City and Center Art are from time to time collectively referred to herein as the "Parties". Center Art desires to lease from City, and City agrees to lease to Center Art, certain real property and improvements located in the City of Seattle, Washington, upon which Center Art intends to develop, construct, operate and maintain, according to the terms and conditions of this Lease, the herein described Project. IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants contained herein, and subject to the terms and provisions set forth herein, the City and Center Art covenant and agree as follows: 1. Summary Lease Data; Exhibits. The following terms have the following meanings, except as specifically modified in this Lease: 1.1 Premises. The Premises comprise approximately 102,770 square feet of real property located on the Seattle Center campus in The City of Seattle, County of King, State of Washington (the "Seattle Center"). The Premises comprise the following: 1.1.1 The real property legally described in Exhibit 1 attached hereto, which real property includes: (a) an existing building approximately 20,557 square feet in size and depicted as "Area A" on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit 2 (the "Existing Building"); (b) an adjacent paved and landscaped area approximately 38,811 square feet in size and depicted as "Area B" on Exhibit 2 ; and (c) an additional, adjacent paved and landscaped area depicted as the "Public Use Area" on Exhibit 3 . As used in this Lease, the "Exhibit and Garden Area" means the Existing Building and that portion of the Premises depicted as "Area B" on Exhibit 2 . 1.1.2 Approximately 853 feet of floor area within an existing retail building ("Retail Building") depicted as "Area C" on Exhibit 2. 1.1.3 [this section intentionally deleted] 1.1.4 City's Reserved Rights. Center Art's right to use and occupy the Premises is subject to the City's reserved rights in that portion of the Existing Building designated as the "Mural Support Space," as depicted on Exhibit 2 and as further described in Section 2.7.1 below. In addition, the City has certain reserved rights in and to the Public Use Area depicted on Exhibit 3 and as further defined and described in Section 2.7.3 below. 1.1.5 Lot Line Adjustment. At any time after the Effective Date, Seattle Center and Center Art shall cooperate to complete a lot line adjustment of that portion of the Premises described in Section 1.1.1 ("Lot Line Adjustment"). The Lot Line Adjustment is intended to adjust existing lots to conform the Premises substantially to the configuration as depicted on Exhibit 3 attached hereto (the "Lot Line Adjustment Configuration"), however, the Parties acknowledge that the Lot Line Adjustment Configuration is conceptual only and the actual Lot Line Adjustment may vary depending on, among other things, the number and configuration of existing lots. Center Art shall bear all costs of the Lot Line Adjustment, including any necessary survey costs and application fees. Each of Seattle Center and Center Art shall bear the costs, if any, of their own respective staff or administrative time to process the Lot Line Adjustment. If the Director reasonably concludes that the Lot Line Adjustment is not feasible, for example, if completion of the Lot Line Adjustment cannot be accomplished consistent with legal requirements or would have an unreasonably adverse impact on other existing lots in the vicinity of the Premises, and the Lot Line Adjustment cannot be amended or modified in a manner that would make it feasible or reduce the impacts to an acceptable level, then the parties shall not be required to complete the Lot Line Adjustment. Otherwise, upon completion of the Lot Line Adjustment, the Seattle Center and Center Art agree to modify this Lease as necessary to amend the description of the Premises and to grant Center Art any easements, licenses or other rights it may reasonably require for the construction, development, operation, repair and maintenance of the Project to the extent required to replace rights that would otherwise be modified, reduced or eliminated as a result of the Lot Line Adjustment. 1.2 Description of Project. The Project to be located on the Premises shall be designed, constructed and operated as a glass and gardens exhibition space for exhibition of Dale Chihuly's glass as presented by Chihuly Inc., d/b/a Chihuly Studio ("Chihuly"), other artwork and such other ancillary and related uses as permitted herein, including but not limited to gardens, retail sales, indoor/outdoor art exhibition spaces, theater, hot shop, cafe, ticketing, and banquet/special event space, all as further described in Section 2.3, Permitted Uses. The Project shall include renovation and modification of the Existing Building including the addition of a glass exhibition hall (the "Glass House"), development of the Exhibit and Garden Area and improvements to the Retail Space for certain retail uses, all as set forth in the preliminary design and site plan attached hereto as Exhibit 4 ("Preliminary Project Design"). In addition, the Project shall include certain improvements (herein the "Initial Improvements") within that portion of the Public Use Area depicted as the "Project Improvement Area" in Exhibit 2 and as further described in Section 14.1 below. At Center Art's sole cost and discretion, the Project also may include a covered walkway to the Existing Building as depicted in Exhibit 2. 1.3 Project Improvement Area. That portion of the Public Use Area of the Premises in which Center Art shall provide landscaping and other improvements as part of the Initial Improvements as depicted on Exhibit 4 .

For the purpose of determining the Commencement Date, Center Art's possession of the Exhibit and Garden Area shall be deemed to constitute possession of the Premises. The Parties agree and acknowledge that City shall deliver possession of the Retail Building to Center Art on the later of: January 1, 2012, provided the Garden and Exhibit Area is scheduled to open to the general public no later than April 1, 2012; or sixty (60) days prior to the scheduled opening date of the Exhibit and Garden Area to the general public.

If the Chihuly portion of the Project is terminated or is no longer feasible, Center Art shall be entitled to use the Premises for other similar uses that support the Seattle Center's mission and programs subject to prior written notification to Seattle City Council and subject to the Director's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In making his/her decision, the Director shall be entitled to consider, without limitation, the following criteria, none of which shall stand alone or be conclusive: whether the proposed new use will be compatible with and contribute to the Seattle Center vision, existing facilities and the unique mix of programs, attractions and open spaces at Seattle Center; will be compatible with the Century 21 Master Plan; will create a high quality experience for patrons; will have benefits to the public similar to the original use; will not have a greater impact than the initial use on Seattle Center capital expenditures or net operating costs; will partner with Seattle Center to achieve the Seattle Center vision. The uses allowed in this Section 2.3 are referred to collectively as the "Permitted Uses." No use other than the Permitted Uses shall be permitted on the Premises without the prior written approval of the Director, which approval may be withheld conditioned or delayed in the Director's reasonable discretion. 2.4 Quiet Enjoyment. Center Art shall at all times during the term of this Lease have the right to peacefully and quietly have, hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises, subject only to the terms of this Lease, without hindrance or molestation from City or any other person whatsoever. 2.5 Access Prior to Commencement Date; Construction of Certain Utilities. Center Art may enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the following purposes: 2.5.1 General Access. Center Art shall have access to the Premises in order to examine and conduct studies of the land and the existing structures, subject to the Director's approval.

At the completion of construction of the Project and Initial Improvements, and again following the completion of any Lot Line Adjustment, if Center Art can demonstrate to the Director's reasonable satisfaction that Center Art reasonably requires additional licenses or use rights not adequately provided for under this Lease, Center Art and the Director shall cooperate as necessary to agree upon the terms and location of any additional licenses or use rights as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to operate, maintain or repair the Project. Any such licenses or use rights will remain effective for the term of this Lease until the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, at which time they will automatically terminate without any need for further action on the part of either party hereto. As further described in Section 14.1, temporary construction easements for Center Art's use and occupancy of specific portions of the Public Use Area or Seattle Center campus for the purpose of staging and construction of the Project and Initial Improvements at such reasonable locations as the Director shall designate shall be set forth in a separate construction agreement between Center Art and City prior to commencement of any construction. 2.7 City's Reserved Rights to Certain Areas of the Premises. Center Art's right to use and occupy the Premises is subject to certain City reserved rights to specific areas of the Premises as follows: 2.7.1 Mural Support Space. City reserves the right to control, manage, use and grant third parties the right to use the Mural Support Space depicted on Exhibit 2 . City shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that such third party uses do not unreasonably interfere with or disturb the rights granted to Center Art herein. Center Art acknowledges that typical use of the Mural Support Space includes backstage support for concerts on the Mural Stage, and such use shall not be deemed an unreasonable interference. For the duration of the Term, Center Art shall have the right to install, maintain, repair and replace HVAC equipment and supporting structures within the Mural Support Space in such locations as approved by the Director, if necessary or desirable in connection with the construction, development or use of the Project. City shall have no maintenance responsibility for any equipment installed by Center Art within the Mural Support Space. Other than with respect to the HVAC equipment and/or any supporting structures, Center Art shall have no obligations of any kind under this Lease to maintain or repair the Mural Support Space, all of which shall be the responsibility of City (or any third party otherwise responsible therefor). City shall pay its equitable share of the cost of utilities to the Mural Support Space; provided, however, that at its option and sole cost, as part of the Initial Improvements, Center Art may cause the utilities to the Mural Support Space to be separately metered. City shall have no obligation to enhance, improve or alter the Mural Support Space or to change City's operations therein as a result of this Lease. 2.7.2 [this section intentionally deleted] 2.7.3 Public Use Area. The City reserves the right to control, manage, maintain and operate the Public Use Area as depicted in Exhibit 3 hereto, including the Mural Stage, all improvements, pedestrian walkways, landscaping and hardscaping and other amenities, subject to the specific rights and obligations of Center Art with respect to the Project Improvement Area and any other rights granted to Center Art herein. City reserves the Public Use Area for public use and enjoyment, festivals, and other uses the Director deems consistent with Seattle Center's mission and programs. The City shall be solely responsible for the management, operation and maintenance of the Public Use Area, and City shall maintain and operate the Public Use Area in a clean, safe and unobstructed manner consistent with other areas of the Seattle Center campus. Following its installation of Initial Improvements within the Project Improvement Area, Center Art shall have no obligation to maintain or repair any portion of the Project Improvement Area or any other portions of the Public Use Area, with the exception of maintenance of any artwork it installs within the Project Improvement Area. Center Art, in connection with its operation and programming of the Premises, shall not obstruct members of the general public from entering upon or using the Public Use Area, except for temporary construction activities or closures from time to time in connection with the Project construction, operation, maintenance or repair, or periodic installation, repair or removal of Center Artinstalled Artworks and Inventory in the agreed-upon locations within the Project Improvement Area. All of such work by Center Art in the Project Improvement Area shall be in the locations and subject to the terms of the construction agreement described in Section 14.1 or as otherwise agreed to by the Director. Center Art shall at all times during the Term have access to the Public Use Area as reasonably necessary or desirable in order to install and maintain the following Project elements: (i) If and when constructed, a covered canopy over a pedestrian-only walkway connecting the south side of the Exhibit and Garden Area with the Space Needle driveway turn around (which generally shall remain available for patron queuing and drop-off except during major festivals or events when alternate arrangements may be agreed upon between Center Art and the Director); (ii) The proposed "green wall" on the western side of the Existing Building in the Exhibit and Garden Area, to the extent necessary or desirable for maintenance or repair; (iii) Vehicular access over and across locations designated by the Director for loading/unloading as needed to support the Project programming, subject to the Director's reasonable rules and regulations; and (iv) Installation, maintenance, repair, replacement and removal from time to time of Project Artworks and Inventory in the Project Improvement Area in the locations depicted in Exhibit 4 or as otherwise agreed to by Center Art and the Director from time to time. 2.8 References to Seattle Center. Center Art shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Project advertising materials that would typically include a reference to the Project location will reference the Seattle Center location. 3. Lease Term. 3.1 Initial Term. This Lease shall be for a term (the "Initial Term") commencing on the Commencement Date and ending on the Expiration Date specified in Section 1.8, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of this Lease or extended as provided in Section 3.2 or 3.3 below. As used in this Lease, "Term" includes the Initial Term and any extended terms. 3.2 Extended Terms. At the expiration of the Initial Term, Center Art shall have the option to extend the Lease for five (5) additional successive terms of five years each (each an "Extended Term"). Center Art must exercise the option to extend by providing the Director with written notice of Center Art's intention no later than 180 days prior to the expiration of the then-current Term. All terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply to any Extended Term, except for Base Rent and Additional Rent, which shall be calculated as described in Sections 4.3 through 4.5. Whenever the word "Term" is used in this Lease it shall be deemed to include the Initial Term and any exercised Extended Term. 4. Rent. 4.1 Interim Rent . Beginning on the Commencement Date and thereafter in advance on or before the first day of each month during the Interim Rent Period, Center Art shall pay to City at the address and to the account specified by the City, without notice or demand or any setoff or deduction whatsoever, in lawful money of the United States, the Interim Rent in Section 1.9. 4.2 Base Rent. Beginning on the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter, in advance, on or before the first day of each month throughout the Lease Term, Center Art shall pay to City at the address and to the account specified by City, without notice or demand or any setoff or deduction whatsoever, in lawful money of the United States, the monthly installment of annual Base Rent specified in Section 1.9. Base Rent shall be prorated on a daily basis for any partial calendar month within the Lease Term. 4.3 Base Rent During Extended Terms . The annual Base Rent for each Extended Term under this Lease shall be Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), which amount is subject to the inflation adjustment in Section 4.5. 4.4 Additional Rent; Net Sales of Chihuly Fine Art. During each Extended Term only, in addition to Base Rent, Center Art shall pay Additional Rent in quarterly installments in the amount of 8% of Net Sales of Chihuly Fine Art. The term "Chihuly Fine Art" as used in this Lease shall mean Chihuly "Glass Editions and Prints" sold on the Premises, including orders taken at the Premises. The payment of Additional Rent shall be on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar quarter and shall be accompanied by the report under Section 10.1.2. As used in this Lease, "Net Sales" means Center Art's gross sales from Chihuly Fine Art, minus the following actual costs: applicable taxes, COGS, direct labor and operating expenses and credit card fees, if applicable. In no case shall "Net Sales" be less than twenty-five (25%) of gross sales for the purpose of calculating the Additional Rent. For example, if monthly gross sales of Chihuly Fine Art equal $80,000, the City would receive eight percent (8%) of actual net sales or eight percent (8%) of $20,000 (25% of $80,000), whichever is greater. 4.5 CPI Adjustments to Base Rent. As used in this Section 4.5, Lease Year means a period commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and ending twelve (12) full calendar months later. If the Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, the first Lease Year will include the first partial calendar month in addition to the subsequent twelve calendar months, and the last Lease Year shall end on the Expiration Date. Beginning with the first payment of Base Rent due in the seventh (7th) Lease Year and thereafter annually on the first day of each subsequent Lease Year, the Base Rent in Section 4.3 shall be adjusted upward only by an amount equal to the total percentage change that occurred in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U): Seattle-Tacoma; Bremerton, Washington Area, all items index (Reference Base 1982-84 =100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor ("CPI") between the first and last day of the immediately preceding Lease Year. City shall notify Center Art in writing at least one (1) month prior to the first payment of adjusted Base Rent of the estimated adjusted Base Rent amount. If the estimated CPI adjustment is less than the actual CPI adjustment, upon notice from City, Center Art shall include any additional amount of Base Rent owing in the next monthly installment of Base Rent. If the estimated CPI adjustment exceeds the actual CPI adjustment, upon notice from City, Center Art may apply any excess to the next monthly installment of Base Rent. By way of illustration, if the CPI is 100.0 on the first day of the sixth Lease Year and is 102.2 on the last day of the sixth Lease Year, the annual Base Rent for the seventh Lease Year shall be increased by 2.2% ($11, 000.41) to $511,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 4.5, the aggregate CPI increase in Base Rent applicable to any 5-year Extended Term shall be capped at a ten percent (10%) non-compounded increase. By way of illustration, the adjusted Base Rent due at any time in the first Extended Term shall not exceed the amount of $550,000, i.e., 10% of $500,000. Assuming the Base Rent due on the last day of the tenth (10th) Lease Year is $550,000, the Base Rent in the second Extended Term (Lease Years 11 through 15) shall not exceed $605,000 (10% of $550,000). If during the Lease Term there is a change in the index base or other modification to the CPI index, the parties shall apply whatever conversion factor establishes the true percentage change in the CPI during the relevant time period. 4.6 Additional Charges. Whether or not so designated, all other sums due from Center Art under this Lease, including but not limited to the Artists at Play public benefit expenditure under Section 23.1 shall be payable as and when specified elsewhere in this Lease, but if not specified, then within ten (10) business days after written demand. 5. Late Charge; Interest. If Center Art fails to pay City any sum when due, such amount shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the date due until the date paid. 6. Security Deposit. As partial consideration for this Lease and in order to induce the City to enter this Lease and to commit resources to the Project prior to the Rent Commencement Date, within ten days of receiving a fully executed Lease, Center Art shall provide the City with the Security Deposit specified in Section 1.10. If Center Art takes possession of the Premises and completes the construction of the Initial Improvements, the Security Deposit shall be applied to Center Art's Base Rent as specified in Section 1.10. If the Rent Commencement Date fails to occur, then City shall be entitled to retain the Security Deposit. 7. Contingencies 7.1 Preliminary Project Design. City and Center Art have agreed to the Preliminary Project Design attached hereto as Exhibit 4 depicting the location of Initial Improvements and other improvements to the Premises and Project Improvement Area. Prior to the Commencement Date if the Preliminary Project Design is modified for any reason, including but not limited to the requirements of any governmental entity, Center Art shall submit a modified design for the Project ("Modified Project Design") to City for its review and approval which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. City and Center Art shall confirm in writing their approval of the Modified Project Design and following such confirmation shall enter into an amendment to this Lease to substitute the Modified Project Design for the Preliminary Project Design presently attached hereto. 7.2 Project Approvals. Center Art shall have received all required permits for demolition, clearing and grading work in connection with the Project without modifications or conditions that are unacceptable to Center Art, in Center Art's reasonable discretion, which permits shall have been issued in final and unappealable form ("Project Approvals").

All or any of such works of visual art may be periodically removed, replaced or modified at any time by Center Art during the Term of this Lease or, subject to mutual agreement of Center Art and the Director, donated or designated for donation to the City at the expiration of the Lease.

CITY AND CENTER ART ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THIS LEASE WERE SPECIFICALLY NEGOTIATED AND AGREED UPON BY THEM. 19.4 Center Art's Release of Claims.

The releases and waivers set forth in this Section 20 shall be subject to the applicable laws of the State of Washington.

The amount of such credit shall be determined pro rata, by applying the same proportion of the annual premium for the Property Insurance premium that the portion (in square feet) of the Premises occupied by the City bears to the total square footage of the Premises. Such rent credit shall be applied and realized by Center Art in the month immediately following the month during which the annual premium for the Property Insurance has become paid in full. Center Art shall provide reasonably available proof of such payment in full at the City's request. 21. Condemnation. 21.1 Total Taking . In the event of the taking or condemnation by any competent authority of the whole of the Premises at any time during the Term (a "Total Taking"), the right of City and Center Art to share in the proceeds of any award for the Premises, the Improvements and damages upon any such Total Taking shall be as follows: 21.1.1 Termination of Lease . The Term shall cease as of the date of possession by the condemnor and all Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of possession by the condemnor as provided for herein. 21.1.2 Removal of Improvements . There shall be paid from the condemnation award any expenses required with respect to the removal of Center Art's capital improvements as required by Section 14.5 of this Lease upon termination of the Lease, unless City, in its capacity as a governmental entity, is the condemning authority, in which case, City shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense and without reducing any condemnation award paid to Center Art, for the cost of the removal of such capital improvements. 21.1.3 City's and Center Art's Shares . City and Center Art shall each receive the present value of their respective interests in the Leasehold Estate and Project improvements, together with interest thereon from the date of taking to the date of payment at the rate paid on the award, and attorney's fees and other costs to the extent awarded. The present values of City's and Center Art's respective interests in the Leasehold Estate and Project improvements shall be established by the same court of law or other trier of fact that establishes the amount of the condemnation award, but if there is no court of law available or willing to so determine City's and Center Art's respective interests, those interests shall be resolved by the dispute resolution provisions of Section 35 of this Lease. Such value shall be determined without regard to any early termination of the Lease and shall assume all Extended Terms have been exercised. 21.2 Partial Taking . In the event of a partial taking or condemnation of the Premises that is not a Total Taking or a temporary taking (a "Partial Taking"): 21.2.1 Termination Right . If there is a Partial Taking of a Material Portion of the Premises (as defined below), Center Art (with the consent of any Leasehold Mortgagee) shall have the right, to be exercised by written notice to City no later than the date that is sixty (60) days after the date of the Partial Taking, to terminate this Lease as to such remaining part of the Premises not so taken on a date to be specified in said notice but in any case not earlier than the date of such Partial Taking. In such case Center Art shall pay and satisfy all Rent and other charges due and accrued hereunder up to the date of termination and shall perform all of the obligations of Center Art hereunder to such date, with the exception of any obligation that by its express terms survives termination. Any controversy with respect to Center Art's determination as to whether a Partial Taking constitutes a taking of a Material Portion of the Premises shall be resolved pursuant to Section 35 of this Lease and until so resolved this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that if such proceeding affirms that a taking affects a Material Portion of the Premises and as such, Center Art has the right to terminate this Lease, then such termination shall be effective as of the date on which Center Art delivered its termination notice to City pursuant to this Section 21.2.1, and City shall reimburse Center Art, within five (5) business days following such determination, for any Rent paid by Center Art during the pendency of such proceeding. Failure to so notify City within said sixty (60) days shall be deemed a waiver of said termination right by Center Art. If City (or other condemning authority) shall following such termination notice and prior to the date of the actual taking, modify the taking or condemnation to avoid the same or substantially limit the extent of the taking or any adverse impact that may have been caused, so that the taking shall not occur or that it will be performed in a manner that will not constitute a taking of a Material Portion of the Premises, then Center Art's termination right shall be waived and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Center Art shall cooperate with City's efforts hereunder to avoid or limit the impact of any such taking, so that, to the extent possible, the same shall not cause a termination of this Lease. As used in this Section 21 a "Material Portion of the Premises" shall mean (a) any material portion of the Existing Building as renovated, the Glass House or the Exhibit and Garden Area, or (b) any portion of the Premises or access thereto that permanently prevents or impairs Center Art's ability to access or use the Premises for the Permitted Uses. 21.2.2 Rent Abatement . If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to Section 21.2.1 above, then the Term of this Lease shall continue and annual Base Rent to be paid by Center Art hereunder shall thereafter be reduced or abated to the extent of any diminution of the Premises in connection with the partial taking. 21.2.3 Award . Any award paid in respect of a Partial Taking, whether this Lease continues or is terminated, shall be divided and shared by City and Center Art as provided in Section 21.1.3 hereof. 21.3 Temporary Taking . If the whole or any part of the Premises or of Center Art's interest under this Lease is taken or condemned by any competent authority for its temporary use or occupancy, (a) Center Art shall continue to pay, in the manner and at the times herein specified, the full amounts of the Base Rent and other charges payable by Center Art hereunder, (b) this Lease shall continue and, (c) except only to the extent that Center Art may be prevented from so doing pursuant to the terms of the order of the condemning authority, Center Art shall perform and observe all of the other terms, covenants, conditions and obligations hereof upon the part of Center Art to be performed and observed as though such taking or condemnation had not occurred. In the event of any such temporary taking or condemnation, Center Art shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award made for such taking, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, unless such period of temporary use or occupancy shall extend to or beyond the expiration date of the Term of this Lease, in which case such award shall be apportioned between City and Center Art as of such date of expiration of the Term. 21.4 City as Condemning Authority . Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, if City is the governmental entity that initiated such taking or condemnation, then Center Art shall be entitled to retain the entirety of any award for Center Art's leasehold interest in the Premises, the Project improvements and damages thereto. 22. Damage or Destruction During Term of Lease. 22.1 Repairs, Alterations and Further Improvements . In the event of damage to or destruction of any or all of the Project improvements (excluding therefrom ordinary wear and tear requiring maintenance and routine repairs) during the term of this Lease, this Section 22 shall apply. 22.2 Minor Damage or Destruction . If the cost of repairing or reconstructing the Project improvements to the condition and form prior to such damage or destruction does not exceed $250,000 ("Minor Damage"), Center Art shall promptly commence and thereafter diligently complete such repair and reconstruction of the portion of the Project improvements so damaged or destroyed to substantially its condition prior to the occurrence of such Minor Damage with such alterations as Center Art shall reasonably determine prudent or valuable under the circumstances, including any changes required to comply with applicable law and with the then prevailing construction practices and together with such other changes that Center Art may request, provided such other changes are approved by the Director acting reasonably. City and Center agree that the proceeds derived from insurance maintained pursuant to Section 20 shall be made available to effect such repair. 22.3 Major Damage or Destruction . If the cost of repairing or reconstructing the Project improvements to the condition and form prior to such damage or destruction exceeds $250,000 ("Major Damage"), then within ninety (90) days after the casualty event giving rise to such Major Damage, Center Art shall notify City of Center Art's election either to repair such Major Damage and reconstruct the Project improvements in accordance with Section 22.4 below, or to terminate this Lease and remove Center Art's capital improvements in accordance with Section 14.5. 22.4 Repair and Reconstruction of Major Damage . If Center Art elects to repair Major Damage and reconstruct the Project improvements, Center Art shall promptly after such election and diligently thereafter effect such repair and reconstruction of the portion of the Project improvements so damaged or destroyed to substantially its condition prior to the occurrence of such Major Damage with such alterations as Center Art shall reasonably determine prudent or valuable under the circumstances, provided such other changes are approved by the Director acting reasonably. City and Center Art agree that the proceeds derived from insurance maintained pursuant to Section 20 shall be made available to effect such repair. 22.5 Termination of Lease Following Major Damage . If Center Art elects not to repair Major Damage, and, instead, elects to terminate this Lease, unless the parties otherwise agree, such termination of this Lease shall take effect ninety (90) days following Center Art's notice to City of its election to terminate the Lease. To the extent of any insurance proceeds available therefor, Center Art shall restore all areas of the Exhibit and Garden Area to a clean, neat and safe condition as reasonably required by the Director including removal of remaining capital improvements as described in Section 18. 22.6 Effect of Leasehold Mortgagee's Application of Insurance Proceeds . If the terms of any Leasehold Mortgage described in Section 26 below require the application of any material portion of insurance proceeds to be applied to reduce obligations secured by such Leasehold Mortgage and Center Art elects to repair or reconstruct the Project improvements, then Center Art shall have a reasonable period of time to obtain financing reasonable required to finance the repair or reconstruction of the Project improvements in accordance with this Section 22. 23. Public Benefits. Center Art hereby commits to provide the City and its residents with the public benefits and amenities described below ("Public Benefits") throughout the Lease Term. Center Art shall annually report on the Public Benefits as required under Subsection 10.1. 23.1 Artists at Play . Center Art will provide funding for an imaginative and engaging playground with play structures designed by local artists and designers, as conceptually envisioned in Addendum 3 of the Center Arts' response to the City's Request for Proposals, which addendum is attached as Exhibit 6 . Specifically, Center Art shall make an initial funding of one million dollars ($1,000,000), payable to the Seattle Center Foundation, for the purpose of funding the Artists at Play playground at the site of the Fun Forest North location on the Seattle Center campus ("Artists at Play"). Center Art and the Seattle Center shall establish an advisory group ("Artists at Play Advisory Group") to develop guidelines for the artist/designer selection process and recommended use of the initial funding (the "Artists at Play Guidelines") as envisioned in Exhibit 6 and following the best practices in the public art field as outlined in Seattle Center's "Century 21 Public Art Plan and Guidelines" adopted by the City Council as part of the Century 21 Master Plan Design Guidelines (adopted May 10, 2010 by Resolution No. 31209). The Artists at Play Advisory group shall consist of Center Art appointees and Seattle Center appointees with Center Art having approval over the final recommended use of the initial funding. Center Art shall make the initial funding available to the Seattle Center Foundation as follows: (a) ten percent (10%) of the initial funding shall be made available to the Seattle Center Foundation at the commencement of the Artists at Play Advisory Group work on the Artists at Play Guidelines; and (b) the balance of the initial funding shall be made available to the Seattle Center Foundation upon completion of all site clearing and grading work at the Fun Forest North site necessary in order for the Artists at Play construction to commence; provided, however, in any event the initial funding shall be paid at expiration of the Initial Term if Center Art elects to terminate this Lease at the end of the Initial Term. Center Art and City agree that while a reasonable amount of funding is necessary in connection with the work of the Artists at Play Advisory Group and development of the Selection Guidelines, the substantial majority of the initial funding shall be used for actual "in the ground" improvements. Thereafter, upon the opening of the Artists at Play area to the public, and thereafter on or before January 1 of each remaining year during the Term, Center Art will pay $50,000 to the Seattle Center Foundation for the purpose of an annual maintenance fund. The term for the annual maintenance fund will be concurrent with the Lease Term. The site of the Artists at Play Playground on the Seattle Center campus is shown on Exhibit 7 . The Artists at Play Playground shall be open to the general public. No direct profit will inure to Center Art as a result of its funding of the Artists at Play Playground. Center 23.2 Sustainable Design. Center Art will use all commercially reasonable efforts to design and construct the Project according to LEED Silver standards and will submit the Project for LEED Silver Standard Certification. Key sustainable design features may include to the extent feasible: (a) natural ventilation and day lighting, (b) passive solar and radiant heating, (c) green roof and green wall systems, (d) extensive rain gardens and new landscaping to replace existing asphalt, and (e) adaptive transformation of an existing building reducing the carbon footprint. 23.3 Enhanced Pedestrian Access . Center Art and the City have agreed that the campus entries at the south and north edges of the Premises, in addition to a significantly broadened pedestrian promenade at the eastern edge of the Premises, shall be landscaped with improved pedestrian circulation into the Seattle Center campus in substantial conformance with Exhibit 4 attached hereto. Center Art will be responsible for designing and funding certain visual enhancements and landscaping within the Project Improvement Area in order to give a sense of transparency into the Art Garden and visually engage visitors to the campus as they walk outside the south, east and north sides of the Premises. These improvements are intended to knit this portion of the campus together with adjacent amenities such as the Mural Amphitheatre, Peace Garden, Space Needle, Broad Street Green and Center House. 23.4 Thomas Street. The cafe will be located on the north side of the Existing Building, with glazing along its northern wall to allow the public to see into the building, enhancing visual connections along the vacated Thomas Street, and opening up the perceived constriction point with Center House as conceptually depicted in Exhibit 4. 23.5 Center Nights Free Admission. Center Art will work cooperatively with Seattle Center to create a regular free admission program in conjunction with other Seattle Center resident organizations under a branded "Center Nights" or similar framework, pursuant to which Center Art shall make a minimum of 10,000 free tickets available annually. The goal of this program is to provide free access opportunities for low-income Seattle residents who might otherwise not be able to afford admission to the Project and other events by Seattle Center resident organizations. 24. Community Partners. As long--time proud and supporting members of the diverse Seattle community, the members of Center Art L.L.C. and Chihuly are committed to furthering arts education and arts engagement for youth and adults. During the Initial Term, Center Art will partner with at least four community groups to provide arts education and activities for youth and adults. The initial community partners are Seattle Public Schools, Pilchuck Glass School, Pratt Fine Arts Center and ArtsFund. After the initial agreements with the four identified community partners expire (which shall not be sooner than the expiration of the Initial Term), Center Art agrees to continue to work with a minimum of two (2) community partners during any Extended Term in order to provide a consistent level of arts education and community activities throughout such Extended Term(s). Prior to finalizing any agreement with a community partner for any Extended Term, Center Art agrees to provide written notification to City Council and the Director, and further agrees to partner with a minimum of one arts-oriented and one education-oriented partner. A brief summary of the initial community partner plans is as follows: 24.1 Seattle Public Schools. To enhance access to arts education, Center Art will consult with the Seattle Public Schools to develop a student curriculum program for Seattle Public Schools focused on the 8th grade level that spans visual arts and science and supports graduation and testing requirements. Students will have guided and self-guided thematic experiences at the Project, coupled with hands-on projects and related classroom activities. This program, which also includes funding for roundtrip transportation from each participating school to the venue, is to be funded by Center Art pursuant to a budget agreed upon between Center Art and the Director with the expectation to directly benefit approximately 4,000 Seattle students annually. 24.2 Pratt Fine Arts Center . Center Art will implement a program that supports Pratt artists throughout the year and culminates in a week long artist lecture series on the Premises open to Pratt students at no admission charge. Additionally, to help make the educational offerings at Pratt more accessible to all regardless of economic circumstances, Center Art will annually host (at its own expense) an event to specifically fund the Pratt scholarship and tuition assistance program. 24.3 Pilchuck Glass School . Center Art will sponsor a new, week-long artist lecture series with Pilchuck that culminates in a celebration of the work of Pilchuck at the Premises and honors the Pacific NW Studio Glass Movement and all glass artists inspired by this tradition. 24.4 ArtsFund . In support of ArtsFund's mission to promote artistic and organizational excellence and advocacy for the arts, Center Art will annually host an event to encourage and support giving to the arts through ArtsFund. 25. Assignment and Sublease. 25.1 Generally . Except as provided in this Section 25 or in Section 26 of this Lease, Center Art shall not voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, assign, license, mortgage, hypothecate, sublet or in any manner transfer this Lease or any interest herein, nor shall Center Art authorize, allow or permit any person (the employees of Center Art excepted), to occupy or use the Premises or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent and approval of the Director. The Director shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition said consent and approval. Any assignment, license, mortgage, sublease, hypothecation, transfer, occupancy or use of the Premises in violation of this paragraph shall be null and void and of no force and effect and shall further constitute a breach of this Lease by Center Art. The giving by the Director of such consent and approval shall not be deemed to be a consent or approval to any subsequent assignment, license, mortgage, sublease, hypothecation, transfer, occupancy or use by any other person nor shall it release Center Art or any of Center Art's obligations to pay Rent and perform all other continuing obligations to be performed by Center Art hereunder. 25.2 Subletting, Renting and Licensing . As long as Center Art is not in default under any of the terms of this Lease, it is agreed that, subject only to this Section 25.2, Center Art shall have the unrestricted right to sublease, sublet, rent or license a portion of the Premises for any time or times during the Lease Term not to exceed the Initial Term of this Lease and the Extended Terms, if exercised, provided that the terms and conditions of any such sublease, rental agreement or license agreement do not violate the terms and conditions of this Lease and do not relieve Center Art of its obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subletting of all or substantially all of the Premises shall be considered an assignment of this Lease, subject to the City's consent as provided in Section 25.1 above. Center Art may not sublet any portion of the Premises in which the City has reserved rights pursuant to Section 2.7 without the prior written approval of the Director. The Director agrees not to unreasonably withhold, delay or condition said approval. 25.3 Rights of Leasehold Mortgagee . Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 25, Center Art shall have the right to grant or deliver a leasehold mortgage to a Leasehold Mortgagee, all subject to and as provided in Section 26 of this Lease. Center Art shall pay all legal fees and other costs incurred by the City in connection with consideration of Center Art's request for approval of assignments or subleases. 26. Encumbrance of Leasehold Estate 26.1 Permitted Encumbrance . Notwithstanding Section 25, Center Art may, on one or more occasions and at any time during the Initial Term or any Extended Term, encumber to any person or entity, hereinafter called "Leasehold Mortgagee," by deed of trust or mortgage or other security instrument ("Leasehold Mortgage") any or all of Center Art's interest under this Lease and Center Art's leasehold estate for the purpose of financing construction of the Initial Improvements or any improvements, additions or modifications to the Premises or Project or any advances related thereto or otherwise for the purpose of protecting Leasehold Mortgagee's security in the Project or Premises. A Leasehold Mortgage in compliance with this Section 26 shall not require the City's prior consent; provided, however, in no circumstance shall any encumbrance incurred by Center Art constitute in any manner a lien or encumbrance on the fee or any other interest of City in the Premises. In the event Center Art incurs any encumbrance under this Section 26, the Leasehold Mortgagee having a valid encumbrance shall have the right during the existence of the encumbrance and at any time during the Term of the Lease to do any act or thing required of Center Art under this Lease, and any such act or thing done and performed by Leasehold Mortgagee shall be as effective to prevent a forfeiture of Center Art's rights under this Lease as if done by Center Art itself. The term "foreclosure" as used in this Lease with respect to a Leasehold Mortgage shall include a judicial sale, nonjudicial sale, trustee's sale or other similar realization proceeding. 26.2 Required Notice. Each time Center Art shall mortgage its interest in this Lease the holder of such Leasehold Mortgage shall provide the Director with notice of such Leasehold Mortgage together with a true copy of such Leasehold Mortgage and the name and address of the Leasehold Mortgagee. Following receipt of such notice by Director, the provisions of this Section 26 shall apply in respect to such Leasehold Mortgage. In the event of any assignment of a Leasehold Mortgage or in the event of a change of address of a Leasehold Mortgagee or of an assignee of such Leasehold Mortgagee, notice of the new name and address shall be provided to City as provided in Sections 1.12 and 35. City shall have no liability for actions taken with respect to this Lease that may impair the rights of any Leasehold Mortgagee that has failed to provide City with the notice required under this Section 26.2. 26.3 Protection of Leasehold Mortgagees . If Center Art, or Center Art's successors or assigns, shall mortgage this Lease in compliance with the provisions of this Section 26, then so long as any such Leasehold Mortgage shall remain unsatisfied of record, the following provisions shall apply: 26.3.1 Consent . No cancellation, surrender or modification of this Lease shall be effective as to any Leasehold Mortgagee unless consented to in writing by such Leasehold Mortgagee, except that such consent shall not be required with respect to a termination, cancellation or surrender in accordance with this Section 26 or Section 21 upon condemnation or a Default that Leasehold Mortgagee has notice of and does not cure or commence to cure as and when required under the terms of this Lease. 26.3.2 Notice of Default . City, upon providing Center Art any notice of (a) any Default under this Lease, (b) a termination of this Lease, or (c) a matter on which City may predicate or claim a Default, shall at the same time provide a copy of such notice to every Leasehold Mortgagee of which City has been provided notice in accordance with Section 26.2 hereof. City shall have no liability for the failure to give any such notice, except that no such notice by City to Center Art shall be deemed effective as to any Leasehold Mortgagee that shall not have been duly given a copy of such notice (unless and until a copy thereof has been so provided to such Leasehold Mortgagee of which City has been provided notice in accordance with Section 26.2 hereof). From and after such notice has been given to a Leasehold Mortgagee, such Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the same period, after the giving of such notice upon it, for remedying any Default or acts or omissions which are the subject matter of such notice, or causing the same to be remedied, as is given Center Art after the giving of such notice to Center Art, plus in each instance, the additional periods of time specified in Sections 26.3.3 and Section 26.3.4 hereof to remedy, commence remedying, or cause to be remedied the Defaults or acts or omissions which are specified in such notice. City shall accept such performance by or at the instigation of such Leasehold Mortgagee as if the same had been done by Center Art. Center Art authorizes each Leasehold Mortgagee to take any such action at such Leasehold Mortgagee's option and does hereby authorize entry upon the Premises by the Leasehold Mortgagee for such purpose. 26.3.3 Notice to Leasehold Mortgagee . Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Default shall occur which entitles City to terminate this Lease, City shall have no right to terminate this Lease unless, following the expiration of the period of time given Center Art to cure such Default or the act or omission which gave rise to such Default, City shall notify every Leasehold Mortgagee (of which City shall have been provided notice of pursuant to Section 26.2 hereof) of City's intent to so terminate at least one hundred eighty (180) days in advance of the proposed effective date of such termination in the event of such Default. The provisions of Section 26.3.4 shall apply only if during the one hundred eighty (180) day termination notice period, any Leasehold Mortgagee shall: (a) Notify City of such Leasehold Mortgagee's desire to nullify such notice; and (b) Pay or cause to be paid in full all Rent and other payments (i) then due and in arrears as specified in the termination notice to such Leasehold Mortgagee and (ii) any of the same which become due during such 180day period as and when they become due; and (c) Comply or in good faith, with reasonable diligence and continuity, commence to comply with all non-monetary requirements of this Lease then in default and reasonably susceptible of being complied with by such Leasehold Mortgagee; provided, however, that such Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be required during such 180-day period to cure or commence to cure any Default consisting of (i) Center Art's failure to satisfy and discharge any lien, charge or encumbrance against Center Art's interest in this Lease or the Premises junior in priority to the lien of the mortgage held by such Leasehold Mortgagee, or (ii) past non-monetary obligations then in default and not reasonably susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee, such as, by way of example only, the bankruptcy of Center Art. 26.3.4 Procedure on Default . (a) If City shall elect to terminate this Lease by reason of any Default, and a Leasehold Mortgagee shall have provided notice under Section 26.2 and proceeded in the manner provided for by Section 26.3.3, this Lease shall not be deemed terminated so long as such Leasehold Mortgagee shall: (i) Pay or cause to be paid in full the Rent and other monetary obligations of Center Art under this Lease as the same become due, and perform all of Center Art's other obligations under this Lease excepting (a) obligations of Center Art to satisfy or otherwise discharge any lien, charge or encumbrance against Center Art's interest in this Lease which is junior in priority to the lien of the Leasehold Mortgage held by such Leasehold Mortgagee, and (b) past nonmonetary obligations then in default and not reasonably susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee, such as, by way of example only, the bankruptcy of Center Art; and (ii) If not enjoined or stayed, take steps to acquire or sell Center Art's interest in this Lease by foreclosure of the Leasehold Mortgage or other appropriate means and prosecute the same with due diligence. Nothing in this Section 26.3.4(a), however, shall be construed to extend this Lease beyond the Initial Term hereof, nor to require a Leasehold Mortgagee to continue such foreclosure proceedings after the Default has been cured. If the Default shall be cured and the Leasehold Mortgagee shall discontinue such foreclosure proceedings, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if Center Art had not defaulted under this Lease. (b) If a Leasehold Mortgagee is complying with Section 26.3.4(a), upon the acquisition of the leasehold estate herein by such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee or any other purchaser at a foreclosure sale or otherwise and the discharge of any lien, charge or encumbrance against Center Art's interest in this Lease or in the Premises which is junior in priority to the lien of the Leasehold Mortgage held by such Leasehold Mortgagee and which Center Art is obligated to satisfy and discharge by reason of the terms of this Lease, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if Center Art had not defaulted under this Lease. (c) The making of a Leasehold Mortgage shall not be deemed to constitute an assignment or transfer of this Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created, nor shall any Leasehold Mortgagee, as such, be deemed to be an assignee or transferee of this Lease or of the leasehold estate hereby created so as to require such Leasehold Mortgagee, as such, to assume the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions on the part of Center Art to be performed hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the purchaser at any sale of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created in any proceedings for the foreclosure of any Leasehold Mortgage, or the assignee or transferee of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created under any instrument of assignment or transfer in lieu of the foreclosure of any Leasehold Mortgage, including, without limitation, a Leasehold Mortgagee, shall be deemed to be an assignee or transferee within the meaning of this Section 26.3.4 and shall be deemed to have agreed to perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions on the part of Center Art to be performed hereunder from and after the date of such purchase and assignment only for as long as such purchaser or assignee is the holder of this leasehold estate. If the Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee shall become holder of the leasehold estate and if the Premises shall have been or become materially damaged on, before or after the date of such purchase and assignment, the Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee shall be obligated to repair, replace or reconstruct the Premises only to the extent Center Art is required to do so by the terms of this Lease and then only to the extent of the insurance proceeds received by the Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee by reason of such damage. Should such net insurance proceeds be insufficient to repair, replace or reconstruct the Premises as required and should the Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee choose not to fully reconstruct the Premises, such failure shall entitle City to terminate this Lease and the net insurance proceeds shall be applied as provided in Section 20.3 hereof; provided, however, that the Leasehold Mortgagee shall not be entitled to receive insurance proceeds in excess of the then outstanding balance of the debt secured by the Leasehold Mortgage. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, any sale of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created in any proceedings for the foreclosure of any Leasehold Mortgage, or the assignment or transfer of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created in lieu of the foreclosure of any Leasehold Mortgage, shall be deemed to be a permitted sale, transfer or assignment of this Lease and of the leasehold estate hereby created. (e) Any Leasehold Mortgagee or other acquirer of the leasehold estate pursuant to foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure or other proceedings, and any tenant under a New Lease, may, upon acquiring the leasehold estate, without further consent of City, sell and assign the leasehold estate on such terms and to such persons and organizations (each, a "Subsequent Assignee") as comply with the terms of this Lease including but not limited to those set forth in Section 24, it being agreed that the Leasehold Mortgagee's right to assign, sell or sublet the Premises shall be limited to the same extent as the Center Art's rights set forth in this Lease. 26.4 New Lease . In the event of the termination of this Lease as a result of a Default, City shall promptly, within a reasonable time, provide each Leasehold Mortgagee of which City has received notice of, with written notice that the Lease has been terminated (the "New Lease Notice"), together with a statement of all sums which would at that time be due under this Lease but for such termination and of all other defaults, if any, then known to City. City agrees to enter into a new lease (the "New Lease") of the Premises with such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee for the remainder of the Term of this Lease, effective as of the date of termination, at the same Rent and upon the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease; provided: 26.4.1 Request . Such Leasehold Mortgagee shall make written request upon City for such New Lease within sixty (60) days after the date such Leasehold Mortgagee receives City's New Lease Notice given pursuant to this Section 26.4. 26.4.2 Procedure . Such Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee shall pay or cause to be paid to City at the time of the execution and delivery of such New Lease, any and all sums which would at the time of execution and delivery thereof be due pursuant to this Lease but for such termination, and, in addition thereto, all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which City shall have incurred by reason of such termination and the execution and delivery of the New Lease and which have not otherwise been received by City from Center Art or any other party in interest under Center Art. Upon the execution of such New Lease, City shall allow to tenant named therein, as an offset against the sums otherwise due under this Section 26.4.2 or under the New Lease, an amount equal to the net income received by City, if any, from the Premises during the period from the date of termination of this Lease to the date of the beginning of the term of such New Lease. In the event of a controversy as to the amount to be paid to City pursuant to this Section 26.4.2, the payment obligation shall be satisfied if City shall be paid the amount not in controversy upon execution of the New Lease, the Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee shall agree to pay any additional sum ultimately determined to be due, and such obligation shall be adequately secured. The parties shall cooperate promptly to determine any disputed amount. If the parties cannot determine such amount through negotiation, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 35 of this Lease. 26.4.3 Cure . Such Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee shall agree to remedy any of Center Art's defaults of which such Leasehold Mortgagee was notified by City's New Lease Notice and which are reasonably capable of being so cured by Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee. 26.4.4 Priority . Any New Lease made pursuant to this Section 26.4 shall have the same priority with respect to any mortgage or other lien, charge or encumbrance on the Premises as this Lease, and tenant under such New Lease shall have the same right, title and interest in and to the Premises as Center Art had under this Lease as of the date of the New Lease. 26.5 New Lease Priorities . If more than one Leasehold Mortgagee shall request a New Lease pursuant to Section 26.4, City shall enter into such New Lease with the Leasehold Mortgagee whose Leasehold Mortgage is prior in lien, or with the designee of such Leasehold Mortgagee; provided, however, that City is not obligated to determine whether any junior lien holders exist and shall have no responsibility to enter into a New Lease with a Leasehold Mortgagee who has not provided City with notice under Section 26.2. City, without liability to Center Art or any Leasehold Mortgagee with an adverse claim, may rely upon a mortgagee title insurance policy issued by a responsible title insurance company doing business in the State of Washington as the basis for determining the appropriate Leasehold Mortgagee who is entitled to such New Lease. 26.6 Certain Defaults . Nothing herein contained shall require any Leasehold Mortgagee or its designee as a condition to its exercise of rights hereunder to cure any Default which by its terms is not reasonably susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee or such designee in order to comply with the provisions of Sections 26.3.3 or Section 26.3.4 as a condition of entering into the New Lease provided for in Section 26.4. No Default, the cure of which, and no obligation of Center Art, the performance of which, requires possession of the Premises shall be deemed reasonably susceptible of cure or performance by any Leasehold Mortgagee or successor to Center Art's interest under this Lease or a New Lease not in possession of the Premises, provided such holder is complying with the requirements described in Section 26.3.4(a)(ii) hereof and, upon obtaining possession, promptly proceeds to cure any such Default then reasonably susceptible of cure by such Leasehold Mortgagee or successor. No Leasehold Mortgagee shall be required to cure the bankruptcy, insolvency or any related or similar condition of Center Art. 26.7 Eminent Domain . Center Art's share, as provided in Section 21 of this Lease, of the proceeds arising from an exercise of the power of eminent domain shall, subject to the provisions of Section 21, be disposed of as provided for by any Leasehold Mortgage. 26.8 Insurance . A standard mortgagee clause naming each Leasehold Mortgagee may be added to any and all insurance policies required to be carried by Center Art hereunder. The Leasehold Mortgage may provide a manner for the disposition of such proceeds, if any, and in such event the Leasehold Mortgage shall control but only as to disposition of any insurance proceeds Center Art or Leasehold Mortgagee is entitled to under this Lease. 26.9 Dispute Resolution . City shall give each Leasehold Mortgagee of which City has notice prompt Notice of any dispute resolution proceedings between City and Center Art involving obligations under this Lease. Each such Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right to intervene after receipt of notice of such proceedings, in any such proceedings and be made a party to such proceedings, and the parties hereto do hereby consent to such intervention. Any intervening Leasehold Mortgagee shall be bound by the outcome of such proceedings. In the event that any Leasehold Mortgagee shall not elect to intervene or become a party to any such proceedings, City shall give the Leasehold Mortgagee notice of, and a copy of any award or decision made in any such proceedings, which shall be binding on all Leasehold Mortgagees not intervening after receipt of notice of such proceedings. 26.10 Notices . Notices from City to the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be mailed to the address furnished City pursuant to Section 26.2 and those from the Leasehold Mortgagee to City shall be mailed to the address designated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.12 hereof. All Notices from any Leasehold Mortgagee or City shall be given in the manner described in Section 35 and shall in all respects be governed by the provisions of that section. 26.11 Erroneous Payments . No payment made to City by a Leasehold Mortgagee shall constitute agreement that such payment was, in fact, due under the terms of this Lease; and any Leasehold Mortgagee having made any payment to City pursuant to City's wrongful, improper or mistaken notice or demand shall be entitled to the return of any such payment or portion thereof provided the Leasehold Mortgagee shall have made demand therefor not later than twelve (12) months after the date of its payment. 26.12 Bankruptcy . In the event of any proceeding by Center Art under the United States Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 U.S.C.) as now or hereafter in effect: 26.12.1 Rejection of Lease by Center Art . If this Lease is rejected in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding by Center Art or a trustee in bankruptcy for Center Art, such rejection shall be deemed an assignment by Center Art to the Leasehold Mortgagee (or if there is more than one Leasehold Mortgagee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) of the leasehold estate and all of Center Art's interest under this Lease, in the nature of an assignment in lieu of foreclosure, and this Lease shall not terminate and the Leasehold Mortgagee shall have all the rights of the Leasehold Mortgagee under this Section 26 as if such bankruptcy proceeding had not occurred, unless such Leasehold Mortgagee shall reject such deemed assignment by notice in writing to City within thirty (30) days following the later of (a) rejection of the Lease by Center Art or Center Art's trustee in bankruptcy or (b) approval of such rejection by the bankruptcy court. If any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that this Lease shall have been terminated notwithstanding the terms of the preceding sentence as a result of rejection by Center Art or the trustee in connection with any such proceeding, the rights of any Leasehold Mortgagee to a New Lease from City pursuant to Section 26.4 hereof shall not be affected thereby. 26.13 Leasehold Mortgagee as Trustee . A Leasehold Mortgagee may hold and disburse any funds received as the proceeds of hazard insurance or condemnation. 26.14 Rights Against Center Art . The rights of a Leasehold Mortgagee hereunder shall not diminish any right or claim of City against Center Art for damages or other monetary relief under this Lease. 26.15 Lease Amendments Requested by Leasehold Mortgagee . In the event Center Art seeks to obtain or modify a Leasehold Mortgage, and the applicable Leasehold Mortgagee requires amendments to this Section 26, then City agrees to amend this Lease from time to time to the extent reasonably requested by the Leasehold Mortgagee, provided that the form and content of such amendments are acceptable to the Director in the Director's reasonable discretion and provided that if any such proposed amendment reduces the Rent hereunder or similarly materially and adversely affects the rights of City hereunder or its interest in the Premises or the obligations of the Center Art under this Lease, then the Director may withhold its consent in the Director's sole and absolute discretion. All reasonable expenses incurred by City in connection with any such amendment shall be paid by Center Art upon submission of a bill for the same from City and as a condition for City entering into any such amendment(s). 27. Assignment by City. If City sells or otherwise transfers the Premises, or if City assigns its interest in this Lease, such purchaser, transferee, or assignee thereof shall be deemed to have assumed City's obligations under this Lease arising after the date of such transfer, and City shall thereupon be relieved of all liabilities under this Lease arising thereafter, but this Lease shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. Center Art shall attorn to any City successor which assumes and agrees to perform all of City's obligations under this Lease. 28. Default by Center Art. 28.1 Definition . The following shall constitute a default ("Default") by Center Art under this Lease: (a) Subject to Events of Force Majeure, if Center Art violates, breaches, or fails to keep or perform any term, provision, covenant, or any obligation of this Lease and following written notice from City to all parties entitled to notice of a Default hereunder specifically identifying the nature of the violation, breach or failure, such violation, breach or failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days, or such longer period as is specified by another Section of this Lease or as may be reasonably required in order to cure the violation, breach or failure, provided that Center Art commences the cure within said thirty (30) days following City's written notice and thereafter diligently pursues the cure to completion; (b) if Center Art files or is the subject of a petition in bankruptcy, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed for Center Art's assets or if Center Art makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (c) if Center Art is adjudicated insolvent, or becomes subject to any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law whether domestic or foreign, or liquidated, voluntarily or otherwise; or (d) if Center Art's use of the Premises constitutes a material violation of the Permitted Uses or any law, ordinance or regulation pertaining thereto and such Default is not cured pursuant to Section 28.1(a) above. 28.2 City Remedies . Upon the occurrence of a Default, City shall have the following nonexclusive rights and remedies at its option: (a) to cure such default on Center Art's behalf and at Center Art's sole expense and to charge Center Art for all actual and reasonable costs and expenses incurred by City in effecting such cure as an Additional Charge; (b) without declaring this Lease terminated, to reenter the Premises and to occupy the whole or any part thereof for and on account of Center Art and to collect any unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and Additional Charges that have become payable or that may thereafter become payable, subject at all times to Center Art's, Chihuly's or any other artist's right to remove Artworks and Inventory or any other personal property of Center Art on the Premises or Public Use Area; or (c) to terminate this Lease upon at least ninety (90) days prior written notice and otherwise in accordance with Section 28.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the nature of Center Art's obligation (other than monetary obligations and other than vacation or abandonment of the Premises) is such that more than thirty (30) days is required for performance, then Center Art shall not be in default if it commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. 28.3 Termination of Lease. The parties recognize and agree that termination of the Lease is a drastic and severe remedy. Accordingly, City shall have the right to exercise its right to terminate the Lease in the event of a Center Art Default only if: (a) The Default is of the nature described in Section 28.1(b), (c) or (d) above; (b) In the case of a monetary default where Center Art does not have the immediate funds available to cure the monetary default, City, without limiting its right to pursue other remedies hereunder for a Default has allowed Center Art at least three (3) months from the date of City's notice of such monetary default to cure same; or (c) Center Art has vacated or abandoned the Premises in violation of Section 28.5. 28.4 Reentry by City upon Termination . Upon the termination of this Lease as the result of a Default, City may reenter the Premises, take possession thereof, and remove all persons therefrom, for which actions Center Art shall have no claim thereon or hereunder. Center Art shall be liable and shall reimburse City upon demand for all actual and reasonable costs and expenses of every kind and nature incurred in retaking possession of the Premises. If City retakes the Premises, City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove therefrom all or any part of the personal property located therein and may place the same in storage at any place selected by City, including a public warehouse, at the expense and risk of Center Art. City shall have the right to sell such stored property, after reasonable prior notice to Center Art or such owner(s), after it has been stored for a period of thirty (30) days or more. The proceeds of such sale shall be applied first, to the cost of such sale; second, to the payment of the charges for storage, if any; and third, to the payment of any other sums of money that may be due from Center Art to City; and the balance, if any, shall be paid to Center Art. 28.5 Vacation or Abandonment . Unless due to damage or destruction governed by Section 22 or due to an Event of Force Majeure, if Center Art vacates or abandons the Premises in their entirety and fails to reoccupy them within thirty (30) days after City (1) delivers a notice to Center Art's notice address set forth in Section 1.12 above demanding such re-occupancy and (2) mails by certified or registered mail a copy of the notice to any forwarding address given by Center Art to City in writing, Center Art shall be in default under this Lease. 28.6 City's Non-exclusive Remedies upon Termination due to Default of Center Art. Notwithstanding any reentry by City and anything to the contrary in this Lease, in the event of the termination of this Lease due to the Default of Center Art, the liability of Center Art for all sums due under this Lease provided herein shall not be extinguished for the balance of the then-existing Term of this Lease. Center Art shall also be liable to City for any other amount (excluding consequential damages or specific performance) necessary to compensate City for all the detriment proximately caused by Center Art's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or that in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to, any costs or expenses incurred in maintaining or preserving the Premises after such Default, and any costs incurred in authorizing others the use and occupancy of the Premises and in preparing the Premises for such use and occupancy, and such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of Washington. The provisions of this Section 28.6 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 28.7 City's Remedies Cumulative; Waiver . City's rights and remedies hereunder are not exclusive, but cumulative, and City's exercise of any right or remedy due to a default or breach by Center Art shall not be deemed a waiver of, or alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy that City may have under this Lease or by law or in equity. Neither the acceptance of rent nor any other act or omission of City at any time or times after the happening of any event authorizing the cancellation or forfeiture of this Lease shall operate as a waiver of any past or future violation, breach or failure to keep or perform any covenant, agreement, term or condition hereof or to deprive City of its right to cancel or forfeit this Lease, upon the written notice provided for herein, at any time that cause for cancellation or forfeiture may exist, or be construed so as to estop City at any future time from promptly exercising any other option, right or remedy that it may have under any term or provision of this Lease. 28.8 Commencement of Cure Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 28, if the existence of a default is being contested by Center Art pursuant to dispute resolution or other legal proceedings, if and so long as Center Art is acting in good faith to complete the dispute resolution or other legal proceedings with respect thereto, the time for curing any alleged default shall commence upon the rendering of a final and non-appealable decision with respect thereto, or other resolution thereof, whichever occurs first; provided, however, that if the matter being contested is capable of performance to the extent not in dispute (e.g., the undisputed portion of monies owing), performance to the extent not in dispute shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Section. 28.9 Notice of Default to Chihuly. City, upon providing Center Art any notice of (a) any Default under this Lease, (b) a termination of this Lease, or (c) a matter on which City may predicate or claim a Default, shall at the same time provide a copy of such notice to Chihuly Inc. at 1111 NW 50th Street, Seattle, WA, 98109-5120. 29. Default by City. City shall be in default if City fails to perform its obligations under this Lease within thirty (30) days after its receipt of notice of nonperformance from Center Art; provided, that if the default cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day period, City shall not be in default if City commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion. Upon City's default, Center Art may pursue any remedies at law or in equity that may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of Washington. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 29, if the existence of a default is being contested by City pursuant to dispute resolution or other legal proceedings, if and so long as City is acting in good faith to complete the dispute resolution or other legal proceedings with respect thereto, the time for curing any alleged default shall commence upon the rendering of a final and nonappealable decision with respect thereto, or other resolution thereof, whichever occurs first; provided, however, that if the matter being contested is capable of performance to the extent not in dispute (e.g., the undisputed portion of monies owing), performance to the extent not in dispute shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Section. 30. City and Center Art To Furnish Statement. 30.1 City's Statement . City, within ten (10) business days after written request to City from Center Art or any Leasehold Mortgagee or prospective Leasehold Mortgagee, will furnish a written statement, duly acknowledged, addressed to Center Art and such other persons or entity(ies) as Center Art may reasonably request, as to the following items: (a) The amount of Rent due, if any; (b) Whether or not the Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, whether or not the Lease is in full force and effect as modified and identifying the modifications); (c) Whether or not, to City's actual knowledge, a Default has occurred and specifying the nature of such Default, if any; (c) Whether or not, to City's actual knowledge, any circumstances or events exist which, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both, may constitute a Default hereunder; and (e) Such other matters as Center Art or the Leasehold Mortgagee may reasonably request and which are reasonably acceptable to City and relate to the actual knowledge of City. 30.2 Center Art's Statement . Center Art, within ten (10) business days after written request from City, will furnish a written statement, duly acknowledged, addressed to City and such other persons or entity(ies) as City may reasonably request, as to: (a) Whether or not the Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, whether or not the Lease is in full force and effect as modified and identifying the modifications); (b) Whether or not, to Center Art's actual knowledge, a City default under this Lease has occurred and specifying the nature of such City default, if any; (c) Whether or not, to Center Art's actual knowledge, any circumstances or events exist which, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both, may constitute a City default hereunder; and Such other matters as City may reasonably request and which are reasonably acceptable to Center Art and relate to the actual knowledge of Center Art. 31. Attorneys' Fees. If either party retains the services of an attorney in connection with enforcing the terms of this Lease, each party agrees to bear its own attorneys' fees and costs. 32. Access to Premises by Seattle Center. Seattle Center and its agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at any reasonable time, with at least 24 hours prior notice to Center Art, to examine the same, and to show them to prospective purchasers, lenders or tenants, and to make such repairs, alterations, improvements, additions or improvements to the Premises as the Director may deem necessary or desirable. Center Art will provide Seattle Center with a master key. If Center Art is not personally present to permit entry and an entry is necessary in an emergency, Seattle Center may enter the same by master key or may forcibly enter the same, without rendering Seattle Center liable, except in the event of Seattle Center's gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to impose upon Seattle Center any duty of repair or other obligation not specifically stated in this Lease. If Center Art shall change the locks to the Premises, Center Art shall ensure that Seattle Center receives a master key to enable entry in case of emergency only through Seattle Center and upon paying Seattle Center for all actual and reasonable costs related thereto. 33. Holding Over. If Center Art remains in possession of all or any part of the Premises after the expiration of the Term hereof with City's express or implied consent, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and not a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case, Center Art shall pay City rent in an amount that the parties shall negotiate; provided, however, that if the parties cannot agree on the amount of rent within 30 days from the expiration of the Term, then such holding over shall be deemed to be without City's consent. If Center Art remains in possession of all or any part of the Premises without City's consent, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and not a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case, Center Art shall pay City rent in an amount equal to One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%) of the then-current Base Rent for the entire time Center Art thus remains in possession and Center Art shall hold City harmless from all damages resulting from Center Art's failure to surrender the Premises or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, claims made by a succeeding tenant resulting from Center Art's failure to surrender the Premises or any portion thereof. All provisions of this Lease, except those pertaining to the amount of Base Rent payable and Term, shall apply to such month-to-month tenancy. 34. Notices. Any notice, demand or request required hereunder shall be given in writing to the party's address set forth in Section 1.12 hereof by any of the following means: (a) personal service; (b) commercial or legal courier; or (c) registered or certified, first class mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. Such addresses may be changed by notice to the other parties given in the same manner as above provided. Notices shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of actual receipt, as evidenced by the deliverer's affidavit, the recipient's acknowledgment of receipt, or the courier's receipt, except in the event of attempted delivery during the recipient's normal business hours at the proper address by an agent of a party or by commercial or legal courier or the U.S. Postal Service but refused acceptance, in which case notice shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of the day of attempted delivery, as evidenced by the messenger's affidavit of inability to deliver stating the time, date, place and manner in which such delivery was attempted and the manner in which such delivery was refused, or on the day immediately following deposit with such courier or, if sent pursuant to subsection (c), forty-eight (48) hours following deposit in the U.S. mail. 35. Dispute Resolution. The parties shall make their best efforts to resolve disputes as expeditiously as possible through negotiations at the lowest possible decision-making level, and in the event such negotiations are unsuccessful, to participate in good faith in the mediation process described herein prior to either party initiating any judicial process. If an issue cannot be resolved by negotiations between subordinate staff of Center Art and Seattle Center, the matter shall be referred to the Seattle Center Director and the Center Art President and Chief Executive Officer. If those officials are unable to resolve the dispute within a period of 15 days after the matter has been formally referred to them for resolution, they shall meet during the immediately succeeding seven (7) days to select a mediator to assist in the resolution of such dispute. If Seattle Center Director and Center Art cannot agree upon a mediator within such seven (7) day period, either party may apply to the American Arbitration Association for the appointment of a mediator according to the process that is established by such entity for such action. Center Art and Seattle Center shall share equally the cost charged for the mediation of any dispute. 36. Events of Force Majeure. 36.1 Definition of Force Majeure. Neither City nor Center Art shall be deemed in default hereof nor liable for damages arising from its failure to perform its duties or obligations hereunder if such is due to any circumstance or cause beyond its reasonable control ("Force Majeure" or an "Event of Force Majeure"), including, but not limited to an act of Nature, act of civil or military authority, fire, flood, windstorm, earthquake, periods of inclement weather that unreasonably impact Project construction requirements, strike or labor disturbance, civil commotion, delay in transportation, terrorist act or war or changes in law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not excuse Center Art from the timely payment of Rent and Additional Charges due hereunder, when due unless otherwise excused under Section 22 or elsewhere herein. Another example of an Event of Force Majeure is an administrative or judicial action or appeal filed in order to challenge the validity or conditions of one or more permits, licenses or other governmental approvals related to the Project, including without limitation issuance of an environmental determination such as a mitigated determination of non-significance, until such time as any such action or appeal is finally and ultimately resolved. 36.2 Effect of Event of Force Majeure. If either party is rendered wholly or partly unable to perform its material obligations hereunder, except as to the payment of Rent which shall be excused only as expressly provided for herein, following expiration of a three (3) year period following the first occurrence of the Event of Force Majeure, then the party whose performance is so effected may elect to terminate this Lease and such termination shall take effect ninety (90) days following notice thereof. 37. Execution by City and Center Art. Neither City nor Center Art shall be deemed to have made an offer to the other party by furnishing the other party with a copy of this Lease with particulars inserted. No contractual or other rights shall exist or be created between City and Center Art until this Lease has been approved by appropriate legislative authority and executed by the parties hereto. The City shall not be liable to Center Art if this Lease is not authorized by a valid ordinance. 38. Time of Essence; Time Calculation Method. Time is of the essence with respect to this Lease. Except as otherwise specifically provided, any reference in this Lease to the word "day" means a "calendar day"; provided, however, that if the final day for any action required hereunder is a Saturday, Sunday or City holiday, such action shall not be required until the next succeeding day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or City holiday. Any reference in this Lease to the word "month" means "calendar month." 39. City's Control of Premises and Vicinity. All common and other facilities provided by City in or about the Premises, including any parking areas, are subject to City's exclusive control and management by City; provided, however, that City's control and management of the Project Improvement Area shall at all times be consistent with the terms and conditions of this Lease. Accordingly, City may do any and all of the following (among other activities in support of the Seattle Center Department or other municipal objectives), all without incurring any liability whatsoever to Center Art: 39.1 Change of Vicinity . City may increase, reduce, or change in any manner whatsoever the number, dimensions, and locations of the walks, buildings, landscaping, utility lines and poles, service areas, roads, sidewalks and parking areas in the vicinity of the Premises. 39.2 Traffic Regulation . City may reasonably regulate all traffic adjacent to the Premises, including the operation and parking of vehicles of Center Art and its invitees, employees, and patrons. 39.3 Display of Promotional Materials. City may erect, display, and remove promotional materials and permit special events on property adjacent to and nearby the Premises and within the Public Use Area. 39.4 Change of Businesses . City may determine or change the size, number, and type and identity of concessions, stores, businesses and operations being conducted or undertaken in the vicinity of the Premises and to operate and to authorize others to engage in any and all forms and locations of business activity at the Seattle Center. 39.5 Entrance Charges . City may impose a reasonable charge for admission to the Seattle Center and the facilities thereon, including during the Bumbershoot Festival; provided, however, that no such general admission charge shall be charged or required by City in connection with access to the Project, it being the intent of the parties that even during such times when a general admission charge for access to the Seattle Center grounds is charged, such general admission charge shall not apply to patrons of the Project whose sole purpose is access to the Premises. 39.6 Rules and Regulations . City may promulgate, from time to time, reasonable rules and regulations regarding the use and occupancy of all areas of the Seattle Center other than the Premises. 39.7 Hours of Operation . City may determine the days and hours the Seattle Center and various business operations other than the Premises will be open to the general public. 40. Signs and Advertising. Center Art will not display, post or distribute any material (including posters) on any part of the Seattle Center or areas of the Premises that are visible to the general public without the City's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Except for those portions of the Premises reserved to the City pursuant to Section 2.7, Center Art may display and post material and signage on the interior of the Premises without the City's approval as long as the materials are not visible from the exterior. Seattle Center has an aggressive business strategy to secure corporate sponsors. In some cases, City may grant a corporate sponsor exclusive product sales or marketing opportunities at Seattle Center. Currently exclusive sponsors may occur in the following categories: coffee, financial services, carbonated beverages, water, energy drink, automotive, insurance, and technology. The Parties agree and acknowledge that Center Art is free to pursue its own sponsors in connection with operations, programming, products and marketing of the Premises notwithstanding any such existing or future Seattle Center corporate sponsorships; provided, however, that with respect to any Project product sales or sponsorships that involve signage, posters or other advertising within the Exhibit and Garden Area or the Retail Space that is clearly visible from the Public Use Area or Common Areas, Center Art shall obtain the prior approval of the Director, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 41. Entire Lease; Amendments; Applicable Law. This Lease and the Exhibits attached hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, together with the construction agreement, if and when executed, set forth the entire agreement of City and Center Art concerning the Project and the Premises, and there are no other agreements or understanding, oral or written, between City and Center Art concerning the Premises except for the separate construction agreement referenced in Section 14.1. Any subsequent modification or amendment of this Lease shall be binding upon City and Center Art only if reduced to writing and signed by the City and an authorized officer of Center Art. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. 42. Partial Invalidity. If any court determines that any provision of this Lease or the application hereof to any person or circumstance is, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each other term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 43. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed by the parties in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and which, taken together, constitute the entire Lease. 44. Section Headings. The section headings used in this Lease are used for purposes of convenience and do not alter in any manner the content of the sections. 45. Context. Whenever appropriate from the context, the use of any gender shall include any other or all genders, and the singular shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular. Words such as "herein," "hereunder" and the like refer to this Lease in its entirety and not to a particular section or subsection hereof. 46. Negotiated Lease. The parties to this Lease acknowledge that it is a negotiated agreement, that they have had the opportunity to have this Lease reviewed by their respective legal counsel, and that the terms and conditions of this Lease are not to be construed against any party on the basis of such party's draftsmanship thereof. 47. Obligation of Center Art Except to the extent assumed by a Leasehold Mortgagee or other acquirer of the leasehold estate pursuant to Section 26, any and all obligations of Center Art under this Lease are enforceable only against Center Art LLC, a Washington limited liability company, and are not enforceable against nor do they impose any liability upon Center Art's officers, directors, members, employees or any other individual or entity, public or private. 48. Relationship of Parties. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as to make the parties hereto partners, associates, joint venturers, or participants in any legal relationship other than that of lessor and lessee. Neither party hereto shall have the power to contract or incur any obligation or liability in the name of the other party. 49. Binding Effect. This Lease shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 50. Recordation. The parties agree that a memorandum of this Lease substantially in the form of Exhibit 8 attached hereto shall be recorded in the office of the King County Recorder. 51. Applicable Law. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Washington. Venue for any legal action under the Lease shall be King County Superior Court.
