2.02                        Reservations by Landlord.  Landlord excepts and reserves the roof and exterior walls of the Building, and further reserves the right to place, install, maintain, carry through, repair, and replace such utility lines, pipes, wires, appliances, tunneling, and the like in, over, through, and upon the Premises as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the servicing of the Premises or any other portions of the Project.

 

Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, it is agreed that Landlord reserves the right, without invalidating this Lease or modifying any provision thereof, at any time, and from time to time, (i) to make alterations changes, and additions to the Building and other improvements in the Project (including, without limitation, the Building in which the Premises are located), (ii) to add additional areas and buildings to the Project and/or to exclude areas therefrom, (iii) to construct additional buildings and other improvements in the Project, (iv) to remove or relocate the whole or any part of any building or other improvement in the Project, and (v) to relocate any other tenant in the Project.  It is further understood that the existing layout of the buildings, walks, roadways, parking areas, entrances, exits, and other improvements shall not be deemed to be a warranty, representation, or agreement on the part of Landlord that the Project shall remain exactly as presently built, it being understood and agreed that Landlord may change the number, dimensions, and locations of the walks, buildings, and parking spaces as Landlord shall deem proper.

 

3.                                      USE.

 

The Premises hereby leased shall be used by Tenant for the purpose specified in Section 1.01N and for no other purposes.  Landlord makes no representation to Tenant that the use limited in this Section 3 constitutes a lawful use under applicable zoning regulations, or that the lawful uses for the Premises as of the date of this Lease shall not change during the Lease Term.  Tenant shall, at its own expense, comply promptly with all applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, and requirements in effect during the Term or any part of the Term hereof regulating the use by Tenant or condition of the Premises.  Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the Premises in any manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance, or which will tend to unreasonably disturb other tenants in the Project.  Tenant shall not place a load upon the floor of the Building which exceeds that load per square foot which such floor was designed to carry or which is allowed by law.  Tenant, its employees, and all persons visiting or doing business with

Tenant in the Premises shall be bound by and shall observe the Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease as Exhibit B, and such further and other reasonable Rules and Regulations made hereafter by Landlord relating to the Project or the Premises, of which notice in writing shall be given to Tenant, and all such Rules and Regulations shall be deemed to be incorporated into and form a part of this Lease.  Tenant shall be solely responsible for providing security for the Premises, and for Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, customers, invitees, and others within the Premises.  Landlord shall have no responsibility therefor.

 

4.                                      TERM.

 

4.01                        Term of Lease.  To have and to hold the leased Premises for and during the” Lease Term described in Section 1.01G, commencing on the Commencement Date (defined in Section 4.02 below), subject to the payment of the Rent and the full and timely performance by Tenant of the covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth.

 

4.02                        Commencement Date.  As used in this Lease, the term “Commencement Date” shall mean the date the Premises are Ready for Occupancy (as defined in Section 4.04 below).  If the Commencement Date occurs on other than the first day of a month, Tenant shall pay Base Rent at the same monthly rate for such partial month (also in advance), any periods for rent adjustments shall be measured from the first day of the calendar month in which the Commencement Date falls and all other terms and conditions of this Lease shall be in force and effect during such partial month.  As soon as the Commencement Date is established Landlord and Tenant shall execute a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form of attached Exhibit C, which may be requested by either party, setting forth the exact Commencement Date and the Expiration Date to provide for the full term referenced in Section 1.01G from the Commencement Date.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.02 to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that at such time as Tenant occupies all or any portion of the Premises for the purposes permitted or allowed in this Lease, its Rental obligation shall commence.

 

4.03                        Landlords Work.  Landlord agrees to perform the work described in Exhibit D hereto (“Landlords Work”).  Other than Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall have no obligation for the completion or repair of the Premises and Tenant shall accept the Premises in its “as is” condition on the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Lease.

 

4.04                        Ready for Occupancy; Delay in Delivery.  Landlord shall deliver and Tenant shall accept possession of the Premises at such time as the Premises is Ready for Occupancy.  If the Premises, or any portion, is not “Ready for Occupancy” on the Commencement Date, Rent and other sums owing under this Lease attributable to the Premises shall not commence until the Premises is Ready for Occupancy.  The postponement of Rent and other sums herein provided to be paid by Tenant attributable to such space for any period prior to the delivery to Tenant of such space Ready for Occupancy shall be in full settlement of all claims which Tenant might otherwise have by reason of such space not being Ready for Occupancy on the Commencement Date.  “Ready for Occupancy” as used herein shall mean the date that Landlord shall have substantially completed Landlord’s Work, subject only to the completion of “punch list” items of a minor nature.  The issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for such space (or its

 

3



 

equivalent), or certification by Landlord’s contractor, architect or space planner verifying substantial completion of Landlord’s Work shall conclusively control the date upon which the space is Ready for Occupancy and the commencement of Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent.  In the event Tenant’s acts or omission delay the completion of Landlord’s Work, Landlord’s Work shall be deemed Ready for Occupancy on the date Landlord’s Work would have been substantially completed in the absence of Tenants acts or omission that caused the delay.  Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, should Landlord fail to have the Premises Ready for Occupancy within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of this Lease (such date extended if failure to have the Premises Ready for Occupancy is due to Force Majeure, as referenced in Section 14), then Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon written notice (which shall be delivered if at all within thirty (30) days after the date Tenant is entitled to terminate the Lease pursuant to this Section and if not timely delivered, then Tenant’s termination right shall lapse), the effective date of termination to be at least thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of Tenant’s notice; provided, however, should Landlord have the Premises Ready for Occupancy prior to the date set forth in Tenant’s notice then such termination notice shall be of no force and effect and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect between the parties.  In the event this Lease is terminated as provided immediately above, then neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any claim or obligation to the other by reason of this Lease or the termination thereof.

 

4.05                        Early Possession.  Tenant shall be permitted to enter the Premises after the later of (i) full execution and delivery of this Lease or (ii) the vacation of the Premises by the existing tenant, and prior to the Commencement Date without the obligation for payment of rent for the purpose of installing fixtures and equipment; provided that (a) Tenant will not interfere with Landlord’s construction of the Landlord’s Work, (b) Tenant first provides Landlord with all insurance required by the terms of this Lease, and (c) all construction by Tenant shall be performed in accordance with the terms of this Lease.  Without limiting any other provision of this Lease, Landlord shall not be responsible for damages or loss to any work performed by Tenant or to Tenant’s personal property or the personal property of Tenant’s contractor’s, employees or agents which occurs during such period of early access.

 

5.                                      BASE RENT.

 

Tenant agrees to pay Landlord the Base Rent set out in Section 1.01I for the full Term.  The first full monthly installment of Base Rent shall be payable upon the execution of this Lease by Tenant.  Thereafter, each succeeding monthly installment shall be due and payable on or before the first day of each and every successive calendar month during the Term.  In the event the Term of this Lease ends on a date other than the last day of a month, the last monthly payment of Base Rent shall be in a pro rata portion of the then applicable Base Rent for such partial month based on the number of days in such partial month prior to and including the last day of the Term of this Lease.

 

The Base Rent and all other Rent or other charges provided for herein shall be paid to Landlord without deduction or offset, and in lawful money of the United States of America to such persons and at such place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.  For purposes of rent adjustment under the Lease, the number of months is measured from the first day of the calendar month in which the Commencement Date falls.  Landlord and Tenant agree

 

4



 

for tax reporting purposes that none of the Base Rent due in periods in which the Base Rent is not being abated shall be allocated to any other period.

 

6.                                      UTILITIES AND SERVICES.

 

Tenant shall contract in its own name and pay for all charges for water, sewer, electricity, gas, fuel, telephone, trash hauling, and any other services or utilities used in, servicing, or assessed against the Premises, unless otherwise herein expressly provided.

 

7.                                      QUIET ENJOYMENT.

8.                                      ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

 

8.01                        No Assignments.  Except as expressly permitted in this paragraph, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign or hypothecate this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises by any party other than Tenant.  Any of the foregoing acts without such consent shall be void and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate this Lease.  This Lease shall not, nor shall any interest herein, be assignable as to the interest of Tenant by operation of law without the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  A transfer of a majority interest or control of the stock or capital or member interest of Tenant shall be deemed an assignment under this Lease requiring Landlord’s consent.

 

8.02                        Limits on Subletting.  No sublease shall be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord agrees will not unreasonably be withheld.  If at any time or from time to time during the term of this Lease, Tenant desires to sublet all or any part of the Premises, Tenant shall give notice to Landlord setting forth the terms of the proposed subletting and the space so proposed to be sublet and such additional information concerning the subtenant as Landlord may request, including, without limitation, the name of the proposed subtenant; the nature of the proposed subtenant’s business to be carried on in the Premises; the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease and a copy of the proposed sublease form; and such financial information, including financial statements, as Landlord reasonably may request concerning the proposed subtenant.  Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by notice given to Tenant within ninety (90) days after Tenant’s notice is given, either to sublet from Tenant such space at the rental and other terms set forth in Tenant’s notice, or, if the proposed subletting is for the entire Premises and for the substantial balance of the Term of this Lease, to terminate this Lease.  If Landlord does not elect to terminate and has consented to such sublease, Tenant shall be free to sublet such space to any third party subject to the following conditions:

 

1.                                      The sublease shall be on the same terms set forth in the notice given to Landlord;

 

5



 

2.                                      No sublease shall be valid and no sublessee shall take possession of the Premises subleased until an executed counterpart of such sublease has been delivered to Landlord;

 

3.                                      No sublessee shall have a right further to sublet; and

 

4.                                      One hundred percent (100%) of any sums or other economic consideration received by Tenant as a result of such subletting (excluding brokerage commissions amortized over the term of the sublease and rental or other payments received by Tenant which are attributable to the amortization of the costs of leasehold improvements, other than building standard tenant improvements, made by Tenant to the sublet portion of the Premises) whether denominated as rentals under the sublease or otherwise and which exceed, in the aggregate, the total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (prorated to reflect Tenant’s obligation to pay rent under this Lease allocable to that portion of the Premises subject to such sublease) shall be payable to Landlord.

 

8.03                        Permitted Assignment/Subletting.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 8.01 and 8.02 above, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord’s consent and without extending any option to Landlord, to any corporation which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation resulting from the merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to any person or entity which acquires all the assets of Tenant provided that said assignee (i) assumes each and every obligation of Tenant under this Lease and (ii) such assignee has a tangible net worth that equals or exceeds Tenant’s tangible net worth on the date of this Lease or on the date of the transfer, whichever is greater.

 

8.04                        Tenant Not Released.  Regardless of Landlord’s consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Tenant or Tenant’s obligations hereunder or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder.  The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof.  Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent or different assignment or subletting.  In the event of default by any assignee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee or successor.

 

8.05                        Attorney Fees.  In the event Tenant shall assign or sublet the Premises or request the consent of Landlord to any assignment or subletting or if Tenant shall request the consent of Landlord for any act that Tenant proposes to do, then Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable attorney fees incurred in connection therewith.

18.01                 Maintenance and Care by Tenant.  Tenant shall be responsible for all maintenance and repair to the Premises of whatsoever kind or nature that is not hereinafter set forth specifically as the obligation of Landlord.  Tenant shall take good care of the Premises and fixtures, and keep them in good repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted), free from filth, overloading, danger of fire, or any pest or nuisance, and shall repair any damage or breakage done by Tenant or its agents, employees, or invitees, including damage done to the Premises by Tenant’s equipment and/or installations.  Tenant shall be responsible for the repair and replacement of all glass and plate glass on the Premises.  Tenant shall maintain and pay for a service contract with a licensed contractor for the upkeep, maintenance, repair, and periodic servicing of the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems servicing the Premises.  Tenant shall supply Landlord, from time to time, such information as Landlord reasonably requests to verify the services being performed under the service contract.  The Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may elect to enter into a service contract for the maintenance and periodic inspection of the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning equipment in which event Tenant shall within ten (10) days of billing therefore, reimburse Landlord for the costs of such service contract allocated to the Premises.  In the event that Tenant fails to maintain the Premises as required herein, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform such maintenance and/or repairs, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of the billing by Landlord, reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s costs in providing such maintenance and/or repairs, together with a fifteen percent (15%) charge for Landlord’s overhead.  Upon termination of the Lease Tenant shall deliver the Premises to Landlord in a broom-clean condition.

18.04                 Mechanic’s Liens.  Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s liens or other liens to be placed upon the Premises, the Building, or the Project during the Term of this Lease, and in the case of the filing of any such lien, Tenant shall promptly pay same; however, Tenant shall have the right to contest the validity or amount of any such lien upon Tenant’s prior posting of security with Landlord, which security, in Landlord’s sole judgment, must be adequate to pay and discharge any such lien in full, plus Landlord’s reasonable estimate of its legal fees.  Tenant agrees to pay all legal fees that might be incurred by Landlord because of any mechanic’s liens or other liens placed upon the Premises.

20.02                 Compliance with Hazardous Materials Laws.  Tenant shall at all times and in all respects comply with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to or involving the use, generation, manufacture, storage, discharge, release, disposal or transportation of any materials, substances or wastes which are considered to be or may be hazardous to human health or safety or to the environment due to their radioactivity, ignitability, corrositivity, reactivity, carcinogenicity, infectiousness or other harmful or potential harmful properties and which are defined as or included within the definition of “hazardous materials,” “toxic substances” or “chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity” under any Hazardous Materials Laws (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”).  All laws, ordinances and regulations relating to industrial hygiene, environmental protection or the use, analysis, generation, manufacture, storage, discharge, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials are collectively referred to herein as “Hazardous Materials Laws”.

21.                               ADDITIONAL RENT.

 

21.01                 Real Estate Taxes.

 

1.                                      Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional Rent, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s Real Estate Taxes for the Project for each Tax Year during the Term of this Lease or any renewal, extension, or holding over hereof.  Such additional Rent payments by Tenant shall be due and payable on the first day of each month during each Tax Year, each such payment in an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s obligation for Real Estate Taxes for the applicable Tax Year.  The sum set out in Section 1.01M shall be the monthly charge for the first Tax Year.  For each subsequent Tax Year the amount payable under Section 1.01M shall be adjusted to reflect Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s obligation for Real Estate taxes for that Tax Year.  In the event the sum of such monthly payments by Tenant for a particular Tax Year exceeds Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s Real Estate Taxes for the applicable Tax Year,

 

16



 

provided Tenant is not in default, Landlord shall refund or credit such excess payment to Tenant.  In the event the sum of Tenant’s monthly payments for a particular Tax Year is less than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s Real Estate Taxes for the applicable Tax Year, Tenant shall pay such deficiency upon demand.  “Tax Year”, as used herein, shall mean each calendar year during the Term of the Lease or any renewal, extension, or holding over hereof in which Real Estate Taxes are billed against the Project regardless of the Year in which the assessment for Real Estate Taxes occurs.  For the purposes of this Section, the first Tax Year shall be the calendar year in which the Lease Term commences.

 

2.                                      “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean:  (a) all ad valorem Real Estate Taxes on the Project (adjusted after protest or litigation, if any) for any part of the Term of this Lease, exclusive of penalties; (b) any taxes which shall be levied in lieu of any such ad valorem Real Estate Taxes; (c) any special assessments for benefits on or to the Project paid or payable in annual installments by Landlord; (d) occupational taxes or excise taxes levied on rentals derived from the operation of the Project for the privilege of leasing property; and (e) the expense of protesting, negotiating, or contesting the amount or validity of any such taxes, charges, or assessments, such expense to be applicable to the Tax Year of the item contested, protested, or negotiated.

 

3.                                      If the Term of this Lease shall end during a Tax Year of which only part is included in the Term hereof, the amount of such additional Rent shall be prorated on a per diem basis and shall be paid on or before the last day of the Term.  If the Term of this Lease ends during any Tax Year before the amount of the Real Estate Taxes is established and the amount payable by Tenant has not been finally determined under the provisions of this Section, an amount payable for that portion of the Lease Term during the Tax Year shall be reasonably estimated by Landlord, and the estimated amount shall be promptly paid by Tenant should such estimated amount paid by Tenant exceed its actual obligation under this Section then Landlord shall refund such excess amount.

 

21.02                 Common Expenses.

 

1.                                      During the Term of this Lease or any renewal, extension, or holding over hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional Rent, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Common Expenses.

 

2.                                      For the purpose of this Section, the “Common Expense” means Landlord’s total costs and expenses incurred during each Lease year in connection with owning, operating, maintaining, and repairing the Project, herein defined, including, but without limitation by enumeration:  costs for all management fees, electrical current, gas, water, sewer, or fuels used in connection with the operation, maintenance, and repair of the Common Areas or the Building; the amount paid for all electricity furnished to the Common Area to light the parking lots or for any other common purpose; the amount paid for all labor and/or wages and other payments, including costs to Landlord of worker’s compensation and disability

 

17



 

insurance, payroll taxes, and welfare and fringe benefits, made to janitors, employees, contractors, and subcontractors of Landlord who are involved in the operation and maintenance of the Common Areas and the Project; charges of any independent contractors employed in the care, operation, maintenance, cleaning, and landscaping of the Common Areas; the amount paid for all supplies, tools, replacements parts or components, equipment, and necessities which are occasioned by everyday wear and tear; the premiums for all insurance maintained by Landlord for the Project; and the pro rata costs of machinery and equipment purchased and/or leased by Landlord in order to perform Common Area maintenance.  To the extent that Landlord provides services which are not separately metered or directly billed to Tenant the costs of such services shall be included in the Common Expenses.  Common Expenses shall not include interest on debt, capital retirement of debt and depreciation; however Common Expenses shall include Landlord’s capital expenditures incurred for the purpose of reducing Common Area or Building operating costs and capital expenditures incurred by Landlord that are required by changes or amendments in laws or regulations governing the Premises or the Project, plus interest on the unamortized costs of each such capital expenditure at the rate of 10% per annum or such higher rate as Landlord may have incurred on funds borrowed to construct such improvements, amortized over the useful life of the respective improvements of a capital nature.  If Landlord elects to self-insure or includes the Project under blanket insurance policies covering multiple properties, then the term “Common Expenses” shall also include the portion of the cost of such self-insurance or blanket insurance allocated by Landlord to this Project.

 

3.                                      For the purposes of this Section, the term “Lease Year” shall mean in the case of the first Lease Year, that period from the Commencement Date of the Term to the first succeeding December 31; thereafter, “Lease Year” shall mean each successive twelve (12) calendar month period following the expiration of the first Lease Year except that should the Expiration Date be any day other than on December 31, then the last Lease Year shall be the period from the end of the preceding Lease Year to the Expiration Date.

 

21.03                 Payment of Common Expense.  Tenant’s obligation for the Common Expenses for each Lease Year during the Lease Term shall be paid in monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month in advance.  The first Lease Year’s monthly installment amount is set out in Section 1.01L above.  Within a reasonable period after the end of the first Lease Year and within a reasonable period after the end of each Lease Year thereafter, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Tenant’s monthly obligation for Common Expenses which Landlord estimates it will incur for the then current Lease Year and the Common Expenses provided for in Section 1.01L shall be adjusted accordingly on the first day of the first month following such notice.  Within a reasonable period after the end of each Lease Year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement of the actual amount of Tenant’s obligation for Common Expenses for such period.  In the event the total of Tenant’s monthly installments paid for any Lease Year does not equal Tenant’s Proportionate Share as shown on such statement, then Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of the mailing of the statement, pay Landlord any deficiency, or Landlord upon receipt of such annual statement shall issue to Tenant a credit invoice for such excess, as the case may be.  Upon

 

18



 

request delivered by Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date that Landlord delivers Landlord s statement, Landlord shall provide additional detail to Tenant regarding the calculation of Common Expenses for the year in question.  The statement of Common Expenses shall be presumed correct and shall be deemed final and binding upon Tenant unless Tenant in good faith objects in writing thereto within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement to Tenant (which writing shall state, in reasonable detail, all of the reasons for the objection); and Tenant pays in full, within ten (10) days after delivery of the statement to Tenant, the amount shown on the statement as being owed by Tenant, regardless of whether such amount is in dispute.  Tenant’s dispute of any amount shown on Landlord’s statement shall not excuse Tenant from promptly paying such amount as required above, provided however if it is determined that the amount specified in Landlord’s statement as being payable by Tenant was over stated and Tenant has otherwise complied with the requirements of this Section, then Landlord shall pay or credit to Tenant the amount of such overcharge.  Tenant’s failure to pay the amount shown on Landlord’s statement within ten (10) days after delivery thereof or Tenant’s failure to pay in a timely manner the revised estimate of Landlord’s determination of Common Expenses shall be deemed an irrevocable waiver of Tenant s right to contest and/or receive any credit or reimbursement for an overcharge of Common Expenses shown on the Landlord’s statement under which payment is required at that time.

 

22.                               DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

 

22.01                 Events of Default.  The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default on the part of Tenant.

 

(A)                               Tenant shall at any time fail to pay Rent when due; or

 

(B)                               Tenant shall fail to keep, perform, or observe any other covenant, agreement, condition, or undertaking described hereunder and shall fail to remedy such default within ten (10) days after written notice thereof has been mailed by Landlord to Tenant; or if such default is one that will take longer than ten (10) days to remedy, Tenant fails to commence the cure of such default within said ten (10) day period and/or fails to diligently pursue such cure to completion; or

 

(C)                               This Lease or the Premises or any part thereof shall be taken upon execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant or shall be taken upon or subject to any attachment at the instance of any creditor of or claimant against Tenant and said attachment shall not be discharged or disposed of within fifteen (15) days after the levy thereof; or

 

(D)                               There is a filing of any petition or commencement of any case or proceeding by Tenant under any provision or chapter of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or any other federal or state law relating to Tenant’s insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization; or

 

(E)                                There is a filing of any petition or commencement of any case or proceeding described in subparagraph (D) above against Tenant, unless such petition and all

 

19


 

proceedings initiated thereby are dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date of such filing; or

 

(F)                                 The Premises shall be vacated or abandoned by Tenant, regardless of whether or not Tenant continues to pay Rent.

 

22.02                 Remedy.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default Landlord shall have the right, without further notice to or demand upon Tenant, to re-enter and take exclusive possession of the Premises, with or without force or legal process; to refuse to allow Tenant to enter the same or have possession thereof; to change the locks on the doors to the Premises; to take possession of any furniture or other property in or upon the Premises (Tenant hereby waiving the benefit of all exemptions by law) and to sell the same at public or private sale without notice and apply the proceeds thereof to the costs of sale, payment of damages, and payment of the Rent due under this Lease; all without Landlord being liable to Tenant for any damages or any prosecution therefor; and Landlord shall have the right;

 

(i)                                     As an agent of Tenant, to relet the Premises for the balance of the Term of this Lease or for a shorter or longer Term, with or without the granting of free rent or other market concessions, and to receive the rents therefor; applying them first to the payment of all of Landlord’s expenses of such reletting, such as, reasonable and customary repairs, improvements, broker’s commissions and, second, to the payment of remedying all damages suffered to the Premises and, third, to all Rent due and thereafter becoming due under this Lease, with Tenant remaining liable for and hereby agreeing to pay Landlord any such deficiency on a monthly basis during the Lease Term on the days Rent would be due hereunder; or

 

(ii)                                  To cancel and terminate the remaining Term of this Lease, regardless of whether Landlord has previously elected to relet or has relet the Premises as permitted in (i) above, to re-enter and take possession of the Premises free of this Lease, and thereafter this Lease shall be null and void, and the Rent in such case shall be apportioned and paid on and up to the date of such entry and possession by Landlord.  Thereafter Tenant shall be liable for and pay all Rents accrued, due or owing as of the date or termination, as well as the costs to repair damage to the Premises incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenants breach or default of this Lease; or

 

(iii)                               To treat such default as a breach of this Lease and terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant and recover from Tenant as damages for such breach:

 

(a)                                 the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus

 

(b)                                 the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination

 

20



 

until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

 

(c)                                  the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus

 

(d)                                 any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; plus

 

(e)                                  such reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of such default, and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy; and

 

(f)                                   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.

 

As used in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.  As used in subparagraph (c) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award, plus one percent (1%).

 

All rights and remedies expressly provided in the Lease for Landlord’s protection shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.  Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Landlord in enforcing its rights hereunder.  In the event Landlord elects to re-enter or take possession of the Premises, Tenant agrees to quit and peaceable surrender the Premises and possess and repossess itself thereof, and may have, hold, and enjoy the Premises and the right to receive all rental income of and from the same.  No such re-entry and taking of possession by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate or surrender this Lease unless Landlord gives notice to Tenant specifically terminating the Lease.  Unless a written notice of such intention is served on Tenant, any service of demand for the payment of rent or possession required under applicable law to recover the Premises does not constitute an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease, nor shall such notice or re-entry by Landlord or forfeiture by Tenant relieve Tenant of its continuing liability for unaccrued rent.

 

A waiver by Landlord of any breach or default by Tenant under the terms and conditions of this Lease shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or of any other term or condition of this Lease, and a failure of Landlord to assert any breach or to declare a default by Tenant shall not be construed to constitute a waiver thereof, so long as such breach or default continues unremedied.

 

22.03                 Landlord’s Default.  Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord hereunder unless and until Landlord has

 

21



 

failed to perform the obligation within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform the obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than fifteen (15) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if Landlord shall commence the performance within the fifteen (15) day period and thereafter shall diligently prosecute the same to completion.  Upon Landlord’s default, Tenant shall be entitled to exercise all rights, powers and remedies provided hereunder, at law, or in equity.  In addition, during such default, rent shall be abated as appropriate.

 

22.04                 Landlord’s Right to Perform Tenant’s Covenants.  If Tenant shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed under this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make the payment or perform any other act to the extent Landlord may deem desirable and, in connection therewith, pay expenses and employ counsel.  Any payment or performance by Landlord shall not waive or release Tenant from any obligations of Tenant under this Lease.  All sums so paid by Landlord, and all penalties, interest and costs in connection therewith, shall be due and payable by Tenant on the next day after any payment by Landlord, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 32), from that date to the date of payment thereof by Tenant to Landlord, plus collection costs and attorneys’ fees.  Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment thereof as in the case of default in the payment of Rent.

 

23.                               NOTICES.

 

Except as other wise herein provided, whenever by the terms of this Lease notice shall or may be given either to Landlord or to Tenant, such notice shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly served if delivered personally, sent by Federal Express or other national overnight courier or through the U.S. Postal Service, certified mail, postage prepaid, to Landlord at the addresses set forth below or such other person or place as Landlord may designate in writing and to Tenant at the Premises.  The date of personal delivery or receipt of the notice, one (1) business day after deposit with such overnight courier or three (3) business days after mailing, whichever is earlier shall be deemed the date of service of notice.  Notice may also be served by Landlord or Tenant in the same manner as provided for personal service under the Rules of Civil Procedure in the State of Utah.  Landlord’s addresses for notice are as follows:

24.                               PERSONS BOUND.

 

The agreements, covenants, and conditions of this Lease shall be binding upon and shall insure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns of each of the parties hereto, except that no assignment, encumbrance, or subletting by Tenant, unless permitted by the provisions of this Lease, without the prior written consent of Landlord, shall vest any right of an assignee, encumbrance, or sublessee of Tenant.  The singular herein, in referring to either Landlord or Tenant, shall be deemed to include the plural where the context so requires.  If there be more than one Tenant herein named, the provisions of this Lease shall be applicable to and binding upon such Tenant jointly and severally.

 

25.                               SECURITY DEPOSIT.

 

Tenant herewith deposits with Landlord the sum referenced in the Basic Terms as a Security Deposit for the performance by Tenant of every covenant and condition of this Lease.  Said deposit may be commingled with other funds of Landlord and shall bear no interest.  If Tenant shall default with respect to any covenant or condition of this Lease, Landlord may apply the whole or any part of such Security Deposit to the payment of any sum in default or any sum which Landlord may be required to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, including, but not limited to, applying the Security Deposit first to the costs of any restoration and/or cleanup made necessary by reason of above normal wear and tear of the Premises.  It is agreed that the Security Deposit is not to be considered as the last month’s Rent under this Lease.  Should Tenant comply with all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant within a reasonable time after the expiration of the Term hereof.  If Landlord uses or applies all or any portion of the deposit, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefore deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the deposit to the full amount hereinabove stated and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease.  If the Base Rent shall, from time to time, increase during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall thereupon deposit with Landlord additional sums so that the amount of Security Deposit held by Landlord shall at all times bear the same proportion to current Base Rent as the original Security Deposit bears to the original Base Rent set forth in Section 1.01I hereof.

 

26.                               [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

 

27.                               SUBORDINATION/FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

 

Landlord shall have the right to transfer, mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber, assign or convey in whole or in part the Premises, building, Project, this Lease and all rents and amounts payable by Landlord under the provisions hereof, and Tenant shall continue its performance hereunder notwithstanding any such transfer.  At Landlord’s option, or at the option of any mortgagee or ground lessee of Landlord, this Lease shall be made subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust or any other hypothecation or security now or hereafter placed upon or affecting real property of which the premises are a part and to any and all

 

23



 

advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof pursuant to a written subordination agreement between Tenant and any such ground lessee or mortgagee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination of Tenant’s interest pursuant to the terms hereof shall be conditional on such mortgagee or ground lessee entering into a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement with Tenant, which shall provide for the continuation of the Lease for the remaining term hereof on the terms and conditions hereof, notwithstanding the termination of any relevant ground lease or a foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer under any mortgage or deed of trust affecting the Project or the Premises, so long as Tenant shall have paid rent and all other sums required to be paid under this lease and shall otherwise be in compliance with the terms hereof.  Tenant agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an attornment or subordination pursuant to the terms hereof and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as its agent and attorney to execute and deliver any such instrument for and in the name of Tenant if Tenant fails to do so within ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord or any ground lessee or mortgagee.  Any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor may elect to have the Lease prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease and upon written notice to Tenant this lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease whether this Lease is dated prior subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of recording thereof.

 

If Landlord desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Premises or any part thereof, Tenant hereby agrees to deliver to any lender or purchaser designated by Landlord such financial statements of Tenant as may be reasonably requested by such lender or purchaser.  Such statements shall include the past three (3) years’ financial statements of Tenant.  All such financial statements shall be received by Landlord and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall only be used for the purposes herein set forth.

 

28.                               ATTORNEY’S FEES.

 

If either party brings an action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action, on trial or appeal, shall be entitled to its reasonable attorney’s fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court.

 

29.                               PARKING.

 

Tenant’s employees, customers, invitees and visitors shall park only in areas designated for parking of vehicles.

 

30.                               EXAMINATION OF LEASE.

31.                               BROKER’S COMMISSIONS.Tenant and Landlord each represent and warrant to the other that neither has had any dealings with any person, firm, broker or finder (other than those persons, if any, whose names are set forth in this Paragraph 31) in connection with the negotiation of this Lease and/or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, and no other broker or other person, firm or entity is entitled to any commission or finder’s fee in connection with said transaction and Tenant and Landlord do each hereby indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees or liability for compensation, commission or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or actions of the indemnifying party.  Named brokers:

The Lease is amended to conform to the terms and conditions of this First Amendment and in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this First Amendment and the Lease, the provisions of this First Amendment shall control; but in all other respects, the provisions of the Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and are hereby ratified and affirmed.

3.                                      Base Rent.  Base Rent for the extended portion of the Lease Term shall be as follows:

 

June 1, 2011 - November 30, 2011 $10,850.00 per month

 

4.                                      Option to Extend.  Provided that Tenant is not then in default under the Lease, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease Term for one additional six (6) month period, such that the Expiration Date would be May 31, 2012, at the same Base Rent of $10,850.00 per month, plus all other amounts that comprise “Rent” under the Lease.  To exercise its right, Tenant must give Landlord notice in writing of its intent to extend the Lease Term no later than August 3 1, 201 1.  Should Tenant exercise its right, except only the Expiration Date, the extension shall be on the same terms and conditions set forth in this paragraph for the first extension period.

 

5.                                      Right of First Offer.  Landlord grants to Tenant a one time right of first offer (“ROFO”) to lease Suite 3610, totaling 10,000 square feet (the “ROFO Space”), should it come

 

1



 

available during the Lease Term.  The ROFO shall be subordinate and secondary to all rights of expansion, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, or similar rights granted to tenants under any existing tenant space leases within the Building and existing as of the date of the ROFO Notice (as defined below).  The rights described in this paragraph shall be known collectively as “Superior Rights.” Landlord shall give Tenant written notice when Landlord determines that the ROFO Space is available for lease (the “ROFO Notice”), as long as no Superior Right has been exercised or asserted.

 

The ROFO Notice shall (a) state the Base Rent proposed by Landlord for the ROFO Space (the “ROFO Rent”); and (b) slate the estimated date that Landlord then-anticipates the ROFO Space will be available for delivery to Tenant.  All other terms and conditions for leasing the ROFO Space shall be as set forth in the Lease, except for any improvement allowances, tenant improvements by Landlord, and other tenant inducements therein, if Tenant wishes to exercise the ROFO, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord written notice (“Exercise Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, within ten (10) business days after receipt of the ROFO Notice.  The ROFO Rent shall be as set forth in the ROFO Notice, except that if Tenant disagrees with the ROFO Rent proposed by Landlord, Tenant shall include in the Exercise Notice Tenant’s counter-proposal for ROFO Rent.  Tenant must elect to exercise the ROFO, if at all, only with respect to all of the ROFO Space, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion of such space.  If Tenant fails to timely deliver the Exercise Notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its ROFO and Landlord shall thereafter be free to lease the ROFO Space to any third party.

 

If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on ROFO Rent by the date thirty (30) days after the Exercise Notice, the ROFO Rent shall be determined by arbitration as set forth herein, in such event, ROFO Rent shall be at the “Market Rate”, which is described as follows:

 

The Base Rent that would be agreed to by a landlord and a new tenant, each of whom is willing, but neither of whom is compelled, to enter into the lease transaction, The Market Rate shall not take into account any existing tenant improvements or any special uses or rights afforded to Tenant under the Lease in connection with the Premises, but shall take into account the following factors:

 

i.                                          Rent for comparable premises in comparable existing buildings (taking into consideration, but not limited to, use, location within the applicable building, definition of net rentable area, quality, age, and location of the applicable buildings):

 

ii.                                       The length of the remaining Lease ‘term; and

 

iii.                                  The extent to which inducements such as tenant improvement allowances, rent credits, moving allowances, space planning allowances, or similar inducements given to tenants affect the determination of Market Rent for the Base Rate.

 

The determination of the appraiser(s) shall be limited to the sole issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s proposed ROFO Rent is the closest to the Market Rate as determined by the appraiser(s).  if the parties agree upon a single appraiser, such appraiser’s decision shall be

 

2



 

final and binding upon both parties, if the parties fail to agree upon a single appraiser within forty (40) days after the Exercise Notice, there shall be an arbitration by three (3) appraisers, in which case either party shall name one appraiser by written notice to the other party, whereupon the other party shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, name the second appraiser, and in case of failure to do so, the party who has already named an appraiser may have the second appraiser selected or appointed by a judge of the trial court of the county in which the Premises is located.  The two appraisers so appointed shall appoint a third appraiser, and if the two appraisers shall fail to appoint such third appraiser within ten (10) days after the naming of the second appraiser, cither party may have the third appraiser appointed by such judge, and the three appraisers so appointed shall thereupon proceed to make the determination required by this section.  The decision and award of any two appraisers shall be final, conclusive and binding upon both parties, unless such decision and award shall be vacated, modified or corrected, all as provided by in the arbitration statute (if any) of the state in which the Premises is located.  The appraisers shall notify the parties of their decision within thirty (30) days after initiation of the arbitration proceeding.

 

The appraisers shall have the MAI designation and a minimum of ten (10) years experience in the Salt Lake City market, and shall have all of the powers and duties prescribed by the laws of the state in which the Premises is located, and judgment may be entered upon any such decision and award as therein provided.  If, and whenever the fixing of ROFO Rent is under arbitration, Tenant, pending the determination thereof, shall continue to pay the same Base Rent per square foot for the ROFO Space that it is then paying for the Premises, and shall promptly pay the deficiency, if any upon the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings, if Base Rent paid by Tenant is more than the ROFO Rent.  Landlord shall reimburse or credit Tenant for such difference.  The cost of such arbitration shall be borne by the losing party, except attorneys’ fees and witness fees that shall be borne by the party engaging such attorney or witness.

 

6.                                      Patriot Act.  Tenant covenants that the use of the Premises will not violate (a) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or (b) any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department or any enabling legislation or order relating thereto.  Without limiting the foregoing, neither Tenant nor any guarantor (i) is, or will become a person described in the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign Assets Control or as described by Section 1 of Executive Order 13224 of September 24, 2001, Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, or Support Terrorism (3 1 CFR Part 595 et seq.) or (ii) to its knowledge, engages in any dealings or transactions, or is otherwise associated, with any such person.  Tenant covenants that Tenant is in compliance, in all material respects, with the USA Patriot Act, to the extent applicable.  Tenant will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from any claims, costs, expenses, demands, fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), penalties, and amounts related to Tenant’s violation of the provisions of this Section, or the failure of any of the provisions in this Section to be true or accurate at any time during the Term.  The indemnification provisions of this Section shall survive termination of the Lease for any reason.

 

7.                                      Certification.  As an essential inducement to Landlord to execute this Amendment.  Tenant hereby certifies and warrants to and agrees with Landlord that to Tenant’s knowledge (a) no event of default by Landlord under the Lease exists as of the dale of this Amendment, nor has any event occurred which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice,

 

3


 

or both, would constitute an event of default, (b) Landlord is not in any manner in default in the performance or observance of any obligation or duty owned to Tenant, under the Lease or otherwise, and (c) Tenant has no defenses, offsets, claims or counterclaims to the observance and performance by Tenant of any provision of the Lease.

 

8.                                      Full Force and Effect.  The provisions of the Lease are hereby amended to conform herewith, and in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Lease or this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control; but in all other respects, the provision of the Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

 

9.                                      Severability.  If for any reason any of the provisions of this Amendment shall be unenforceable or ineffective, all of the other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

 

10.                               Entire Agreement.  The provisions of this Amendment constitute, and are intended to constitute, the entire agreement of Landlord and Tenant regarding this Amendment.  No terms, conditions, warranties, promises or undertakings of any nature whatever, express or implied, exist between Landlord and Tenant except as expressly set forth in the Lease as amended by this Amendment.  Any amendment or modification of the Lease must be in writing and signed by both Landlord and Tenant.

 

11.                               Miscellaneous.  The section headings herein are for convenience of reference, and shall in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provisions of this Amendment.  This Amendment may be signed in counterparts and by facsimile signature.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have executed this Amendment as of the date above set forth.

THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE

 

THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of the 7th day of November, 2011, by and between WDCI, INC., a Hawaii corporation (“Landlord”) and CONTROL4 CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).

 

WITNESSETH

 

WHEREAS, Landlord is the landlord and Tenant is the tenant under that certain Industrial Lease dated June 29, 2004, as amended by First Amendment to Lease dated May 24, 2006, and Second Amendment to Lease dated February 25, 2011 (as amended, the “Lease”) demising Suites 3612 and 3614 in the Centennial Plaza complex, comprising approximately 35,000 square feet of space;

 

WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to extend the term of the Lease, set the rent for such extended term, and update various provisions of the Lease, all on the terms and conditions set forth below;

 

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant make this Amendment.  All terms capitalized and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them by the Lease.

 

AMENDMENT TO LEASE

 

1.                                      Lease Term.  The Lease Term is extended for sixty four (64) months, such that the new Expiration Date shall be March 31, 2017.

 

2.                                      Base Rent.  Base Rent for the extended portion of the Lease Term shall be as follows

3.                                      Option to Extend.  Provided that Tenant is not then in default under the Lease, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease Term for one additional period of either thirty-six (36) or sixty (60) months, as determined by Tenant pursuant to this Paragraph 3 (the “Extension Option”).

 

a.                                      The Extension Option is subject to the following conditions:

 

i.                                          Other than a Permitted Assignment as defined in Section 8.03 of the Lease, the rights contained in this Paragraph shall be personal to the originally named and

 

1


 

 

may be exercised only by the originally named Tenant (and not any other non permitted assignee, subtenant, or other non permitted transferee of Tenant’s interest in the Lease).

 

ii.                                       Tenant shall not be in default when it exercises its option or at the commencement of the Option Term (defined below), nor shall Tenant have been in material default under the Lease (regardless of whether such default was ultimately cured) more than three (3) times during the Lease Term.  Whether a default is material is in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, but shall include without limitation, failure to pay Rent when due.

 

iii.                                    If Tenant properly exercises the Extension Option and all conditions set forth in this Paragraph are satisfied, the term shall be extended for the Option Term.  Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option is irrevocable.

 

iv.                                   Tenant must exercise the Extension Option, if at all, only at the lime and in the manner provided in this Paragraph.

 

b.                                      Exercise of Extension Option:

 

i.                                          If Tenant wishes to exercise the Extension Option, Tenant shall deliver written notice (“Interest Notice”) to Landlord no less than six (6) months before the expiration of the initial Lease Term.  The Interest Notice shall state whether Tenant elects to exercise the Extension Option for a thirty-six (36) month term, or a sixty (60) month term, and whichever Tenant elects in the Interest Notice shall be the “Option Term.” Within sixty (60) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Interest Notice, Landlord shall deliver notice (“Option Rent Notice”) to Tenant stating the Base Rent for the Option Term (the “Option Rent”), based upon Landlord’s determination of fair market rental value of the Premises as of the commencement date of the Option Term.

 

ii.                                       If Tenant wishes to exercise the Extension Option, Tenant must, on or before the earlier of (1) the date occurring three (3) months prior to the commencement of the Option Term, or (2) the date occurring thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Option Rent Notice, exercise the Extension Option by delivering written notice (“Exercise Notice”) to Landlord.  If Tenant wishes to contest the Option Rent stated in the Option Rent Notice, Tenant must provide, with the Exercise Notice, written notice to Landlord that Tenant objects to the stated Option Rent and include Tenant’s determination of the fair market rental value of the Premises.  If Tenant provides such written objection and includes Tenant’s determination of fair market rental value, the Option Rent shall be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth below for determining fair market rental value.  Otherwise, the Option Rent shall be as set forth in the Option Rent Notice.  If Tenant fails to deliver a timely Interest Notice or Exercise Notice, Tenant shall be considered to have elected not to exercise the Extension Option.

 

iii.                                    If Tenant timely exercises its Extension Option, Landlord and Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after the Option Rent is determined, execute an amendment to the Lease extending the Term on the terms and conditions set forth in this Paragraph.  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Option Rent for the Option Term, the Option Rent shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises (at least commensurate with rents typical of other similar space in other comparable projects), including amenities offered, but in

 

2



 

no event shall the monthly Option Rent be less than the Base Rent for the immediately preceding month.  Determination of such fair market rental shall include consideration of any commercially-reasonable, industry-standard commissions payable, incentives, free rent, tenant improvement allowances, or any other incentives offered by a landlord to a new tenant, each of whom is willing, but neither of whom is compelled, to enter into a lease transaction.  If each party makes a timely determination of the fair market rental value, those determinations shall be submitted to an appraiser as provided herein.  Such appraisal shall commence as soon as practicable following the Exercise Notice.  If there is an appraisal, the determination of the appraiser(s) shall be limited to the sole issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted fair market rental value is the closest to the actual fair market rental value as determined by the appraisers in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Paragraph.  Such Option Rent shall be payable in advance on the first day of each month.  If the parties agree upon a single appraiser, such appraiser’s decision shall be final, conclusive and binding upon both parties, subject to the minimum limitations stated above.  If the parties fail to agree upon a single appraiser within ten (10) days of the Exercise Notice, there shall be an arbitration by three (3) appraisers, in which case either party shall name one of the appraisers by written notice to the other party, whereupon the other party shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, name a second appraiser, and in case of failure to do so, the party who has already named an appraiser may have the second appraiser selected or appointed by a judge of the trial court of the county in which the Premises is located; and the two appraisers so appointed, in either manner, shall select and appoint a third appraiser, and if the two appraisers so appointed shall fail to appoint the third appraiser within ten (10) days after the naming of the second appraiser, either party may have the third appraiser selected or appointed by such judge; and the three appraisers so appointed shall thereupon proceed to make the determination required by this Paragraph, and the decision and award of any two of them shall be final, conclusive and binding upon both parties, subject to the minimum limitations stated in this Paragraph, unless such decision and award shall be vacated, modified or corrected, all as provided by in the arbitration statute (if any) of the state in which the Premises is located.  The appraisers shall be recognized real estate appraisers who are members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (MAI) or Society of Real Estate Appraisers or any similar appraisal organization, shall have a minimum of 5 years experience in the Salt Lake City market, and shall have all of the powers and duties prescribed by the laws of the state in which the Premises is located, and judgment may be entered upon any such decision and award as therein provided,

 

iv.                                   In ascertaining the fair market rental value of the Premises, the appraisers shall assume for purposes of their appraisal that the Premises are available for immediate utilization to the greater of the use then being made of the Premises by Tenant or the then-highest and best use therefor.  Subject to the foregoing provisions, the process or method of appraisal shall be that receiving general acceptance among competent, experienced and recognized appraisers in the field of real estate valuation in the state in which the Premises is located.  If, and whenever the fixing of such fair market rental value is under arbitration, Tenant, pending the determination thereof, shall continue to pay the same Rent that it had been paying during the last preceding rental period and shall promptly pay the deficiency, if any, upon the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings.  If Tenant does not pay the deficiency within 10 days following the determination of fair market rental through arbitration, Tenant shall owe Landlord the deficiency plus interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum on the amount of such deficiency computed from the date or dates when the amount of such deficiency would have

 

3



 

been payable but for the pendency of the arbitration.  The cost of such arbitration shall be borne by the losing party, except attorneys’ fees and witness fees that shall be borne by the party engaging such attorney or witness.

 

4.                                      Tenant Improvements:  Landlord will provide Tenant with an improvement allowance in the maximum amount of $105,000.00 (the “Allowance”).  The Allowance shall be used by Tenant solely for improvements to the Premises as previously approved by Landlord in writing on the attached Exhibit A, including office space, a customer waiting area, and new lighting; but in no event may the Allowance be used for personal property, including but not limited to data cabling and wiring.  After completion of Tenant’s work and the expiration of the statutory period in which mechanics and materialmen can file liens or the furnishing of lien releases acceptable to Landlord from all contractors and suppliers, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of the construction contract, all bills and invoices and such other documentation as Landlord may reasonably require to evidence payment of the expenses incurred by Tenant for which Tenant seeks reimbursement of the Allowance.  Upon Landlord’s receipt of such items and verification of Tenant’s costs.  Landlord shall pay to Tenant the Allowance, reduced by any Landlord project management fee, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of all of such documentation and verification.  Landlord’s project management fee shall not exceed $750, provided Landlord has approved, in writing, all mechanical, electrical and plumbing contractors selected by Tenant for the Tenant Improvements.  Landlord reserves the right, but not the obligation, to charge a three percent (3%) project management fee on the total cost of the Tenant Improvements should Tenant use a contractors) that has not been approved by the Landlord.  Tenant must request reimbursement of the Allowance pursuant to this Paragraph 4 no later than December 31, 2012.  If Tenant does not timely make such request, then all of Tenant’s rights to such Allowance or any portion thereof shall automatically terminate and be null and void as of such date, and Tenant shall no longer be entitled to any portion or all of the Allowance.  In the event the costs of the approved improvements for which Tenant seeks reimbursement are less than the full amount of the Allowance, Landlord shall be obligated to reimburse Tenant only the actual amount of such costs, and Tenant shall not be entitled to payment or credit of any remaining balance.  In the event the costs of Tenant’s improvements to the Premises exceed the Allowance, Tenant and not Landlord shall be solely responsible for such excess amounts.  The provisions of this Paragraph 4 shall supersede any other improvement allowances, Landlord build-out obligations, and reimbursements previously set forth in the Lease, Landlord’s performance obligations having been satisfied with respect thereto.

 

5.                                      Landlord’s Work.  Landlord has agreed to make the following improvements to the Building:  (a) upgrade the Building’s fire alarm panel, including horns and strobes; (b) construct an ADA-accessible ramp at the Building entrance, if required by law; and (c) upgrade any Building amenities that do not currently comply with the building or fire code (“Landlord’s Work”).  In no event shall Landlord’s Work include any code compliance associated with Tenant’s specific use of the Premises or necessitated by Tenant’s improvements to the Premises, provided that if Tenant is unable to secure a permit or proceed with its improvements to the Premises because of any noncompliance with the building or fire code as of the date of this Amendment and not caused by Tenant, then Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall be responsible, at its own cost and expense, for promptly curing such noncompliance Landlord shall use “building standard” materials applicable to the Project.  Any

upgrades requested by Tenant of Landlord’s Work beyond “building standard” shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, chargeable to Tenant as additional rent.

 

In no event may Tenant interfere with the pace or performance of Landlord’s Work, or cause any delay to the construction schedule.  Additional costs to Landlord resulting from such interference and delay shall be payable by Tenant as additional rent.  The provisions of this Paragraph 5 shall supersede any other improvement allowances (except the Allowance described in Paragraph 4 of this Amendment), Landlord build-out obligations, and reimbursements previously set forth in the Lease, Landlord’s performance obligations having been satisfied with respect thereto.

 

Landlord shall be responsible for ensuring that the Common Areas comply with the requirements of Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12181, et seq., The Provisions Governing Public Accommodations and Services Operated by Private Entities), and all regulations promulgated thereunder, and all amendments, revisions or modifications thereto now or hereafter adopted or in effect in connection therewith, or any other similar Laws (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ADA”), and to take such actions and make such alterations and improvements as are necessary for such compliance.  The cost of such compliance shall be included in the Operating Expenses of the Project.

 

6.                                      Right of First Offer.  Landlord grants to Tenant a right of first offer (“ROFO”) to lease Suite 3610, totaling approximately 10,000 square feet (the “ROFO Space”), should it come available during the Lease Term.  The ROFO shall be subordinate and secondary to all rights of expansion, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, or similar rights granted to tenants under any existing tenant space leases within the Building and existing as of the effective date of this Amendment.  The rights described in this Paragraph shall be known collectively as “Superior Rights.” Landlord shall give Tenant written notice when Landlord determines that the ROFO Space is available for lease (the “ROFO Notice”), as long as no Superior Right has been exercised or asserted.

 

The ROFO Notice shall state the estimated date that Landlord then-anticipates the ROFO Space will be available for delivery to Tenant.  All other terms and conditions for leasing the ROFO Space shall be as set forth in the Lease, including the Base Rent rate per square foot, Common Expenses, and remaining Lease Term, and a tenant improvement allowance of $3.00 per square foot prorated by the number of months left in the Term upon rent commencement of the ROFO Space divided by 64, but excluding any tenant improvements by Landlord and other tenant inducements similar thereto.  If Tenant wishes to exercise the ROFO, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord written notice (“Exercise Notice”), which shall be irrevocable, fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the ROFO Notice, Tenant must elect to exercise the ROFO, if at all, only with respect to all of the ROFO Space, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion of such space.  If Tenant fails to timely deliver the Exercise Notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its ROFO and Landlord shall thereafter be free to lease the ROFO Space to any third party.

 

If Tenant timely delivers the Exercise Notice, (a) Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease to incorporate the ROFO Space, and to set Base Rent and Tenant’s new proportionate share of Common Expenses, as well as any other matters that depend

 

5



 

for their calculation on the area of the Premises; and (b) Landlord, at its sole expense, will either remove the demising wall between the Premises and the ROFO Space, or provide openings in the demising wall between the Premises and the ROFO Space to facilitate Tenant’s use of the combined premises.  The ROFO described in this Paragraph 6 supersedes and replaces any rights of first offer, rights of first refusal, and similar rights set forth in the Lease prior to this Amendment.

 

7.                                      Hazardous Materials.  Section 20 of the Lease entitled “Hazardous Materials” is hereby deleted and replaced by the following:

 

20.                               HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.

 

a.                                      Use, Storage, Handling and Disposal of Hazardous Materials.  Except as explicitly provided in this Lease, Tenant shall not cause any Hazardous Materials (as such term is defined below) to be used, generated, stored, transported, handled or disposed of in, on, under, or about the Premises or the Project at any time (such activities are hereinafter referred to as “Environmental Activities”).  Tenant further agrees that (i) Tenant will not engage in any activity on the Premises that will produce any Hazardous Materials; (ii) Tenant will not install any underground tanks of any type; (iii) Tenant will not use any portion of the Premises as a landfill or a dump; and (iv) Tenant will not cause any surface or subsurface conditions to exist or come into existence that constitute, or with the passage of time may constitute, a public or private nuisance.  Tenant shall be responsible for assuring compliance by such persons with the foregoing prohibition, which shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease and extend to Tenant, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, and invitees, and any assignees claiming by, through, or under Tenant, any subtenants claiming by, through, or under Tenant (“Tenant Party”), and Tenant’s failure to abide by the terms of this Section shall be restrainable by injunction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Tenant’s covenant to strictly comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws (as such term is defined below) and all other terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant may bring upon, keep and use general office and cleaning supplies typically used in the ordinary course of business of an office, such as copier toner, liquid paper, glue, ink, and cleaning solvents, for use in the manner for which they were designed.  From time to time during the Term, Tenant may request Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s use of other Hazardous Materials, which approval may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion.

 

b.                                      Compliance with Laws.  Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall comply and shall cause all Tenant Parties to comply, with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations and all rules, licenses, permits, orders, decrees and judgments relating to the environment and/or Environmental Activities (collectively referred to as “Hazardous Materials Laws”) conducted on the Premises.  Tenant’s willful breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Section shall constitute a material event of default under the Lease.  The obligations of Tenant under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease without any limitation, and shall constitute obligations that are independent and severable from Tenant’s covenants and obligations to pay rent under this Lease.

 

6



 

c.                                       Exculpation of Landlord.  Other tenants of the Project may be using, handling, or storing certain Hazardous Materials in connection with such tenants’ use of their premises.  The failure of another tenant to comply with applicable laws and procedures could result in a release of Hazardous Materials and contamination to improvements within the Project or the soil and groundwater thereunder.  In the event of such release, the tenant responsible for the release, and not Landlord, shall be solely responsible for any claim, damage, or expense incurred by Tenant by reason of such contamination.  Tenant waives any rights it may have to later assert that the foregoing release does not cover unknown claims.

 

d.                                      Disclosure and Notification.  Tenant shall promptly complete and return to Landlord all environmental questionnaires and hazardous materials disclosures submitted by Landlord to Tenant from time to time.  In addition, on January 1 of each calendar year during the Term (each such date being hereafter referred to as a “Disclosure Date”), Tenant shall complete and deliver to Landlord the form attached hereto as Exhibit E and shall disclose to Landlord the names and amounts of all Hazardous Materials other than general office and cleaning items and other supplies referred to in Subsection (a) above that were used, generated, treated, handled, stored or disposed of at the Premises or that Tenant intends to use, generate, treat, handle, store or dispose of at the Premises, for the year prior to and after such Disclosure Date.  The foregoing in no way shall limit the necessity of Tenant obtaining Landlord’s consent pursuant to Subsection (a) above.

 

At any time Tenant becomes aware of any violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws or of any claim made pursuant to any Hazardous Materials Laws that has occurred or that Tenant reasonably believes may have occurred with respect to the Premises or the Project, Tenant shall immediately (but in no event later than five (5) business days) advise Landlord in writing and provide Landlord with a copy of any notices, correspondence, and other materials relating to (i) any violation or potential or alleged violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws that are received by Tenant from any governmental agency concerned with Tenant’s or any other Tenant Party’s Environmental Activities; (ii) any and all inquiry, investigation, enforcement, clean-up, removal or other governmental or regulatory actions instituted or threatened relating to Tenant, the Premises, or the Project; (iii) all claims made or threatened by any third party against Tenant, the Premises, or the Project relating to any Hazardous Materials; and (iv) any release of Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises or the Project that Tenant knows of or reasonably believes may have occurred.

 

e.                                       Inspection of Premises.  Tenant shall permit Landlord and Landlord’s agents, servants, and employees, including but not limited to legal counsel and environmental consultants and engineers, access to the Premises for the purposes of environmental inspections and sampling during normal business hours, or during other hours either by agreement of the parties or in the event of any environmental emergency.  Tenant shall not restrict access to any part of the Premises, and Tenant shall not impose any conditions to access.  From time to time, Landlord may retain a registered environmental consultant (the “Consultant”) to conduct an investigation of the Premises (“Environmental Assessment”) (i) for Hazardous Materials contamination in, about, or beneath the Premises and (ii)to assess all Environmental Activities at the Premises for

 

7



 

compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations and for the use of procedures intended to reasonably reduce the risk of a release of Hazardous Materials.  Tenant covenants to reasonably cooperate with the Consultant and to allow entry and reasonable access to all portions of the Premises for the purpose of Consultant’s investigation.

 

f.                                        Indemnification of Landlord.  Tenant shall indemnify, defend (with counsel satisfactory to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord, its affiliates, partners, directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents, assigns and any successors to Landlord’s interest in the Project, from and against any and all foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages or loss (including without limitation, any loss in fair market value, damages for the loss or restriction on use and damages arising from any adverse impact on marketing of the Premises or the Project, and sums paid in settlement of all claims), cost, damage, expense (including reasonable attorneys5 fees and litigation costs, consultant fees and expert fees), claim, cause of action, demand, obligation, judgment, penalty, fine or liability directly attributable to and arising from (i) any Environmental Activity undertaken by Tenant or any other Tenant Party at the Premises, (ii) any remedial or clean-up work undertaken by or for Tenant in connection with Tenant’s or any other Tenant Party’s Environmental Activities or its compliance with Hazardous Materials Laws, or (iii) the breach by Tenant of any of its obligations and covenants set forth in this Section.  Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to join and participate in, and control, if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with Tenant’s or any other Tenant Party’s Environmental Activities.  Landlord may also negotiate, defend, approve and appeal any action taken or issued by any applicable governmental authority with regard to contamination of the Premises or the Project by a Hazardous Material.  Tenant shall reimburse any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord for which Tenant is responsible under this Section or for which Tenant has indemnified Landlord on demand as additional rent.  At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall promptly provide to Landlord evidence of insurance or financial resources available to satisfy the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, including the obligations under this Section.

 

g.                                       Remediation.  If any Environmental Activities undertaken by Tenant or any other Tenant Party result in contamination of the Premises or any other portion of the Project or the soil or ground water thereunder, subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and any conditions imposed by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly take all actions, at its sole expense and without abatement of rent, as are necessary to return the affected portion to the condition existing prior to the introduction of the contaminating Hazardous Material.  Landlord shall also have the right to approve any and all contractors hired by Tenant to perform such remedial work.  All such remedial work shall be performed in compliance with all applicable Hazardous Materials Laws and in such a manner as to minimize any interference with the use and enjoyment of the Project.  Appearance of a Hazardous Material caused by Tenant in or about the Premises or the Project shall not be deemed an occurrence of damage or destruction that is subject to the terms of the Lease respecting damage or destruction.

h.                                      Surrender of Premises.  Prior to or after the expiration or termination of the Term and prior to surrendering possession of the Premises, Tenant shall cause all Hazardous Materials previously owned, stored or used by Tenant to be removed from the Premises and disposed of in accordance with applicable provisions of Hazardous Materials Laws.  Landlord may have an Environmental Assessment of the Premises performed in accordance with Subsection (e) above.  Tenant shall perform, at its sole cost and expense, any clean-up or remedial work recommended by the Consultant that is necessary to remove, mitigate, or remediate any Hazardous Materials contamination of the Premises or the Project in connection with Tenant’s or any other Tenant Party’s or their agent’s Environmental Activities.
