Narrative:

We were assigned to repos the airplane from the GA side of the airport; spot X to the terminal spot Y to begin our assigned flts. We were cleared to hold short of runway 35 at K5 by ground control (121.9) from spot X en route to K5. We were switched to tower frequency for runway 35 (118.3). Before reaching K5; tower cleared us to cross runways 35 and 32 at K5. The first officer read back the clearance in its entirety; then read the clearance to me. I responded to him with cleared to cross. As we started across; we noticed a hawker cpr jet on rollout. He was approximately 1000 ft down the runway at taxi speed. As we were crossing; the hawker pilot reported to tower that there was an airplane crossing in front of him. Tower responded to the hawker 'sorry about that; my fault.' upon reaching the terminal; I called the pilot of the hawker and apologized for the crossing. He responded that it was no problem; he was planning to take K5 as an exit to the runway anyway; ATC just hadn't said anything to him. No further action was taken by either myself or the first officer.
