I. RECITALS A. The City owns and operates the Renton Municipal Airport ("Airport") B. Under two lease agreements with the City, Kaynan, Inc. ("Kaynan") leased premises on the Airport since 1984 (City file no. LAG 003-84) and 1985 (City file no. LAG 011-85) (the two leases are hereinafter the "Leases"). The leased premises were located in the Airport's southeast corner, addressed as 350 Airport Way (the "Premises"). C. The Premises are developed with five buildings and include hangar space. Kaynan subleased a portion of the premises to Occupant. During the terms of the Leases, Occupant was a tenant of Kaynan and was not a tenant of the City. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a copy of Occupant's lease with Kaynan for a portion of the Premises. D. The Leases had termination dates in 2016, but Kaynan remained on the Premises on a month -to -month term after the termination date while Kaynan and the City negotiated a new lease. In 2018, Kaynan elected to end negotiations for a new lease, and the Leases formally terminated on October 1, 2018. Thus, between the mid-1980s and October 1, 2018, Kaynan controlled the Premises. In anticipation of the October 1, 2018, termination date, the City engaged a consultant, Martyn Daniel LLC, to conduct an inspection of the five buildings located on the Premises. Martyn Daniel LLC provided a report to the City dated September 12, 2018 that identifies deficiencies found in the five buildings including but not limited to the following: • Mold; • Leaking roofs and walls; • Other structural defects; and • Improvements installed within the Premises that do not comply with applicable codes or otherwise pose risk, including but not limited to tenant -installed electrical work. �G I NAL Renton Municipal Airport — Occupancy and Hold Harmless Agreement Page 1 of 7 G. The deficiencies identified in the Report arose during the term of the Leases while Kaynan controlled the Premises H. Occupant expressly acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Report and asserts that Occupant had sufficient time to review the Report prior to executing this Agreement. The Report estimates repair costs to total $1,088,693. Given the Report's high estimated cost to repair the Premises' buildings, the City is not in a position as of the date of this Agreement to repair the buildings. For that reason, the City will not enter into a landlord -tenant relationship with Occupant. Thus, because (1) Occupant was a tenant of Kaynan and not the City, (2) Kaynan's Leases terminated October 1, 2018, and (3) the City will not enter into a landlord - relationship with Occupant, Occupant has no legal right to remain on and use the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City is sympathetic to Occupant's situation in having Kaynan end its leasing arrangement with the City before Occupant secured space elsewhere. K. For the reason described in the preceding recital, the City is willing to forbear on its rights to seek removal of Occupant from the Premises and is willing to allow Occupant to remain on and use the Premises for a short period of time — and further subject to notice to vacate — provided that Occupant agree to fully hold the City harmless and comply with the City's terms and conditions. Occupant acknowledges that it benefits from remaining on the Premises and from such an arrangement and desires to enter into an agreement allowing such occupancy. Occupant and the City mutually desire to execute this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions of their agreement. L. Both parties acknowledge sufficient time prior to executing the Agreement to review the Agreement and to retain and review with legal counsel of their choosing, if they so choose. II. AGREEMENT For and in consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived and other valuable consideration the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows. INCORPORATION OF RECITALS The recitals above are fully'incorporated as if set forth herein. Renton Municipal Airport — Occupancy and Hold Harmless Agreement Page 2 of 7 OCCUPANCY OF PREMISES Until the termination of this Agreement, Occupant may continue to occupy the same portion of the Premises as authorized under Occupant's lease with Kaynan as indicated in Exhibit A. The occupancy shall be subject to the following: (a) Occupant expressly acknowledges that Occupant has decided to occupy the Premises in Occupant's sole judgment after having read and reviewed the Report and has not based its decision to occupy the Premises on any assurance or representation from the City. (b) Due to the Report's findings regarding the conditions of the buildings on the Premises, Occupant shall not use the Premises for human occupancy. For example, no office use, no repair work within the Premises, etc. (c) Occupant acknowledges and agrees to the following as -is and where -is terms, disclaimers, and waivers, all of which shall survive the termination of this Agreement: 1.

HOLD HARMLESS As a supplement to any other related provision in this Agreement and not as a limitation in any way, Occupant will indemnify, defend, release and hold harmless, the City and its officials, employees, and other agents (hereinafter "Indemnitees") from and against all actions, causes of action, liabilities, claims, suits, penalties, fines, judgments, liens, awards, damages, or losses (including but not limited to loss of grant funds, obligations to repay grant funds, or loss of other revenues) of any kind whatsoever (hereinafter "Claims"), for injury to or death of any person (including without limitation claims brought by invitees of Occupant) or damage to or loss of any property or cleanup of any discharge or release by Occupant or violation or alleged violation of any law or regulation, and expenses, costs of litigation, and reasonable attorneys' fees related thereto, or incident to establishing the right to indemnification, to the extent such Claims arise out of or are in any way related to this Agreement or the presence on the Premises by Occupant or invitees. Occupant expressly waives any immunity under industrial insurance whether arising from Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington or any other statute or source, to the extent of the indemnity set forth in this paragraph. In the event that Occupant is successful in proving that the foregoing indemnity is Renton Municipal Airport — Occupancy and Hold Harmless Agreement Page 4 of 7 limited by RCW 4.24.115, Occupant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees to the full extent allowed by RCW 4.24.115. In no event shall Occupant's obligations hereunder be limited to the extent of any insurance available to or provided by Occupant. Nothing in this section is intended to require Occupant to indemnify, defend, or hold harmless from any Claims to the extent they arise out of the sole negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Indemnitees. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 6. REMEDIES OF THE CITY Upon termination of this Agreement, the City may enter the Premises, and by any lawful manner, remove Occupant. Each right and remedy provided for in this Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 7. NO WAIVER No failure by either party to insist upon the strict performance of any agreement, term, covenant or condition hereof or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of such agreement, term, covenant, or condition.
