7.5.2 The TERMINAL BUILDING Space Rental Rate and Total Space Rent for all
SIGNATORY AIRLINES for the succeeding year of the LEASE shall then be
calculated as follows:
7.5.2.1 Divide the Total Space Costs calculated in Section 7.5.1 by the total
square footage of rentable space in the TERMINAL BUILDING (which,
as set forth in Exhibit B, consists of all SIGNATORY AIRLINES' leased
PREMISES, concession rented space, other non -airline rented space and
other non -airline rentable space that is not leased) to determine the full
cost recovery Space Rental Rate. The Space Rental Rate to be applied to
AIRLINE PREMISES shall be the full cost recovery Space Rental Rate
reduced by the subsidy percentages specified in Exhibit B during each
year of the Lease.
7.5.2.2 Multiply the subsidized Space Rental Rate (per square foot per year)
calculated in Section 7.5.2.1 times the square footage of all SIGNATORY
AIRLINES' leased PREMISES to determine the AIRLINES' Total Space
Rent for the TERMINAL BUILDING.
7.5.3 The TERMINAL BUILDING Joint Rights Purchase Rent for all SIGNATORY
AIRLINES for the succeeding year of the LEASE shall consist of the debt service,
any debt service coverage requirements (to the extent such requirements are not
funded) and other debt -related costs on the RIGHTS PURCHASE BONDS.
7.5.4 The TERMINAL BUILDING Total Rental Requirement for all SIGNATORY
AIRLINES shall consist of the sum of the Total Space Rent and the Joint Rights
Purchase Rent as provided in Exhibit B, Calculation of Terminal Space Rent, for the
succeeding year of the LEASE. AIRLINE's allocation of the annual Total Rental
Requirement shall be determined as follows:
7.5.4.1 AIRLINE's rent for EXCLUSIVE USE SPACE shall be determined by
multiplying the Space Rental Rate (calculated in Section 7.5.2.2) times the
square footage of AIRLINE's EXCLUSIVE USE SPACE (as set forth in
Exhibits A and B).
7.5.4.2 The total rent for the JOINT USE SPACE shall be determined by
multiplying the Space Rental Rate (calculated in Section 7.5.2.2) times the
29
total square footage of the JOINT USE SPACE (as set forth in Exhibits A
and B). AIRLINE's share of rent for the JOINT USE SPACE shall be
based on the JOINT USE FORMULA.
7.5.4.3 AIRLINE's share of the Joint Rights Purchase Rent shall be based on the
ratio of the number of AIRLINE's enplaned passengers at the AIRPORT
during the most recent calendar year for which such information is
available to the total number of enplaned passengers of all SIGNATORY
AIRLINES during that same calendar year.
7.5.5 For each year of the LEASE, CORPORATION shall establish by resolution a NON -
SIGNATORY AIRLINE TERMINAL BUILDING rental rate equal to the Total
Rental Requirement (as set forth in Section 7.5.4 and Exhibit B) divided by the total
square footage of rentable space in the TERMINAL BUILDING (as set forth in
Section 7.5.2.1 and Exhibit B) plus fifty percent (50%).
Section 7.6 Reconciliation of Prior Year TERMINAL BUILDING Rent
7.6.1 After completion and approval of the annual audit of the CORPORATION's financial
statements conducted by an independent accountant, the CORPORATION shall
provide a final accounting of the Calculation of TERMINAL BUILDING Rent for the
prior year of the LEASE in accordance with provisions of this Article 7. The actual
TERMINAL BUILDING Total Rental Requirement shall be calculated by the
CORPORATION based on actual OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
EXPENSES, Minor Capital Expenditures, debt service, debt service coverage
requirements (if any), other debt -related costs, TERMINAL BUILDING rentable
space and other relevant factors. The CORPORATION shall then calculate the
amounts of TERMINAL BUILDING rentals that should have been paid by each of
the SIGNATORY AIRLINES during the preceding year of the LEASE based on such
actual data, following the procedures set forth in Sections 7.4 and 7.5. Amounts paid
in excess of actual requirements (surpluses) shall be refunded by the
CORPORATION, subject to offset by the CORPORATION of any other amounts
owed to the CORPORATION by the AIRLINE, to the SIGNATORY AIRLINES that
conducted AIR TRANSPORTATION operations at the AIRPORT during the
preceding year of the LEASE within thirty (30) days of the CORPORATION's
approval of the completed audit. The CORPORATION shall prepare and transmit
invoices to the SIGNATORY AIRLINES that conducted AIR TRANSPORTATION
operations at the AIRPORT for amounts actually required in excess of amounts paid
(deficits) within twenty (20) days of the CORPORATION's approval of the
completed audit. AIRLINE shall then pay the CORPORATION within thirty (30)
days of the invoice date, subject to offset of Net Concession Revenue Refunds due to
Airline from the CORPORATION in accordance with Section 6.6.
7.6.2 Upon written request of the AIRLINE, CORPORATION shall furnish a copy of the
30
,%WW✓ lmw/
CORPORATION's annual audit report after its completion and approval covering the
operation of the TERMINAL BUILDING for the preceding FISCAL YEAR.
Section 7.7 Extraordinary Adjustments of TERMINAL BUILDING
Total Rental Requirement
7.7.1 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if at any time during the Term of this
LEASE, the estimated amount of the TERMINAL BUILDING Total Rental
Requirement is reasonably projected by the CORPORATION to vary by twenty
percent (20%) or more from the amounts set forth in the most recent Calculation of
TERMINAL BUILDING Rent (as provided in Exhibit B), the TERMINAL
BUILDING Total Rental Requirement and resulting rental amounts due from each
AIRLINE provided for in this Article 7 may, if deemed necessary by the MANAGER
following consultation with the SIGNATORY AIRLINES, be adjusted for the
balance of such year of the LEASE if the then existing rental amounts due from the
AIRLINES would result in an overpayment or underpayment of TERMINAL
BUILDING REVENUES or to ensure that sufficient total TERMINAL BUILDING
REVENUES will be generated during the FISCAL YEAR to meet the requirements
of the ANNUAL BUDGET.
7.7.2 The CORPORATION shall notify the SIGNATORY AIRLINES of its intent to make
such revision and adjustments and the effective date thereof which shall be no earlier
than thirty (30) days from the date of mailing. Such notice shall provide a revised
projection of the TERMINAL BUILDING rental amounts due from each AIRLINE
for the remainder of such LEASE year in sufficient detail to allow the SIGNATORY
AIRLINES to make informed comments thereon. The SIGNATORY AIRLINES
may submit written comments on such notice from the CORPORATION. The
CORPORATION shall give due consideration to all comments submitted in a timely
manner by the SIGNATORY AIRLINES. If requested, the CORPORATION shall
convene a meeting with the SIGNATORY AIRLINES to discuss such revisions and
adjustments.
Section 7.8 Most Favored Nations Clause and Other CORPORATION Covenants
7.8.1 Most Favored Nations Clause - The CORPORATION shall not enter into any lease,
contract or any other agreement with any other AIR TRANSPORTATION company
containing more favorable terms than this LEASE, or to grant any tenant engaged in
AIR TRANSPORTATION, rights or privileges with respect to the TERMINAL
BUILDING that are not accorded AIRLINE hereunder, unless the same rights, terms
and privileges are concurrently made available to AIRLINE or, unless another AIR
TRANSPORTATION company commits AIR TRANSPORTATION services to the
CORPORATION which are materially greater than the AIR TRANSPORTATION
services committed by AIRLINE to the CORPORATION under this LEASE.

7.8.3 CORPORATION shall operate the TERMINAL BUILDING in a manner so as to
produce revenues from concessionaires, tenants and other users of the TERMINAL
BUILDING in amounts which would be produced by a reasonably prudent operator
of an airport of substantially similar size, use and activity, and with due regard for the
interests of the public.
7.8.4 The CORPORATION shall not include the cost of any goods or services provided by
any governmental agency other than the CORPORATION as an expense in the
calculation of rentals and Other Charges payable by AIRLINE unless a direct charge
is paid, or an exchange of goods or services at fair market value is made, by
CORPORATION to the governmental agency providing such goods or services.
7.8.5 The CORPORATION shall apply all rentals, fees, charges, concession revenues and
any other amounts collected (including proceeds of insurance) solely to defray the
costs of operating, maintaining, improving or expanding the TERMINAL
BUILDING, except as may otherwise be required by federal law.
7.8.6 CORPORATION agrees to expend TERMINAL BUILDING REVENUES generated
from operations only for valid TERMINAL BUILDING purposes as prescribed by
federal statutory provisions governing the use of airport revenues.
7.8.7 The CORPORATION agrees that TERMINAL BUILDING REVENUES will not be
transferred to non -TERMINAL BUILDING facilities of the CORPORATION or any
other governmental entity except when transfers reflect the value of services actually
received or facilities actually used at the TERMINAL BUILDING or in cases
otherwise permitted by federal statutory provisions governing the use of airport
revenue.

ARTICLE 9
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES
Section 9.1 Minor Damage
If any part of AIRLINE PREMISES, or adjacent facilities directly and substantially affecting the
use of AIRLINE PREMISES, shall be partially damaged by fire or other casualty, but said
circumstances do not render AIRLINE PREMISES untenantable or unusable for the purpose
intended as reasonably determined by the CORPORATION, the same shall be repaired to usable
condition with due diligence by the CORPORATION as provided in Section 9.4.
Section 9.2 Substantial Damage
If any part of AIRLINE PREMISES, or adjacent facilities directly and substantially affecting the
use of AIRLINE PREMISES, shall be so extensively damaged by fire, or other casualty, as to
render any portion of said AIRLINE PREMISES untenantable but capable of being repaired, as
reasonably determined by the CORPORATION, the same shall be repaired to usable condition
with due diligence by the CORPORATION as provided in Section 9.4. In such case, the rentals
payable hereunder with respect to affected AIRLINE PREMISES shall be paid up to the time of
such damage and shall thereafter be abated ratably in the proportion that the part of the area
rendered untenantable or unusable for the purpose intended bears to total AIRLINE PREMISES
of the same category and area. Such abatement in rent will continue until such time as such
affected AIRLINE PREMISES shall be restored adequately for AIRLINE's use. The
CORPORATION shall use its best efforts to provide alternate facilities to continue AIRLINE's
operation while repair, reconstruction or replacement is being completed, at a rental rate not to
exceed that provided in this LEASE for comparable space.
Section 9.3 Total Damage
9.3.1 If any part of AIRLINE PREMISES, or adjacent facilities directly and substantially
affecting the use of AIRLINE PREMISES, shall be damaged by fire or other casualty,
and shall be so extensively damaged as to render any portion of said AIRLINE
PREMISES incapable of being repaired, as reasonably determined by the
CORPORATION, the CORPORATION shall notify AIRLINE within a period of
sixty (60) days after the date of such damage of its decision whether to reconstruct or
replace said space. However, the CORPORATION shall be under no obligation to
replace or reconstruct such PREMISES. The rentals payable hereunder with respect
to affected AIRLINE PREMISES shall be paid up to the time of such damage and
thereafter shall cease until such time as reasonable and comparable replacement or
reconstructed space shall be available for use by AIRLINE.
36
9.3.2 In the event the CORPORATION elects to reconstruct or replace affected AIRLINE
PREMISES, the CORPORATION shall use its best efforts to provide alternate
facilities to continue AIRLINE's operation while repair, reconstruction or
replacement is being completed, at a rental rate not to exceed that provided in this
LEASE for comparable space. However, if such damaged space shall not have been
replaced or reconstructed, or the CORPORATION is not diligently pursuing such
replacement or reconstruction, within three (3) months after the date of such damage
or destruction, AIRLINE shall have the right, upon giving the CORPORATION thirty
(30) days advance written notice, to delete the affected AIRLINE PREMISES from
this LEASE, but this LEASE shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the
remainder of said AIRLINE PREMISES, unless such damaged or destroyed
PREMISES prevent AIRLINE from operating at the TERMINAL BUILDING.
9.3.3 In the event the CORPORATION elects not to reconstruct or replace affected
AIRLINE PREMISES, the CORPORATION shall meet and consult with AIRLINE
on ways to permanently provide AIRLINE with adequate replacement space for
affected AIRLINE PREMISES. AIRLINE shall have the right, upon giving the
CORPORATION thirty (30) days advance written notice, to delete the affected
AIRLINE PREMISES from this LEASE, but this LEASE shall remain in full force
and effect with respect to the remainder of said AIRLINE PREMISES, unless the loss
of such PREMISES prevents AIRLINE from operating at the TERMINAL
BUILDING.
Section 9.4 Scope of Restoration of PREMISES
9.4.1 The CORPORATION's obligations to repair, reconstruct or replace affected
PREMISES under the provisions of this Article 9 shall in any event be limited to
using due diligence and best efforts to restore affected AIRLINE PREMISES to
substantially the same condition that existed prior to any such damage and shall
further be limited to the extent of insurance proceeds available to the
CORPORATION for such repair, reconstruction or replacement. AIRLINE agrees
that if the CORPORATION elects to repair, reconstruct or replace affected
PREMISES as provided in this Article 9, then AIRLINE shall proceed with
reasonable diligence and at its sole cost and expense to repair, reconstruct or replace
its signs, fixtures, furnishings, equipment and other items provided or installed by
AIRLINE in or about AIRLINE PREMISES in a manner and in a condition at least
equal to that which existed prior to said damage or destruction. However, in the
event CORPORATION chooses not to replace space in kind, AIRLINE may delete
said space from its obligation.
37
lvw�
9.4.2 In lieu of the CORPORATION's repair, reconstruction or replacement of the affected
PREMISES, as provided in Section 9.4.1, if AIRLINE requests to perform said
function with respect to damage under Sections 9.1 and 9.2, the CORPORATION
may in its sole discretion, allow the AIRLINE to perform such work. AIRLINE shall
not be performing such work as an agent or contractor of the CORPORATION. The
CORPORATION shall reimburse AIRLINE for the cost of such work performed by
AIRLINE that was otherwise the obligation of the CORPORATION if prior to
performing such work, the CORPORATION and AIRLINE agree that such work is
the obligation of the CORPORATION to perform.
Section 9.5 Damage from AIRLINE Negligence or Willful Act
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 9, in the event that due to the negligence or willful
act of AIRLINE, its agents, servants or employees, or those under its control, AIRLINE
PREMISES shall be damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty or otherwise, there shall be no
abatement of rent during the restoration or replacement of said AIRLINE PREMISES and
AIRLINE shall have no option to delete the affected AIRLINE PREMISES from this LEASE
under the provisions of this Article 9. To the extent that the costs of repairs shall exceed the
amount of any insurance proceeds payable to the CORPORATION by reason of such damage or
destruction, AIRLINE shall pay the amount of such additional costs to the CORPORATION.

possession of the PREMISES and expel or remove AIRLINE and any
other person who may be occupying the PREMISES or any part thereof,
without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor, and

termination, whether through inability to relet the PREMISES on
satisfactory terms or otherwise.

or accept a surrender of the PREMISES shall be valid unless in writing

rental or other payments hereunder after the occurrence of an event of
default shall not be construed as a waiver of such default, unless the
CORPORATION so notifies AIRLINE in writing. Forbearance by the
CORPORATION to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided
upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a
waiver of such default or of the CORPORATION's right to enforce any
such remedies with respect to such default or any subsequent default. If,
on account of any breach or default by AIRLINE in AIRLINE's
obligations under the terms and conditions of this LEASE, it shall become
