13.2

Award

 

Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award for any taking, including, without limitation, any award made for the value of the leasehold estate created by this Lease.  No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any award that may be made in any taking; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any separate award made to Tenant for its relocation expenses, the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant, the unamortized value of improvements made or paid for by Tenant or the interruption of or damage to Tenant’s business.

 

13.3	Abatement of Rent

 

In the event of a partial taking that does not result in a termination of this Lease as to the entire Premises, the Rent and Additional Charges shall abate in proportion to the portion of the Premises taken or rendered untenantable by such taking.

 

 

13.4	Temporary Taking

 

If all or any portion of the Premises is taken for a limited period of time before or during the Term, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that the Rent and Additional Charges payable pursuant to Article 4 shall abate during such limited period in proportion to the portion of the Premises taken by such taking.  Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking.

 

14.	Assignment and Subletting

 

Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, voluntarily or by operation of law, sell, assign, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer or hypothecate all or any part of the Premises or Tenant’s leasehold estate hereunder (each such act is herein referred to as an “Assignment”), or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant (each such act is herein referred to as a “Sublease”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, consent not to be unreasonably withheld..

 

15.

Utilities

 

15.1

Utilities

 

Landlord is responsible for providing utility services to the premises in accordance with existing permissions and contracts. Landlord is responsible for monitoring and allocating utility charges in accordance with historic costs paid. Landlord may isolate utility services to the premises and install separate meters if deemed appropriate. Tenant will not be responsible for any cost incurred in installing separate utility meters. Tenant shall pay all charges for all gas, electricity, light, heat, steam, power, water and sewage, telephone or other communication services used, and other services rendered or supplied, upon or in connection with the Premises during the term, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against and from any liability therefore.  In the event that any of the foregoing utilities are provided to users of the Building in common, Tenant’s shall be obligated only for Tenant’s share of the cost of the same. Tenant’s share of any such costs shall be determined by multiplying a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the rentable area of the Premises, and the denominator of which shall be the total rentable area of the Building. Tenant’s Share may be adjusted by Landlord from time to time to reflect adjustments to the then-current rentable area of the Building or the Premises.  Tenant acknowledges that the Premises and/or the Building may become subject to the rationing of Utility services or restrictions on Utility use as required by a public utility company, governmental agency or other similar entity having jurisdiction thereof.  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that its tenancy and occupancy hereunder shall be subject to such rationing or restrictions as may be imposed upon Landlord, Tenant, the Premises, and/or the Building, and Tenant shall in no event be excused or relieved from any covenant or obligation to be kept or performed by Tenant by reason of any such rationing or restrictions.  Tenant agrees to comply with energy conservation programs implemented by Landlord by reason of rationing, restrictions or applicable laws.  Landlord may elect to estimate the charges to be paid by Tenant under this Section 15.1 and bill such charges to Tenant monthly in advance, in which event Tenant shall promptly pay the estimated charges.  When the actual charges are determined by Landlord, an appropriate cash adjustment shall be made between Landlord and Tenant to account for any underpayment or overpayment by Tenant.

 

 

15.2	Interruption of Service

 

Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage to property caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption, or failure of Utilities due to any cause whatsoever, or from failure to make any repairs or perform any maintenance.  No temporary interruption or failure of such services incident to the making of repairs, alterations, improvements, or due to accident, strike, or conditions or other events shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder.  In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage to the Premises or for any loss, damage or injury to any property therein or thereon occasioned by bursting, rupture, leakage or overflow of any plumbing or other pipes (including, without limitation, water, steam, and/or refrigerant lines), sprinklers, tanks, drains, drinking fountains or washstands, or other similar cause in, above, upon or about the Premises or the Building.

 

15.3	Security Systems and Programs

 

Landlord shall have no liability for any safety or security devices or services in the Premises or the Building.  The risk that any safety or security device, service or program may not be effective, or may malfunction or be circumvented, is assumed by Tenant with respect to Tenant’s property and interests, and Tenant shall obtain insurance coverage to the extent Tenant desires protection against criminal acts and other losses.  Tenant agrees to cooperate with any reasonable safety or security program developed by Landlord or required by law.

 

16.

(b) Failure of Tenant to perform any of the provisions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, other than as described in Section 16.1(a), where such failure shall continue for fifteen (15) days after notice of such failure by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant’s default is such that more than fifteen (15) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences such cure within such fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

 

(c) The filing by or against Tenant of any action or proceeding under any federal or state insolvency, reorganization, bankruptcy or other debtor relief statute now or hereafter existing, (unless in the case of such action taken against Tenant, the same is dismissed within thirty (30) days); or the appointment of a trustee or receiver over, or the attachment of Tenant’s leasehold estate in the Premises or Tenant’s assets at the Premises that is not dismissed within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof.

(a) Termination.  Terminate this Lease by providing written notice of such termination to Tenant, in which case neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further rights or obligations under this Lease as of the date of termination, except with respect to any unpaid Rent and those amounts Tenant was obligated to pay to Landlord prior to the date of such termination; or terminate Tenant’s possessory rights, without terminating this Lease, in which case Landlord shall have the rights described below.  If Landlord elects to terminate the Lease, Landlord shall have the immediate right, after complying with all applicable legal requirements or with Tenant’s consent in lieu thereof, to enter and take possession of the Premises, and remove all persons, furniture, fixtures and equipment from the Premises, at Tenant’s sole expense, in order to recover at once, full and exclusive possession of the Premises.  Regardless of whether Landlord elects to terminate this Lease or terminate Tenant’s possessory rights, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs and damages arising out of Tenant’s Default, including, without limitation, (A) any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord (1) in retaking possession of the Premises; (2) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering, remodeling or rehabilitating the Premises or any affected portions of the Building, including such actions undertaken in connection with the reletting or attempted reletting of the Premises to a new tenant or tenants; (3) for leasing commissions, advertising costs and other expenses of reletting the Premises; or (4) in carrying the Premises, including taxes, insurance premiums, utilities and security precautions; (B) any unearned brokerage commissions paid in connection with this Lease; (C) reimbursement of any previously waived or abated Base Rent or Additional Rent or any free rent or reduced rental rate granted hereunder; and (D) any concession made or paid by Landlord to the benefit of Tenant in consideration of this Lease including, but not limited to, any moving allowances, contributions, payments or loans by Landlord for tenant improvements or build-out allowances (including without limitation, any unamortized portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, such Tenant Improvement Allowance to be amortized over the Term in the manner reasonably determined by Landlord), if any, and any outstanding balance (principal and accrued interest) of the Tenant Improvement Loan, if any), or assumptions by Landlord of any of Tenant’s previous lease obligations; plus such reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default, and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy; and at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.

 

 

(b) Re-entry/Reletting.  If Landlord elects to terminate Tenant’s possessory rights without terminating this Lease, Landlord shall have the right, after complying with all applicable legal requirements or with Tenant’s consent in lieu thereof, to enter and take possession of the Premises and remove all persons, furniture, fixtures and equipment from the Premises, at Tenant’s sole expense, in order to recover at once, full and exclusive possession of the Premises.  Should Landlord elect to terminate Tenant’s possessory rights without terminating this Lease, Landlord shall undertake to relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises in Landlord’s sole discretion.  In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied in the following order: (1) to reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedies; (2) to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (3) to the payment of any costs of such reletting; (4) to the payment of the costs of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; (5) to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and (6) the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent and other sums payable by Tenant hereunder as the same may become due and payable hereunder.  Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder, be less than the Rent payable during the month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord.  Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.

 

(c) No Termination.  No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 16.2 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of any Default by Tenant, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such Default.

 

(d) Cumulative Remedies.  The remedies herein provided are not exclusive and Landlord shall have any and all other remedies provided herein or by law or in equity.

 

(e) No Surrender.  No act or conduct of Landlord, whether consisting of the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be or constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term, and such acceptance by Landlord of surrender by Tenant shall only flow from and must be evidenced by a written acknowledgment of acceptance of surrender signed by Landlord.  The surrender of this Lease by Tenant, voluntarily or otherwise, shall not work a merger unless Landlord elects in writing that such merger take place, but shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and all existing subleases, or Landlord may, at its option, elect in writing to treat such surrender as a merger terminating Tenant’s estate under this Lease, and thereupon Landlord may terminate any or all such subleases by notifying the sublessee of its election so to do within five (5) days after such surrender.

 

 

(f) Landlord’s Lien. In addition to any statutory lien Landlord has, Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a continuing security interest for all sums of money becoming due hereunder upon the inventory, fixtures, equipment, accessions, furnishings, and such other property of Tenant now or hereafter situated on or about the Premises, and the proceeds therefrom (the “Personal Property Collateral”), and such property will not be removed from the Premises without the consent of Landlord until all sums of money then due Landlord have been first paid and discharged. The provisions of this Section constitute a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State where the Premises are located (the “Code”) so that Landlord has and may enforce a security interest on all of the Personal Property Collateral.  Consistent with the terms of the Code, Tenant authorizes Landlord to file a financing statement describing the above collateral.  If a default occurs under this Lease, Landlord will have, in addition to all other remedies of a secured party provided herein or by law, all rights and remedies under the Code, including, without limitation, the right to sell the Personal Property Collateral at public or private sale upon five (5) days’ notice to Tenant.  This contractual lien will be in addition to any statutory lien for rent.

 

(g) Utah Law.  The provisions of this Section 16.2 will be construed consistent with Utah law, so that remedies of Landlord herein described are available to Landlord to the full extent but only to the extent that they are not invalid or unenforceable under Utah law.

 

17.	Fees and Expenses; Indemnity; Payment

 

17.1	Landlord’s Right to Remedy Defaults

 

If Tenant shall default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease after notice and expiration of the applicable cure period, Landlord, may remedy such default at Tenant’s expense, without thereby waiving any other rights or remedies of Landlord with respect to such default.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to cure any failure by Tenant to perform any of its obligations under this Lease without notice to Tenant if such failure results in an immediate threat to life or safety of any person, or impairs the Building or its efficient operation.

 

17.2

17.3	Interest on Past Due Obligations

 

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any amount due from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease which is not paid within five (5) days from the date when due shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate of fifteen percent (10%) per annum.  The payment of such interest shall not alone excuse or cure any default under this Lease.

 

18.	Access to Premises

 

18.1	Landlord’s Right to Enter

 

Landlord reserves for itself and its agents, employees and independent contractors the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times (upon reasonable telephonic notice, if possible) to inspect the Premises, to supply any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees, beneficiaries or prospective tenants, to post notices of nonresponsibility, to determine whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building.  Tenant shall not place any locks on any interior doors in the Premises without the consent of Landlord and without providing Landlord with copies of the keys for such locks.  In the event of an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time without notice.  Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means that Landlord may deem necessary or proper to open doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises.  Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, any right to abatement of Rent or Additional Charges, or any other loss occasioned by Landlord’s exercise of any of its rights under this Article 18.  Tenant waives all rights to consequential damages (including, without limitation, damages for lost profits and lost opportunities) arising in connection with Landlord’s exercise of its right under this Section 18.1.

20.

No Waiver

 

No provision of this Lease may be waived, and no breach thereof shall be waived, except by a written instrument signed by the party against which the enforcement of the waiver is sought.  No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, no course of conduct between Landlord and Tenant, and no acceptance of the keys or to possession of the Premises before the termination of the Term by Landlord or any employee or representative of Landlord shall constitute a waiver of any breach or a waiver or modification of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease.  No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the aggregate of all Rent and Additional Charges then due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the first items of such Rent and Additional Charges then accruing or becoming due, unless Landlord elects otherwise.

Tenant, at any time and from time to time, within ten (10) days after written request, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, addressed (at Landlord’s request) to any prospective purchaser, ground or underlying lessor or mortgagee or beneficiary of any part of the Real Property, an estoppel certificate in form and substance reasonably designated by Landlord.  Tenant’s failure to do so within such ten (10) day period shall be conclusive upon Tenant that all facts set forth in Landlord’s proposed certificate are true and correct.

 

22.	Rules and Regulations

 

Tenant shall before and during the Term faithfully observe and comply with, and shall cause all occupants of the Premises to observe and comply with, the rules and regulations attached to this Lease as Exhibit C and all reasonable modifications thereof and additions thereto from time to time put into effect by Landlord (the “Rules and Regulations”).

In the interest of obtaining a speedier and less costly adjudication of any dispute, Landlord and Tenant hereby knowingly, intentionally, and irrevocably waive the right to trial by jury in any legal action, proceeding, claim, or counterclaim brought by either of them against the other on all matters arising out of or related to this Lease or the use and occupancy of the Premises.

 

25.4	Integration

25.7	Time of Essence

 

Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this Lease.

 

25.8	Broker’s Commissions

 

Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not entered into any agreement or incurred or created any obligation which might require the other party to pay any broker’s commission, finder’s fee or other commission or fee relating to the leasing of the Premises.  Each party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other and the other’s constituent partners and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against all claims for any such commissions or fees made by anyone claiming by or through the indemnifying party.

 

25.9	Recovery Against Landlord

 

Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Real Property for the recovery as provided under applicable law of any judgment against Landlord.  Landlord, or if Landlord is a partnership, its partners whether general or limited, or if Landlord or any constituent partner of Landlord is a corporation, its directors, officers and shareholders, shall never be personally liable for any such judgment.  In the event that any Landlord hereunder sells or conveys its interest in the Building, all liabilities and obligations on the part of such Landlord under this Lease accruing thereafter shall terminate and all such liabilities and obligations shall be binding upon the new owner.

 

25.10

Amendments

If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, or institutes any proceeding in a bankruptcy or similar court which has jurisdiction over the other party or any or all of its property or assets, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.  The fees recoverable, as provided above, shall include fees incurred on appeal and any other post-judgment proceeding.
