bylaws, or any othe'r bylaw relating to financial matters,
without prior appraval by the City.
Section 6.09 . Assurance of Tax Exemption. (1)
The Te•nant recognizes that the exemption from Federal income
taxation of the interest component of the Lease-Purchase
Payments is dependent upon its status as an organization
described in Section 501(c) ( 3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
In order to assure that such interest component
shall at all times be free from Federal income taxation, the
Tenant covenants with the City and the Corporation:
(A) that it will not take, nor suffer others to
take, any action which will alter , change or impair its
status as an organization described in Section
501 (c) ( 3 ) of the Internal Revenue Code, which is not
subject to taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code,
but rather will take , or cause others to take, all
actions necessary to maintain that status;
-20-
/
(B) that it will not carry on any trade or
business at the Science Centez which would be an
unrelated trade or business determined by applying
Section 513(a) of the Code to the Tenant and would
result in the loss of the exemption from Federal income
taxation of the interest component of the Lease-
Purchase Payments; and
(C) that it will fulfill any and all other
conditions in the Code to insure that it maintains its
status as an organization described in Section
501 (c) ( 3) of the Code and that the interest component
of the Lease-Purchase Payments will not be subject to
Federal income taxes.
( 2 ) If the Tenant receives a notice from the
City, the Corporation or any other source that a "Deter-
mination of Taxability" as hereinafter defined , has been
made, without regard to the reason therefor , the Tenant
shall immediately pay as additional basic rent the following
sums:
(A) a sum sufficient to pay or prepay all
remaining Lease-Purchase Payments pursuant to the
Lease-Purchase Agreement, plus a nremium equal to 4� of
the unpaid Lease-Purchase Price of the Science Center
for each six month period or part thereof elapsed
between the "Event of Taxability" , as hereinafter
defined , and the date of payment or prepayment thereof
under the Lease-Purchase Agreement , less such amount as
may then be on hand in the Science Center Lease-
Purchase Agreement Fund; plus
(B) an amount equal to 4% of the amount of the
Lease-Purchase Price theretofore paid , but which had
not been paid as of the Event of Taxability, for each
six month period or part thereof elapsed between the
Event of Taxability and the date that such amount of
the Lease-Purchase Price was oaid . Such amount shall
be regarded as basic rent and shall be paid , held,
invested and disbursed as provided in Section 3 .02
hereof and in the Lease-Purchase Agreement.
A "Determination of Taxability" shall mean the issuance of a
statutory notice of deficiency by the Internal Revenue
Service , or a ruling of the National Office or any District
Office of the Internal Revenue Service , or a final decision
of a court of competent jurisdiction which holds in effect
that the interest component of the Lease-Purchase Payments
is includable in the gross income of the recipient if the
period , if any, for contest or appeal of such action, ruling
-21-
or decision by the Tenant has expired without any such
contest or appeal having been properly instituted by the
Tenant. An "Event of Taxability" shall mean that point in
time, as specified in the determination, ruling , or
decision, that the interest component of the Lease-Purchase
Payments became includable in the gross income of a
recipient (other than a person who is a substantial user of
the Science Center or a related person as such are defined
in the Internal Revenue Code) .
( 3 ) The Tenant will not cause the "proceeds" of
the Lease Purchase Agreement to be used in a manner which,
if such use had been reasonably expected on the date of
actual execution of this Lease, would have caused such
obligation to be an arbitrage bond within the meaning of
Section 103 (c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder , in effect on that date.
Section 6. 10 . Permitted Indebtedness . The Tenant
covenants and agrees that it will not incur any indebtedness

a sum equal to 75s of the unpaid amount of legally
enforceable pledges held by the Tenant which, if
collected, could be used to pay such indebtedness or
the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease,
unsecured or secured by a security interest in or lien
upon pledges and donations or other properties or real
