(a) All Improvements completed by Tenant shall remain a part of the Leased Premises

requests or permits Tenant to remove specifically identified Improvements at the end of the Term,
in which case Tenant shall remove such Improvements and repair any damage to the Leased
Premises caused by such removal.
(b) Tenant shall have no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration or
termination of the Lease to request and obtain written approval from Landlord to remove
Improvements specifically identified by Tenant that were not requested for removal under Section

sixty (60) days after the expiration or termination of the Lease to remove such identified
Improvements and the ownership of any such Improvements not removed within sixty (60) days
after the expiration or termination of the Lease shall automatically transfer to Landlord. Landlord

such Improvement.
12.3 Plans. Tenant may not perform any Improvements that (i) are related to or would affect
the structural integrity of the Leased Premises or (ii) are estimated to cost more than One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) unless it first submits all plans, specifications and estimates for
the costs of the proposed work ("Plans") in writing and also requests and receives in writing
approval from the Landlord for same, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Landlord shall have thirty (30) days from the date of submission of all
required documentation to approve or disapprove Tenant's request to perform Improvements, and
if approval is granted, Landlord shall specify in writing whether Tenant will be required to remove
the Improvements and restore the Leased Premises to substantially the same condition as before
the Improvement, or whether Tenant shall not remove the Improvement, upon termination of this
Lease; provided, however, if at the time Tenant submits its plans, specifications and estimates to
Landlord Tenant requests the right to remove certain Improvements either upon termination of this
Lease or before, Tenant shall be entitled to so remove such Improvements unless, within said thirty
(30) day period, Landlord expressly denies such request in writing (Landlord's approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Tenant's plans for construction for any

with Landlord's health, safety, and environmental processes, rules, and policies for the Leased
Premises. Landlord shall have the right to inspect all work pursuant to its usual construction
inspection procedures. The approval by Landlord of any plans or specifications shall not constitute
approval of the architectural or engineering design, and Landlord, by approving the plans and
specifications, assumes no liability or responsibility for the architectural or engineering design or
for any defect in any building or improvement constructed from the plans or specifications. Insofar
as Improvements are concerned, Tenant's surrender obligation under Section 2.2 shall be satisfied
by Tenant's compliance with this Section 12.3.

provided that this agreement shall not constitute a waiver or alteration of the City of Fort Worth's
processes and requirements for permits as the permitting authority. Tenant shall work diligently
toward completion of, and shall complete, any started Improvements, all substantially in
accordance with the approved plan specifications and using contractors reasonably acceptable to
Landlord. Any of Landlord's Adjoining Property that is damaged as a direct result of performing
an Improvement shall be repaired by Tenant and returned to its previous condition or better, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense.

(c) full lien releases for all contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers for the
Improvements; and
(d) copies of all required permits and warranties for the Improvements.

good and workmanlike manner, by qualified and licensed contractors or mechanics, and shall
comply with any and all Rules and Regulations. Title to and ownership of Improvements shall be
and remain in Tenant during the Term hereof, but shall automatically transfer to Landlord upon
termination of this Lease, unless Landlord required or permitted pursuant to Section 12.1 or
Section 12.2 that such Improvements be removed at the end of the Term, in which case Tenant
shall remove such Improvements and repair any damage to the Leased Premises caused by such
removal. Tenant shall have ninety (90) days after the expiration or termination of the Term, subject
to all requirements of Section 2.2, and adequate access to the Leased Premises to remove same
Page 24 of 51
Omni Air International, LLC
Facilities Lease Agreement
following receipt of such written request, and the ownership of any Improvements not so removed
within ninety (90) days shall automatically transfer to Landlord. Tenant acknowledges and agrees
that changes to the exterior of the Leased Premises must comply with Landlord's then -current
color and appearance requirements as disclosed by Landlord to Tenant, and Tenant shall not make
any alterations, improvements or additions to the exterior of the Leased Premises (including
painting the exterior of the Leased Premises) without Landlord's prior written consent.
12.7 Indemnification. TENANT FURTHER AGREES TO DEFEND AND INDEMNIFY
LANDLORD FROM ANY CLAIM ASSERTED BY LIEN CLAIMANTS ON THE
FACILITY, ARISING OUT OF THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY MAINTENANCE,
REPAIR, REPLACEMENT, IMPROVEMENT OR ALTERATION BY TENANT OR
TENANT'S CONTRACTOR ON THE FACILITY.
12.8 Liens and Encumbrances. Tenant covenants and agrees that, except for this Lease, it will
not create or suffer to be created any lien, encumbrance, or charge (collectively, "Liens"), upon
the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, and that it will promptly satisfy or cause to be discharged,
or will make adequate provision to satisfy and discharge, and in any event within thirty (30) days
after the same shall occur, all claims and demands against Tenant or because of work contracted
for or requested by Tenant for labor, materials, supplies or other items which, if not satisfied, might
by law become a Lien upon the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, provided that Liens for labor
and materials arising by operation of statutory law shall not be within the purview of this paragraph
if, when such Liens shall be perfected, Tenant shall cause them to be promptly discharged, or if
Tenant is diligently contesting the validity of such Lien, Tenant may utilize the provisions of the
next succeeding sentences. If any such Lien shall be filed or asserted against Tenant or the Leased
Premises by reason of work, labor, services or materials supplied or claimed to have been supplied
to Tenant, on the Leased Premises, at the request or with the permission of Tenant or of anyone
claiming under it, Tenant shall, promptly, but within thirty (30) days after it receives notice of the
imposition of the filing thereof or the assertion thereof against the Leased Premises, cause the same
to be discharged of record, or effectively prevent the enforcement or foreclosure thereof, by
contest, payment, deposit, bond, order of court or otherwise. If Tenant breaches its obligations
under this Section 12.8, then, following ten (10) business days prior written notice to Tenant,
Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but
not the obligation, to cause such lien to be released by such means as Landlord deems proper,
including payment of the claim giving rise to such Lien. Any amount expended by Landlord in
the performance of Tenant's obligations shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord promptly upon written
demand therefore accompanied by appropriate documentation of such expenditures.

such damage, except as provided in Section 14.4, promptly and with due diligence repair the

in this Article XIV, Landlord shall have no obligation to repair the Leased Premises if either: (a)

another party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

the affected portion thereof by giving written notice thereof ("Tenant's Notice") to Landlord within
sixty (60) days after the date of such total loss or damage, in which event this Lease shall be
considered terminated in its entirety (or with respect to the affected portion, as applicable) effective
as of the date of such damage and destruction (the "Casualty Date").
14.7 Termination of the Lease or a Portion Thereof. Upon any termination of this Lease or
portion thereof in accordance with this Article XIV, Landlord shall provide Tenant reasonable
access to the Leased Premises or terminated portion thereof for a period of not more than ninety

vendors and customers. If this Lease is terminated as to less than all of the Leased Premises, the
Base Rent, Additional Rent, and all other applicable charges due and payable by Tenant hereunder
will be equitably adjusted. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Article XIV, the Base
Rent, Additional Rent and all other applicable charges due and payable by Tenant hereunder shall
be equitably reduced and abated during any period of time in which the Leased Premises (or any
portion thereof) cannot be reasonably used by Tenant to conduct Tenant's business operations in

(or such portion thereof) is unfit for the conduct of such operations.

the total amount of any condemnation awards paid or payable to Landlord or Tenant shall be
apportioned between Landlord and Tenant according to this Section 14.8. Tenant shall receive that
part of any condemnation awards or compensation that is attributable to the fair market value of
any improvements that were constructed or replaced by Tenant using its own funds and any
personal property or movable trade fixtures that were installed by Tenant using solely its own
funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may bring a separate claim in Tenant's name to
recover damages for the fair market value of any improvements that were constructed by Tenant
and any personal property or movable trade fixtures that were installed by Tenant using its own
funds. If Tenant determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such part of the Leased Premises has
Page 28 of 51
Omni Air International, LLC

been taken so as to materially interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, then Tenant may
terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of such election to Landlord within ninety (90)
days after such taking. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.8,
then this Lease shall terminate only to the part of the Leased Premises so taken as of the date of
the taking, and the Base Rent, the Additional Rent and all other applicable charges due and payable
by Tenant hereunder shall be equitably adjusted.

IWTF, the Fuel Farm, the Central Utility Plant, or any other part of the Base necessary for Tenant's
operations at the Leased Premises that is owned by Landlord or leased by Landlord are damaged,
destroyed or taken by eminent domain, Landlord shall, upon request of Tenant, apply any available
insurance proceeds or condemnation awards towards, and commence with due diligence to
complete, the repair or replacement of the applicable facility; provided, however, in the event (i)
the available insurance or condemnation proceeds are insufficient to rebuild or repair the
applicable facility and Tenant is not willing to pay the difference in such cost of rebuild or repair,
or (ii) there is a total loss or material damage to any such facility that has a material adverse effect
on Tenant's operations at the Leased Premises (as determined by Tenant) and would require more
than one hundred eighty (180) days to repair or rebuild, either party may terminate this Lease by
giving written notice thereof to the other party within sixty (60) days after the date of such total
loss or material damage, in which event this Lease shall be considered terminated effective as of
the date of such damage and destruction. Upon any such termination, Landlord shall provide to
Tenant reasonable access to the Leased Premises for a period of not more than ninety (90) days
following such termination notice for Tenant to remove all personal property of Tenant and its
vendors and customers. If this Lease is not terminated as provided by this Section 14.9, the Base
Rent, Additional Rent and all other charges due hereunder shall be equitably abated and adjusted
from the date of such damage, destruction or taking, but only for such time and to the extent the
Leased Premises (or such portion thereof) cannot be reasonably used by Tenant to conduct
Tenant's business operations in the same or substantially similar manner as previously conducted,
or may not be so conducted without material additional cost or expense to Tenant, but only to the
extent the Leased Premises (or such portion thereof) is unfit for the conduct of such operations.

business days following Tenant's receipt of written notice from Landlord that such payment is
past due;
(b) Tenant fails to observe or perform any of the material covenants, conditions or
provisions of this Lease, and such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days following
Tenant's receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice specifically describes the
default in question; provided, however, that in the event such default is not capable of being cured
within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be given such additional time as is required to
cure such default so long as Tenant commences such cure within such thirty (30) day period of
the Event of Default and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion within forty-five (45) days
of the Event of Default; or
(c) Tenant abandons the Leased Premises (except for a Permitted Absence) and fails
to reoccupy the Leased Premises within thirty (30) days following Tenant's receipt of written
notice thereof from Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may abandon or vacate the
Leased Premises at any time during the last three (3) months of the Term, provided that it
otherwise performs its other obligations under this Lease. "Permitted Absence" means any
abandonment or vacation of the Leased Premises by Tenant resulting from an event of force
majeure, casualty damage, or condemnation.
17.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may: (i) terminate this
Lease; (ii) terminate Tenant's right of possession of the Leased Premises, without terminating this
Lease, and relet the Leased Premises on behalf of Tenant; (iii) enter and take possession of the
Leased Premises; (iv) remove and store all Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment, and personal
property in the Leased Premises; (v) enter the Leased Premises and cure the Event of Default; and

the Leased Premises without terminating this Lease, elect to terminate this Lease and pursue any
and all other rights and remedies otherwise available upon such latter election. All of the rights
and remedies of Landlord set forth in this Lease or available under Applicable Law are
cumulative.
17.3 Measure of Damages.
(a) Performance of Tenant's Obligations. If Landlord cures Tenant's Default, then
Tenant will immediately pay Landlord (i) all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in
Page 31 of 51
Omni Air International, LLC
Facilities Lease Agreement
enforcing this Lease, including all legal costs (including attorneys' fees), (ii) all reasonable
expenses incurred by Landlord in curing Tenant's Default, and (iii) all other damages incurred by
Landlord due to the Event of Default, subject to Landlord's duty to mitigate any and all such
damages.
(b) Surrender, Outstanding Obligations. If Landlord terminates Tenant's right to
possess the Leased Premises but not this Lease, then Tenant will immediately vacate and
surrender the Leased Premises and pay Landlord (i) the reasonable cost of recovering the Leased
Premises and removing and storing Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment, and personal property
or other property and (ii) the amounts referenced in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 17.3(a).
All Base Rent or any other fee or charge due and payable as required hereunder will continue to
accrue after Landlord terminates Tenant's right of possession and is to be payable in accordance
with the provisions in Section 17.3(c).
(c) Lease Pavments for Remainder of the Term. If Landlord terminates Tenant's right
to possess the Leased Premises but not this Lease, then Tenant will be obligated to pay to Landlord
the Base Rent plus fees or charges due as defined in this Lease until the Term of this Lease ends
or pay the amount in full at any time during the remainder of the Term of this Lease based upon
the net present value, the discount rate for this calculation being four percent (4%). Tenant's
obligation to pay Landlord such Base Rent or other fees shall be reduced by the Base Rent or
other fees paid by any new or other tenant who relets the Leased Premises. In the event Landlord
relets the Leased Premises for the same or greater Base Rent as required under this Lease, then
Tenant shall be released from the obligation to pay Base Rent to Landlord.
17.4 Landlord Reasonable Efforts to Relet. Upon termination of Tenant's right to possess the
Leased Premises, to the extent required by applicable law, Landlord will use reasonable efforts
to relet the Leased Premises. Landlord will be deemed to be acting reasonably if Landlord refuses
to lease the Leased Premises to a prospective new Tenant who (i) is an Affiliate of Tenant, (ii)
requires additional leasehold improvements to be made at Landlord's expense, or (iii) desires (A)
to lease for a shorter or longer term than remains under this Lease, (B) to reconfigure or combine
the Leased Premises with other space, (C) to take only a part of the Leased Premises, or (D) to
change the permitted use.
17.5 Default by Landlord. Landlord will in no event be charged with a default in the
performance of any obligations under this Lease unless and until Landlord has failed to perform
such obligations for a period of thirty (30) days, except in cases of emergency, to cure any such
default after written notice by Tenant is received by Landlord properly specifying Landlord's
failure to perform any such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's
obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Landlord shall
not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion (but not to exceed an additional sixty (60)
days). If Landlord fails to perform Landlord's obligations within such timeframe after receipt of
written notice of such default, except in cases of emergency, Tenant may at its option (but shall
not be required to) perform such obligations on Landlord's behalf, and the actual and reasonable
costs thereof shall be due and payable by Landlord within thirty (30) days after written notice to
Landlord. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event Tenant has not
Page 32 of 51
Omni Air International, LLC
Facilities Lease Agreement
received such payment within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant may offset said amounts
against Base Rent subject to the Offset Limit (as such term is defined herein). The maximum
amount that Tenant may deduct in any one month (the "Offset Limit") shall be limited to the
greater of (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the then monthly base rent or (ii) the amount necessary
to fully amortize in equal monthly amounts the amount due (including interest of 8% per annum)
over the remainder of the Term (including any shortened Term if this Lease is terminated prior to
its current expiration date, and assuming no extensions of the Term beyond its current expiration
date).

substances which change the quality of the Jet Fuel after delivery thereof to the Fuel Farm and
take all other reasonable steps to preserve the quality of the Jet Fuel in Landlord's possession in
the Fuel Farm.

and losses of Jet Fuel from the Fuel Farm.
Inventory Reconciliations. Landlord (or Fuel Services Company on its behalf) shall keep
current, complete and accurate inventory records of the Jet Fuel in the Fuel Farm as follows:
(a) Receipts into inventory and disbursements from inventory shall be recorded in net
and/or gross gallons as agreed by the parties from time to time. At approximately the same time
each day, Landlord shall take inventory measurements of each fuel tank and, for each measurement
so taken, Landlord shall record the volume and the time of day such measurement was made. Each
disbursement of Jet Fuel shall be recorded on individual fueling tickets unless an alternate
arrangement is agreed upon in writing by Landlord and Tenant.
(b) Using the above daily measurements, Landlord shall reconcile monthly the physical
inventory to the calculated inventory and, at reasonable times upon reasonable notice and request,
present such reconciliation to the Tenant and, as applicable, Landlord's other tenants using the
Fuel Farm. Such reconciliation shall explain to Tenant's commercially reasonable satisfaction the
receipt and distribution of all Jet Fuel, including all operating gains or losses of inventory.
(c) Landlord shall be responsible for all losses of Jet Fuel that result from Landlord's
negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall be responsible for all loss or disappearances of
Jet Fuel in excess of the level of losses allowed in ATA 103 that cannot be reconciled as required

Landlord's control; provided that, if on the Effective Date, the actual level of Jet Fuel loss is in
excess of the level of losses allowed by ATA 103, then Landlord shall have six (6) months to
bring the Fuel Farm operations into compliance with ATA 103. Within thirty (30) days following

tenants using the Fuel Farm during such previous year, based upon the percentage ownership of
the Jet Fuel in the Fuel Farm during the period. All gains and losses for which Landlord is not
responsible shall be determined monthly and shared proportionately by Tenant and Landlord's
other tenants using the Fuel Farm based upon total monthly volume withdrawn from the Fuel Farm
for the month in question.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any liability of Landlord for Jet
Fuel lost, contaminated or otherwise damaged or destroyed while in Landlord's custody or control
shall be limited to the replacement value of such Jet Fuel, the cost of removing and replacing such
Jet Fuel, any costs of environmental remediation and fines or charges related to removing and
replacing such Jet Fuel, and all costs associated with tank cleaning and filter replacements required
due to contamination of such Jet Fuel.
(e) Landlord (or Fuel Services Company on its behalf) will maintain a perpetual
inventory of Tenant owned Jet Fuel and all other Jet Fuel inventory (by owner and withdrawal) in
the Fuel Farm and will reconcile such inventory on no less than a monthly basis and make such
inventory records and information available to Tenant upon reasonable notice.
