Box 648, Parker, Colorado 80134 Lessee: CITY OF LUBBOCK Address: P.O. Box 2000, Lubbock, Texas 79457 Lessor agrees to lease to Lessee and Lessee agrees to lease from Lessor, the items of Equipment (the "Equipment") described in Exhibit A attached to this Equipment Lease - Purchase Agreement (the "Lease"), upon the following terms and conditions: 1. Delivery and Acceptance. Lessee, or if Lessee so requests, Lessor, will cause the Equipment to be delivered to Lessee at the location specified in Exhibit A (the "Equipment Location"). Lessee will pay all transportation and other costs, if any, incurred in connection with the delivery of the Equipment. Lessee will accept the Equipment as soon as it has been delivered and is operational, or in the event that the manufacturer or vendor allows a pre - acceptance test period, as soon as the test period has expired. Lessee will evidence its acceptance of the Equipment by executing and delivering to Lessor an Acceptance Certificate (herein so called) in the form provided by Lessor. 2. Term. This Lease will become effective upon the execution hereof by Lessor. The term of this Lease will commence on the date the Equipment is accepted pursuant to Section 1 above and, unless earlier terminated as expressly provided for in this Lease, will continue until the Expiration Date set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto (hereinafter the "Lease Term"). 3. Rent. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor or its assignee the Lease Payments (herein so called), including the interest portion, equal to the amounts specified in Exhibit B. The Lease Payments will be payable without notice or demand at the office of the Lessor (or such other place as Lessor or its assignee may from time to time designate in writing), and will commence on the first Lease Payment date as set forth in Exhibit B and thereafter on the dates set forth in Exhibit B. Any payments received later than ten (10) days from the due date will bear interest from the due date at the highest net effective interest rate at which public securities may be issued in accordance with Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, Article 717k-2. Except as specifically provided in Section 4 hereof, the Lease Payments will be absolute and unconditional in all events and will not be subject to any set-off, defense, counterclaim, or recoupment for any reason whatsoever. Lessee reasonably believes that funds can be obtained sufficient to make all Lease Payments during the Lease Term and hereby covenants that it will do all things lawfully within its power to obtain, maintain and properly request and pursue funds from which the Lease Payments may be made, including making provisions for such payments to the extent necessary in each budget submitted for the purpose of obtaining funding, using its bona fide best efforts to have such portion of the budget approved and exhausting all available administrative reviews and appeals in the event such portion of the budget is not approved. It is Lessee's intent to make Lease Payments for the full Lease Term if funds are legally available therefor and in that regard Lessee represents that the use of the Equipment is essential to its proper, efficient and economic operation. 4. Nonappropriation of Funds. In the event no funds or insufficient funds are appropriated and budgeted or are otherwise available by any means whatsoever in any fiscal period for Lease Payments due under this Lease, then the Lessee will immediately notify the Lessor or its assignee of such occurrence and this Lease shall terminate on the last day of the fiscal period for which appropriations were received without penalty or expense to Lessee of any kind whatsoever, except as to the portions of Lease Payments herein agreed upon for which funds shall have been appropriated and budgeted or are otherwise available. In the event of such termination, Lessee agrees to peaceably surrender possession of the Equipment to Lessor or its assignee -on. _the date of such termination, packed for shipment in accordance with manufacturer specifications and freight prepaid and insured to any location in the continental United States designated by Lessor. Lessor will have all legal and equitable rights and remedies to take possession of the Equipment. Pursuant to Section 4(b) of Article 2368a.2 of Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, the governing body of Lessee reserves the continuing right to terminate this Lease at the expiration of each budget period of the Lessee during the term of this Lease in order that this Lease may be considered to be a committment of current revenues only and not in violation of Article III, Section 52, of the Texas Constitution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee agrees (i) that it will not cancel this Lease under the provisions of this Section if any funds are appropriated to it, or by it, for the acquisition, retention or operation of the Equipment or other equipment performing functions similar to the Equipment for the fiscal period in which such termination occurs, and 00 that it will' not during the Lease Term give priority in the application of funds to any other functionally similar equipment. This paragraph will not be construed so as to permit Lessee to terminate this Lease in order to acquire any other equipment or to allocate funds directly or indirectly to perform essentially the same application for which the Equipment is intended. 5. Limitation on Warranties. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the Equipment is of a size, design, and capacity selected by Lessee, that Lessor is neither a manufacturer nor a vendor of such equipment, and that LESSOR HAS NOT MADE, AND DOES NOT HEREBY MAKE, ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, CONDITION, QUALITY, DURABILITY, DESIGN, OPERATION, FITNESS FOR USE, OR SUITABILITY OF THE EQUIPMENT IN ANY RESPECT WHATSOEVER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR FOR THE PURPOSES AND USES OF LESSEE, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT THERETO, AND LESSOR SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED OR LIABLE FOR ACTUAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHER DAMAGES OF OR TO LESSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND THE MAINTENANCE THEREOF.

Lessee agrees that (i) it will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep the Lease in full force and effect, (ii) it has complied with all bidding requirements where necessary and by due notification presented this Lease for approval and adoption as a valid obligation on its part, and (iii) it has sufficient appropriations or other funds available to pay all amounts due hereunder for the current fiscal period. 7.

If Lessor determines that any item of Equipment is lost, stolen, destroyed or damaged beyond repair, .Lessee at the option of Lessor will: either (e) replace the same with like equipment in good repair; or (b) on the next Lease Payment date, pay Lessor: (i) all amounts then owed by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease, including the Lease Payment due on such date; and (ii) an amount equal to the applicable Concluding Payment set forth in Exhibit B.

Insurance. Lessee, will, at its expense, maintain at all times during the Lease Term, fire and extended coverage, public liability and property damage insurance with respect to the Equipment in such amounts, covering such risks, and with such insurers as shall be satisfactory to Lessor or may self -insure against any or all such risks. In no event will the Insurance limits be less than the amount of the then applicable Concluding Payment with respect to such Equipment.

Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against, and hold Lessor harmless from, any and all claims, actions, proceedings, expenses, damages or liabilities, including attorney's fees and court costs, arising in connection with the Equipment, including, but not limited to, its selection, purchase, possession, use, operation and the recovery of claims under insurance policies thereon. 17. Purchase Option. Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice from Lessee to Lessor, and provided that there is no Event of Default, or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, could become an Event of Default, then existing, Lessee will have the right to purchase the Equipment on the Lease Payment dates set forth in Exhibit B by paying to Lessor, on such date, the Lease Payment then due together with the Concluding Payment amount set forth opposite such date. Upon satisfaction by Lessee of such purchase conditions, Lessor will transfer any and all of its right, title and interest in the Equipment to Lessee as is, without warranty, express or implied, except that Lessor will warrant to Lessee that the Equipment is free and clear of any liens created by Lessor. 18. Assignment.

DURING THE LEASE TERM LESSEE SHALL KEEP A COMPLETE AND ACCURATE RECORD OF ALL SUCH ASSIGNMENTS IN FORM NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, SECTION 103(j), AND THE REGULATIONS, PROPOSED OR EXISTING, FROM TIME TO TIME PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.
