The lease of the items described in a particular Supplement shall be considered a separate lease pursuant to the terms of the Master Lease and the Supplement the same as if a single lease agreement containing such terms had been executed covering such items. The execution by Lessee of each Supplement shall evidence a determination by the Lessee that the Equipment covered thereby is essential to its proper, efficient and economic operation and desires to enter into that Supplement for the acquisition of that Equipment under the terms hereof, that the Equipment is necessary for the governmental functions of Lessee, and that Lessor is neither the manufacturer nor a dealer or merchant of said Equipment, but has agreed to provide the funding for and on behalf of Lessee for the acquisition of said Equipment under the terms hereof at the specific request of Lessee. 2. DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE. Lessee will evidence its acceptance of the Equipment by executing and delivering to Lessor a Delivery and Acceptance Certificate (herein so called) in the form to be provided by Lessor. 3. TERM. The term of this Lease with respect to each item of Equipment shall begin on the date it is accepted by Lessee and shall continue from the rent commencement date shown in the related Supplement unless earlier terminated as provided herein. The rent commencement date is the Acceptance Date as recorded on the Acceptance Certificate. 4. RENT. Lessee shall pay as basic rent for the full term of this Lease the amount shown in the related Supplement as Total Rent, and a portion of each rent payment is paid as, and represents the payment of interest, and Exhibit "A" attached to the related Supplement sets forth the interest component of each rent payment during the term. The Total Rent shall be payable in installments each in the amount of the basic rental payment set forth in the related Supplement plus any applicable sales and use tax thereon. Lessee shall pay rent in installments as shown in the Related Supplement. Except as specifically provided in Section 5 hereof, the rental payments will be absolute and unconditional in all events and will not be subject to any set -off, defense, counter claim or recoupment for any reason whatsoever. Lessee reasonably believes that funds can be obtained sufficient to make all rent payments during the term of the Lease and hereby covenants that it will do all things lawfully within its power to obtain, maintain and properly request and pursue funds from which the rent payments may be made. The chief executive officer of the unit shall request the required appropriation from the governing board and exhaust all available administrative reviews and appeals in the event such portion of the budget is not approved. 5. NON - APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. If Lessee periodically requests from its legislative body or funding authority funds to be paid to Lessor under this Lease and, notwithstanding the making in good faith of such request in accordance with appropriate procedures and with the exercise of reasonable care and diligence, such legislative body or funding authority does not approve funds to be paid to Lessor for the Equipment, Lessee may, upon prior written notice to Lessor effective 60 days after the giving of such notice or upon the exhaustion of the funding authorized for the then current appropriation period, whichever is later, return the Equipment to Lessor at Lessee's expense and thereupon be released of its obligation to make all rental payments to Lessor due thereafter, provided: (i) the Equipment is returned to Lessor freight prepaid and insured to any location in the continental United States designated by Lessor in the same condition as when first delivered to Lessee, reasonable wear and tear resulting solely from authorized use thereof excepted, (ii) the foregoing notice states the failure of the legislative body or funding authority to appropriate the necessary funds as reason for cancellation, and (iii) the notice is accompanied by payment of all amounts then due to Lessor under this Lease. In the event Lessee returns the Equipment pursuant to the terms of this Section 5, Lessor shall retain all sums paid hereunder by Lessee, including any security deposit paid hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, if the provisions of this Section 5 are utilized by Lessee, Lessee agrees not to purchase, lease or rent equipment performing functions similar to those performed through the use of the Equipment, or to obtain from any source the services or information which the Equipment was to perform or provide, for the balance of the appropriation period following Lessee's exercise of its termination right hereunder. This Section 5 will not be construed so as to permit Lessee to terminate this Lease in order to acquire any other equipment or to allocate funds directly or indirectly to perform essentially the same application for which the equipment is intended. 6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF LESSEE. Lessee represents and warrants and, so long as this Lease is in effect or any part of Lessee's obligations to Lessor remain unfulfilled, shall continue to warrant at all times, that: (a) Lessee is a State, a Territory or a possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, or a political subdivision of any of the foregoing within the meaning of Section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Treasury Regulations and Rulings related thereto.
