Notation
Let $X$ be a topological space, $(U_i)_{i\in I}$ an open cover of $X$.
Let $(i_0,\cdots, i_p) \in I^{p+1}$, where $p \ge 0$ is an integer.
We denote $U_{i_0}\cap \cdots \cap U_{i_p}$ by $U_{i_0 \cdots i_p}$.
Proof of the Proposition
Let $\psi\colon \mathcal F \rightarrow \mathcal G$ and $\phi\colon \mathcal G \rightarrow \mathcal H$ be the morphisms making the sequence $0 \rightarrow \mathcal F \rightarrow \mathcal G \rightarrow \mathcal H \rightarrow 0$ exact.
Let $s\in \Gamma(X, \mathcal H)$.
Since the morphism $\phi\colon \mathcal G \rightarrow \mathcal H$ is surjective and $X$ is quasi-compact,
there exists a finite open cover $(U_i)_{i\in I}$ of $X$, where each $U_i = D(g_i)$ is a principal open subset, and a section $t_i \in \Gamma(U_i, \mathcal G)$ such that $\phi(t_i) = s|U_i$ for each $i \in I$.
Since $\phi(t_i|U_{ij} - t_j|U_{ij}) = 0$, there exists $u_{ij} \in \Gamma(U_{ij}, \mathcal F)$ such that $\psi(u_{ij}) = t_i|U_{ij} - t_j|U_{ij}$ for each $(i,j) \in I^2$.
By the following Lemma 1, there exists a section $u_i \in \Gamma(U_i, \mathcal F)$ for each $i \in I$ such that $u_{ij} = u_j|U_{ij} - u_i|U_{ij}$ for each $(i, j) \in I^2$.
Then $t_i|U_{ij} - t_j|U_{ij} = \psi(u_j|U_{ij} - u_i|U_{ij})$.
Hence $t_i|U_{ij} + \psi(u_i|U_{ij}) = t_j|U_{ij} + \psi(u_j|U_{ij})$.
Therefore there exists $t \in \Gamma(X, \mathcal G)$ such that $t|U_i = t_i|U_i + \psi(u_i|U_i)$.
Then $\phi(t) = s$.
This completes the proof.

Lemma 1
Let $X$ be an affine scheme, $\mathcal F$ a quasi-coherent $\mathcal O_X$-module.
Let $(U_i)_{i\in I}$ be a finite open cover of $X$, where each $U_i = D(g_i)$ is a principal open subset. Suppose a section $f_{ij} \in \Gamma(U_{ij}, \mathcal F)$ is given for each $(i, j) \in I^2$ such that $f_{ii} = 0, f_{ij} = -f_{ji}$.
Furthermore suppose $f_{jk}|U_{ijk} - f_{ik}|U_{ijk} + f_{ij}|U_{ijk} = 0$ for each $(i, j, k) \in I^3$.
Then there exists a section $f_i \in \Gamma(U_i, \mathcal F)$ for each $i \in I$ such that
$f_{ij} = f_j|U_{ij} - f_i|U_{ij}$ for each $(i, j) \in I^2$.
Proof:
Since $I$ is finite, there exists an integer $r \ge 1$ such that
$$f_{ij} = \frac{x_{ij}}{(g_i g_j)^r}$$, $x_{ij} \in \Gamma(X, \mathcal F)$ for all $(i, j) \in I^2$.
Then
$$\frac{g_i^r x_{jk}}{g_k^r (g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ijk} - \frac{g_j ^ rx_{ik}}{g_k^r (g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ijk} + \frac{g_k^r x_{ij}}{g_k^r(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ijk} = 0$$ for each $(i, j, k) \in I^3$.
Hence there exists $l \ge 1$ such that
$$\frac{g_k^l g_i^r x_{jk}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij} - \frac{g_k^l g_j ^ rx_{ik}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij} + \frac{g_k^{r+l} x_{ij}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij} = 0$$ for each $(i, j, k) \in I^3$.
Since the open subsets $D(g_k^{r+l})$ cover $X$, $1 = \sum_k h_k g_k^{r+l}$, $h_k \in \Gamma(X, \mathcal O_X)$.
Let $$f_i = \sum_k h_k g_k^l \frac{x_{ki}}{g_i^r} \in \Gamma(U_i, \mathcal F)$$ for each $i \in I$.
Then
$$f_i|U_{ij} = \sum_k h_k g_k^l g_j^r \frac{x_{ki}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij}$$.
$$f_j|U_{ij} = \sum_k h_k g_k^l g_i^r \frac{x_{kj}}{(g_j g_j)^r}|U_{ij}$$.
Hence
$$f_j|U_{ij} - f_i|U_{ij} = \sum_k h_k g_k^l (g_i^r \frac{x_{kj}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij} - g_j^r \frac{x_{ki}}{(g_i g_j)^r}|U_{ij}) = \sum_k h_k g_k^{r+l}\frac{x_{ij}}{(g_i g_j)^r} = f_{ij}$$.
