applicable laws. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction, or the admission of
LICENSEE in any action or proceeding against LICENSEE, whether CITY be a party thereto or
not, that LICENSEE has violated any such ordinance or statute in the use of Property will be
conclusive of that fact as between CITY and LICENSEE.

constitute a breach of this License by LICENSEE, and in such event said License will

LICENSEE. Except for areas restricted because of safety concerns, CITY and the general public
will have unrestricted access upon Property for all lawful acts.

bankruptcy action, will constitute a breach of this License by LICENSEE, and in such event said
License will automatically cease and terminate.
