satisfactory to the Government in all other respects. In no
circumstances will the Lessee be entitled to assign to any third-party rights of action that
the Lessee may have against the Government. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
cancellation of insurance coverage based on nonpayment of the premium shall be effective
upon ten (10) days' written notice to the Government and any Approved Mortgagee. The
Lessee understands and agrees that cancellation of any insurance coverage required to be
carried and maintained by the Lessee under this Condition 16 will constitute a failure to
comply with the terms of this Lease, and the
Government shall have the right to terminate this Lease for default and breach pursuant
to Condition 8 upon receipt of any such cancellation notice, but only if the Lessee fails to
cure such noncompliance to the extent allowed under Condition 8. The Lessee shall
deliver or cause to be delivered upon execution of this Lease (and thereafter not less than
fifteen (15) days prior
to the expiration date of each policy furnished pursuant to this Condition 16), at the
Government's option, a certified copy of each policy of insurance required by this Lease
as soon as each such policy is made available by the insurer, or a certificate of insurance
evidencing the
insurance required by this Lease, in a form acceptable to the Government, and
including such endorsements necessary to afford additional insured or loss payee status
or evidence other conditions as required per provisions above, or both. |
16.5. In the event that any part of the Leased Premises improvements, including
the ARFF Facility, is damaged (except de minimis damage) or destroyed, the risk of which
is assumed by the Lessee under Condition 16.1 ("Damaged or Destroyed Property"), the
Lessee shall promptly give notice thereof to the Government and all Approved
Mortgagees.
16.5.1. The Lessee shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the
casualty, restore the Damaged or Destroyed Property as nearly as possible to the
condition that existed immediately prior to such loss or damage, subject to Condition
16.5.2. and subject to the limits of property and casualty insurance proceeds,
provided under Condition 16.
16.5.2. In the event that the Government and any Approved Mortgagees in
consultation with the Lessee determine that the magnitude of Damaged or Destroyed
Property is so extensive that the Project cannot be used by the Lessee for its operations
and the repairs, rebuilding, or replacement of the Damaged or Destroyed Property cannot
reasonably be expected to be substantially completed within nine (9) months of the
occurrence of the casualty ("Extensive Damage or Destruction of Improvements"), either
Party may terminate this Lease as provided in Condition 8.3. In the event that the
Government shall determine that an Extensive Damage or Destruction of Improvements
has not occurred, then neither Party shall have the right
to terminate this Lease. In the event the Government determines that such an event has
occurred, and the Approved Mortgage disagrees with that determination, then the matter
14
shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of Condition 22 of this Lease. If the Parties
and any Approved Mortgagees mutually agree to repair, rebuild, and replace less than all
Damaged or Destroyed Property, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this
Lease as provided in Condition 8.3. with respect to the Leased Premises on which the
Damaged or Destroyed Property that will be repaired, rebuilt, and replaced is situated.
Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to Condition 8.3.,any insurance proceeds
received as a result of any casualty loss to the Leased Premises improvements, including the
ARFF Facility shall be applied in the following order of priority: (i first, te restoring the
damaged area and removing any related debris to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Government; (ii) second, to repairing, rebuilding, and/or replacing the Leased Premises
improvements, including the ARFF Facility and the damaged area to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Government; (iii) third, if required by the Government or any
Approved Mortgagee, to the payment of any outstanding liens held by the Government or
any Approved Mortgagee, in accordance with the order of priority of such liens, until all
such liens are fully satisfied and released, and (iv) fourth, the excess, if any, shall be paid
to the Lessee. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to Condition
8.3.2, then any insurance proceeds received as a result of any casualty loss to the Leased
Premises improvements, including the ARFF Facility shall be
applied to the restoration of the Leased Premises in accordance with Condition10 after
repayment of any outstanding mortgage, if any, on the Leased Premises or pursuant to
Indenture referred to in Condition 28.2 and thereafter any remaining proceeds shall be applied as
provided in subsections (iii) and (iv) above.

other sanctions and remedial costs related to Lessee’s use of the Leased Premises.

conducted in good faith, without cost or expense to the Government, the validity or application of
