S
ECTION 4.2. Term. The Term of this Lease commences on the Closing Date and ends on June 1, 20__, or, if Additional Bonds have been issued under the Indenture, the last day that precedes the final maturity of Additional Bonds (if later than June 1, 20__). If on June 1, 20__, or on such later date determined pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Indenture shall not be discharged by its terms, then the Term of this Lease shall be extended until 10 days after the Indenture shall be discharged by its terms, except that the Term of this Lease shall in no event be extended beyond June 1, 20__, or the date that is 10 years after such later date determined pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(ii) The City agrees that the terms of this Lease constitute full and sufficient notice of the right of the Authority to re -lease the Leased Property in the event of such re-entry without effecting a surrender of this Lease, and further agrees that no acts of the Authority in effecting such re -leasing shall constitute a surrender or termination of this Lease irrespective of the term for which such re- leasing is made or the terms and conditions of such re -leasing, or otherwise, but that, on the contrary, in the event of such default by the City the right to terminate this Lease shall vest in the Authority to be effected in the sole and exclusive manner hereinafter provided for in subparagraph (b) hereof.
(b) Termination of Lease . If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing hereunder, the Authority at its option may terminate this Lease and re -lease all or any portion of the Leased Property. If the Authority terminates this Lease at its option and in the manner hereinafter provided on account of default by the City (and notwithstanding any re - entry upon the Leased Property by the Authority in any manner whatsoever or the re - leasing of the Leased Property), the City nevertheless agrees to pay to the Authority all costs, loss or damages howsoever arising or occurring payable at the same time and in the same manner as is herein provided in the case of payment of Lease Payments and Additional Rental Payments. Any surplus received by the Authority from such re - leasing shall be deposited in the Bond Fund. Neither notice to pay rent or to deliver up possession of the premises given under law nor any proceeding in unlawful detainer taken by the Authority shall of itself operate to terminate this Lease, and no termination of this Lease on account of default by the City shall be or become effective by operation of law, or otherwise, unless and until the Authority shall have given written notice to the City of the election on the part of the Authority to terminate this Lease.
The City covenants and agrees that no surrender of the Leased Property, or of the remainder of the Term hereof or any termination of this Lease shall be valid in any manner or for any purpose whatsoever unless stated or accepted by the Authority by such written notice.
(c) Appointment of Authority as Agent and Attorney -in-Fact; Surrender of Leased Property. The City hereby irrevocably appoints the Authority as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the City to enter upon and re -lease the Leased Property upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default and to remove all personal property whatsoever situated upon the Leased Property whether owned by the City or a sublessee of the City, to place such personal property in storage or other suitable place in the County o f Santa Clara for the account of and at the expense of the City, and the City hereby exempts and agrees to save harmless the Authority from any costs, loss or damage whatsoever arising or occasioned by any such entry upon and re -leasing of the Leased Property and the removal and storage of such personal property by the Authority or its duly authorized agents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.2. The City agrees to surrender and quit possession of the Leased Property upon demand of the Authority for the purpose of enabling the Leased Property to be re- let under this Section 8.2, and the City further waives the right to any rental obtained by the Authority in excess of the Lease Payments and hereby conveys and releases such DRAFT--Contact the Office of the City Clerk at (408) 535-1260 or [email protected] for final document.

excess to the Authority as compensation to the Authority for its services in re -leasing the Leased Property. Any surplus received by the Authority from such re -leasing shall be deposited in the Bond Fund.
(d) Proceedings at Law or In Equity . If an Event of Default occurs and continues hereunder, the Authority may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the amounts then due and thereafter to become due hereunder or to enforce any other of its rights hereunder.
SECTION 8.3. No Remedy Exclusive . No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Authority is intended to be exclusive and every such remedy is cumulative and in addition to every other remedy given under this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon the occurrence of any Event of Default impairs any such right or power or operates as a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Authority to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article VIII it is not necessary to give any notice, other than as expressly required in this Article VIII or by law.
S
ECTION 8.4. Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses . If the Authority or the City defaults under any of the provisions of this Lease and the nondefaulting party employs attorneys or incurs other expenses for the collection of moneys or the enforcement or performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the part of the defaulting party herein contained, the defaulting party will on demand therefor pay to the nondefaulting party the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred by the nondefaulting party; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to expend its own funds for any payment described in this Section.
S
ECTION 8.5. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver . If the Authority or the City breaches any agreement in this Lease and thereafter the other party waives the breach, such waiver is limited to the particular breach so waived and does not operate to waive any other breach hereunder.
SECTION 8.6. Application of Proceeds . All net proceeds received from the re -lease of the Leased Property under this Article VIII, and all other amounts derived by the Authority or the Trustee as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, must be paid to and applied by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.03 of the Indenture.
SECTION 8.7. Trustee and Bond Owners to Exercise Rights . Such rights and remedies as are given to the Authority under this Article VIII have been assigned by the Authority to the Trustee under the Assignment Agreement for the benefit of the Bond Owners, to which assignment the City hereby consents. The Trustee and the Bond Owners shall exercise such rights and remedies in accordance with the Indenture.
