Manager shall approve or disapprove such use in writing in advance; subject, however, to any
appropriate adjustment in Base Rent and/or Percentage Rent on account of such Operation as the
parties shall mutually agree upon (with each party acting reasonably and in good faith). For

safety of operations, the Tenant may: (i) require any aircraft owner or operator to obtain
scheduling clearance from the Heliport at least six (6) business hours in advance of any
anticipated landing (except in case of emergency landing), takeoff or use of aircraft parking
space (which clearance shall be available by facsimile, telephone or radio during Heliport's
scheduled operating hours); and (ii) if any aircraft, boat or other vehicle ("Obstructing Vehicle")

implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialman for
the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials, for any specific work on the

ARTICLE XV
ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBLETTING
Section 15.1 Assignment and Subletting of Subleased Premises. Except as
specifically provided in Article XVI and Section 15.2 below, the Tenant shall not, at any time
during the Term of this Sublease, transfer, assign or sublet this Sublease, the teiui or estate
hereby granted, or any interest hereunder, nor enter into any license or concession agreements
with respect thereto, nor permit any third party or parties other than the Tenant, its authorized
agents, employees, invitees and visitors to occupy the Subleased Premises or any portion thereof
-(hereinafter individually and collectively referred to as a "Transfer") without first procuring the
written consent of the Authority, which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in the
sole discretion of the Authority. Any such attempted or purported Transfer, without the
Authority's prior written consent, shall be void and of no force or effect, shall not confer any
interest or estate in the purported transferee ("Transferee"), shall constitute a default under this
Sublease and shall permit the Authority, at its election, to terminate this Sublease.
It is agreed that all terns and conditions of this Sublease shall extend to and be binding
on all Transferees as may be approved by the Authority. Unless released by the Authority or
released under Section 15.4, the Tenant shall be liable for acts and omissions by any Transferee
affecting this Sublease. The Authority reserves the right to directly terminate any Transferee for
any cause for which the Tenant may be terminated.
The Tenant shall reimburse to the Authority, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, which the Authority incurs by reason of or in connection
with a Transfer, and all negotiations and actions with respect thereto, such Additional Rent to be
due and payable within thirty (30) days of receipt of a statement of such costs and expenses from
the Authority.
Section 15.2 Permitted Transfers. The Authority recognizes that the Tenant may not
operate on its own certain elements of the Heliport, i.e., Ancillary Uses. Accordingly,
notwithstanding the terms of Section 15.1, the Tenant shall be entitled to enter into licenses,
concession agreements, management agreements, employment and other similar agreements and
arrangements with a Transferee for the purpose of implementing any use, operation or activity
permitted under this Sublease, without the consent of the Authority. By way of example (and not
limitation), the Tenant may enter into a separate license, concession or operating agreement with
•31
a third party for the purpose of operating any of the Ancillary Uses without the consent of the
Authority, so long as the agreement governing the relationship of the Tenant and such party (i)
automatically terminates if this Sublease is terminated for any reason, (ii) requires such party to
carry insurance customary for similar operators and operations and shall list the Authority and
City as Additional Insureds, (iii) is subordinate to this Sublease, and (iv) provides a service
expressly permitted under this Sublease. If requested by the Authority, the Tenant shall provide
to the Authority copies of all sub -subleases, licenses, concession agreements, management
agreements, employment and .other similar agreements, and amendments thereto.
Section 15.3 Acceptance of Rent from Transferee. The acceptance by the Authority
of the payment of Rent following any Transfer prohibited by this Article XV shall not be deemed
to be a consent by the Authority to any such Transfer, nor shall the same be deemed to be a
waiver of any right or remedy of the Authority hereunder.
Section 15.4 No Release of Tenant. Any assignment, sub -sublease, pledge,
encumbrance of this Sublease or Transfer in violation of this Sublease or without the Authority's
prior written consent (when consent is required under the terms hereof), shall at the option of the
Authority, constitute a default of this Sublease. A Transfer of all of the Tenant's interest under
this Sublease permitted by this Article XV and approved by the Authority shall release the
Tenant from the obligation to pay the Minimum Base Rent and/or Percentage Rent, Additional
Rent and to perform all other obligations of the Tenant under this Sublease. The Authority's
acceptance of Rent from any other person is not a waiver of any provision of this Article XV.
Consent to one transfer is not a consent to any subsequent transfer. If the Tenant's Transferee
defaults under this Sublease and the Tenant has not otherwise been released from liability
hereunder, the Authority may proceed directly against the Tenant without pursuing remedies
against the Transferee, or against the Transferee and then also proceed directly against the
Tenant under this Sublease. Any action by the Authority against the Tenant shall not release the
Transferee. The Authority may consent to subsequent Transfers or modifications of this
Sublease by the Tenant's Transferee, without notifying the Tenant or obtaining its consent. Such
action shall not relieve the Tenant's liability under this Sublease or the liability of the Transferee.
Section 15.5 Event of Bankruptcy. If this Sublease is assigned to any person or entity
pursuant to the provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. or any
successor thereto (the "Bankruptcy Code"), any and all monies or other consideration payable or
otherwise to be delivered in connection with such assignment shall be paid or delivered to the
Authority, shall be and remain the exclusive property of the Authority, and shall not constitute
the property of the Tenant or of the estate of the Tenant within the meaning of the Bankruptcy
Code. Any and all monies or other considerations constituting the Authority's property under
this Section not paid or delivered to the Authority shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Authority and shall be promptly paid or delivered to the Authority. Any person or entity to
which this Sublease is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be
deemed without further act or deed to have assumed all of the obligations arising under this
Sublease on and after the date of such assignment. Any use of the Subleased Premises in
violation of the provisions of this Sublease shall result in the immediate, automatic termination
of this Sublease, it being the intent of this agreement that the Subleased Premises be used
exclusively for the purposes herein authorized and as permitted under the Deed Restrictions.

ARTICLE XVI
MORTGAGE FINANCING, RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEE
Section 16.1 Leasehold Mortgages. The Tenant, and any successor or assign of the
Tenant, may, from time to time pledge, mortgage or encumber the Leasehold Estate and any
other.. interests of the Tenant under this Sublease to a Leasehold Mortgagee. Any such pledge,
mortgage or encumbrance upon the Leasehold Estate demised hereunder, as the same may be
extended, modified, amended or replaced, is herein referred to as a "Leasehold Mortgage." The
Tenant's right to place a Leasehold Mortgage against the Tenant's leasehold estate is subject to
the Tenant not being in default under this Sublease at the time a Leasehold Mortgage is made.
Any Leasehold Mortgage shall by its terms be made expressly subject to all of the Authority's
rights under the provisions, covenants, conditions, exceptions and reservations herein contained.
The Leasehold Mortgage documents shall expressly provide that the Leasehold Mortgagee notify
the Authority of default by the Tenant under the Leasehold Mortgage prior to commencing
foreclosure proceedings. The Authority shall not be bound to recognize any Leasehold
Mortgagee or to give any Leasehold Mortgagee the notices, rights and protections contemplated
under this Sublease unless such Leasehold Mortgagee or the Tenant shall have notified the
Authority of the existence of such Leasehold Mortgage and of the name and United States
address of such Leasehold Mortgagee.
The Tenant shall deliver to the Authority promptly after execution by the Tenant a true
and verified copy of any Leasehold Mortgage, and/or any amendment, modification or extension
thereof, together with the name and address of the owner and holder thereof. The Tenant may
not encumber the Leasehold Estate as security for any indebtedness of the Tenant the proceeds of
which are used to finance any other property (i.e. other than the Subleased Premises) now or
hereinafter owned or operated by the Tenant.
Section 16.2 Rights of Leasehold Mortgagees. The Authority hereby agrees with and
for the benefit of each Leasehold Mortgagee and the successors and assigns of each Leasehold
Mortgagee:
(a) When giving notice to the Tenant with respect to any default under
this Sublease or any exercise of any right to terminate this Sublease, the Authority, if so
requested by a Leasehold Mortgagee under Section 16.1 above, will also give a copy of
such notice to each Leasehold Mortgagee at the address of each Leasehold Mortgagee
furnished to the Authority, and no such notice to the Tenant shall be deemed to have been
duly given nor shall such noticebe effective unless such notice is also given in said
manner to each such Leasehold Mortgagee.
(b) In case the Tenant shall default in respect of any of the provisions
of this Sublease, any Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
cure such default whether the same consists of the failure to pay Minimum Base Rent
and/or Percentage Rent or the failure to perfoiin any other covenant which the Tenant is
required to perform under this Sublease, and the Authority shall accept perfoiniance by or
on behalf of such Leasehold Mortgagee as though, and with the same effect as if, the
33
same had been done or performed by the Tenant. A Leasehold Mortgagee will have a
period of time after the service of such notice upon it within which to cure the default
specified in such notice, or cause it to be cured, which is the same period for cure, if any,
as is given to the Tenant under this Sublease in respect of the specified default after the
giving of such notice to the Tenant, plus an additional period of thirty (30) days. In the
event of a default (or in the event that the Authority is seeking to terminate this Sublease
by reason of a default) which is curable without Leasehold Mortgagee being in
possession and control of the Heliport, but cannot reasonably be cured within said period,
the period of time for cure shall be extended for so long as any Leasehold Mortgagee is
diligently and continuously proceeding to attempt to cure such default, provided that the
Leasehold Mortgagee has begun proceedings to cure the default within said period. In no
event shall a default due to a failure to pay Minimum Base Rent and/or Percentage Rent
or Additional Rent be deemed a default which cannot be reasonably cured within such
additional period of thirty (30) days.
(c) With respect to any nonmonetary default by the Tenant under this
Sublease that is not susceptible of being cured by the Leasehold Mortgagee without being
in possession and control of the Heliport , the Authority shall take no action to terminate
this Sublease on account of such default if, within ninety (90) days after notice of the
default from the Authority (subject to any bankruptcy stays), the Leasehold Mortgagee
shall have commenced appropriate proceedings to obtain possession of the Subleased
Premises (including possession by a receiver) or to foreclose the Leasehold Mortgage or
otherwise to acquire the Tenant's interest under this Sublease and the Subleased
Premises, and shall thereafter be prosecuting the same to completion in good faith, with
diligence and continuity (subject to any bankruptcy stays); provided, however, that: (i)
the Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be obligated to continue any such possession or to
continue such foreclosure proceedings or other action after the default shall have been
cured; (ii) the Authority shall not be precluded from exercising any rights or remedies
with respect to any other default by the Tenant under this Sublease during the pendency
of such foreclosure proceedings; (iii) during the period of the Authority's forbearance,
the Leasehold Mortgagee shall comply with such of the terms, covenants and conditions
of this Sublease as are then susceptible of compliance by the Leasehold Mortgagee; (iv) if
and after the Leasehold Mortgagee obtains possession of the Subleased Premises or
acquires the Tenant's interest under this Sublease, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall
promptly commence and diligently pursue the curing of all defaults under this Sublease
then susceptible of being cured by the Leasehold Mortgagee, and all other defaults of the
Tenant not then susceptible of being cured by the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be deemed
to have been waived by the Authority upon completion of such foreclosure proceedings
or acquisition by the Leasehold Mortgagee; and (v) if a.,third party acquires the Tenant's
interest under this Sublease at the foreclosure sale, such party shall promptly commence
and diligently pursue the curing of all defaults under this Sublease then susceptible of
being cured by such party, and all other defaults of the Tenant not then susceptible of
being cured by such party shall be deemed to have been waived by the Authority upon
such acquisition.
34
(d) A Leasehold Mortgagee (or its designee or nominee) may become
the legal owner and holder of the interest of the Tenant under this Sublease, including,
without limitation, ownership of the Heliport, by foreclosure or other enforcement
proceedings, or by obtaining an assignment of this Sublease in lieu of foreclosure or
through settlement of or arising out of any pending or threatened foreclosure proceeding,
without the Authority's consent, subject always to' the applicable terms and provisions of
this Sublease.
(e) The Authority agrees that in the event of termination of this
Sublease for any reason (other than a default by the Tenant beyond the applicable cure
period, for which Leasehold Mortgagee was provided notice and an opportunity to cure in
accordance with this Article), that the Authority will enter into a new lease of the
Subleased Premises with Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee for the remainder of the
Tenn, effective as of the date of such termination, at the rent and upon the terms,
provisions, covenants and agreements as herein contained, provided:
(i) Leasehold Mortgagee, or its designee, shall make written
request upon the Authority for such new lease within thirty (30) days after the Authority
has given Leasehold Mortgagee notice of such termination.
(ii) Said written request shall be accompanied by payment of
all past due rents and other charges owing to the Authority hereunder of which Leasehold
Mortgagee shall have been given notice, and, thereafter such monetary obligations shall
be maintained current through the time of the execution and delivery of said new lease.
(iii) The lessee under such new lease shall automatically have
the same right, title and interest in and to the Subleased Premises as the Tenant had under
the terminated Sublease.
(iv) The new lease does not violate the Deed Restrictions.
(f) The Authority agrees, promptly after submission, to execute,
acknowledge and deliver any agreements modifying this Sublease and the Development
Agreement requested by any Leasehold Mortgagee, provided that such modifications do
not decrease the Tenant's obligations, or increase the Tenant's rights, or decrease the
Authority's rights.
(g) The provisions of this Article XVI in favor of the Leasehold
Mortgagee shall inure to the benefit of the Leasehold Mortgagee and its successors,
assigns and designees, and also any other, purchaser or transferee of this Sublease
pursuant to any foreclosure or bankruptcy proceedings, or assignment in lieu thereof.
(h) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Sublease, the
Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be liable or responsible in any respect for any of the
Tenant's obligations under this Sublease unless and until the Leasehold Mortgagee
becomes the owner and holder of this Sublease through foreclosure or bankruptcy
proceedings, or assignment in lieu thereof.
35
Section 16.3 Notices to/from Leasehold Mortgagees. Any notice or other
communication which the Authority shall desire or is required to give to or serve upon Leasehold
Mortgagee shall be in writing and shall be served personally or by overnight courier service
(such as Federal Express or UPS) addressed to such Leasehold Mortgagee at its address as set
forth in the notice to the Authority, or at such other address as shall be designated from time to
time by such holder by notice in writing given to the Authority. Any notice or other
communication which any Leasehold Mortgagee shall .desire or is required to give to or serve
upon the Authority shall be deemed to have been given or served if sent as set forth in the
provisions of this Sublease providing for notices to the Authority.
ARTICLE XVII

right or power, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence in it.

the Authority to exercise properly any rights given hereunder shall not operate to forfeit any of
the said rights.
Section 23.2 Waiver of Remedies Not To Be Inferred. No waiver of any breach of

Section 24.1 Surrender at End of Teiui. On the last day of the Tenn, the Tenant shall

encumbrances and claims. If the Subleased Premises are not so surrendered, the Tenant shall
repay the Authority for all expenses which the Authority shall incur by reason of it, and in

provisions of this Article XXIV shall not be held to be a waiver by the Authority of any right of
entry or reentry as set forth in this Sublease, nor shall the receipt of a sum, or any other act in
apparent affirmance of the tenancy, reinstate, continue or extend the Term or otherwise limited
or affect any other remedies available to the Authority hereunder.

Tenant entering into this Sublease.
Section 25.7 Severability. If any provision of this Sublease, or any paragraph,
sentence, clause, phrase, or word, or the application thereof, is held invalid, the remainder of this

45
but for the above waiver, the Authority shall confirm in writing to such party that the Authority
waives and does not have rights to a lien against such property.

with this Sublease, or any other matters contemplated herein.

represent the total agreement between parties with respect to the matters stated herein and
therein. All other prior agreements between the parties relating to the Tenant's Iease of the
Subleased Premises, either verbal or written, are superseded by this Sublease and the
