Assignment/Subletting: Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or sublease any part or all of the Premises, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Any assignment, encumbrance or sublease, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without Landlord's consent shall be void and shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. No consent to any assignment or sublease shall constitute a waiver of the provisions of this Section and no other or subsequent assignment or sublease shall be made without Landlord's prior written consent. Before an assignment or sub-lease will be approved, the proposed assignee or sub-tenant must comply with provisions of the then current Airport Leasing Policies, including, but not limited to the "Analysis of Tenant's Financial Capacity," independent of Tenant's compliance or Financial Capacity.

In the case of an assignment of the full leasehold interest and/or complete sale of the stock or other interests in the entity constituting Tenant and concomitant transfer of ownership of said entity, (a) in the case of an assignment, the proposed assignee shall deliver to Landlord a written instrument duly executed by the proposed assignee stating that it has examined this Lease and agrees to assume, be bound by and perform all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease accruing after the date of such assignment, to the same extent as if it were the original Tenant, and (b) in the case of a stock transfer, Transferee shall deliver a written acknowledgment that it shall continue to be bound by all the provisions of this Lease after the LEASE AGREEMENT 13 City of Renton to Rainier Flight Service, LLC LAG 15- transfer. Except in the case of an assignment of the full leasehold interest, any assignment permitted herein will not relieve Tenant of its duty to perform all the obligations set out in this Lease or addenda hereto. In no event will the assignment of the full leasehold interest or the complete sale of the stock or other interests in the entity constituting Tenant and concomitant transfer of ownership of said entity cause an extension of the Term of this Lease. 14.b. Conditions to Assignment or Sublease: Tenant agrees that any instrument by which Tenant assigns or sublets all or any portion of the Premises shall (i) incorporate this Lease by reference, (ii) expressly provide that the assignee or subtenant may not further assign or sublet the assigned or sublet space without Landlord's prior written consent (which consent shall not, subject to Landlord's rights under this Section, be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), (iii) acknowledge that the assignee or subtenant will not violate the provisions of this Lease, and (iv) in the case of any assignment, acknowledge that Landlord may enforce the provisions of this Lease directly against such assignee. If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in violation of the terms and provisions of this Lease, Landlord may collect Rent from the assignee. Acceptance of rent by the Landlord shall not be a waiver of any of Landlord's remedies against Tenant for violation of provisions of this Lease. A subtenant may cure Tenant's default. In either event, Landlord shall apply the amount collected from the assignee or subtenant to Tenant's obligation to pay Rent under this Lease. 14.c. No Release of Tenant's Liability: Neither an assignment or subletting nor the collection of Rent by Landlord from any person other than Tenant, nor the application of any such Rent as provided in this Section shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Section or release Tenant from its obligation to comply with the terms and provisions of this Lease and Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable for all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, including the obligation to pay Rent under this Lease, unless Landlord otherwise agrees in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord's consent to assignment is obtained for a complete assignment and Assignee agrees in writing to assume all of the obligations and liabilities of this Lease accruing after such assignment, Tenant shall be relieved of all liability arising from this Lease and arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring after Landlord's consent is obtained. To the extent that any claim for which indemnification of the Landlord (including with respect to Hazardous Substances) arises after Tenant's complete assignment for conduct predating said assignment, the Tenant shall not be relieved of obligations or liability arising from this Lease. 14.d. Documentation: No permitted subletting by Tenant shall be effective until there has been delivered to Landlord a copy of the sublease and an executed Operating Permit and Agreement in which the subtenant agrees not to violate and to act in conformity with the terms and provisions of this Lease; provided that no Operating Permit shall be required for the subletting of hangar or tie-down space for aircraft storage purposes.

Failure to Comply with Airport Regulations and Minimum Standards: Failure to comply with the Airport Regulations and Minimum Standards, if the failure continues for a period of twenty-four (24) hours after notice of such default is given by Landlord to Tenant. If the failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within twenty-four (24) hours, then Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the failure to comply within twenty-four (24) hours and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the failure to comply. However, said inability to cure within twenty-four (24) hours, diligence and good faith notwithstanding, cannot be based on financial incapacity. 15.a.(3). Failure to Perform or Cure: Failure to perform any other provision of this Lease, if the failure to perform is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice of such default has been given by Landlord to Tenant. If the default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, then Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the default within thirty (30) days of the Landlord's notice and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default. 15.a.(4).

Additional Security: If Tenant is in default under this Lease, and such default remains uncured for more than three (3) business days after Landlord gives Tenant notice of such default, then Landlord, at Landlord's option, may in addition to other remedies, require Tenant to provide adequate assurance of future performance of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease in the form of a deposit in escrow, a guarantee by a third party acceptable to Landlord, a surety bond, a letter of credit or other security acceptable to, and approved by, Landlord. If Tenant fails to provide such adequate assurance within twenty (20) days of receipt of a request by Landlord for such adequate assurance, such failure shall constitute a material breach of this Lease and Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease. 15.c. Remedies: If Tenant commits a default, then following the expiration of the notice and cure periods set forth in Section 15.a. above, Landlord shall have the following alternative remedies, which are in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law, and Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages: 15.c.(1). Maintain Lease in Force: To maintain this Lease in full force and effect and recover the Rent and other monetary charges as they become due, without terminating Tenant's right to possession, irrespective of whether Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises. If Landlord elects to not terminate the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to attempt to re-let the Premises at such rent and upon such conditions and for such a term, and to perform all acts necessary to maintain or preserve the Premises as Landlord deems reasonable and necessary, without being deemed to have elected to terminate the Lease, including removal of all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and on the account of Tenant. In the event any such re-letting occurs, this Lease shall terminate automatically upon the new Tenant taking possession of the Premises. Notwithstanding that Landlord fails to elect to terminate the Lease initially, Landlord at any time during the Term may elect to terminate this Lease by virtue of such previous default of Tenant so long as Tenant remains in default under this Lease. 15.c.(2). Terminate Lease: To terminate Tenant's right to possession by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default including without limitation thereto, the following: (i) any and all unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination, plus (ii) any and all Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of occupancy of the Premises by a new tenant following the re- letting of the Premises, plus (iii) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of business would be likely to result therefrom, including without limitation, in (A) retaking possession of the Premises, including reasonable attorney fees therefor, (B) maintaining or preserving the Premises after such default, (C) preparing the Premises for re-letting to a new tenant, including repairs or necessary alterations to the LEASE AGREEMENT 16 City of Renton to Rainier Flight Service, LLC LAG 15- Premises for such re-letting, (D) leasing commissions incident to re-letting to a new tenant, and (E) any other costs necessary or appropriate to re-let the Premises; plus (iv) at Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable state law. The amounts referenced in this Section include interest at 12% per annum. 16. BINDING AGREEMENT: Subject to the restriction upon assignment or subletting as set forth herein, all of the terms, conditions, and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon the parties, their successors and assigns, and in the case of a Tenant who is a natural person, his or her personal representative and heirs. 17. CONDEMNATION: If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises shall be condemned or taken by Landlord or any county, state, or federal authority for any purpose, then the Term shall cease as to the part so taken from the day the possession of that part shall be required for any purpose, and the rent shall be paid up to that date. From that day the Tenant shall have the right to either cancel this lease and declare the same null and void, or to continue in the possession of the remainder of the same under the terms herein provided, except that the rent shall be reduced in proportion to the amount of the Premises taken for such public purposes. All damages awarded for such taking for any public purpose shall belong to and be the property of the Landlord, whether such damage shall be awarded as compensation for the diminution in value to the leasehold, or to the fee of the Premises herein leased. Damages awarded for the taking of Tenant's improvements located on the Premises shall belong to and be awarded to Tenant. 18. SURRENDER OF PREMISES: Tenant shall quit and surrender the Premises at the end of the Term in a condition as good as the reasonable use thereof would permit, normal wear and tear excepted. Alterations, additions or improvements which may be made by either of the parties hereto on the Premises, except movable office furniture or trade fixtures put in at the expense of Tenant, shall be and remain the property of the Landlord and shall remain on and be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof at the termination of this Lease without hindrance, molestation, or injury. Tenant may remove from the Premises movable office furniture or trade fixtures put in at the expense of Tenant. Tenant shall, at its sole expense, properly and promptly repair to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction any damage to the Premises occasioned by Tenant's use thereof, or by the removal of Tenant's movable office furniture or trade fixtures and equipment, which repair shall include the patching and filling of holes and repair of structural damage. 19. INSURANCE: 19.a. Personal Property: Tenant, at its expense, shall maintain in force during the Term a policy of special form — causes of loss or all risk property insurance on all of Tenant's alterations, improvements, trade fixtures, furniture and other personal property in, on or about the Premises, in an amount equal to at least their full replacement cost. Any proceeds LEASE AGREEMENT 17 City of Renton to Rainier Flight Service, LLC LAG 15- of any such policy available to Tenant shall be used by Tenant for the restoration of Tenant's alterations, improvements and trade fixtures and the replacement of Tenant's furniture and other personal property.

The Tenant shall provide the Landlord with written notice of any policy cancellation, within two business days of their receipt of such notice. 19.c. Insurance Policies: Insurance required hereunder shall be written by a company or companies acceptable to Landlord. Landlord reserves the right to establish and, from time- to-time, to increase minimum insurance coverage amounts. Insurance required herein shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis, not a claims-made basis. Notice of increased minimum insurance coverage amounts shall be sent to the Tenant at least ninety (90) days prior to the annual renewal date of the Tenant's insurance. Prior to possession the Tenant shall deliver to Landlord documents, in a form acceptable to Landlord, evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance. Tenant shall, prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Landlord with evidence of renewal of such insurance, in a form acceptable to Landlord. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the insurance policies referred to above. Tenant shall forthwith, upon Landlord's demand, reimburse Landlord for any additional premiums for insurance carried by Landlord attributable to any act or omission or operation of Tenant causing such increase in the cost of insurance. If Tenant shall fail to procure and maintain such insurance, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, procure and maintain the same, and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the premiums and other costs paid or incurred by Landlord to procure and maintain such insurance. Failure on the part of the Tenant to maintain the insurance as required shall constitute a material breach of the lease, upon which the Landlord may, after giving five business days notice to the Tenant to correct the breach, terminate the Lease or, at its discretion, procure or renew such insurance and pay any and all premiums in connection therewith, with any sums so expended to be repaid to the Landlord on demand. 19.d.

NO WAIVER: It is further covenanted and agreed between the parties hereto that no waiver by Landlord of a breach by Tenant of any covenant, agreement, stipulation, or condition of this Lease shall be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of the same covenant, agreement, stipulation, or condition, or a breach of any other covenant agreement, stipulation, or condition. The acceptance by the Landlord of rent after any breach by the Tenant of any covenant or condition by Tenant to be performed or observed shall be construed to be payment for the use and occupation of the Premises and shall not waive any such breach or any right of forfeiture arising therefrom. 22. NOTICES: All notices or requests required or permitted under this Lease shall be in writing; shall be personally delivered, delivered by a reputable express delivery service such as Federal Express or DHL, or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed delivered on receipt or refusal.
