Removal of Equipment. 
 The Agency shall
not be under any obligation to remove, repair or replace any inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary item of Equipment. In any instance where the Company determines that any item of Equipment has become inadequate,
obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary, the Company may remove such item of Equipment from the Facility and may sell, trade in, exchange or otherwise dispose of the same, as a whole or in part.

 DEFAULT 
 Events of Default Defined. 
 Each of the following shall be an “Event of Default”
under this Leaseback Agreement: 
 If the Company fails to pay the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Leaseback
Agreement and such failure shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after the Agency gives written notice of such failure to the Company; or 
 If there is any purposeful, willful and knowing breach by the Company of any of its other agreements or covenants set forth in this Leaseback Agreement; or 

If there is any failure by the Company to observe or perform any other covenant, condition or agreement required by this Leaseback Agreement to be
observed or performed and such failure shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after the Agency gives written notice to the Company, specifying that failure and stating that it be remedied, or in the case of any such default which
can be cured with due diligence but not within such 30-day period, the Company’s failure to proceed promptly to cure such default and thereafter prosecute the curing of such default with due diligence; or 

If any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Leaseback Agreement is incorrect in any material respect when made; or 

If there is any failure by the Company to observe or perform any covenant, condition or agreement required by any other agreement between the Company and
the Agency to be observed or performed by the Company (including, but not limited to, the Agent Agreement and the PILOT Agreement) and such failure shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after the Agency gives written notice to
the Company specifying that failure and stating that it be remedied, or in the case of any such default which can be cured with due diligence but not within such thirty (30) day period, the Company’s failure to proceed promptly to cure
such default and thereafter prosecute the curing of such default with due diligence. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1(a)
hereof, if by reason of force majeure either party hereto shall be unable in whole or in part to carry out its obligations under this Leaseback Agreement and if such party shall give notice and full particulars of such force majeure in writing to
the other party within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the event or cause relied upon, the obligations under this Leaseback Agreement of the party giving such notice, so far as they are affected by such force majeure, shall be suspended
during continuance of the inability, which shall include a reasonable time for the removal of the effect thereof. The suspension of such obligations for such period pursuant to this subsection (b) shall not be deemed an Event of Default under
this Section 7.1. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (b), an event of force majeure shall not excuse, delay or
in any way diminish the obligations of the Company to make the payments required by Section 2.6 and Section 3.3 hereof, to obtain and continue in full force and effect the insurance required by Section 3.4 hereof, and to provide the
indemnity required by the Unassigned Rights as set forth in Section 10.10 hereof. The term “force majeure” as used herein shall include, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts or other industrial disturbances, acts of
public enemies, acts, priorities or orders of any kind of the government of the United States of America or of the State or any of their departments, agencies, governmental subdivisions, or officials, any civil or military authority, insurrections,
riots, epidemics, landslides, lightning, earthquakes, fire, hurricanes, storms, floods, washouts, droughts, arrests, restraint of government and people, civil disturbances, explosions, breakage or accident to machinery, transmission pipes or canals,
shortages of labor or materials or delays of carriers, partial or entire failure of utilities, shortage of energy or any other cause or event not reasonably within the control of the party claiming such inability and not due to its fault. The party
claiming such inability shall remove the cause for the same with all reasonable promptness. It is agreed that the settlement of strikes, lockouts and other industrial disturbances shall be entirely within the discretion of the party having
difficulty, and the party having difficulty shall not be required to settle any strike, lockout and other industrial disturbances by acceding to the demands of the opposing party or parties. 
 Remedies on Default. 
 Whenever any Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Agency may take, to the extent permitted by law, any one or more of the following remedial steps; 







 Declare, by written notice to the Company, to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable: (i) all unpaid installments of rent payable pursuant to Section 2.6(a) hereof and (ii) all other payments due under this Leaseback Agreement. 

Take any other action as it shall deem necessary to cure any such Event of Default, provided that the taking of any such action shall not be deemed to
constitute a waiver of such Event of Default. 
 Take any other action at law or in equity which may appear necessary or desirable to collect
the payments then due or thereafter to become due hereunder, and to enforce the obligations, agreements or covenants of the Company under this Leaseback Agreement. 
 Terminate this Leaseback Agreement and convey the Facility to the Company or its designee. 

Remedies Cumulative. 
 No
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Agency is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy given under this Leaseback Agreement or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity. 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. 
 Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. 

In the event the Company should default under any of the provisions of this Leaseback Agreement and the Agency should employ attorneys or
incur other expenses for the collection of amounts payable hereunder or the enforcement of performance or observance of any obligations or agreements on the part of the Company herein contained, the Company shall, on demand therefor, pay to the
Agency, the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred. 
 No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver.

 In the event any agreement contained herein should be breached by any party and thereafter waived by any other party, such
waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.
