Landlord, however, shall use all reasonable efforts (including the institution of any eviction action needed to recover space from any holdover tenant) to deliver possession of each portion of

 

-3-


 

the Fourth Amendment Expansion Space to Tenant on the applicable Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Delivery Date for such space. If Landlord does not deliver possession of any Fourth Amendment Expansion Space to Tenant on or before the applicable Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Delivery Date, then the Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date for such space shall be delayed by one day for each day of such delay until the space is delivered to Tenant in accordance with the requirements of this Lease, but the foregoing shall not affect Tenant’s obligation to pay the Interim Occupancy Charge pursuant to Section 3 of this Amendment with respect to the Fourth Expansion Space.

 

  (b) Landlord hereby certifies to Tenant that the Rentable Area of each of the Fourth Amendment Expansion Spaces, as set forth in Section 2 of this Fourth Amendment, has been calculated on the basis of the definitions contained in Section 3.1 of the Original Lease.

 

5. Addition to Premises; Declarations. Each Fourth Amendment Expansion Space shall be added to the Premises on the applicable Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Delivery Date for such space as set forth in Section 4 of this Fourth Amendment and from and after such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Delivery Date, the term “Premises” wherever it appears in this Lease and any Exhibits thereto shall include such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space; except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent or Tenant’s Additional Rent with respect to such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space until the applicable Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date for such space. Landlord shall promptly after each Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date prepare a declaration (substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached to the Second Amendment) confirming the Commencement Date for the applicable Fourth Amendment Expansion Space and the other information set forth thereon. Tenant shall execute and return such declaration within twenty (20) days after submission. If Tenant fails to execute and return such declaration to Landlord within said twenty (20) day period, Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the information in the declaration is accurate and Tenant shall have thereby waived any right to object to the accuracy of such information unless Landlord has, during said twenty (20) day period, received a written notice from Tenant objecting to such information and describing in detail Tenant’s reasons for so objecting.

 

6. “As Is” Condition. Tenant agrees to accept each Fourth Amendment Expansion Space in its “as is” condition on the date possession of such space is delivered to Tenant; provided that each Fourth Amendment Expansion Space must comply with the Space Delivery Standards, and Landlord shall deliver such space broom clean, with all personal property removed. Tenant shall notify the Landlord of any base building systems or equipment that Tenant proposes to relocate or modify that are not in working order prior to relocating or modifying such systems or equipment. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be obligated to make any improvements to any of the Fourth Amendment Expansion Spaces and that Tenant shall not be entitled to any construction, build-out or other allowance with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 7 of this Fourth Amendment.

 

-4-


7. Improvement Allowances. To help pay for those costs which are incurred by Tenant in designing and constructing those improvements which Tenant desires to make to the Fourth Amendment Expansion Spaces (the “Fourth Amendment Improvements”), Landlord shall make each Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance available to Tenant. Landlord shall disburse each Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance on a monthly basis in accordance with customary construction disbursement procedures and upon receipt of a sworn construction statement and draw requests, with supporting invoices for actual costs incurred and lien waivers from all material contractors and subcontractors delivered one month in arrears; it being agreed, however, that Landlord shall not be required to disburse any portion of a Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance if Tenant is then in default of its obligations under the Lease. If the actual cost of the Fourth Amendment Improvements for any Fourth Amendment Expansion Space exceeds the amount of the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance for such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space, Tenant shall pay the excess costs without reimbursement from Landlord as and when such excess costs become due and payable. If Tenant has not submitted requisitions covering all of the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance for any Fourth Amendment Expansion Space on or before the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance Expiration Date for such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space, then up to, but not more than, $5.00 per square foot of any unused portion of the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance may be applied as a credit against the next installments of Rent due under this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Tenant may pool the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowances for use in paying the costs of designing and constructing improvements to any one or more of the Fourth Amendment Expansion Spaces, but Tenant shall not be entitled to draw upon a Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance prior to the Fourth Amendment Expansion Space Delivery Date for such Fourth Amendment Expansion Space, or after the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance Expiration Date. Landlord shall be permitted to offset against any Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance any amounts past due to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease.

Each Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance shall be treated by Landlord and Tenant as a tenant improvement allowance and all of the leasehold improvements that are constructed and paid for with each Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance shall be owned by Landlord. When Tenant submits a draw request and other supporting materials to Landlord requesting an advance of funds under any Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance (each, an “Advance”), Tenant shall in writing advise Landlord whether the check (or checks) in the amount of the requested Advance should be payable to Tenant and/or to one or more of Tenant’s contractors. If Tenant requests that a check for any Advance be made payable to any of Tenant’s contractors, Landlord shall nonetheless deliver such check to Tenant, so that Tenant may deliver the check to the relevant contractor. Promptly following disbursement in full of any Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance, Tenant will submit to Landlord a statement identifying the categories of work with respect to which the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance was disbursed, allocating to one or more of such categories of work amounts (in the

 

-5-


aggregate) equal to the total of the Advances made by Landlord under the Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance. Landlord will execute and return such statement within twenty (20) days after submission by Tenant. If Landlord fails to execute and return such statement and allocation to Landlord within said twenty (20) day period, Landlord shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed with such statement. If Landlord fails to pay any portion of an Fourth Amendment Applicable Improvement Allowance which is properly due and payable, the unpaid amount shall bear interest until paid at the Interest Rate, and if Landlord fails to pay such properly due and payable amount within ten (10) business days after receiving written notice from Tenant that such amount was not paid when due, then Tenant shall be entitled to offset said amounts (including interest) against Rent due and payable under the Lease.

 

8. Improvements. Any leasehold improvements that Tenant elects to make to the Fourth Amendment Expansion Spaces shall be completed in accordance with Section 9 of the Second Amendment and the remainder of the Lease, except that Ted Campbell is hereby designated at Landlord’s Designated Representative.

  (a) Commencing on November 1, 2010, Tenant shall pay as monthly “Base Rent” for the Fourth Expansion Space the amounts set forth in Section 1(d) of the Second Amendment.

Landlord and Tenant each warrant and defend to the other that it has not dealt with any broker in connection with this Amendment other than the Amendment Brokers; and Landlord and Tenant each agrees to indemnify and save the other for its breach of this warranty and representation, which will survive the termination of the Lease Term. Landlord agrees to pay any commission due to the Amendment Brokers as a result of this Amendment. The commission paid to CB Richard Ellis will be as set forth in a separate written agreement. As described in Section 26(b) of the Second Amendment, Landlord agrees to pay or caused to be paid to Tegra a commission in an amount equal to (i) $3.77 per square foot of the Rentable Area of the Fourth Floor Expansion Space and (ii) $3.05 per square foot of the Rentable Area of the Twelfth Floor Expansion Space, which commissions shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days after the date on which this Fourth Amendment has been fully executed and delivered.

EXHIBIT I

EXPANSION OPTION

1. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit I, Landlord hereby grants Tenant the option (the “Seventh Expansion Option”) to add the Seventh Expansion Space to the Premises. As used herein, the “Seventh Expansion Space” shall mean at least 15,000 square feet of the Rentable Area located, at Landlord’s election, on the 4th Floor of the Building, 3rd floor of the Tower, 13th floor of the Building or 14th floor of the Building, but in no event will the Rentable Area of such Seventh Expansion Space be greater than one full floor in the Building or Tower, as applicable. Possession of the Seventh Expansion Space shall be delivered to Tenant on the first day of any month chosen by Landlord during the period from (and including) July 1, 2012 to (and including) July 1, 2013 (the “Expansion Commencement Delivery Period”). Landlord shall give Tenant at least 60 days prior written notice of the date within the Expansion Commencement Delivery Period (the “Seventh Expansion Space Delivery Date”) that Landlord anticipates to deliver the Seventh Expansion Space to Tenant, but a later delivery shall have no effect on Tenant’s obligations under the Lease as long as the Seventh Expansion Space Delivery Date occurs by July 1, 2013. If Landlord fails to deliver said written notice, then July 1, 2013, shall be the Seventh Expansion Space Delivery Date.

2. Tenant shall have the right to exercise the Seventh Expansion Option by delivering written notice (“Tenant’s Expansion Notice”) of such election no later than December 31, 2011. Failure by Tenant to give timely notice of its exercise of the Seventh Expansion Option (“Tenant’s Exercise Notice”) shall constitute Tenant’s decision not to exercise the Seventh Expansion Option, which shall thereupon automatically terminate; it being agreed that time is of the essence and timely notice shall be an express and agreed condition of such exercise.

3. The Seventh Expansion Space shall be added to the Premises and leased to Tenant upon the same terms and conditions of this Lease (including, without limitation, Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s Additional Rent), except:

(a) Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent or Tenant’s Additional Rent for the Seventh Expansion Space until the earlier of (i) the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days after the date on which possession of the Seventh Expansion Space is delivered to Tenant, and (ii) the date on which Tenant takes occupancy of any portion of the Seventh Expansion Space for the conduct of its business (the “Seventh Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date”); provided that from and after the date on which possession of the Seventh Expansion Space is delivered to Tenant, the Seventh Expansion Space shall be part of the Premises for all purposes of this Lease other than Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and Tenant’s Additional Rent and Tenant shall be bound by and shall comply with all of the provisions of this Lease (including those terms and conditions pertaining to acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s representatives, employees, agents, and contractors);

 

I-1


(b) the Base Rent which Tenant shall pay for the Seventh Expansion Space shall be the same as the Base Rent as Tenant is obligated to pay from time to time for the First Expansion Space, as set forth in the Second Amendment;

(c) Tenant shall accept the Seventh Expansion Space in its “as is” condition on the date that possession of the Seventh Expansion Space is delivered to Tenant; except that the Seventh Expansion Space shall be delivered in accordance with the Space Delivery Standards, and Landlord shall deliver such space broom clean, with all personal property removed, and except that Landlord shall make an allowance available to Tenant in an amount equal to $0.42 per square foot of the Rentable Area of the Seventh Expansion Space for each month (or a pro rata portion thereof for any partial month) remaining in the First Extension Term as of the Seventh Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date during which Tenant shall pay Base Rent with respect to such Seventh Expansion Space to pay for those costs which are incurred by Tenant in designing and constructing those leasehold improvements which Tenant desires to make to the Seventh Expansion Space (the “Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance”). For so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, Landlord shall pay the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance on a monthly basis in accordance with customary construction disbursement procedures and upon receipt of a sworn construction statement and draw request, with supporting lien waivers from all material contractors and subcontractors delivered one month in arrears. Landlord shall be permitted to offset against the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance any amounts past due to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant has not submitted requisitions covering all of the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance or before the date (the “Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance Expiration Date”) that is twelve months after the Seventh Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date, then up to, but not more than, $5.00 per square foot of any unused portion of the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance may be applied as a credit against the next installments of Rent due under the Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Tenant shall not be entitled to draw upon the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance after the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance Expiration Date;

(d) The Term of this Lease for the Seventh Expansion Space shall expire upon the expiration of the Lease Term for the Existing Premises;

(e) The Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance shall be treated by Landlord and Tenant as a tenant improvement allowance and all of the leasehold improvements that are constructed and paid for with the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance shall be owned by Landlord;

(f) If Landlord fails to pay any portion of the Seventh Expansion Space Improvement Allowance which is properly due and payable, the unpaid amount shall bear interest until paid at the Interest Rate, and if Landlord fails to pay such properly due and payable amount within ten (10) business days after receiving

 

I-2


written notice from Tenant that such amount was not paid when due, then Tenant shall be entitled to offset said amounts (including interest) against Rent due and payable under the Lease.

4. Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Seventh Expansion Option if Capella Education Company has assigned this Lease other than to an Affiliate or in connection with a Permitted Transfer (as defined in Section 10.7 of the Lease) or if Capella Education Company has subleased more than twenty percent (20%) of the Rentable Area of the Premises other than to an Affiliate or in connection with a Permitted Transfer.

5. Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Seventh Expansion Option if on the date Tenant delivers a Tenant’s Expansion Notice an Event of Default exists under this Lease and, if at any time after Tenant exercises the Seventh Expansion Option until the date on which Landlord is scheduled to deliver possession of the Seventh Expansion Space to Tenant, an Event of Default exists under this Lease, Landlord shall, in addition to any other rights which Landlord may have under this Lease, have the right to terminate Tenant’s right to lease the Seventh Expansion Space by giving Tenant written notice of such termination.

6. Landlord shall promptly after the Seventh Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date prepare a declaration confirming the Seventh Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date and the Rentable Area of the Seventh Expansion Space and deliver such declaration to Tenant. If such declaration is complete and correct, Tenant shall execute and return such declaration within thirty (30) days after submission, failing which, Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the information in the declaration is accurate and Tenant shall have thereby waived any right to object to the accuracy of such information unless within such thirty (30) day period Tenant notifies Landlord of its reasons for objecting to the declaration.

7. Landlord shall not be liable for any delay in delivering or any failure to deliver possession of the Seventh Expansion Space to Tenant by reason of any holding over by any previous tenants or occupants of same, nor shall such failure impair the validity of the Lease. Landlord shall, however, use all reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Seventh Expansion Space in accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit I.

8. Tenant’s Seventh Expansion Option shall be independent of Tenant’s Right of Offer (as the same is modified by this Amendment) and no failure by Tenant to exercise its Right of Offer with respect to any Available Space shall affect Tenant’s Seventh Expansion Option.

I. Landlord, Tenant and Lender have agreed that the Existing SNDA shall have no further force or effect and shall be replaced in its entirety with the provisions of this Agreement.

AGREEMENT:

For good and valuable consideration, Tenant, Lender and Landlord agree as follows:

1. Subordination. The Lease and all of the terms, covenants and provisions thereof and all rights, remedies and options of Tenant thereunder are and shall at all times continue to be subject and subordinate in all respects to the terms, covenants and provisions of the Mortgage and to the lien thereof, including without limitation, all renewals, increases, modifications, spreaders, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and to all sums secured thereby and advances made thereunder with the same force and effect as if the Mortgage had been executed, delivered and recorded prior to the execution and delivery of the Lease.

2. Non-Disturbance. If any action or proceeding is commenced by Lender for the foreclosure of the Mortgage or the sale of the Property, Tenant shall not be named as a party therein unless such joinder shall be required by law, provided, however, such joinder shall not result in the termination of the Lease or disturb the Tenant’s possession or use of the Premises demised thereunder, and the sale of the Property in any such action or proceeding and the exercise by Lender of any of its other rights under the Mortgage shall be made subject to all rights of Tenant under the Lease, provided that at the time of the commencement of any such action or proceeding or at the time of any such sale or exercise of any such other rights (a) the Lease shall be in full force and effect, and (b) Tenant shall not be in default (after any applicable notice and cure period) of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease or of this Agreement on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed.

 

T-3


3. Attornment. If Lender or any other subsequent purchaser of the Property shall become the owner of the Property by reason of the foreclosure of the Mortgage or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or by reason of any other enforcement of the Mortgage (Lender or such other purchaser being hereinafter referred as “Purchaser”), and the conditions set forth in Section 2 above have been met at the time Purchaser becomes owner of the Property, the Lease shall not be terminated or affected thereby but shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Purchaser and Tenant upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Lease and in that event, Tenant agrees to attorn to Purchaser and Purchaser by virtue of such acquisition of the Property shall be deemed to have agreed to accept such attornment, provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be (a) liable for the failure of any prior landlord (any such prior landlord, including Landlord and any successor landlord, being hereinafter referred to as a “Prior Landlord”) to perform any of its obligations under the Lease which have accrued prior to the date on which Purchaser shall become the owner of the Property, provided that the foregoing shall not limit Purchaser’s obligations under the Lease to correct any conditions of a continuing nature that (i) existed as of the date Purchaser became the owner of the Property and (ii) violate Purchaser’s obligations as landlord under the Lease; provided further, however, that Purchaser shall have received written notice of such omissions, conditions or violations and shall have had a reasonable opportunity to cure the same, all pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease, (b) subject to any offsets, defenses, abatements or counterclaims which shall have accrued in favor of Tenant against any Prior Landlord prior to the date upon which Purchaser shall become the owner of the Property, except to the extent that such offsets are otherwise expressly provided for under the Lease or were used to fund any Improvement Allowance under the Lease including interest thereon or to fund the repairs, maintenance or other actions which would otherwise be an obligation of Purchaser upon its acquisition of the Property, (c) liable for the return of rental security deposits, if any, paid by Tenant to any Prior Landlord in accordance with the Lease unless such sums are actually received by Purchaser, (d) bound by any payment of rents, additional rents or other sums which Tenant may have paid more than one (1) month in advance to any Prior Landlord unless (i) such sums are actually received by Purchaser or (ii) such prepayment shall have been expressly approved of by Lender or Purchaser, (e) bound by any agreement terminating or amending or modifying the rent, term, commencement date or other material term of the Lease (except for Amendments to the Lease which are executed to memorialize rights granted in the Lease), or any voluntary surrender of the Premises demised under the Lease, made without Lender’s or Purchaser’s prior written consent prior to the time Purchaser succeeded to Landlord’s interest or (f) bound by any assignment of the Lease or sublease of the Property, or any portion thereof, made prior to the time Purchaser succeeded to Landlord’s interest other than if pursuant to the provisions of the Lease. In the event that any liability of Purchaser does arise pursuant to this Agreement, such liability shall be limited and restricted to Purchaser’s interest in the Property and shall in no event exceed such interest. Alternatively, upon the written request of Lender or its successors or assigns, Tenant shall enter into a new lease of the Premises with Lender or such successor or assign for the then remaining term of the Lease, upon the same terms and conditions as contained in the Lease (including, without limitation, any extension rights), except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

 

T-4


4. Notice to Tenant. After notice is given to Tenant by Lender that (a) the Landlord is in default under the Mortgage, (b) Lender has exercised its right under the assignment of leases and rents executed and delivered by Landlord to Lender in connection with the Mortgage (the “Assignment of Leases”), and has revoked the license granted to Landlord to collect rentals and monies due under the Lease, and (c) the rentals under the Lease should be paid to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Assignment of Leases, Tenant shall thereafter pay to Lender or as directed by the Lender, all rentals and all other monies due or to become due to Landlord under the Lease and Landlord hereby expressly authorizes Tenant to make such payments to Lender and hereby releases and discharges Tenant from any liability to Landlord on account of any such payments.

5. Lender’s Consent. None of the following shall be binding upon Lender without such action being taken with Lender’s prior consent: (a) any agreement amending, modifying or terminating the Lease (except for amendments to the Lease which are executed to memorialize rights granted in the Lease), (b) prepayment by Tenant of any of the rents, additional rents or other sums due under the Lease for more than one (1) month in advance of the due dates thereof, (c) except as expressly permitted under the Lease, Tenant’s voluntarily surrender of the Premises demised under the Lease, termination of the Lease, or shortening of the term thereof, or (d) assignment of the Lease or sublease of the premises demised under the Lease or any part thereof other than as permitted by and pursuant to the provisions of the Lease.

6. Notice to Lender and Right to Cure. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Lease to the contrary, no notice of cancellation thereof or of an abatement shall be effective unless Lender shall have received notice of default giving rise to such cancellation or abatement and (i) in the case of any such default that can be cured by the payment of money, until thirty (30) days shall have elapsed following the giving of such notice, or (ii) in the case of any other such default, until a reasonable period for remedying such default shall have elapsed following the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to cure any such default.

7. Notices. All notices or other written communications hereunder shall be deemed to have been properly given (i) upon delivery, if delivered in person or by facsimile transmission with receipt acknowledged by the recipient thereof and confirmed by telephone by sender, (ii) one (1) Business Day (hereinafter defined) after having been deposited for overnight delivery with any reputable overnight courier service, or (iii) three (3) Business Days after having been deposited in any post office or mail depository regularly maintained by the U.S. Postal Service and sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:
