The Authority will acquire,, construct and equip new buildings on the site described on Exhibit "A" and will improve existing facilities on said site all in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor prepared by the architects, Denyes & Freeman'Associates, Inc., of Pontiac, MiChigan, which plans and specifications have been approved by the County and identified by the initials of the County Clerk and are 'incorporated herein by reference although not attached hereto. -2- 2. In consideration of the rentals and other terms and conditions herein specified, the Authority does hereby let and lease to the County the said land as improved by the acquisition, construc- tion and equipping of new buildings thereon and by the improvement of existing facilities, the said land, buildings and facilities . sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "leased premises", TO HAVE AND TO HOLD for a term commencing January 1, 1975, and ending December 31, 2011, or such lesser period as may be authorized by the provisions of this Lease-Back Agreement, and the County agrees to pay rental therefor as follows: On March 1, 1974 the County shall pay to the Authority $427,000 which amount shall be deemed to be the rental for the period commencing on the date possession vests in the County and ending on December 31, 1975. On March 1, 1975, and on each March 1, there- after, the County shall pay totne Authority $427,000 as rental for the calendar year commen- cing the following January 1. It is anticipated that certain parts of the project will be completed prior to January 1, 1975, and that other parts of the project will be completed after that date. As parts of the project are completed possession will be delivered to the County and the term of this lease shall be adjusted as to such parts of the project. The rental payment due March 1, 1974, shall in such event be deemed to be the rental payable for the period from the beginning of the term to and including December 31, 1975.! The fixed annual rentals herein provided are hereby determined, after taking into account the other obligations of the County as hereinafter provided, not to exceed fair and reasonable compensation for the use of the land, buildings and facilities hereby -3- leased to the County. Any advance rental payments made by the County to the Authority will be credited to the County against its annual rental payments due hereunder in inverse chronological order commencing with the rental payment due in the year 2010. 3. The cash rental payments herein required to be made by the County are estimated to be sufficient to provide net revenues which will enable the Authority to make, as they severally mature, the principal and interest payments on the revenue bonds to be issued to finance the project and to meet all of its other obligations as set forth in the ordinance authorizing the issuance of said bonds. In the event that such rentals shall any time prove insufficient for said purposes, then the Authority is hereby authorized and required to increase the rentals to thel extent necessary for said purposes, and the County agrees to pay such increased rentals: Provided, however, that the total rental shall at all times be fair and reasonable. 4. The County shall, at its wn expense, administer, operate and maintain the said land, buildings and facilities and keep the same in good condition and repair.

In case of loss, the County shall apply the proceeds of said insurance to the repair, restoration and replacement of the buildings, equipment and furnishings to their former condition, or in such other manner as may be mutually agreeable to the County and the Authority for the purpose of making said buildings, equipment and furnishings again usable. There shall be no abatement of the fixed rentals required to be made by the - County during the process of such reconstruction, repair or replacement. 6. The County shall provide liability insurance in the type and amount specified in the Ground Lease protecting the Authority- and the County against loss on account of damage or injury to persons or property, imposed by reason of the existence, use or ownership of the land, buildings and facilities, or resulting from any act of omission or commission on the part of the County or the Authority, or the agents, officers and employees of either or both, in the course of operation, maintenance and repair or the furnishing of any services to the County or to the public.

The County shall include i lits budget for the calendar year 1974, and for each year thereafter, an amount sufficient to pay its total obligations under this agreement and shall each year levy a tax in an amount which, together with other funds available for such purpose, shall be sufficient to meet such lobligations.
