The number of fixed wing aircraft in the contract only refers to Bertlesmann civil aircraft use I believe, there is nothing to stop military flights using the runway (C130's and a C17 landed in the last week for example).
Bertlsmann are being effectivly thrown out at the end of October, a strange decision as they pay for a large part of the upkeep of the airfield? Is this another military cost saving exercise?
