KNOW ALL BY THESE PRESENTS:
This Lease Agreement is made and entered into by and between
the City of Corpus Christi, Texas, a municipal corporation (the
"City") and the Las Carabelas Columbus Fleet Association, a Texas
nonprofit corporation (the "Association") on the terms and condi-
tions hereinafter set forth.
1. LEASED LAND: The City in consideration of the Associa-
tion's faithful performance of the covenants described herein,
leases to the Association the land described on Exhibit A attached
hereto and incorporated by reference, hereinafter called the
"Leased Land".
2. DEVELOPMENT OF LEASED LAND: The City agrees to construct
improvements on the Leased Land and the areas adjacent thereto
according to plans and specifications consistent with the conceptu-
al plan presented by the Association to the City attached as
Exhibit B hereto and as otherwise approved by the Association and
the City Manager, or his designee. Such plans and specifications
shall provide for the display of the three Columbus ships, being
the Niha, the Pinta and the Santa Maria (herein "Las Carabelas") on
the Leased Land and all other improvements necessary for their
operation as a museum facility.
3. CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION: In order to finance the
improvements required under this Lease, the City agrees to arrange
Foul
for the sale of $2,910,000 in certificates of obligation (the
"Certificates"). The Certificates shall be issued in such
denominations and maturities as the City shall prescribe; provided
that, the debt service requirements shall generally follow the
objective of providing amortization of the Certificates with equal
installments of principal and interest over a period of twenty
years.
4. TERM: The term of this Lease shall commence on
of execution below, and shall continue until midnight of
2015, subject to earlier termination as provided herein.
5. RENTALS: The Association agrees to pay to the
its designated agent, rentals equal to the debt service
ments on the Certificates described above, semi-annually,
the date
July 31,
City, or
require -
at least
thirty (30) days prior to the interest payment dates on the
Certificates. In the event of any default in such lease payments
and the City is required to access the debt service reserve fund to
make the required payment on the Certificates, the Association
agrees to cure such default on demand. This consideration is given
in addition to the other covenants and obligations of the Associa-
tion provided under this Lease Agreement.
6. PERMITTED USE: The Leased Land shall be used for the
display of Las Carabelas, and in connection with the direct
operation of such display by the Association as a museum or in such
other activity, not otherwise constituting an unrelated trade or
business within the meaning of section 513 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (the "Code") of an organization exempt from federal
-2-
income taxation by virtue of being described in section 501(c)(3)
of the Code.
The Association understands that the City has used
proceeds of tax-exempt obligations to provide the Leased Land and
agrees that its use (or any use of such land otherwise permitted by
the Association) will comply with the requirements of section 141-
150 of the Code so as not to adversely affect the tax-exempt status
of such obligations. For purposes of the foregoing, the Associa-
tion may rely on an opinion of nationally -recognized bond counsel
selected by the Association and acceptable to the City.
The Association shall operate Las Carabelas as a museum and
endeavor to meet all requirements of the Spain '92 Foundation for
maintaining the vessels. The Association shall maintain hours of
operation open to the public and admission fees similar to
comparable attractions.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS: The Association agrees to comply
with all laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and require-
ments of federal, state and local governments, and of all of their
departments, applicable to the Leased Land.
8. COMPLIANCE WITH PORT LEASE: A portion of the Leased Land
is owned by the Port of Corpus Christi Authority of Nueces County,
Texas (the "Port") and is covered by a lease agreement between the
City and the Port. The Association agrees to comply with the terms
and conditions of said lease agreement as the same apply to the
portion of the Leased Land owned by the Port and with any rules and
regulations issued by the Port covering such property.
-3-
Fmsl
9. WETLANDS: The Leased Land may contain officially
designated wetlands, and the Association agrees that said wetland
areas will not be altered, damaged or constructed upon unless the
proper permit has been obtained from the appropriate regulating
entities. The Association shall be responsible for obtaining all
such necessary permits and completing any required mitigation. Any
such mitigation project shall be considered a necessary and related
construction project for the improvements contemplated to be
constructed under this Lease Agreement.
10. MAINTENANCE: Upon completion of the improvements to be
completed under this Lease Agreement, the Association agrees to
accept the Leased Land AS IS and WITH ALL FAULTS. The Association
shall throughout the term of this Lease Agreement take good care of
the Leased Land, including the improvements located thereon, keep
them free from waste or nuisance of any kind, and shall be
responsible for and shall perform, or cause to be performed,
maintenance, including custodial maintenance, and repair of the
Leased Land and the facilities located thereon.
11. POSSESSION: Possession of the Leased Land shall be
granted to the Association as of the Lease Commencement Date.
12. LIABILITY INSURANCE: The Association shall carry and pay
the premiums for liability insurance of the types and in the limits
stated below. The City shall be endorsed as an additional named
insured by the Association on said policies, with the exception of
the insurance required for workers' compensation.
-4-
Proal
(a) Public liability insurance, including coverage for
poisoning or illnesses from food or drink, in the amount
of $500,000 for bodily injury or death to any one person,
$1,000,000 for bodily injury or death for one occurrence,
and $100,000 for any claim of property damage per occur-
rence. Such policy shall additionally include endorse-
ments for contractual liability covering the Associa-
tion's obligations herein. In the event alcoholic
beverages are to be served on any premises covered by
this Lease, the Association shall additionally obtain or
cause to be obtained alcoholic beverage liability
insurance covering the event or time period during which
alcoholic beverages are to be served.
(b) Workers' compensation insurance covering any employees on
the Leased Premises as governed by the laws of the State
of Texas and employer's liability insurance with minimum
limits of liability of $100,000. The workers' compensa-
tion insurance shall be endorsed to waive any rights of
subrogation the insurance company may acquire by reason
of the payment of any claim against the City and any of
its respective Council members, officers, employees,
agents and attorneys. As an alternative to workers'
compensation insurance, the Association may establish one
or more employee benefit plans providing for the payment
of medical expenses and lost wages in the event of an on-
the-job injury suffered by an employee.
Such insurance policies shall not be cancelled, materially changed,
or not renewed, without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
the City. A certificate of such insurance coverage, reflecting the
foregoing cancellation provision shall be furnished to the City,
and copies of the insurance policies shall be promptly furnished to
the City upon its written request. Failure of the Association to
maintain said insurance for the term of this Lease Agreement shall
be grounds for termination hereof by the City.
13. HULL AND HAZARD INSURANCE: The Association agrees to
maintain hull insurance on Las Carabelas in the amount of THREE
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND Dollars ($3,500,000) aggregate on the
three vessels to be allocated as follows: ($1,500,000 for the
-5-
Fmd
Santa Maria, $1,000,000 for the Pinta, $1,000,000 for the Nina).
The valuations set forth herein shall be subject to adjustment as
may be necessary to cover the replacement costs of the vessels as
may be determined by market conditions in effect. The Association
shall additionally obtain hazard insurance for any museum -related
improvements and all associated personal property (excluding
historic items) located on the Leased Land against loss or damage
by fire, windstorm, or other extended coverage risk for the amount
of their replacement cost or to the maximum amount available from
the Texas Catastrophe Insurance Pool (if such Pool coverage is the
only coverage available to the Association), whichever is less.
Such hazard insurance policy shall name the City as an additional
insured and loss payee. No such insurance policy shall be
canceled, materially altered, or not renewed without thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to the City. A certificate of such
insurance coverage, reflecting the foregoing cancellation provision
shall be furnished to the City, and copies of the insurance
policies shall be promptly furnished to the City upon its written
request. Failure to maintain said insurance for the term of this
Lease Agreement shall be grounds for termination.
14. UTILITIES: The Association shall pay when due all
charges and costs for water, sewer, electricity, gas service, and
any other utilities consumed on the Leased Land.
15. TAXES OR OTHER IMPOSITIONS: The Association shall timely

16. INSPECTION: The City, and its employees and designated
agents, shall have the right to enter upon the Leased Land at all
times for the purposes of inspection, for emergency repairs to
utility systems, and to otherwise protect its interests as Landlord
hereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the City
in the exercise of any of its police powers.
17. SIGNS: The Association shall not place any advertising
signs on the Leased Land without compliance with all City codes and
regulations. All such signs shall be kept in a continual state of
good repair, and failure to do so may result in removal of said
signs from the Leased Land.
18. LIENS: The Association shall not permit any mechanics'
and materialmen's or other liens to be fixed or placed against the
Leased Land and agrees to immediately discharge (either by payment
or by filing the necessary bond, or otherwise) any such liens which
are allegedly fixed or placed against the Leased Land. The
Association reserves the right to contest with due diligence the
reasonableness of any such charges or impositions against the
Leased Land, and the City agrees not to interfere with such
contested proceedings or otherwise to declare a default under this
Lease due to such proceedings.
19. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS: With respect to any substances
defined as or included in the definition of "hazardous substances,"
"hazardous wastes," "hazardous materials" or "toxic substances"

all rules, orders and permits pursuant thereto collectively
referred to hereinafter as "Hazardous Materials Laws"), the

install, transport, treat or dispose of any Hazardous
Materials at, to or from the Leased Land in violation of

allow the release, discharge, emission, leak, spill or

ties on the Leased Land except for those releases allowed

officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from
and against any and all claims, demands, causes of
action, loss, damage, liabilities, costs, and expenses
(including attorneys' fees and court costs) of any and
every kind or character, known or unknown, fixed or
contingent, asserted against or incurred by the City at
any time or from time to time, by reason of or arising
out of any violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws
occurring since the commencement of the Association's
-8-
occupancy of the Leased Land. The Association's obliga-
tions hereunder shall arise upon the discovery of the
presence of any Hazardous Materials, whether or not any
federal agency or any state or local environmental agency
has taken or threatened any action in connection with the
presence of any Hazardous Materials. The foregoing
indemnity shall survive the expiration of this Lease. In

interfere in the Association's proceedings with such
agency.
