default in the payment of fees, YAT may cure or correct the same and the cost of
such action by YAT shall immediately become due and payable from USER,
together with late fees on said sum at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum,
and the non-payment of said sum by USER shall be adequate grounds for YAT to
invoke the other remedies as provided in this Agreement.
C. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, USER shall immediately
surrender the premises to the YAT in as good a condition and repair as exited prior
to the Use, ordinary wear and usage excepted; and USER shall remove all of

personnel policies and practices, USER, for itself, its personal representative,
successors in interest and assigns, as a part of the consideration hereof, does
hereby covenant and agree as follows:
A. No person, on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, age, marital status,

denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination in USER's
personnel policies and practices or in the use or operation of USER's services or
facilities.
B. USER agrees that in the construction of any improvements on, over or under
Airport land and the furnishing of services thereon, no person, on the grounds of

11
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and as said Regulations may be amended.
D. It is the policy of the Department of Transportation that minority business
enterprise as defined in 49 CFR Part 23, i.e., firms owned and controlled by
minorities; firms owned and controlled by women and firms owned and controlled by
financially disadvantaged persons; shall have the maximum opportunity to
participate in the performance of leases as defined in 49 CFR Section 23.5.
Consequently, this Agreement is subject to 49 CFR Part 23 as applicable.
24. NON-WAIVER:
The failure by one party to require performance of any provision of this
Agreement shall not affect that party's right to require performance at any time
thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement
constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the
provision itself.
25. INTEGRATION:
This document embodies the entire Agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter herein contained. No amendments or modifications hereof shall
be enforceable unless in writing, signed by the party to be charged.
26. JURISDICTION AND VENUE
This Agreement shall be administered and interpreted under the laws of the State of
Washington and under applicable federal law provisions. Jurisdiction of litigation
arising from this Agreement shall be in Washington State. If any part of this
Agreement is found to conflict with applicable state and federal laws, such part shall
be inoperative, null, and void insofar as it conflicts with said laws, but the remainder
of this Agreement shall be in full force and effect. Venue for all disputes arising
under this Agreement shall be in the federal court in Yakima County, State of
Washington.
27. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
In the event that any dispute shall arise as to the interpretation of this agreement, or
in the event of a notice of default as to whether such default does constitute a
breach of the contract, and if the parties hereto cannot mutually settle such
differences, then the parties shall first pursue mediation as a means to resolve the
dispute. If the afore mentioned methods are either not successful then any dispute
relating to this Agreement shall be decided in the federal court in Yakima County, in
accordance with the laws of Washington and of the United States, as shall be
applicable. If both parties consent in writing, other available means of dispute
resolution may be implemented.
Time is of the essence of this entire Agreement.
