Tenant covenants and agrees that, so long as any of the Bonds (as defined below) are outstanding, (A) no portion of the Premises will be used in a manner, and Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the Common Use Facilities in a manner, that causes the Bond Financed Property (as defined herein) to cease to be treated as an “airport facility” within the meaning of Section 1.103-8(e) of the United States Treasury Department Regulations and (B) the Premises will at all times be used, pursuant to a lease or other written agreement, solely by an entity that directly serves members of the general public (as a common carrier or otherwise).

ARTICLE 7
Rent and Other Payments
7.01. Base Rent. In each Lease Year during the Initial Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord annual base rent for the Lease Year in question as set forth below (“Base Rent”), which annual Base Rent shall be payable in advance in consecutive equal monthly installments commencing on the Effective Date and continuing on the first day of each and every calendar month thereafter during the Initial Lease Term.
| Lease Year | Annual Base Rent | |
| Lease Years 1 through 3, inclusive | $3,000,000.00 | |
| Lease Years 4 through 6, inclusive | As determined below in this Section 7.01 | |
| Lease Years 7 through 9, inclusive | As determined below in this Section 7.01 | |
Base Rent shall be paid as aforesaid without demand, notice or setoff. In the event that the Effective Date shall occur on a day which is other than the first day of a calendar month, then the installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant on the Effective Date shall be an amount equal to the product which is obtained when (a) the per diem amount of Base Rent which Tenant is obligated to pay to Landlord hereunder during the first Lease Year is multiplied by (b) the number of days which elapse during the period from (and including) the Effective Date to (but excluding) the first day of the calendar month next succeeding the month in which the Effective Date occurs.
Base Rent shall increase on the first day of (a) the fourth (4th) Lease Year and the (b) the seventh (7th) Lease Year (each, an “Adjustment Date”) and shall be determined on each Adjustment Date by multiplying the annual Base Rent for the first Lease Year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Index (as defined herein) in effect for the month of March immediately preceding the Adjustment Date and the denominator of which is the Index in effect for March, 2010 (which is 133.096).
As used in this Lease Agreement, the term “Index” shall mean the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index - All Urban Consumers, Series ID CUURX200SAO, Not Seasonally Adjusted, Area: Midwest Size Class B/C, Item: All Items, Base Period: December 1996 = 100 (the “Index”). If the Index at any time during the Lease Term has changed so that the base year of the Index differs from the base year initially used by the parties, the Index shall be converted in accordance with the conversion factor published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. If the Index is discontinued or revised during the Lease Term, such other government index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be
-8-
obtained if the Index has not been discontinued or revised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as provided in Section 7.02 below, in no event shall the adjusted Base Rent due during any Lease Year be less than the Base Rent due during the prior Lease Year.
Base Rent for the Renewal Term, if any, shall be agreed upon by the parties in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof.
7.02 Base Rent Adjustments Resulting From Changes in Air Park Occupancy. Landlord and Tenant recognize that Base Rent hereunder constitutes what is commonly referred to as “gross rent” which includes a component representing Landlord’s recovery of expenses relating to the operation, maintenance and repair of the areas of the Air Park that are not included in the Premises. As of the Effective Date, such annual Air Park operating expenses amount to $1,424,096 (which amount of $1,424,096, as hereafter adjusted in the same manner and at the same times as Base Rent is adjusted as provided in Section 7.01 of this Lease Agreement, is herein referred to as the “Expense Component”). As occupancy of the Air Park changes from time to time during the Term, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to adjust Base Rent in the manner provided in this Section 7.02, to reflect a reallocation of the Expense Component among the Air Park tenants. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:
| (A) | Increases in Occupancy. In the event that a new tenant leases space in the Air Park (or a then-existing tenant leases additional space in the Air Park), then, effective as of the date that such new or then-existing tenant commences the payment of rent for such newly-leased space, Base Rent hereunder shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of the Expense Component and a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of newly-leased square feet and the denominator of which is the total number of square feet of then-leasable space in the Air Park. As of the Effective Date, the parties hereby agree that the Air Park includes 1,900,967 square feet of leasable space. |
| (B) | Decreases in Occupancy. In the event that Base Rent is reduced in accordance with Section 7.02(A) and one or more tenants subsequently vacate space in the Air Park, resulting in the Landlord’s gross revenues arising from its ownership and operation of the Air Park being less than its total expenses incurred therefrom for the same period (an “Operating Deficit”), then, upon the request of Landlord, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith with respect to an increase in the Base Rent to the extent required in order to alleviate such Operating Deficit, with the understanding that any resulting increase shall not result in the Base Rent exceeding that amount which it otherwise would have been in the absence of prior reductions in accordance with Section 7.02(A). In the event that Base Rent is increased in accordance with this Section 7.02(B) and, thereafter, Landlord’s gross revenues arising from its ownership and operation of the Air Park begin to exceed its total expenses incurred therefrom for the same period due to a reduction in such expenses, then Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant thereof and the Base Rent shall be reduced on an equitable basis, with the understanding that any resulting decrease shall not result in the Base Rent being lower than that amount which it otherwise would have been in the absence of the prior increase agreed upon in accordance with this Section 7.02(B). In conjunction with the negotiations between the parties in accordance with this Section 7.02(B), Landlord shall make available to Tenant upon request supporting documentation relating to such Operating Deficit and any such |
-9-
| other information relating to the Operating Deficit as Tenant may reasonably request. Any increase or subsequent decrease in the Base Rent, as well as the effective dates thereof, in accordance with this Section 7.02(B) shall be documented in writing and signed by both parties. |
Monthly installments of Base Rent payable under this Lease Agreement shall be prorated, as appropriate, for the month during which any adjustment to Base Rent under this Section 7.02 occurs.
7.03. Late Payments. If Tenant is delinquent in any monthly installment of Base Rent or any other sums due hereunder for more than ten (10) days after such installment or sum is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such delinquent sum. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that any such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs which Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. The provision for such late charge shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as a penalty or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner.
ARTICLE 8
Taxes, Assessments, Utilities
8.01. Taxes and Assessments. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay, when due, all intangible, personal, sales and personal property taxes in connection with the Fixtures and/or any other property or fixtures now or hereafter situated at the Premises and owned by Tenant. Landlord will pay all real property taxes and assessments due in connection with the Air Park, including the Premises. Tenant shall have no right to initiate any protest regarding real property taxes or assessments in connection with all or any part of the Air Park.
8.02. Utilities. Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, electricity, heat, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler services, refuse and trash collection, and other utilities and services pertaining to the Premises, including all maintenance charges for utilities used on or at the Premises, and any storm sewer charges or other similar charges for utilities imposed by any governmental entity or utility provider pertaining to the Premises. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, endeavor in good faith to cause any of said services to be separately metered and charged directly to Tenant by the provider, if and as reasonably practical to do so and without undue expense to either party. Tenant and Landlord each shall pay their respective shares of all charges for jointly metered utilities based upon respective consumption, as reasonably and jointly determined by Landlord and Tenant. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable to the other for any interruption or failure of utilities or any other service to the Premises or the Air Park, respectively, and no such interruption or failure shall result in the abatement of rent hereunder or otherwise permit Tenant to terminate this Lease Agreement.
-10-
ARTICLE 9
Security Deposit
Tenant shall deposit with Landlord on the date hereof a security deposit in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Security Deposit”), which shall be held by Landlord as security for the prompt, full and faithful performance by Tenant of the terms and provisions of this Lease Agreement. If Tenant commits a default, Landlord may use or apply the whole or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. The use or application of the Security Deposit shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy available to Landlord and shall not be construed as liquidated damages. If the Security Deposit is reduced by such use or application, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord within ten (10) days after written notice, an amount sufficient to restore the full amount of the Security Deposit. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from Landlord’s general funds or pay interest on the Security Deposit. Any remaining portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant after Tenant has vacated the Premises in full compliance with the terms of this Lease Agreement.

(B) Without limiting the foregoing, if any condition covered by Tenant’s indemnification obligations set forth in Section 10.03(A) occurs (each an “Environmental Indemnification Condition”), then (a) Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly take all actions as are reasonably necessary to return the Premises or the Common Use Facilities, as the case may be, or any improvements thereon (and the Air Park, to the extent applicable) in all material respects to the condition required by applicable Environmental Laws; provided, that Landlord’s approval of such actions shall first be obtained, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and (b) if, due to a Release of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any Person acting through or on behalf of Tenant during the Lease Term or during the ABX Prior Possession Period, a governmental authority determines that site investigation, site assessment and/or a cleanup plan must be prepared or that a cleanup should be undertaken on or surrounding the Premises or the Common Use Facilities or in any improvements thereon due to any such Release by Tenant or any Person acting through or on behalf of Tenant, then, subject to the terms of this Article 10, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, prepare and submit the required plans and financial assurances, and carry out the approved plans; provided that, Tenant shall have the right to participate with Landlord in all discussions and communications with such governmental authority with respect to such matters and the right to contest in good faith and with diligence any such determination by such governmental authority, and to assert claims against any third party. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall have no responsibility or liability under this Agreement for cleanup or any other action relating to a Release of Hazardous materials in, on or under, or from the Premises or the Common Use Facilities occurring prior to the ABX Prior Possession Period.
-12-
(C) The following terms shall apply to any and all Indemnified Exposures claims made by Landlord against Tenant relating to any Environmental Indemnification Condition under this Lease Agreement:
| (i) | Prior to asserting any such Indemnified Exposures claim against Tenant, Landlord shall provide to Tenant: (a) prompt, written notice of such Indemnified Exposures claim with sufficient detail so as to permit Tenant to understand the nature of such claim, and (b) if curable, a reasonable opportunity for Tenant to cure the same by causing action to be taken to remedy or otherwise address the Environmental Indemnification Condition (and/or the consequences thereof, including, without limitation, fines or penalties) which gives rise to such Indemnified Exposures claim. |
| (ii) | Landlord’s claims relating to Indemnified Exposures shall be limited to Indemnified Exposures arising out of or relating to any one or all of the following: (a) any claims, actions, suits, proceedings or demands instituted or asserted by a third party, including, without limitation, by a governmental authority having jurisdiction; (b) one or more Environmental Indemnification Conditions that materially interfere with any bona fide then-existing use or reasonably anticipated use of the Premises and/or the Air Park by Landlord or its employees, agents, tenants or invitees; (c) one or more Environmental Indemnification Conditions that reasonably do or could adversely affect the health, safety or welfare of the public or any user of or invitee at the Air Park taking into account any applicable standards for such health, safety and public welfare considerations included in the applicable Environmental Laws; or (d) one or more Environmental Indemnification Conditions which Landlord is required by applicable Environmental Laws to address; and |
| (iii) | Landlord’s claims relating to remediation of an Indemnified Environmental Condition shall be limited to those costs reasonably necessary to attain Ohio EPA Voluntary Action Program standards applicable to the current “Land Use and Activities” category for the Premises and/or the affected Common Use Facilities, as the case may be, as that term is defined in Ohio Administrative Code 3745-300-08(C)(2)(c)(iii)(March 1, 2009 edition), with no use of groundwater for any |
-13-
| purpose other than monitoring and no use of subsurface structures for human occupancy, and not for any other more superior uses or more stringent standards. |
(D) The indemnification and hold harmless obligations of Tenant under this Section 10.03 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Lease Agreement, any renewal, expansion or amendment of this Lease Agreement and/or the execution and delivery of any new lease with Tenant covering all or any portion of the Premises or the Air Park. The term “Indemnified Exposures” shall include, without limitation, necessary costs incurred in connection with any investigation of on-site conditions or off-site conditions directly relating to Releases of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or its permitted sublessees from the Premises or the Common Use Facilities or any necessary cleanup, remediation, removal or restoration work required by an Environmental Law because of any matter covered by Tenant’s indemnification under this Section 10.03.
10.04. Reporting. Tenant, at Tenant’s own cost and expense, shall make all submissions to, provide all information to, and comply with all applicable requirements of the appropriate governmental authorities as required of Tenant under applicable Environmental Laws. At no cost or expense to Landlord, Tenant shall promptly provide information reasonably requested by Landlord that is in Tenant’s possession or subject to its control to (a) determine the applicability of the Environmental Laws to the Premises or operations conducted thereon, or (b) respond to any governmental inquiry or investigation or to respond to any claim of liability by third parties which is related to environmental conditions in connection with the Premises.
Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any of the following: (a) any correspondence or communication from any governmental authority regarding the application of Environmental Laws to the Premises or Tenant’s operations on the Premises or at the Air Park, (b) any change in Tenant’s operations on the Premises or at the Air Park that will change Landlord’s obligations or could increase or reasonably be expected to increase Tenant’s or Landlord’s obligations or liabilities under Environmental Laws and (c) any incidents occurring in or at the Premises and/or any other areas within the Air Park regarding Hazardous Material, including, without limitation, any Release of Hazardous Material. At any time Tenant submits any filing or required documentation pertaining to investigations or violations relative to Hazardous Materials situated in or on or Released from the Premises or the Common Use Facilities to any governmental authority (other than the Internal Revenue Service), including, by way of example but not in limitation, the FAA, the Environmental Protection Agency or any similar State of Ohio agency or department, Tenant shall provide duplicate copies of the filing(s) made, along with any related documents, to Landlord.
At Landlord’s request upon or promptly after expiration, termination or cessation of this Lease Agreement for any reason, Tenant shall make available to Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, for copying all environmental inspections, reports or other documentation related to compliance with, or activity related to compliance with, Environmental Laws at or about the Premises or the Common Use Facilities.
10.05. Landlord Assessments. In accordance with the provisions of Article 21 hereof, Landlord shall have such access to, and a right to perform such inspections and tests of,
-14-
the Premises as it may reasonably require to determine compliance with Environmental Laws and Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Such inspections and tests shall be conducted at Landlord’s expense, unless such inspections or tests document, that Tenant has violated any Environmental Laws and/or the terms of this Lease Agreement, in which case Tenant shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for the reasonable cost of such inspection and tests documenting Tenant’s non-compliance. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease Agreement, Landlord shall have the right, at its option and at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to undertake an environmental assessment of the Premises. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord’s receipt of or satisfaction with any environmental assessment in no way waives any rights that Landlord holds against Tenant or any defenses that Tenant holds against Landlord.
10.06 Related Tenant Obligations. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date: (A) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall cease to use and shall mechanically plug (or reroute to the sanitary sewer if proper governmental approvals are obtained and maintained at no expense to Landlord) all indoor floor drains within the Premises that currently do or could discharge directly or indirectly to the storm sewer system at the Air Park; (B) Landlord and Tenant shall work cooperatively to effect, if and as reasonably practical to do so and without undue expense to either party, possible changes to the current City of Wilmington WWTP Permit No. 1015-09 for sanitary sewage discharges, including, without limitation, to establish procedures and protocols to separately measure, and/or to obtain a separate permit for, discharges by Tenant into the City of Wilmington sanitary sewer system; and (C) Landlord and Tenant shall work collaboratively to determine the necessity and/or appropriateness of Tenant obtaining its own Industrial Activities Stormwater Permit from Ohio EPA relating to Tenant’s activities in or on the Premises and/or the Common Use Facilities.
ARTICLE 11
General Indemnification
11.01. General Indemnification Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and in addition to and not in limitation of any other indemnification provisions set forth in this Lease Agreement, but subject to the provisions of Section 12.03 hereof, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord from and against: (i) any loss, liability, or damage suffered or incurred by Landlord arising from or in connection with (a) Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises and/or Tenant’s performance of its responsibilities under this Lease Agreement (other than losses, liabilities or damages that actually are covered by the insurance policies described in Section 12.02 hereof), or (b) the non-performance of the terms of this Lease Agreement to be performed by Tenant; (ii) any loss, liability, or damage suffered or incurred by Landlord on account of injury to Person or property or from loss of life sustained in, on, or about the Premises or the Air Park resulting from the willful misconduct or negligent act or omission of Tenant or of its employees or from any act or omission of Tenant or of its employees that violates applicable laws; and (iii) all actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) directly relating to the foregoing. In the event that a claim for indemnification results from or arises out of a circumstance described in Section 10.03 and such claim could also be asserted under this Article 11, then such claim shall be brought under, and be subject to the conditions of, Section 10.03.
-15-
11.02. Claims Procedures. In the event that any claim is asserted, or any action or proceeding is instituted, against Landlord by reason of any event or occurrence in respect of which Tenant is to provide indemnity as provided in Section 11.01 of this Lease Agreement:
(A) Tenant shall, if requested in writing by Landlord, cause such claim, action or proceeding to be resisted, defended and resolved, at the Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and by legal counsel to be approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or
(B) In the event that Tenant shall fail to engage legal counsel within thirty(30) days after the written request contemplated by clause (A) above, Landlord may cause such claim, action or proceeding to be resisted and defended by legal counsel designated by Landlord, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, upon demand made from time to time, for the costs thereby incurred by Landlord (including the reasonable fees of attorneys, paralegals, experts, court reporters and others) and actual amounts paid to resolve any such claim, action or proceeding.
ARTICLE 12
Insurance
12.01. Tenant’s Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Lease Term, at Tenant’s expense, the following insurance:
(A) Commercial general liability (CGL) and, if necessary, commercial umbrella insurance, with liability limits of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) combined single limit coverage. If such CGL insurance contains a general aggregate limit, it shall apply separately to the Premises. Such CGL insurance shall be provided pursuant to a stand-alone policy or as part of a commercial aviation liability policy and shall cover liability on an occurrence basis arising from premises, operations, independent contractors, products-completed operations, personal and advertising injury and liability assumed under an insured contract.
(B) Automobile Liability insurance with liability limits of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) combined single limit per accident (without annual aggregate) for bodily injury and property damage. Defense costs shall apply in addition to the limit of liability. Coverage shall include contractual liability and shall apply to owned, leased, hired and non-owned autos, both on and off the Air Park.
(C) Statutory workers’ compensation coverage as required by the State of Ohio and employer’s liability with limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) bodily injury by accident, One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) bodily injury by disease, and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) bodily injury by disease, each employee.
(D) Commercial property insurance covering the Fixtures. Such insurance shall cover the perils covered under the ISO special causes of loss form (CP 10 30) and shall cover the replacement cost of the property insured.
-16-
Tenant shall cause Landlord, WAP, DMCPA, and the Trustee to be identified, by endorsement, as additional insureds in connection with any and all insurance policies (other than the commercial property insurance policy, workers’ compensation policies, and employer’s liability policies) provided for under this Lease Agreement and, upon Landlord’s request, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Landlord evidence of said insurance coverages in the form of appropriate certificates of insurance and endorsements to the underlying policies. Such policies and certificates of insurance shall provide that Landlord will be notified in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the cancellation, material change or non-renewal of any such insurance policy.
12.02. Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Lease Term, at Landlord’s expense (except as herein provided), commercial property insurance covering the Air Park, including the Buildings. Such insurance shall cover the perils covered under the ISO special causes of loss form (CP 10 30) and, as to Buildings in which the Premises are situated, shall cover the replacement cost of the Buildings insured. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its proportionate share of the premiums paid by Landlord for the commercial property insurance covering the Building(s) in which the Premises are located, such proportionate share to be determined on a Building-by-Building basis and to be equal to the product of (i) the amount of the premium paid by Landlord in connection with the pertinent insured Building and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of square feet of leasable space occupied by Tenant under this Lease Agreement in the pertinent insured Building and the denominator of which is the total number of square feet of leasable space contained in the pertinent insured Building. Such reimbursement shall be made not later than fifteen (15) days following a written request therefor from Landlord accompanied by evidence of payment of such premium and a calculation of the amount of the requested reimbursement.
12.03. Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive recovery of damages against each other for loss or damage to their property to the extent the same is or could be covered by the commercial property insurance required in Sections 12.01 and 12.02 above. Because the provisions of this Section 12.03 preclude the assignment of any claim mentioned herein, by way of subrogation or otherwise, to an insurance company or any other person, each party to this Lease Agreement shall give to each insurance company which has issued to it one or more policies of commercial property insurance notice of the terms of the mutual releases contained in this Section 12.03, and have such insurance policies properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation of insurance coverages by reason of these mutual releases.
ARTICLE 13
Maintenance and Repair; Alterations; Signage
13.01. Maintenance and Operation. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the Premises at all times during the Lease Term to be operated, maintained and repaired in good condition and repair and in compliance with all present and future laws, codes, rules, orders, ordinances, regulations, statutes and requirements of any federal, state, county, or other governmental entity having jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Tenant shall not use, permit or suffer the use of the Premises, the Common Use Facilities or any part of either of them, for any unlawful purpose or for any dangerous or noxious trade or business, or in violation of any occupancy permit issued in respect thereof. Tenant shall not commit, suffer or permit waste in or to the Premises or the Common Use Facilities.
-17-
13.02. Alterations. Tenant shall not make any alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises, unless and until Tenant has received Landlord’s prior written consent and approval of the complete plans and specifications therefor, which consent and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord. All such alterations, improvements or additions shall be performed in all material respects in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
13.03. Signage. Tenant may, at its own expense, maintain the signage which exists on the Premises on the Effective Date. Tenant shall not make any modifications to any signs or install any new or additional signs unless and until Tenant has received Landlord’s prior written consent and approval of the complete plans and specifications therefor, which consent and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord. All such signage shall be constructed and displayed in all material respects in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and in compliance with local, state and federal laws, ordinances and regulations.
ARTICLE 14
Casualty Damage
14.01. Landlord Election. In the event that any portion of the Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or any other casualty (“Casualty Damage”), Landlord may elect, at its option, by written notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Casualty Damage: (a) to repair and restore the Premises (but not any of the Fixtures); (b) to effect a Partial Termination (as defined herein); or (c) to terminate this Lease Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Casualty Damage occurs to the Premises that is covered by the commercial property insurance to be obtained and maintained by Landlord pursuant to Section 12.02 hereof, then Tenant, at Tenant’s option exercised by written notice to Landlord given within the earlier to occur of (i) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Casualty Damage or (ii) ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s election not to repair and restore the Premises pursuant to Section 14.01(b) or (c) hereof, Landlord shall be obligated to repair and restore the Premises (but not any of the Fixtures), in which case, any election by Landlord not to repair and restore the Premises pursuant to Section 14.01(b) or (c) hereof shall be deemed to have been overridden and Landlord shall be deemed to have elected to repair and restore the Premises pursuant to Section 14.01(a) hereof (the “Tenant Override Option”). In the event that Tenant exercises the Tenant Override Option and the costs of such repair and restoration to the Premises shall exceed $1,000,000.00, then no termination of this Lease Agreement by Tenant pursuant to Section 24.15 hereof shall be effective until the date that is at least one (1) year from the date of completion of said repair and restoration of the Premises.
14.02. Restoration. In the event Landlord shall elect (or shall be deemed to have elected pursuant to the Tenant Override Option) to repair and restore the Premises under Section 14.01(a) hereof, then (a) Landlord shall promptly commence repair and restoration of the Premises to the condition the Premises were in immediately prior to the Casualty Damage and
-18-
diligently pursue such repair and restoration to completion and (b) this Lease Agreement shall continue in full force and effect; provided, that Base Rent shall temporarily abate from the date of the Casualty Damage through the completion by Landlord of the repair or restoration of the Premises in order to reflect the portion of the Premises rendered temporarily unusable by the Casualty Damage and shall be determined by multiplying the annual Base Rent then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet in the Premises which remain usable by Tenant during such repair and restoration and the denominator of which shall be 500,000.
14.03. Partial Termination. If any Casualty Damage results in the destruction of one or more of the Buildings but not all of the Premises, Landlord may elect pursuant to Section 14.01(b) to terminate this Lease Agreement only with respect to the portion of the Premises which was materially affected by such Casualty Damage and maintain this Lease Agreement in full force and effect with respect to the portion of the Premises not materially affected by the Casualty Damage (a “Partial Termination”). In the event of a Partial Termination, annual Base Rent shall be permanently reduced to reflect the reduced area of the Premises and shall be determined by multiplying the annual Base Rent then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet contained in the Premises after such Partial Termination and the denominator of which shall be 500,000.
14.04. Tenant Election Upon Substantial Damage. If Landlord has elected to repair and restore the Premises under Section 14.01(a) or to cause a Partial Termination under Section 14.01(b) (a “Continuation Election”), but Casualty Damage is so extensive so as to result in a permanent substantial adverse impact upon Tenant’s business conducted on or from the Premises, Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease Agreement upon written notice to Landlord together with documentation which clearly demonstrates the basis for the Tenant’s election to terminate, which notice and supporting documentation shall be given, if at all, within twenty (20) days following receipt of the Continuation Election.
14.05. Total Termination. In the event this Lease Agreement is properly terminated in accordance with Section 14.01(c) or Section 14.04 of this Lease Agreement, this Lease Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall terminate effective as of the thirtieth (30th) day after the party electing to terminate this Lease Agreement has provided notice of such election to the other party. All Base Rent and other sums required to be paid by Tenant hereunder shall be apportioned and paid as of the effective date of such termination.
ARTICLE 15
Condemnation
15.01. Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises are taken by any condemning authority under the power of eminent domain or otherwise, or by any purchase or other acquisition in lieu of eminent domain or otherwise (a “Total Take”), or if Tenant has the right to and does terminate this Lease Agreement in accordance with Section 15.02(A)(i) below, then this Lease Agreement and the Lease Term shall terminate as of the date when possession of the Premises is required by the condemning authority, and all Base Rent and other sums required to be paid by Tenant hereunder shall be apportioned and paid to the date of such taking.
-19-
15.02. Partial Condemnation.
(A) In the event that only a portion of the Premises is taken or condemned by any condemning authority, Landlord shall immediately send written notice thereof to Tenant. If said portion of the Premises so taken or condemned constitutes a “substantial portion of the Premises” as defined in Section 15.02 (C) below, then Tenant shall have the right to elect, by written notice to Landlord within twenty (20) days after receipt from Landlord of the aforesaid notice of condemnation, either: (i) to terminate this Lease Agreement as of the date of the taking of possession by the condemning authority, in which event the Base Rent and all other charges shall be apportioned and paid to the date of the taking, or (ii) to terminate this Lease Agreement only with respect to the portion of the Premises taken by such condemning authority and otherwise to continue this Lease Agreement in full force and effect. In the event that any such taking or condemnation involves less than a “substantial portion of the Premises”, or if it does involve a “substantial portion of the Premises” but Tenant makes the election set forth in clause 15.02(A)(ii) above, then Base Rent will be reduced to reflect the reduced area of the Premises and will be determined by multiplying the annual Base Rent then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet contained in the Premises after the taking and the denominator of which shall be 500,000 and such reduced Base Rent will become effective upon the date of such taking.
(B) If this Lease Agreement is not terminated as set forth in Section 15.01 or 15.02(A)(i) hereof, then the award or payment for the taking shall be paid to and used by Landlord to restore, with reasonable dispatch, the portion of the Premises remaining, after the taking, to substantially the same condition and tenantability as existed immediately preceding the taking.
(C) A “substantial portion of the Premises” shall be deemed to have been condemned if such condemnation relates to a portion of the Premises the absence of which would reasonably result in a permanent substantial adverse impact upon Tenant’s business conducted on or from the Premises.
(D) Termination of this Lease Agreement because of condemnation shall be without prejudice to the rights of either Landlord or Tenant to recover from the condemning authority compensation and damages for the injury and loss sustained by them as a result of the taking. Landlord shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority compensation and damages for the injury and loss sustained by Landlord as a result of the taking of the Premises, including land and any improvements. Tenant shall have the right to make an independent claim against the condemning authority for the Fixtures, interruption or dislocation of business in the Premises, loss of good will, and for moving expenses as long as such claim by Tenant does not reduce the amount payable to Landlord.
-20-
ARTICLE 16
Assignment and Subletting
16.01. Assignment. Tenant shall not assign this Lease Agreement or its rights in or to the Premises or the Common Use Facilities, or permit the assumption of all or any part of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease Agreement, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord. Notwithstanding any such consent, and unless otherwise agreed in the pertinent assignment documentation, Tenant will remain jointly and severally liable (along with any approved assignee), and Landlord shall be permitted to enforce the provisions of this Lease Agreement directly against Tenant and/or any assignee without being required to proceed in any way against the other. For purposes of this Section 16.01, (a) an assignment shall mean the direct or indirect sale, conveyance, mortgage, hypothecation, pledge, transfer or assignment of this Lease Agreement by Tenant, or the assumption of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, to or by any Persons, but shall not include (i) any security interest granted by Tenant in this Lease Agreement as required by the terms of any credit facility of Tenant and/or its Affiliates, or (ii) an assignment of Tenant’s rights under this Agreement to a successor or parent corporation in connection with any sale of substantially all of the assets or stock of Tenant, whether via merger or otherwise and (b) a “merger” refers to any merger in which Tenant participates, regardless of whether it is the surviving or disappearing entity.
16.02. Subletting. Tenant shall not sublease all or any part of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord. For purposes of this Lease Agreement, a “sublease” shall include subleases, licenses, concessions, and all other possessory arrangements entered into by Tenant in respect of the Premises. If Landlord consents to a sublease, no such subletting shall release or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall be deemed to have been consented to by Landlord as sublessees: (a) the Affiliates of Tenant which are identified on Exhibit E, attached hereto and fully incorporated herein, occupying those pertinent portions of the Premises as identified on said Exhibit E, and (b) any relocation, from time to time and within the defined boundaries of the Premises, of the physical offices or work stations of administrative employees of Tenant or the Affiliates of Tenant identified on Exhibit E, as amended from time to time (a “Permitted Space Adjustment”). For the avoidance of doubt, a Permitted Space Adjustment shall not include a relocation of employees of Tenant or the aforesaid Affiliates of Tenant if such relocation causes any portion of the Premises that houses administrative offices prior to any such relocation to be used for non-administrative offices.
ARTICLE 17
Conveyance or Encumbrancing by Landlord
17.01. Conveyances. Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to sell, assign, convey or transfer to any Person all or any part of its right, title or interest in or to the Premises; subject, however, to this Lease Agreement. In the event of a sale or transfer of the Premises, Landlord (or, in the case of a subsequent transfer, the transferor) shall, after the date of such transfer, be automatically released from all further liability for the performance or observance of
-21-
any term, condition, covenant or obligation required to be performed or observed by Landlord hereunder, and the transferee shall be deemed to have assumed all of such terms, conditions, covenants and obligations, it being intended hereby that such terms, conditions, covenants and obligations shall be binding upon Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their successive periods of ownership during the Lease Term. Upon Tenant’s request, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant copies of the recorded deed and any lease assignment executed and delivered by Landlord in connection with any such conveyance by Landlord.
17.02. Subordination and Attornment. This Lease Agreement and Tenant’s interest and rights hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of any mortgage of Landlord’s right, title and interest in and to the Premises (a “Fee Mortgage”), now existing or hereafter created on or against the Air Park or the Premises, and all amendments, restatements, renewals, modifications, consolidations, refinancing, assignments and extensions thereof, without the necessity of any further instrument or act on the part of Tenant. Tenant agrees, at the election of the holder of any such Fee Mortgage (a “Fee Mortgagee”), to attorn to any such holder, provided that the Fee Mortgagee agrees to not disturb the possession, use or enjoyment of the Premises by Tenant, or disaffirm this Lease Agreement, so long as Tenant shall fully perform its obligations under this Lease Agreement. Tenant agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver, within ten (10) days following Landlord’s request therefor, such commercially reasonable instruments confirming such subordination and attornment as shall be requested by any Fee Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Fee Mortgagee may at any time subordinate its Fee Mortgage to this Lease Agreement, without notice or Tenant’s consent, and thereupon this Lease Agreement shall be deemed prior to such Fee Mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution, delivery or recording and in that event such Fee Mortgagee shall have the same rights with respect to this Lease Agreement as though this Lease Agreement had been executed prior to the execution, delivery and recording of such Fee Mortgage.
17.03. Notice and Cure Rights. If Tenant shall serve Landlord with any notice claiming a default or breach of this Lease Agreement by Landlord, Tenant shall serve a duplicate of said notice upon each Fee Mortgagee, provided that Tenant has received the name and address of such Fee Mortgagees. The Fee Mortgagees shall be permitted to correct or remedy the breach or default complained of within a reasonable time after the expiration of Landlord’s time to do so and with the same effect as if Landlord itself had done so.
ARTICLE 18
Default; Termination
18.01. Default by Tenant. Tenant shall create, and there shall exist, an event of default (herein called an “Event of Default”) under this Lease Agreement if:
(A) Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of Base Rent required to be paid by Tenant within ten (10) days after the same shall become due for payment; or
(B) Tenant shall fail in any material respect to perform or comply with any other obligation of Tenant under this Lease Agreement, and such failure is not performed or corrected within thirty (30) days after notice of such default from Landlord (or, if such failure is
-22-
not capable of being performed or corrected within such thirty (30) day period, if Tenant shall not commence the correction of such default within thirty (30) days after notice of such default from Landlord and proceed with due diligence to complete such correction within a reasonable time, but in no event longer than ninety (90) days from the notice of such default); or
(C) Tenant shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if Tenant’s interest in the Premises is sold upon execution or other legal process; or
(D) Tenant shall suffer a receiver to be appointed in any action or proceeding by or against Tenant, and such appointment is not stayed or discharged within sixty (60) days after the commencement thereof, or if Tenant is a debtor in any insolvency proceeding conducted pursuant to the laws of any state or of a political subdivision of any state and such proceeding is not stayed or discharged within sixty (60) days after the commencement thereof, or if Tenant shall be or become, either voluntarily or involuntarily, a debtor in any case commenced under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, as amended, and such case is not stayed or discharged within sixty (60) days after the commencement thereof.
18.02. Rights of Landlord upon Tenant’s Default. In the event that Tenant shall create or suffer an Event of Default under this Lease Agreement, in addition to the other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder, in equity or at law, Landlord, at its option, shall have the following remedies:
(A) Without cancelling or terminating this Lease Agreement or the Lease Term, Landlord shall have the right to repossess the Premises and terminate all rights of Tenant with respect to the Premises and the Common Use Facilities, to possess the Premises and the Fixtures and each and every part thereof and to expel Tenant therefrom and to endeavor to relet all or any part of the Premises from time to time for any unexpired part of the Lease Term. In the event of such repossession and reletting by Landlord, Landlord may collect the rents from any such reletting, applying the same first to the payment of reasonable expenses of such repossession and reletting (the “Reletting Expenses”, which shall include attorneys’ fees, brokerage fees, expenses for redecoration, alterations and other costs in connection with preparing the Premises for new tenants) and then as a credit against the Base Rent and additional charges due or to become due from Tenant under this Lease Agreement, with Tenant to pay to Landlord each month following any such repossession by Landlord any deficiency between Base Rent and other sums due and payable hereunder by Tenant for such month and the amount of any rent (net of Reletting Expenses) collected by Landlord during such month from any reletting tenant. Except as expressly provided in this Section 18.02(A), neither such termination of the right of Tenant to occupy the Premises, nor such repossession and possession by Landlord, shall relieve Tenant from its obligations to pay Base Rent and all other amounts payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease Agreement, and/or to perform and observe all of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease Agreement.
(B) Landlord shall have the right to cancel and terminate this Lease Agreement and the Lease Term at any time (including any time after Landlord has elected to terminate Tenant’s right of possession as provided in subsection 18.02(A) of this Lease Agreement), which termination shall not impair in any manner Landlord’s right to recover from Tenant any damages arising as a consequence of an Event of Default hereunder or such termination of this Lease Agreement; provided that, in no event shall Tenant be liable for consequential, indirect or punitive damages.
-23-
18.03. Landlord Right To Cure Tenant Defaults. If Tenant shall create or suffer an Event of Default under this Lease Agreement, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) cure such default on behalf of Tenant (without thereby waiving any of the rights otherwise afforded to Landlord under Article 18 of this Lease Agreement by reason of such default), and the amount of the reasonable cost to Landlord of curing any such default shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate equal to the “prime rate” of Bank of America (as such rate is announced or disclosed from time to time), plus four percent (4%) (the “Default Rate”), or at the maximum rate of interest permitted by law if less than the Default Rate, from the date or dates of payment thereof by Landlord.
ARTICLE 19
Surrender
Upon the exercise by Landlord of its right to obtain possession of the Premises upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, or upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease Agreement, Tenant shall (i) surrender the Premises to Landlord, with all improvements, parts and surfaces thereof clean and free of debris and in good operating order, condition and state of repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted and (ii) appropriately effect, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws, the closure of all Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) storage areas in and on the Premises and/or the Common Use Facilities (and such other areas in and on the Premises and/or the Common Use Facilities which should have been designated and permitted as RCRA storage areas in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws) wherein Tenant or its Affiliates caused, suffered or permitted the storage of Hazardous Waste either prior to or during the Lease Term.
ARTICLE 20
Quiet Enjoyment
Landlord covenants with and warrants and represents to Tenant that, so long as no Event of Default occurs or exists hereunder, and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Tenant shall, at all times during the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises, without hindrance or molestation by Landlord or by any Person claiming rights through Landlord in respect of the Premises, other than rights created by Tenant; provided that, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, at Tenant’s request, the Premises include certain portions of the Air Park (in particular, Building Nos. 1025, 1025A, 1026, 1026A and Bond Financed Property improvements to Building 2061, being collectively herein called the “Bond-Related Premises”) which were not part of the premises leased under the ABX Sublease, which constitute part of the Bond Financed Property and which are subject to the terms and conditions of the DMCPA Ground Lease, the WAP Lease, the WAP/CCPA Sublease and the rights of the Trustee in connection with the Bonds (including, without limitation, under the Trust Indenture and the certain Assignment of Rights Under Lease dated February 1, 2007 and recorded in Book
-24-
688, Page 668, Recorder’s Office, Clinton County, Ohio); provided that, in the event that as a consequence of the exercise of rights by DMCPA, WAP, or the Trustee under any or all of the foregoing documents, all or any portion of the Bond-Related Premises are effectively severed from the Premises under this Lease Agreement, then Base Rent hereunder will be reduced to reflect such reduced area of the Premises and will be determined by multiplying the Annual Base Rent then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet contained in the Premises after such severance and the denominator of which shall be 500,000, and such reduced Base Rent will become effective upon the date of such severance.
ARTICLE 21
Inspection
Landlord and its duly authorized representatives may enter the Premises at all reasonable times, upon at least twenty-four (24) hours’ prior written notice to Tenant (or, in the event of an emergency, such notice as may be reasonable under the circumstances), to view and inspect the Premises and to inspect all repairs, additions and alterations or to perform any work which may be necessary by reason of Tenant’s default under the terms of this Lease Agreement; provided, that any such inspections shall not unreasonably interfere with the activities of Tenant or its agents or contractors in or on the Premises, nor cause or result in any damage to the Premises.

-27-
other provisions shall remain in full force and effect, and it is the intention of Landlord and of Tenant that if any provision of this Lease Agreement is susceptible of two or more constructions, one of which would render the provision valid and the other or others of which would render the provision invalid, then such provision shall have a meaning which renders it valid.
24.10. Amendments in Writing; Annexes. No officer, employee, or other servant or agent of Landlord or of Tenant is authorized to make any representation, warranty, or other promise not contained in this Lease Agreement in respect of the subject matter hereof.

Tenant will cooperate with Landlord in connection with any security conducted by or on behalf of Landlord in connection with the Air Park.
24.13. Miscellaneous Requirements.
In connection with its use and occupancy of the Premises, Tenant hereby agrees as follows:
| (A) | Tenant understands and agrees that nothing herein contained will be construed to grant or authorize the granting of an exclusive right to provide aeronautical services to the public as prohibited by 49 USC 40103(e), as amended, and Landlord reserves the right to grant to others the privilege and right of conducting any one or all activities of an aeronautical nature; |
| (B) | Tenant agrees to comply with the notification and requirements covered in Part 77 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (to the extent applicable to Tenant and to the extent Landlord notifies Tenant of such applicability) in the event any future structure or building is planned for the Premises, or in the event of any planned modification or alteration of any present or future building or structure situated on the Premises; |
| (C) | Landlord reserves for the use and benefit of the public, a right of flight for the passage of aircraft in the airspace above the surface of the Premises. This public right of flight will include the right to cause in said airspace |
-28-
| any noise inherent in the operation of any aircraft used for navigation or flight through the said airspace or landing at, taking off from, or operation on the Air Park; and |
| (D) | Tenant agrees that it will not make use of the Premises in any manner which might interfere with the landing and taking off of aircraft from the Air Park or otherwise constitute a hazard. In the event the aforesaid covenant is breached, Landlord reserves the right to enter upon the Premises and cause the abatement of such interference at the expense of Tenant. |
In addition, Landlord contemplates that, reasonably promptly after the Effective Date, Landlord will enter into discussions with the FAA and other pertinent governmental authorities for, and plans to make application for, such governmental grants, loans and/or other funds as may be available to assist Landlord in the ongoing operation, development and/or improvement of the Air Park (the “Government Funding”). In connection therewith, and in particular in connection with any FAA-related funding programs, Landlord is advised that the owners and tenants of the Air Park will be subjected to certain government-mandated requirements regarding the use and operation of the Air Park, including the provisions hereinafter set forth (collectively, the “Funding Requirements”). Accordingly, in connection with any Government Funding obtained by Landlord, Landlord shall provide to Tenant copies of the pertinent Government Funding agreements which give rise to the pertinent Funding Requirements and, thereupon, Tenant shall comply with the following provisions if, and to the extent included in such Funding Requirements and disclosed to Tenant, and such other Funding Requirements, if any, as may be agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant:
| (1) | In the event facilities are constructed, maintained, or otherwise operated on the Premises, Tenant will maintain and operate such facilities and services in compliance with all requirements imposed pursuant to 49 CFR Part 21, Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs of the Department of Transportation, and as said Regulations may be amended; |
| (2) | Tenant covenants and agrees that: (1) no Person, on the grounds of race, color or national origin, will be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination in, the use of the Premises; (2) in the construction of any leasehold improvements on, over or under the Premises and the furnishing of services thereon, no Person on the grounds of race, color or national origin will be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination by Tenant; and (3) Tenant will use the Premises in compliance with all other requirements imposed by or pursuant to 49 CFR Part 21, Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs of the Department of Transportation, and as said Regulations may be amended; |
| (3) | Tenant agrees to furnish service on a fair, equal and not unjustly discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and to charge fair, reasonable and not unjustly discriminatory prices for each unit or service; provided, that Tenant may be allowed to make reasonable and nondiscriminatory discounts, rebates or other similar types of price reductions to volume purchasers; |
-29-
| (4) | Tenant assures that it will undertake an affirmative action program as required by 14 CFR Part 152, Subpart E, to insure that no person will on the grounds of race, creed, color, national origin or sex be excluded from participating in any employment activities covered by 14 CFR Part 152, Subpart E. Tenant assures that no person will be excluded on these grounds from participating in or receiving the services or benefits of any program or activity covered by 14 CFR Part 152, Subpart E. Tenant assures that it will require that its covered suborganizations provide assurances to Landlord that they similarly will undertake affirmative action programs, and that they will require assurances from their suborganizations, as required by 14 CFR Part 152, Subpart E, to the same effect; and |
| (5) | Tenant agrees that it will insert the above four provisions in any lease, sublease or other such document by which Tenant grants a right or privilege to any person, firm or corporation to render accommodations and/or services to the public on the Premises. |
24.14. Survival. The provisions of this Lease Agreement shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease Agreement for so long as either party bears any liability or responsibility hereunder and until such time as Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, shall have realized upon all of their respective rights or exercised all of their respective remedies hereunder.
24.15 Tenant Termination Right. Subsequent to the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Date, and in the event that Tenant and/or its Affiliates no longer are providing aircraft maintenance services for DHL Network Operations (USA), Inc. and/or its Affiliates at the Air Park encompassing at least ten (10) aircraft (the “Termination Condition”), then, Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Lease Agreement by giving written notice to Landlord of the election to so terminate this Lease Agreement together with documentation which reasonably supports the Termination Condition (the “Section 24.15 Termination Notice”); whereupon, this Lease Agreement shall terminate effective on the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day following the date upon which the Section 24.15 Termination Notice is given.
