5. Right of First Refusal. For, and in consideration of, the payment by City to the Association
of $12,500, the Association shall grant to City a right of first refusal under the terms of this Section Five.
If Association at any time (i) receives from or makes to a third party (other than a governmental entity)
an offer to purchase, sell, or lease, or to enter into an option for the purchase, sale, or lease of, all or any
part of the Fire Engine, then Association shall notify City in writing (the "Notice"), giving the name of
the offeror (if applicable) and the terms and conditions of the offer or proposed offer. City shall have 60
days from its receipt of the Notice in which to elect (by giving written notice of its election to
Association, its successors or assigns) to purchase or lease the Property (or portion thereof) for the
amount of $25,000, regardless of the terms and conditions of the offer received by the Association. The
failure of City to respond within 60 days after its receipt of the Notice shall constitute City's election not
to purchase or lease the Fire Engine (or portion thereof). If City does not elect within the 60-day period
to purchase or lease the Fire Engine (or portion thereof), then Association shall have the right to sell or
lease the Fire Engine (or portion thereof) on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Notice given
to City (and only to the party or parties submitting an offer under (i) above, if applicable); provided,
however, that such sale or lease must be finally consummated within 180 days after City elects not to
exercise its right of first refusal.

of the other parry, to any entity for consideration or no consideration, whether voluntarily, by operation
of law, or otherwise, and any attempt to do so shall be void, and any such attempt shall cause immediate
termination of this Agreement.
8. Severability. If any clause or provision of this License is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable because of present or future laws or any rule or regulation of any governmental body or
entity, effective during the License Term, the intention of the parties hereto is that the remaining parts of
this License shall not be affected thereby unless such invalidity is, in the sole determination of the
Licensor, essential to the rights of both parties, in which event Licensor has the right, but not the
obligation, to terminate the License on written notice to Licensee.
9. Default. A default by either party is the failure to comply with any provision of this
Agreement that is not cured within thirty days after written notice. A parry's remedies for the other
party's default are to (1) sue for damages and (2) terminate this Agreement.
