The following introductory provisions are true and correct and form the basis of this V,
Amendment.
A. On or about July 29, 1997, the City and Alliance Aviation Investors, L.P. entered
into City Secretary Contract No. 23512 (the "Ground Lease"), a lease of real property at Fort
Worth Alliance Airport generally known as Tracts 2 and 5, as more specifically defined and
depicted in the Ground Lease.
B. On or about February 5, 1998,Alliance Aviation Investors, L.P. assigned all of its
rights, titles and interests as tenant under the Ground Lease to Lessee.
C. The term of the Ground Lease is approximately thirty (30) years and six (6)
months, Lessee wishes to extend the term by an additional ten (10) years. Article XrV, Section
17 of the City's Minimum Standards for Fixed Base Operators and Other Airport Tenants, a
public document adopted by the Fort Worth City Council ("Council") on June 16, 1992, limits
the term of any lease of property on a City-owned airport to a maximum of forty (40) years
(thirty(30) years, with an option or options to renew the lease for up to ten(10) additional years,
unless*a different combination is specifically authorized by the Council, as occurred in this case).
Therefore,Lessee's request can only be granted, to the greatest extent possible, by amending the
Lease to grant Lessee an option to renew the Lease for a term commencing upon expiration of
the original term and expiring on the fortieth anniversary of the Effective Date of the Ground
Lease,
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which are hereby acknowledged, the City and Lessee agree as follows:
1. Article I (Term; No Cross Default) of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting the last
two sentences of Section 1.1 and adding the following provisions below Section 1.1:
Amendment No. I to City Secretary Contract No.23512
Page I
1.1.1 The term of this Ground Lease shall begin on January 19, 1999 (which is
the date on which the City issued a certificate of occupancy for the
Aviation Related Facilities and is the "Effective Date" as used in this
Ground Lease) and shall expire on July 31, 2029 (which is the last day of
the 366th month following the month in which the Effective Date falls)
unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof
("Initial Term").
1.1.2 If Lessee performs and abides by all provisions and conditions of this
lease, then upon expiration of the Initial Tenn Lessee will have an option
to renew this Ground Lease for an additional term commencing August 1,
2029 and expiring January 18, 2039 ("Renewal Term"). Lessee may
exercise this option by providing written notice of its intent to renew this
Ground Lease for the Renewal Term not less than one (1) year prior to the
expiration of the Initial Term. If Lessee exercises its option to renew this
Ground Lease for the Renewal Term, all terms and conditions of this
Ground Lease shall continue in full force and effect during the Renewal
Term.
1.1.2. Not more than three (3) years prior to expiration of the Renewal Term,
Lessee may notify the City in writing of a desire to renew this Ground
Lease for an additional ten (10).year term (the "Subsequent Renewal
Request"). The City, in the City's sole discretion, may (i) grant the
Renewal Request, either by entering into a new lease or, if allowed by
then-current laws and/or City regulations, by amending this Ground Lease,
or(ii) deny the Renewal Request provided that the basis for such denial is
not unreasonable under the circumstances.
2. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, references in the Ground Lease to the "term" of
the Ground Lease shall,without limitation, include the Initial Term and the Renewal Term.
3. All terms in this Amendment that are capitalized but not defined shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Lease.
4. This Amendment contains the final written expression of the City and Lessee with
respect to the subject matter hereof. This Amendment shall be effective upon execution by both
the City and Lessee and may be executed in multiples.
