Am SERVICE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
Whereas, Monroe County is the owner and operator of the Florida Keys Marathon
Airport (the" Airport" or "MTH" or the "County") and desires to upgrade air service to the
Airport; and
Whereas, Gulfstream International Airlines (the "Airline" or "Gulf stream") is willing
to provide scheduled air service to the Airport, in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Agreement;
Now, therefore, the parties agree as follows:
1. The Airline's Obligations:
A. Service Commitment. From on or about November 1, 2006 for one calendar
year (service period) the Airline shall provide scheduled air service between
MTH and the Tampa International Airport (TP A) and Fort Lauderdale
International Airport (FLL), including at least two nonstop roundtrips per day
on both routes (New Service). The Airline may adjust the foregoing service
levels in its sole discretion on weekends and holidays, as necessary to meet
traffic demand.
B. Flight Schedule. The Airline will determine the schedule for the New Service
in its sole discretion, provided that the Airline will use commercially
reasonable efforts to schedule the New Service in a manner that will maximize
the Airline's passenger revenues. The Airline anticipates that the New
Service will be scheduled as set forth in Appendix A hereto (Initial Schedule).
The Airline will publish the Initial Schedule in the same manner as the Airline
publishes its other flight schedules. In this regard, the Initial Schedule will be
available for sale by August of2006.
C. Air Service Brand. The New Service will be offered to the public under the
brand of the code-sharing host carrier of the Airline. The Airline will also
offer service via code sharing arrangements with other airlines as is
commercially feasible.
D. Airfare Price Points & Revenue Management. The Airport will aggressively
market the New Service in conjunction with existing domestic and
international marketing of the Florida Keys. An essential element of this effort
must be the same or similar airfare pricing by the Airline at both Key West
and Florida Keys Marathon airports. Accordingly, the Airline agrees to make
every effort to offer airfares at the Airport that are the same or similar to those
the Airline offers at Key West. The Airline also agrees to assist the Airport in
its efforts to work with the Airline's code-sharing partner carriers to ensure
they also offer the same or similar airfares at both airports. The Airline will
determine the seat allocations and overbooking levels for the New Service at
its sole discretion. The Airline will use commercially reasonable efforts to
price and yield manage the MTH market in a manner that will maximize the
Airline's passenger revenues but also in a manner which is consistent with the
Airline's network revenue management practices.
E. Conditions of Carriage. The Airline will operate the New Service under the
same conditions of carriage that it operates under at Key West.
F. Definition of New Service Revenue. Revenue generated from the New
Service will come from the following sources;
~ Local Passenger Traffic (MTH-FLL or MTH-TPA) = all revenue
~ Airline Online Connecting Revenue (example MTH - JAX via TPA) =
prorate of total revenue via standard Gulfstream online multi leg revenue
allocation method
~ Code-share partner connecting revenue (example online to Continental) =
Gulfstream's share of ticket revenue per existing agreement with code-
share partner
~ Interline revenue (example connecting to US Airways on a joint fare) =
Gulfstream's share of ticket revenue per existing agreement with interline
partner
~ All MTH New Service cargo and mail revenue
G. Reporting of New Service Revenue. The Airline will provide the Airport with
a monthly report of the number of passengers carried on the flights operated
as part of the New Service and the average net fare paid by such passengers
(Actual Passenger Traffic & Revenue Report). This report will be sent to the
Airport in accordance with the following schedule:

Monthly Actual Passenger Traffic &
Revenue
Due Date
60 days after each month

Actual Revenue information it receives pursuant to this Section 1. G. to any
third party without the Airline's prior written consent.

primarily responsible for overseeing the security measures utilized by the airport
owner pursuant to the relevant provisions of Chapter 49, United States Code, and
regulations adopted under the authority of the Code, including but not limited to
49 CFR 1540, et seq. Violations of the statutes or regulations may result in severe
civil monetary penalties being assessed against the airport operator. It is the intent
of the airport operator that the burdens and consequences of any security
violations imposed upon the airport operator as a result of actions by an airport
tenant or the airport tenant's employees, agents, invitees, or licensees shall be
borne by the airport tenant.
b. Airport Tenant Defined. An airport tenant means any person, entity, organization,
partnership, corporation, or other legal association that has an agreement with the
airport operator to conduct business on airport property. The term also includes an
airport tenant as defined in 49 CFR 1540.5. Each signatory to this agreement,
other than the airport operator, is an airport tenant.

leased by, or being lawfully used by, the airport operator for civil aviation and
airport-related purposes. For purposes of this agreement, airport property is the
property generally referred to as the Key West International Airport, the Florida
Keys Marathon Airport, or both as may be set forth in this agreement.
e. Inspection Authority. The airport tenant agrees to allow Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) authorized personnel, at any time or any place, to make
inspections or tests, including copying records, to determine compliance of the
airport operator or airport tenant with the applicable security requirements of
Chapter 49, United States Code, and 49 CFR 1540, et seq.
f Airport Security Program. The airport tenant agrees to become familiar, to the
extent permitted by the airport operator, with the Airport Security Program
promulgated by the airport operator and approved by TSA, and also agrees to
conform its' operations and business activities to the requirements of the Airport
Security Program.
g. Tenant Security Program. If permitted under TSA regulations, the airport tenant
may voluntarily undertake to maintain an Airport Tenant Security Program as
referred to in 49 CFR 1542.113. If the airport tenant voluntarily promulgates an
10
Airport Tenant Security Program that is approved by TSA, such program, as may
be amended and approved from time to time, shall be automatically incorporated
into this agreement.
h. Breach of Agreement. Should TSA determine that the airport tenant or one or
more of the airport tenant's employees, agents, invitees, or licensees has
committed an act or omitted to act as required, and such act or omission is a
violation which results in TSA imposing a civil penalty against the airport
operator in accordance with TSA's Enforcement Sanction Guidance Policy, such
determination and imposition of a civil penalty by TSA shall be considered a
significant breach of this agreement.
(I) Minimum Violation. If the violation is the first or second violation attributed to
the airport tenant and is a civil penalty "minimum violation" as provided for in
TSA's Enforcement Sanction Guidance Policy, the airport tenant may cure the
breach by paying to the airport operator the costs incurred by the airport operator
in the way of any fines or penalties imposed by the TSA. If the violation is a third
violation, or there are multiple violations in excess of two violations, that is or are
a civil penalty "minimum violation," the airport tenant shall pay to the airport
operator any fines or penalties imposed by TSA and, further, the airport operator
shall have the right to unilaterally cancel this agreement, such cancellation to be
effective thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the airport tenant of written
notice of cancellation of this agreement by the airport operator.
(2) Moderate Violation. If the violation is the first or second violation attributed to
the airport tenant and is a civil penalty "moderate violation" as provided for in
TSA's Enforcement Sanction Guidance Policy, the airport tenant may cure the
breach by paying to the airport operator the costs incurred by the airport operator
in the way of any fines or penalties imposed by the TSA The airport tenant may
cause all of airport tenant's employees involved in the airport tenant's business
operations on the airport property to undergo such security training as may be
required by the airport operator. The total cost of the training shall be paid for by
the airport tenant. If the violation is a third violation, or there are multiple
violations in excess of two violations, that is or are a civil penalty "moderate
violation," the airport tenant shall pay to the airport operator the costs incurred by
the airport operator in the way of any fines or penalties imposed by the TSA In
the case of a third moderate violation, the airport operator shall have the right to
unilaterally cancel this Agreement, such cancellation to be effective thirty (30)
calendar days after receipt by the airport tenant of written notice of cancellation of
this agreement by the airport operator.
(3) Maximum Violation. If the violation is the first violation attributed to the airport
tenant and is a civil penalty "maximum violation" as provided for in TSA's
Enforcement Sanction Guidance Policy, the airport tenant may cure the breach by
paying to the airport operator the costs incurred by the airport operator in the way
of any fines and penalties imposed by the TSA The airport tenant may cause all
11
of airport tenant's employees involved in the airport tenant's business operations
on the airport property to undergo such security training as may be required by the
airport operator. The total cost of the training shall be paid for by the airport
tenant. If the violation is a second violation, or there are multiple violations, that
is or are a civil penalty "maximum violation," the airport tenant shall pay to the
airport operator the costs incurred by the airport operator in the way of any fines
or penalties imposed by the TSA. In the case of a third maximum violation the
airport operator shall have the right to unilaterally cancel this agreement, such
cancellation to be effective thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the airport
tenant of written notice of cancellation of this agreement by the airport operator.
(4) Mitigation of Breach. TSA has a policy of forgoing civil penalty actions when the
airport operator detects violations, promptly discloses the violations to TSA, and
takes prompt corrective action to ensure that the same or similar violations do not
recur. This policy is known as the TSA Voluntary Disclosure Program Policy, and
is designed to encourage compliance with TSA regulations, foster secure
practices, and encourage the development of internal evaluation programs. The
airport tenant agrees that upon detecting a violation the airport tenant will
immediately report it to the airport operator. Should the TSA ultimately determine
that the violation was committed by the airport tenant, or an employee, agent,
invitee, or licensee of the airport tenant, but the violation should result in the
issuance of a letter of correction in lieu of a civil penalty, then the airport tenant
shall reimburse the airport operator the total costs incurred by the airport operator
in investigating, defending, mitigating, or taking of remedial measures as may be
agreed to by TSA, to include but not be limited to reasonable attorney's fees and
costs incurred in the investigation, defense, mitigation, or taking of remedial
action measures. A violation resulting in the issuance of a letter of correction shall
not be considered to be a breach of this agreement by the airport tenant.
(5) Survival of Subsection. This subsection shall survive the cancellation or
termination of this agreement, and shall be in full force and effect.
27. Hold Harmless: Indemnification: Defense: Release: Survival. Notwithstanding
any minimum insurance requirements prescribed elsewhere in this agreement,

regulation, attorneys' fees and costs, court costs, fines and penalties) that may be
asserted against, initiated with respect to, or sustained by, any indemnified party
by reason of, or in connection with, (A) any activity of Gulfstream or any of its
12
employees, agents, contractors or other invitees on the Airport during the term of
this lease, (B) the negligence or willful misconduct of Gulfstream or any of its
employees, agents, contractors or other invitees, or (C) Gulfstream's default in
respect of any of the obligations that it undertakes under the terms of this lease,
except to the extent the claims, actions, causes of action, litigation, proceedings,
