AN ORDINANCE authorizing the Superintendent of the Department of Parks and Recreation to enter into a Ground Lease with The Center for Wooden Boats to develop, operate and maintain an Education Center in Lake Union Park. WHEREAS, the Department of Parks and Recreation ("DPR") has jurisdiction over and manages Lake Union Park ("the Park"); and WHEREAS, in 1978, The Center for Wooden Boats ("CWB") was formed with the mission of celebrating the rich, vital and varied small craft heritage by preserving and sharing both the artifacts and the time-tested maritime skills of sailing, paddling, boatbuilding and boat maintenance with the public; and WHEREAS, since 1978, CWB has developed a range of public programs and classes focused on celebrating wooden boats and connecting people to the waters of Lake Union; and WHEREAS, in 1983, CWB began operating from Waterway 4 at the southern end of Lake Union immediately adjacent to what is now Lake Union Park, and has since successfully conducted operations there in a manner consistent with park uses and providing public access to Lake Union; and WHEREAS, in recent years, CWB has identified a need to expand their facilities to accommodate growth in public programming and classes, and to do so in close proximity to their current facilities at Waterway 4; and WHEREAS, recognizing this need, planning and design for Lake Union Park identified a site for CWB to develop and operate a new Education Center that would meet CWB's expansion needs and contribute to the vision of the Park as a center of maritime heritage programs and activities that provides free public access to the park's shoreline and open space areas, as described in Council Resolution 28444; and WHEREAS, the site for the CWB Education Center facility was included in the adopted South Lake Union Park Master Plan described in Council Resolution 30206; and WHEREAS, the Lake Union Park Project Review Committee, the Seattle Parks Foundation Executive Board, and the Superintendant of DPR have approved the Conceptual Design of CWB's proposed Education Center pursuant to Ordinance 121963 which describes the City's relationship with the Seattle Parks Foundation and other stakeholders regarding the design, development, construction, operation and maintenance of Lake Union Park; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the adopted Master Plan, DPR and CWB have negotiated and wish to enter into a Ground Lease for the purpose of setting forth the terms and conditions under which CWB may develop, operate and maintain an Education Center in Lake Union Park for programming and administrative purposes, provide public benefits that will expand public use and enjoyment of the Park, and expand public awareness of the site's unique role in the maritime history of Lake Union; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY OF SEATTLE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, commencing on the Possession Date and until the completion of construction of CWB's Improvements, CWB shall have the exclusive right to use fifteen (15) parking stalls in the parking lot immediately north of Valley Street and depicted on Exhibit A, for CWB staff, volunteer and visitor parking. In addition, from the date CWB receives a notice to proceed with construction from the Superintendent and for so long as is reasonably necessary to carry out the work, CWB and its licensees, invitees and contractors may use these stalls for construction staging; provided, that unless the Superintendent agrees otherwise, at the conclusion of construction CWB shall return the stalls to their preexisting condition. 2.4 Permitted Use. CWB shall use the Premises to construct CWB's Improvements and thereafter, for the presentation of public educational programs involving the construction, renovation, maintenance, storage, display, and use of historically significant wooden boats, including the public rental thereof; for land and water-based maritime heritage skill programs; for related instructional, educational, and recreational programs for the benefit of visitors to the Park, CWB and its members, and City; and for such incidental purposes as administrative offices, fundraising activities and for occasional special events in direct support of CWB's mission. Throughout the term of this Agreement, CWB shall operate at times and in a manner consistent with its Management and Operations Plan described in Section 9.4. In addition, from the Possession Date until commencement of construction of CWB's Improvements and with the Superintendent's prior approval, CWB may erect temporary structures on the Premises and use such structures for public programming as described above. If CWB requires any utility services in connection with such temporary structures or uses, it shall secure them same at CWB's sole expense. With the Superintendent's prior approval, CWB may sell food and beverages, or authorize third-parties to sell food and beverages, from mobile carts or vehicles on the south side of the Premises provided such operations are fully licensed and comply with applicable health and safety laws and regulations. Unless the Superintendent agrees otherwise, there shall be no more than one food vendor operating on the Premises at a time. 2.5 Continuous Operation. CWB shall conduct its business operations on the Premises continuously throughout the Term and shall keep CWB's Improvements open for business during the usual business hours of each and every business day as is customary for businesses of like character except for closures for remodeling, repair or renovation that the Superintendent approves, in advance. The specific hours of operation shall be established as part of the annual Management and Operations Plan described in Section 9.4. 2.6 City Usage. Except for weekends and holidays, City shall have the right to use CWB's Improvements at no cost to City for up to three (3) City-sponsored events each year throughout the Term on an "as available" basis. City may reserve dates by contacting CWB at least one (1) week but not more than thirty (30) days in advance of each proposed use date. If, at the time of the request, there is no event or activity scheduled for the proposed use date, CWB shall reserve CWB's Improvements for City use. Any use by City shall be subject to CWB's standard Facilities Rental Contract, including deposit requirements (but excluding rental payment). 3. Lease Term. 3.1 Term. This Agreement shall be for a term (the "Term") beginning on the Effective Date specified in Section 1.2 and ending on the Expiration Date specified in Section 1.6, unless the Agreement is extended as provided in Section 3.2 or terminated earlier as provided herein. 3.2 Extended Terms. Provided CWB is not in default under this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period at the time of exercise, CWB shall have the option to extend the Term of this Agreement for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years, each, on the same terms and conditions as are set forth herein except that the renewed Agreement shall contain no further renewal option. CWB shall exercise its option(s) to extend the Term by giving City written notice of its intention to do so at the address specified in Section 25, at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then-current Term. Prior to the expiration of the Term, if requested by CWB and provided CWB is not in default hereunder, the Superintendent and CWB shall negotiate in good faith to extend the term of this Agreement but if such negotiations are unsuccessful, the parties shall have no further obligations with respect to one another. 3.3 Waterway #4 Agreement. CWB occupies the waterway and uplands lying east of the Park and commonly known as "Waterway #4", pursuant to that certain Waterway Use Authorization No. 20-080792 from the State of Washington, acting through the Department of Natural Resources ("DNR"). It is a fundamental purpose of this Agreement that City obtain the right to use the approximately 9,500 square feet of land designated as SubArea B on Exhibit A hereto for an expansion of Lake Union Park on or before the Possession Date. Therefore, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if City and DNR have not executed such an agreement by the Possession Date, City may terminate this agreement by written notice to CWB. If City exercises its right of termination, this Agreement shall immediately terminate, CWB will restore the Premises to their condition as of the Effective Date if CWB has altered them in any way, and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations with respect to one another. 4. Rent. 4.1 Payment. CWB shall pay Rent in advance, in equal monthly installments, beginning on the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter, on the 20th day of each month throughout the Term. CWB shall deliver the Rent to City at the address and to the account City specifies, without notice or demand, in lawful money of the United States. The Rent and, if appropriate, as reasonably determined by City, Additional Rent shall be prorated on a daily basis for any partial month within the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CWB shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Rent for the initial Term, without penalty. 4.2 Rent Adjustments. Beginning on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date and every five (5) years thereafter until the expiration or termination of this Agreement (each, a "Rent Adjustment Date"), the Rent shall be increased to an amount determined by multiplying the Rent payable during the year immediately preceding the Rent Adjustment Date by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (All Items) in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bremerton region (1982-84 = 100) ("CPI"), published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, United States Department of Labor, in effect as of the date which is five (5) years prior to the Rent Adjustment Date, and the numerator of which shall be the CPI in effect as of the date immediately preceding the Rent Adjustment Date. By way of example, only, if the CPI on the commencement date of this Agreement is 100 and the CPI most recently issued prior to the first Rent Adjustment Date is 110 and the annual Rent due under this Agreement is $60,000.00, then the total CPI adjustment would be 110% and the annual Rent under this Agreement would increase to $66,000.00 effective as of the Rent Adjustment Date. If the CPI is discontinued, the parties shall agree upon another similar index to be used to calculate the contemplated adjustment and, in the event of an inability to agree, the parties shall request the American Arbitration Association or its successor to appoint a qualified arbitrator to establish an appropriate adjustment standard to measure inflation. Under no circumstances shall the Rent, as adjusted for any period, be less than Rent payable during the immediately preceding period. 4.3 Capital Improvement Rent Offset. 4.3.1 CWB's Capital Improvements Offset. Throughout the Term, CWB shall be entitled to apply as an offset against up to seventy-five percent (75%) of each monthly Rent payment CWB's actual remaining Unamortized Capital Improvement Costs. As used in this Agreement, the term "Capital Improvement Costs" means amounts expended by CWB and directly related to the design, permitting and construction of CWB's Improvements and any subsequent capital improvements to the Premises approved by the Superintendent pursuant to Section 7, below. These costs may include hard and soft costs such as, but not limited to, labor, materials, architecture and engineering fees, permits, licensing fees, equipment costs or rental fees, construction or project management fees, sales tax, and consultants' fees, but shall not include interest on construction financing. Volunteer labor shall not be included in the computation of CWB's Capital Improvement Costs and donated or discounted materials shall be included at their actual cost to CWB. As used in this Agreement, the term "Unamortized Capital Improvement Costs" means, as of any given time, an amount equal to CWB's total Capital Improvement Costs minus any offsets against Rent taken by CWB under this Section 4.3. 4.3.2 Superintendent's Approval of Alterations Budget. Before commencing construction of CWB's Improvements and any subsequent capital improvement to the Premises, CWB shall submit a budget for the same (the "Construction Budget") to the Superintendent for his or her approval, including all hard and soft costs and anticipated use of volunteer labor, by construction element. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Construction Budget, the Superintendent shall indicate the total amount of budgeted construction costs for the improvements that are potentially eligible for the Capital Improvement Rent Offset. 4.3.3 Superintendent's Approval of Alterations' Actual Costs. Not later than six (6) months after CWB finally completes CWB's Improvements, as evidenced by CWB's receipt of a certificate of occupancy therefor (and thereafter, within six (6) months of completing any further Superintendent-approved capital improvement), CWB shall provide the Superintendent with an accounting of its actual costs associated with the capital improvements together with such supporting documentation as the Superintendent may reasonably request. The Superintendent shall certify the final amount of costs expended by CWB in connection with such improvements and this amount shall constitute the amount of CWB's Capital Improvement Rent Offset. 4.4 Public Benefits and Offsets. 4.4.1 Minimum Public Benefits Required. As part of the design and construction of CWB's Improvements, CWB will construct two public restrooms that shall be open and available for public use during CWB's hours of operation. In addition, each year during the Term of this Agreement CWB shall provide free or reduced-cost programs and activities for the general public that are consistent with those described in Exhibit E (the "Public Benefits") and are valued at not less than ten percent (10%) of the Rent for that particular year, prior to the application of any Capital Improvement Rent Offset. Such Public Benefits shall not be eligible for the Public Benefit Program Offset described in Section 4.4.2, and failure to provide the required benefits will constitute a default under Section 21. Together with each annual Management and Operations Plan described in Section 9.4, CWB shall provide a Public Benefits Report supported by documentation that, to the Superintendent's reasonable satisfaction, demonstrates CWB's actual progress during the preceding year in providing Public Benefits. City shall be deemed to have approved the Public Benefits Report unless the Superintendent delivers written objections thereto to CWB within sixty (60) days after the Superintendent receives the report. If the Superintendent delivers written objections to the Report within the sixty (60) day period, the Superintendent and CWB shall negotiate in good faith a written agreement detailing subsequent actions to be taken by CWB that will satisfy the Superintendent's concerns. 4.4.2 Public Program Rental Offset. CWB may request a Public Program Rental Offset against the Rent to reflect the value of programming that is available to the general public at free or reduced cost and that is above and beyond those Public Benefits identified in Exhibit E that are an express condition of this Agreement. In the annual Management and Operations Plan, CWB may identify the amount of Public Program Rental Offset it is requesting for the upcoming calendar year based upon public programming it provided during the preceding calendar year along with any other justification for the request. In cases where public benefits are provided at a discount relative to market rates, the public benefit shall be calculated based on the difference between the market and discounted rates. The Superintendent will respond to the request within thirty (30) days, stating the amount, if any, of the Public Program Rental Offset allowed for the upcoming calendar year, which determination shall rest in the Superintendent's sole discretion. CWB may apply any annual Public Program Rental Offset that the Superintendent approves in a given year against up to a maximum of fifteen percent (15%) of each monthly Rent payment during that year. The Public Program Rental Offset is in addition to the Capital Improvement Rental Offset described in Section 4.3. 4.4.3 Examples. The following examples illustrate the computation and allocation of the requirements allowed under Section 4.4.1 and the offsets permitted under Section 4.4.2: (i) Assume annual Rent payments totaling $50,000. In such case, CWB must provide Public Benefits of no less than $5,000 during that year (i.e., 10% of $50,000). (ii) Assume annual Rent payments totaling $50,000. Assume further that CWB provides Public Benefits totaling $11,000 during that calendar year. In such case, $5,000 worth of Public Benefit would be allocated to the 10% minimum required under Section 4.4.1, and the remaining $6,000 would be allocated to the Public Program Rental Offset allowed under Section 4.4.2. (iii) Assume annual Rent payments totaling $50,000. Assume further that CWB provides Public Benefits totaling $19,000 during that calendar year. In such case, $5,000 worth of Public Benefit would be allocated to the 10% minimum required under Section 4.4.1, and $7,500 of the remaining $14,000 would be allocated to the Public Program Rental Offset allowed under Section 4.4.2 (i.e., 15% of $50,000). 4.5 Park Services Offset. The City may, at no cost to CWB, provide chairs for use by Park visitors. Each evening, CWB shall collect such chairs and store them in a location in the Park as specified from time to time by DPR staff. Each morning, CWB shall remove the chairs from storage and place them about the Park. CWB shall have no responsibility to maintain, repair, or replace such chairs. In return for its willingness to provide the services described in this Section 4.5, CWB may offset up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of each monthly Rent payment. If the City fails to provide such chairs or the chairs subsequently become unavailable, then the parties may agree to have CWB perform another comparable park service. 4.6 Rent Offset Reporting. At least thirty (30) days prior to each anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date throughout the Term, CWB shall report to the Parks Finance Director or his or her designee (i) the current Unamortized Capital Improvement Costs; (ii) the dollar amount of Capital Improvement Rent Offset it is applying to the upcoming year's Rent; (iii) the dollar amount of Public Program Rental Offset it is applying to the upcoming year's Rent; and (iv) the dollar amount of the Park Service Offset it is applying to the upcoming year's Rent. If the amount of the Rental Offsets exceeds the total Rent due and payable under this Agreement for any one or more years, then CWB shall not have any right to recover the balance from City, which balance shall be deemed to have been donated to the City upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement. 5. Late Charge; Interest. If CWB 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. Recordkeeping and Reporting; Audit. CWB shall keep true and complete books of account setting forth CWB's expenditures relating to CWB's Improvements and any subsequent capital improvements, and all public programming for which CWB claims any Rent offset. City shall be allowed to inspect CWB's books of account at CWB's office upon five (5) days' prior written notice to CWB and to procure audits thereof by an auditor at City's sole cost and expense. CWB shall retain all books of accounting and any other information that will affect the determination of the Rent for a period of six (6) years after the last day of the period that such particular record covers. 7. Initial Improvements and Subsequent Alterations. 7.1 CWB's Initial Improvements. The parties acknowledge and agree that the construction of CWB's Improvements, as generally described in Exhibit B and anticipated to cost approximately Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000) in hard and soft costs (including the estimated fair market value of volunteer labor and donated materials), is a fundamental purpose of this Agreement. Provided there is no significant expense to DPR, DPR will cooperate with CWB in its efforts to secure such permits and approvals from other City departments or other governmental agencies as are necessary to construct CWB's Improvements. 7.2 Approval of Plans and Specifications, Schedule and Construction Team. 7.2.1 The parties acknowledge and agree that the Superintendent, in his role as Superintendant and in compliance with the Agreement between the City and the Parks Foundation, which has also given its approval, has approved the conceptual design for CWB's Improvements attached hereto as Exhibit B, and that any changes or refinements to that design will require the Superintendent's concurrence. Any redesign of or material modifications or changes to the approved conceptual design shall be subject to the approval of the Superintendent. 7.2.2 CWB shall cause detailed plans and specifications for CWB's Improvements to be prepared that are consistent with the approved conceptual design. CWB shall submit such plans and specifications, together with a detailed construction schedule and a description of CWB's proposed construction team, to the Superintendent for review and approval, in his sole discretion. The Superintendent will approve the plans and specifications, schedule and construction team, or provide CWB with written comments thereon, within sixty (60) days of receipt. If the Superintendent does not deliver written comments on any of the plans and specifications, schedule or construction team within the sixty (60) day period, then such item shall be deemed approved by the Superintendent for purposes of this Agreement, only. If the Superintendent delivers written comments within the sixty (60) day period, CWB shall make such modifications to the plans and specifications, schedule and construction team as will address the Superintendent's concerns. Within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date the Superintendent's concerns are fully resolved, he will provide CWB with a Letter of Approval of the above elements. 7.3 Construction Commencement. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.5, CWB shall commence construction of CWB's Improvements within four (4) years of the Effective Date. If CWB fails to commence construction of CWB's Improvements by such date, the City may terminate this agreement by providing written notice to CWB and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations with respect to one another. 7.4 Inspection. City shall have the right to inspect the construction site at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to CWB to ensure construction is in compliance with this Agreement and with the approved plans and specifications. 7.5 CWB's Funding Responsibilities. CWB shall be fully responsible for and shall promptly pay all costs associated with CWB's Improvements including, but not limited to, all design, permitting and construction costs. City will complete the City Investment, but will not provide any funds for CWB's Improvements. Prior to commencing construction of any portion of CWB's Improvements, CWB shall present evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Parks Finance Director that it has raised funds (i.e., obtained cash or pledges or other commitments for grants, and/or donations) equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the reasonable anticipated cost of CWB's Improvements, including a reasonable contingency of not less than fifteen percent (15%) of the anticipated construction costs for cost overruns, changes and unforeseen conditions. If CWB fails to present such satisfactory evidence, City may terminate this agreement by providing written notice to CWB, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations with respect to one another and CWB shall restore the restore the Premises to their original condition if CWB shall have altered them in any way. In determining whether CWB has satisfied its funding requirement, volunteer labor shall be deemed donated at fair market value, based on current local industry standards and 100% of the volunteer commitment must be supported by firm pledges. 7.6 LEED Certification. CWB's Initial Improvements shall qualify for certification at the gold level under the US Green Building Council's rating system. CWB shall apply for and obtain the certification as part of the design and construction process and shall thereafter maintain such certification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if CWB's Improvements will not qualify for LEED gold certification without making improvements to the surrounding site that would constitute a material change to the Park design, or there are other extenuating circumstances, then the Superintendent may determine that certification at the LEED silver level is acceptable. 7.7 Subsequent Improvements and Alterations. Following construction of CWB's Improvements, CWB shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises without first submitting to the Superintendent professionally-prepared and stamped plans and specifications and a construction schedule for such work and obtaining the Superintendent's prior written approval thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no approval shall be required for interior, non-structural alterations, additions, or improvements to the Premises. 7.8 Alteration Standards and Requirements. CWB covenants that all alterations, additions and improvements it causes to be made to the Premises will be constructed at CWB's sole costs and expense and will be (a) completed by licensed contractors approved by City; (b) built in accordance with Superintendent-approved plans and specifications and any conditions imposed by the Superintendent in connection therewith; (c) in conformity with first-class, commercial standards; (d) insured and bonded, for City's benefit, by companies acceptable to City; (e) designed and constructed in a manner that does not negatively affect the structural integrity of the Premises or any of the Premises' systems; and (f) does not invalidate or otherwise affect the construction or any system warranty then in effect with respect to the Premises. CWB shall secure all governmental permits and approvals required for the work, and shall comply or cause its contractors to comply with all other applicable governmental requirements and restrictions, including RCW 39.12 pertaining to prevailing wages. 7.9 As-Built Drawings. Within ninety (90) days after the completion of CWB's Improvements, CWB shall deliver to the Superintendent a full set of "as-built" plans showing the details of the improvements made to the Premises by CWB. CWB shall deliver to the Superintendent as-built drawing for all future alterations, additions and improvements it makes to the Premises if typically produced for alterations and improvement of like character. 8. Ownership of Alterations. All alterations, additions and improvements to the Premises shall become City's property at the expiration or termination of this Agreement. At the Superintendent's request, CWB shall execute a deed or bill of sale in favor of City with respect to such alterations and/or improvements. 9. CWB's Operations. 9.1 Use of Premises. As City's willingness to enter into this Agreement with CWB was predicated, in part, on the nature of CWB's business, and the compatibility of such business with the use of the remainder of the Park, CWB shall use CWB's Improvements only for the Permitted Use and shall not use or permit the use of any portion of the Premises for any other business or purpose or in any manner inconsistent with this Agreement without City's prior written consent. City shall at all times have exclusive control and management of the Park including those areas reserved to City for park purposes hereunder and CWB shall promptly comply, at its sole cost and expense, with such reasonable rules and regulations relating to the use of the Premises and the Park as City, from time to time, may promulgate, provided that such rules and regulations shall not materially interfere with CWB's authorized business operations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, CWB expressly agrees that it will not cause any waste, debris or similar materials to accumulate anywhere on the Park, whether within or without the Premises and that any such materials that CWB permits to so accumulate shall immediately be deemed abandoned and available for disposal, at CWB's expense. 9.2 Alcoholic Beverages. Although the Premises are located in a City park area managed by City's Department of Parks and Recreation, prohibitions on the serving and consumption of alcoholic beverages on the Premises shall not apply to the extent that CWB may permit alcoholic beverages to be served within CWB's Improvements but not outside, unless pursuant to a Parks Department permit, and provided, further, that CWB is responsible for seeing that all required liquor permits/licenses are obtained. 9.3 Third-Party and High-Capacity Events. CWB may license the use of all or part of CWB's Improvements to individuals or organizations for special events, each event lasting no longer than three (3) consecutive days. Since Lake Union Park has limited capacity to handle multiple events with large numbers of attendees, if CWB reasonably anticipates that more than 150 people will be in attendance at any event on the Premises, CWB shall provide City with no less than thirty (30) days' advance written notice of the event. If City determines that the event would conflict with other high-capacity events that have already been scheduled to take place at the same time, City shall notify CWB within five (5) business days after receipt of CWB's notice. Upon receipt of such notice, CWB shall either reschedule the event or reduce the size of the event to less than 150 attendees. 9.4 Management and Operations Plan. CWB shall prepare and submit to the Superintendent, for his or her approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), an annual plan for the management and operation of the Premises. The first plan shall be due on or before the date that is thirty (30) days prior to CWB's occupancy of the Premises for operational purposes, and each subsequent plan shall be due on or before December 31st. The Management and Operations Plan shall include such information as the Superintendent may reasonably specify from time to time and as is typically required for comparable Parks facilities, but at a minimum shall include a description of CWB's proposed capital improvements to the Premises (other than CWB's Improvements); the anticipated programming for the upcoming year; the proposed hours of operation for the upcoming year, CWB's estimate of the number of people served during the preceding year and projected for the upcoming year; the dollar amount of scholarships given for the past year and anticipated to be given for the upcoming year; and criteria for scholarship awards. City shall be deemed to have approved the Management and Operations Plan (and all uses and events noted therein) unless the Superintendent delivers to CWB written objections thereto within sixty (60) days after submission of the Management and Operations Plan to City. If the Superintendent delivers written comments on the Management and Operations Plan within the sixty (60) day period, City and CWB shall negotiate in good faith such revisions to the Management and Operations Plan as will satisfy the Superintendent's concerns. CWB may amend or modify the plan from time to time with the prior approval of the Superintendent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. City shall be deemed to have approved the amended plan (and all uses and events noted therein) unless it rejects the amended plan in writing within twenty (20) days. 9.5 Maritime Heritage Group. CWB shall collaborate with City and certain other maritime heritage organizations resident at South Lake Union in City's management of the Maritime Heritage Group, which will focus on cultural, educational and recreational maritime-related activities at the "Historic Wharf" at Lake Union Park. The Maritime Heritage Group will be documented through agreements between the various organizations and City and will establish the basis for an ongoing collaboration on cultural, educational and recreational maritime-related activities. Through the Maritime Heritage Group, the parties envision an integrated historic ship visitor experience that enhances Lake Union Park and the Historic Wharf and encourages knowledge and support for the preservation of the region's diverse history, particularly including its maritime history. City, by and through its Superintendent, will be responsible for management, at City's expense, of the Maritime Heritage Group. CWB will cooperate with the other maritime heritage participants in the Maritime Heritage Group and will participate in the Maritime Heritage Group. CWB will enter into collaborative agreements from time to time as desirable and appropriate with the Museum of History and Industry, Northwest Seaport and the Virginia V Foundation (and with similar organizations in the event the foregoing named entities' presence at South Lake Union ends) relating to, among other things, marketing, programming and reasonable shared use of appropriate facilities for public accommodations (such as ticketing, merchandizing and way-finding facilities), parking and access. 9.6 Compliance with Laws; Nondiscrimination. 9.6.1 General Obligation. CWB shall not use or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used for any purpose in violation of any municipal, county, state or federal law, ordinance or regulation, or for any purpose offensive to the standards of the community. CWB shall promptly comply, at its sole cost and expense, and ensure that its contractors and agents comply, with all laws, ordinances and regulations now in force or hereafter adopted relating to or affecting the renovation or improvement of the Premises or condition or use or occupancy of the Premises during the term of this Agreement. 9.6.2 Nondiscrimination. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.6.1, CWB shall comply with all applicable equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination laws of the United States, the State of Washington, and The City of Seattle, including but not limited to Chapters 14.04, 14.10 and 20.42 of the Seattle Municipal Code, as they may be amended from time to time, and rules, regulations, orders and directives of the associated administrative agencies and their officers. 9.7 Liens and Encumbrances. CWB shall keep the Premises free and clear of, and shall indemnify, defend and hold City harmless from, any and all, liens and encumbrances arising or growing out of any act or omission of CWB or any of its officers, employees, agents or subtenants. CWB shall inform City in writing of any lien filed against the Premises within ten (10) days of the filing date of the lien. If any lien is filed against the Premises, CWB shall either cause the same to be fully discharged and released of record within ten (10) days after City's written demand therefor or, within such period, provide City with cash or other security acceptable to City in an amount equal to one and one-half (11/2) times the amount of the claimed lien as security for its prompt removal. City shall have the right to disburse such security to cause the removal of the lien if City deems such necessary, in City's sole discretion. The indemnification and defense obligation of this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. 9.8 Firearms Policy. CWB agrees to adopt and implement a policy prohibiting any person, except for law enforcement officers and on-duty security personnel, from possessing firearms on the Premises. 10. Hazardous Substances. 10.1 Definitions. For the purpose of this Article, the following terms are as defined below unless the context clearly requires a different meaning: A. "Environmental or Safety Law" means and any and all federal, state, regional, local or international statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, orders, court or regulatory agency directives, permits, licenses, governmental authorizations and common law causes of action that apply to (1) any hazardous substance or material regulated or restricted under any state or federal law; (2) any other pollutant, contaminant, or waste; (3) the health or safety of persons; or (4) the protection of the environment or land use. "Environmental or Safety Law" includes past and future amendments and supplements to such laws, and all regulations promulgated thereunder. B. "Hazardous Substances" means any hazardous, toxic, or dangerous substance, waste, or material that is regulated under any Environmental or Safety Law. C. "Existing Hazardous Substances" means any Hazardous Substances existing on, in or under the Premises on the date of this Agreement. D. "Remedial Work" means all activities that are performed by or on behalf of CWB or the City in connection with the identification, investigation, assessment, cleanup, removal, mitigation, monitoring or containment of Hazardous Substances to meet the requirements of any law, regulation or ordinance or which are ordered by any court or any other governmental agency. 10.2 Compliance with Environmental and Safety Laws; Correction of Violations. Throughout the Term of this Agreement, CWB shall conduct its activities on the Premises in compliance with all Environmental or Safety Laws. If CWB or any of CWB's employees, agents, licensees or contractors violates any applicable Environmental or Safety Law or any of the terms of this Agreement concerning the presence or use of Hazardous Substances or the handling or storing of Hazardous Substances, upon receipt of notice of such violation or the expiration of all challenges and appeals of such notice, whichever occurs later, CWB shall promptly take such action as is necessary to mitigate and correct the violation. If CWB does not act in a prudent and prompt manner, or if the Superintendent has reason to believe that CWB or CWB's agent or contractor is in violation of any Environmental or Safety Law, or that CWB's actions or omissions present a threat of violation or a threat of damage to the Premises or CWB's Improvements, the City reserves the right, but not the obligation, upon reasonable prior notice to CWB, to act in place of CWB (for which purpose, only, CWB hereby appoints the City as its agent), to come onto the Premises or CWB's Improvements and to take such action as is necessary to ensure compliance or to mitigate the violation, all at CWB's sole cost and expense. 10.3 Hazardous Substances Discovered During Construction. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.7, CWB shall initially bear all costs and expenses of remedying any and all environmental contamination by an Existing Hazardous Substance in, on or under the Premises, the presence of which contamination is discovered in preparation for or during any construction or renovation undertaken by or for CWB. CWB shall immediately notify the Superintendent of any such discovery and the parties' designated representatives shall immediately meet and confer concerning the appropriate actions to be taken for investigating and remediating or removing such Hazardous Substance(s). The parties shall work together in good faith to resolve matters regarding contamination with a minimum of delay to CWB's construction and any dispute relating thereto that cannot be resolved by the parties' designated representatives shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 28. 10.4 Other Hazardous Substances. CWB shall promptly remove any and all Hazardous Substances released on the Premises or in CWB's Improvements by CWB or any of its employees, agents, licensees or contractors during the term of this Agreement. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, CWB shall remove from the Premises and CWB's Improvements all Hazardous Substances stored on site as a result of any activities by or for CWB or any activities associated with the operation of the education center. 10.5 Standards for Removal and Remediation. CWB shall perform any removal and any remediation of Hazardous Substances required hereunder to the Superintendent's reasonable satisfaction. CWB shall make available for inspection at CWB's place of business, upon reasonable request by the City, all records pertaining to remediation and disposal, and shall not destroy any such records without prior City approval. 10.6 Completion of Remedial Work; Accounting; Offset. Once CWB has completed any Remedial Work required hereunder, CWB shall provide the City with invoices and documentation establishing the nature, extent and cost of the work (the "Remedial Work Accounting"). The City shall have thirty (30) days to review the Remedial Work Accounting. If the City disagrees with the accounting, the City shall provide written notice of its disagreement within thirty (30) days. If the City does not provide written notice of disagreement within thirty (30) days of actual receipt of a Remedial Work Accounting, the costs of the Remedial Work Accounting shall be deemed approved. With respect to the remediation of Existing Hazardous Substances, only, the amount contained in the Remedial Work Accounting shall be included in CWB's Capital Improvement Costs and offset against the Rent as described in Section 4.3. 10.7 Right of Termination. If in the opinion of CWB, the cost of Remedial Work (other than Remedial Work required under Section 10.4 above) is reasonably anticipated to exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00), then CWB may notify the City in writing of its intention to terminate this Agreement at the end of thirty (30) days. In the event of termination, CWB shall thereafter have no further obligation to construct CWB's Improvements and CWB shall restore the Premises to their condition immediately prior to the date of this Agreement. 10.8 Reimbursement of City Costs. In addition to any remedy provided above, the City shall be entitled to full reimbursement from CWB whenever the City incurs any cost directly resulting from a violation by CWB or CWB's employees, agents or contractors of any Environmental or Safety Law or of the terms of this Article, including, but not limited to, the costs of any investigation, clean-up and other remedial activity; the fees of consultants, contractors, and attorneys; fines and penalties assessed directly against the City; injuries to third persons or other property. 10.9 Release and Indemnification. In addition to all other indemnification obligations contained in this Agreement, CWB shall defend, indemnify and hold the City free and harmless from any and all claims, causes of action, regulatory demands, liabilities, fines, penalties, losses, damages, consequential damages and expenses, including without limitation environmental cleanup or other remedial costs (and including the fees of consultants, contractors and attorneys, costs and all other reasonable litigation expenses when incurred and whether incurred in defense of actual litigation or in reasonable anticipation of litigation), whether made, commenced or incurred during the term of this Agreement or after the expiration or termination of this Agreement if arising out of any of the following: (i) the presence on, in or under the Premises or CWB's Improvements or the migration from the Premises or CWB's Improvements of any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises or CWB's Improvements by the CWB or by any of its employees, agents or contractors, (ii) CWB's breach of any provision of this Section 10, or (iii) any claims against the City by CWB or any of its employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors based upon delay in construction or other activity resulting from Remedial Work or other environmental remediation activities conducted during the term of the Agreement. 11. Utilities. 11.1 General. In constructing CWB's Improvements, CWB shall cause all utilities serving the Premises to be separately metered and billed directly to CWB to the extent practicable. CWB shall pay when due to the appropriate providers or to City, all charges for utilities for the Premises, including but not limited to, electricity, water and sewer, Surface Water Management Fees, data and telecommunications. 11.2 Refuse Collection; Recycling of Waste Materials. CWB shall be responsible for proper storage and removal of trash, litter pickup and recycling, consistent with City standards and Park rules and regulations. 11.3 Interruption. Except as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of City, City shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage to person or property caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption or failure of utility services due to any cause whatsoever, and no temporary interruption or failure of such services shall relieve CWB from any of CWB's obligations hereunder or give CWB a right of action against City for damages. City has no obligation to provide emergency or backup power or other utilities for the Premises. 12. Licenses and Taxes. 12.1 Payment of License Fees and Taxes. Without any deduction or offset whatsoever, CWB shall be liable for, and shall pay prior to delinquency, all taxes (including leasehold excise and personal property taxes) and license and excise fees arising out of and applicable to CWB's use of the Premises, including all fees, charges, or costs for any governmental inspections or examinations relating to CWB's use and occupancy of the Premises. 12.2 Contests. CWB shall have the right to contest the amount and validity of any taxes by appropriate legal proceedings, but this shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving CWB of its covenant to pay any such taxes. City shall not be subjected to any liability or for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection with any such proceeding brought by CWB, and CWB hereby covenants to indemnify and hold City harmless from any such costs or expenses. The indemnification obligation contained in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. 13. Care of Premises. 13.1 General Obligation. CWB shall take good care of all improvements on the Premises and shall promptly repair all damage done to the improvements, normal wear and tear excluded. CWB shall maintain the improvements in a clean and neat fashion and to a standard found at other Parks properties similar in age, level of public use, and public visibility and to the Superintendent's reasonable satisfaction, permitting no objectionable odors to be emitted from the improvements and shall neither commit waste nor permit any waste to be committed thereon. CWB shall not permit any accumulation of trash on or about the Premises. 13.2 Minor and Major Maintenance Obligation. CWB shall be solely responsible for all maintenance of the improvements erected on the Premises during the Term including, but not limited to, repairs of cracked or broken glass, regular exterior painting and masonry maintenance, roof repairs and replacement and HVAC repair and replacement. The foregoing sentence does not extend to maintenance occasioned by an act or omission of City or its officers, agents, employees, or contractors, for which City shall be responsible. Subject to the provisions of Section 13.3, City shall maintain the Park common areas to the standard typical of other, similar park properties. 13.3 Custodial Service for Premises. At all times and at its own expense, CWB shall keep the interior of all improvements on the Premises, including the public restrooms, the entrance to the improvements and areas within ten (10) feet of the improvements' exterior walls in a neat, clean, safe, and sanitary condition; provided, however, that CWB shall have no obligation to maintain any landscaping or other Park amenities. CWB shall furnish dumpsters, which shall be located within the footprint of CWB's Improvements, and all cleaning supplies, materials and janitorial services needed to perform its obligations under this Section. CWB shall be responsible for the cost of dumpster and any pick-up service. CWB shall remove all garbage and recycling from the Premises at regular intervals and deposit the same into CWB's dumpster(s). 13.4 Boat Haul Out. During the term of this Agreement, CWB shall be entitled to the nonexclusive right to use the boat haul out area identified on Exhibit A to launch and retrieve boats. In no event shall access to CWB's boat haul out area be unreasonably or permanently impaired. 13.5 Joint Annual Inspection of Premises; Remedial Action Obligation. CWB shall participate in an annual inspection of the Premises with City and shall take any and all action that is consistent with the terms of this Agreement that City may specify as necessary to maintain and operate the Premises in a clean and safe manner. 13.6 City Remedy upon CWB's Failure to Maintain Premises. If CWB fails to maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair, City shall give CWB notice to undertake such work as is reasonably required to so maintain the Premises. If CWB fails to commence such work within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of City's notice and to diligently prosecute it to completion, then City shall have the right, at its option and in addition to all other remedies, to undertake such work and to invoice CWB for the costs reasonably incurred by City in connection therewith and CWB shall promptly pay the same as Additional Rent. City shall have no liability to CWB for any damage, inconvenience, or interference with CWB's use of the Premises as a result of City's performing any such work, except to the extent it is City's, or its agents' or contractors' gross negligence or intentional misconduct. 13.7 Installation or Integration of Works of Visual Art on Premises. CWB agrees not to install or integrate on or in the Premises any "work of visual art," as that term is defined in the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990, as now existing or as later amended, unless CWB has obtained a full and unconditional waiver of the creator's "moral rights" with respect to such artwork. 13.8 CWB's Indemnification of City against Liability under Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990. CWB shall protect, defend, and hold City harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, actions or causes of action, damages and expenses (including attorneys' fees and costs) arising as a consequence of (a) the installation or integration of any work of visual art on or into the Premises; or (b) the destruction, distortion, mutilation or other modification of the art work that results by reason of its removal; or (c) any breach of Section 13.7 of this Agreement; or (d) any violation of the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990, as now existing or hereafter amended; by CWB or any of its officers, employees or agents. This indemnification obligation shall exist regardless of whether City or any other person employed by City has knowledge of such installation, integration, or removal or has consented to any such action or is not required to give prior consent to any such action. The indemnification and defense obligation contained in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. 14. Signs and Advertising. 14.1 Signs, Generally. Except for CWB's customary interpretive signage and signs authorized by the Superintendent in connection with the approval of CWB's Improvements, temporary signs permitted under Section 14.2, and the sign described in Section 14.3, CWB shall not inscribe, post, place, or in any manner display any sign, notice, picture, poster, or any advertising matter whatsoever on the exterior portions of the Premises, without the Superintendent's prior written consent. CWB shall remove all signage at the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and repair any damage or injury to the Premises caused by such removal. 14.2 Temporary Signs. Temporary signs or banners not more than 24 square feet in size may be displayed on the Premises to advertise a special event beginning two weeks immediately before the event advertised, through the conclusion of such event. 14.3 Recognition. CWB shall install one sign on or about the exterior of the Premises with the Seattle Parks Department logo and a statement recognizing Seattle Parks and Recreation's ownership of Premises. The design and location of such sign are subject to the Superintendent's approval. 15. Surrender of Premises. At the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, CWB shall deliver the Premises, including any improvements thereon, to City in good repair and in a clean and neat condition, ordinary wear and tear, casualty, and condemnation excepted. Prior to such return, CWB shall remove its moveable trade fixtures and appliances and equipment that have not been attached to the Premises and shall repair any damage resulting from their removal. Any personal property remaining on the Premises will be deemed abandoned and City may remove the same at CWB's expense. In no event shall CWB remove floor coverings; heating or ventilating equipment; lighting equipment or fixtures; window or wall coverings; or other elements for which a Capital Improvement Rent Offset was granted, unless otherwise specifically directed by City in writing at the time when City approves their installation. CWB's obligations under this Section 15 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. 16. Waiver; Indemnification. 16.1 CWB's Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, CWB shall indemnify, defend (using legal counsel reasonably acceptable to City) and save City, City's officers, agents, employees and contractors, harmless from all claims, suits, losses, damages, fines, penalties, liabilities and expenses (including City's actual and reasonable personnel and overhead costs and attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in connection with claims, regardless of whether such claims involve litigation) resulting from any actual or alleged injury (including death) of any person or from any actual or alleged loss of or damage to, any property arising out of or in connection with (i) CWB's occupation, use or improvement of the Premises, or that of any of its employees, agents or contractors, (ii) CWB's breach of its obligations hereunder, or (iii) any act or omission of CWB or any licensee or assignee of CWB, or of any officer, agent, employee, guest or invitee of any of the same in or about the Premises. CWB agrees that the foregoing indemnity specifically covers actions brought by its own employees. The indemnification and defense obligations contained in this Section shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. The foregoing indemnity is specifically and expressly intended to, constitute a waiver of CWB's immunity under Washington's Industrial Insurance Act, RCW Title 51, to the extent necessary to provide City with a full and complete indemnity from claims made by CWB and its employees, to the extent of their negligence. CWB shall promptly notify City of casualties or accidents occurring in or about the Premises. CITY AND CWB ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY SPECIFICALLY NEGOTIATED AND AGREED UPON THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 16. 16.2 Waiver of Subrogation. CWB hereby waives any and all rights of subrogation against City for losses covered by insurance and will have its insurer endorse any policy required under this Agreement, to provide for such waiver. 17. Insurance. At all times throughout the Term of this Agreement, CWB shall comply with the requirements of Exhibit D with respect to insurance. 18. Assignment or Sublease by CWB. 18.1 Assignment or Sublease. CWB shall not sublet or encumber the whole or any part of the Premises, nor shall this Agreement or any interest thereunder be assignable or transferable by operation of law or by any process or proceeding of any court or otherwise without the prior written consent of the Superintendent, whose consent may be given, withheld or conditioned in his, her, or its sole discretion. An assignment of this Agreement to a lender for security purposes shall constitute an assignment requiring the prior written consent of the Superintendent. The granting of consent to a given transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the consent requirement as to future transfers. Any assignment or sublease without the Superintendent's prior written consent, at the Superintendent's option, shall be void. No assignment or sublease shall release CWB from primary liability hereunder. Each assignment and sublease shall be by an instrument in writing in form satisfactory to the Superintendent. 18.2 Fees Due to City upon Transfer. If the Superintendent consents to any assignment or subletting, CWB shall pay the Superintendent a fee not to exceed twenty-three and one-half percent (23.5%) of one month's installment of Rent due (before any offset) to City, for expenses incurred in connection with processing of documents necessary to the giving of such consent and the additional monitoring and administration related to the same. 19. Destruction. If the improvements to the Premises are rendered partially or totally untenantable by fire or other casualty, and if the damage is repairable within twenty-four (24) months from the date of the occurrence, then, if insurance proceeds or self-insurance coverages are available to pay the full cost of the repairs (except for the deductible amounts), CWB shall repair the Premises with due diligence and in addition, shall promptly repair, at its sole cost and expense, all damage to its personal and business property. If the improvements to the Premises are repaired, the Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated in the proportion that the untenantable portion of the Premises bears to the whole thereof, as City determines, for the period from the date of the casualty to the completion of the repairs. If the damage to the improvements to the Premises is uninsured or cannot be repaired within twenty-four (24) months from the date of the occurrence, CWB may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days' written notice to City. If this Agreement is terminated due to casualty, City shall be entitled to all insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss to the improvements to the Premises. 20. Eminent Domain. 20.1 Taking. If all of the Premises are taken by Eminent Domain, this Agreement shall terminate as of the date CWB is required to vacate the Premises and all Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid to that date. The term "Eminent Domain" shall include the taking or damaging of property by, through or under any governmental or statutory authority, and any purchase or acquisition in lieu thereof, whether the damaging or taking is by government or any other person. If a taking of any part of the Premises by Eminent Domain renders the remainder thereof unusable for CWB's business, in the reasonable judgment of CWB, CWB may terminate this Agreement by written notice given to City not more than thirty (30) days after City gives CWB written notice of the taking, and such termination shall be effective as of the date when CWB is required to vacate the portion of the Premises so taken. If this Agreement is so terminated, all Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid to the date of termination. Whenever any portion of the Premises is taken by Eminent Domain and this Agreement is not terminated, City, at its expense, shall proceed with all reasonable dispatch to restore, to the extent of available proceeds and to the extent it is reasonably prudent to do so, the remainder of the land to the condition they were in immediately prior to such taking, and CWB, at its expense, shall proceed with all reasonable dispatch to restore its personal property and all improvements made by it to the Premises to the same condition they were in immediately prior to such taking, to the extent award is available therefor. The Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be reduced from the date CWB is required to partially vacate the Premises in the same proportion that the usable area of the Premises taken bears to the total usable area of the Premises prior to taking. 20.2 Award. If this Agreement is terminated as a result of Eminent Domain, City reserves all rights to the entire damage award or payment for such taking and CWB waives all claim whatsoever against City for damages for termination of its leasehold interest in the Premises or for interference with its business. CWB hereby grants and assigns to City any right CWB may now have or hereafter acquire to such damages and agrees to execute and deliver such further instruments of assignment as City, from time to time, may request. CWB, however, shall have the right to claim from the condemning authority all compensation that may be recoverable by CWB on account of any loss incurred by CWB in moving CWB's merchandise, furniture, trade fixtures and equipment and the cost of restoring its personal property. 21. Default by CWB. 21.1 Definition. If CWB violates, breaches, or fails to keep or perform any term, provision, covenant, or any obligation of this Agreement; or if CWB files or is the subject of a petition in bankruptcy, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed for CWB's assets or if CWB makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if CWB is adjudicated insolvent, or becomes subject to any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law whether domestic or foreign, or liquidated, voluntarily or otherwise; then CWB shall be deemed in default ("Default"). 21.2 City Remedies. If CWB has defaulted and such Default continues or has not been remedied to the reasonable satisfaction of the Superintendent within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been provided to CWB, then City shall have the following nonexclusive rights and remedies at its option: (i) to cure such default on CWB's behalf and at CWB's sole expense and to charge CWB for all actual and reasonable costs and expenses incurred by City in effecting such cure as an Additional Charge; (ii) to terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that if the nature of CWB'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 CWB shall not be in default if it commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. 21.3 Re-entry by City upon Termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement, City may reenter the Premises, take possession thereof, and remove all persons therefrom, for which actions CWB shall have no claim thereon or hereunder. CWB 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 CWB. City shall have the right to sell such stored property, after reasonable prior notice to CWB 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 CWB to City; the balance, if any, shall be paid to CWB. 21.4 Vacation or Abandonment. If CWB vacates or abandons the Premises in their entirety and fails to re-occupy them within thirty (30) days after City (1) delivers a notice to CWB's notice address set forth in Section 1.9, above, demanding such re-occupancy and (2) mails by certified or registered mail a copy of the notice to any forwarding address given by CWB to City in writing, CWB shall be in Default under this Agreement. 21.5 City's Non-exclusive Remedies upon Termination due to Default of CWB. Notwithstanding any re-entry by City and anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of the termination of this Agreement due to the Default of CWB, the liability of CWB for all sums due under this Agreement provided herein shall not be extinguished for the balance of the Term of this Agreement. CWB shall also be liable to City for any other amount (excluding consequential or specific damages) necessary to compensate City for all the detriment proximately caused by CWB's failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement 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 21.5 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. 22. 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 CWB shall not be deemed a waiver of, or alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy that City may have under this Agreement 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 Agreement 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 Agreement, 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 Agreement. 23. Quiet Enjoyment. CWB, upon fully complying with and promptly performing all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement on its part to be performed, and upon the prompt and timely payment of all sums due hereunder, shall have and quietly enjoy the Premises for the Term set forth herein. 24. Holding Over. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties hereto, any holding over by CWB after the expiration of the Agreement Term, whether or not consented to by City, shall be construed as a tenancy from month-to-month on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Either party may terminate any holdover tenancy by written notice delivered to the other party not later than twenty (20) days prior to the end of the final month. If CWB fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement without City's written consent, CWB shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless City from all losses, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant arising out of such failure. CWB's obligations under this Section shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. 25. Notices.

The public will be able to watch or participate in the restoration of historic small craft and the facility will provide support for year-round outdoor activities on the water and at the Historic Ships Wharf, the seawall, and the Model Boat Pond. General public admission will be free. 2. School Programs. Develop and offer on-going educational programs for elementary, middle and high school classrooms and provide reduced fee and other scholarship assistance to students from schools that participate in federal free or reduced price school lunch programs or other groups that demonstrate need.
