payments, on the first days of January and July each year, the annual rental value of said land, exclusive of his improvements thereon, to be determined
by the said Corporation through its Executive Council or Board of Directors, under its avowed principle of so fixing the rentals of its lands as to
equalize the varying advantage of location and natural qualities of different tracts and convert into the trensury of the Corporation for the common
benefit of its Lessees, all values attaching to such lands, exclusive of improvements thereon. And the said Lessee, for himself and his heirs, hereby
expressly agrees that the said annual rent shall be determined by the said Corporation upon the principle just stated, and shall be expended by said
Corporation, subject to the conditions hereinafter stated.
(2) Lessee agrees not to authorize or pennit any nuisance on the leasehold land, to comply with any applicable laws and ordinances ofthe City
of Fairhope, County of Baldwin, and Slate of Alabama, and further agrees flint Lessee will, by no act or omission to act, render lessor liable for any
violation of such city laws or ordinances or county or state laws.
(3) In consideration of the agreement of said Lessee to pay the rentals herein provided for, the Fairhope Single Tax Corporation will pay all
taxes, upon the ]mid leased and the improvements and personal property (moneys and credits excepted) held by Lessee upon the land herein leased; or
will accept from the Lessee on rent, receipts of the County Tax Collector or Clerk of City of Fairhope, for taxes paid to Slate, County, School Districts,
or City, upon file improvements and personal property (moneys and credits excepted) held by Lessee upon the land herein leased; or, if all rent due be

part of the rents paid by Lessee upon the land herewith leased, shall be approprinled as dividends to its members or any other persons, but that all shall
be administered as a trust fund for the equal benefit of those leasing its lands.
(5) And the said Corporation still further agrees, that in the distribution of the benefits which its purpose is to secure for residents upon its

interest thereon are not paid within six months after due dale and said rent default has not been corrected by Lessee or mortgagee within sixty (60) days
from date of written notice, then Lessor reserves the right (and Lessee agrees) at Lessor's option to re-enter the said leased land and to sell said
mortgaged improvements at public sale at the front door of the Baldwin County Courthouse located in Fnirhope, Alabama, for cash to the highest
bidder, after first giving thirty (30) days written notice of the time, place and temis of sale, together with a description of the property to be sold by

division of its assets among its members, the said Lessee, if a member, shall be entitled to have the land herein described and leased - or so much of it
as he may designate - included in his portion, at its actual value at the time, exclusive of improvements thereon, and if it exceed in value such portion,
to purchase the excess at such valuation. If not a member, the Lessee may at such time acquire title to the land herein leased by paying to the
