promptly notify Landlord of destruction of the Leased Premises or material damage to the
Leased Premises.
(a) Insurance Proceeds. The settlement and compromise of any insurance
claims with respect to damage or destruction of the Leased Premises shall be negotiated by
Landlord in consultation with Tenant and all insurance proceeds payable for the repair or
replacement of the Leased Premises shall be paid to and shall be the property of Landlord;
provided, however, that the foregoing proceeds payable for the repair or replacement shall be

shall submit to Landlord detailed site specific plans and specifications (i.e., construction
documents) for Tenant's repair or restoration of the Leased Premises (the "Restoration Work"),
and Tenant shall not commence construction of the Restoration Work until it has obtained
13853 1-4-7157-v 1.1 - 25 - 41-40552469
Landlord's approval of the plans and specifications therefor, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within
fifteen (15) days after its receipt of such plans and specifications (and five (5) business days of
the submission of any revised plans and specifications of any change or modification reasonably
required by the Landlord). If Landlord fails to timely respond, the plans and specifications shall

deliver amended plans and specifications to Landlord. Upon Tenant's request, Landlord shall, at
no cost to Landlord, cooperate with Tenant and assist Tenant in Tenant's efforts to obtain all
governmental permits, approvals, authorizations and entitlements required in connection with the
Restoration Work. The Restoration Work shall be constructed in full compliance with all laws,
codes, regulations and other governmental requirements.
(c) Tenant's Termination Right. Notwithstanding anything in this
Section 13.1 to the contrary, in the event of a total loss of the Leased Premises or damage to the
Leased Premises that has a material adverse effect on Tenant's operation at the Leased Premises
(as determined by Tenant) and would require more than nine (9) months to repair or rebuild,
Tenant may terminate this Lease in its entirety or with respect to the affected portion of the
Leased Premises by giving written notice thereof("Tenant's Notice") to Landlord within sixty
(60) days after the date of such loss or damage, in which event this Lease shall be considered
terminated in its entirety (or with respect to the affected portion of the Leased Premises, as
applicable) effective as of the date of such damage and destruction (the "Casualty Date").
(d) Landlord's Termination Right; Tenant's Response. If Tenant (i) does
not elect to terminate this Lease or such affected portion pursuant to clause (c) of this Section
13.1, or (ii) undertakes efforts to repair or rebuild the Leased Premises, and thereafter fails after
written notice from Landlord to diligently proceed to repair or rebuild the Leased Premises
within a commercially reasonable time, Landlord may terminate this Lease in its entirety or with
respect to the affected portion of the Leased Premises by giving written notice thereof
("Landlord's Notice") to Tenant of its intention to terminate the Lease or affected portion
thereof, and such notice to terminate the Lease in its entirety or with respect to the affected
portion of the Leased Premises shall be effective thirty (30) days after the date such Landlord's
Notice is given to Tenant (the "Noticed Date of Termination"); provided that in lieu of such
termination, and upon written notice of Tenant to Landlord during such thirty (30) days
following Landlord's Notice, Tenant may elect to have any reduction and abatement of Base
Rent, Additional Rent and all other applicable Fees and charges due and payable by Tenant
hereunder cease as of the Noticed Date of Termination of this Lease or portion thereof by
Landlord. Upon any such election by Tenant, this Lease or the portion thereof relating to the
affected portion of the Leased Premises shall not terminate so long as Tenant commences
payment of such Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other applicable Fees and charges due and
payable by Tenant hereunder accruing from and after the Noticed Date of Termination.
(e) Termination of the Lease or a Portion Thereof. Upon any termination
of this Lease or portion thereof in accordance with this Section 13.1, Landlord shall provide
Tenant reasonable access to the Leased Premises or terminated portion thereof for a period of not
more than ninety (90) days following the Tenant's Notice or the Landlord's Notice, as applicable,
for Tenant to remove all personal property of Tenant and its vendors and customers. If this
13853 1-4-7 157-v 1.1 _ 26 _ 41-40552469
Lease is terminated as to less than all of the Leased Premises, Base Rent, Additional Rent and all
other applicable Fees and charges due and payable by Tenant hereunder will be proportionately
adjusted. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Section 13.1, Base Rent, Additional
Rent and all other applicable Fees and charges due and payable by Tenant hereunder shall be
proportionately 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 the same or substantially similar manner as previously conducted.
Section 13.2 Condemnation. If the Leased Premises or any portion thereof is taken by
eminent domain, 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 13.2.
Tenant may bring a separate claim in Tenant's name to recover damages and 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. If Tenant determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such part of the Leased
Premises has 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 thirty (30) days after such taking. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to the terms of
this Section 13.2, 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 Fees
and charges due and payable by Tenant hereunder shall be proportionately adjusted.
Section 13.3 Casualty or Condemnation Other than the Leased Premises. If all or
any portion of the IWTF, the Fuel Farm, the Central Utility Plant, or any other part of the
Property 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 or
affected portion of the Property; provided, however, in the event (i) there is a total loss or
material damage to any such facility or affected portion of the Property that precludes Tenant's
operations and there are no reasonable alternatives to effect Tenant's operations at the Leased
Premises (as determined by Tenant) and would require more than three (3) months to repair or
rebuild, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Landlord 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 13.3, the Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other charges
due hereunder shall be proportionately 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.

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 (vi) withhold or

remedies of Landlord set forth in this Lease or available under applicable law are cumulative.
Section 16.3 Guaranty.
(a) Tenant shall cause the Guarantor to assume and be bound by the Tenant's
obligations, covenants and agreements contained in this Lease, in the same manner and to the
same extent as the Tenant, and cause Guarantor to execute and deliver to the Landlord a guaranty
in substantially the same form as attached hereto as Exhibit G, provided, however, Landlord will

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Guarantor's guaranty
shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) the date upon which the sixth (6th)
year of the Lease Term commences, provided Tenant shall have a minimum tangible net worth

evidenced by documentation reasonably deemed sufficient by Landlord, and (ii) the date all of
138531-4-7157-v1.1 - 30 - 41-40552469
Tenant's obligations, covenants and agreements contained in this Lease have been fully

Section 16.4 Measure of Damages.
(a) Performance of Tenant's Obligations. If Landlord cures Tenant's
Default, then Tenant will immediately pay Landlord (A) all reasonable expenses incurred by
Landlord in enforcing this Lease, including all legal costs (including attorneys' fees), (B) all
reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in curing Tenant's Default, and (C) 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 (A) the cost of recovering the Leased Premises
and removing and storing Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment, and personal property or other
property, and (B) the amounts referenced in clauses (A) through (C) of paragraph(a) of this
Section 16.4. 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 to be payable in
accordance with the provisions in clause (c) of this Section 16.4.
(c) Damages for Remainder of the Term. If Landlord terminates Tenant's
right to possess the Leased Premises but not this Lease, then Tenant will pay to Landlord upon
demand in addition to the amounts set forth in Section 16.4(b), the present value of the amount
(never less than zero) by which (A) the total Base Rent or any other fee or charge due and
payable as required hereunder payable by Tenant for the portion of the Term remaining after the
month in which the termination becomes effective exceeds (B) the Fair Rental Value of the
Leased Premises for the same period. In calculating present value, each payment of Base Rent
and Fair Rental Value will be discounted at 4% from its respective due date to the date of
termination. The Fair Rental Value is the total rental (including all amounts payable by Tenant
under this Lease) that would be received from a tenant of comparable creditworthiness for space
of equivalent quality, size, condition, remaining lease term, and location as the Leased Premises,
taking into account rental rates and concessions then generally prevailing in the market place, the
period of time the Leased Premises is reasonably expected to remain vacant before
commencement of rental payments by a suitable new tenant, and all other relevant factors.
Section 16.5 Mitigation of Damages. Upon termination of Tenant's right to possess
the Leased Premises, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to mitigate damages by reletting 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 take
only a part of the Leased Premises or (B) to change the permitted use.

Subject: RE: GDC Technics Lease and Sublease Agreements
I thought we had sent the GDC lease down there for you guys to number? But maybe not.
The lease is very similar to the TAESL lease, but the GDC one is a lease with the City, not the Authority, because it was
signed after the property was transferred from the Authority to the City. So, it needs a CSC number. I will try to track
down an original for you.
The sublease is not a City contract because it is between GDC and TAESL;the City isn't a party. And what he gave you to
file isn't the sublease itself, only our authorization for it. So, it would be easier for everyone, I think, if you give it a
suffix.
Very confusing, huh?!

Subject: GDC Technics Lease and Sublease Agreements
Leann,
Jay came to the office this afternoon and asked us to assign a contract number to the GDC Sublease. However,
we didn't have the Facilities Lease Agreement that the sublease accompanies. He sent me an electronic version
without original signatures. Is this the same type of thing as the A1lianceAirport Authority contracts with
TAESL? And do we assign two separate contract numbers or can we do the sublease as the five-digit number
with—CAI as the suffix?
Please advise in writing so that I can add it to the contract file. Thanks!
