I. The provisions of this Lease applicable to the use of the Leased Hangar Site by individuals
shall be enforceable by Lessor directly against any sublessee, occupant or owner of aircraft hangar space
within the Leased Hangar Site, and Lessor may take direct action against such parties in the event of breach of

connection with its operations on the Leased Hangar Site, and not to permit the same to become delinquent,
and to suffer no lien, mortgage, judgment or execution to be filed against said property or improvements
thereon which will be in any way an impairment of the rights of Lessor under this Lease.
11. Indemnification. Lessee assumes the risk of loss or damage to the Leased Hangar Site, all
Improvements and FFE, the contents thereof and all other personal property, whether from windstorm, fire,
earthquake, snow, water run-off, or any other causes whatsoever. Lessee covenants and agrees that it will

Page 6
B. Lessee shall insure the Leased Hangar Site and all Improvements and FFE unless the same
are covered separately by a sub-lessee's policy containing the same provisions as this Article 12. Lessee
shall provide Lessor certificates of insurance and copies of the bonds demonstrating such coverage not later
than the Commencement Date, and upon issuance of each certificate of occupancy for each hangar building,
which shall be updated upon all renewals and changes in coverage. The certificate(s) shall provide that the
insurance may not be materially changed, altered, or canceled by the insurer without first giving ten (10)
days written notice by certified or registered United States mail, return receipt requested, to the Lessor.
C. Lessee shall not violate the terms or prohibitions of any insurance policy herein required to
be furnished by Lessee.
13. Damage or Destruction:
If any Hangar building is partially damaged or destroyed by fire, the elements, the public enemy,
or other casualty, such Hangar building shall be repaired with due diligence by Lessee at its own cost and
expense, so long as adequate insurance proceeds are received to rebuild. Such damage or destruction shall
not be grounds for abatement of Rent.
14. Surrender and Holding Over:

Hangar Site shall cease, and Lessee shall vacate the premises without unreasonable delay. Lessor shall
have the right on termination of this Lease Agreement to enter upon and take possession of the Leased

upon the same terms and conditions as provided in this Lease. However, said Rent due for the hold over
period shall be 150% of the final term year rental amount set forth herein prorated for the months of
occupancy.
15. Inconvenience During Construction
Lessee recognizes that from time to time during the term of this Lease Agreement it will be
necessary for the Lessor to initiate and carry forward programs of construction, reconstruction, expansion,
relocation, maintenance and repair in order that the Airport and its facilities may be suitable for the volume
and character of air traffic and flight activity which will require accommodation, and that such construction,
reconstruction, expansion, relocation, maintenance, and repair may inconvenience or interrupt operations
at the Airport. Lessee agrees that no liability shall attach to Lessor, its officers, agents, employees,
contractors, subcontractors and representatives by reason of such inconvenience or interruption, and for and
in further consideration of the premises, Lessee waives any right to claim damages or other consideration
therefore, provided, however, that this waiver shall not extend to, or be construed to be a waiver of, any
claim for physical damage to property resulting from negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor. The
provisions of this Section 15 shall not limit or impair other rights of Lessee provided in this Lease that relate
to extensions of time or otherwise resulting from activities at the Airport.
16. Place and Manner of Payments:
In all cases where Lessee is required by this Lease Agreement to pay any rentals, rates, fees or other
charges or to make other payments to Lessor, such payments shall be made at the Administration office of
the Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE), by mail to Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE), P.O. Box
850, Eagle, Colorado 81631, or at such other place as Lessor may hereafter designate by notice in writing

Lessee shall have the right to assign this Lease provided, however, that said Assignee shall be

Lease pursuant to this Agreement.
B. Sublease.

leasing and sale provisions that will accompany such transactions. A copy of final leases will be kept on
file at the Office of the Eagle County Regional Airport Aviation Director.
18. Agreements with United States:
This Lease Agreement is subject and subordinate to the terms, reservations, restrictions, provisions,
and conditions of any existing or future agreement between the Lessor and the United States, relative to the
operation or maintenance of the Airport and its appurtenant facilities, the execution of which has been or
may be required as a condition precedent to the participation by any Federal Agency in the extension,
expansions, or development of said Airport facilities.
19. Cancellation or Termination:
A. If Lessee is in default of any obligation under this Lease and has not cured such default
within a period of forty-five (45) days after written notice of such default and demand to cure is given by
Lessor, Lessor at its option may terminate this Lease effective upon giving notice of termination. In the event
Lessor is required to give said written notice of default, Lessor shall be entitled to charge a notice fee of
$250.00 for each notice. Said fee shall be required to be paid as a part of any payment necessary to cure any
default. Any breach of the Eagle County Regional Airport Rules and Regulations, Minimum Standards,
security plan or other rule or regulation described in Section 24 below by Lessee or by any individual
occupant of a hangar unit shall also constitute a default of the Lease subject to this Section 19.
B. If Lessee abandons the Leased Hangar Site and has not cured such default within a period
of forty-five (45) days after written notice of such default and demand to cure is given by Lessor, Lessor
may at its option cancel and terminate this Lease, or may, without terminating the Lease, enter upon and
take possession of the Lease Premises with or without process of law and without liability for trespass.
C. Lessee hereby waives any demand for the possession of the Leased Hangar Site in the event
of the termination of this Lease, and agrees that the written notice of default hereinbefore provided may be
personally delivered, mailed via certified mail by Lessor to Lessee or its legal representative, or assigns, to
DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F26E101-45B4-45B9-BD80-55E8AD9AF1A5
Page 8
such address in the United States as shall have been last furnished in writing by Lessee to Lessor, and that,
if Lessee shall not have so furnished an address, then such notice may be conspicuously posted in the main
entrance of the Hangar or in front of the Leased Hangar Site, and the giving of such notice in either of the
ways specified shall constitute good and sufficient notice for the purposes of declaring a default of this Lease.
It is also agreed that if the Leased Hangar Site is encumbered by a mortgage or trust deed, or otherwise by
said Lessee, and if the Lessor shall be notified in writing of such mortgage or deed of trust, and of the name
and address of the mortgagee or trustee named therein, notice of the default in the performance of the
covenants in this Lease shall also be delivered to said mortgagee or trustee.
D. Lessor reserves the right and Lessee agrees that Lessor acting by and through its Aviation
Director, at its sole option and without any liability to Lessor whatsoever, may cancel and terminate this
Lease for the purpose of implementing any present or future master plan for the development of or expansion
of the Airport, including, but not by way of limitation, runway or taxiway relocation, clear zone changes,
roadways, or more suitable land use needs; provided, that Lessor shall give Lessee not less than 180 days
prior written notice of termination for this purpose. In the event of such termination as provided in this
Section 19.D, Lessor may provide to Lessee suitable alternate land at the Airport for the relocation of the
Improvements and FFE. In such event, Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of relocating the
Improvements and FFE to the alternative land. Such alternative land shall be to the extent possible similar
to the Leased Hangar Site as to size and general location. Lessee reserves the right to terminate this Lease if
Lessor’s determination of suitable substitute facilities is not adequate for Lessee’s operations upon 60 days
written notice after Lessor notifies Lessee of the alternative land site.

and Airway Development Act of 1970 and the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982, as
such acts have been amended or replaced from time-to-time.
2.2. This Agreement is subordinate to any bond ordinance, indenture or covenant made by COUNTY
with respect to the Airport prior to or during the term hereof and, in the event of a conflict, the
requirements of the ordinance, indenture or covenant shall control.
2.3. This Agreement and all the provisions hereof shall be subject to whatever right the United States
Government now has or in the future may have or require affecting the control, operation,
regulation, and taking over of the Airport.
3. Protection of the Airport
3.1. COUNTY reserves the right to further develop or improve the landing area of the Airport as it sees
fit, regardless of the desires or view of the COMPANY, and without interference or hindrance.
3.2. COMPANY shall comply with the notice requirement contained in 14 C.F.R. Part 77 (Safe,
Efficient Use, and Preservation of the Navigable Airspace), as the same may be amended from time
to time (“FAR Part 77”). If the COUNTY provides notice to the FAA pursuant to FAR Part 77 in
connection with the Agreement, COMPANY shall cooperate fully by, for example and without
limitation, providing all relevant information as may be required by the COUNTY or FAA in
connection with the notice.
3.3. COMPANY shall not construct, erect or install any structure or equipment determined by the FAA
pursuant to FAR Part 77 to constitute an obstruction or hazard to air navigation. COMPANY
acknowledges that an obstruction or hazard may be found based on the height of structures and also

direction finders, air traffic control line-of-sight visibility, and physical or electromagnetic effects
on air navigation, communication facilities, and other surveillance systems. COMPANY shall
comply with any conditions, limitation, supplemental notice requirements, and marking and lighting
recommendations issued by the FAA pursuant to FAR Part 77.
3.4. COUNTY reserves for the use and benefit of the pubic the right of flight for the passage of aircraft
in the airspace above the leased premises. This public right of flight shall include the right to cause
noise, vibration and other impacts inherent in the operation of aircraft. COMPANY agrees that the
normal operation of the Airport and aircraft shall not constitute interference with COMPANY’s
rights hereunder.

it will not make use of the leased premises in any manner which might interfere with the landing

covenant is breached, COUNTY reserves the right to enter upon the Premises and cause the
abatement of such interference at the expense of the COMPANY.
