as follows:"The demised premises shall be used only for the purposes of public
activities. The Lessee shall at its own cost and expense obtain any and all
licenses and permits necessary for such use. The Lessee shall comply with all
governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to its use of the
demised premises, and shall properly comply with all governmental orders and

or connected with the demised premises, all at the Lessee's sole expense."

for scheduling all events taking place in and upon the demised property. The Lessee
agrees that the said events shall, insofar as possible, be scheduled in such a
manner as to provide equal access to the facilities of the demised property, to
all bona fide groups making timely application therefor, to the Lessee. Lessee
