ninety (90) days.
4. The default of the Lessor in the performance of any covenant or agreement herein
required to be performed by the Lessor and the failure of the Lessor to remedy such
S.E. CONE, JR. LEASE AGREEMENT
PAGE 19
default for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt from Lessee of written notice to
remedy the same.
5. With regard to the Eastport Northernmost Hangar and the associated ground, upon sixty
(60) days written notice by Lessee to Lessor. Upon the effective date of such
termination, all rent associated with such buildings shall terminate.
Lessee may exercise such right of termination by giving sixty (60) days advance written notice to
the Lessor at any time after the lapse of the applicable periods of time and this lease shall
terminate as of the sixtieth (60`h) day after such notice is given. Rental due hereunder shall be
payable only to the effective date of said termination.
7.03 TERMINATION BY LESSOR
This lease shall be subject to cancellation by Lessor after the happening of one or more of the
following events:
1. The taking by a court of competent jurisdiction of Lessee and its assets pursuant to
proceedings brought under the provisions of any federal reorganization act.
2. The appointment of a receiver for Lessee's assets.
3. The divestiture of Lessee's assets by other operation of law.
4. The abandonment by Lessee of the premises at the Airport for a period of thirty (30) days
or more.
5. The failure by Lessee to pay any rentals or other charges hereunder after notice as
specified above.
6. The default by Lessee in the performance of any covenant or agreement herein required
to be performed by Lessee and the failure of Lessee to remedy such default for a period
S.E. CONE, JR. LEASE AGREEMENT
PAGE 20
of fifteen (15) days after receipt from the Lessor's Director of Aviation of written notice
to remedy the same.
7. The Lessee's breach of any provision contained in Article Four, of this lease.
8. The lawful assumption by the United States Government, or any authorized agency
thereof, of the operation, control or use of the Airport, or any substantial part or parts
thereof, in such a manner as to substantially restrict Lessee for a period of at least ninety
(90) days from operating thereon.
If any of the aforesaid events occur, Lessor's agents may enter upon the Leased Premises and
take immediate possession of the same and remove Lessee's effects. Upon said entry this lease
shall terminate, and any rental due hereunder shall be payable to said date of termination.
It is agreed that failure to declare this lease terminated upon the default of Lessee for any of the
reasons set forth above shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the Lessor's rights hereunder
or otherwise bar or preclude Lessor from declaring this lease cancelled as a result of any
subsequent violation of any of the terms or conditions of this lease.
7.04 REPLACEMENT AFTER DAMAGE
It is agreed between the parties hereto that in the event the Leased Premises are damaged by fire
or other accidental cause during the initial term of this lease so as to become totally or partially
untenantable, the Lessor shall have the option to restore the Premises to their former condition.
If the Lessor elects to exercise the option, the Lessor shall give Lessee notice in writing of its
election within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such damage. If the Lessor elects to restore
the premises, the Lessor shall proceed with due diligence and there shall be an abatement of the
rent until repairs have been made for the time and to the extent for which the premises, or part
thereof, have been untenantable. Should the Lessor not exercise the option to restore the
S.E. CONE, JR. LEASE AGREEMENT
PAGE 21
premises, the lease of such untenantable portion of the premises shall cease and terminate
effective on the date of damage by fire or other accidental cause.
7.05 CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The Lessee acknowledges that it is informed that Texas law prohibits contracts between the City
of Lubbock and its "officers" and "employees," and that the prohibition extends to officers and
employees of the City of Lubbock agencies, such as Lessor -owned utilities, and certain City of
Lubbock boards and commissions, and to contract with any partnership, corporation or other
organization in which the officers or employees have a substantial interest. Lessee certifies (and
this Agreement is made in reliance thereon) that neither the Lessee nor any person having an
interest in this Agreement is an officer or employee of the City of Lubbock or any of its
agencies, boards or commissions.
7.06 PROPERTY PERMANENTLY AFFIXED TO PREMISES
Any property belonging to Lessee which becomes permanently attached to the Leased Premises
(except trade fixtures) shall become the property of the Lessor upon termination of this
Agreement, whether upon expiration of the initial term, any extension thereof, or earlier under
any provision of this lease.
7.07 REMOVAL OF LESSEE'S PROPERTY
The Lessee shall have the right, within thirty (30) days after the termination of this lease,
whether such termination comes upon expiration of the initial term, any extension or otherwise
under any provision of this lease, to remove from the leased premises all of Lessee's furniture,
fixtures, equipment, furnishings, and other property which has not become the property of the
Lessor, but Lessee shall restore the premises to the original condition, normal wear and tear
excepted. The Lessor, however, shall have a lien on all of Lessee's property to secure any
S.E. CONE, JR. LEASE AGREEMENT
PAGE 22
unpaid rentals or other revenue due the Lessor; and Lessee's right to remove property from the
Leased Premises is conditioned upon all amounts due the Lessor from Lessee having been paid
in full. Unless a renewal agreement is executed, property left on the premises after ten (10) days
from the date of termination of this agreement shall be deemed abandoned and will become the
property of the Lessor, and may be disposed of as the Lessor sees fit, without any liability to the
Lessee to account for the proceeds of any sale; and the Lessor, at its option, may require Lessee
to remove the abandoned property and may charge rent from the date of expiration or
termination of this Agreement through the day of final removal of the property, or of notification
to the Lessee of the abandonment of the property and taking by the Lessor, as the case may be.
7.08 TERMINATION OF LEASE, SURRENDER OF LEASED PREMISES AND
OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS
The Lessee covenants and agrees that at the expiration of the initial term of this lease, or any
extension, or upon earlier termination as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, Lessee will quit
and surrender the Leased Premises and the improvements in good state and condition, reasonable
wear and tear expected, and the Lessor shall have the right to take possession of the Leased
Premises and the improvements, subject to the limitations expressed in Article Seven, of this
lease, with or without process of law.
7.09 HOLDING OVER
In the event Lessee remains in possession of the Leased Premises after the expiration of this
Agreement or any extension thereof, without any written renewal or extension of the Agreement,
such holding over shall not be deemed as a renewal or extension of this Lease, and may be
terminated at any time by the Director of Aviation of Lessor.
