nautical operations thereon, but rent due hereunder shall
be abated proportionately.

tion or other designated representative, shall have the

subjected to discrimination, including discrimination in
employment, under any program or activity of the LESSEE.
15. LESSEE acknowledges that it is informed that Texas Law

assignment or subletting shall affect LESSEE'S obliga-
tions to make all required rental payments hereunder.
18. The failure of the LESSOR to insist upon performance of
any of the terms or conditions of this Lease shall not be
construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the future
performance of any such terms or conditions, but the
LESSEE'S obligation with respect to such failure of
performance shall continue in full force and effect.
19. LESSEE shall at its sole expense provide for the adequate
sanitary handling and disposal away from the Airport of
all trash, garbage and other waste and refuse resulting
from the operation of its business.
20. In the event LESSEE remains in possession of the leased
premises after the expiration of this Agreement without
any written renewal or extension of this Lease, such
holding over shall not be deemed as a renewal or exten-
sion of this Lease, but shall create only a tenancy from
day to day which may be terminated at any time by LESSOR.
ARTICLE V
This Lease Agreement shall terminate at the end of the full
term hereof and LESSEE shall have no further right or interest in
the premises hereby demised except as provided in Article IV, num-
bered paragraph 20.
This Agreement is subject to termination for the reasons set
forth below, provided that thirty (30) days written notice is given
to the non -terminating party. Rental due hereunder shall be pay-
able only to the effective date of said termination.
A. The LESSEE may terminate upon the happening of any of the
following:
1. The permanent abandonment of the Airport as an air termi-
nal.
2. The issuance by any court of competent jurisdiction of an
injunction in any way preventing or restraining the use
of the Airport for a period of thirty (30) days or more.

or conditions of this Agreement to be kept, performed and
observed by the LESSOR, and the failure of the LESSOR to
remedy such breach for a period of sixty (60) days after
written notice from the LESSEE of the existence of such
breach.
4. The assumption by the United States Government, or any
authorized agency of the same, of the operation, control
or use of the Airport and its facilities in such a manner
as to substantially restrict the LESSEE from operating
under the terms of this Agreement for a period of three
(3) months or more.
B. The LESSOR may terminate upon the happening of any of the
following:
1. If the LESSEE shall file a voluntary petition of
bankruptcy; or if proceedings in bankruptcy shall be
instituted against LESSEE and LESSEE is thereafter
adjudicated as bankrupt pursuant to such proceedings; or
if a court shall take jurisdiction of LESSEE and its
assets pursuant to proceedings brought under the provi-
sions of any federal reorganization act; or if a receiver
- 12 -
for LESSEE'S assets is appointed; or if LESSEE shall be
divested of its rights, powers and privileges under this
Agreement by other operation of law.
2. If the LESSEE shall abandon and discontinue operations
under this Agreement.
3. If the LESSEE shall default in or fail to make any rental

States, State of Texas, City of Lubbock and Director of
Aviation of the City of Lubbock.
6. If LESSOR, acting in good faith, finds termination of the
rights, privileges and interests of LESSEE acquired under
this Lease to be necessary to secure federal financial
aid for the development of the Airport, or development of
aeronautical operations thereon.
C. In the event the leased premises are damaged by fire or
other accidental cause during the term of this Agreement so as to
become totally or partially untenantable, LESSOR shall have the
option to restore the premises to their former condition. If
LESSOR exercises its option to restore the premises, LESSOR shall
proceed with due diligence. If the damage is so extensive as to
practically amount to the total destruction of the utility of the
leased premises for the uses expressed in this Agreement, LESSEE'S
obligation to pay rent hereunder shall be abated for the time and
to the extent that the leased premises have been rendered
untenantable. Should LESSOR not exercise its option to restore the
- 13 -
leased premises, this Lease shall terminate, such termination to be
effective on the date of damage by fire or other accidental cause,
and the rent shall be apportioned to that date.
D. Within fifteen (15) days following the date of expiration
or termination of this Agreement, LESSEE shall vacate said
premises, remove all property of LESSEE and restore the leased
premises to as good a condition on such date of expiration or
termination as when received, ordinary wear and tear excepted;
provided, however, that LESSEE'S right to remove its property is
subject to the condition that LESSEE has paid in full all amounts
due and owing LESSOR under this Agreement. If, after being
requested to do so by LESSOR, the LESSEE shall fail or neglect to
remove said property and so restore the leased premises within
fifteen (15) days of said expiration or termination, then at the
option of LESSOR said property shall either become the property of
LESSOR, without compensation therefor, or LESSOR may cause the
property to be removed and the leased premises to be restored at
the expense of LESSEE, and no claim for damages against LESSOR or
its officers, agents or employees shall be created or made on ac-
count of such removal and restoration.
ARTICLE VI
1. Notices to the LESSOR required or appropriate under this
Lease shall be deemed sufficient if in writing and mailed by regis-
tered mail with postage prepaid to the Director of Aviation,
Lubbock International Airport, Route 3, Box 389, Lubbock, Texas
79401.
Notices to the LESSEE required or appropriate under this Lease
shall be deemed sufficient if in writing and mailed by registered
mail with postage prepaid to the address for Earl Horton on file
with the Director of Aviation.
- 14 -
2. Should LESSOR institute legal action to collect rent due
under this Agreement or damages for breach of any covenant made
herein, a reasonable sum shall be added to the amount of recovery
for attorneys fees together with all costs of court.
3. Both parties hereby agree that this instrument consti-
tutes the final agreement of the parties and that all other pre-
vious agreements, leases and contracts between the parties which
pertain to the property described herein are hereby declared null
and void.

responsibility for the condition of the leased premises
and shall not assume any responsibility for maintenance,
upkeep or repair necessary to keep the premises in a safe

immediate termination of this Agreement by LESSOR.

any existing or future agreement between LESSOR and the
United States pertaining to the operation and maintenance

therefor, but rent due hereunder shall be abated propor-
tionately.
4. Any rights, privileges and interests acquired herein by
LESSEE may be suspended at the option of the LESSOR
following written notice of thirty (30) days, if such
suspension is found by the LESSOR, acting in good faith,
to be necessary to secure federal financial aid for the
development of the Airport, or the development of aero-
nautical operations thereon, but rent due hereunder shall
be abated proportionately.
5. The LESSOR, acting by and through the Director of Avia-
tion or other designated representative, shall have the
right to inspect the leased premises at all reasonable
times during the term of this Lease.

City of Lubbock may be responsible, which is damaged or
destroyed incident to the exercise of the privileges
herein granted, or as a result of acts or omissions of
the employees or agents of LESSEE, shall be properly
repaired or replaced by the LESSEE to the satisfaction of
the LESSOR and its authorized representatives, or in lieu
of such repair or replacement, the LESSEE shall, if so
required by the LESSOR, pay to the LESSOR money in any
- 7 -
amount deemed sufficient by the LESSOR to compensate for
the loss sustained by the LESSOR as a result of the
damage to or destruction of such property.

tractor and operator and solely responsible for its
respective acts and omissions, and LESSOR shall in no way
be responsible therefor.

harmless the LESSOR, its authorized agents, representa-

its agents, servants, employees or business visitors
under this Agreement.
9. The LESSEE shall maintain at all times, at its sole
expense, insurance with an insurance underwriter accept-
able to the LESSOR and authorized to do business in the

tion or modification of coverage.
10. LESSEE shall furnish to the LESSOR satisfactory evidence
that LESSEE carries Workers' Compensation Insurance in
accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.
11. The LESSEE shall assume all responsibility for the pay-
ment of all taxes and assessments, license fees and

on the leased premises or which may become due on the
property of LESSEE used in connection therewith from the
date of execution of this Agreement. The LESSEE agrees

cancel this Lease upon thirty (30) days written notice to
the LESSOR.
12. LESSEE, its agents and employees will not discriminate
against any person or class of persons by reason of age,
sex, race, color, handicap, religion or national origin
in providing any services or in the use of any of its
facilities provided for the public, in any manner pro-
hibited by Federal Aviation Administration Regulations.

ances given by the City of Lubbock.

applicant for employment because of age, sex, race,
color, handicap, religion or national origin. LESSEE
further agrees to take affirmative action to insure that
applicants are employed, and that employees are treated
during employment, without regard to their age, sex,
race, color, handicap, religion or national origin. Such
action shall include, but not be limited to employment,
upgrading, demotion, transfer, recruitment, layoff, rates
of pay or other forms of compensation, and selection for

14. LESSEE will conduct its activities and operate its facil-
ities on the premises in accordance with the requirements

ticipation in, be denied the benefits of, or otherwise be
subjected to discrimination, including discrimination in
employment, under any program or activity of the LESSEE.
15. LESSEE acknowledges that it is informed that Texas Law
generally prohibits contracts between the LESSOR and its
"officers" and "employees," and that the prohibition
extends to officers and employees of City agencies such
as City -owned utilities and certain City boards and
commissions, and to contracts with any partnership,
corporation or other organization in which officers or
employees have an interest. LESSEE herein certifies that
no person having an interest in this this Lease is an
officer or employee of the City of Lubbock or any of its
agencies, boards or commissions.

employed by the LESSOR to solicit or secure this Agree-
ment in exchange for a commission, percentage, brokerage
or contingent fee.
17. LESSEE may not assign or sublet this Agreement without
the written consent of the Director of Aviation, but such
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No such
assignment or subletting shall affect LESSEE'S obliga-
tions to make all required rental payments hereunder.
18. The failure of the LESSOR to insist upon performance of
any of the terms or conditions of this Lease shall not be
construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the future
performance of any such terms or conditions, but the
LESSEE'S obligation with respect to such failure of
performance shall continue in full force and effect.
19. LESSEE shall at its sole expense provide for the adequate
sanitary handling and disposal away from the Airport of
all trash, garbage and other waste and refuse resulting
from the operation of its business.
20. In the event LESSEE remains in possession of the leased
premises after the expiration of this Agreement without
any written renewal or extension of this Lease, such
holding over shall not be deemed as a renewal or exten-
sion of this Lease, but shall create only a tenancy from
day to day which may be terminated at any time by LESSOR.
ARTICLE V
This Lease Agreement shall terminate at the end of the full
term hereof and LESSEE shall have no further right or interest in
the premises hereby demised except as provided in Article IV, num-
bered paragraph 20.
=0=
This Agreement is subject to termination for the reasons set
forth below, provided that thirty (30) days written notice is given
to the non -terminating party. Rental due hereunder shall be pay-
able only to the effective date of said termination.
A. The LESSEE may terminate upon the happening of any of the
following:
1. The permanent abandonment of the Airport as an air termi-
nal.
2. The issuance by any court of competent jurisdiction of an
injunction in any way preventing or restraining the use
of the Airport for a period of thirty (30) days or more.
3. The breach by the LESSOR of any of the terms, covenants
or conditions of this Agreement to be kept, performed and
observed by the LESSOR, and the failure of the LESSOR to
remedy such breach for a period of sixty (60) days after
written notice from the LESSEE of the existence of such
breach.
4. The assumption by the United States Government, or any
authorized agency of the same, of the operation, control
or use of the Airport and its facilities in such a manner
as to substantially restrict the LESSEE from operating
under the terms of this Agreement for a period of three
(3) months or more.
B. The LESSOR may terminate upon the happening of any of the
following:
1. If the LESSEE shall file a voluntary petition of
bankruptcy; or if proceedings in bankruptcy shall be
instituted against LESSEE and LESSEE is thereafter
adjudicated as bankrupt pursuant to such proceedings; or
if a court shall take jurisdiction of LESSEE and its
assets pursuant to proceedings brought under the provi-
sions of any federal reorganization act; or if a receiver
- 12 -
for LESSEE'S assets is appointed; or if LESSEE shall be
divested of its rights, powers and privileges under this
Agreement by other operation of law.
2. If the LESSEE shall abandon and discontinue operations
under this Agreement.
3. If the LESSEE shall default in or fail to make any rental
payments at any time and in the amounts required of
LESSEE under this Agreement.
4. If the LESSEE shall fail to perform, keep and observe all
of the covenants and conditions contained in this Agree-
ment to be performed, kept and observed by LESSEE.
5. If the LESSEE shall fail to abide by all applicable laws,
ordinances and rules and regulations of the United
States, State of Texas, City of Lubbock and Director of
Aviation of the City of Lubbock.
6. If LESSOR, acting in good faith, finds termination of the
rights, privileges and interests of LESSEE acquired under
this Lease to be necessary to secure federal financial
aid for the development of the Airport, or development of
aeronautical operations thereon.
C. In the event the leased premises are damaged by fire or
other accidental cause during the term of this Agreement so as to
become totally or partially untenantable, LESSOR shall have the
option to restore the premises to their former condition. If
LESSOR exercises its option to restore the premises, LESSOR shall
proceed with due diligence. If the damage is so extensive as to
practically amount to the total destruction of the utility of the
leased premises for the uses expressed in this Agreement, LESSEE'S
obligation to pay rent hereunder shall be abated for the time and
to the extent that the leased premises have been rendered
untenantable. Should LESSOR not exercise its option to restore the
- 13 -
leased premises, this Lease shall terminate, such termination to be
effective on the date of damage by fire or other accidental cause,
and the rent shall be apportioned to that date.
D. Within fifteen (15) days following the date of expiration
or termination of this Agreement, LESSEE shall vacate said
premises, remove all property of LESSEE and restore the leased
premises to as good a condition on such date of expiration or
termination as when received, ordinary wear and tear excepted;
provided, however, that LESSEE'S right to remove its property is
subject to the condition that LESSEE has paid in full all amounts
due and owing LESSOR under this Agreement. If, after being
requested to do so by LESSOR, the LESSEE shall fail or neglect to
remove said property and so restore the leased premises within
fifteen (15) days of said expiration or termination, then at the
option of LESSOR said property shall either become the property of
LESSOR, without compensation therefor, or LESSOR may cause the
property to be removed and the leased premises to be restored at
the expense of LESSEE, and no claim for damages against LESSOR or
its officers, agents or employees shall be created or made on ac-
count of such removal and restoration.
