or additions to the Leased Premises or the Noyes Cultural Arts Center, or do any nailing, boring or screwing into the

Lessor, but at the cost of Lessee. Please see attached Appendix H for review of schedule of set and lighting/sound

e) indemnification in form and amount satisfactory to Lessor and certificates of insurance from all contractors

from any and all liabilities of every kind and, description which may arise out of or be connected in any way with said
alterations or additions. Any mechanic's lien filed against the Leased Premises, or the Noyes Cultural Arts Center of

• removal, become the Lessor's property and shall remain upon the Leased Premises at the termination of this Lease by
lapse of time or otherwise without compensation or allowance or credit to the Lessee. If, upon the Lessor's request,
the Lessee does not remove said additions, decorations, fixtures, hardware, non -grade fixtures and improvements, the
Lessor may remove the same and the Lessee shall pay the cost of such removal to the Lessor upon demand.

stairways, egress doors and any panic hardware installed thereon, aisles, corridors, passageways and similar •

any practice event or events related to Lessees activities in the public areas of the NCAC.
6. NON-INTERFERENCE/TENANTS. Lessee covenants and agrees that Lessee will exercise all due caution and
control to prevent any interference on the part of Lessee, its agents, employees, students, or other individuals under
the care, control or influence of Lessee, with the practice of art by other tenants in the building. Lessee recognizes
that, due to the use of the building wherein the leased premises are located as a cultural art center, an extraordinary

it's refuse at any time during this Lease. Lessee will observe the following guidelines:
Lessee will provide the Cultural Arts Director with a schedule of dates no less than seven calendar days before Lessee
strikes it set and disposes it's refuse. At no time will Lessee discard refuse in the City dumpsters totaling over 500 lbs.
per refuse pick up by the City. The City will accept scrap metal. All scrap metal is to be placed neatly inside the
dumpster area. The weight of the scrap metal will not be added to the refuse weight placed in the dumpsters. All
refuse must be bagged to prevent blowing or scattering. All wood discarded must be broken up into sizes not to •
exceed 2'x2'x2'. Lessee will not place drywall or cement in the City dumpsters.
At no time will Lessee be permitted to discard any bulk wood (tree branches, tree stumps, larger than 3 inches in
diameter) or hazardous waste to include: gas, oil, asbestos, medical waste, car parts, tires, aerosol paints, antifreeze,
cleaning products, drain cleaners, fluorescent lamp bulbs, hobby chemicals, oil -based paints, household batteries,
insecticides, lawn chemicals, old gasoline, paint thinners, pool chemicals, pesticides, solvents, used motor oil and
herbicides, latex paints, agricultural wastes, farm machinery oil, explosives, fire extinguishers, fireworks, lead acid

could apply any time and/or if excessive usage as determined by Lessor occurs any time during the term of this
contract.
• 15. ASSOCIATED EXPENSES. If for any reason attributable to lessee, or those holding under Lessee, a Noyes staff
member, Facilities Management staff, Contractor/Sub-Contractor, or agent of the City of Evanston has to stay or
return to the NCAC on holidays or after the employee's normal work shift(s), Lessee will incur the cost of a $53.00

NCAC/CITY OF EVANSTON by service agencies such as the NCAC Security Alarm Contractors, the Evanston

16. Lessee pays all costs associated with, but not limited to: parking permits, custodial and/or staff overtime charges, and
other charges as outlined in this lease contract or necessitated by the nature of Lessee's activities or actions. Prior
written approval is needed from the Director of Parks/Forestry & Recreation or designee in order to perform any
licensed trade work. All such work must be performed pursuant to applicable permits and in accordance with all
applicable legislation and regulations. Lessee's failure to obtain prior written approval before performing any licensed
