remedies described in the Agreement, give to the Leasehold Mortgagee a notice that an
event of default has occurred and that City is entitled to exercise the remedies described in

provisions of the New Lease shall be the same as the terms, conditions and provisions of this

represents the then-current Base Payment of$1,175,000 plus a Closing Fee of$45,825 (6%

cannot be reasonably accomplished within such thirty (30) day period,
then Athlos shall have up to an additional one hundred eighty (180)
days so long as Athlos is diligently pursuing such performance or
observance; provided further, that if Athlos is diligently pursuing the
eviction of a subtenant due to the failure of the subtenant to comply
with the provisions of 10.1 hereof and the eviction process cannot be
reasonably accomplished within such one hundred eighty (180) day
period,then Athlos shall have such additional time as is needed for the
eviction.
(e)Athlos shall abandon, desert, or vacate any substantial
portion of the premises. In the event that the City believes a substantial
portion of the Leased Premises has been abandoned, vacated or
deserted,the City shall notify Athlos of such. If Athlos fails to respond
within thirty (30) calendar days to such notice, Athlos shall be deemed
to have abaondoned, deserted or vacated a substantial portion of the
Leased Premises under this Section.
(f)It is recognized that if Athlos is adjudged a bankrupt, or

is appointed for the benefit of its creditors (and same is not discharged

its insolvency (and same is not discharged within 60 days thereafter),
such could impair or frustrate Athlos's performance of this Agreement.
Accordingly, it is agreed that upon the occurrence of any such event,
City shall be entitled to request of Athlos or its successor in interest
adequate assurance of future performance in accordance with the terms
and conditions hereof. Failure to comply with such request within ten

by force if necessary,without being liable for prosecution or any claim

Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise.

be given to Athlos. Notwithstanding any such reletting or reentry or taking possession, the City
may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Agreement for a previous default. Pursuit of any
of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided
or any other remedies provided by law, nor shall the pursuit of any remedy herein provided
constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any payments due to the City hereunder or of any damages
accruing to the City by reason of the violation of any of the terms,provisions and covenants herein
contained. The City's acceptance of payments following an event of default hereunder shall not
be construed as the City's waiver of such event of default. No waiver by the City of any violation
or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or
constitute a waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants
Ground Lease and Purchase Option
CFW and Athlos
Page 20 of 38
herein contained. Forbearance by the City to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided
upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default.
The loss or damage that the City may suffer by reason of termination of this Agreement or the
deficiency from any reletting as provided for above shall include the expense of repossession and
any repairs or remodeling undertaken following possession. Should the City at any time terminate
this Agreement for any default, in addition to any other remedy the City may have, the City may

32
upon any property or assets of Guarantor, which conflict, breach, default, lien, charge or
encumbrance could result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor; (b)
no further consents, approvals or authorizations are required for the execution and delivery of this
Guaranty by Guarantor or for Guarantor's compliance with the terms and provisions of this
Guaranty; (c) this Guaranty is the legal, valid and binding agreement of Guarantor and is

full power, authority, capacity and legal right to execute and deliver this Guaranty, and, to the
extent Guarantor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other form of entity,
the parties executing this Guaranty on behalf of Guarantor are fully authorized and directed to
execute the same to bind Guarantor;(e) Guarantor is not,and if Guarantor is a"disregarded entity,"

Guarantor, and Guarantor represents that such reliance is reasonable.
Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall commence upon execution and delivery of any
of the Lease and shall continue in full force and effect until the full and final satisfaction of the
Obligations. The Obligations shall not be considered fully paid,performed and discharged unless

Obligations, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall
be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid to Lessor and not so rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned.
Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Guaranty, in the event
that Guarantor shall have any claims against Lessee, any indebtedness of Lessee now or hereafter
held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of Lessee to Lessor, including,
without limitation, any and all amounts due to Lessor under the Lease. Any such indebtedness of
Lessee to Guarantor, if Lessor so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor
as trustee for Lessor and be paid over to Lessor on account of the Obligations,but without reducing

unenforceability of any other paragraph contained in this Guaranty. All moneys available to

On October 12, 2016, the Mayor and City Council received an Informal Report relative to the City's intent to
lease with the option to sell the City-owned properties located at 5817 and 5901 Boca Raton Boulevard to
Athlos, LP, for the purpose of developing an International Leadership of Texas Charter School. A Ground

entity created by Athlos for this project) is being proposed to ensure the property is developed with the
education facility prior to allowing the sale of the properties to Athlos.
Under the terms of the proposed Agreement, Athlos would be granted the option to the purchase the
property any time after the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. The purchase price of$1,175,000.00 is
fixed during for the first five years of the Agreement and is based on a recent fair market value appraisal of
the property; thereafter, the purchase price would increase two percent annually. During the initial 24-
month term of the Agreement, rent in the amount of$5,875 per month would be deferred and collected in
years three through five in addition to the base rent obligation. The term of the Agreement is 30 years with
two 10-year renewal options. The annual base rent of$70,500.00 will be increased two percent every five
years during the term of the Agreement. The lease will be subordinate to construction financing, with
sufficient lease guarantees.
The properties are located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that the Property Management Department is responsible for the collection
of future lease revenue and for funds received from the sale of the property at closing.
