one year
or more, release, or disposal of hazardous substances prior to transfer of real
property to which it applies. Attached to this schedule are tables which contain
the necessary data to meet this notification requirement in so far as it relates
to storage, release, or disposal of hazardous substances.
Table 1 reports the storage of hazardous substances at the facilities located in
the area of conveyance at Xxxxx AFB. There is no documentation of releases or
disposals at these facilities therefore these two items are not included in
Table 1.
Table 3 reports the releases and/or disposals that took place at Installation
Restoration Program (IRP) Sites within the area of conveyance. These sites are
as follows:
Site No. Site Name (Abbr.)

Many of the releases and/or disposals at these IRP sites occurred numerous years
ago and actual detailed records of these releases and/or disposals do not exist
other than the results of investigations conducted as part of the IRP. These
sites are currently in the Site Investigation and/or Remedial Investigation
process to determine the actual extent of contamination associated with them.
Feasibility Studies will be conducted for those sites which undergo remedial
investigations. Time tables for these actions are contained in the Xxxxx AFB
Federal Facilities Agreement (FFA). Additional information about releases at
these sites is on file with the Air Force at Xxxxx AFB, Building [ILLEGIBLE].

DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE
LEASE
OF PROPERTY ON FORMER XXXXX AIR FORCE BASE, NEW HAMPSHIRE
THIS LEASE ("Lease") is made between the Secretary of the Air Force, on
behalf of the United States of America ("Government" or "Air Force") and the
Xxxxx Development Authority, an authority established under New Hampshire RSA
12-G, with a place of business at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxxxx,
Xxx Xxxxxxxxx ("Lessee" or "PDA"). (The Government and the Lessee may be
referred to jointly as the "Parties.")
Recitals
A. The PDA desires to establish a civil airport facility on a portion of
the lands comprising the former Xxxxx Air Force Base, New Hampshire ("Xxxxx
AFB") and has applied to the Air Force for a public benefit transfer of such
lands with improvements thereon, together with certain related personal
property, under Section 13(g) of the Surplus Property Act of 1944 ("SPA"), as
amended (50 App. U.S.C. 1622(g)) ("Application for Airport Public Benefit
Transfer").
B. The Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") has
determined, in accordance with Section 13(g)(1) of the
SPA (50 App. U.S.C. 1622(g)(1)), that the property identified in the PDA
Application for Airport Public Benefit Transfer is essential, suitable, or
desirable for a public airport and has approved the PDA Application for Airport
Public Benefit Transfer.
C. The Air Force has determined that the property identified in the PDA
Application for Airport Public Benefit Transfer is excess and has approved and,
pursuant to its authority under the Base Closure and Realignment Act, P. L.
100-526 ("BCRA"), to dispose of the real property and related personal property
comprising the former Xxxxx AFB, accepted the PDA Application for Airport Public
Benefit Transfer.
D. Upon its compliance with the requirements of Section 120 of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as
amended (42 U.S.C. 9620), the Government intends to make final disposition of
the property identified in the PDA Application for Airport Public Benefit
Transfer, subject to certain reservations, restrictions, conditions and
exceptions, by quitclaim deed to the PDA for the purpose of developing a civil
airport facility.
E. Pending such final disposition of the property identified in the PDA
Application for Airport Public Benefit Transfer by deed, the PDA desires to
enter into immediate possession of such property and use, operate and maintain
it, subject to and in
2
accordance with all of the terms and conditions set out in its Application and
this Lease.
F. The Secretary of the Air Force has determined in accordance with the
authority contained in Title 10, United States Code, Section 2667, that the
excess property hereby leased would facilitate State and local economic
readjustment efforts and leasing such property pending its final disposition
will be advantageous to the United States and in the public interest.
G. The Secretary of the Air Force is entering into this Lease under the
authority contained in Title 10, United States Code, Section 2667, and the
general authority contained in Title 00 Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code, Section
1622(g), to transfer a portion of the lands comprising Xxxxx AFB to establish a
civil airport facility.
H. The PDA is entering into this Lease under the authority of New
Hampshire RSA 12-G.
Leased premises
NOW, THEREFORE, the Secretary of the Air Force, by virtue of the authority
conferred upon him by law, for the consideration set out below, hereby leases to
the PDA the premises and property consisting of certain lands with improvements
thereon, together with certain related personal property, comprising a portion
of
3
the former Xxxxx AFB, and more particularly described in Exhibit A and shown on
Exhibit B hereto (collectively, "Airport" or "Leased Premises") for use pending
its final disposition pursuant to the BCRA.
THIS LEASE is granted subject to the following conditions:
Conditions
CONDITION 1
TERM
1.1. This Lease shall be for a term of years, beginning upon the execution

whichever first occurs, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the
provisions of this Lease.
CONDITION 2
EASEMENTS AND RIGHTS-OF-WAY
2.1. This Lease is subject to all outstanding easements and rights-of-way
for any purpose with respect to the Leased Premises.
4
The holders of such easements and rights-of-way ("outgrants") shall have
reasonable rights of ingress and egress over the Leased Premises, consistent
with Lessee's right to quiet enjoyment of them under this Lease, in order to
carry out the purpose of the outgrant. These rights may also be exercised by
workers engaged in the construction, installation, maintenance, operation,
repair or replacement of facilities located on the outgrants and by any federal,
state or local official engaged in the official inspection thereof.
2.2. The United States and any successor or successors in interest in or
to any property owned or controlled by the Government and not included in the
Leased Premises shall have the right of access to and from such property or any
portion thereof to the nearest public road or public way along Airport roadways

CONDITION 3
CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES

of repair of the Leased Premises. It is
5
understood and agreed that they are leased in an "as is," "where is" condition
without any representation or warranty by the Government concerning their
condition and without obligation on the part of the Government to make any
alterations, repairs or additions. The Government shall not be liable for any
latent or patent defects in the Leased Premises. The Lessee acknowledges that

Lessee direct to the Disposal Management Team Site Manager, Xxxxx Air
7
Force Base, New Hampshire 03803 ("Site Manager" or "said officer").
4.3. The Lessee also shall provide protection and maintenance and assume
sole operating responsibility for the various portions of the Leased Premises in
accordance with the provisions of the Lease, subject to Condition 4.4. below.
4.4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Condition 4.3. above, the
Government will continue to provide during a limited transitional period after
the Term Beginning Date, on a cost reimbursable basis and subject to Condition
4.5. below, certain services and functions that otherwise are the responsibility
of the Lessee under the Lease. These services and functions are specified in
Exhibit E hereto. Such Government support of these services and functions will
continue only until such time as they can be provided by the Lessee, but in no
event later than the schedule established in Exhibit E.
4.5. The Parties specifically understand and agree that:
(1) The Government will not provide any services, functions,
protection or maintenance to any portions of or any buildings, facilities or
other improvements on the Leased Premises that are occupied or used by the PDA
or its sublessees, licensees or assignees under or pursuant to this Lease or any
prior lease entered into between the Parties.
8
(2) The Government shall have, during such transitional period, the
exclusive right to continue using, at no cost to the Government, those
facilities currently used by the Government and necessary in providing the
services and functions under Condition 4.4. These facilities include Facilities
No. 134, 135, 136, 11, 124, 125, 10033, 22, and 130.

1992, and the Air Force executed an acceptance of the Application on April 14,
1992 ("Acceptance"). The Application and Acceptance are both attached hereto as
Exhibit F and incorporated in this Lease by reference.
(1) In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of
sections 0x, 0x, 0x, 0x, xx 0x of the Application and Acceptance and any
provisions of the Lease, the provisions of the Lease will control.
(2) In the event of any inconsistency between any provisions (other
than those contained in sections 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e
9
and 8f) of the Application and Acceptance and any provisions of the Lease, the
provisions of the Application and Acceptance will control.
5.2. The Parties have entered into a separate Airport Joint Use Agreement
("AJUA") on the Term Beginning Date. The AJUA provides the delineation of
responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the flying facilities at the
former Xxxxx AFB. The AJUA is attached hereto as Appendix 1.
CONDITION 6
USE OF LEASED PREMISES
6.1. The Leased Premises shall be used only for public airport purposes
for the use and benefit of the public, subject to and in accordance with all of
the terms and conditions set out in the Application and Acceptance identified in
Condition 5.1. above and this Lease. The term "airport purposes" as used in this
Condition 6.1. shall have the same meaning as that ascribed to such term under
14 C.F.R. 154.1(d) and shall include the use of property to produce sources of
revenue from nonaviation business at the Airport and all uses in connection with
airport purposes contemplated within the scope of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement, Disposal and Reuse of Xxxxx Air Force Base, New Hampshire (U.S. Air
Force, June, 1991) ("FEIS"), the Record of Decision dated August 20, 1991
(including attachments thereto)
10
("ROD"), and the Supplemental Record of Decision dated April 13, 1992
("Supplemental ROD").
6.2. The Lessee acknowledges that it has read the FEIS, the ROD and
Supplemental ROD and understands that the operations described in the FEIS, ROD
and Supplemental ROD are the only ones that have been assessed in compliance
with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and the only ones that
constitute permitted uses under this Lease. The Lessee agrees that any
operation, type and quantity of chemicals used or emissions caused, employees,
vehicle trips, flights of aircraft, or any other parameter contained in the
FEIS, ROD and Supplemental ROD (collectively, "FEIS/ROD parameters") which might
have environmental impact or are regulated by Federal or State environmental
laws shall not be exceeded without the prior written consent of the Government
and such other approvals as required by law. The FEIS, ROD and Supplemental ROD
are on file at Xxxxx AFB. The Site Manager will make copies available, on
request.
6.3. The Lessee acknowledges that environmental conditions on portions of
the Leased Premises require that certain restrictions be imposed on the use of
such portions and agrees that the use of the Leased premises is subject to the
restrictions contained in Conditions 10, 17 and 25 below.
6.4. The Lessee acknowledges that a part of the portion of the Leased
Premises identified as Parcel E in the ROD and
11
Supplemental ROD and on Exhibits A and B hereto ("Parcel E") may have to be
transferred back to the Government or to a future owner of the Xxxxx Golf Course
(further described as Parcel F in the ROD and Supplemental ROD) for use to
construct three new golf course holes which will be required to replace a like
number of holes which will be destroyed if construction of a secondary access
were to be undertaken and agrees not to construct any buildings or structures
within Parcel E or using the property or leasing or licensing the use thereof to
any other party or parties for other than golf purposes unless and until the
Lessee purchases the golf course or the replacement golf holes have been built.
6.5. This Lease may be terminated by the Government as provided in
Condition 7. The Lessee hereby waives any claims or suits against the Government
arising out of any such termination.
CONDITION 7
DEFAULT AND TERMINATION
7.1. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default and
breach of this Lease by the Lessee:
(1) The failure by the Lessee to comply with any provision of this
Lease, where such failure to comply continues for thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof by the Government to the Lessee; provided that if the time
required to
12
return to compliance exceeds the thirty (30) day period, the Lessee shall not be
deemed to be in default if the Lessee within such period shall begin the actions
necessary to bring it into compliance with the Lease in accordance with a
compliance schedule approved by the Government.
7.2. This Lease may be terminated by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the
Air Force (Installations) at any time upon written notice to the Lessee in the
event of any such default and breach of the Lease by the Lessee.
CONDITION 8
TAXES
8.1. The Lessee shall pay to the proper authority, when and as the same
become due and payable, all taxes, assessments, and similar charges which, at
any time during the term of this Lease may be imposed upon the Lessee with
respect to the Leased Premises. Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code, Section 2667(e)
contains the consent of Congress to the taxation of the Lessee's interest in the
Leased Premises, whether or not the Leased Premises are in an area of exclusive
Federal jurisdiction. Should Congress consent to taxation of the Government's
interest in the property, this Lease will be renegotiated.
13
8.2. The Lessee, or if applicable, any sublessee, shall have the right at
any time delinquency occurs to contest or object to the amount or validity of
any such tax by appropriate legal proceedings. This right shall not be deemed or
construed in any way as relieving, modifying or extending Lessee's or
sublessee's agreement to pay any such tax unless Lessee shall have obtained a
stay of such proceedings. The Government shall not be required to join in or
assist the Lessee in any such proceedings.
CONDITION 9
SURRENDER OF LEASED PREMISES
9.1. The Lessee shall vacate and surrender the Leased Premises to the
Government upon termination of the Lease pursuant to Condition 7 above. In the
event the Lessee is obligated to vacate and surrender the Leased Premises in
accordance with the preceding sentence, the Lessee shall remove its property
from the Leased Premises and restore them to as good order and condition,
reasonable wear and tear excepted, as that existing on the Term Beginning Date,
subject to Condition 17. If the Lessee shall fail or neglect to remove its
property, then, at the option of the Air Force, the property shall either become
the property of the United States without compensation therefor, or the Air
Force may cause it to be removed and the Leased Premises to be restored at the
expense of the Lessee, and no claim for damages against the United
14
States or its officers or agents shall be created by or made on account of such
removal and restoration work.
9.2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, the Lessee may
remain in possession of the Airport to the extent allowable under Section 8 of
the Application and Acceptance, and so long as the Application and Acceptance
remain in force and the Lessee is not in default of the provisions thereof, the
Lessee shall not be required to vacate and surrender and restore the Leased
Premises even if the Lease is terminated pursuant to Condition 7.
CONDITION 10
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
10.1. The Lessee and any sublessee or licensee shall comply with the
applicable environmental laws and regulations set out in Exhibit G, and all
other Federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and standards that are or may
become applicable to Lessee's activities on the Leased Premises.
10.2. The Lessee and any sublessee or licensee shall be solely responsible
for obtaining at its cost and expense any environmental permits required for its
operations under the Lease, independent of any existing Xxxxx Air Force Base
permits.
15
10.3. The Lessee and any sublessee or licensee shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Government from any costs, expenses, liabilities, fines, or
penalties resulting from discharges, emissions, spills, storage, disposal, or
any other action by the Lessee (or sublessee or licensee) giving rise to
Government liability, civil or criminal, or responsibility under Federal, State
or local environmental laws. This provision shall survive the expiration or
termination of the Lease, and the Lessee's and any sublessee's or licensee's
obligations hereunder shall apply whenever the Government incurs costs or
liabilities for the Lessee's or any sublessee's or licensee's actions giving
rise to liability under this Condition 10.
10.4. The Government's rights under this Lease specifically include the
right for Air Force officials to inspect upon reasonable notice the Licensed
Premises for compliance with environmental, safety, and occupational health laws
and regulations, whether or not the Government is responsible for enforcing
them. Such inspections are without prejudice to the right of duly constituted
enforcement officials to make such inspections.
10.5. Except as provided in Condition 10.6. below, the Government is not
responsible for any removal or containment of asbestos. If the Lessee and any
sublessee or licensee intend to make any improvements or repairs that require
the removal of
16
asbestos, an appropriate asbestos disposal plan must be incorporated in the
plans and specifications. The asbestos disposal will identify the proposed
disposal site for the asbestos.
10.6. The Government shall be responsible for the removal or containment
of friable asbestos existing in the Leased Premises, including any building,
facility or other improvement on the Leased Premises, on the earlier of the
first day of the Lessee's occupancy or use of each portion of or such building,
facility or other improvement on the Leased Premises under any instrument
entered into between the parties or the Term Beginning Date. "Occupancy" or
"use" shall mean any activity or presence, to include preparation and
construction in or upon such building, facility or other improvement on the
Leased Premises. The Government agrees to xxxxx all such existing friable
asbestos as provided in this Condition 10.6. and Condition 10.7. below. The
Government may choose the most economical means of remediating any friable
asbestos, which may include removal or containment, or a combination of removal
and containment. The foregoing agreement does not apply to non-friable asbestos
which may be disturbed by the Lessee's or any sublessee's or assignee's
activities and thereby become friable. Non-friable asbestos which becomes
friable through or as a consequence of the Lessee's or any sublessee's or
licensee's activities under this Lease will be abated by the Lessee at its sole
cost and expense.
17
10.7. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, the Lessee and its
sublessees and licensees do not assume any liability or responsibility for
environmental impacts and damage caused by the use by the Government, including
any agency or agent thereof, of "toxic substances," or "hazardous wastes,"
"hazardous substances" or "hazardous materials" or "oil" or "petroleum
products," as such terms are defined by applicable law, on any portion of Xxxxx
AFB. The Lessee and its sublessees and licensees have no obligation to the Air
Force to undertake the defense, remediation and cleanup (including the liability
and responsibility for the costs of damage, penalties, or legal and
investigative services) solely arising out of any claim or action in existence
now, or which may be brought in the future by third parties or any governmental
body against the Government, because of any use of, or release from, any portion
of Xxxxx AFB, including any portion of or any building, facility or other
improvement on the Leased Premises, of any "toxic substances," or "hazardous
wastes," "hazardous substances" or "hazardous materials" (collectively,
"Hazardous Items") or "oil" or "petroleum products" prior to the earlier of the
first day of Lessee's occupancy or use of each such portion of or such building,
facility or other improvement on the Leased Premises under any instrument
entered into between the Parties or the Term Beginning Date. "Occupancy" or
"use" shall mean any activity or presence (including preparation and
construction) in or upon such portion of, or such building, facility or other
improvement on the Leased Premises. Furthermore, the Air Force recognizes and
18
acknowledges it's obligation to indemnify the Lessee and any sublessee to the
extent required by the provisions of Public Law No. 101-519, Section 8056. This
Condition 10.7 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease.
10.8. The Government acknowledges that Xxxxx AFB has been identified as a
National Priority List (NPL) Site under the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended. The Lessee
acknowledges that the Government has provided it with a copy of the Xxxxx Air
Force Base Federal Facility Agreement entered into by EPA Region I, the State of
New Hampshire, and the Air Force and effective on April 24, 1991, and will
provide the Lessee with a copy of any amendments thereto. The Lessee agrees that
should any conflict arise between the terms of such agreement as it presently
exists or may be amended ("FFA," "Interagency Agreement" or "IAG") and the
provisions of this Lease, the terms of the FFA will take precedence. The Lessee
further agrees that notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, the
Government assumes no liability to the Lessee or its sublessees or licensees
should implementation of the FFA interfere with the Lessee's or any sublessee's
or licensee's use of the Leased Premises. The Lessee shall have no claim on
account of any such interference against the United States or any officer,
agent, employee or contractor thereof, other than for abatement of rent.
19
10.9. The Air Force, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) and
their officers, agents, employees, contractors, and subcontractors have the
right, upon reasonable notice to the Lessee and any sublessee or licensee, to
enter upon the Leased Premises for the purposes enumerated in this subparagraph
and for such other purposes consistent with any provision of the FFA:
(1) to conduct investigations and surveys, including, where
necessary, drilling, testpitting, testing soil borings and other activities
related to the Xxxxx Air Force Base Installation Restoration Program ("Xxxxx AFB
IRP") or the FFA;
(2) to inspect field activities of the Air Force and its contractors
and subcontractors in implementing the Xxxxx AFB IRP or the FFA;
(3) to conduct any test or survey required by the EPA or NHDES
relating to the implementation of the FFA or environmental conditions at the
leased premises or to verify any data submitted to the EPA or NHDES by the Air
Force relating to such conditions;
(4) to construct, operate, maintain or undertake any other response
or remedial action as required or necessary under
20
the Xxxxx AFB IRP or the FFA, including, but not limited to monitoring xxxxx,
pumping xxxxx and treatment facilities.
10.10. The Lessee agrees to comply with the provisions of any health or
safety plan in effect under the IRP or the FFA during the course of any of the
above described response or remedial actions. Any inspection, survey,
investigation, or other response or remedial action will, to the extent
practicable, be coordinated with representatives designated by the Lessee and
any sublessee or licensee. The Lessee and any sublessees or licensees shall have
no claim on account of such entries against the United States or any officer,
agent, employee, contractor, or subcontractor thereof.
10.11. The Lessee further agrees that in the event of any assignment,
sublease or license of the Leased Premises pursuant to Condition 20 of the
Lease, it shall provide to the EPA and NHDES by certified mail a copy of the
agreement of assignment, sublease or license of the Leased Premises (as the case
may be) within fourteen (14) days after the effective date of such transaction.
The Lessee may delete the financial terms and any other proprietary information
from the copy of any agreement of assignment, sublease or license furnished
pursuant to this Condition 10.11.
10.12. Xxxxx Air Force Base air emissions offsets will not be made
available to the Lessee. The Lessee shall be responsible
21
for obtaining from some other source(s) any air pollution credits that may be
required to offset emissions resulting from its activities under the Lease.
10.13. The Lessee shall strictly comply with the hazardous waste permit
requirements under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, or its New Hampshire
equivalent. The Lessee must provide at its own expense such hazardous waste
storage facilities, complying with all laws and regulations, as it may need for
storage. Government hazardous waste storage facilities will not be available to
the Lessee. Any violation of the requirements of this Condition 10.13 shall be
deemed a material breach of this Lease.
10.14. Air Force accumulation points for hazardous and other wastes will
not be used by the Lessee or any sublessee. Neither will the Lessee or sublessee
permit its hazardous wastes to be commingled with hazardous waste of the Air
Force.
10.15. The Lessee shall have a completed and approved plan for responding
to hazardous waste, fuel, and other chemical spills prior to commencement of
operations on the Leased Premises. Such plan shall be independent of Xxxxx AFB
and except for, initial fire response and/or spill containment, shall not rely
on use of Xxxxx AFB personnel or equipment. Should the Government provide any
personnel or equipment, whether for initial fire response and/or spill
containment, otherwise on request of the Lessee, or because
22
the Lessee was not, in the opinion of the said officer, conducting timely
cleanup actions, the Lessee agrees to reimburse the Government for its costs.
10.16. The Lessee further agrees that it shall provide, or shall require
its sublessee or licensee to provide the Air Force, EPA and NHDES with prior
written notice accompanied by a detailed description of all plans for any
Alterations (as defined in Condition 17.1) which may impede or impair any
activities under the FFA or are to be undertaken in certain areas of the Airport
identified as "Areas of Special Notice" on Exhibit I-2 hereto. (These Areas of
Special Notice consist of either "operable units" (as defined in the National
Contingency Plan) or "Areas of Concern" (as defined in the FFA) and include
buffer areas as shown in Exhibit I-2.) The notice and accompanying plans shall
be provided to the Air Force, EPA and NHDES sixty (60) days in advance of the
commencement of any such Alterations. The detailed description of said plans
shall include a description of the effect such planned work may have with
respect to site soil and groundwater conditions and the cleanup efforts
contemplated under the FFA. Notwithstanding the preceding three sentences, the
Lessee or its sublessees or licensees shall be under no obligation to provide
advance written notice of any Alterations that will be undertaken totally within
any structure located on the Leased Premises, provided that such work will not
impede or impair any activities under the FFA. However, any work below the floor
of any such structure that will involve excavation in and/or
23
disturbance of concrete flooring, soil and/or groundwater will be subject to the
sixty (60) day notice requirement imposed by this Condition 10.16.
10.17. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, the Lessee agrees
it shall coordinate all Alterations and any other work subject to the notice
requirement imposed by Condition 10.16 above with the Air Force, EPA and NHDES
in accordance with the FFA and in a manner that does not impede or impair any
activities under the PTA or exacerbate then existing conditions.
CONDITION 11

including any improvements located thereon, in good order and condition, and
exercise due diligence in protecting the Leased Premises against damage or
destruction by fire and other causes, subject to the applicable provisions of
Conditions 4, 10, 15 and 17. At a minimum, the Lessee agrees to maintain or to
require its sublessees and licensees to maintain the Leased Premises to the
extent required by the FAA conditions of transfer identified in Condition 23
below and the Application identified in Condition

property described in Exhibit A and Exhibit B) damaged or destroyed by the
Lessee incident to the Lessee's use and occupation of the Leased Premises shall
be promptly repaired or replaced by the Lessee to the satisfaction of the Site
Manager. In lieu of such repair or replacement the Lessee shall, if so required
by the Site Manager, pay to the United States money in an amount sufficient to
compensate for the loss sustained by the Government by reason of damage or
destruction of Government property.
CONDITION 13
ACCESS AND INSPECTION
13.1. Any agency of the United States, its officers, agents, employees,
and contractors, may enter upon the Leased Premises, at all reasonable times for
any purposes not
25
inconsistent with Lessee's quiet use and enjoyment and control of airport
operations under this Lease, including but not limited to the purpose of
inspection. The Government normally will give the Lessee or sublessee or
licensee twenty-four (24) hours prior notice of its intention to enter the
Leased Premises unless it determines the entry is required for safety,
environmental, operations, or security purposes. The Lessee shall have no claim
on account of any entries against the United States or any officer, agent,
employee, or contractor thereof.
13.2 The Government agrees that upon its receipt of written notice from
the Lessee, the Government shall have sixty (60) days in which to remove its

or injuries to persons which may arise from or be attributable or incident to
the condition or state or repair of the Leased Premises, or the use and
occupation thereof, or for damages to the property of the Lessee, or for damages
to the property or injuries to the person of the Lessee's officers,
26
agents, servants or employees, or others who may be on the Leased Premises at

14.2. The Lessee agrees to assume all risks of loss or damage to property
and injury or death to persons by reason of or incident to the possession and/or
use of the Leased Premises, or the activities conducted by the Lessee under this
Lease. The Lessee expressly waives all claims against the Government for any
such loss, damage, personal injury or death caused by or occurring as a
consequence of such possession and/or use of the Leased Premises or the conduct
of activities or the performance of responsibilities under this Lease. The
Lessee further agrees to indemnify, save, hold harmless, and defend the
Government, its officers, agents and employees, from and against all suits,
claims, demands or actions, liabilities, judgments, costs and attorneys' fees
arising out of, or in any manner predicated upon personal injury, death or
property damage resulting from, related to, caused by or arising out of the
possession and/or use of the Leased Premises or any activities conducted or
services furnished in connection with or pursuant to this Lease. The agreements
contained in the preceding sentence do not extend to claims for damages caused
by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of officers, agents or employees
of the United States, without contributory fault on the part of any person, firm
or corporation. The Government will give the Lessee notice of any claim against
it covered by this indemnity as soon after learning of it as practicable.
27
CONDITION 15
INSURANCE
15.1. The Lessee shall in any event and without prejudice to any other
rights of the Government bear all risk of loss or damage or destruction to the
Leased Premises, including any building(s), improvements, fixtures or other
property thereon, arising from any causes whatsoever, with or without fault by
the Government.
15.2. The Lessee shall have the option to self-insure, in whole or in
part, the risk of loss borne by Lessee under Condition 15.1 above. In addition,
during the entire period this Lease shall be in effect, the Lessee shall
require, subject to availability on reasonable terms and conditions, sublessees
and licensees of substantial portions of the Leased Premises to carry and
maintain at their expense the following:
(1) Property insurance coverage against loss or damage by fire and
lightning and against loss or damage or other risks embraced by coverage of the
type now known as the broad form of extended coverage (including but not limited
to riot and civil commotion, vandalism, and malicious mischief and earthquake)

building improvements, improvements to the land, and personal property on the
subleased premises. The policies of
28
insurance carried in accordance with this Condition shall contain a Replacement
Cost Endorsement." Such full replacement cost shall be determined from time to
time, upon the written request of the Government or the Lessee, but not more
frequently than once in any twenty-four (24) consecutive calendar month period
(except in the event of substantial changes or alterations to the Leased
Premises undertaken by the Lessee or any sublessee or licensee as permitted
under the provisions of the Lease).
(2) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including but not
limited to general operation and airport liability insurance endorsed for
hangar-keeping and products and completed operations and, where applicable,
hangar-keeping liability insurance, on an "occurrence basis" against claims for
"personal injury," including without limitation, bodily injury, death or
property damage, occurring upon, in or about the subleased premises including
any buildings thereon and the ramp area and adjoining sidewalks, streets, and
passageways, such insurance to afford immediate minimum protection at the time
of the Term Beginning Date, and at all times during the term of this Lease, to
commercially reasonable limits (and deductibles) with respect to damage to
property and with respect to personal injury or death to any one or more
persons. Such insurance shall also include coverage against liability for bodily
injury or property damage arising out of the acts or omissions by or on behalf
of the sublessee or any other person or organization, or involving any
29
owned, non-owned, leased or hired automotive equipment in connection with the
sublessee's activities.
(3) If and to the extent required by law, workers' compensation and
employer's liability or similar insurance in form and amounts required by law.
15.3. During the entire period this Lease shall be in effect, the Lessee,
or any sublessee or licensee shall either carry and maintain the insurance
required below at its expense or require any contractor performing work on the
leased premises to carry and maintain at no expense to the Government:
(1) The comprehensive general liability and property damage
insurance provided for in subparagraph 15.2.(1) above shall be maintained for
the limits specified thereunder and shall provide coverage for the mutual
benefit of the Government and the Lessee as additional insureds in connection
with any construction or work permitted pursuant to this Lease.
(2) Fire and any other applicable insurance provided for in this
Condition 15 which, if not then covered under the provisions of existing
policies, shall be covered by special endorsement thereto in respect to any
alterations, including all materials and equipment therefor incorporated in, on
or about the Leased Premises (including excavations, foundations, and footings)
30
under a broad form all risks builder's risk completed value form or equivalent

(3) Workers' compensation or similar insurance covering all persons
employed in connection with the work and with respect to whom death or bodily
injury claims could be asserted against the Government, the Lessee or the Leased
Premises in form and amounts required by law.
15.4. All policies of insurance which this Lease requires the Lessee or
any sublessee or licensee to carry and maintain or cause to be carried or
maintained pursuant to this Condition 15 shall be effected under valid and
enforceable policies, in such forms and amounts as may, from time to time, be
required under this Lease, issued by insurers of recognized responsibility. All
such policies of insurance shall be for the mutual benefit of the Government and
the Lessee and, if applicable, any sublessee or licensee as additional insureds
as well as any mortgagee to the extent allowed under this Lease. Each such
policy shall provide that any losses shall be payable notwithstanding any act or
failure to act or negligence of the Lessee or the Government or any other
person; provide that no cancellation, reduction in amount, or material change in
coverage thereof shall be effective until at least sixty (60) days after receipt
by the Government of written notice thereof; provide that the insurer shall have
no right of subrogation against the Government; and be reasonably satisfactory
to the Government in all other respects. In no
31
circumstances will the Lessee be entitled to assign to any third party rights of
action which the Lessee may have against the Government. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any cancellation of insurance coverage based on nonpayment of the
premium shall be effective upon ten (10) days' written notice to the Government.
The Lessee understands and agrees that cancellation of any insurance coverage
required to be carried and maintained by the Lessee or any sublessee under this
Condition 15 will constitute a failure to comply with the terms of the Lease,
and the Government shall have the right to terminate the Lease pursuant to
Condition 7 upon receipt of any such cancellation notice, but only if the Lessee
fails to cure such noncompliance to the extent allowed under Condition 7.
15.5. The Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered upon execution of
this Lease (and thereafter not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the
expiration date of each policy furnished pursuant to this Condition 15) to the
Government a certificate of insurance evidencing the insurance required by this
Lease.
15.6. In the event that any item or part of the Leased Premises (other
than Alterations or other improvements made or authorized by the Lessee
subsequent to the Term Beginning Date) shall be damaged or destroyed, the risk
of which is assumed by the Lessee under Condition 15.1. above ("Damaged or
Destroyed Property"), the Lessee shall promptly give notice thereof to the
Government. The Lessee shall have the election either to repair
32
and restore the Damaged or Destroyed Property or to continue to occupy the same
without any obligation to repair or replace such damage other than repairs that
may be required for safety reasons.
(1) In the event the Lessee elects not to repair and restore the
Damaged or Destroyed Property, all applicable insurance proceeds relative to the
Damaged or Destroyed Property shall be applied first to removing any debris from
and restoring the damaged area to a reasonably clean condition, and any
remaining balance shall be retained by the Lessee for use at the Airport for
airport purposes. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the
event applicable terms of a leasehold mortgage on the Leased Premises, or any
portion of the Leased Premises (as that term is defined in Condition 21) require
the balance of such insurance proceeds to be paid first to a leasehold
mortgagee(s) (as that term is defined in Condition 21), all such insurance
proceeds shall be so paid and any remaining balance shall than be allocated as
set forth in said sentence.
(2) In the event the Lessee shall elect to repair and restore the
Damaged or Destroyed Property, it shall provide written notice of such election
to the Government within ninety-five (95) days after the occurrence of such
damage or destruction and thereafter shall promptly repair and restore the
Damaged or Destroyed Property to its condition immediately prior to the
occurrence of the fire or other cause.
33
(3) All repair and restoration work under this Condition 15.6 shall
comply with the provisions of Conditions 10 17, and 25 applicable to Alterations
and any other work subject to the notice requirements imposed by Condition 10.16
above.
15.7. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, the Lessee may
allow governmental sublessees to self-insure, in whole or in part, any of the
risks within the scope of this Condition 15.
CONDITION 16
COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS
16.1. The Lessee will at all times during the existence of this Lease
promptly observe and comply, at its sole cost and expense, with the provisions
of all applicable Federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and standards,
and in particular those provisions concerning the protection of the environment
and pollution control and abatement.
16.2 The Lessee shall comply with all applicable state and local laws,
ordinances, and regulations with regard to construction, sanitation, licenses or

16.3. The Lessee shall comply with all applicable Federal, state, and
local occupational safety and health regulations. In addition, the Lessee shall
comply with all applicable Air Force safety, health and fire regulations,

areas of the airfield portion of the Leased Premises, including ramps and
taxiways, until such time as the Lessee shall assume full responsibility for
operation of the airfield as provided in the AJUA.
16.4. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to constitute a waiver of
Federal Supremacy or Federal or State of New Hampshire sovereign immunity. Only
laws and regulations applicable to the Leased Premises under the Constitution
and statutes of the United States are covered by this Condition.
16.5. Responsibility for compliance as specified in this Condition 16
rests exclusively with the Lessee, or with respect to any subleased premises
with the appropriate sublessee. The Department of the Air Force assumes no
enforcement or supervisory responsibility except with respect to matters
committed to its jurisdiction and authority. The Lessee or appropriate sublessee
shall be liable for all costs associated with compliance, defense of enforcement
actions or suits, payment of fines, penalties, or
35
other sanctions and remedial costs related to Lessee's or any sublessee's or
licensee's use of the Leased Premises.
16.6. The Lessee or its sublessees or licensees shall have the right to
contest by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, without
cost or expense to the Government, the validity or application of any law,
ordinance, order, rule, regulation or requirement of the nature referred to in
this Condition. The Air Force shall not be required to join in or assist the
Lessee or its sublessees or licensees in any such proceedings.
CONDITION 17
DEVELOPMENT AND ALTERATIONS
17.1. The Lessee shall have the right to develop (or allow the development
of) undeveloped or underdeveloped areas of the Leased Premises; to otherwise
alter (or allow the alteration of) all or any portion of the Leased Premises;
and to place, construct or demolish (or cause or allow to be placed, constructed
or demolished) any improvements, structures, alterations or additions or other
changes in, to or upon the Leased Premises, subject to Conditions 10, 25 and
17.2. to 17.8. inclusive below. (All of the activities in the preceding sentence
shall be referred to cumulatively as "Alterations.")
36
17.2. The Lessee shall make (or shall require its sublessees and licensees
to make) all Alterations in compliance with all applicable governmental laws,
regulations, codes, standards or other requirements and the provisions of
Condition 10 of the Lease. This obligation shall include compliance with all
applicable provisions of the FFA.
17.3. The Lessee shall not construct or make, or permit its sublessees or
licensees to construct or make, any Alterations which may impede or impair any
activities under the FFA or are to be undertaken in Areas of Special Notice (as
defined in Condition 10.16) without the prior written consent of the Air Force.
Requests for such consent require review by the Office of the Deputy Assistant
Secretary of the Air Force (Environment, Safety and Occupational Health) and the
Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Installations) and will be
forwarded promptly by the Site Manager through channels with the pertinent
supporting documentation and his or her comments. Such consent may include a
requirement for written approval by the Remedial Project Managers appointed
under the FFA and may provide that such approved Alterations shall become
Government property when annexed to the Leased Premises. Plans and
specifications shall be submitted in accordance with the provisions of Condition
10.16. The Air Force review process for any proposed Alterations shall be
completed within sixty (60) days of the receipt of plans and specifications. In
the event that problems are detected during review, immediate notice shall be
provided by telephone to the Lessee.
37
17.4. The Lessee shall not make, permit, or suffer any additions,
improvements, or alterations to the Airport which constitute any major
structural change or changes unless such change or changes are consistent with
the FFA, the provisions of Condition 23.2(11) and the FAA Record of Decision,
dated February 26, 1992. Title to Alterations or such additions or improvements
or alterations shall vest in the Lessee (or sublessee or licensee as
applicable), subject to the provisions of Condition 9.1, and be subject to all
other terms and conditions of this Lease. The Lessee agrees to hold the United
States harmless from mechanics' and materialmen's liens arising from any
additions, improvements, or alterations effected by the Lessee.
17.5. Any contractor or subcontractor of the Lessee or of any sublessee or
licensee shall maintain or cause to be maintained the insurance required
pursuant to Condition 15.3.

38
provisions of the FFA. For purposes of this Condition, the term "construction
and construction-related work" shall include without limitation repairs,
maintenance, alterations and additions.
17.8. The Lessee shall maintain MYLAR as-built drawings (or their
equivalent) when any alteration authorized hereunder is completed.
CONDITION 18
UTILITIES
18.1. Prior to the transfer of the utility systems identified in Exhibit
A, Section 11.12, to the Lessee, the Lessee will be responsible for, and will
require its sublessees and licensees to be responsible for, all utilities,
janitorial services, building maintenance and grounds maintenance for the Leased
Premises (or subleased or licensed premises) without cost to the Government,
except to the extent otherwise provided in Condition 4 and Exhibit E. Utilities
services will be provided through meters, if practicable. The Lessee will (or
will cause its sublessees or licensees to) purchase, install, and maintain all
such meters at its (or their) own cost and without cost and expense to the
Government. The Lessee will pay the charges for any utilities and services
furnished by the Government which the Lessee may require in connection with its
use of the Leased Premises. The charges and the method of payment for each
utility
39
or service will be determined by the appropriate supplier of the utility or
service in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, on such basis as the
appropriate supplier of the utility or service may establish. It is expressly
understood and agreed that the Government in no way warrants the continued
maintenance or adequacy of any utilities or services furnished by it to the
Lessee.
(1) subject to subparagraphs 18.1(2) and 18.1(3) below, the Lessee
may purchase from the Government the following utility services: electricity,
water, high pressure water heat, and sewage.
(2) Any sale of a utility service will be in accordance with 10
U.S.C. 5 2481 and Air Force Regulation (AFR) 91-5.
(3) The Lessee agrees to enter into a separate contract for each
utility service procured under Condition 18.1 above at rates to be specified in
each contract.
18.2. Upon the transfer of the utility systems identified in Exhibit A,
Section 11.12, to the Lessee, the Lessee shall continue to supply, or shall
arrange for the continued supply of, all such utilities (except for heat)
supplied by the current systems to the United States or its successor or
successors in interest in or to any remaining property owned or controlled by
the Government at
40
Xxxxx AFB and to the present or future owners of any property at Xxxxx AFB not
described or identified in Schedule A, Sections I or II, provided, however,
that: (i) the Lessee shall exercise reasonable efforts to accommodate any
requests by the Air Force or any successors in interest for increased levels of
service, but shall have no obligation to extend or enlarge the Utility Systems
or their capacities beyond the limits or capacities as of the Term Beginning
Date; (ii) the Lessee shall have no obligation to maintain secondary lines
within the system; and (iii) the Air Force or its successors shall be
responsible for any hook-up from their property to the Utility Systems,
including the hook-up of separate meters. Nothing herein shall require the
Lessee or utility suppliers to continue to utilize any existing Utility Systems,
provided that the Lessee makes adequate provision, or requires the applicable
utility supplier to make adequate provision, for a transition to an alternate
system or systems that minimizes to the extent practicable any disruption to
utility services to the Air Force or its successors. All utilities supplied to
the Air Force or its successors under this provision shall be at rates that do
not exceed those charged comparable users. The supply of utilities required
hereunder may be interrupted in order to make necessary repairs or alterations
and the Lessee shall not be responsible for any interruption or suspension of
any utility services other than as set forth herein. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Application, the Lessee may impose restrictions on any hook-ups
or connections to the
41
Utility Systems that the Lessee reasonably determines may exceed the capacity of
any such Utility System.
CONDITION 19

ASSIGNMENTS. SUBLEASES AND LICENSES
20.1. The Lessee shall neither transfer nor assign this Lease, except as
otherwise may be allowed under Condition 23.2 of the Lease.
20.2. The Lessee may enter into any sublease or license or otherwise
authorize the use of any portion of the Leased Premises
43
(collectively, "Use Authorization"), subject to the provisions of subparagraphs
(1), (2) and (3) below in this Condition 20.2.
(1) The use of the premises associated with any "Use Authorization"
must be allowable under Condition 6.

the case of a transaction by a sublessee, licensee or other authorized user
(collectively, "Authorized User"), shall be required to comply) with the
provisions of Condition 10, including the notice requirements of Condition 10.8
of the FFA and shall be consistent with all other terms and conditions of this
Lease and the Application and Acceptance identified in Condition 5.1. above,
except that the Lessee may rent or impose other types of charges for the

Area") at rates or levels that are deemed appropriate by the Lessee and
consistent with FAA standards and requirements.
(3) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Use
Authorization and the provisions of the Lease, the provisions of the Lease will
control. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Use
Authorization and the provisions of the Application and Acceptance, the
Application and Acceptance will control. Copies of the Lease and the Application
and Acceptance must be attached to the use Authorization instrument.
44
20.3. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to by the Government in writing,
no Use Authorization shall relieve the Lessee of any of its obligations under
the Lease.
CONDITION 21
LIENS, AND MORTGAGES
21.1. Except as provided in this Condition 21, the Lessee shall not: (a)
engage in any financing or other transaction creating any mortgage upon the
Leased Premises, (b) place or suffer to be placed upon the Leased Premises any
lien or other encumbrance; or (c) suffer any levy or attachment to be made on
the Lessee's interest in the Leased Premises, other than such levy or attachment
as may result from a foreclosure of a mortgage on any portion of the Leased
Premises subject to a sublease. Any such mortgage, encumbrance, or lien shall
be deemed to be a violation of this covenant and constitute a failure to comply
with the terms of the Lease on the date of its execution or filing of record
regardless of whether or when it is foreclosed or otherwise enforced.
21.2. During the term of this Lease, the Lessee may authorize a sublessee
to encumber its interest in the subleased premises by way of one or more loans
secured by a mortgage to provide financing for the cost of capital improvements
or other
45
development of the subleased premises, subject to Condition 21.3 below. The
proposed holder of any mortgage must be approved by the Lessee prior to the
execution of such loan. Any loan with respect to subleased premises may be
further secured by a conditional assignment of the applicable sublease by the
sublessee to the mortgagee. The Government agrees to execute an Estoppel
Certificate and any other similar documentation as may reasonably be required by
the mortgagee so as to give its consent to the conditional assignment of the
sublease and to certify as to the status of this Lease and to the performance of
the Lessee hereunder as of the date of such certification.
21.3. No mortgage shall extend to or affect the fee, the reversionary
interest or the estate of the Government in the Leased Premises. No mortgage
shall be binding upon the Government in the enforcement of its rights and
remedies under the Lease and by law provided, unless, and until a copy thereof
shall have been delivered to the Government and such mortgage is authorized in
accordance with the provisions of this Condition 21.
21.4. Promptly after authorizing a sublessee to assign or encumber any
subleased premises, the Lessee shall require its sublessee to furnish the
Government a written notice setting forth the name and address of such
mortgagee. Further, the Lessee shall require its sublessee to notify the
Government promptly of any lien or encumbrance which has been created or
attached to the sublessee's interest in the subleased premises whether by act of
46
the sublessee or otherwise, of which the Lessee or sublessee has notice.
21.5. If a mortgagee or purchaser at foreclosure of the mortgage shall
acquire the sublessee's interest in the subleased premises, by virtue of the
default by the sublessee under the mortgage or otherwise, the applicable
sublease shall continue in full force and effect so long as the mortgagee or
purchaser at foreclosure is not in default thereunder. The mortgagee or
purchaser at foreclosure may not appoint an agent or nominee to operate and
manage any portion of the subleased premises on its behalf without first
obtaining the written approval of the Lessee. Such approval shall require a
determination by the Lessee that the proposed agent or nominee has demonstrated
experience or expertise in the development, management, and operation of
facilities similar to the subleased premises. For the period of time during
which the mortgagee or any purchaser at foreclosure of a mortgage holds the
sublessees interest in the subleased premises, the mortgagee or such purchaser
shall become liable and fully bound by the provisions of the applicable
sublease.
21.6. With respect to the mortgagees of the subleased premises, the
Government agrees that the following shall apply:
(1) If requested by a mortgagee which shall have duly registered in
writing with the Government its name and address, any notice from the Government
to the Lessee affecting the
47
subleased premises shall be simultaneously delivered to the applicable sublessee
and such mortgagee at its registered address, and in the event of any such
registration, no notice of default or termination of this Lease affecting the
subleased premises given by the Government to the Lessee shall be deemed legally
effective until and unless like notice shall have been given by the Government
to such sublessee and mortgagee
(2) Such mortgagee entitled to such notice shall have any and all
rights of the sublessee with respect to the curing of any default hereunder by
the Lessee.
(3) The Government will not enter into any material modification of
this Lease affecting the subleased premises without the prior written consent
thereto of each mortgagee who shall become entitled to notice as provided in
Condition 21.4 above. The foregoing shall not apply or be construed to apply to
any right the Government may have to terminate this Lease pursuant to its terms.
It is also agreed that the Lessee shall require the sublessee to provide any
such mortgagee with notice of any proposed modification.
(4) If the Government shall elect to terminate this Lease by reason
of any default by the Lessee with respect to the subleased premises, the
mortgagee that shall have become entitled to notice as provided in this
Condition 21.6 shall not only have any and all rights of the sublessee with
respect to curing of any
48
default with respect to the subleased premises, but also shall have the right to
postpone and extend the specified date for the termination of this Lease
("Mortgagee's Right to Postpone") in any notice of termination by the Government
to the Lessee ("Termination Notice"), subject to the following conditions:
(a) Such mortgagee shall (i) give the Government written
notice of the exercise of the Mortgagee's Right to Postpone prior to the date of
termination specified by the Government in the Termination Notice; and (ii)
simultaneously pay to the Government all amounts required to cure all defaults
then existing (as of date of the exercise of Mortgagee's Right to Postpone)
which may be cured by the payment of a sum of money.
(b) Such mortgagee shall (i) pay any sums and charges which
may be due and owing by the Lessee and (ii) promptly undertake to cure,
diligently prosecute and, as soon as reasonably possible, complete the curing
all defaults of the Lessee and sublessee with respect to the subleased premises
which is susceptible of being cured by such mortgagee.
(c) The Mortgagee's Right to Postpone shall extend the date
for the termination of this Lease specified in the Termination Notice for a
period of not more than six (6) months.
(d) If, before the date specified for the termination of this
Lease as extended by such mortgagee's exercise
49
of Mortgagee's Right to Postpone, (i) the assumption of performance and
observance of the covenants and conditions herein contained on the Lessee's part
to be performed under the Lease with respect to the subleased premises shall be
delivered to the Government by the mortgagee, or its nominee and (ii) the
mortgagee shall have complied with all obligations on the Lessee's and
sublessee's part to be performed with respect to the subleased premises under
the Lease and no further defaults with respect to the subleased premises shall
have occurred which shall not have been cured within the periods of time after
notice above provided for, then and in such event, all defaults under this Lease
with respect to the subleased premises shall be deemed to have been cured, and
the Government's Termination Notice shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
(5) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to impose any
obligation on the part of the Government to deliver physical possession of the
Leased Premises to such holder of a mortgage.
(6) If more than one mortgagee shall seek to exercise any of the
rights provided for in this Condition 21.6, the holder of the mortgage having
priority of lien over the other mortgagees shall be entitled, as against the
others, to exercise such rights. Should a dispute arise among mortgagees
regarding the priority of lien, the mortgagees must prove to the satisfaction of
the Government that they have settled that dispute.
50
(7) The mortgagee may not appoint an agent or nominee to operate and
manage the subleased premises on its behalf without first obtaining the written
approval of the Lessee. Such approval shall require a determination by the
Lessee that the proposed agent or nominee has demonstrated experience or
expertise in the development, management, and operation of facilities similar to
the subleased premises.
CONDITION 22
HISTORIC PROPERTY
22.1. Lessee hereby covenants on behalf of itself, its successors and
assigns, to preserve and maintain those portions of the Newington Town Forest
(as it was described when listed in the National Register of Historic Places on
December 9, 1991, the "Newington Center Historic District (Boundary Increase)")
located within the Airport in the County of Rockingham, State of New Hampshire
("Forest Areas"), more particularly described in Exhibit A and shown on Exhibit
B, in accordance with the recommended approaches in The Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Historic Preservation Projects, specifically "General
Standards" numbers one through four and "Standards for Preservation" numbers
nine and ten as published in the Federal Register, Volume 48, No. 190, pages
44737 and 44738 as part of The Secretary of the Interior's Standards and
Guidelines for Archeology and Historic
51
Preservation ("Standards and Guidelines") in order to preserve and enhance those
qualities that make the Newington Town Forest eligible for inclusion in the
National Register of Historic Places. Copies of the Nomination and the Standards
and Guidelines are attached as Exhibit J hereto. This covenant shall be a
binding servitude upon the Forest Areas and shall remain in effect for the
duration of the Lease. This covenant is binding on the Lessee, its successors
and assigns during the existence of the Lease. The restrictions, stipulations
and covenants contained herein shall be inserted by Lessee, its successors and
assigns, verbatim or by express reference in any sublease or license or any
other legal instrument by which it divests itself of any interest in the Forest
Areas, or any part thereof.
22.2. No construction, alteration, remodeling, demolition, disturbance of
the ground surface, or other action shall be undertaken or permitted to be
undertaken on the Forest Areas that would materially affect the integrity or the
appearance of the attributes described above without the prior written
permission of the New Hampshire State Historic Preservation Officer ("New
Hampshire SHPO"). Should the New Hampshire SHPO object to the proposed treatment
within thirty (30) days of receiving the request and cannot resolve the
differences, Lessee shall request the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation
("Council") to resolve the dispute. The Council will provide comments within
fifteen (15) days of receiving the request from the Lessee. The Lessee shall
consider the Council's comments in reaching its
52
decision on the treatment. The Lessee will report its decision to the Council,
and if practicable, it will do so prior to initiating the treatment.
22.3. Upon acquisition of any standing historic structure, the Lessee will
take prompt action to secure all of them from the elements, vandalism, or arson
and will make any emergency stabilization. The Lessee will, to the extent
practicable, make every effort to retain or reuse the historic structures.
22.4. Should any archeological site be discovered during any project
activities, Lessee will stop work promptly and obtain the comments of the New
Hampshire SHPO regarding appropriate treatment of the site. The final mitigation
plan shall be approved by the New Hampshire SHPO.
22.5. The Lessee will allow the New Hampshire SHPO or his or her designee,
at all reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice to the Lessee, to
inspect the Forest Areas in order to ascertain whether the Lessee is complying
with the conditions of this preservation covenant.
22.6. The Lessee will provide the New Hampshire SHPO and the Council with
a written summary of actions taken to implement the provisions of this
preservation covenant within one (1) year after the effective date of the
transfer of the Forest Areas. Similar reports will be submitted to the New
Hampshire SHPO and the
53
Council each January thereafter until the reuse plan has been completed.
22.7. Failure of the New Hampshire SHPO to exercise any right or remedy
granted under this covenant shall not have the effect of waiving or limiting the
exercise by the New Hampshire SHPO of any other right or remedy or the
invocation of such right or remedy at any other time.
22.8. The Lessee may, with the prior written approval of the New Hampshire
SHPO, modify for good cause any or all of the foregoing restrictions. Prior to
such action, the Lessee will notify the Council of the proposed modification and
allow them thirty (30) days to comment.
CONDITION 23
FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
23.1. By acceptance of this Lease, the Lessee for itself, its successors
and assigns, agrees that the transfer of the Leased Premises by this Lease is
accepted subject to the following restrictions set forth in subparagraphs (1)
and (2) of this Condition 23.1:
(1) That, except as provided in subparagraph 23.2(1) below, the
property transferred by this Lease shall be used for
54
public airport purposes for the use and benefit of the public, on reasonable
terms and without unjust discrimination and without grant or exercise of any
exclusive right for use of the Airport within the meaning of the term "exclusive
right" as used in subparagraph 23.2(3) below.
(2) That, except as provided in subparagraph 23.2(1), the entire
landing area, as defined in Section 101 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, as
amended, and Federal Aviation Regulations pertaining thereto, and all
structures, improvements, facilities and equipment in which this instrument
transfers any interest, shall be maintained for the use and benefit of the
public at all times in safe and serviceable condition, so as to insure its
efficient operation and use; provided, however, that such maintenance shall be
required as to structures, improvements, facilities and equipment only during
the useful life thereof, as determined by the Administrator of the FAA or his or
her successor in function. In the event materials are required to rehabilitate
or repair certain of the aforementioned structures, improvements, facilities or
equipment, they may be procured by demolition of other structures, improvements,
facilities or equipment transferred hereby and located on the above land which
have outlived their use as airport property in the opinion of the Administrator
of the FAA or his or her successor in function. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Lease: (i) with the prior written approval of the FAA, the
Lessee may close or otherwise limit use or access to any portion of the Airport
that
55
it deems appropriate if such closure or use limitation is related to Airport
operating considerations or is based upon insufficient demand for such portion
of the Airport; and (ii) with respect to any such portion of the Airport, the
Lessee shall be under no obligation to maintain the same other than as may be
required to maintain adequate public safety conditions.
23.2. Further, by acceptance of this Lease or any rights hereunder, the
Lessee for itself, its successors and assigns, assumes the obligation of,
covenants to abide by and agree to, and this Lease is made subject to, the
following reservations and restrictions set forth below in subparagraphs (1) to
(14), inclusive, of this Condition 23.2: Provided, that the property transferred
hereby may be successively transferred to successors and assigns of the Lessee
only with the provision that any such subsequent transferee assumes all the
obligations imposed upon the Lessee by the provisions of this Lease.
(1) No property included in the Airport shall be used, leased, sold,
salvaged, or disposed of by the Lessee for other than airport purposes without
the written consent of the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in
function. This consent shall be granted only if the Administrator of the FAA or
his or her successor in function determines that the property can be used,
leased, sold, salvaged, or disposed of for other than airport purposes without
materially and adversely affecting the development, improvement, operation, or
maintenance of the
56
Airport. The term "property" as used herein, is deemed to include revenues or
proceeds (including any insurance proceeds) derived from the Airport. The term
"airport purposes" as used herein shall have the same meaning as that ascribed
to the term under 14 CFR Section 154.1(d) and shall include the use of property
to produce sources of revenue from nonaviation business at the Airport and all
uses in connection with airport purposes contemplated within the scope of the
FEIS, ROD, and Supplemental ROD.
(2) Property transferred for the development, improvement, operation
or maintenance of the Airport shall be used and maintained for the use and
benefit of the public on fair and reasonable terms, without unjust
discrimination. In furtherance of this covenant (but without limiting its
general applicability and effect), the Lessee specifically agrees: (a) that it
will keep the Airport open to all types, kinds, and classes of aeronautical use
without discrimination between such types, kinds and classes. Provided, that the
Lessee may establish such fair, equal, and not unjustly discriminatory
conditions to be met by all users of the Airport as may be necessary for the
safe and efficient operation of the Airport; and provided, that the Lessee may
prohibit or limit any given type, kind, or class of aeronautical use of the
Airport if such action is necessary for the safe operation of the Airport or
necessary to serve the civil aviation needs of the public; (b) that, in its
operation and the operation of facilities on the Airport, neither it nor any
person
57
or organization occupying space or facilities thereupon, will discriminate
against any person or class of persons by reason of race, color, creed, or
national origin in the use of any of the facilities provided for the public at
the Airport; (c) that, in any agreement, contract, lease, or other arrangement
under which a right or privilege at the Airport is granted to any person, firm
or corporation to conduct or engage in any aeronautical activity for furnishing
services to the public at the Airport, the Lessee will insert and enforce
provisions requiring the contractor: (i) to furnish said service on a fair,
equal and not unjustly discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and (ii) to
charge fair, reasonable, and not unjustly discriminatory prices for each unit
for service, provided, that the contractor may be allowed to make reasonable and
nondiscriminatory discounts, rebates, or other similar types of price reductions
to volume purchasers: (d) that, the Lessee will not exercise or grant any right
or privilege which would operate to prevent any person, firm, or corporation
operating aircraft on the Airport from performing any services on its own
aircraft with its own employees (including, but not limited to maintenance and
repair) that it may choose to perform; (e) that, in the event the Lessee itself
exercises any of the rights and privileges referred to in subparagraph (c)
above, the services involved will be provided on the same conditions as would
apply to the furnishing of such services by contractors or concessionaires of
the Lessee under the provisions of such subparagraph (c) of this Condition 23.2.
58
(3) The Lessee will not grant or permit any exclusive right for the
use of the Airport which is forbidden by Section 308 of the Federal Aviation Act
of 1958, as amended, by any person or persons to the exclusion of others in the
same class and will otherwise comply with all applicable laws. In furtherance of
this covenant (but without limiting its general applicability and effect), the
Lessee specifically agrees that, unless authorized by the Administrator, it will
not, either directly or indirectly, grant or permit any person, firm or
corporation the exclusive right to conduct any aeronautical activity on the
Airport including but not limited to, charter flights, pilot training, aircraft
rental and sight-seeing, aerial photography, crop dusting, aerial advertising
and surveying, air carrier operations, aircraft sales and services, sale of
aviation petroleum products whether or not conducted in conjunction with other
aeronautical activity, repair and maintenance of aircraft, sale of aircraft
parts, and any other activities which because of their direct relationship to
the operation of aircraft can be regarded as an aeronautical activity. The
Lessee further agrees that it will terminate as soon as possible and no later
than the earliest renewal, cancellation, or expiration date applicable thereof,
any exclusive right existing at any Airport owned or controlled by the Lessee or
hereinafter acquired and that, thereafter, no such right shall be granted.
However, nothing contained herein shall be construed to prohibit the granting or
exercise of an exclusive right for the furnishing of nonaviation products and
supplies or
59
any services of a nonaeronautical nature or to obligate the Lessee to furnish
any particular nonaeronautical service at the Airport.
(4) The Lessee shall, insofar as it is within its powers and to the
extent reasonable, adequately clear and protect the aerial approaches to the
Airport. The Lessee will, either by the acquisition and retention of easements
or other interests in or rights for the use of land airspace, or by the adoption
and enforcement of zoning regulations, prevent the construction, erection,
alteration, or growth of any structure, tree, or other object in the approach
areas of the runways of the Airport which would constitute an obstruction to air
navigation according to the criteria or standards prescribed in Part 77 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations, as applicable, according to the currently approved
airport layout plan. In addition, the Lessee will not erect or permit the
erection of any permanent structure or facility which would interfere materially
with the use, operation, or future development of the Airport, in any portion of
a runway approach area in which the Lessee has acquired, or may hereafter
acquire, a property interest permitting it to so control the use made of the
surface of the land. Insofar as is within its power and to the extent
reasonable, the Lessee will take action to restrict the use of the land adjacent
to or in the immediate vicinity of the Airport to activities and purposes
compatible with normal airport operations, including landing and takeoff of
aircraft.
60
(5) The Lessee will operate and maintain in a safe and serviceable
condition, as deemed reasonably necessary by the Administrator of the FAA, the
Airport and all facilities thereon and connected therewith which are necessary
to service the aeronautical users of the Airport, other than facilities owned or
controlled by the United States, and will not permit any activity thereon which
would interfere with its use for airport purposes. Nothing contained herein
shall be construed to require (a) that the Airport be operated for aeronautical
uses during temporary periods when snow, flood, or other climatic conditions
interfere with such operation and maintenance, or (b) repair, restoration or
replacement of any structure or facility which is substantially damaged or
destroyed due to an act of God or other condition or circumstance beyond the
control of the Lessee.
(6) The Lessee will make available all facilities of the Airport at
which the property described herein is located or developed with Federal aid,
and all those usable for the landing and taking off of aircraft, to the United
States at all times, without charge, and for use by aircraft of any agency of
the United States in common with other aircraft, except that if the use by
aircraft of any agency of the United States in common with other aircraft, is
substantial, a reasonable share, proportional to such use, of the cost of
operating and maintaining facilities so used, may be charged. Unless otherwise
determined by the FAA, or otherwise agreed to by the Lessee and the using
federal agency, substantial use of an airport by United States aircraft will be
61
considered to exist when operations of such aircraft are in excess of those
which, in the opinion of the FAA, would unduly interfere with use of the landing
area by other authorized aircraft or, that during any calendar month: (a) either
five (5) or more aircraft of any agency of the United States are regularly based
at the airport or on land adjacent thereto; or (b) the total number of movements
(counting each landing as a movement and each take-off as a movement) of
aircraft of any agency of the United States is 300 or more; or (c) the gross
accumulative weight of aircraft of any agency of the United States using the
airport (the total movements of such federal aircraft multiplied by gross
certified weights thereof) is in excess of five million pounds.
(7) The Lessee does hereby release the Government, and will take
whatever action may be required by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her
successor in function, to assure the complete release of the Government from any
and all liability the Government may be under for restoration or other damage
under any lease or other agreement covering the use by the Government of the
airport, or part thereof, owned, controlled or operated by the Lessee, upon
which, adjacent to which, or in connection with which, any property transferred
by this instrument was located or used. The Parties to this Lease acknowledge
that there is no property at Xxxxx to which this provision applies.
(8) Whenever so requested by the FAA, the Lessee will furnish
without cost to the Federal Government, for construction,
62
operation and maintenance of facilities for air traffic control activities, or
weather reporting activities, or communication activities related to air traffic
control, such areas of the property described herein or rights in buildings on
the Airport as the FAA may consider necessary or desirable for construction at
federal expense of space or facilities for such purposes, and the Lessee will
make available such areas or any portion thereof for the purposes provided
herein within four (4) months after receipt of written request from the FAA, if
such are or will be available.
(9) The Lessee will: (a) furnish the FAA with annual or special
airport financial and operational reports as may be reasonably requested using
either forms furnished by the FAA or in such manner as it elects so long as the
essential data are furnished, and (b) upon reasonable request of the FAA, make
available for inspection by any duly authorized representative of the FAA the
Airport and all Airport records and documents affecting the Airport, including
deeds, leases, operation and use agreements, regulations, and other instruments
and will furnish to the FAA a true copy of any such document which may be
reasonably requested.
(10) The Lessee will not enter into any action which would operate
to deprive it of any of the rights and powers necessary to perform or comply
with any or all of the covenants and conditions set forth herein unless by such
transaction the obligation to preform or comply with all such covenants and
63
conditions is assumed by another public agency found by the FAA to be eligible
as a public agency as defined in the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982,
as amended (P.L. 97-248) to assume such obligation and have the power,
authority, and financial resources to carry out all such obligations. If an
arrangement is made for management or operation of the Airport by any agency or
person other than the Lessee, the Lessee shall reserve sufficient rights and
authority to insure that such Airport will be operated and maintained in
accordance with these covenants and conditions, any applicable federal statute,
and applicable provisions of the Federal Aviation Regulations.
(11) The Lessee will at all times keep an up-to-date airport layout
map of the Airport showing: (a) the boundaries of the Airport and all proposed
additions thereto, together with the boundaries of all off-site areas owned or
controlled by the Lessee for airport purposes and proposed additions thereto;
(b) the location and nature of all existing and proposed airport facilities and
structures (such as runways, taxiways, aprons, terminal buildings, hangars, and
roads), including all proposed extension and reductions of existing airport
facilities; (c) the location of all existing and proposed non-aviation areas and
all existing improvements thereon and uses made thereof. The airport layout map
and each amendment, revision, or modification thereof, shall be subject to the
approval of the FAA; which approval shall be evidenced by the signature of a
duly authorized representative of the FAA on the face of the airport layout
map. The Lessee will
64
not make or permit the making of any changes or alterations in the Airport or
any of its facilities other than in conformity with the airport layout map as so
approved by the FAA, if such changes or alterations might adversely affect the
safety, utility, or efficiency of the Airport.
(12) If at any time it is determined by the FAA that there is any
outstanding right or claim of right in or to the airport property described
herein, the existence of which creates an undue risk of interference with the
operation of the Airport or the performance or compliance with covenants and
conditions set forth herein, the Lessee will, to the extent practicable,
acquire, extinguish, or modify such right or claim of right in a manner
acceptable to the FAA.
(13) In the event that any of the aforesaid terms, conditions,
reservations, or restrictions of this Condition 23 are not met, observed, or
complied with by the Lessee or any subsequent transferee, whether caused by the
legal inability of said Lessee or subsequent transferee to perform any of the
obligations herein set out or otherwise, the title, right of possession and all
their rights transferred by this instrument to the Lessee, or any portion
thereof, shall at the option of the Lessor terminate and revert to the Lessor in
its then-existing condition sixty (60) days following the date upon which demand
to this effect is made in writing by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her
successor in function, unless within said sixty (60)
65
days such default or violation shall have been cured and all such terms,
conditions, reservations and restrictions shall have been met, observed, or
complied with, or if the Lessee shall have commenced the actions necessary to
bring it into compliance with this Condition 23 in accordance with a compliance
schedule approved by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in
function, in which event said termination of Lease and reversion shall not occur
and title, right of possession, and all other rights transferred hereby, except
such, if any, as shall have previously terminated and reverted, shall remain
vested in the Lessee, its transferees, successors and assigns.
(14) If the construction as covenants of any of the foregoing
reservations and restrictions recited herein as covenants or the application of
the same as covenants in any particular instance is held invalid, the particular
reservation or restrictions in question shall be construed instead merely as
conditions, the breach of which the United States may exercise its option to
cause the title, interest, right of possession, and all other rights transferred
to the Lessee, or any portion thereof, to terminate and revert to it, and the
application of such reservations or restrictions as covenants in any other
instance and the construction of the remainder of such reservations and
restrictions as covenants shall not be affected thereby.
23.3. Lessee further agrees and understands by and between the Parties
hereto and the Lessee, by its acceptance of this
66
Lease, acknowledges its understanding of the agreement, and agrees that, as part
of the consideration for this Lease, the Lessee covenants and agrees for itself,
its successors and assigns, that: (1) the program for or in connection with
which this Lease is made will be conducted in compliance with, and the Lessee,
its successors and assigns, will comply with all requirements imposed by or
pursuant to the regulations of the United States Department of Transportation
("DOT") as in effect on the date of this Lease (49 CFR Part 21) issued under the
provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; (2) this
covenant shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of said regulations;
(3) the Lessee, its successors and assigns, will promptly take and continue to
take such action as may be necessary to effectuate this covenant; (4) the United
States shall have the right to seek judicial enforcement of this covenant; (5)
the Lessee, its successors and assigns, will: (a) obtain from any person,
including any legal entity, who, through contractual or other arrangements with
the Lessee, its successors and assigns, is authorized to provide services or
benefits under said program, a written agreement pursuant to which such other
person shall, with respect to the services or benefits which he is authorized to
provide, undertake for himself the same obligations as those imposed upon the
Lessee, its successors and assigns, by this covenant; (b) furnish the original
of such agreement to the Administrator of the FAA, or his or her successor in
function, upon his or her request therefore and shall in any event, without
regard to technical classification or designation, legal or
67
otherwise, be binding to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity for the
benefit of and in favor of the Lessor against the Lessee, its successors, and
assigns.
23.4. The operation of the Airport shall be subject to such regulations as
may be prescribed by the Administrator of the FAA or his or her successor in
function from time to time, and the Lessee shall comply with all pertinent laws,
ordinances, rules, orders, or other applicable regulations and shall hold the
United States harmless from any liability or penalty which may be imposed by
reason of any asserted violation thereof by the Lessee.
23.5. The Parties understand and agree that in the event of any conflict
between any of the provisions in this Condition 23 and any other provisions of
the Lease, the provisions in Condition 23 shall control.
CONDITION 24
GENERAL PROVISIONS
24.1. Covenant against Contingent Fees. The Lessee warrants that no person
or agency has been employed or retained to solicit or secure this Lease upon an
agreement or understanding for a commission, percentage, brokerage, or
contingent fee, excepting bona fide employees or bona fide established
commercial agencies maintained by the Lessee for the purpose of securing
business.
68
For breach or violation of this warranty, the Government shall have the right to
annul this Lease without liability or in its discretion to require the Lessee to
pay, in addition to the lease rental or consideration, the full amount of such
commission, percentage, brokerage, or contingent fee.
24.2. Officials Not to Benefit. No Member of or Delegate to Congress or
Resident Commissioner shall be admitted to any share or part of this Lease or to
any benefit to arise therefrom, but this provision shall not be construed to
extend to this Lease if made with a corporation for its general benefit.
24.3. Nondiscrimination. The Lessee shall use the leased premises in a
nondiscriminatory manner to the end that no person shall, on the ground of race,
color, religion, sex, age, handicap or national origin, be excluded from using
the facilities or obtaining the services provided thereon, or otherwise be
subjected to discrimination under any program or activities provided thereon.
(1) As used in this condition, the term "facility" means lodgings,
stores, shops, restaurants, cafeterias, restrooms, and any other facility of a
public nature in any building covered by, or built on land covered by, this
Lease.
(2) The Lessee agrees not to discriminate against any person because
of race, color, religion, sex, or
69
national origin in furnishing, or refusing to furnish, to such person the use of
any facility, including all services, privileges, accommodations, and activities
provided on the leased premises. This does not require the furnishing to the
general public the use of any facility customarily furnished by the Lessee
solely to tenants or to Air Force military and civilian personnel, and the
guests and invitees of any of them.
24.4 Gratuities. The Government may, by written notice to the Lessee,
terminate this Lease if it is found after notice and hearing, by the Secretary
of the Air Force, or his/her duly authorized representative, that gratuities in
the form of entertainment, gifts, or otherwise, were offered or given by the
Lessee, or any agent or representative of the Lessee, to any officer or employee
of the Government with a view toward securing an agreement or securing favorable
treatment with respect to the awarding or amending, or the making of any
determinations with respect to the performing of such agreement; provided that
the existence of the facts upon which the Secretary of the Air Force or his/her
duly authorized representative makes such finding, shall be an issue and may be
reviewed in any competent court. In the event this Lease is so terminated, the
Government shall be entitled (a) to pursue the same remedies against the Lessee
as it could pursue in the event of a breach of the Lease by the Lessee, and (b)
as a penalty in addition to any other damages to which it may be entitled by
law, to exemplary damages in an amount (as determined by the Secretary of the
Air Force or his/her duly
70

SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL PROCEDURES
EXHIBIT H
SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL PROCEDURES
I. Roads, street, parking lots, and other area (except airfield).
A. Ice or compacted snow can be removed with a grader or underbody
scraper. The grader will start in the center of the street and progress to the
curb line. A street plow following the grader will aid in disposing of the
windrow created by the grader.
B. Ice on base streets west of the railroad track will be treated with dry
sand to prevent vehicles from carrying chlorides onto the airfield.
C. Salt and Sand. Salt and/or sand should be used to control icing on
selected areas of base streets. Salt shall not be applied to streets west of
Portsmouth Avenue to avoid tracing salt onto the ramp. Salt use will be kept to
absolute minimum and will be applied at selected intersections and steep areas
of base streets. Salt use shall be coordinated and controlled by the Commander.
II. Airfield areas.
A. Ice on airfield pavements should be reduced to 1/4 inch thickness prior
to the application of urea. Excess water and loose snow should be removed by
snow sweepers. Urea is applied at the rate of 1 pound per 100 Sq Ft. The brine
resulting from the urea application should be swept to the edges of the runway
to aid in removing any ice thereon.
B. Serrated cutting edges on alternate scrapers will aid in removing hard
ice on the taxiways and also reduce the probability of the urea blowing off the
pavement if a cross wind is blowing.
C. Only two chemicals are approved by the Air Force for use on airfield
pavements; urea, shotted or drilled, meeting MIL Spec MIL-U-10866C, Class 2 and
isopropyl alcohol, grad B, Fed. Spec TT-l-735A.
D. Urea is spread using a GFE truck mounted spreader capable of being
calibrated. Alcohol is not normally used.

Describe present and historic physical appearance.
Although the Newington Center Historic District nomination listed in
1987 discussed the history of the entire Town Forest, it only nominated
that portion of the forest which lies outside of Xxxxx Air Force Base.
This nomination to increase the boundary specifically addresses the
section of the Newington Town Forest located within the Base boundary,
which was previously unevaluated. In 1952 the United States government
acquired approximately 99 acres of the 000 xxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx Forest.
Although it was widely believed by Newington townspeople that the original
forest land on the base property was all but cleared, this has recently
proven to be incorrect. Instead, the Air Force cleared approximately 30
acres of the forest for runway construction soon after it acquired the
land, but left the remaining 69 acre parcel in a natural state. In fact,
over the years, this forest land has been maintained by the Air Force with
appropriate forestry management practices and thus possesses a high level
of integrity.
This 69 acre section of the Town Forest which is the subject of this
boundary increase is an irregularly shaped parcel with an east-west
orientation, located to the south of the 1987 National Register District.
The Forest parcel is bounded on the west by Nimble Hill Road, which
becomes Short Street within the base territory. Much of the forest is
bounded by dry stone walls, apparently erected during 18th and 19th
centuries. A small section of barbed wire encloses the southeast corner of
the parcel. Barbed wire also runs along the northern boundary of the base
which also acts as the northern boundary for the parcel being nominated.
Originally this parcel would have been continuous with the portion of town
forest land described in the 1987 nomination. A buffer of additional
forest land surrounds the town forest property. With the exception of a
fire training area which abuts the southwest corner of the town forest,
the forested buffer is no less than 200 feet wide. An aircraft parking
apron is located to the south of the town forest with a runway further
southwest. Air Force foresters have tried to keep a buffer of larger trees
along the runway to prevent wind damage within the forest.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The forest is bisected by two roads. New Road, now a pine-needle
covered dirt road, was laid out in an east-west direction from just north
of the Parsonage (see building #7 - original 1987 nomination) in 1896.
Merrimac Drive, a paved, two lane road was laid out by the Air Force soon
after it acquired the property and extends from the union of Nimble Hill
Road and Short Street in a northeast arc across the forest parcel.
Seasonally wet areas, associated with the intermittent Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx,
are located throughout the forest land. Land elevations range from roughly
70 feet to a height of 99 feet within the forest. With the exception of
the Stone School, included as building #8 in the 1987 nomination, and the
stone walls which bound the forest, there are no manmade structures within
the forest bounds.
In terms of tree species, the town forest is dominated by the white
pine. Lesser amounts of hemlock, also coniferous, are found especially in
wet areas. Indigenous hardwood species most commonly found in the forest
are white ash, hornbeam, black birch, American beech, red oak and shagbark
hickory. The forest and base are also notable for containing some of the
best white oak in the seacoast region. Most of the region's white oak
stands were decimated in World War I and used as planking for ships. In
various areas in the forest, new growth of hardwood such as sweet birch,
beech and white oak are interspersed in the understory of the white pine
and are generally allowed by foresters to remain until they threaten the
pine from a forest management standpoint. For although these hardwoods may
be hospitable to various types of wildlife, they often prove
counter-productive to the establishment of a good pine forest by
encouraging tree growth that is less perfect and thus less desirable from
an economic view, and may demote a tree's value from saw wood to pulp.
The town forest is intensively managed by the U.S. Air Force under a
multiple use concept, the main objectives being timber production,
recreation and wildlife management, objectives which are consistent with
the original intent of the town forest. A large portion of the land has
been managed to improve cutting. Timber sales took place in the town
forest in 1983, 1986 and 1990 removed a total of over 200,000 board feet
of sawtimber, predominately white pine, as well as 53.5 cords of firewood
and 150 tons of softwood pulp. Base foresters have limited the use of
heavy machinery and timber landings are reseeded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some additional cutting takes place under the base firewood program
whereby base personnel are permitted to conduct limited tree cutting
according to forester specifications. Wood roads within the forest have
found additional use by snowmobilers and cross country skiers. Overall,
the impact of man on the historic integrity of the site is negligible and
much wildlife, including deer and turkey continue to inhabit the forest.
As indicated on the attached sketch map, base foresters have divided
the town forest parcel into twelve sections or stands, differentiated by
tree species, size, stand height and stocking. A brief description of the
stands follows.
Stand #1: This area at the northwestern corner of the forest is
notable as an area of old growth pine within the forest. It primarily
consists of large sawtimber white pine, measuring more than 13 inches in
diameter and rising to heights of over 60 feet. The stand measures
approximately 2.5 acres and is characterized by medium stocking of 40 to
70%.
Stands #2 & #3: Bisected by Merrimac Drive, these white pine stands
in the western part of the forest are primarily smaller sawtimber, 9 to 13
inches in diameter and more than 60 feet tall. Each stand measures about
5.0 acres and is well stocked with more than 70% crown closure. This area
is apparently part of the 'Pine Plantation' section planted in 1915. The
mortality of the trees was high because they were planted close together.
Stand #4: This stand consists of the north-central portion of the
forest, bounded by the base boundary line and Merrimac Drive. Mixed
hardwoods dominate, approximately 40-60 feet tall and 9-13 inches in
diameter. This 4.2 acre area is well stocked with a crown closure of more
than 70%.
Stand #5: This narrow 2 acre stand at the northern edge of the
forest, east of Merrimac Drive, is comprised of mixed hardwood and
softwood. The tree diameter at 5-9 inches is smaller than that found in
most of the forest. The stand height is 40-60 feet tall and of medium
stocking (40-70%).
Stand #6: This is a 5.6 acre stand, bounded on the northeast by
Merrimac Drive and southwest by New Road. The stand is a mixture of white
pine and mixed hardwoods of large sawtimber size, greater than 13 inches
in diameter. The stand rises more than 60 feet tall and is medium stocked.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stand #7: This wet area to the north of New Road proves a natural
habitat for hemlock as well as white pines. The 5.3 acre area is well
covered and consists of large sawtimber/poles at heights in excess of 60
feet.
Stand #8: The largest of the stands in the forest, this 16.9 acre
area is bounded by Merrimac Drive and New Road to the north and the base
boundary to the south. It consists primarily of white pines, large
sawtimber/poles, rising to heights over 60 feet with medium coverage.
Stand #9: Containing the highest land elevation in the forest (99
feet), this small, 1.6 acre young white pine stand is located on the south
side of New Road and consists of seedlings and saplings ranging from 20 to
40 feet tall, with medium coverage. Also notable are the few American
chestnut trees located in this stand. The American chestnut tree has been
largely extinct since 1904 when blight wiped out most of the species.
These chestnuts, as is common, unfortunately bear sterile fruit.
Stand #10: This is a 3.6 acre stand of uneven age, consisting of
hardwood, oak, beech and birch with an understory of pine. The tree size
is primarily that of small sawtimber, 9 to 13 inches in diameter. The
medium stocked stand displays a variety of tree heights.
Stand #11: Located at the southeast corner of the forest parcel,
this 1.3 acre stand displays white pine and mixed hardwood in excess of 60
feet tall and 9 to 13 inches in diameter. Stocking is good,
[ILLEGIBLE].
Stand #12: This is a large 11.9 acre white pine and mixed
[ILLEGIBLE] located in the northeast part of the forest, consisting of
large sawtimber/poles in excess of 60 feet tall and good stocking, in
excess of 70%.

The 69 acre Newington Town Forest parcel which is the subject of
this boundary increase is eligible for the National Register of Historic
Places under criterion A (for settlement) because it represents the
balance of the surviving common land already included as contributing to
the Newington Center Historic District listed on the Register in 1987. It
possesses a high level of integrity of location, setting, materials,
feeling and association. The town forest property is significant, not only
as common land set aside beginning in 1840 but also as open space
retaining the Center's landscape and setting which are integral to the
district. Although town ownership of the land was interrupted by the
acquisition of the land for Xxxxx Air Force Base in 1932, the historic use
of the land as forest has continued to the present. In fact, the forest
has continued to be held in public ownership for public benefit and under
the stewardship of the base foresters its historic integrity has been
carefully maintained and enhanced.
Newington's Town Forest has been referred to as the first town
forest in the country although published reference to this or other early
forests has found to be lacking. As has been discussed in the 1987
nomination, in 1640 much of the land which was to become a community
forest was reserved as common ground or unallotted lands for the settlers
on Bloody Point, then a section of Dover. Part of the land was cleared for
pasture and part was held as timberland to be used for building and for
fuel. At a public town meeting at the meetinghouse on Dover Neck May 22,
1710 approximately 50-60 acres was formally set aside with the intent of
preserving some of the town's valuable natural resources from development
and overuse. This action is generally considered to be the beginning of
the Newington Town Forest. (1)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historically the town forest can be divided into three sections,
known as the Church Lot, the Parsonage Lot and the Xxxxxxx Lot. The Church
Lot, lying west of what is now Nimble Hill Road, originally contained 42
acres. Most of this area is contained in the 1987 Newington Center
National Register District; the southern portion of the Church Lot was
part of the property acquired by the Air Force in 1952 and subsequently
destroyed for a runway.
The 69 acre town forest [ILLEGIBLE] includes sections of both the
Parsonage and Xxxxxxx Lots. The Parsonage Lot, consisted of twenty acres
of "pitch plains" granted to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx in 1689. The lot was
purchased by the Town of Newington along with the Old Parsonage (building
#7, original 1987 nomination) in 1765 for the minister. The town at that
time already owned about 20 acres adjacent which was also common land.
This area generally corresponds to stands 1, 2, 3, 8 and 9 as delineated
on the attached sketch map. During the 19th century, the Town's selectmen
managed this woodlot, giving fuel to the town poor, allowing citizens to
cut their winter supply of wood and selling the growth on the lot to fund
town projects such as construction of a town library, water system and
school. Portions of stands 2 & 3 were cut in 1912, the area was reseeded
with 8,000 trees in 1915. Portions of stand 8 were cut in 1894 and parts
of stands 7 and 9 were cut in 1919. (2)
The Xxxxxxx Lot generally refers to the thirty acres north of New
Road or stands 4, 5, 6, 7 and 12 on the sketch map. The Town apparently
held and managed this forest since Revolutionary days. The first record of
cuttings in this area appeared in 1874 when the town voted to sell timber
rights on twenty four acres to pay off the Civil War debt. In 1919 the
growth on the balance of six acres of the lot was sold. In 1922 about 200
cords of wood were sold. The Report of the Forestry Commission in 1924
notes that "at the present time the cut-over lands are coming back to pine
with a few blocks of mature pine and hardwoods." (3)

VERBAL BOUNDARY DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION
The boundary of the nominated district is increased to include that
historic acreage which survives from the Newington Town Forest within the
Xxxxx Air Force Base and which is eligible for listing in the National
Register of Historic Places. The area south of the 1987 district and to
the west of Short Street purposely has been excluded from the district
boundary due to the clearing of the former woodland for a runway. The
remaining town forest property is bounded on the west by Nimble Hill
Road/Short Street, on the north by the Air Force Base boundary which is
marked by a barbed wire fence and on the remaining sides by a stone wall.
Boundaries are sufficient to convey the original context and to protect
it. Boundaries are indicated on the attached sketch map.

[ILLEGIBLE] original data in the form of field notes, photographs, and other
materials.
Some individual property information, such as specific locational data,
may be highly sensitive to disclosure, because of the threat of vandalism. If
the objectives of the documentation effort are such that a report containing
confidential information such as specific site locations or information on
religious practices is necessary, it may be appropriate to prepare a separate
report for public distribution. The additional report should summarize that
information that is not under restricted access in a format most useful to the
expected groups of potential users. Peer reviews of draft reports is recommended
to ensure that state-of-the-art technical reports are produced.
Availability: Results must be made available to the full range of
potential users. This can be accomplished through a variety of means including
publication of results in monographs and professionals journals and distribution
of the report to libraries or technical clearinghouses such as the National
Technical Information Service in Springfield, Virginia.
Curation
Archeological specimens and records are part of the documentary record of
an archeological site. They must be curated for future use in research,
interpretation, preservation, and resource management activities. Curation of
important archeological specimens and records should be provided for in the
development of any archeological program or project.
Archeological specimens and records that should be curated are those that
embody the information important to history and prehistory. They include
artifacts and their associated documents, photographs, maps, and field notes;
materials of an environmental nature such as bones, shells, soil and sediment
samples, wood, seeds, pollen, and their associated records; and the products and
associated records of laboratory procedures such as thin sections, and sediment
fractions that result from the analysis of archeological data.
Satisfactory curation occurs when:
1. Curation facilities have adequate space, facilities, and professional
personnel.
2. Archeological specimens are maintained so that their information values
are not lost through deterioration, and records are maintained to a professional
archival standard.
3. Curated collections are accessible to qualified researchers within a
[ILLEGIBLE] requested and
4. Collections are available for interpretive purposes, subject to
reasonable security precautions.

Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic Preservation Projects
General Standards for Historic Preservation Projects
The following general standards apply to all treatments undertaken on
historic properties listed in the National Register.
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a
property that requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site
and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building,
structure, or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or
alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should
be avoided when possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of
their own time. Alterations which have no historical basis and which seek to
create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which have taken place in the course of time are evidence of
the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its
environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right,
and this significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive architectural features or examples of skilled craftsmanship
which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with
sensitivity.
[ILLEGIBLE] shall be repaired rather than replaced wherever possible. In the
event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being
replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities.
Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on
accurate descriptions of features substantiated by historical, physical, or
pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of
different architectural elements from other buildings or structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the
gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will
damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and preserve
archeological resources affected by or adjacent to, any acquisition,
stabilization, preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, or reconstruction
project.
Specific Standards for Historic Preservation Projects
The following specific standards for each treatment are to be used in
conjunction with the eight general standards and, in each case, begin with
number 9. For example, in evaluating acquisition projects, include the eight
general standards plus the four specific standards listed under standards for
Acquisition. The specific standards differ from those published for use in
Historic Preservation Fund grant-in-aid projects (38 CFR Part 68) in that they
discuss more fully the treatment of archeological properties.
Standards for Acquisition
9. Careful consideration shall be given to the type and extent of property
rights which are required to assure the preservation of the historic resource.
The preservation objectives shall determine the exact property rights to be
acquired.
10. Properties shall be acquired in fee simple when absolute ownership is
required to insure their preservation.
11. The purchase of less-than-fee-simple interests, such as open space or
facade easements, shall undertaken when a limited interest achieves the
preservation objective.
12. Every reasonable effort shall be made to acquire sufficient property
with the historic resource to protect its historical, archeological,
architectural or cultural significance.
44738 Federal Register / Vol. 48 No. 190 / Thursday, September 29, 1983 /
Notices
================================================================================
Standard for Protection
9. Before applying protective measures which are generally of a temporary
nature and imply future historic preservation work, an analysis of the actual or
anticipated threats to the property shall be made.
10. Protection shall safeguard the physical condition or environment of a
property or archeological site from further deterioration or damage caused by
weather or other natural, animal, or human intrusions.
11. If any historic material or architectural features are removed, they
shall be properly recorded and, if possible, stored for future study or reuse.
Standards for Stabilization
9. Stabilization shall reestablish the structural stability of a property
through the reinforcement of loadbearing members or by arresting deterioration
leading to structural failure. Stabilization shall also reestablish weather
resistant conditions for a property.
10. Stabilization shall be accomplished in such a manner that it detracts
as little as possible from the property's appearance and significance. When
reinforcement is required to reestablish structural stability, such work shall
be concealed wherever possible so as not to intrude upon or detract from the
aesthetic and historical or archeological quality of the property, except where
concealment would result in the alteration or destruction of historically or
archeologically significant material or spaces. Accurate documentation of
stabilization procedures shall be kept and made available for future needs.
11. Stabilization work that will result in ground disturbance shall be
preceded by sufficient archeological investigation to determine whether
significant subsurface features or artifacts will be affected. Recovery,
curation and documentation of archeological features and specimens shall be
undertaken in accordance with appropriate professional methods and techniques.
Standards for Preservation
9. Preservation shall maintain the existing form, integrity, and materials
of a building structure, or site. Archeological sites shall be preserved
undisturbed whenever feasible and practical. Substantial reconstruction or
restoration of lost features generally are not included in a preservation
undertaking.
10. Preservation shall include techniques of arresting or retarding the
deterioration of a property through a program of ongoing maintenance.
11. Use of destructive techniques, such as archeological excavation, shall
be limited to providing sufficient information for research, interpretation and
management needs.
Standards for Rehabilitation
9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing
properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not
destroy significant historic, architectural, or cultural material and such
design is compatible with the size, scale, color, material, and character of the
property, neighborhood, or environment.
10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be
done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations were to be removed
in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be
unimpaired.
Standards for Restoration
9. Every reasonable effort shall be made to use a property for is
originally intended purpose or to provide a compatible use that will require
minimum alteration to the property and its environment.
10. Reinforcement required for structural stability or the installation of
protective or code required mechanical systems shall be concealed wherever
possible so as not to intrude or detract from the property's aesthetic and
historical qualities, except where concealment would result in the alteration or
destruction of historically significant materials or spaces.
11. Restoration work such as the demolition of non-contributing additions
that will result in ground or structural disturbance shall be preceded by
sufficient archeological investigation to determine whether significant
subsurface or structural features or artifacts will be affected. Recovery,
curation and documentation of archeological features and specimens shall be
undertaken in accordance with appropriate professional methods and techniques.
Standards for Reconstruction
9. Reconstruction of a part or all of a property shall be undertaken only
when such work is essential to reproduce a significant missing feature in a
historic district or scene, and when a contemporary design solution is not
acceptable. Reconstruction of archeological sites generally is not appropriate.
10. Reconstruction of all or a part of a historic property shall be
appropriate when the reconstruction is essential for understanding and
interpreting the value of a historic district, or when no other building,
structure, object, or landscape feature with the same associative value has
survived and sufficient historical or archeological documentation exists to
insure an accurate reproduction of the original.
11. The reproduction of missing elements accomplished with new materials
shall duplicate the composition, design, color, texture, and other visual
qualities of the missing element. Reconstruction of missing architectural or
archeological features shall be based upon accurate duplication of original
features substantiated by physical or documentary evidence rather than upon
conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural features from
other buildings.
12. Reconstruction of a building or structure on an original site shall be
preceded by a thorough archeological investigation to locate and identify all
subsurface features and artifacts. Recovery, curation and documentation of
archeological features and specimens shall be undertaken in accordance with
professional methods and techniques.
13. Reconstruction shall include measures to preserve any remaining
original fabric, including foundations, subsurface, and ancillary elements. The
reconstruction of missing elements. The reconstruction of missing elements and
features shall be done in such a manner that the essential form and integrity of
the original surviving features are unimpaired.
Secretary of the Interior Guidelines for Historic Preservation Projects
The guidelines for the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Historic
Preservation Projects, not included here because of their length, may be
obtained separately from the National Park Service.
Professional Qualifications Standards
The following requirements are those used by the National Park Service,
and have been previously published in the Code of Federal Regulations, 36 CFR
Part 61. The qualifications define minimum education and experience required to
perform identification, evaluation, registration, and treatment activities. In
some cases, additional areas or levels of expertise may be needed, depending on
the complexity of the task and the nature of the historic properties involved.
In the following definitions, a year of full-time professional experience need
not consist of a continuous year of fulltime work but

RECITALS
A. The Air Force and the PDA are parties to Lease No. USAF-PEA-l-92-032 as
modified by Supplemental Agreement No. 1 dated August 4, 1992 and by
Supplemental Agreement No. 2 dated July 15, 1993 (collectively the

I") comprising the former Xxxxx Air Force Base, New Hampshire ("Xxxxx
AFB").
B. Premises I are subject to an Amended Application for Airport Property
dated April 14, 1992 ("Application") filed by the PDA with the Air Force
pursuant to which PDA seeks transfer of title for Premises I as airport
purpose surplus property in accordance with applicable provisions of
federal law. The Application was accepted by the Air Force on April 14,

possession of Premises I and to use, operate, maintain and develop said
Premises pending final disposition to PDA.
C. The PDA has also filed with the Air Force Amendment No. 1, dated March 24,

modified by this Supplemental Agreement No. 3.
D. The Secretary of the Air Force is entering into this Supplemental

surplus property comprising Premises II hereby leased would facilitate
State and local economic readjustment efforts by providing new
opportunities for commercial and industrial redevelopment that will spur
job creation and accelerate economic redevelopment, and leasing such
property pending its conveyance by deed will be advantageous to the United
States and in the public interest. The Secretary of the Air Force is also
entering into this Supplemental Agreement No. 3 pursuant to the
LEASE NO. USAF-PEA 1-92-032
general authority contained in 49 U.S.C. ss.ss.47151-47153 and other

the provisions of this Lease ("Term").
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, as modified by
Supplemental Agreement No. 3, the parties acknowledge that a deed(s)
of Premises I, Premises II or any portion of Premises I and/or
Premises II may be conveyed to PDA from time to time during the Term

purposes as originally requested in Amendment No. 1. (The
Application, as amended by Amendment No. 1, as confirmed by the
October 20, 1995 letter, may be referred to as the "Amended
Application"). The FAA approved the Amended Application on December
12, 1995, and March 18, 1997, and the Air Force executed an
acceptance of the Amended Application on June 26, 1997 ("Acceptance
II"). The Amended Application and Acceptance II are both attached to

purposes for the use and benefit of the public, subject to and
in accordance with all of the terms and conditions set out in
the Application and Acceptance and Amended Application and
Acceptance II and the Lease, as amended by this Supplemental
Agreement No. 3. The term "airport purposes" as used in this
Condition 6.1 shall have the same meaning as that ascribed to
such term under 14 C.F.R. 154.1(d) and shall include the use
of property to produce sources of revenue from non-aviation

spills, storage, disposal, or any other acts or omissions by the
Lessee (or sublessee, or licensee), its officers, agents, employees,
contractors, or sublessees, or licensees, or the invitees of any of
them, giving rise to Government liability, civil or criminal, or
responsibility under Federal, State, or local environmental laws.
This Condition shall survive the expiration or termination of the
Lease, and the Lessee's, sublessee's or licensee's obligations
hereunder shall apply whenever the Government incurs costs or

creates a potential source of airborne fibers. Such ACM shall be
referred to herein as "damaged or deteriorated." The Government
agrees to xxxxx all such existing damaged or deteriorated ACM as
provided in this Condition 10.A.6. The Government may choose the
most economical means of abating any such damaged or deteriorated
ACM, which may include removal or containment, or a combination of
removal and containment. The foregoing Government obligation does
not apply to ACM which is not damaged or deteriorated to the extent
that it creates a potential source of airborne fibers at the time
Lessee takes possession of the Leased Premises and which may become
damaged or deteriorated by the Lessee's, sublessee's or licensee's
activities. ACM which later during the period of this Lease becomes
damaged or deteriorated through the passage of time, or as a
consequence of the Lessee's, sublessee's or licensee's activities
under this Lease, including but not limited to any emergency, will
be removed or remediated by the Lessee at its sole cost and expense.
Notwithstanding Condition 10.A.5 above, in an emergency, the Lessee

of the Lease, the Government assumes no liability to the Lessee, its
sublessees or licensees should implementation of the EFA, the Xxxxx
AFB IRP, or other hazardous waste cleanup requirements, whether
imposed by law, regulatory agencies, or the Air Force or the
Department of Defense, interfere with the Lessee's, any sublessee's
or licensee's use of the Leased Premises. The Lessee, sublessee or
licensee shall have no claim against the United States or any
officer, agent, employee or contractor thereof on account of any
such interference, whether due to entry, performance of remedial or
removal investigations, or exercise of any right with respect to the
EFA or the Xxxxx AFB IRP or under this Lease or otherwise.
10.A.9. The Lessee agrees to comply with the provisions of any
health or safety plan in effect under the Xxxxx AFB IRP or any

licensees. The Government shall not be liable for the cost of proper
disposal of any hazardous waste generated by the Lessee, its
sublessees or licensees in the event of failure by the Lessee,
sublessees or licensees to dispose properly of such wastes. The
Lessee, sublessee or licensee is required to obtain and use a
separate United States Environmental Protection Agency hazardous
waste generator identification number in the Lessee's name for
disposal of hazardous wastes generated by Lessee activities.
10.A.11. The Lessee, any sublessees and licensees must maintain and
make available to the Air Force all records, inspection logs, and

conditions or applicable requirements and shall be approved by all
agencies having regulatory jurisdiction over such plan. The plan
shall be independent of Air Force spill prevention and response
plans. The Lessee shall not rely on use of Xxxxx AFB personnel or
equipment in execution of its plan. The Lessee shall file a copy of
the approved plan and approved amendments thereto with the Site
Manager within fifteen (15) days of approval. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, should the Government provide any personnel or equipment,
whether for initial fire response and/or spill containment or

disposal of surplus property in a manner consistent with the Report of the
Defense Secretary's Commission on Base Realignments and Closures," December 29,
1988 (Commission Report); and
WHEREAS, the Air Force has determined that disposal of Xxxxx Air Force Base
(Xxxxx AFB or the Base), New Hampshire, will have an effect upon historic
properties listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of
Historic Places, and has consulted with the New Hampshire State Historic
Preservation Officer (New Hampshire SHPO) and the Advisory Council on Historic
Preservation (Council), pursuant to 36 CFR Part 800, regulations implementing
Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) (16 U.S.C.
470h-2(f)); and
WHEREAS, the historic properties include the Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx Estate, the Old
Stone School House, the Newington Center Historic District as amended, and

WHEREAS, the Town of Newington, the Xxxxx Development Authority, and the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service participated in the consultation and have been
invited to concur in this Memorandum of Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Air Force, New Hampshire SHPO, and the Council agree that
the undertaking shall be implemented in accordance with the following
stipulations in order to take into account the effect of the understanding on
historic properties.
Stipulations
The Air Force, or the transferee as specified under any quit claim deed or other
document transferring any parcel of Xxxxx AFB on which there is a site covered
by this agreement (Transferee), as the case may be, will ensure the following
measures are carried out.
I. Transfer of Property
(a) After the filing of the record of decision for disposal of any
parcel of the Base on which there is a site covered by this
agreement, the Air Force will transfer the property with an
appropriate preservation covenant, substantially similar to the one
set out in Attachment A to this agreement. The covenant will
obligate the Transferee to:
(1) comply with NHPA and any applicable State statues and local
ordinances that will require the Transferee to protect
cultural resources and preserve historic properties;
2
(2) preserve and maintain the historic properties, located on the
parcel of property received, in accordance with the
approximate recommended approaches in The Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for
Rehabilitating Historic Buildings;
(3) consult with the New Hampshire SHPO and the Council, pursuant
to 36 CFR Part 800, prior to implementation of any activity
that could result in adverse effects, as defined in 36 CFR
Section 800.9, to the identified historic resources;
(4) take prompt action upon acquisition of any standing historic
structures, to secure all of them from the elements,
vandalism, or arson and make any emergency stabilization; and
(5) stop work promptly should any archaeological site be
discovered during any project activities and obtain the
comments of the New Hampshire SHPO regarding appropriate
treatment of the site.
(b) The Air Force will notify the New Hampshire SHPO and the Council of
the name of each transferee of a parcel of the Base on which there
is a site cover by this agreement, upon execution of the quit claim
deed or other transfer document, and will provide the New Hampshire

ATTACHMENT A
Preservation Covenant
XXX. Grantee [or if not a deed, insert other appropriate designation of
Transferee, e.g., Lessee] hereby covenants on behalf of itself, its successors
and assigns, to preserve and maintain [attributes or character defining features
of the structure, site, or forest] [name of property] located in the County of
Rockingham, State of New Hampshire, more particularly described as [insert legal
description] in accordance with the recommended approaches in The Secretary of
the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and the Guidelines for
Rehabilitating Historic Buildings (National Park Service, 1990) [or specify
other relevant standard, management plan, archaeological treatment plan, etc.,
with full citation] in order to preserve and enhance those qualities that make
[name of property] eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic
Places. This covenant shall be a binding servitude upon [name of property] and
shall be deemed to run with the land.
(1) No construction, alteration, remodeling, demolition, disturbance
of the ground surface, or other action shall be undertaken or permitted to be
undertaken on [name of property] that would materially affect the integrity or
the appearance of the attributes described above without the prior written
permission of the New Hampshire State Historic Preservation Officer ("New
Hampshire SHPO"). Should the New Hampshire SHPO object to the proposed treatment
within thirty (30) days of receipt of the request and cannot resolve the
differences, Grantee shall request the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation
("Council") to resolve the dispute. The Council will provide comments within
fifteen (15) days of receiving the request from Grantee. Grantee shall consider
the Council's comments in reaching its decision on the treatment. Grantee will
report its decision to the Council, and if practicable, it will do so prior to
initiating the treatment.
1
(2) Upon acquisition of any standing historic structure, Grantee
will take prompt action to secure all of them from the elements, vandalism, or
arson and will make any emergency stabilization. Grantee will make every effort
to retain or reuse, to the extent practicable, the historic structures.
(3) Should any archaeological site be discovered during any project
activities, Grantee will stop work promptly and obtain the comments of the New
Hampshire SHPO regarding appropriate treatment of the site. The final mitigation
plan shall be approved by the New Hampshire SHPO.
(4) Grantee will allow the New Hampshire SHPO or his or her
designee, at all reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice to Grantee,
to inspect [name of property] in order to ascertain whether Grantee is complying
with the conditions of this preservation covenant.
(5) Grantee will provide the New Hampshire SHPO and the Council with
a written summary of actions taken to implement the provisions of this
preservation covenant within one (1) year after the effective date of the
transfer of (name of property]. Similar reports will be submitted to the New
Hampshire SHPO and the Council each January thereafter until the reuse plan has
been completed.
(6) Failure of the New Hampshire SHPO to exercise any right or
remedy granted under this covenant shall not have the effect of waiving or
limiting the exercise by the New Hampshire SHPO of any other right or remedy or
the invocation of such right or remedy at any other time.
2
(7) Grantee may, with the prior written approval of the New
Hampshire SHPO, modify for good cause any or all of the foregoing restrictions.
Prior to such action, Grantee will notify the Council of the proposed
modification and allow them thirty (30) days to comment.
This covenant is binding on Grantee, its successors and assigns, in perpetuity.
The restrictions, stipulations and covenants contained herein shall be inserted
by Grantee, its successors and assigns, verbatim or by express reference in any
deed or other legal instrument by which it divests itself of either the fee
simple title or any lesser estate in [name of property], or any part thereof.

WITNESSETH:
1. The Secretary of the Air Force is authorized by 49 U.S.C. xx.xx. 47151-47153
to transfer without expense to the United States and on terms prescribed by the
Secretary, ownership of any personal property approved for developing,

2. Pursuant to the approved airport application dated April 14, 1992 and
Amendment No.1 dated June 26, 1997, the recipient has agreed to accept ownership
of the personal property on an "as is, where is" basis for the purposes stated.
3. The recipient agrees to accept the personal property upon execution of this
document and shall maintain and use the property in a prudent manner as may be
required under Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) rules.
4. The recipient shall indemnify, save harmless, and defend the transferor from
and against all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, judgments, demands,

use for the purposes for which it was donated within one year of donation, after
which it will be disposed of by the Government in accordance with 41 CFR

7. At such time as donated personal property is no longer needed for aviation
purposes, or if it has outlived its useful life, it may be disposed of in
accordance with the Airport Compliance Requirements, FAA Order 5190.6A.
8. Upon the failure of the recipient to observe any of the conditions set forth
in this Transfer Document, as determined by the Administrator of the FAA, title

maintenance, freight, transportation, and other charges attributable to such
possession. Recipient may dispute any reversion of property through procedures
set out in the Administrative Disputes Resolution Act, 5 U.S.C. ss. 571-583.
9. ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE. The recipient agrees that in compliance with Title
VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Section 606 of the Federal Property and
Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended, and Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, no person shall, on the ground of race,

AIRPORT JOINT USE AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT made and entered into this ____ day of August, 1994, by and
between the XXXXX DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY, an authority established under New
Hampshire RSA 12-G, with a place of business at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 0,
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx ("Authority"); and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
acting by and through the Chief, National Guard Bureau, and the STATE OF NEW
HAMPSHIRE, acting by and through its Adjutant General (collectively,
"Government").
RECITALS:
A. The Authority established and operates a civil airport facility known
as Xxxxx International Tradeport on a portion of the lands comprising the former
Xxxxx Air Force Base, located in the Towns of Greenland and Newington and City
of Portsmouth, Rockingham County, New Hampshire ("Airport"), pursuant to a
certain application for a public benefit transfer of the property under Section
13(g) of the Surplus Property Act of 1944 ("SPA"), as amended (50 U.S.C.A. App.
Section 1622(g)) and a certain lease of the property pending its final
disposition by deed, both instruments dated April 14, 1992.
B. The Airport and Airways Improvement Act of 1982 (Public Law 97-248,
September 2, 1982, 49 U.S.C.A. App. Sections 2201 et. seq.), as amended,
provides that all of the facilities of the Airport developed with Federal
financial assistance and all those facilities usable for landing and take off of
aircraft will be available to the United States for use by Government aircraft
in common with other aircraft at all times without charge unless use by
Government aircraft is substantial, and if use is substantial, a charge may be
made for a reasonable share, proportional to such use, of the cost of operating
and maintaining such facilities.
C. The Government requires substantial use of the flying facilities at the
Airport for the Air National Guard, as well as for other transient government
aircraft.
D. The Authority is agreeable to such substantial use, in common with
other users of the Airport, of such flying facilities by the Government under
this Agreement.
E. The Government and the Authority desire to provide for the delineation
of responsibility for operation and maintenance of the flying facilities jointly
used, in common with others, at the Airport, and to establish the Government's
reasonable share, proportional to such use, of the cost of operating and
maintaining such jointly used flying facilities.
2
F. It is in the interest of the Government to continue to assist the
Authority during a transitional start-up operational period to assure an orderly
transition of the responsibilities for operation and maintenance of the flying
facilities of the Airport and the uninterrupted availability of necessary
services to Government aircraft during such transitional period.
G. The Authority intends to continue to actively promote development of
aviation activities at the Airport. As a result of such development, the parties
anticipate annual amounts payable by the Government for its use of the jointly
used flying facilities of the Airport should decrease under future agreements
through the probable reduction in the Government's proportionate use of such
jointly used flying facilities.
AGREEMENT:
1. DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the jointly used flying
facilities of the Airport are the runways, taxiways, lighting systems,
navigational aids, airport control tower, markings and appurtenances open to

and facilities thereto as may be added or constructed ("Jointly Used Flying
Facilities"). The Jointly Used Flying Facilities do not include land areas used
exclusively by the Government or the terminal buildings, hangars,
non-government
3
parking aprons and ramps, or other areas or structures used exclusively by the
Authority or its lessees, sublessees, permittees, or licensees for civilian or
commercial purposes.
2. JOINT USE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Government shall have the use, in common with other users of the Airport,
present and prospective, of the Jointly Used Flying Facilities, together with
all necessary and convenient rights of ingress and egress to and from the
Jointly Used Flying Facilities and the Air National Guard installation and other
Government facilities located on the Airport. Routes for ingress and egress for
the Government's employees, agents, customers, and contractors shall not unduly
restrict the Government in its operations.
3. AUTHORITY RESPONSIBILITIES. The Authority will be responsible for the
following services and functions, to standards in accordance with Paragraph 6:

11
8. FIRE PROTECTION AND CRASH RESCUE.
a. The Government maintains a fire fighting and crash rescue

of the existing capabilities of this organization, the Government agrees to
respond to fire and crash rescue emergencies involving civil aircraft, subject
to subparagraphs 8b, 8c, and 8d below.
b. The Authority agrees to release, acquit, and forever discharge
the Government, its officers, agents and employees from all liability arising
out of or connected with the use of, or failure to supply in individual cases,

Authority further agrees to the extent allowed under applicable law to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the United States, its officers, agents and
employees against any and all claims, of whatever description, arising out of or
connected with such use of, or failure to supply in individual cases, government
fire fighting and crash rescue equipment or personnel, except where such claims
arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
officers, agents, or employees of the United States. The Authority agrees to

authorized for military operations at the Airport. The Government shall have no
obligation to maintain any fire fighting and crash rescue organization or to
provide any increase in fire fighting and crash rescue equipment or personnel or
to conduct any training or inspection for the purposes of this paragraph. It is
further understood that the Government's fire fighting and crash rescue
equipment shall not be routinely parked on the airfield during non-emergency
landings of civil aircraft.
e. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Government operates
and maintains a fire fighting and crash rescue organization for military
operations at the Airport, the Government will, consistent with military
operations as determined by the Government, cooperate with the federal
government agencies having jurisdiction over civil aircraft in the conduct of
periodic inspections of fire fighting and crash rescue response time.
13
9. RECORDS AND BOOKS OF ACCOUNT. The Authority agrees to keep records and
books of account, showing the actual cost to it of all items of labor,

fulfilling the obligations of this Agreement, and the Comptroller General of the
United States or any of his or her duly authorized representatives shall, until
the expiration of three (3) years after final payment, have access at all times
to such records and books of account, or to any directly pertinent books,
documents, papers, and records of any of the Authority's contractors or
subcontractors engaged in the performance of and involving transactions related
to this Agreement. The Authority further agrees that representatives of the Air
Force Audit Agency or any other designated representative of the Government
shall have the same right of access to such records, books of account, documents
and papers as is available to the Comptroller General.

giving at least sixty (60) days' notice thereof in writing to the Authority.
14
b. (1) The Government by giving written, notice to the Authority may
terminate the right of the Authority to proceed under this Agreement if it is
found, after notice and hearing by the Secretary of the Air Force or his or her
duly authorized representative, that gratuities in the form of entertainment,
gifts, or otherwise, were offered or given by the Authority, or any agent or
representative of the Authority, to any officer or employee of the Government
with a view toward securing this Agreement or securing favorable treatment with
respect to the awarding or amending, or the making of any determinations with
respect to the performing of such agreement, provided that the existence of the
facts upon which the Secretary of the Air Force or his or her duly authorized
representative makes such findings shall be an issue and may be reviewed in any
competent court.
(2) In the event this Agreement is terminated as provided in
subparagraph (1) above, the Government shall be entitled to pursue the same
remedies against the Authority as it could pursue in the event of a breach of
the Agreement by the Authority, and in addition to any other damages to which it
may be entitled by law, the Government shall be entitled to exemplary damages in
an amount (as determined by the Secretary of the Air Force or his or her duly
authorized representative) which shall be not less than three nor more than ten
times the costs incurred by the Authority in providing any such gratuities to
any such officer or employee.
15
(3) The rights and remedies of the Government provided in this
Paragraph 11b shall not be exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and
remedies provided by law or under this Agreement.
12. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to the activities
conducted under this Agreement.
b. Assignment. The Authority shall neither transfer nor assign this
Agreement without the written consent of the Government, which shall not be

consequence of the performance of responsibilities under this Agreement.
d. Third Party Benefit. No member or delegate to Congress shall be
admitted to any share or part of this Agreement or to any benefit that may arise

instrument embodies the entire financial arrangement of the parties regarding
the use of the Jointly Used Flying Facilities by the Government, and there are
no understandings or agreements, verbal or otherwise, between the parties in

Authority against the Government in the use of the Jointly Used Flying
Facilities during the term of this Agreement.
f. Modification. This Agreement may only be modified or amended by

VII. CONSULTATION WITH EPA AND THE STATE
Review and Comment Process for Draft and Final Documents
--------------------------------------------------------
7.1 Applicability: The provisions of this Section establish the procedures
that shall be used by the Parties to provide each other with
appropriate technical support, notice, review, comment, and response
to comments regarding RI/FS and RD/RA documents, specified herein as
either primary or secondary documents. In accordance with XXXXXX
Xxxxxxx 000, 00 X.X.X. 0000, and 10 U.S.C. 2705, the Air Force will be
responsible for issuing primary and secondary documents to EPA and the
State unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing. As of the
effective date of this Agreement, all draft, draft final, and final
reports for any deliverable document identified herein shall be
prepared, distributed and subject to dispute in accordance with
paragraphs 7.2 through 7.10 below. The designation of a document as
"draft" or "final" is solely for purposes of consultation with EPA and
the State in accordance with this Section. Such designation does not
affect the obligation of the Parties to issue documents, which may be
referred to herein as "final", to the public for review and comment as
appropriate and as required by law.
7.2 General Process for RI/FS and RD/RA Documents:
(a) Primary documents include those reports, as specified in Section
7.3 below, that are major, discrete portions of RI/FS and/or
RD/RA activities. Primary documents are initially issued by the
Air Force in draft subject to review and comment by EPA and the
State. Following receipt of comments on a particular draft
primary document, the Air Force will respond to the comments
received and issue a draft final primary document which will be
subject to dispute resolution. The draft final primary document
will become the final primary document thirty (30) days after
issuance of a draft final if dispute resolution is not invoked,
or as modified by decision of the dispute resolution process.
18
(b) Secondary documents include those reports that are discrete
portions of the primary documents and are typically input or
feeder documents. Secondary documents are issued by the Air Force
in draft subject to review and comment by EPA and the State.
Although the Air Force will respond to comments received, the
draft secondary documents may be finalized in the context of the
corresponding primary documents. A secondary document may be
disputed at the time the corresponding draft final document is
issued.
7.3 Primary Reports:
(a) The Air Force shall complete and transmit draft reports for the
following primary documents to EPA and the State for review and
comment for each RA or OU (Operable Unit) and final remedy in
accordance with the provisions of this Section:
1) Scope(s) of Work
2) RI/FS Work Plans, including Pilot Testing, and Sampling and
Analysis Plans; and
3) Quality Assurance Project Plans
4) Community Relations Plan (may be amended as appropriate to
address RAs or OUs)
5) RI Reports (including Risk Assessments)
6) FS Reports (including Detailed Analysis of Alternatives)
7) Proposed Plans
8) Records of Decisions (RODS) (including no-action decisions)
9) Sixty Percent (60%) Preliminary Remedial Design
10) Final Remedial Designs (RDs)
11) Remedial Action Work Plans (to include schedules for RA,
operation and maintenance plans, Construction Quality
Assurance Plan, and Contingency Plan)
19
(b) Only the draft final reports for the primary documents identified
above shall be subject to dispute resolution. The Air Force shall
complete and transmit draft primary documents in accordance with
the timetable and deadlines established in Section XV, Deadlines,
of this Agreement. Primary documents may include target dates for
subtasks as provided in Section 7.4. The purpose of target dates
is to assist the Air Force in meeting deadlines, but target dates
do not become enforceable by their inclusion in the primary
documents and are not subject to Section XV, Deadlines, Section
XVI, Extensions and Section XXXV, Enforceability.
7.4 Secondary Documents:
(a) The Air Force shall complete and transmit draft reports of the
following secondary documents to EPA and the State for review and
comment for each RA or OU (operable unit) and final remedy in
accordance with the provisions of this Section:
1) Initial Remedial Action/Data Quality Objectives
2) Site Characterization Summaries
3) Initial Screening of Alternatives
4) Sampling and Data Results
5) Treatability Studies
6) Thirty Percent (30%) Remedial Design
7) Post Screening Investigation Work Plans
(b) Although EPA and the State may comment on the draft reports for
the secondary documents listed above, such documents shall not be
subject to dispute resolution except as provided by Section 7.2
hereof. Target dates shall be established for the completion and
transmission of draft secondary reports by the Project Managers.
The Project Managers also may agree upon additional secondary
documents that
20
are within the scope of the listed primary reports.
7.5 Meetings of the Project Managers on Development of Reports:
The Project Managers shall meet approximately every thirty (30) days,
except as otherwise agreed by the Parties, to review and discuss the
progress of work being performed at the site, including progress on
the primary and secondary documents. Prior to preparing any draft
report specified in Section 7.3 and 7.4 above, the Project Managers
shall meet to discuss the report results in an effort to reach a
common understanding, to the maximum extent practicable, with respect
to the results to be prepared in the draft reports.
7.6 Identification and Determination of Potential ARARs:
(a) For those primary reports or secondary documents that consist of,
or include ARAB determinations, prior to the issuance of a draft
report, the Project Managers shall meet to identify and propose,
to the best of their ability, all potential ARARs pertinent to
the report being addressed, including any permitting requirements
which may be a source of ARARs. The State shall identify all
potential state ARARs as early in the remedial process as
possible consistent with the requirements of XXXXXX Xxxxxxx 000,
00 X.X.X. 0000, and the NCP. The Air Force shall consider any
written interpretation of ARARs provided by the State. Draft XXXX
determinations shall be prepared by the Air Force in accordance
with CERCLA Section 121(d)(2), 42 U.S.C. 9621(d)(2), the NCP and
pertinent guidance issued by EPA that is consistent with CERCLA
and the NCP.
(b) In identifying potential ARARs, the parties recognize that actual
ARARS can be identified only on a site-specific basis and that
actual ARARs depend on the specific hazardous substances,
pollutants and contaminants at an Area of Concern, the particular
actions proposed as a remedy and characteristics of an Area of
Concern. The Parties recognize that XXXX identification is
necessarily an iterative
21
process and that potential ARARs must be re-examined throughout
the RI/FS process until a ROD is issued.
7.7 Review and Comment on Draft Report:
(a) The Air Force shall complete and transmit each draft primary
report to EPA and the State on or before the corresponding
deadline established for the issuance of such reports. The Air
Force shall complete and transmit each draft secondary document
in accordance with the target dates established for the issuance
of such reports.
(b) Unless the Parties mutually agree to another time period, all
draft reports shall be subject to a forty-five (45) day period
for review and comment. Review of any document by EPA and the
State may concern all aspects of the report (including
completeness) and should include, but is not limited to,
technical evaluation of any aspect of the document, and
consistency with CERCLA, the NCP, and any pertinent guidance or
policy issued by EPA or the State, and with applicable State law.
Comments submitted by the State may also include considerations
relating to the reuse of Xxxxx AFB property. The Parties
recognize that all activities carried out under this Agreement
must be protective of human health, welfare, and the environment,
and be consistent with CERCLA, the NCP, and any pertinent
guidance or policy issued by EPA or the State, and with
applicable State and Federal law. Within these limitations the
Air Force will consider all comments which may be relevant, as
provided in section 7.7(e) below. At the request of any Project
Manager, and to expedite the review process, the Air Force shall
make an oral presentation of the report to the Parties at the
next scheduled meeting of the Project Managers following
transmittal of the draft report or within fourteen (14) days
following the request, whichever is sooner. Comments by EPA and
the State shall be provided with adequate specificity so that the
Air Force may respond to the comment and, if appropriate, make
changes to the draft report. Comments shall refer to any
pertinent sources of
22
authority or references upon which the comments are based, and
upon request of the Air Force, the EPA and the State shall
provide a copy of the cited authority or reference. EPA or the
State may extend the forty-five (45) day comment period for an
additional fifteen (15) days by providing written notice to the
Air Force prior to the end of the forty-five (45) day period. On
or before the close of the comment period, EPA and the State
shall transmit the written comments to the Air Force by next day
mail, hand delivery, facsimile, or certified letter.
(c) Representatives of the Air Force shall make themselves (and their
contractor if appropriate) readily available to EPA and the State
during the comment period for purposes of informally responding
to questions and comments on draft reports. Oral comments made
during such discussions need not be the subject of a written
response by the Air Force on the close of the comment period.
(d) In commenting on a draft report which contains a proposed XXXX
determination, EPA and the State shall include a reasoned
statement of whether they object to any portion of the proposed
XXXX determination. To the extent that EPA or the State does
object, it shall explain the basis for the objection(s) in detail
and shall identify any ARARs which it believes were not properly
addressed in the proposed XXXX determination.
(e) Following the close of the comment period for a draft report, the
Air Force shall give full consideration to all written comments
on the draft report submitted during the comment period. Within
fifteen (15) days following the close of the comment period on a
draft secondary report or draft primary report, the Parties shall
hold a meeting to discuss all comments received. Within forty-
five (45) days of the close of the comment period on a draft
secondary report, the Air Force shall transmit to EPA and the
State its written response to comments received within the
comment period.
23
Within forty-five (45) days of the close of the comment period on
a draft primary report, the Air Force shall transmit to EPA and
the State a draft final primary report which shall include the
Air Force response to all written comments received within the
comment period. While the resulting draft final report shall be
the responsibility of the Air Force it shall be the product of
consensus to the maximum extent possible.
(f) The Air Force may extend the forty-five (45) day period for
either responding to comments on a draft report or for issuing
the draft final primary report for an additional fifteen (15)
days by providing written notice to EPA and the State. In
appropriate circumstances, this time period may be further
extended in accordance with Section XVI, Extensions, hereof.
(g) For purposes of this Section 7.7, time limitations shall commence
upon receipt of the documents or comments.
7.8 Availability of Dispute Resolution for Draft Final Primary Documents:
(a) Dispute resolution shall be available to the Parties for draft
final primary reports as set forth in Section XIV, Dispute
Resolution.
(b) When dispute resolution is invoked on a draft final primary
report, work may be stopped in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section XIV, Dispute Resolution, regarding dispute
resolution.
7.9 Finalization of Reports: the draft final primary report shall serve as
the final primary report if no party invokes dispute resolution
regarding the document or, if invoked, at the completion of the
dispute resolution process should the Air Force's position be
sustained.
If the Air Force's determination is not sustained in the dispute
resolution process, the Air Force shall prepare, within not more than
forty-five (45) days,
24
a revision of the draft final report which conforms to the results of
dispute resolution. In appropriate circumstances, the time period for
this revision period may be extended in accordance with Section XVI,
Extensions, hereof.
7.10 Subsequent Modifications of Final Reports and additional work:
Following finalization of any primary report pursuant to 7.9 above,
any Party to the Agreement may seek to modify the report, including
seeking additional field work, pilot studies, computer modeling or
other supporting technical work, only as provided in subparagraphs (a)
and (b) below.
(a) Any Party may seek to modify a report after finalization if it
determines, based on new information (i.e., information that
became available, or conditions that became known, after the
report was finalized) that the requested modification is
necessary. Any party may seek such a modification by submitting a
concise written request to the Project Managers of the other
Parties. The request shall specify the nature of the requested
modification and how the request is based on new information.
(b) In the event that a consensus is not reached by the Project
Managers on the need for a modification, any Party may invoke
dispute resolution to determine if such modification shall be
conducted. Modification of a report shall be required only upon
showing that:
(1) The requested modification is based on significant new
information; and
(2) The requested modification could be of significant
assistance in evaluating impacts on the public health or the
environment, in evaluating the selection of remedial
alternatives, or in protecting human health and the
environment.
(c) Nothing in this section shall alter EPA's or the State's ability
to request the performance of additional work which was not
contemplated by this Agreement. The Air Force's obligation
25
to perform such work must be established by either a modification
of a report or document or by an amendment to this agreement.

performance of environmental monitoring at Xxxxx AFB, reviewing RI/FS
or RD/RA progress, and attempting to resolve disputes informally. At
least one week prior to each scheduled meeting, the Air Force will
provide to the other Parties a draft agenda and summary of the status
of the work subject to this Agreement. The minutes of each meeting,
with the meeting agenda and all documents discussed during the meeting
(which were not previously provided) as attachments, shall constitute
a meeting report, which will be sent to all Project Managers within
ten (10) business days after the meeting ends. The meeting reports
shall be placed in the public information repository and made part of
the Administrative Record referred to in Sections 25.3 and 25.4 of
this Agreement. If an extended period occurs between Project Manager
meetings, the Project Managers may agree that the Air Force shall
prepare an interim report and provide it to the other Parties. The
report shall include the information that would normally be discussed
in a meeting of the Project Managers.
8.3 A Project Manager may also recommend and request minor field
modifications to the work performed pursuant to this Agreement, which
are necessary to the completion of the project. The minor field
27
modifications proposed under this Part must be approved orally by each
Project Manager to be effective. No such work modifications can be so
implemented if an increase in contract cost will result without the
authorization of the Air Force Contracting Officer. If agreement
cannot be reached on the proposed additional work or modification to
work, the Party proposing such work or modification may request such
work of modification pursuant to Section 7.10 hereof. within five (5)

agreements which shall provide reasonable access to EPA and the State
and/or their authorized representatives. "Best efforts" for the
purposes of this section shall include, but not be limited to, taking
all reasonable steps to identify and locate such owners and lessees
and making attempts to obtain access agreements from the owners and
lessees of all areas onto which access is needed under this Agreement.
10.6 With respect to property referred to in Section 10.5 above, upon which
monitoring xxxxx, pumping xxxxx, or treatment facilities are to be
located, or other response actions are to be taken pursuant to this
Agreement, any access obtained shall if practicable be conditioned

Agreement.
32
10.7 In the event that access is not obtained within the sixty (60) day
time period set forth in Section 10.5, within fifteen (15) days after
the expiration of the sixty (60) day period, the Air Force shall
notify EPA and the State regarding the lack of, and efforts to obtain,
such access agreements. Within fifteen (15) days of such notice, the
Air Force shall propose modifications (pursuant to Sections 7.10 and
8.3 of this Agreement) which are appropriate due to its inability to
obtain access.
10.8 The Air Force shall take appropriate actions to ensure that all
activities and response or remedial actions to be undertaken pursuant
to this Agreement will not be impeded or impaired by any transaction
involving an interest or right in real property relating to Xxxxx AFB,

generic deed, lease or other instrument. In addition, in cases where
the Air Force is a party to such transaction, it shall provide to EPA
and the State copies of the executed deed, lease or other instrument
evidencing such transaction within fourteen (14) days after the
effective date of such transaction. Such generic form and such
executed deed, lease, or other instrument shall include provisions
which meet the requirements of Section 10.8 (i) through (v) above.
The State (including the Xxxxx Development Authority) shall provide to
EPA and the Air Force a copy of the generic form of any deed, lease or

In the event of a dispute as to whether the provisions included in
such generic form of deed, lease or other instrument meet the
requirements of this Section 10.8, prior to the effective date of the
first transaction relating to such generic form, the dispute may be
referred directly to the SEC for dispute resolution pursuant to
Section XIV of this Agreement. If dispute resolution is invoked in
connection with such generic form of deed, lease
34
or other instrument, the Air Force and the State will not execute the
transaction instrument to which such generic form of deed, lease- or
other instrument relates until the completion of the dispute
resolution process.
Any rights of access granted or other obligations imposed pursuant to

12.3 Section 12.2 above is not intended to relieve the Air Force from the
requirement(s)of obtaining a permit whenever it proposes a response
action involving either the shipment or movement of a hazardous
substance, pollutants, or contaminants off-site, or the conduct of a
response action off-site.
12.4 The Air Force shall notify EPA and the State in writing of any permits
required for any activities it plans to undertake off-site as soon as
it becomes aware of the requirement. The Air Force shall apply for
any such permits and upon request provide EPA and the State copies of
any such permits.
12.5 During any appeal by any Party of any permit required to implement
this Agreement or during review of any proposed modification(s), the
Air Force shall continue to implement those portions of this Agreement
which can be reasonably implemented independent of final resolution of
the permit issue(s) under appeal. However, as to work that cannot be
so implemented, any corresponding timetable, deadlines, and schedule
will be subject to Section XVI, Extensions, of this Agreement.

public health or welfare or the environment because of an actual
or threatened release of a hazardous substance, pollutant or
contaminant at or from Xxxxx AFB, including but not limited to
discovery of contamination of a drinking water well at
concentrations that exceed any State or federal drinking water
action level or standards, the Party may request that the Air
Force take such response actions as may be necessary to xxxxx
such danger or threat and to protect the public health or welfare
or the environment. Such actions might include provision of
alternative drinking water supplies or other removal actions
listed in CERCLA Section 101(23) or (24), 42 U.S.C.
9601(23),(24), or such other relief as the public interest may

addressing the information provided in the oral notification, and
any other information required pursuant to CERCLA and the NCP,
and in accordance with pertinent EPA guidance, for such actions.
(c) For other removal actions, the Air Force will provide EPA and the
State with any information required by CERCLA, the NCP, and in
accordance with, pertinent EPA guidance, such as the Action
Memorandum, the Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (in the case
of non-time-critical removals) and, to the extent it is not
otherwise included, all information required to be provided in
accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section. Unless otherwise
agreed to by the Project Managers such information shall be
furnished at least forty-five (45) days before the removal action
is to begin.
(d) All activities related to ongoing removal actions shall be
reported by the Air Force in the progress reports as described in
Section VIII, Project Managers.
13.5 Any dispute among the Parties as to whether a nonemergency action
proposed under this section is properly considered a removal action,
as defined by CERCLA Section 101(23), 42 U.S.C. 9601(23), or as to the
consistency of such a removal action with final remedial action, shall
be resolved pursuant to Section XIV, Dispute Resolution. Such dispute
may be brought directly to the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC) or
the Senior Executive Committee (SEC) at any Party's request.
40
XIV. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
14.1 Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, if a
dispute arises under this Agreement, the procedures of this section
shall apply. All Parties to this Agreement shall make reasonable
efforts to informally resolve disputes at the Project Manager or
immediate supervisor level. If resolution cannot be achieved
informally, the procedures of this section shall be implemented to
resolve a dispute.
14.2 Within thirty (30) days after: (1) the issuance of a draft final
primary document pursuant to Section VII, Consultation with EPA and
the State, or (2) any action which leads to or generates a dispute,
the disputing Parties shall submit to the other Parties a written
statement of dispute setting forth the nature of the dispute, the work
affected by the dispute, the disputing Party's position with respect
to the dispute and technical, legal or factual information the
disputing Party is relying upon to support its position.
14.3 Prior to any Party's issuance of a written statement of dispute, the
disputing Party shall engage the other Parties in informal dispute
resolution between the Project Managers and/or their immediate
supervisors. During this informal dispute resolution period, the
Parties shall meet as many times as are necessary to discuss and
attempt resolution of the dispute.
14.4 The Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC) will serve as a forum for
resolution of disputes for which agreement has not been reached
through informal dispute resolution. The Parties shall each designate
one individual and an alternate to serve on the DRC. The individuals
designated to serve on the DRC shall be employed at the policy level
(Senior Executive Service Air Force [SES or equivalent]) or be
delegated the authority to participate on the DRC for the purposes of
dispute resolution under this Agreement. The EPA representative on
the DRC is the Waste Management Division Director of EPA's Region I
(EPA Division Director). The State representative on the DRC is the
Director, Division of Waste Management, DES,
41
or his/her designated representative. The Air Force representative on
the DRC is the Director, Base Closure and Integration Division,
Headquarters, United States Air Force. Written notice of any
delegation of authority from the Party's designated representative on
the DRC shall be provided to all other Parties pursuant to the
procedures of Section VIII, Project Managers.
14.5 Following elevation of a dispute to the DRC, the DRC shall have
twenty-one (21) days to unanimously resolve the dispute and issue a
written decision signed by all Parties. If the DRC is unable to
unanimously resolve the dispute within this twenty-one (21) day
period, the written statement of dispute shall be forwarded to the
Senior Executive Committee (SEC) for resolution.
14.6 The SEC will serve as the forum for resolution of disputes for which
agreement has not been reached by the DRC. The EPA representative on
the SEC is the Regional Administrator of EPA Region I or his/her
designated representative. The State representative on the SEC is the
Assistant Commissioner, DES, or his/her designated representative.
The Air Force representative on the SEC is the` Deputy Assistant
Secretary of the Air Force for Environment, Safety and Occupational
Health or his/her designated representative. The SEC members shall,
as appropriate, confer, meet and exert their best efforts to resolve
the dispute and issue a written decision signed by all Parties. If
unanimous resolution of the dispute is not reached within twenty-one
(21) days, the EPA Regional Administrator shall issue a written
position on the dispute. The Air Force or the State may, within
twenty-one (21) days of the Regional Administrator's issuance of EPA's
position, issue a written notice elevating the dispute to the
Administrator of EPA for resolution in accordance with all applicable
laws and procedures. In the event that a Party elects not to elevate
the dispute to the Administrator within the designated twenty-one (21)
day escalation period, the Party shall be deemed to have agreed with
the Regional Administrator's written position with respect to the
dispute.
42
14.7 A. Upon escalation of a dispute to the Administrator of EPA pursuant
to Section 14.6 above, the Administrator will review and resolve
the dispute within twenty one (21) days. Upon request, and prior
to resolving the dispute, the EPA Administrator shall meet and
confer with the Air Force Secretariat Representative and the
Commissioner of the New Hampshire DES to discuss the issue(s)
under dispute. Upon resolution, the Administrator shall provide
the other parties with a written final decision setting forth
resolution of the dispute and a statement of the information upon
which the decision is based. The duties of the Administrator set
forth in this section shall not be delegated.
B. The State reserves its right to maintain an action under CERCLA
Section 121(f)(3)(b), 42 U.S.C.9621 (f) (3) (H) to challenge the
selection of a remedial action that does not attain a legally
applicable or relevant and appropriate standard, requirement,
criteria or limitation.
14.8 The pendency of any dispute under this section shall not affect the
Air Force responsibility for timely performance of the work required
by this Agreement, except that the time period for completion of work
affected by such dispute shall be extended for a period of time
usually not to exceed the actual time taken to resolve any good faith
dispute in accordance with the procedures specified herein. All
elements of the work required by this Agreement, which are not
affected by the dispute, shall continue and be completed in accordance
with the applicable schedule.
14.9 When dispute resolution is in progress, work affected by the dispute
will immediately be discontinued if the EPA Region I Waste Management
Division Director requests, in writing, that work related to the
dispute be stopped because, in EPA's opinion, such work is inadequate
or defective, and such inadequacy or defect is likely to yield an
adverse effect on human health or the environment, or is likely to
have a substantial adverse effect on the remedy selection or
implementation process. The
43
State may request the EPA Division Director to order work stopped for
the reasons set forth above. To the extent possible, the Parties
seeking a work stoppage shall consult with the other Parties prior to
initiating a work stoppage request. After stoppage of work, if a Party
believes the work stoppage is inappropriate or may have potential
significant adverse impacts, the Party may meet with the Party
ordering the work stoppage to discuss the work stoppage. Following
this meeting, and further consideration of the issues, the EPA
Division Director will issue, in writing, a final decision with
respect to the work stoppage. The final written decision of the EPA
Division Director may immediately be subjected to formal dispute
resolution. Such dispute may be brought directly to either the DRC or
the SEC, at the discretion of the Party requesting dispute resolution.
14.10 Within twenty-one (21) days of resolution of a dispute pursuant to the
procedures specified in this part, the Air Force shall incorporate the
resolution and final determination into the appropriate plan, schedule
or procedures and proceed to implement this Agreement according to the
amended plan, schedule or procedures.
14.11 Resolution of a dispute pursuant to this section of the Agreement
constitutes a final resolution of any dispute arising under this
Agreement. The parties shall abide by all terms and conditions of any
final resolution of dispute obtained pursuant to this Section of this
Agreement.
44
XV. DEADLINES
15.1 The Parties have agreed to the deadlines set forth in Appendix II of
this Agreement for completion of drafts of the primary documents
listed therein.
15.2 For any AOC not identified as of the effective date of this Agreement
the Air Force shall propose deadlines for completion of the drafts of
the following primary documents within twenty-one (21) days of
agreement by all Parties on the addition of the proposed AOC:
(a) Scope (s) of Work (as appropriate to address the added AOC (s))
(b) RI/FS Work Plans, including Pilot Testing, Sampling and Analysis
Plans; and
(c) Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs)
(d) RI Reports (including Risk Assessments)
(e) FS Reports (including initial screening of alternatives)
(f) Proposed Plans
(g) Records of Decisions (RODS) (including no-action decisions)
15.3 Within fifteen (15) days of receipt, EPA and the State shall review
and provide comments to the Air Force regarding the proposed
deadlines. Within fifteen (15) days following receipt of comments, the
Air Force shall, as appropriate, make revisions and reissue the
proposal. The Parties shall meet as necessary to discuss and finalize
the proposed deadlines. If the Parties agree on proposed deadlines,
the finalized deadlines shall be incorporated into the appropriate
Work Plans. If the Parties fail to agree within thirty (30) days on
the proposed deadlines, the matter shall immediately be submitted for
dispute resolution pursuant to Section XIV, Dispute Resolution, of
this Agreement. The final deadlines established pursuant to this
paragraph shall be published by EPA and the State and shall become an
appendix to this agreement.
45
15.4 Within twenty-one (21) days of issuance of each Record of Decision
issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Air Force shall propose
deadlines for completion of the following draft primary documents:
(a) Sixty Percent (60%) Preliminary Remedial Design (RD)
(b) Final Remedial Designs (RDs)
(c) Remedial Action Work Plans (to include schedules for RA,
operation and maintenance plans, Construction Quality Assurance

These deadlines shall be proposed, finalized and published utilizing
the same procedure set forth in Section 15.3 above.
15.5 The deadlines set forth in this Part, or to be established as set
forth in this Part, may be extended pursuant to Section XVI,
Extensions, of this Agreement. The Parties recognize that one possible
basis for extension of the deadlines for completion of the RI/FS
Reports is the identification of significant new conditions during the
performance of the remedial investigation.
46
XVI. EXTENSIONS
16.1 Either a timetable and deadline or a schedule shall be extended upon
receipt of a timely request for extension and when good cause exists
for the requested extension. Any request for extension by the Air
Force shall be submitted in writing and shall specify:
(a) The timetable and deadlines or the schedule that is sought to be
extended;
(b) The length of the extension sought;
(c) The good cause(s) for the extension; and
(d) Any related timetable and deadlines or schedule that would be
affected if the extension were granted.
16.2 Good cause exists for an extension when sought in regard to:
(a) An event of Force Majeure;
(b) A delay caused by another Party's failure to meet any requirement
of this Agreement;
(c) A delay caused by the good faith invocation of dispute resolution
or the initiation of judicial action;
(d) A delay caused, or which is likely to be caused, by the grant of
an extension in regard to another timetable and deadlines or
schedule; and
(e) Any other event or series of events mutually agreed to by the
Parties as constituting good cause.
16.3 Absent agreement of the Parties with respect to the existence of good
cause pursuant to Section 16.2 above, the Air Force may seek and
obtain determination through the dispute resolution process that good
cause exists.
16.4 Within seven (7) days of receipt of a request for an extension of a
timetable and deadlines or a
47
schedule, EPA and the State shall advise the Air Force in writing of
their respective positions on the request. Any failure by EPA and the
State to respond within the seven (7) day period shall be deemed to
constitute concurrence in the request for extension. If EPA or the
State does not concur in the requested extension, it shall include in
its statement of nonconcurrence an explanation of the basis for its
position.
16.5 If there is a consensus among the Parties that the requested extension
is warranted, the Air Force shall extend the affected timetable and
deadlines or schedule accordingly. If there is no consensus among the
Parties as to whether all or part of the requested extension is
warranted, the timetable and deadlines or schedule shall not be
extended except in accordance with the determination resulting from
the dispute resolution process.
16.6 within seven (7) days of receipt of a statement of nonconcurrence with
the requested extension, the Air Force may invoke dispute resolution.
16.7 A timely and good faith request for an extension shall toll any
assessment of stipulated penalties or application for judicial
enforcement of the affected timetable and deadlines or schedule until
a decision is reached on whether the requested extension will be
approved. If dispute resolution is invoked and the requested extension
is denied, stipulated penalties may be assessed and may accrue from
the date of the original timetable, deadlines or schedule as most
recently extended. Following the grant of an extension, an assessment
of stipulated penalties or an application for judicial enforcement may
be sought only to compel compliance with the timetable and deadline or
schedule as most recently extended.
48
XVII. FORCE MAJUERE
17.1 A Force Majeure shall mean any event arising from causes beyond the
control of the Party that causes a delay in or prevents the
performance of any obligation under this Agreement, including but not
limited to, acts of God; fire; war; insurrection; civil disturbance;
explosion; unanticipated breakage or accident to machinery, equipment
or lines of pipe despite reasonably diligent maintenance; adverse
weather conditions that could not be reasonably anticipated; unusual
delay in transportation; restraint by court order or order of public
authority; inability to obtain, at reasonable cost and after exercise
of reasonable diligence, any necessary authorizations, approvals,
permits or licenses due to action or inaction of any governmental
agency or authority other than the Air Force; delays caused by
compliance with applicable statutes or regulations governing
contracting, procurement or acquisition procedures, despite the
exercise of reasonable diligence; and insufficient availability of
appropriated funds, if the Air Force shall have made a timely request
for such funds as a part of the budgetary process as set forth in
Section XXIV, Funding, of this Agreement. Force Majeure shall also
include any strike or other labor dispute, whether or not within
control of the parties affected thereby. Force Majeure shall not
include increased costs or expenses of response actions, whether or
not anticipated at the time such response actions were initiated.
49
XVIII. EXEMPTIONS
18.1 The obligation of the Air Force to comply with the provisions of this
Agreement may be relieved by a Presidential order of exemption issued
pursuant to the provisions of CERCLA Section 120(j)(1), 42 U.S.C.
9620(j)(1), or XXXX Xxxxxxx 0000, 00 X.X.X. 0000; or the order of an
appropriate court.
The State reserves any statutory right it may have to challenge any
Presidential Order relieving the Air Force of its obligations to
comply with this agreement.
50
XIX. EPA CERTIFICATION
19.1 When the Air Force determines that any final remedial action,
including any groundwater remediation, has been completed in
accordance with the requirements of this Agreement for an OU and/or
Area(s) of Concern, it shall so advise EPA and the State in writing in
a Project Closeout Report, and shall request from EPA certification
that the remedial action(s) have been completed in accordance with the
requirements of this Agreement. Within ninety (90) days of the receipt
of the request for EPA certification, EPA in consultation with the
State shall advise the Air Force in writing that:
(a) EPA certifies that the remedial action has been completed in
accordance with this Agreement based on conditions known at the
time of certification; or
(b) EPA denies the Air Force's request for certification stating in
full the basis of the denial and describing the additional work
needed to bring the remedial action into compliance with the
terms and requirements of the primary documents relating to such
remedial action.
19.2 If EPA denies the Air Force request for certification that a remedial
action has been completed in accordance with this Agreement, the Air
Force or the State may invoke dispute resolution to review EPA's
determination on certification and/or the additional work needed. If
EPA fails to respond within ninety (90) days of the Air Force's
request for certification, such failure shall be treated as a denial
of certification subject to dispute resolution pursuant to Section XIV
of this Agreement.
51
XX. TERMINATION AND SATISFACTION
20.1 The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed satisfied upon a
consensus of the Parties that the Air Force has completed its
obligations under the terms of this Agreement. Following EPA
Certification of all remedial actions at Xxxxx AFB pursuant to Section
XIX, EPA Certification, any Party may propose in writing the
termination of this Agreement upon showing that the objectives of this
Agreement have been satisfied. A Party opposing termination of this
Agreement shall serve its objections upon the proposing Party within
thirty (30) days of receipt of the proposal and if the Parties fail to
agree within thirty (30) days, the dispute will be resolved pursuant
to the provisions of Section XIV, Dispute Resolution; at the option of
any Party, the dispute may be submitted directly to the DRC or the
SEC.
20.2 Upon termination of this Agreement, the Party which proposed
termination shall place a public notice announcing termination in two
local newspapers of general circulation.
52
XXI. STATUTORY COMPLIANCE/RCRA-CERCLA INTEGRATION
21.1 The Parties intend to integrate the Air Force's CERCLA response
obligations and RCRA corrective action obligations which relate to the
release(s) of hazardous substances, hazardous wastes, pollutants or
contaminants covered by this Agreement into this comprehensive
Agreement. Therefore, the Parties intend that activities covered by
this Agreement will achieve compliance with CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9601 et
seg.; satisfy the corrective action requirements of RCRA Section
3004(u) and (v), 42 U.S.C. 6924(u) and (v), for RCRA permit, and RCRA
Section 3008(h), 42 U.S.C. 6928(h) for interim status facilities; and
to meet or exceed all applicable or relevant and appropriate Federal
and State laws and regulations to the extent required by XXXXXX
Xxxxxxx 000, 00 X.X.X. 0000 and applicable state law.
21.2 Based upon the foregoing, the Parties intend that any remedial action
selected, implemented and completed under this Agreement will be
protective of human health and the environment such that remediation
of releases covered by this Agreement shall obviate the need for
further corrective action under RCRA (i.e., no further corrective
action shall be required). The Parties agree that, with respect: to
releases of hazardous waste covered by this Agreement that are
associated with Xxxxx AFB, RCRA shall be considered an applicable or
relevant and appropriate requirement pursuant to XXXXXX Xxxxxxx 000,
00 X.X.X. 0000. Releases or other hazardous waste activities not
covered by this Agreement remain subject to all applicable State and
Federal environmental requirements.
21.3 The Parties recognize that the requirement to obtain permits for
response actions undertaken pursuant to this Agreement shall be as
provided for in CERCLA and the NCP. The Parties further recognize that
ongoing hazardous waste management activities at Xxxxx AFB may require
the issuance of permits under Federal and State law. This Agreement
does not affect the requirements, if any, to obtain such permits.
However, if a permit is issued to the Air. Force for on-going
hazardous waste management activities at Xxxxx AFB, EPA and the State
shall reference and incorporate any appropriate provisions, including
appropriate schedules (and the provision for extension of such
schedules), of this
53
Agreement into such permit. With respect to those portions of this
Agreement incorporated by reference into permits, the Parties intend
that judicial review of the incorporated portions shall, to the extent
authorized by law, only be reviewed under the provisions of CERCLA.
21.4 Nothing in this Agreement shall alter the air Force authority with
respect to removal actions conducted pursuant to XXXXXX Xxxxxxx 000,
00 X.X.X. 0000.
54
XXII. COVENANT NOT TO XXX AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
22.1 In consideration for the Air Force's compliance with this Agreement,
and based on the information known to the Parties or reasonably
available on the effective date of this Agreement. EPA, the Air Force,
and the State agree that compliance with this Agreement shall stand in
lieu of any administrative, legal and equitable remedies against the
Air Force available to them regarding the releases or threatened
releases of hazardous substances including hazardous wastes,
pollutants or contaminants at the Site which are the subject of any
RI/FS conducted pursuant to this Agreement and which have been or will
be adequately addressed by the remedial actions provided for under
this Agreement.
22.2 This covenant not to xxx does not affect any claims for natural
resources damage assessments or for damage to natural resources.
22.3 Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict the Parties from taking any
action under CERCLA, RCRA, state law, or other environmental statutes
for any matter not covered by this Agreement.
22.4 Notwithstanding this section, or any other section of this Agreement,
the State shall retain any statutory right it may have to obtain
judicial review of any final decision of the EPA on selection of
remedial actions pursuant to any authority the state may have under
CERCLA, including Sections 113, 121(e) (2), 121(f) [including
121(f)(3)(B) (iii)], and 310, 42 U.S.C. 9613, 9621(e)(2), 9621(f)
[including 9621(f)(3)(B)(iii)], and 9659.
22.5(a) Notwithstanding this Section, or any other Section of this Agreement,
the State may withdraw from this Agreement and terminate its rights
and obligations under this Agreement upon sixty (60) days prior
written notice to the other Parties, if, due to the inadequacy of
funds appropriated to the Department of Defense "Base Closure Account"
for environmental restoration activities, Pub. L. No. 101-510,
(S)2923, to meet Air Force obligations under this Agreement, the Air
Force either:
55
(1) requests and is granted an extension of a deadline of three
hundred and sixty-five (365) days or more pursuant to Section
XVI, Extensions, or
(2) fails to meet a deadline which had previously been extended on at
least one occasion, pursuant to Section XVI, Extensions, due to
the inadequacy of funds appropriated to the Base Closure account
for environmental restoration activities.
(b) If, after the effective date of this Agreement, Acts of Congress
expressly authorize the use of funds other than the Base Closure
Account to fulfill Air Force obligations under this Agreement, then
the State will be precluded from exercising its right under this
Section 22.5 to withdraw from this Agreement unless such alternate
source of funds, in combination with funds from the Base Closure
Account, is insufficient to meet Air Force obligations under this
Agreement and either of the conditions in Section 22.5(a) (1) or (2)
occurs.
56
XXIII. OTHER CLAIMS
23.1 Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute or be construed as a bar or
release from any claim, cause of action or demand in law or equity
against any person, firm, partnership, or corporation, or any
municipality, county, State or Agency or authority thereof not a
signatory to this Agreement for any liability it may have arising out
of or relating to the generation, storage, treatment, handling,
transportation, release, or disposal of any hazardous substances,
hazardous wastes, pollutants or contaminants found at, taken to, or
taken from the Xxxxx AFB. Unless specifically agreed to in writing by
the Party to be bound, EPA and the State shall not be held as a party
to any contract entered into by the Air Force to implement the
requirements of this Agreement.
23.2 This Agreement does not constitute any decision or preauthorization by
EPA of funds under CERCLA Section 111(a) (2), 42 U.S.C. 9611(a) for
any person, agent, contractor or consultant acting for the Air Force.
57
XXIV. FUNDING
24.1 It is the expectation of Parties to this Agreement that all
obligations of the Air Force arising under this Agreement will be
fully funded. The Air Force agrees to seek sufficient funding through
the DOD budgetary process to fulfill its obligation under this
Agreement.
24.2 In accordance with CERCLA 120(e)(5)(B), 42 U.S.C. 9620 (e) (5) (B),
the Air Force shall include in its annual report to Congress the
specific cost estimates and budgetary proposals associated with the
implementation of this Agreement.
24.3 The source of funds for activities required by this Agreement will be
the Department of Defense "Base Closure Account," Pub. L. No. 100-526,
pursuant to Pub. L. No. 101-510, 52923, or other accounts subsequently
authorized and appropriated by Congress to be used for these purposes,
and allocated by the Department of Defense to the Air Force according
to standards then pertaining. Should the Base Closure Account
appropriation for these activities be inadequate in any year to meet
the total Air Force Base Closure Account environmental restoration
requirements, the Department of Defense shall employ a standardized
prioritization process which allocates that year's appropriations in a
manner which maximizes the protection of human health and the
environment at the military facilities which are then scheduled for
closure. The standardized prioritization model shall be developed and
utilized with the assistance of EPA and the States, based on the
example of the prioritization model which is utilized for the
"Environmental Restoration, Defense" ("DERA") appropriation for CERCLA
activities at other, non-closing military facilities. In the event
that the DERA is ever an authorized and appropriated source of funds
for activities required by this Agreement, its standardized
prioritization model shall be followed in allocating funding for these
activities.
24.4 Any requirement for the payment or obligation of funds, including
stipulated penalties, by the Air Force established by the terms of
this Agreement shall be subject to the availability of appropriated
58
funds, and no provision herein shall be interpreted to require
obligation or payment of funds in violation of the AntiDeficiency Act,
31 U.S.C. 1341. In cases where payment or obligation of funds would
constitute a violation of the Anti-Deficiency Act, he dates

66
XXX. RECOVERY OF STATE OVERSIGHT COSTS OR STATE SUPPORT SERVICES
30.1 The Air Force agrees to request funding and reimburse the State,
subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Section,
and subject to Section XXIV, Funding, for all reasonable costs it
incurs in providing services in direct support of the Air Force's
environmental restoration activities pursuant to this Agreement at the
Site. For purposes of this Section, "State" shall include any agency
of New Hampshire state government, including but not limited to the
Department of Environmental Services, the Attorney General's office,
the Xxxxx Development Authority, and the Division of Public Health
Services.
30.2 Reimbursable expenses shall consist only of actual expenditures
required to be made and actually made by the State in providing the
following assistance to Xxxxx AFB:
(a) Timely technical review and substantive comment on Reports or
studies which the Air Force prepares in Support of its response
actions and submits to the State.
(b) Identification and explanation of unique State requirements
applicable to military installations in performing response
actions, especially State applicable or relevant and appropriate
requirements (ARARs).
(c) Field visits to ensure investigations and cleanup activities are
implemented in accordance with appropriate State requirements, or
in accordance with agreed upon conditions between the State and
the Air Force that are established in the framework of this
Agreement.
(d) Support and assistance to the Air Force in the conduct of public
participation activities in accordance with federal and State
requirements for public involvement.
(e) Participation in the review and comment functions of Air Force
Technical Review Committees.
67
(f) Other services specified in this Agreement.
30.3 Within ninety (90) days after the end of each quarter of the Federal
fiscal year, the State Project Manager shall submit to the Air Force
an accounting of all State costs actually incurred during that quarter
in providing direct support services under this Section. Such
accounting shall be accompanied by cost summaries and be supported by
documentation which meets federal auditing requirements. The summaries
will set forth employee hours and other expenses by major type of
support service. All costs submitted must be for work directly related
to implementation of this Agreement and not inconsistent with either
the National Contingency Plan (NCP) or the requirements described in
OMB Circulars A-87 (Cost Principles for State and Local Governments)
and A-128 (Audits for State and Local Cooperative Agreements with
State and Local Governments) and Standard Forms 424 and 270. The Air
Force has the right to audit cost reports used by the State to develop
the cost summaries. Before the beginning of each fiscal year, the
State shall supply a budget estimate of what it plans to do in the
next year in the same level of detail as the billing documents.
30.4 Except as allowed pursuant to Sections 30.5 or 30.6 below, within
ninety (90) days of receipt of the accounting provided pursuant to
Section 30.3 above, the Air Force shall reimburse the State in the
amount set forth in the accounting.
30.5 In the event the Air Force contends that any of the costs set forth in
the accounting provided pursuant to Section 30.3 above are not
properly payable, the matter shall be resolved through a bilateral
dispute resolution process set forth at Section 30.9 below.
30.6 The Air Force shall not be responsible for reimbursing the State for
any costs actually incurred in the implementation of this Agreement in
excess of one percent (1%) of the Air Force total lifetime project
costs incurred through construction of the remedial action(s). This
total reimbursement limit is currently estimated to be a sum of
$800,000.00 over the life of the Agreement.
68
Circumstances could arise whereby fluctuations in the Air Force
estimates or actual final costs through the construction of the final
remedial action creates a situation where the State receives
reimbursement in excess of one percent of these costs. Under these
circumstances, the State remains entitled to payment for services
rendered prior to the completion of a new estimate if the services are
within the ceiling applicable under the previous estimate.
(a) Funding of support services must be constrained so as to avoid
unnecessary diversion of the limited Department of Defense funds
available for the overall cleanup, and
(b) Support services should not be disproportionate to overall
project costs and budget.
30.7 Either the Air Force or the State may request, on the basis of
significant upward or downward revisions in the Air Force's estimate
of its total lifetime costs through 'construction used in Section 30.6
above, a renegotiation of the cap. Failing an agreement, either the
Air Force or the State may initiate dispute resolution in accordance
with Section 30.9 below.
30.8 Except as provided in Section 30.11, the State agrees to seek
reimbursement for its expenses solely through the mechanism
established in this Section, and reimbursement provided under this
Section shall be in settlement of any claims for State response costs
relative to the Air Force's environmental restoration activities at
the Site.
30.9 Section XIV Dispute Resolution notwithstanding, this Subsection shall
govern any dispute between the Air Force and the State regarding the
application of this Section or any matter controlled by this Section
including, but not limited to, allowability of expenses and limits on
reimbursement. While it is the intent of the Air Force and the State
that these procedures shall govern resolution of disputes concerning
State reimbursement, informal dispute resolution is encouraged.
69
(a) The Air Force and State Project Managers shall be the initial
points of contact for coordination of dispute resolution under
this Section.
(b) If the Air Force and State Project Managers are unable to resolve
a dispute, the matter shall be referred to the Director of
Engineering and Services, Headquarters, U.S. Air Force, or
his/her designated representative, and the Director, Waste
Management Division, DES, as soon as practicable, but in any
event within five (5) working days after the dispute is elevated
by the Project Managers.
(c) If the Director of Engineering and Services and the Division
Director are unable to resolve the dispute within ten (10)
working days, the matter shall be elevated to the Commissioner,
DES, and the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for
Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health.
(d) In the event the Commissioner and the Deputy Assistant Secretary
of the Air Force are unable to resolve a dispute, the State
retains any legal and equitable remedies it may have to recover
its expenses. In addition, the State may withdraw from this
Agreement by giving sixty (60) days notice to the other Parties.
30.10 Nothing herein shall be construed to limit the ability of the Air
Force to contract with the State for technical services that could
otherwise be provided by a private contractor including, but not
limited to:
(a) Identification, investigation, and cleanup of any contamination
beyond the boundaries of Xxxxx AFB;
(b) Laboratory analysis; or
(c) Data collection for field studies.
30.11 Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute a waiver of
any claims by the State for any
70
expenses incurred prior to the effective date of this Agreement.
30.12 The Air Force and the State agree that the terms and conditions of
this Section shall become null and void when the State enters into a
Defense/State Memorandum of Agreement (DSMOA) with the Department of
Defense (DOD) which addresses State reimbursement.
71

APPENDIX I. SITE DESCRIPTIONS/1/
--------------------------------
Landfill 1, LF-1 (site 1)
-------------------------
Landfill 1, the original base landfill, was operated from 1953 to 1963 and is
estimated to be approximately seven acres in size. The landfill originally
received construction rubble and debris during base construction. Types of
materials received during subsequent base operation included domestic solid
waste and shop wastes with some sporadic disposal of waste oils and solvents,
paint strippers, outdated paints, paint thinners, pesticide containers, and
various empty cans and drums.
Landfill 2, LF-2 (site 2)
-------------------------
Landfill 2 was a minor landfill operated from 1960 to 1962. This sits is
approximately three acres in size. Typical use of the landfill involved cutting
of long trenches to a depth of six to eight feet (or to bedrock) and covering
disposed material with fill. Materials received at Landfill 2 were similar to
those reported for Landfill 1.
Landfill 3, LF-3 (site 3)
-------------------------
Initial investigation report indicated Landfill 3 to be a small landfill of
approximately two acres. The site, located southeast of Landfill 2 and northwest
of the bulk fuel storage area, was operated from 1962 to 1963 following the
closing of Landfill 2. Mode of operation and materials received were essentially
the same as for Landfill 2. Subsequent field work, i.e., excavation test pits,
indicated no evidence of source area.
Landfill 4, LF-4 (site 4)
-------------------------
Initial investigation report indicated Landfill 4 was operated subsequent to
Landfill 3, from 1963 to 1964. However, the results of aerial photograph review
show the landfill was in use prior to 1960 and at least to 1976. The site is
approximately seven acres in size. Mode of

Report dated December, 1989.
I-2
operation and materials received were essentially the same as for Landfills 2
and 3.
Landfill 5, LF-5 (site 5)
-------------------------
Landfill 5 was the major base landfill used from 1964 to 1972 and 1974 to 1975.
It is approximately 23 acres in size. Its mode of operation was cut and fill.
Materials received during the earlier years were similar to Landfills 1 through
4. In addition, the landfill received an estimated 20,000-gallons of sludge
from the industrial waste treatment plant (Building 226). An Interim Remedial
Measure (IRM) was initiated in the fall of 1989 to excavate, remove, and dispose
of buried drums at this site. Excavation and drum removal work was completed in
December, 1989.
Landfill 6, LF-6 (site 6)
-------------------------
While in use LF-6 was operated as the main repository for all base solid waste
including construction rubble and domestic refuse. Some spent thinners and
solvents also have been disposed at this location. Refuse was buried using
trench and fill methods. The landfill was reported to have been in operation
between 1972 and 1974. However, a review of historical aerial photographs showed
that the landfill area was cleared in 1952 and was an active landfill in 1960.
Fire Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx 0, XXXX-0 (site 7)
------------------------------------------------
This was the original fire department training area and was operated from 1955
to 1961. Its present state includes a circular gravel area marked by a large
patch of charred sand and gravel, surrounded by a large cleared area with sparse
vegetation with no indication of oil residues. No evidence of recent use was
found. Waste oils, waste fuels, and spent solvents were burned at this site,
with waste fuels accounting for the bulk of the material burned. The volume of
material burned over the 6year life of the training area is estimated to be
between 120,000 and 200,000 gallons.
Fire Department Training Area, FDTA-2 (site 8)
----------------------------------------------
Use of this fire department training area followed the discontinued use of the
original training area. Operation began in 1961 and continued through late 1988.
Prior to 1975, the site was similar to Fire Department Training Area 1, with no
improvements except clearing of vegetation and installation of a gravel bed burn
pit area. In 1975, the site
I-3
was refurbished by construction of a clay-lined burn area and installation of a
drainage system. However, subsequent subsurface investigations have not
confirmed evidence of a clay liner. From 1961 to 1971, burning exercises
conducted at this fire training area were the main method of disposal for
various Petroleum, Oil and Lubricant (POL) wastes generated on base. Products
burned included recovered fuels, waste oils, and spent solvents. Since about
1971, only recovered JP-4 has been used for fire training exercises at this
site. An Interim Remedial Measure (IRM) was initiated in the fall of 1989 to
remove contaminated soil from a drainage ditch and install, operate, and
maintain a pilot groundwater treatment system.
Construction Rubble Dump 1, CRD-1 (site 9)
------------------------------------------
Construction Rubble Dump 1 was operated from the late 1950s until 1989. This
site was used primarily for disposal of inert construction rubble such as
concrete, bituminous pavement, tree stumps, brush, and similar materials. One
interviewee stated that waste solvents containing TCE were disposed of at this
site during 1958 and 1959. The waste solvent was reportedly disposed of in 5-
gallon cans at a rate of approximately 20-gallons per month.
Leaded Fuel Tank Sludge Disposal Site, LFTS (site 10)
-----------------------------------------------------
The leaded fuel disposal site was used from the late 50s to 1978 for disposal of
sludges cleaned from the Aviation Gasoline (AVGAS) tanks located in the bulk
fuels storage area. Except for a small area of reduced vegetative cover
(approximately 50 square feet), no evidence of the site's former use was found.
The leaded AVGAS tanks were routinely inspected every three years and cleaned as
necessary until the use of AVGAS was discontinued in 1978r' Sludge cleaned from
tanks consisted of rust, water, residual fuel sludge, and material from
sandblasting tank interiors.
Field Maintenance Squadron (FMS) Equipment Cleaning Site, FMS (site 11)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This site was used intermittently prior to 1971 for disposal of waste solvent
used to clean new equipment of their protective cosmolene coating. Except for a
100-square foot area with sparse vegetative cover, there is no evidence of the
site's former use.
I-4
Munitions Storage Site Solvent Disposal Site, MSA (site 12)
-----------------------------------------------------------
This site was used as a dumping point for small quantities of waste thinners and
solvents used in servicing and maintaining munitions at Building 466. The site
was used for an undetermined number of years prior to 1980. Waste solvents were
dumped at an estimated rate of 6 gallons/year onto the ground surface, resulting
in the elimination of vegetative growth in a 00-xxxx xxxxxx xxxx.
Bulk Fuel Storage Area, BFSA (site 13)
--------------------------------------
The Bulk Fuel Storage Area is the main fuel storage area at the base. Minor
spills have probably occurred throughout the life of the facility with only a
few major spills having been reported. In 1963, a ruptured drain line resulted
in the loss of thousands of gallons of fuel from bulk storage Tanks into the
diked area surrounding the tank. Most of the spilled fuel was recovered. This
same tank subsequently developed a small pinhole leak in 1980. Some minor fuel
loss occurred (estimated at less than 1,000 gallons) before the leak was found
and repaired. Also at the bulk storage area, a corroded vent on the fuel
transfer line at Building 160 resulted in an estimated loss of several thousand
gallons of fuel in 1975.
Fuel Line Spill Site, FLS(site 14)
----------------------------------
In 1959 snow removal equipment ruptured a protruding vent line from the main
underground fuel line, near the northern perimeter of the aircraft parking
apron. This fuel loss was estimated to be at least 10,000 gallons. Most of the
fuel either evaporated or was flushed with water into the storm drainage system.
Industrial Shop/Parking Apron, IS/PA (site 15)
----------------------------------------------
This area contains the flightline shops, hangars, and aircraft parking apron
refueling areas. As a result of initial investigation work, this site was
subdivided into six specific areas for further investigations. These areas were
designated sites 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 36. Description of these sites is
provided further on in this Appendix.
I-5
PCB Spill Site (site 16)
------------------------
In 1983, a blown transformer at Building 410 resulted in the release of
approximately 35 gallons of transformer oil containing 500,000 ppm PCB. Most of
the spill was contained indoors on the concrete floor, although some oil did
reach the ground outside of the building. The contaminated soil, as well as the
transformer oil cleanup material were collected in 18 55 gallon drums. The
remaining soil was analyzed and found not to contain residual PCBs.
Construction Rubble Dump, CRD-2 (site 17)
-----------------------------------------
Construction Rubble Dump 2 received construction debris consisting of asphalt,
concrete, and gravel borrow. During the Stage 2 presurvey site visit, drums were
visible in the debris. No reports of hazardous waste disposal at CRD-2 have been
identified. A review of aerial photographs shows that the area has been cleared
since at least 1952, and CRD-2 probably received debris from construction of the
runway.
Munitions Residue Burial Site (site 18)
---------------------------------------
This site has received the inert residue from deactivated small xxxxx
ammunition, egress items, smoke grenades, and starter cartridges. Initial
investigations found no evidence of hazardous waste disposal or contamination.
Newfields Ditch (site 19)
-------------------------
Newfields Ditch is an intermittent storm water drainage channel. It drains the
IS/PA (site 15) and eventually runs into the Piscataqua River. Newfields Ditch
is not known to support a sport fishery and is not authorized for recreational
use.
Grafton Ditch (site 20)
-----------------------
Grafton Ditch, also referred to as Harveys Creek, receives storm drainage from
the IS/ PA (site 15) and surface runoff from LF-6 (site 6) and CRD-2 (site 17).
Although it exhibits perennial flow, no sport fishing has been documented.
Grafton Ditch flows into Harveys Creek which then flows northward to North Mill
Pond and eventually to the Piscataqua River.
I-6
XxXxxxxx Xxxxx (site 21)
------------------------
XxXxxxxx Xxxxx originates within the IS/PA (site 15) and receives storm water
runoff from the runway, flightline, shop, and parking apron. Water flowing into
XxXxxxxx Xxxxx passes through an oil/water separator before flowing off base and
into Great Bay. During dry periods flow is intermittent. Although no biological
data are available, the New Hampshire Fish Division speculates that XxXxxxxx
Xxxxx may serve as a spawning ground for rainbow smelt (Xxxxxx, 1989).
Suspected Fire Training Area (Burn. Area 1), BA-1 (site 22)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Initially, site 22 was designated as "Suspected Fire Training Area", in later
documents the designation was changed to "Burn Area l." Burn Area 1 was
identified in aerial photographs as an area of stressed vegetation and stained
soil. Historical aerial photograph review places the period of use between 1960
and 1976.
Pauls Brook (site 23)
---------------------
Pauls Brook collects runoff from BFSA (site 13) and possibly some runoff from
LF-3 (site 3). This brook eventually flows to the Piscataqua River, after
crossing under the Xxxxxxxxx Turnpike north of the main entrance to the base. It
exhibits perennial flow and is not known to support a sport fishery.
Xxxxxxx Ponds/Brook (site 24)
-----------------------------
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx receives surface runoff and potential ground water discharge from
CRD-1(site 8) and then flows to Upper Xxxxxxx Pond. Upper Xxxxxxx Pond receives
additional runoff and potential groundwater discharge from LF-1 (site 1) and
FDTA-1 (site 7). The water in upper Xxxxxxx Pond drains into Lower Xxxxxxx Pond
and from thereto Bass Pond before entering Great Bay. Both Upper and Lower
Xxxxxxx Ponds are designated by the State of New Hampshire as sport fisheries.
Xxxxx AFB annually stocks these ponds with rainbow, brook, and xxxxx trout. Bass
Pond, although not a state-designated fishery, does support recreational fishing
activity. In addition to providing a recreational warm water fishery, Lower
Xxxxxxx Pond is also authorized for swimming.
Flagstone Brook (site 26)
-------------------------
Flagstone Brook receives surface water from the north ramp portion of the
parking apron, from FDTA No 2 (site 8) via
I-7
Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx and runoff from Landfills 2, 3, 4, 5 and the BFSA (site 13)
before entering Little Bay. Flow in Flagstone Brook is intermittent in its upper
reaches and does not support a sport fishery.
Building 244 (site 31)
----------------------
An Underground Storage Tank (UST) beside Building 244 was used from 1955 to 1965
to store waste Trichloroethene (TCE) generated from degreasing aircraft parts.
This tank has been suspected as a contamination source.
Building 113 (site 32)
----------------------
Building 113 is the Munitions Maintenance Squadron (MSS) building. An
underground storage tank adjacent to the building had been used from 1955 to
1965 to store waste TCE generated from degreasing aircraft parts. The tank was
removed in 1988.
Building 229 (site 33)
----------------------
Building 229 was investigated because of possible fuel/oil spills and reported
past TCE use. waste fuel and oil were pumped from this building by a large pump
located behind the building.
Building 222 (site 34)
----------------------
Building 222 is the Jet Engine Test Cell (JETC). Drainage from the building went
to a swale located southeast of the building until the fall of 1989, when it was
piped to holding tanks. Potential contaminants are JP-4 fuel, exhaust residues,
and to a lesser extent, TCE.
Building 226, (site 35)
-----------------------
The former Industrial Waste Treatment Plant (IWTP) operated for at least 10
years (until the 1960s) in Building 226. The exact nature of wastes and
treatment processes are not known. An oil/'water separator is located west of
the building.
Building 119 (site 36)
----------------------
Building 119 is the Jet Engine Maintenance building. The drum storage and oil
rack are of concern at this site because soil is visibly stained on the slope
behind the drum storage area and around the oil rack. Wastes generated from this
building, including fuel and waste TCE, were disposed at the fire
I-8
department training areas in the past. They are currently contained in drums,
stored behind Building 119, and removed by a contractor.
Xxxx Xxxx 0, XX-0 (site 37)
---------------------------
This area was discovered during the early part of investigative work conducted
between September, 1987 and December, 1989. BA-2 was identified in review of
1960 aerial photographs, which showed stained soil and about 3.4 acres of
cleared land. Initial investigations of this area were conducted in conjunction
with work done at LFTS, site 10. In December of 1989 it was recommended to treat
BA-2 as a separate site.

These Deadlines are based upon the following parameters:
1. In many respects the IAG process is sequential, consisting of a series of
steps. Specifically, as to the
II-2
deadlines for the primary documents established in A through F above, the
Air Force must prepare and transmit documents to the EPA and the State for
their review of the document to insure consistency with CERCLA, the NCP,
pertinent EPA and State guidance, and applicable state law. It is not
possible to complete preparation of subsequent documents until this process
is complete for earlier documents.
2. Draft RI report date is predicated on the following assumptions: a) the
apparent acceptance by EPA and the State of the Site Characterization
Summary Report (a secondary document) and b) only single tier sampling for
Ecological Risk Assessment data.
3. Draft ROD date is predicated on the following assumption: the Proposed
Plan, having been finalized pursuant to Section VII, will not require a
change of selected remedy as a result of comments received during the
public comment period.
If these parameters are not met with respect to a particular deadline, the Air
Force may seek an extension pursuant to Section XVI of this Agreement; the
appropriateness of any such extension request shall be determined in accordance
with requirements and procedures set forth in Section XVI.
II-3
Modification 1
to
Federal Facilities Agreement, dated April 24, 1991, under
CERCLA Section 120 for Xxxxx Air Force Base
The United States Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Air Force
and the State-of New Hampshire, as parties to the above agreement, hereby modify
the agreement as follows. These modifications shall become effective in
accordance with Section XXVI of the Agreement. All other provisions of this
agreement continue to remain effective as of April 24, 1991.
1. Insert a new Section 5.9(A) to read as follows:
The Air Force conducted a further review of locations indicated in
paragraph 5.9 above and a survey of the entire Xxxxx AFB, to determine
if those locations or other areas should be designated as Areas of
Concerns under this Agreement. This review was conducted under the
1990 Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection (PA/SI) investigation. The
PA portion was performed between May 30 and June 20, 1990 and the SI
portion was performed from August 1 through 7, 1990. The PA/SI report
was issued in February 1991. In addition to the PA/SI investigation,
property transfer site assessments were also conducted in connection
with property transfers pursuant to section 34.2 and 10.8 of this
Agreement. As a result of these additional investigations, the
following "sites" or "areas" have been added to the Xxxxx IRP:
site 36a Pipeline Break @ Building 119
site 38 Building 120
site 39 Building 227
site 40 Auto Hobby Shop, Building 103
site 41 Golf Course Maintenance Area, Building 399
site 42 Portsmouth Reuse to Energy Plant, Building 123
site 00 XxXxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx
site 44 Paint Can Disposal Area
site 45 Old Jet Engine Test Stand
site 46 Railroad Tracks Herbicides
site 47 Golf Course Pesticide Storage and Mixing Area, Building 398
site 00 XXX Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx
0. Insert a new Section 5.9(B) to read as follows:
Locations 39, 40, and 44 are designated Areas of Concerns as defined
in Section III, Definitions, within Xxxxx AFB. These site additions
are based upon the results of the additional investigations and are
added to this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof.
Additionally, the Parties have determined that site 14 did not warrant
designation as an Area of Concern under this Agreement and, therefore
is deleted from the terms of this Agreement. Since site 13 (Bulk Fuel
Storage Area) has been determined to be strictly a petroleum release,
it is excluded from the terms of this agreement since petroleum
releases are exempted from the jurisdiction of CERCLA. Further
investigation and remediation at site 13 will be governed by the State
of New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services and regulations
governing release and cleanup of petroleum products. Locations 12, 16,
18, 36a, 38, 41-43, and 45-48 will undergo further review to determine
if they should be designated as additional Areas of Concern. The
xxxxxx and ponds, sites 21, 23-24, and 26, will be evaluated in
conjunction with their respective Zones. Zones are groupings of sites
identified by geographical proximity, similarity of contamination,
etc. Reference Appendices I and II for Zone layouts and site grouping
by Zones.
3. Revise Section 5.10 accordingly:
In line 2 insert ", 5.9(A), and 5.9(B)" between the phrase "Section
5.8" and the word "above".
4. Revise Section 14.4 accordingly:
On line 14 change the title of the Air Force representative on the
Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC) from "Director, Base Closure and
Integration Division, Headquarters, United States Air Force" to
"Director, Air Force Base Disposal Agency".
2
5. Revise Section 38.3 accordingly:
Insert "A notice of" at the beginning of paragraph 38.3. Insert "A
notice of" at the beginning of the second sentence of paragraph 38.3.
6. Revise Appendix I accordingly:
a. Remove existing page I-1 entitled "Site Locator Index" and insert new
page I-1 entitled "Installation Restoration Program Master List of
Sites". Remove "Site Locator Map" and associated plates and replace
with new page I-la, "IRP site and Zone Map".
b. Add the following to the end of the site description for the Bulk Fuel
Storage Area, BFSA (site 13), page I-5;
The Bulk Fuel Storage area has been removed from the jurisdiction of
this Agreement. The basis for this action is the fact that the BFSA is
separate from other Zone 1 IRP sites and consists totally of petroleum
product releases which are CERCLA exempt products. It is noted the
site investigation and remediation will be governed by the State of
New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services and regulations
governing the release and clean up of petroleum products.
Justification for this action is provided in an Air Force report
entitled "Proposal to Remove IRP Site 13, Bulk Fuel Storage Area from
CERCLA", June 1992, which is contained in the public information
repository located on Xxxxx AFB. The following is a brief summary of
the report. The overburden hydrogeology for the BFSA shows that there
is a groundwater divide in the center of the BFSA. The water
originating from LF-5 and the Paint Can Disposal Area (PCDA) does not
flow into the BFSA due to this divide, thus making the BFSA distinct
from its adjacent sites. The bedrock hydrogeology for the BFSA
indicates that the site is also separate from LF-5 and the PCDA. The
source areas at the BFSA are coincident with the above ground tanks
and areas around the fill stands at the BFSA. The groundwater
contamination distribution in Zone 1, focusing on the LF-5 and BFSA
xxxxx, indicates a distinct boundary between the different types of
contamination at these sites.
3
c. Add the following to the end of the site description for Fuel Line
Spill Site, FLS (site 14), page I-5;
This site was further evaluated under the 1990 PA/SI investigation. In
this investigation it was determined that the only fuel line component
in the area that could have caused the spill was a low point drain
(LPD3) located in the corner of the intersection of Apron A and
Taxiway D. The 1990 PA interviews confirmed that the break occurred in
winter and snow removal equipment and water flushing was used to
divert the majority of the spilled fuel into the storm drain. The
storm drainage plans were reviewed for this portion of the drainage
system and it was determined that the majority of the spilled fuel was
most likely discharged to the storm drain through the catch basin
immediately adjacent to the low-point drain. Overburden monitor well
544, installed during the Stage 2 work effort, is located within 50
feet of the low-point drain. No organic vapors were detected in the
soils or water during drilling. Well 544 was sampled twice during the
Stage 2 work effort with no fuel related compounds being detected
during either sampling round. The facts compiled during the 1990 PA/SI
investigation showed that immediate action was taken at the time of
the spill; the presence of snow and frozen soil is believed to have
limited the amount of fuel infiltrating into the ground; no evidence
of fuel contamination was detected in groundwater from well 544, and
the spill was a one-time incident that occurred over 30 years ago.
Therefore, the Parties concluded that site 14 did not warrant
designation as an AOC under the Xxxxx FFA.
d. Add the following new site descriptions to the end of Appendix I;
Pipeline Break at Building 119 (site 36a)
-----------------------------------------
Building 119 was the Jet Engine Maintenance Building. Wastewater from
the floor drainage system was conveyed from .a sump in building 119
through a buried pipeline to the Industrial Waste Treatment Plant
(IWTP) at Building 226. During the period 1981 to 1982 a construction
contractor was in the process of converting buried hot water heat
lines to above ground lines. While excavating the heat line to the
4
northwest of Building 119, the backhoe ruptured a 6-inch diameter
force main that carried the wastewater from Building 119 to the IWTP.
As a result of the force main rupture, an estimated 5,000 to 10,000
gallons of untreated wastewater drained into the excavation.
Building 120 (site 38)
----------------------
Building 120 was the general repair shop and is located northwest of
Building 119 along Dover Avenue. Stained soils outside the paint room
were identified during the IRP Phase I record search indicating a
spill of unknown origin or date.
Building 227 (site 39)
----------------------
Building 227 houses the largest hanger on Xxxxx AFB and served as a
major industrial maintenance area for aircraft. TCE was reported as
the common solvent used at Building 227 during the late 1950s and
1960s. Activities within Building 227 most likely resulted in releases
of petroleum and solvent products to the environment. Release pathways
would have been spills on floors, spills outside the building, leaks
from underground tanks, and discharges to the building drainage
system. Site 39 is made up of Building 227 and the surrounding parking
apron area and consists of approximately 11 acres.
Auto Hobby Shop, Building 103 (site 40)
---------------------------------------
The Auto Hobby Shop was built between 1956 and 1960 and has since been
used continuously for light maintenance and repair of privately owned
vehicles belonging to Air Force personnel. Operations at the facility
were performed in a self-service format under the control of a full-
time on-site supervisor. Specific operations performed at this site
were oil changes, tune ups, light engine repair, exhaust system
repair, vehicle washing, and auto body work and painting. Several
types of liquid wastes were generated by the shop, including waste
oil, solvents, and washdown from a washing bay used for painting and
washing vehicles.
5
Golf Course Maintenance Area, Building 399 (site 41)
----------------------------------------------------
The golf course maintenance facility was constructed about 1981.
Operations performed at the maintenance facility include oil changes
and general repair of golf carts, sprayers, and maintenance equipment.
A number of petroleum products, paints, thinners, and other liquids
were stored at the facility. Waste oil from equipment oil changes was
reportedly collected in 5gallon containers and periodically emptied in
the Auto Hobby Shop Oil Storage Xxxxxx.
Portsmouth Refuse to Energy (RTE) Plant, Building 123 (site 42)
---------------------------------------------------------------
The RTE Plant was constructed in 1981 by the City of Portsmouth on
approximately four acres of land located on Xxxxx AFB. The facility is
located along the south side of Exeter Street. The building houses the
refuse incinerators and ancillary equipment, as well as a control room
and offices. The RTE Plant operated from July 1982 until April 1987.
Refuse from the City of Portsmouth, Xxxxx AFB, Portsmouth Naval
Shipyard, and several other communities, and companies located in the
greater Portsmouth area and southern Maine was burned at the RTE
Plant. Heat from the incinerators was used to generate steam for the
base's heating system.
XxXxxxxx Road Drum Disposal Area (site 43)
------------------------------------------
This site was initially identified during the Stage 2 IRP
investigations. A cluster of drums was observed at the land surface
that appeared to be unrelated to any known IRP area. Information
inquiries during Stage 2 did not provide any additional information
regarding the history of this site. However, a few possible sources of
the drums were suspected: drums may have contained leaded fuel tank
sludge representing the southwestern border of the LFTS area, the
drums may have been related to a 0.25 mile recreation vehicle
racetrack located in the general area during the 1960s, or drums may
have been moved to the site from another area. The area of this site
is approximately 250 feet long and 50 feet wide. The visible drums
were generally rusted, unmarked, and generally dented and lying on
their side. An intensive test pitting operation was
6
conducted at this site in the fall of 1991. Results of the action
showed that no drums were actually buried at this location.
Paint Can Disposal Area (site 44)
---------------------------------
This location was initially identified during several interviews with
Air Force personnel during the 1990 PA/SI investigation. It is located
between the access road that starts behind the Civil Engineering (CE)
complex and the main road to LF-5. These dirt roads join near the
extreme southern end of LF-5. The road from the CE complex was used
over a 30-year period to provide access for storage and disposal of
drums containing paint and paint residues by both Air Force and
contractor painters, additionally, it was reported that CE also used
this area to stage and store curbing and other roadway maintenance
materials. Also, it was reported that the area at or near the junction
of the two access roads was a common location for the burial of waste
floc generated at the IWTP (Building 226). Since this area received
relatively casual use for many years, there is poor correlation
between interviews concerning the years of operation and type,
character, and volume of waste material that may have been disposed at
this site.
Old Jet Engine Test Stand (site 45)
-----------------------------------
The old jet engine test stand (OJETS) is located approximately 1,000
feet from the southwestern edge of the runway adjacent to the golf
course maintenance shed area. The test stand was constructed in
approximately 1958 and consisted of a partially enclosed engine test
stand (roof and sidewalls) and an engine control room structure. The
engine exhaust was directed out of the northern end of the containment
structure, as evidenced by exhaust residue on the ground visible in
aerial photographs from 1960 through 1965. This exhaust area appears
to be, unpaved in these early photographs, but is currently asphalt
covered except for a rock-filled crib immediately north of the test
stand. According to interview sources, the test stand received heavy
use, particularly in the mid-1960s, when the maximum number of
aircraft (B-47s)
7
were assigned to Xxxxx AFB. Use of this facility was discontinued in
the mid-1970s.
Railroad Tracks Herbicides (site 46)
------------------------------------
Herbicides were historically used along Xxxxx AFB railroad lines to
control unwanted vegetation growth during the summer months. According
to the base entomologist, Ureabor was the primary herbicide used along
the railroad lines on base. Ureabor is a commercial product
manufactured by Occidental Chemical Company. It contains about 66.5
percent sodium metaborate tetrahydrate as an active ingredient
(granular form), which acts as a soil sterilant. Typical mixture rates
of Ureabor are on the order of one 100-pound bag per 100 to 120
gallons of water. If applied properly in this concentration,
vegetative regrowth would be effectively controlled for about 2 years.
Golf Course Pesticide Storage and Mixing Area, Bldg 398 (site 47)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The pesticide storage and mixing area refers to a small (approximately
0.5 acre) area located near Building 398, about 1000 feet south of the
golf course clubhouse. Building 398 is a pumphouse adjacent to a
shallow dug well, no longer in use, that formerly served the
clubhouse. It was reported by several civilian employees of Xxxxx AFB
that this area was formerly used for mixing and storing pesticides
used on the golf course. It was further suggested that this location
was chosen due to the proximity of the well (about 150 feet) as a
water source. Reportedly, personnel mixed pesticides, fertilizers, and
topsoil in this area for use at the golf course in the 1960s. No
visible evidence of residual environmental contamination associated
with past activities was found during a field reconnaissance survey
conducted in 1990. The area was largely covered with healthy
vegetation, with no indication of surface staining or stressed
vegetation.
8
Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Burn Detonation Area (site 48)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This site is located to the southwest of the base proper near the
Weapons Storage Area. Activities within this site included excavating
trenches for burning or detonating unusable ordnance. The EOD range
was established during initial base construction and was active until
September 1990. Information on this site was obtained from several
interviews with base personnel, particularly Civil Engineering
personnel. The EOD range was the subject of a separate closure plan
conducted by the Air Force. The EOD range closure plan was completed
in early September 1990 by a task force from Hill Air Force Base and
has been certified clear of any residual ordnance. The closure work
included an ordnance sweep and fragmentation search to ensure that no
unexploded ordnance remained. Soil was sifted to remove fragmentation
particles from the EOD range, burn, and burial pit areas. No site
survey was conducted as part of early IRP investigations and the 1990
PA/SI due to restricted access at the time. It is known that initial
burn pits were excavated around 1958 to 1960, and three to four major
burn pits were excavated for the Munitions Maintenance Squadron (MMS)
over the past 30 years. Ordnance was either detonated or burned after
being placed in the pits under the supervision of the MMS group.

Force will be conducting a further review of locations 12, 14, 16, 18,
21, 23-24, and 26, and a survey of the entire Xxxxx AFB, to determine
if these or other areas should be designated as additional Areas of
Concern which require remedial work under this agreement. New Areas of
Concerns may be added to this agreement pursuant to Section 6.6
hereof.
5.9 (A) The Air Force conducted a further review of locations indicated in
paragraph 5.9 above and a survey of the entire Xxxxx AFB, to determine
if those locations or other areas should be designated as Areas of
Concerns under this Agreement. This review was conducted under the
1990 Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection (PA/SI) investigation. The
PA portion was performed between May 30 and June 20, 1990 and the SI
portion was performed from August 1 through 7, 1990. The PA/SI report
was issued in February 1991. In addition to the PA/SI investigation,
property transfer site assessments were also conducted in connection
with property transfers pursuant to section 34.2 and 10.8 of this
Agreement. As a result of these additional investigations, the

the Parties have determined that site 14 did not warrant designation
as an Area of Concern under this Agreement and, therefore is deleted
from the terms of this Agreement. Since site 13 (Bulk Fuel Storage
Area) has been determined to be strictly a petroleum release, it is
excluded from the terms of this agreement since petroleum releases are
exempted from the jurisdiction of CERCLA. Further investigation and
remediation at site 13 will be governed by the State of New Hampshire
Department of Environmental Services and regulations governing release
and cleanup of petroleum products. Locations 12, 16, 18, 36a, 38, 41-

MOD 1, Dec 1992 75
[SITE LOCATION MAP]
Bulk Fuel Storage Area, BFSA (site 13)
--------------------------------------
The Bulk Fuel Storage Area is the main fuel storage area at the base. Minor
spills have probably occurred throughout the life of the facility with only a
few major spills having been reported. In 1963, a ruptured drain line resulted
in the loss of thousands of gallons of fuel from the bulk storage Tank 3 into
the dike area, surrounding the tank. Most of the spilled fuel was recovered.
This same tank subsequently developed a small pinhole leak in 1980. Some minor
fuel loss occurred (estimated at less than 1,000 gallons) before the leak was
found and repaired. Also at the bulk storage area, a corroded vent on the fuel
transfer line at Building 160 resulted in an estimated loss of several thousand
gallons of fuel in 1975.
The Bulk Fuel Storage area has been removed from the jurisdiction of this
Agreement. The basis for this action is the fact that the BFSA is separate from
other Zone 1 IRP sites and consists totally of petroleum product releases which
are CERCLA exempt products. It is noted the site investigation and remediation
will be governed by the State of New Hampshire Department of Environmental
Services and regulations governing the release and clean up of petroleum
products. Justification for this action is provided in an Air Force report
titled "Proposal to Remove IRP Site 13, Bulk Fuel Storage Area from CERCLA",
June 1992, which is contained in the public information repository located on
Xxxxx AFB. The following is a brief summary of the report. The overburden
hydrogeology for the BFSA shows that there is a groundwater divide in the center
of the BFSA. The water originating from LF-5 and the Paint Can Disposal Area
(PCDA) do not `flow into the BFSA due to this divide, thus making the BFSA
distinct from its adjacent sites. The bedrock hydrogeology for the BFSA
indicates that the site is also separate from LF-5 and the PCDA. The source
areas at the BFSA are coincident with the above ground tanks and areas around
the fill stands at the BFSA. The groundwater contamination distribution in Zone
1, focusing on the LF-5 and BFSA xxxxx, indicates a distinct boundary between
the different types of contamination at these sites.
Fuel Line Spill Site, FLS (site 14)
-----------------------------------
In 1959 snow removal equipment ruptured a protruding vent line from the main
underground fuel line, near the northern perimeter of the aircraft parking
apron. This fuel loss was estimated to be at least 10,000 gallons. Most of the
fuel either evaporated or was flushed with water into the storm drainage system.
This site was further evaluated under the 1990 PA/SI investigation. In this
investigation it was determined that the only fuel line component in the area
that could have caused the spill was a low point drain (LPD-3) located in the
corner of the intersection of Apron A and Taxiway D. The 1990 PA interviews
confirmed that the
I-5
break occurred in winter and snow removal equipment and water flushing was used
to divert the majority of the spilled fuel into the storm drain. The storm
drainage plans were reviewed for this portion of the drainage system and it was
determined that the majority of the spilled fuel was most likely discharged to
the storm drain through the catch basin immediately adjacent to the low-point
drain. Overburden monitor well 544, installed during the Stage 2 work effort, is
located within 50 feet of the low-point drain. No organic vapors were detected
in the soils or water during drilling. Well 544 was sampled twice during the
Stage 2 work effort with no fuel related compounds being detected during either
sampling round. The facts compiled during the 1990 PA/SI investigation showed
that immediate action was taken at the time of the spill; the presence of snow
and frozen soil which is believed to have limited the amount of fuel
infiltrating into the ground; no evidence of fuel contamination was detected in
groundwater from well 544; and the spill was a one-time incident that occurred
over 30 years ago. Therefore, the Parties concluded that site 14 did not warrant
designation as an AOC under the Xxxxx FFA.
Industrial Shop/Parking Apron, IS/PA (site 15)
----------------------------------------------
This area contains the Flightline shops, hangers, and aircraft parking apron
refueling areas. As a result of initial investigation work, this site was
subdivided into six specific areas for further investigations. These areas were
designated sites 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 36. Description of these sites is
provided further on in this appendix.
PCB Spill Site (site 16)
------------------------
In 1983, a blown transformer at Building 410 resulted in the release of
approximately 35 gallons of transformer oil containing 500,000 ppm PCB. Most of
the spill was contained indoors on the concrete floor, although some oil did
reach the ground outside of the building. The contaminated soil, as well as the
transformer oil cleanup material were collected in 18 55 gallon drums. The
remaining soil was analyzed and found not to contain residual PCBs.
Construction Rubble Dump 2, CRD-2 (site 17)
-------------------------------------------
Construction Rubble Dump 2 received construction debris consisting of asphalt,
concrete, and gravel borrow. During the Stage 2 presurvey site visit, drums were
visible in the debris. No reports of hazardous waste disposal at CRD-2 have been
identified. A review of aerial photographs shows that the area has been cleared
since at least 1952, and CRD-2 probably received debris from construction of the
runway.
MOD 1, Dec 1992 I-5a
Pipeline Break at Building 119 (site 36a)
-----------------------------------------
Building 119 was the Jet Engine Maintenance Building. Wastewater from the floor
drainage system was conveyed from .a sump in building 119 through a buried
pipeline to the Industrial Waste Treatment Plant (IWTP) at Building 226. During
the period 1981 to 1982 a construction contractor was in the process of
converting buried hot water heat lines to above ground lines. While excavating
the heat line to the northwest of Building 119, the backhoe ruptured a 6-inch
diameter force main that carried the wastewater from Building 119 to the IWTP.
As a result of the force main rupture, an estimated 5,000 to 10,000 gallons of
untreated wastewater drained into the excavation.
Building 120 (site 38)
----------------------
Building 120 was the general repair shop and is located northwest of Building
119 along Dover Avenue. Stained soils outside the paint room were identified
during the IRP Phase I record search indicating a spill of unknown origin or
date.
Building 227 (site 39)
----------------------
Building 227 houses the largest hanger on Xxxxx AFB and served as a major
industrial maintenance area for aircraft. TCE was reported as the common solvent
used at Building 227 during the late 1950s and 1960s. Activities within Building
227 most likely resulted in releases of petroleum and solvent products to the
environment. Release pathways would have been spills on floors, spills outside
the building, leaks from underground tanks, and discharges to the building
drainage system. Site 39 is made up of Building 227 and the surrounding parking
apron area and consists of approximately 11 acres.
Auto Hobby Shop, Building 103 (site-40)
---------------------------------------
The Auto Hobby Shop was built between 1956 and 1960 and has since been used
continuously for light maintenance and repair of privately owned vehicles
belonging to Air Force personnel. Operations at the facility were performed in a
self-service format under the control of a full-time on-site supervisor.
Specific operations performed at this site were oil changes, tune ups, light
engine repair, exhaust system repair, vehicle washing, and auto body work and
painting. Several types of liquid wastes were generated by the shop, including
waste
MOD 1, Dec 1992 I-9
oil, solvents, and washdown from a washing bay used for painting and washing
vehicles.
Golf Course Maintenance Area, Building 399 (site 41)
----------------------------------------------------
The golf course maintenance facility was constructed about 1981. Operations
performed at the maintenance facility include oil changes and general repair of
golf carts, sprayers, and maintenance equipment. A number of petroleum products,
paints, thinners, and other liquids were stored at the facility. Waste oil from
equipment oil changes was reportedly collected in 5gallon containers and
periodically emptied in the Auto Hobby Shop Oil Storage Xxxxxx.
Portsmouth Refuse to Energy (RTE) Plant, Building 123 (site 42)
---------------------------------------------------------------
The RTE Plant was constructed in 1981 by the City of Portsmouth on approximately
four acres of land located on Xxxxx AFB. The facility is located along the south
side of Exeter Street. The building houses the refuse incinerators and ancillary
equipment, as well as a control room and offices. The RTE Plant operated from
July 1982 until April 1987. Refuse from the City of Portsmouth, Xxxxx AFB,
Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and several other communities, and companies located
in the greater Portsmouth area and southern Maine was burned at the RTE Plant.
Heat from the incinerators was used to generate steam for the base's heating
system.
XxXxxxxx Road Drum Disposal Area (site 43)
------------------------------------------
This site was initially identified during the Stage 2 IRP investigations. A
cluster of drums was observed at the land surface that appeared to be unrelated
to any known IRP area. Information inquiries during Stage 2 did not provide any
additional information regarding the history of this site. However, a few
possible sources of the drums were suspected: drums may have contained leaded
fuel tank sludge representing the southwestern border of the LFTS area, the
drums may have been related to a 0.25 mile recreation vehicle racetrack located
in the general area during the 1960s, or drums may have been moved to the site
from another area. The area of this site is approximately 250 feet long and 50
feet wide. The visible drums were generally rusted, unmarked, and generally
dented and lying on their side. An intensive test pitting operation was
conducted at this site in the fall of 1991. Results of the action showed that no
drums were actually buried at this location.
MOD 1, Dec 0000 X-00
Xxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx (site 44)
---------------------------------
This location was initially identified during several interviews with Air Force
personnel during the 1990 PA/SI investigation. It is located between the access
road that starts behind the Civil Engineering (CE) complex and the main road to
LF-5. These dirt roads join near the extreme southern end of LF-5. The road from
the CE complex was used over a 30-year period to provide access for storage and
disposal of drums containing paint and paint residues by both Air Force and
contractor painters, additionally, it was reported that CE also used this area
to stage and store curbing and other roadway maintenance materials. Also, it was
reported that the area at or near the junction of the two access roads was a
common location for the burial of waste floc generated at the IWTP (Building
226). Since this area received relatively casual use for many years, there is
poor correlation between interviews concerning the years of operation and type,
character, and volume of waste material that may have been disposed at this
site.
Old Jet Engine Test Stand (site 45)
-----------------------------------
The old jet engine test stand (OJETS) is located approximately 1,000 feet from
the southwestern edge of the runway adjacent to the golf course maintenance shed
area. The test stand was constructed in approximately 1958 and consisted of a
partially enclosed engine test stand (roof and sidewalls) and an engine control
room structure. The engine exhaust was directed out of the northern end of the
containment structure, as evidenced by exhaust residue on the ground visible in
aerial photographs from 1960 through 1965. This exhaust area appears to be,
unpaved in these early photographs, but is currently asphalt covered except for
a rock-filled crib immediately north of the test stand. According to interview
sources, the test stand received heavy use, particularly in the mid-1960s, when
the maximum number of aircraft (B-47s) were assigned to Xxxxx AFB. Use of this
facility was discontinued in the mid-1970s.
Railroad Tracks Herbicides (site 46)
------------------------------------
Herbicides were historically used along Xxxxx AFB railroad lines to control
unwanted vegetation growth during the summer months. According to the base
entomologist, Ureabor was the primary herbicide used along the railroad lines on
base. Ureabor is a commercial product manufactured by Occidental Chemical
Company. It contains about 66.5 percent sodium
MOD 1, Dec 1992 I-11
metaborate tetrahydrate as an active ingredient (granular form), which acts as a
soil sterilant. Typical mixture rates of Ureabor are on the order of one 100-
pound bag per 100 to 120 gallons of water. If applied properly in this
concentration, vegetative regrowth would be effectively controlled for about 2
years.
Golf Course Pesticide Storage and Mixing Area, Bldg 398 (site 47)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The pesticide storage and mixing area refers to a small (approximately 0.5 acre)
area located near Building 398, about 1000 feet south of the golf course
clubhouse. Building 398 is a pumphouse adjacent to a shallow dug well, no longer
in use, that formerly served the clubhouse. It was reported by several civilian
employees of Xxxxx AFB that this area was formerly used for mixing and storing
pesticides used on the golf course. It was further suggested that this location
was chosen due to the proximity of the well (about 150 feet) as a water source.
Reportedly, personnel mixed pesticides, fertilizers, and topsoil in this area
for use at the golf course in the 1960s. No visible evidence of residual
environmental contamination associated with past activities was found during a
field reconnaissance survey conducted in 1990. The area was largely covered with
healthy vegetation, with no indication of surface staining or stressed
vegetation.
Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Burn Detonation Area (site 48)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This site is located to the southwest of the base proper near the Weapons
Storage Area. Activities within this site included excavating trenches for
burning or detonating unusable ordnance. The EOD range was established during
initial base construction and was active until September 1990. Information on
this site was obtained from several interviews with base personnel, particularly
Civil Engineering personnel. The EOD range was the subject of a separate closure
plan conducted by the Air Force. The EOD range closure plan was completed in
early September 1990 by a task force from Hill Air Force Base and has been
certified clear of any residual ordnance. The closure work included an ordnance
sweep and fragmentation search to ensure that no unexploded ordnance remained.
Soil was sifted to remove fragmentation particles from the EOD range, burn, and
burial pit areas. No site survey was conducted as part of early IRP
investigations and the 1990 PA/SI due to restricted access at the time. It is
known that initial burn pits were excavated
MOD 1, Dec 1992 I-12
around 1958 to 1960, and three to four major burn pits were excavated for the
Munitions Maintenance Squadron (MMS) over the past 30 years. Ordnance was either
detonated or burned after being placed in the pits under the supervision of the
MMS group.
