Upon receipt of the proceeds derived from the sale of 2002 Bonds, the Issuer will cause said proceeds to be deposited in the Construction Fund. 
 (b) The Issuer agrees to authorize the issuance of Additional Bonds upon the terms and conditions provided herein and in the Indenture. Additional Bonds may be authorized for the purpose of financing Project Costs to the extent such costs
exceed the amount in the Construction Fund, such excess to be evidenced by a certificate signed by the Authorized Lessee Representative, subject to the limitations contained in Section 208 of the Indenture. If the Lessee is not in default
hereunder, the Issuer agrees, on request of the Lessee, from time to time, to use its best efforts to issue Additional Bonds in such amounts, maturing on such dates, bearing such rate or rates of interest and redeemable at such times and prices as
may be specified by the Lessee and as shall be permitted within the limits and under the conditions specified above and in the Indenture; provided, that (i) the Lessee and the Issuer shall have entered into an amendment to this Lease or a
separate lease containing substantially the same terms as this Lease to provide for the lease of any additional properties not constituting Excluded Property to the Lessee and to include a description of such additional properties, to provide for
rental payments to be paid by the Lessee to the Issuer as shall be sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Additional Bonds as provided to be paid in the supplemental bond resolution with respect to such
Additional Bonds, and to extend the Lease Term or in the case of a separate lease, provide for a lease term of at least ten years if the maturity of any Additional Bonds would occur after the expiration of the Lease Term, and (ii) the Issuer
shall have otherwise complied with the provisions of the Indenture with respect to the issuance of such Additional Bonds. Any amendment to this Lease entered into pursuant to clause (i) above will provide that any such additional properties
shall be included under this Lease upon terms equivalent to those pertaining to the Project. The Issuer will deposit the proceeds from the sale of Additional Bonds in the same manner as provided in paragraph (a) above. 
 (c) Upon request of the Lessee, the Issuer agrees to authorize and use its best efforts to issue, and if issued to deposit the proceeds from the sale of,
any refunding bonds for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the outstanding Bonds.

 Section 4.3 Disbursements from the Construction Fund. In the Indenture, the Issuer has
authorized and directed the Trustee that moneys in the Construction Fund shall be used to pay the Project Costs, or to reimburse the Issuer or the Lessee for any Project Costs paid or incurred by the Issuer or the Lessee either before or after
execution of this Lease and delivery of the 2002 Bonds. Such payments shall be made by the Trustee upon receipt of a requisition, signed by the Authorized Lessee Representative, stating with respect to each payment to be made: 
 (1) the requisition number; 
 (2) if other than the Lessee, the name and address of the person to whom payment is due; 
 (3) the amount to be paid; and 
 (4) that each obligation mentioned therein constitutes a Project Cost and has not
been the basis of any previous requisition. 
 In the Indenture, the Issuer has authorized and directed that all moneys remaining in the
Construction Fund (including moneys earned pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.8 hereof) upon receipt by the Trustee of the Construction Completion Certificate described in Section 4.5(b) hereof, shall at the written direction of the
Lessee, be (i) used by the Issuer for the purchase of Bonds for the purpose of cancellation; or (ii) paid into the Bond Fund; or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii) as is provided in such direction, provided that amounts
approved by the Authorized Lessee Representative shall be retained in the Construction Fund (whether or not then on deposit or to be deposited pursuant to a subsequent requisition) for payment of Project Costs not then due and payable. Any balance
remaining of such retained funds after full payment of all such Project Costs shall be used by the Trustee as directed by the Lessee in the manner specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph. 
 In making any such payment from the Construction Fund, the Trustee may rely on any such requisitions and certificates delivered to it pursuant to this
Section and the Trustee shall be relieved of all liability with respect to making such payments in accordance with such requisitions and certificates without inspection of the Project or any other investigation. 
 Section 4.4 Obligation of the Parties to Cooperate in Furnishing Documents to Trustee. The Issuer and the Lessee agree to cooperate with each
other in furnishing to the Trustee the documents referred to in Section 4.3 hereof that are required to effect payments out of the Construction Fund, and to cause such requisitions to be directed to the Trustee as may be necessary to effect
payments out of the Construction Fund in accordance with Section 4.3 hereof. 
 Section 4.5 Establishment of Completion Date and
Date of Beneficial Occupancy. The Completion Date shall be evidenced to the Trustee by a certificate executed by the Authorized Lessee Representative (the “Construction Completion Certificate”) stating that as of a date certain
(the “Completion Date”) the Project Construction was completed and that the Issuer and/or the Lessee received all consents, approvals or other licenses for applicable Governmental Authorities required for the use, occupancy and
operation of the Project. The Construction Completion Certificate shall be delivered within ten (10) days of the Completion Date as determined by the Lessee. 
  

 11 








 The Date of Beneficial Occupancy shall be evidenced to the Trustee by a certificate signed by the
Authorized Lessee Representative (the “Beneficial Occupancy Certificate”) stating that the Date of Beneficial Occupancy has occurred and specifying said date. The “Date of Beneficial Occupancy” shall mean the
earliest to occur of (i) the Completion Date or (ii) the day on which commercial operations at the Project have begun. The Beneficial Occupancy Certificate shall be delivered within ten (10) days of the date of the occurrence of the
Date of Beneficial Occupancy. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Construction Completion Certificate and the Beneficial Occupancy
Certificate shall state that they are given without prejudice to any rights of the Issuer or the Lessee against third parties which exist on the date of such certificate or which may subsequently come into being. The Issuer and the Lessee agree to
cooperate in causing such certificates to be furnished to the Trustee. 
 Section 4.6 Lessee Required to Pay Construction and
Equipment Costs in Event Construction Fund Insufficient. In the event the moneys in the Construction Fund available for payment of the Project Costs should not be sufficient to pay such costs in full and the Lessee has not requested that the
Issuer issue Additional Bonds for such purpose, the Lessee agrees to complete the Project Construction and to pay all that portion of the Project Costs as may be in excess of the moneys available therefor or in the Construction Fund by making
payments directly to the construction contractor or contractors or the suppliers of materials and equipment as the same shall become due or by paying into the Construction Fund the moneys necessary to complete the Project in which case the Issuer
will proceed to complete the Project Construction and the cost thereof will be paid from the Construction Fund. The Issuer does not make any warranty, either express or implied, that the moneys which will be paid into the Construction Fund and
which, under the provisions of this Lease, will be available for payment of the Project Costs will be sufficient to pay all such Project Costs. The Lessee agrees that if, after exhaustion of the moneys in the Construction Fund, the Lessee should pay
any portion of the Project Costs pursuant to the provisions of this Section, it shall not be entitled to any reimbursement therefor from the Issuer or from the Trustee or from the holders of any of the Bonds (except to the extent that Additional
Bonds may be issued to pay such excess Project Costs) nor shall it be entitled to any diminution of the rents payable under Section 5.3 hereof. All Land, Improvements and Equipment acquired with funds provided by the Lessee as provided herein
shall be titled in the name of the Issuer and subject to the terms of this Lease. 
 Section 4.7 Issuer to Pursue Remedies Against
Contractors and Subcontractors and Their Sureties. In the event of any default of any supplier, contractor or subcontractor under any Construction Contract entered into in connection with the Project Construction or in the event of breach of
warranty with respect to any material, workmanship or performance guaranty, the Issuer, at the request and sole cost of the Lessee, will promptly proceed either separately or in conjunction with others, to exhaust the remedies of the Issuer against
any defaulting supplier, contractor or subcontractor and against any surety thereof or for the performance of any contract made in connection with the Project. Unless the Lessee shall request the Issuer to proceed in another manner, the Issuer shall
proceed, in connection with any such default, only through the Lessee as agent for the Issuer; and the Lessee, as such agent and in the name of the Issuer, shall prosecute, defend or settle any action or proceeding or take any other action involving
any such supplier, contractor, subcontractor or surety which the Lessee deems 

  

 12 








 
reasonably necessary. Any amounts recovered by way of damages, refunds, adjustments or otherwise in connection with the foregoing prior to the Completion
Date shall be paid into the Construction Fund and after the Completion Date shall be applied in the manner specified in Section 4.3 hereof. 
 Section 4.8 Investment of Construction Fund and Bond Fund Moneys Permitted. Any moneys held as a part of the Construction Fund or the Bond Fund shall be invested or reinvested by the Trustee upon the written request and
direction of the Lessee in only those investments permitted under the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the Bond Purchase Agreement, payment of the Bonds may be made in installments
commencing on the Closing Date.

 Section 5.2 Delivery and Acceptance of Possession. The Issuer agrees to deliver to the Lessee sole and exclusive possession of
the Project (subject to the right of the Issuer or the Trustee to enter thereon for inspection purposes and to the other provisions of Section 8.2 hereof) on the Date of Beneficial Occupancy and the Lessee agrees to accept possession of the
Project upon such delivery; provided, however, that the Lessee shall be permitted to enter the Project prior to the Date of Beneficial Occupancy for the purpose of fulfilling its duties and obligations as agent for the Issuer in connection with the
Project Construction as provided in Article TV hereof and to install and maintain its own equipment. 
 Section 5.3 Rents and Other
Amounts Payable. 
 (a) The Lessee shall make payments to the Trustee during the Agreement Term for the account of the Issuer in such
amounts and at such times as are sufficient to pay (i) the principal of and premium, if any, on the Bonds (whether due and payable at maturity or upon the redemption (in whole or in part) or acceleration of the Bonds) and (ii) accrued
interest on the Bonds. In any event each rental payment under this Section shall be sufficient to pay the total amount of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest payable on the Bonds and if at any time 

  

 13 








 
the balance in the Bond Fund is insufficient to make required payments of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Bonds on such date, the
Lessee shall forthwith pay any such deficiency. 
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any amount at any time deposited in the
Bond Fund shall be credited against the next succeeding payment and shall reduce the payment to be made by the Lessee to the extent such amount is in excess of the amount required for payment of the principal of and premium, if any, on Bonds
theretofore called for redemption and past due interest in all cases where such Bonds have not been presented for payment; and further, if the amount held by the Trustee in the Bond Fund should be sufficient to pay at the times required the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds then remaining unpaid, the Lessee shall not be obligated to make any further payments under the provisions of this Section. 
 The payments due and payable during the Extended Lease Term (as defined in Section 5.1 hereof) shall be $1.00 per year. 
 (b) The Lessee agrees to pay to the Trustee (to the extent not paid from the Construction Fund) until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on
the Bonds shall have been fully paid, its reasonable and necessary fees, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) as provided in the Indenture, as and when the same become due. In addition, the Lessee agrees to pay
the reasonable and necessary fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee appointed with the consent of the Lessee in accordance with the Indenture. The Lessee may, without creating a default hereunder, withhold any payment required to be made under
this subsection (b) in order to contest in good faith the validity, necessity or reasonableness of any such fees, charges or expenses. 
 (c) The Lessee agrees to pay the reasonable and necessary expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) not otherwise provided for in this Lease, which may be incurred by the Issuer, or for which the Issuer may in any way become
liable, as a result of issuing any of the Bonds, the Project Construction and the leasing of the Project to the Lessee, or being a party to this Lease or the Indenture, or issuing the Bonds. 
 (d) In the event the Lessee should fail to make any of the payments required in this Section, the item or installment so in default shall continue as an
obligation of the Lessee until the amount in default shall have been fully paid, and the Lessee agrees to pay the same with interest thereon at the rate of interest borne by the Bonds until paid. The provisions of this Section shall be subject to
the provisions of Section 9.7 hereof. 
 Section 5.4 Place of Payments. The payments provided for in Section 5.3(a)
hereof shall either be paid directly to the Trustee for the account of the Issuer and deposited in the Bond Fund or be paid directly to the holder or holders of Bonds in accordance with a home office payment agreement entered into pursuant to

 Section 5.5 Obligations of Lessee Hereunder Unconditional. Subject to the provisions of
Section 9.7 hereof, the obligations of the Lessee to make the payments required in Section 5.3(a) hereof shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to diminution by set-off, counterclaim, abatement or otherwise. Until
such time as the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds shall have been fully paid or provision for the payment thereof shall have been made in accordance with the Indenture, the Lessee (i) will not suspend or discontinue any
payments provided for in Section 5.3(a) hereof except to the extent the same have been prepaid, and (ii) except as provided in Sections 11.1 and 11.5 hereof, will not terminate the Agreement Term for any cause, including, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, failure of the Issuer to complete the Project Construction, failure of the Issuer’s title to the Project or any part thereof, any acts or circumstances that may constitute failure of consideration, eviction or
constructive eviction, destruction of or damage to the Project, commercial frustration of purpose, any change in the tax or other laws of the United States of America or of the State of Georgia or any political subdivision of either thereof or any
failure of the Issuer to perform and observe any agreement, whether express or implied, or any duty, liability or obligation arising out of or connected with this Lease. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to release the Issuer from
the performance of any of the agreements on its part herein contained; and in the event the Issuer should fail to perform any such agreement on its part, the Lessee may institute such action against the Issuer as the Lessee may deem necessary to
compel performance or recover its damages for nonperformance so long as such action shall not do violence to the agreements on the part of the Lessee contained in the preceding sentence. The Lessee may, however, at its own cost and expenses and in
its own name or in the name of the Issuer, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding or take any other action involving third persons which the Lessee deems reasonably necessary in order to insure the acquisition, construction and equipping of
the Project or to secure or protect its right of possession, occupancy and use hereunder, and in such event the Issuer hereby agrees to cooperate fully with the Lessee and to take all action necessary to effect the substitution of the Lessee for the
Issuer in any such action or proceeding if the Lessee shall so request. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 MAINTENANCE, MODIFICATIONS, 
 TAXES
AND INSURANCE 
 Section 6.1 Maintenance and Modifications of Project by Lessee. 
 (a) The Lessee agrees that during the Lease Term it will at its own expense (i) keep the Project in as reasonably safe condition as its operations
shall permit and (ii) keep the Improvements and the Equipment and all other facilities and improvements forming a part of the Project in reasonably good repair and in good operating condition. 
 (b) The Lessee may from time to time, in its sole discretion and at its own expense, make any additions, modifications or improvements to the Project,
including (i) the acquisition of additional real property or any interests therein, (ii) the acquisition, construction and equipping of additional buildings, utilities, parking facilities and other improvements on or 

  

 15 








 
under the Land, and (iii) the installation of additional machinery, equipment and other tangible personal property in the Project, on the Land or in any
additional buildings and improvements (collectively, the “Additions”); provided, however, no such Additions shall materially impair the effective use of the Project or result in any part of the Project not being a
“project” within the meaning of the Act. The Lessee shall furnish to the Issuer the plans for any such Additions. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses in connection with the design, acquisition, construction or
installation of any such Additions. 
 At any time and from time to time, the Lessee may elect by giving notice thereof to the Issuer to
include any such Additions or portions thereof as a part of the Project (collectively, herein called “Project Improvements”); provided that to the extent any such Project Improvements include personal property, such notice shall be
accompanied by a bill of sale, assignment or other instrument transferring title thereof to the Issuer. No transfer instrument shall be required in the case of the Project Improvements which constitute real property and upon the giving of such
notice to the Issuer such Project Improvements shall be deemed a part of the Project and titled in the name of the Issuer. If no such notice is given by the Lessee to the Issuer, such Additions shall be deemed Excluded Property. 
 Any such Additions constituting Excluded Property, may be removed by the Lessee at any time and from time to time; provided that any damage to the
Project occasioned by such removal shall be repaired by the Lessee at its own expense. All Excluded Property, whether or not installed in the Project or located on or adjacent to the Land, shall remain the sole property of the owner thereof in which
the Issuer shall not have any interest, and shall not be subject to the provisions of this Lease or the Indenture. The Issuer agrees to execute and deliver at the request of the Lessee or any other Person having an interest in the Project or any
part thereof any landlord’s waivers and other releases in connection with the acquisition, construction and installation of such Excluded Property. 
 Nothing contained in the preceding provisions of this Section 6.1(b) shall prevent the Lessee from granting any deeds to secure debt, mortgages, security agreements or other similar liens or encumbrances or
entering into any sale/leaseback transactions with respect to any Additions (whether in the form of a conditional sale, financing lease or otherwise) and the Issuer agrees to execute and deliver at the request of the Lessee any instruments, waivers,
releases, financing statements or other documents necessary or appropriate to confirm any such grant. These provisions shall be in addition to the rights of the Lessee set forth in Sections 8.5 and 8.7 hereof. 
 (c) Subject to the Lessee’s usual safety and security requirements of persons located on the Land, the Issuer, the Trustee and their respective duly
authorized agents shall have the right, upon giving the Lessee at least 48 hours prior written notice, to enter upon any part of the Land during normal daylight business hours, and examine and inspect the same as may be reasonably necessary for the
purpose of determining whether the Lessee is in compliance with its obligations under this Section 6.1; provided that no such inspection shall interfere with the business operations at the Project. 
 Section 6.2 Removal of Equipment. The Issuer shall not be under any obligation to renew, repair or replace any inadequate, obsolete, worn
out, unsuitable, undesirable 
  

 16 








 
or unnecessary Equipment. In any instance where the Lessee in its sole discretion determines that any items of Equipment have become inadequate, obsolete,
worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary, the Lessee may remove such items of Equipment and (on behalf of the Issuer), sell, trade-in, exchange or otherwise dispose of them (as a whole or in part) and retain all proceeds or consideration
received in connection therewith without any responsibility or accountability to the Issuer therefor, provided that in the event that any such removal shall result in the Project not being deemed to constitute a “project” under the Act,
the Lessee shall substitute (either by direct payment of the costs thereof or by advancing to the Issuer the funds necessary therefor) and install other machinery or equipment or otherwise take such additional actions which would cause the Project
to constitute a “project” under the Act. 
 The removal from the Project of any portion of the Equipment pursuant to the provisions
of this Section shall not entitle the Lessee to any abatement or diminution in amount of the rents payable under Section 5.3 hereof. 
 The Lessee will not remove or permit the removal of any of the Equipment except in accordance with the provisions of this Section. At the request of the Lessee, the Issuer shall execute such bills of sale, releases or other documents
reasonably required by the Lessee in order to accomplish any sale, trade-in, exchange or other disposition of Equipment pursuant to this Section. 
 Section 6.3 Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges. 
 (a) The Issuer and the Lessee acknowledge that
under present law no part of the Project owned by the Issuer will be subject to ad valorem taxation by the State of Georgia or by any political or taxing subdivision thereof, and that under present law the income and profits (if any) of the Issuer
from the Project are not subject to either Federal or Georgia taxation. The Issuer further acknowledges that it has entered into this Lease to enable the Lessee to enjoy a reduction in ad valorem taxation afforded by the reduced value of
Lessee’s interest in the Project, as set forth in that certain Memorandum of Agreement Regarding Lease Structure and Valuation of Leasehold Interest among the Issuer, the Lessee and the Fulton County Board of Tax Assessors (the
“Property Tax Memorandum”). Pursuant to the Property Tax Memorandum, the Issuer agrees that the Lessee will not be required to make any payments in lieu of taxes or other similar payments, provided that the Lessee will pay, as the
same respectively become lawfully due and payable, (i) all ad valorem taxes assessed with respect to the Lessee’s leasehold interest in the Project during the Lease Term; (ii) all taxes and governmental charges of any kind whatsoever
upon or with respect to the Project or any machinery, equipment or other property installed or brought by the Lessee therein or thereon (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any taxes levied upon or with respect to the income
or profits of the Issuer from the Project which, if not paid, will become a lien on the Project or a charge on the revenues and receipts therefrom prior to or on a parity with the lien or charge of the Indenture; (iii) all utility and other
charges incurred in the operation, maintenance, use, occupancy and upkeep of the Project; and (iv) all assessments and charges lawfully made by any governmental body for public improvements that may be secured by lien on the Project; provided,
that with respect to special assessments or other governmental charges that may lawfully be paid in installments over a period of years, the Lessee shall be obligated to pay only such installments as are required to be paid during the Lease Term.

  

 17 








 (b) It is the understanding and intent of the parties that the Issuer’s acquisition of title to the
Project, including but not limited to the Equipment, shall be solely for the purpose of leasing the same to the Lessee pursuant to the terms hereof. It is further the understanding and intent of the parties that, for purposes of the sales and use
taxes imposed by Article 8 of Title 48 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, the conveyance to the Issuer of title to the Project or any portion thereof by the Lessee as contemplated herein shall not be a taxable transaction for sales and use
tax purposes in accordance with the holding of Footpress Corporation v. Strickland, 242 Ga. 686, 251 S.E.2d 278 (1978). 
 (c) The Lessee
may, at its own expense and in its own name and behalf or in the name and behalf of the Issuer, in good faith contest any such taxes, assessments and other charges and, in the event of any such contest, may permit the taxes, assessments or other
charges so contested to remain unpaid during the period of such contest and any appeal therefrom. The Issuer will cooperate fully with the Lessee in any such contest. 
 Section 6.4 Insurance and Indemnity. 
 (a) During the Project Construction and throughout the
Agreement Term, the Lessee shall, in its own name or in the name of the Issuer, keep the Project continuously insured against such risks and in such amounts as are customarily insured against by the Lessee and in such amounts as is consistent with
the Lessee’s customary practices, paying as the same become due all premiums in respect thereto; provided that the Lessee may satisfy the requirements of this Section through self-insurance in accordance with its customary practices at other
locations. Any policies of insurance so obtained by the Lessee shall include the Issuer as a named insured, as its interest may appear, if such endorsement is obtainable and customary. The Lessee may, in its own name or in the name of the Issuer,
prosecute or defend any action or proceeding, or take any other action involving claims against the carrier of the insurance required hereby, including the settlement of such claims, which the Lessee deems necessary or desirable under the
circumstances. 
 (b) The Lessee shall also indemnify and defend the Issuer and the Trustee, and their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents (collectively the “Indemnified Parties” or individually an “Indemnified Party”), and hold the same harmless against all liabilities, loses, suits, actions, damages, penalties, costs and expenses
(collectively, “Indemnified Losses”) incurred in connection with or with respect to (i) the issuance or sale of the Bonds, (ii) the Project Construction, or (iii) the operation of the Project by the Lessee; provided,
however, that the indemnification required by this Section 6.4 shall not include indemnification for Indemnified Losses resulting directly or indirectly from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party; and
provided, further, that the indemnity provided in this Section shall be effective only to the extent of any Indemnified Loss in excess of the Net Proceeds of any insurance carried with respect to the loss sustained. Unless the Lessee shall request
an Indemnified Party to proceed in another manner, an Indemnified Party shall proceed in connection with any claim against which indemnification is provided hereunder, only through the Lessee as agent for such Indemnified Party unless there is a
conflict; and the Lessee, as such agent and in the name of such Indemnified Party, shall defend or settle any such claim, action or proceeding or take any other action with respect thereto as the Lessee shall deem reasonably necessary and
appropriate. 
  

 18 








 (c) The provisions of this Section 6.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Section 6.5 Advances by Issuer or Trustee. In the event the Lessee
shall (i) fail to maintain the insurance coverage required by Section 6.4 hereof or (ii) fail to correct or repair any hazardous condition at the Project which poses an immediate threat of injury to or death of any Person, and such
failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Issuer or the Trustee demanding that such failure be remedied and indicating the intent of such party to cure such failure at the expense of the Lessee, the
Issuer or the Trustee may (but unless satisfactorily indemnified shall be under no obligation to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same or take appropriate actions to correct such hazardous condition; and all
amounts so advanced therefor, by the Issuer or the Trustee shall become an additional obligation of the Lessee to said party, which amounts, together with interest thereon at the rate of interest borne by the Bonds from the date thereof, the Lessee
agrees to pay.

receipt by the Lessee of at least two days’ prior written notice from the Issuer, the Issuer and its duly authorized agents who are reasonably acceptable to the Lessee shall have the right at all reasonable times during business hours, subject
to the Lessee’s usual safety and security requirements, to enter upon the Land and to examine and inspect the Project without interference or prejudice to the Lessee’s operations. 
 Section 8.3 Lessee to Maintain its Existence; Conditions Under Which Exceptions Permitted. The Lessee agrees that during the Agreement Term
it will maintain its existence, will not dissolve or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and will not consolidate with or merge into another Person or permit one or more other Persons to consolidate with or merge into it;
provided, that the Lessee may, without violating the agreement contained in this Section, consolidate with or merge into another Person or permit one or more other Persons to consolidate with or merge into it, or transfer all or substantially all of
its assets to another Person, but only on condition that the Person resulting from or surviving such merger (if other than the Lessee) or consolidation or the Person to which such transfer is made (i) shall expressly assume and agree in writing
to perform all of the Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, and (ii) if an entity, shall be organized and existing under the laws of one of the states of the United States of America or the District of Columbia or, if not, shall appoint
and maintain a local agent for service of process in the State of Georgia. 
 Section 8.4 Qualification in Georgia. The Lessee
covenants that it is and throughout the Agreement Term it will continue to be either organized or qualified to do business under the laws of the State of Georgia. 
 Section 8.5 Granting of Easements and Leasehold Mortgages. 
 (a) The Lessee may at any time or
times cause to be granted easements, licenses, rights-of-way (temporary or perpetual and including the dedication of public highways) and other rights or privileges in the nature of casements with respect to any property included in the Project, or
the Lessee may cause to be released existing casements, licenses, rights-of-way and other rights or privileges in the nature of easements, held with respect to any property included in the Project with or without consideration and the Issuer agrees
that at the request of the Lessee it shall execute and deliver any instrument necessary or appropriate to confirm and grant or release any such easements, license, right-of-way or other right or privilege. 
 (b) The Lessee shall at all times and from time to time have the right to encumber all of the Lessee’s right, title and interest under this Lease by
mortgage, deed to secure debt, security agreement, assignment or other security instrument, including, without limitation, assignment of the rents, issues and profits from the Project, as security for any debt of the Lessee, (such mortgage, deed to
secure debt or other instrument(s) being hereinafter referred to as a “Leasehold Mortgage”, and the holder(s) from time to time of such Leasehold Mortgage being hereinafter referred to as a “Leasehold Mortgagee”).

  

 21 








 In the event that a Leasehold Mortgagee shall provide the Issuer and the Trustee with written notice of
its name and address (a “Notice of Leasehold Mortgage”), then, following receipt by the Issuer of such Notice of Leasehold Mortgage and for so long as such Leasehold Mortgage shall remain unsatisfied of record or until written
notice of satisfaction of such Leasehold Mortgage is given by the Leasehold Mortgagee to the Issuer, the provisions of this Section 8.5 shall apply to each such Leasehold Mortgagee. Upon written request of such Leasehold Mortgagee, the Issuer
shall acknowledge receipt of a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage by an instrument in recordable form provided to the Issuer and the Trustee by the Leasehold Mortgagee. In the event of any assignment of a Leasehold Mortgage or in the event of a change of
address of a Leasehold Mortgagee or of an assignee of such Leasehold Mortgagee written notice of such new name and/or address shall be promptly provided to the Issuer. 
 No cancellation, rejection, surrender, amendment or modification (other than by expiration of the Lease Term) of this Lease or release of the Lessee hereunder shall be effective as to any Leasehold Mortgagee (provided
that such Leasehold Mortgagee has given a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage) unless consented to in writing by such Leasehold Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no rejection of this Lease by Lessee or by a trustee in bankruptcy
for the Lessee shall be effective as to any Leasehold Mortgagee (provided that such Leasehold Mortgagee has given a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage) unless consented to in writing by such Leasehold Mortgagee. 
 The Issuer and the Trustee shall, on serving the Lessee with any notice of any default under this Lease, simultaneously serve a copy of such notice upon
each Leasehold Mortgagee (provided that such Leasehold Mortgagee has given a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage). No such notice by the Issuer to the Lessee shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until a copy thereof has been so provided to
every Leasehold Mortgagee in the manner specified herein (provided that such Leasehold Mortgagee has given a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage). From and after the date such notice has been given to a Leasehold Mortgagee, each such Leasehold Mortgagee
shall have the same period, after its receipt of such notice, for remedying any default specified in such notice or causing the same to be remedied as is given to the Lessee after the giving of such notice to the Lessee to remedy, commence remedying
or cause to be remedied the defaults specified in any such notice, but Leasehold Mortgagee shall in no manner be obligated to do so. The Issuer and the Trustee shall accept such cure by or at the instigation of the Leasehold Mortgagee as if the same
had been performed by the Lessee. The Lessee hereby authorizes each Leasehold Mortgagee to take any such action that such Leasehold Mortgagee deems necessary to cure any such default and does hereby authorize entry upon the Project by each such
Leasehold Mortgagee for the purpose of curing such defaults. 
 (c) In the event that the Issuer or the Trustee shall elect to terminate this
Lease by reason of any default of the Lessee under Article X, such Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right, which right shall be exercised, if at all, within fifteen (15) days after such Leasehold Mortgagee is notified of the Issuer’s
election to terminate the Lease, to postpone and extend the specified date for the termination of this Lease as fixed by the Issuer in its notice of termination for a period of not more than six (6) months, provided that such Leasehold
Mortgagee shall, during such six (6) month period, (A) pay or cause to be paid any Annual Rental and other payments and charges as the same become due and continue its good faith efforts to perform all of the Lessee’s other
obligations under this Lease, excepting (i) obligations of the Lessee to 

  

 22 








 
satisfy or otherwise discharge any lien, charge or encumbrance against Lessee’s interest in this Lease or the Project provided that such lien, charge or
encumbrance is junior in priority to the lien of the mortgage held by such Leasehold Mortgagee and does not effect the Issuer’s fee simple interest in the Project, and (ii) past non-monetary obligations then in default and not reasonably
susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee, and (B) if not enjoined or stayed, take steps to acquire or sell the Lessee’s interest in this Lease by foreclosure of the Leasehold Mortgage or other appropriate means and prosecute
the same to completion with due diligence. 
 If at the end of such six (6) month period such Leasehold Mortgagee is complying with the
immediately preceding paragraph and such Leasehold Mortgagee is prohibited by any process or injunction issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or by reason of any action in any court of competent jurisdiction from commencing or prosecuting
foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, this Lease shall not then terminate, and the time for completion by such Leasehold Mortgagee of its proceedings shall continue so long as such Leasehold Mortgagee is enjoined or
stayed and thereafter for so long as such Leasehold Mortgagee proceeds in good faith and with due diligence to complete steps to acquire or sell the Lessee’s interest in this Lease by foreclosure of the Leasehold Mortgage or by other
appropriate means. Nothing in this paragraph, however, shall be construed to extend this Lease beyond the original Lease Term, nor to require a Leasehold Mortgagee to continue foreclosure proceedings after a default has been cured. In the event that
such default shall be cured and the Leasehold Mortgagee shall discontinue such foreclosure proceedings, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if the Lessee had not defaulted under this Lease. 
 In the event that a Leasehold Mortgagee complies with this subsection 8.5(c) and Leasehold Mortgagee acquires the Lessee’s right title and interest
herein by foreclosure or otherwise, then, upon the acquisition of the Lessee’s right, title and interest herein by such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee, or any other purchaser or assignee at a foreclosure sale or otherwise, this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect as if the Lessee had not defaulted under this Lease. 
 The granting of a Leasehold Mortgage shall not be
deemed to constitute an assignment or transfer of this Lease or of the leasehold estate hereby created, and any conveyance of the leasehold estate created hereby from Lessee to a Leasehold Mortgagee by foreclosure or otherwise, or from Leasehold
Mortgagee as attorney-in-fact of the Lessee to a purchaser at a foreclosure sale, shall not be deemed to constitute an assignment or transfer of this Lease or of the leasehold estate hereby created requiring the assumption of the obligations of the
Lessee hereunder, but such purchaser or assignee of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created shall be deemed to have agreed to perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions on the part of the Lessee to be performed hereunder from
and after the date of such purchase and assignment. Upon such conveyance, the Issuer and the Trustee shall recognize such Leasehold Mortgagee, or any other purchaser or assignee, as the Lessee hereunder. From and after the date of such sale or
assignment, the holder of any Leasehold Mortgage then existing or thereafter placed on the leasehold estate hereby created shall be considered a Leasehold Mortgagee as contemplated by this Lease, and the Leasehold Mortgagee thereunder shall be
entitled to receive the benefit of any and all provisions of this Lease intended for the benefit of a Leasehold Mortgagee, subject to the obligations and duties of the Leasehold Mortgagee under this Lease. 
  

 23 








 (d) In the event that this Lease is terminated as a result of any default by the Lessee hereunder or any
other cause (including, without limitation, a rejection of this Lease by the Lessee’s trustee in bankruptcy pursuant to 1 1 U.S.C. §365 or any equivalent provision of law), the Issuer shall provide each Leasehold Mortgagee (provided that
such Leasehold Mortgagee has given a Notice of Leasehold Mortgage) with written notice that the Lease has been terminated, together with a statement of all sums which would at that time be due under this Lease but for such termination, and of all
other defaults, if any, then known to the Issuer. The Issuer shall enter into a new lease (hereinafter referred to as the “New Lease”) of the Project with any Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee for the remainder of the term of this
Lease with the same covenants, conditions and agreements (including, without limitation, any and all options to extend or renew the term of this Lease, but excluding any requirements which have been satisfied by the Lessee prior to termination) as
are contained herein, subject only to (i) the conditions of title as the Project are subject to on the date of the execution of the original Lease, (ii) the right, if any, of any parties then in possession of any part of the Project by,
through or under Lessee, and (iii) the lien and encumbrance of any security instrument encumbering the Issuer’s fee simple interest in the Project upon receipt by the Issuer of a written request from such Leasehold Mortgagee on or before
sixty (60) days after the date of the Issuer’s notice of termination given pursuant to this subsection 8.5(d) and thereafter, the lessee under the New Lease shall have the same right, title and interest in and to the Project as the Lessee
had under this Lease. The obligations of the Issuer to enter into a New Lease shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee shall pay or cause to be paid to the Issuer at the time of the execution and delivery of such New Lease any and all sums which would at the time of execution and delivery thereof be due pursuant
to this Lease but for such termination and, in addition thereto, all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, which the Issuer shall have incurred by reason of the Lessee’s default of which Leasehold Mortgagee has been
notified and provided an opportunity to cure as required by this Lease, and such termination and the execution and delivery of the New Lease and which have not otherwise been received by the Issuer from the Lessee or any other party in interest
under the Lessee. Upon the execution of such New Lease, the Issuer shall allow the Lessee named therein as an offset against the sums otherwise due under this subsection 8.5(d), an amount equal to the net income derived by the Issuer from the
Project during the period from the date of termination of this Lease to the date of beginning of the term of such New Lease; and 
 (ii) Such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designees shall agree to cure any defaults of the Lessee under the terminated Lease of which the Issuer shall have notified Leasehold Mortgagee other than a default existing under subsections 10.01(c),
(d) or (e) hereof. 
 The new lessee under such New Lease shall, upon entering into such New Lease, acquire all of the right, title
and interest of the Lessee in and to any and all subleases of all or any part of the Project. 
  

 24 








 (e) So long as any Leasehold Mortgage is in existence, unless all Leasehold Mortgagees shall otherwise
expressly consent in writing, the fee title to the Project and the leasehold estate of the Lessee herein created shall not merge but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the acquisition of said fee title and said leasehold estate by
the Issuer or by the Lessee, or by a third party, by purchase or otherwise. 
 (f) Notices from the Issuer to the Leasehold Mortgagee shall
be mailed to the address furnished the Issuer pursuant to Notice of Leasehold Mortgage, and those from the Leasehold Mortgagee to the Issuer shall be mailed to the address designated pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.1 of this Lease.
Such notices, demands and requests shall be given in the manner described in Section 12.1 of this Lease and shall in all respects be governed by the provisions of that section. 
 (g) The Issuer shall, on request in connection with the financing or refinancing of the Lessee’s leasehold interest in the Project, execute,
acknowledge and deliver to a Leasehold Mortgagee an agreement, prepared at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, in form satisfactory to the Leasehold Mortgagee and the Issuer among the Issuer, the Lessee and the Leasehold Mortgagee, agreeing to
all the provisions of this Article XI. In addition, the Lessee shall reimburse the Issuer for any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses actually incurred in reviewing such agreement. 
 Section 8.6 Waiver of Landlord’s Lien. 
 (a) The Issuer hereby waives any right to distrain Excluded Property or any other personal property of the Lessee or any other Person which does not constitute a part of the Project, and any landlord’s lien or
similar lien upon Lessee and any landlord’s lien or similar lien upon Excluded Property, any other personal property of Lessee or any other Person and any alterations belonging to any Person, regardless of whether such lien is created by
statute or otherwise. The Issuer agrees, at the request of the Lessee, to execute a waiver of any landlord’s or similar lien for the benefit of any present or future holder of a security interest in, or lessor of, any of the Excluded Property,
any other personal property of any Person or any alterations belonging to any Person. 
 (b) The Issuer acknowledges, and agrees in the
future to acknowledge (in a written form reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee), to such Persons, at such times and for such purposes as the Lessee may reasonably request, that any property included in Excluded Property is not subject to this Lease
and do not constitute fixtures or improvements (regardless of whether or to what extent such Excluded Property is affixed to the Project), and that the Issuer has no right, title or interest in or to any Excluded Property. 
 Section 8.7 Granting of Mortgages by Issuer. Upon the written request of the Lessee and with the consent of the holders of not less than a
majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, the Issuer agrees to execute and deliver to any Person specified by the Lessee (a “Mortgagee”) with or without receipt of consideration and at all times and
from time to time, any mortgage, deed to secure debt, security agreement, assignment or other security instrument (herein called a “Mortgage”) encumbering the Issuer’s fee simple interest in the Project as security for any debt
of Lessee or any other Person. 
  

 25 








 In addition, upon the written request of the Lessee and with the consent of the holders of not less than
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, the Issuer and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such subordination agreements, consents or other documents or instruments in recordable form having the effect of
subordinating all or any part of their respective interests in the Project, this Lease and the Trust Estate to the interests of the holder or holders of any Mortgage. 
 Section 8.8 Estoppel Certificates. The Issuer and the Trustee shall, without charge, at any time and from time to time hereafter, within five (5) days after written request of the Lessee to do so,
certify by written instrument duly executed and acknowledged to any Leasehold Mortgagee, Mortgagee or purchaser, or proposed Leasehold Mortgagee, Mortgagee or proposed purchaser, or any other Person, firm or corporation specified in such request:
(i) as to whether this Lease has been supplemented or amended, and if so, the substance and manner of such supplement or amendment; (ii) as to the existence of any default hereunder known to the Issuer or the Trustee; (iii) as to the
existence of any offsets, counterclaims or defenses hereto on the part of the Lessee known to the Issuer or the Trustee; (iv) as to the commencement and expiration dates of the term of this Lease; and (v) as to any other matters as may be
reasonably so requested. Any such certificate may be relied upon by the Lessee and any other person, firm or corporation to whom the same may be addressed, and the contents of such certificate shall be binding on the Issuer and the Trustee as to the
Lessee and the addressee(s) of such certificate. 
 Section 8.9 Authorized Issuer Representative. Unless otherwise specified
herein, whenever under the provisions hereof the approval of the Issuer is required or the Issuer is required to take some action at the request of the Lessee, such approval may be made or such action may be taken by the Authorized Issuer
Representative; and the Lessee or the Trustee shall be authorized to act on any such approval or action and the Issuer shall have no complaint against the Lessee or the Trustee as a result of any such action taken. 
 Section 8.10 Authorized Lessee Representative. Unless otherwise specified herein, whenever under the provisions hereof the approval of the
Lessee is required or the Lessee is required to take some action at the request of the Issuer, such approval may be made or such action may be taken by the Authorized Lessee Representative; and the Issuer or the Trustee shall be authorized to act on
any such approval or action and the Lessee shall have no complaint against the Issuer or the Trustee as a result of any such action taken. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 ASSIGNMENT, SUBLEASING, PLEDGING 
 AND SELLING; REDEMPTION; 
 RENT PREPAYMENT AND ABATEMENT 
 Section 9.1 Assignment and Subleasing. This Lease may be assigned in whole or in part, and the Project may be subleased as a whole or in
part, by the Lessee without 

  

 26 








 
the necessity of obtaining the consent of the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person; provided, however, except as provided below no assignment (other than
pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof) or sublease shall relieve the Lessee from primary liability for any of its obligations hereunder. The Lessee agrees to cause any sublessee of the Project or any portion thereof to operate the Project as a
“project” as defined in the Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessee shall be relieved of liability hereunder in the event of an assignment of its interest in this Agreement if (i) the assignee expressly assumes and agrees in
writing to perform all of the Lessee’s obligations under this Lease and (ii) if the assignee is a foreign Person (i.e. a natural Person residing outside the United States of America or an entity not organized and existing under the laws of
one of the states of the United States of America or the District of Columbia), such Person shall appoint and maintain an agent for service of process in the State of Georgia. 
 Section 9.2 Assignment and Pledge of Revenues by Issuer. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer has assigned and pledged its interest in any
moneys receivable under this Lease, excluding payments pursuant to Sections 5.3(b), 5.3(c) and 6.4 hereof, as security for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, but such assignment and pledge shall be subject
and subordinate to this Lease. 
 Section 9.3 Restrictions on Sale of Project by Issuer. The Issuer agrees that, except as
otherwise expressly permitted under the terms of this Lease or the Indenture, it will not sell, assign, transfer or convey the Project during the Agreement Term and that it will not take any other action which may reasonably be construed as tending
to cause or induce the levy or assessment of additional ad valorem taxes on the Project. If the laws of Georgia at the time shall permit such action to be taken, nothing contained in this Section shall prevent the consolidation of the Issuer with,
or merger of the Issuer into, or transfer of the Project as an entirety to, any public corporation whose property and income are not subject to taxation and which has corporate authority to carry on the business of owning and leasing the Project;
provided, (i) that no such action shall be taken without the prior written consent of the Lessee, unless such action shall be required by law, and (ii) that upon any such consolidation, merger or transfer, the due and punctual payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the agreements and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by the Issuer, shall be expressly
assumed in writing by the corporation resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger or to which the Project shall be transferred as an entirety. 
 Section 9.4 Redemption of Bonds. The Issuer, at the request at any time of the Lessee and if the same are then redeemable, shall forthwith take all steps that may be necessary under the applicable
redemption provisions of the Indenture to effect redemption of all or part of the then outstanding Bonds, as may be specified by the Lessee, on the earliest redemption date on which such redemption may be made under such provisions or upon the date
set for the redemption by the Lessee pursuant to Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 11.1 hereof or Article III of the Indenture. 
 Section 9.5
Prepayment of Rents. There is expressly reserved to the Lessee the right, and the Lessee is authorized and permitted at any time it may choose, to prepay all or any part of the rents payable under Section 5.3(a) hereof, and the Issuer
agrees to accept such prepayment of rents when the same are tendered by the Lessee. All rents so prepaid shall be 

  

 27 








 
credited on the rental payments specified in Section 5.3(a) hereof, in the order of their due dates and at the election of the Lessee shall be used for
the redemption of outstanding Bonds in the manner and to the extent provided in the Indenture. 
 Section 9.6 Presentment of Bonds
for Cancellation. The Lessee expressly reserves the right and is authorized to present any principal amount of Bonds to the Issuer or the Trustee for cancellation. If all of the outstanding Bonds are presented to the Issuer or the Trustee for
cancellation, then, upon payment to the Issuer or the Trustee of any amounts payable to the Issuer due hereunder (other than the payments pursuant to Section 5.3(a) hereof), this Lease may be terminated upon notice given pursuant to
Section 11.5(b) hereof. If a portion of the Outstanding Bonds are presented to the Issuer or the Trustee for cancellation, the resulting reduction in the amount of Bonds outstanding shall entitle the Lessee to an appropriate reduction in the
payments required by Section 5.3(a) hereof on all succeeding rental payment dates. All Bonds so presented and canceled shall thereafter no longer be considered outstanding for any purpose of the Indenture or this Lease, including the
calculation of payments under Section 5.3(a) hereof. The Lessee may present Bonds for partial cancellation and reissuance of new Bonds for the portions not canceled, or for partial cancellation and notation thereof on such Bonds, such notation
to be made on the Table of Partial Redemptions on such Bonds in the same manner as provided for partial redemptions in Section 306 of the Indenture. 
 Section 9.7 Lessee Entitled to Certain Rent Abatements if Bonds Paid Prior to Maturity. If at any time the aggregate moneys in the Bond Fund shall be sufficient to retire in accordance with the provisions
of the Indenture all of the Bonds at the time outstanding, and to pay all fees and charges of the Trustee due or to become due through the date on which the last of the Bonds is retired under circumstances not resulting in termination of the Lease
Term, and if the Lessee is not at the time otherwise in default under Article VI hereof, the Lessee shall be entitled to use and occupy the Project from the date on which such aggregate moneys are in the hands of the Trustee to and including
midnight on the last day of the Lease Term, without the payment of the amounts required by Section 5.3(a) during that interval (but otherwise on the terms and conditions hereof). 
 Section 9.8 Reference to Bonds Ineffective After Bonds Paid. Upon payment in full of the Bonds (or provision for payment thereof having been
made in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture) and all fees and charges of the Trustee, all references in this Lease to the Bonds shall be ineffective and the holders of any of the Bonds shall not thereafter have any rights hereunder,
saving and excepting those that shall have theretofore vested. For purposes of this Lease, the Bonds shall be deemed fully paid when so paid according to the provisions of Article IX of the Indenture. 
 ARTICLE X 
 EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND
REMEDIES 
 Section 10.1 Events of Default Defined. The following shall be “events of default” under this Lease and
the terms “event of default” or “default” shall mean, whenever they are used in this Lease, any one or more of the following events: 
 (a) Failure by the Lessee to pay when due the portion of the payments required to be paid under Section 5.3(a) hereof representing payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, on the Bonds and the
continuance thereof for a period of ten (l0) calendar days after receipt by the Lessee of written notice of such failure; 
  

 28 








 (b) Failure by the Lessee to pay when due the portion of the payments required to be paid under
Section 5.3(a) hereof representing payments of interest on the Bonds, and the continuance thereof for a period of ten (10) calendar days after receipt by the Lessee of written notice of such failure; 
 (c) Failure by the Lessee to observe and perform any covenant, condition or agreement on its part to be observed or performed, other than as referred to
in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section, for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice specifying such failure and requesting that it be remedied, given to the Lessee by the Issuer, unless the Issuer shall agree in writing
to an extension of such time prior to its expiration; provided, however, if the failure stated in such notice cannot practically be corrected within the applicable period, it shall not be an event of default if the Lessee initiates appropriate
corrective measures during such period and such measures are thereafter diligently pursued by the Lessee; 
 (d) A proceeding or case shall
be commenced, without the application or consent of the Lessee in any court of competent jurisdiction seeking (i) liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding-up or composition or adjustment of debts of Lessee, (ii) the appointment of
a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator or the like of the Lessee or of all or any substantial part of its assets, or (iii) similar relief under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up or composition or
adjustment of debts, and such proceeding or cause shall continue undismissed, or an order, judgment, or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered and shall continue in effect for a period of ninety (90) days; or an
order for relief against the Lessee shall be entered against the Lessee in an involuntary case under the United States Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect) or other applicable law and shall continue in effect for a period of ninety
(90) days; or 
 (e) The Lessee shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due or shall file a
petition in voluntary bankruptcy or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or substantially all of its property, or shall commence a voluntary case
under the United States Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), or shall file in any court of competent jurisdiction a petition seeking to take advantage of any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up or
composition or adjustment of debts, or shall fail to controvert in a timely or appropriate manner, or acquiesce in writing to, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case under such United States Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law.

 The term “liquidation, reorganization or dissolution of the Lessee” as used in this subsection, shall not be construed to
include the cessation of the existence of the Lessee resulting from a merger or consolidation of the Lessee into or with another Person or a dissolution or liquidation of the Lessee following a transfer of all or substantially all of its assets as
an entirety, under the conditions permitting such actions contained in Section 8.3 hereof. 
  

 29 








 The foregoing provisions of this Section are subject to the following limitations: if by reason of a
Force Majeure Event the Lessee is unable in whole or in part to carry out the agreements on its part herein contained, other than the obligations on the part of the Lessee contained in Article V and Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 8.6 hereof, the Lessee shall
not be deemed in default during the continuance of such inability. 
 Section 10.2 Remedies on Default. Whenever any event of
default referred to in Section 10.1 hereof shall have happened and be subsisting and subject to the provisions of this Section 10.2, the Issuer may take any one or more of the following remedial steps: 
 (a) The Issuer may, at its option, declare all amounts payable under Section 5.3(a) hereof for the remainder of the Agreement Term to be immediately
due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable. If the Issuer elects to exercise the remedy afforded in this Section 10.2(a) and accelerates all amounts payable under Section 5.3(a) hereof for the remainder of
the Agreement Term, the amount then due and payable by the Lessee as accelerated rents shall be the sum of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Bonds, and (2) all interest and redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds
accruing to the date of such acceleration. Such sums as may then become payable shall be paid into the Bond Fund and after the Bonds and accrued interest thereon have been fully paid and any costs occasioned by such default have been satisfied, any
excess moneys in the Bond Fund shall be returned to the Lessee as an overpayment of rents; provided, however, upon the occurrence of an event of default described in subsections (d) or (e) of Section 10.1 hereof, all amounts payable
under Section 5.3(a) hereof for the remainder of the Agreement Term shall be deemed automatically accelerated without the necessity of any declaration or the taking of any other action whatsoever. 
 (b) The Issuer or the Trustee may re-enter and take possession of the Project without terminating this Lease, and sublease the Project for the account of
the Lessee, holding the Lessee liable for the difference in the rent and other amounts payable by such sublessee in such subleasing and the rents and other amounts payable by the Lessee hereunder. 
 (c) The Issuer may terminate the Lease Term, exclude the Lessee from possession of the Project and use its best efforts to lease the Project to another
for the account of the Issuer, holding the Lessee liable for all rent and other payments due up to the effective date of such leasing. 
 (d)
In the event any of the Bonds shall at the time be outstanding and unpaid, the Issuer or the Trustee may have access to and inspect, examine and make copies of all books and records of the Lessee to the Project. 
 (e) The Issuer may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the rent then due and thereafter to become due,
or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Lessee under this Lease. 
 Any amounts collected
pursuant to action taken under this Section shall be paid into the Bond Fund and applied in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture or, if the Bonds have been fully paid (or provision for payment thereof has been made in accordance with the
provisions of the Indenture), to the Lessee. 
  

 30 








 Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the Issuer and the Trustee shall be prohibited from
accelerating rental payments hereunder and exercise any other rights or remedies provided herein, at law or otherwise, unless and until the Issuer or the Trustee shall have given the Lessee not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written
notice of its intent to declare an event of default, accelerate rental payments and/or exercise any such rights or remedies and the Lessee shall have failed to cure said event of default prior to the expiration of said 30-day period. Any such notice
shall be a separate notice from any notice given pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof and shall specify with particularity the event or events of default that have occurred and are continuing and which actions are proposed to be taken by the Issuer
and/or the Trustee as a result of any such event of default. 
 Section 10.3 No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon
or reserved to the Issuer is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Lease or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time
to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Issuer to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required. Such
rights and remedies as are given to the Issuer hereunder shall also extend to the holders of the Bonds who shall be deemed third party beneficiaries of all covenants and agreements herein contained. 
 Section 10.4 Agreement to Pay Reasonable Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. In the event the Lessee should default under any of the
provisions of this Lease and the Issuer or the Trustee should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of rent or the enforcement of performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the part of the Lessee herein
contained, the Lessee agrees that it will on demand therefor pay to the Issuer the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable expenses so incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee. 
 Section 10.5 No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement contained in this Lease should be breached by either
party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder. 
 Section 10.6 Rescission of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the Lessee may at any time after an event of default
under Section 10.1 hereof, cure said default by the payment of all amounts due and payable (other than amounts payable as a result of any acceleration) or the performance of any duty or obligation then in default and upon said cure the Issuer
and the Trustee shall (i) rescind and annul any acceleration of rent payable hereunder and (ii) cease the exercise of any rights or remedies initiated as a result of such event of default, and take such steps as may be necessary to place
the Lessee in the same position as it rights of the Lessee hereunder shall be fully restored and reinstated as if such event of default never occurred.

 ARTICLE XI 
 OPTIONS IN FAVOR OF LESSEE 
 Section 11.1 General Option to Purchase Project. The Lessee
shall have, and is hereby granted, the option to purchase the entire Project (less those portions which have already been purchased by Lessee, if any, as provided herein) at any time during the Agreement Term and whether or not an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing. 
 To exercise such option, the Lessee shall give written notice to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if any of
the Bonds shall then be unpaid, and shall specify therein the date of closing such purchase, which date shall be not less than fifteen days from the date such notice is mailed. The purchase price which shall be paid to the Issuer by the Lessee in
the event of its exercise of the option granted in this Section shall be the sum of the following: 
 (1) an amount of money
which will be sufficient (or Government Obligations the principal of and the interest on which when due will provide moneys which, together with the moneys, if any, deposited with the Trustee will be sufficient), when added to any amount already on
deposit in the Construction Fund and the Bond Fund, to pay the interest on the then outstanding Bonds until the earliest permissible redemption date following the closing of such purchase and to pay the principal of and interest on all of the Bonds
on such redemption date; 
 (2) an amount of money equal to the fees and expenses of the Trustee under the Indenture accrued
and to accrue (including counsel fees and expenses) until such final payment and redemption of the Bonds; plus 
 (3) the sum
of $10.00 which shall be paid by the Lessee to the Issuer. In the event of the exercise of the option granted in this Section, any Net Proceeds of insurance or condemnation shall be paid directly to the Lessee. 
 Section 11.2 Option to Purchase a Portion of the Project. The Lessee shall have and is hereby granted an option to purchase any portion of
the Project at any time and from time to time and whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, provided that it furnishes the Issuer with the following: 
 (a) A notice in writing containing (i) a description of that portion of the Project with respect to which such option is to be exercised and
(ii) a statement that the Lessee intends to exercise its option to purchase such portion of the Project on a date stated, which shall not be less than ten (10) nor more than ninety (90) days from the date of such notice. 

(b) A certificate of the Authorized Lessee Representative, dated not more than ninety days prior to the date of the purchase and stating that, in the
opinion of the person signing such certificate, (i) the portion of the Project with respect to which the option is exercised are not 

  

 32 








 
needed for the operation of the remaining portion of the Project or that sufficient right and title is reserved to the Issuer to fulfill said needs,
(ii) the purchase will not impair the usefulness of the remaining portion of the Project and will not destroy the means of ingress thereto and egress therefrom. 
 (c) A statement setting forth the original Project Costs attributable to such portion of the Project, as depreciated using rates calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 
 The Issuer agrees that upon receipt of the notice and certificate required in this Section to be furnished to it by the Lessee and the amount specified in subsection
(c) of this Section, the portion of the Project with respect to which the Lessee shall have exercised the option granted in this Section shall automatically cease to be a portion of the Project leased hereunder on the date stated in such
certificate and on such date shall automatically be released from the provisions of this Lease and the Indenture without the necessity of any further action by the Issuer or the Lessee. In the event the Lessee shall exercise the option granted to it
under this Section the Lessee shall not be entitled to any abatement or diminution of the rents payable under Section 5.3 hereof. 
 If
the Lessee purchases any unimproved part of the Project pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the Lessee and the Issuer agree that all walls presently standing or hereafter erected on or contiguous to the boundary line of the Land
so purchased by the Lessee shall be party walls and each party grants the other a 10-foot easement adjacent to any such party wall for the purpose of inspection, maintenance, repair and replacement thereof and the tying-in of new construction. If
the Lessee utilizes any party wall for the purpose of tying-in new construction that will be utilized under common control with the Project, the Lessee may also tie-in to the utility facilities on the Land for the purpose of serving the new
construction and may remove any non-loadbearing wall panels in the party wall; provided, however, that if the property so purchased ceases to be operated under common control with the Project, the Lessee covenants that it will install
non-loadbearing wall panels similar in quality to those that have been removed and will provide separate utility services for the new construction. No wall may be so utilized by the Lessee unless prior thereto the Issuer has been furnished with a
certificate of the Authorized Lessee Representative stating that the proposed utilization will not impair the usefulness of the Project for the purposes for which it was designed to be used. 
 The purchase price payable by the Lessee in connection with the purchase of a portion of the Project in accordance with this Section shall be deposited
in the Bond Fund and used to pay the principal of the Bonds. 
 If and to the extent under any particular circumstances there is deemed any
inconsistency between the provisions of this Section and provisions of Section 6.2, the provisions of Section 6.2 shall be held as controlling and shall supersede the provisions of this Section. 
 Section 11.3 Conveyance on Purchase. At the closing of the purchase pursuant to the exercise of any option to purchase granted in this
Article, the Issuer will, upon receipt of the applicable purchase price (if any), deliver to the Lessee the following: 
 (a) If the
Indenture shall not at the time have been satisfied in full, a release by the Issuer from the provisions of the Indenture of the property with respect to which such option was exercised.

 (b) Documents (including, without limitation, a limited warranty deed and a bill of sale) customarily

(i) those liens and encumbrances (if any) to which title to said property was subject when conveyed to the Issuer; (ii) those liens and encumbrances created by the Lessee or to the creation or suffering of which the Lessee consented in
writing; (iii) those liens and encumbrances resulting from the failure of the Lessee to perform or observe any of the agreements on its part contained in this Lease; and (iv) if the option is exercised while any condemnation proceeding is
pending the rights and title of the condemning authority. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to facilitate the transfer of the
Project to the Lessee upon the Lessee’s exercise of an option to purchase provided in this Article XI, the Issuer agrees to execute and deliver to the Trustee, as escrow agent, on the date of execution and delivery of this Lease the documents
referred to in subsection (b) above to be held pursuant to a Documents Escrow Agreement dated as of December 1, 2002 among the Issuer, the Lessee and the Trustee. The Issuer hereby appoints the Lessee as its attorney-in-fact for the
purpose of dating, completing and filing such documents upon satisfaction by the Lessee of any and all conditions to the exercise of such purchase option as provided herein, and acknowledges and agrees that such appointment is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest. 
 Section 11.4 Relative Position of Options and Indenture. The options respectively granted to the
Lessee in this Article shall be and remain prior and superior to the Indenture and may be exercised whether or not the Lessee is in default hereunder, provided that such default will not result in the nonfulfillment of any condition to the exercise
of any such option. 
 Section 11.5 Lessee’s Option to Terminate. The Lessee shall have the following options to terminate
this Agreement whether or not the Lessee is in default hereunder or there exists an Event of Default hereunder: 
 (a) At any time prior to
payment in full of the Bonds within the meaning of the Indenture, and particularly Article IX thereof, the Lessee may terminate the Agreement Term by irrevocably depositing in the Bond Fund moneys which will be sufficient, or Government Obligations
the principal of and interest on which when due will provide moneys which, together with any moneys on deposit in the Bond Fund, will be sufficient, according to the provisions of Article IX of the Indenture, to pay in full all of the Bonds then
outstanding, and fees and expenses due or to become due to the Trustee and by making adequate provision for the publication of any redemption notice that may be required by the Indenture. 
 (b) At any time after payment in full of the Bonds within the meaning of the Indenture, and particularly Article IX thereof, the Lessee may terminate the
Agreement Term by giving the Issuer notice in writing, and such termination shall become effective forthwith.

 Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the purchase of the Project by the Lessee pursuant to any
option provided in this Lease shall automatically terminate the Lease Term, if not previously terminated. 
 Section 11.6 Conveyance
of Project at End of Lease Term. Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, the Issuer shall have the right and option on or after the Stated Termination Date to convey the Project to the Lessee, with or without receipt of any consideration
therefor, by executing any recording documents conveying to the Lessee good and marketable title to the Project subject to such liens and encumbrances as are described in Section 11.3(b)(i) through (iv).
