For example:
(a) if such Interruption of Landlords Service continues for one (1) minute, one (1) days Rent shall be abated;
(b) if such Interruption of Landlords Service continues for a consecutive period of sixty (60) minutes, one (1) additional days Rent shall be abated;
(c) if such Interruption of Landlords Service continues for a consecutive period of one-hundred twenty (120) minutes, one (1) additional days Rent shall be abated; and
(d) if such Interruption of Landlords Service continues for a consecutive period of twenty-four (24) hours and one minute (and for each period of twenty-four (24) hours thereafter during which such Interruption of Landlords Service continues whether such Interruption of Landlords Service is continuous, or whether there are brief periods of service followed by further interruptions related to the same initial root cause (i.e., a specific PDU has become inoperable, or a specific CRAC unit has become inoperable) [all such subsequent Interruption of Landlords Service are deemed to be the Same Interruption]), one (1) additional days Rent shall be abated for each of the first (1st) three (3) hours of each successive twenty- |
-v-
four (24) hour period of the Same Interruption.

(b) furnishing Landlord with such insurance as Landlord may reasonably require against liabilities which may arise out of such entry; provided that, in no event shall such insurance requirements exceed those that are described on Exhibit B, attached hereto.
Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, the Early Access Period may be reduced by Landlord to the extent such Early Access materially interferes with Landlords ability to complete the Commencement Date Conditions on or before the Target Commencement Date. Additionally, Tenant agrees that, while Tenant shall not be required to pay Base Rent during the Early Access Period, Tenant shall be required to pay any and all electricity charges that accrue to the Premises during the Early Access Period. Tenants Early Access right is subject to Tenant executing and delivering to Landlord a Memorandum of Understanding in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E-2.
2.3 Extension Option.
2.3.1 Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3, Tenant shall have the number of options (each, an Extension Option) specified in Item 6 of the Basic Lease Information to extend the Term of this Lease with respect to the entire Tenant Space, each for an
-2-
additional term of forty-eight (48) calendar months (collectively the Extension Terms, each an Extension Term), upon the same terms, conditions and provisions applicable to the then current Term of this Lease (except as provided otherwise herein). The Base Rent payable with respect to the Tenant Space for each year of the Extension Term (the Option Rent) shall be increased hereunder as of the first (1st) day of each such year to be equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the Base Rent payable for the immediately preceding year of the Term of the Lease, as extended.
2.3.2 Tenant may exercise each Extension Option only by delivering to Landlord a written notice (an Option Exercise Notice) at least nine (9) calendar months (and not more than twelve (12) calendar months) prior to then applicable expiration date of the Term, which Option Exercise Notice shall specify that Tenant is irrevocably exercising its Extension Option so as to extend the Term of this Lease by an Extension Term on the terms set forth in this Section 2.3. In the event that Tenant shall duly exercise an Extension Option, the Term shall be extended to include the applicable Extension Term (and all references to the Term in this Lease shall be deemed to refer to the Term specified in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Information, plus all duly exercised Extension Terms). In the event that Tenant shall fail to deliver an Option Exercise Notice within the applicable time period specified herein for the delivery thereof, time being of the essence, at the election of Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to have forever waived and relinquished such Extension Option, and any other options or rights to renew or extend the Term effective after the then applicable expiration date of the Term shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect.
2.3.3 Tenant shall have the right to exercise any Extension Option only with respect to the entire Tenant Space leased by Tenant at the time that Tenant delivers an Option Exercise Notice. If Tenant duly exercises an Extension Option, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment reflecting such exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any attempted exercise by Tenant of an Extension Option shall, at the election of Landlord, be invalid, ineffective, and of no force or effect if, on the date on which Tenant delivers an Option Exercise Notice or on the date on which the Option Term is scheduled to commence there shall be an uncured Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease
3. BASE RENT AND OTHER CHARGES.
3.1 Base Rent. Commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord base rent (the Base Rent) for the Tenant Space in the amount set forth in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Information. All such Base Rent shall be paid to Landlord in equal monthly installments in advance on the first day of each and every month throughout the Term of this Lease; provided, however, that (a) the first full monthly installment of Base Rent shall be payable upon Tenants execution of this Lease and (b) if the Term of this Lease does not commence on the first day of a calendar month, the Base Rent for such partial calendar month shall (i) be calculated on a per diem basis determined by dividing the Base Rent above by the actual number of days in such month and multiplying such amount by the number of days remaining in such calendar month from and after (and including) the Commencement Date, and (ii) shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on the Commencement Date. Except as set forth in this Section 3.1, Tenant shall not pay any installment of Rent (defined in Section 3.3, below) more than one (1) month in advance.
3.2 Installation Fee/Other Charges. In addition to paying the Base Rent, within thirty (30) days after Tenants receipt of an invoice therefor from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent the one-time installation fee and any other charges specified in Item 10 of the Basic Lease Information as partial consideration for the fixturization of the Datacenter as set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto and Landlords costs in connection with this Lease and Tenants commencement of operations within the Tenant Space
3.3 Payments Generally. Base Rent, all forms of Additional Rent (defined in this Section 3.3, below) payable hereunder by Tenant and all other amounts, fees, payments or charges payable hereunder by Tenant shall (i) each constitute rent payable hereunder (and shall sometimes collectively be referred to herein as Rent), (ii) be payable to Landlord when due without any prior notice or demand therefor (except as provided herein) in lawful money of the United States without any abatement, offset or
-3-
deduction whatsoever (except as specifically provided otherwise herein), and (iii) be payable to Landlord at the address of Landlord specified in Item 17 of the Basic Lease Information (or to such other person or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant. No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease, the service of any notice, the commencement of any suit, or a final judgment for possession shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand, suit or judgment. No partial payment by Tenant shall be deemed to be other than on account of the full amount otherwise due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord shall be entitled to accept such payment without compromise or prejudice to any of the rights of Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws (defined in Section 6.3.1, below). In the event that the Commencement Date or the Expiration Date (or the date of any earlier termination of this Lease) falls on a date other than the first or last day of a calendar month, respectively, the Rent payable for such partial calendar month shall be prorated based on a per diem basis. For purposes of this Lease, all amounts (other than Base Rent) payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, whether or not denominated as such, shall constitute Additional Rent. All Rent payable hereunder, except for Base Rent and except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, shall be payable in arrears within thirty (30) day of invoice by Landlord.
3.4 Late Payments. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Base Rent or Additional Rent (or any other sums due hereunder) will cause Landlord to incur administrative costs not contemplated under this Lease and other damages, the exact amount of which would be extremely difficult or impractical to fix. Landlord and Tenant agree that if Landlord does not receive any such payment on or before the date that is five (5) days after the date on which such payment is due (a Late Charge Delinquency), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, (i) a late charge (Late Charge) equal to five percent (5%) of the amount overdue to cover such additional administrative costs and damages, and (ii) interest on all such delinquent amounts at an interest rate (the Default Rate) equal to the lesser of (a) one and one-half percent (1 1/2 %) per month or (b) the maximum lawful rate from the date such amounts are first delinquent until the date the same are paid. In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under this Article 3 or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent the same are considered to be interest under applicable law, exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest. Landlords acceptance of any Late Charge, or interest pursuant to this Section 3.4, shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of Tenants default with respect to the overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord agrees to waive the default interest and late charges for one (1) late payment hereunder during any consecutive twelve (12) calendar month period during the Term provided such late payment is paid in full within five (5) business days after written notice to Tenant of such failure.
3.5 Electrical Power. Tenant shall pay for all electricity provided to and/or used in the Tenant Space, as set forth herein. An electrical metering device (or electrical metering devices) (collectively, the Electrical Metering Equipment) compatible with Landlords energy management system for monitoring electricity provided to and/or used in the Tenant Space shall be installed by Tenant at Tenants cost. Landlord shall bill Tenant monthly for the actual cost of all electricity provided to and/or used in the Tenant Space based upon the Electrical Metering Equipment (the Actual Electrical Costs), plus a cost-recovery factor equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Actual Electrical Costs (the Shared Electrical Payment; together with the Actual Electrical Costs, collectively, the Power Payment). Tenant shall pay the Power Payment to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) days of delivery of such Power Payment invoice. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Shared Electrical Payment is intended to reimburse Landlord for electricity used by certain equipment within the Tenant Space and/or by equipment located outside the Tenant Space but serving the Tenant Space, which usage, in either case, is commercially impractical of being metered because it utilizes equipment and/or facilities designed to serve more area of the Building than just the Tenant Space (the Shared Electrical Equipment). For the avoidance of doubt, it is the intent of the parties that this Section 3.5 represents a mechanism only for Landlords cost recovery with regard to electrical power provided to and/or used in or for the Tenant Space, and that there is no intent for Tenants Power Payment to include any element of profit to the Landlord in connection therewith.

4. TAX ON TENANTS EQUIPMENT; OTHER TAXES.
4.1 Equipment Taxes. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay at least ten (10) days before delinquency (and Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from and against any Claims (defined in Section 14.2, below) arising out of, in connection with, or in any manner related to) all governmental fees, taxes, tariffs and other charges levied directly or indirectly against any personal property, fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems, connections, interconnections and appurtenances located in or used by Tenant in or in connection with the Tenant Space. If any such taxes for which Tenant is liable are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlords property, and if Landlord elects to pay the same, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, within ten (10) days of Landlords demand therefor, that part of such taxes for which Tenant is liable hereunder.
4.2 Additional Taxes. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent and within ten (10) days of Landlords demand therefor, and in such manner and at such times as Landlord shall direct from time to time by written notice to Tenant, any excise, sales, privilege, margin or other tax, assessment or other charge imposed, assessed or levied by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or agency upon Landlord on account of (i) the Rent (and other amounts) payable by Tenant hereunder (or any other benefit received by Landlord hereunder), including, without limitation, any gross receipts tax, license fee or excise tax levied by any governmental authority, (ii) this Lease, Landlords business as a lessor hereunder, and the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy of any portion of the Tenant Space (including, without limitation, any applicable possessory interest taxes), (iii) this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Tenant Space, or (iv) otherwise in respect of or as a result of the agreement or relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be responsible for the payment of any federal and state income taxes, franchise taxes, excess profits taxes gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, and other taxes applied or measured by Landlords general or net income (as opposed to taxes applied or measured by Landlords rents, receipts, or income attributable to operations at the Building and/or taxes that are commonly referred to as margin taxes or net profits taxes).
5. SECURITY DEPOSIT; LETTER OF CREDIT.
5.1 In the event that Tenant elects to deposit the amount specified in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Information as a security deposit (the Security Deposit), the provisions of this Section 5.1 shall apply to the Security Deposit. Landlord shall hold the Security Deposit as security for the performance by Tenant of Tenants covenants and obligations under this Lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Security Deposit shall not be considered an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Landlords damages in case of default by Tenant. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord without liability to Tenant for interest, and Landlord may commingle such deposit with any other funds held by Landlord. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (defined in Section 15.1 below), Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, apply the Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Base Rent, Additional Rent, and any other payment, damage, injury, expense or liability caused to Landlord by such Event of Default. Following any application of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to the amount thereof immediately prior to such application. Subject to the requirements of, and conditions imposed by, governmental laws, rules and regulations applicable to security deposits under commercial leases (the Applicable Security Deposit Laws), Landlord shall, within the time required by Applicable Security Deposit Laws, or if no such requirement, within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Term of this Lease (or the earlier termination of this Lease), return to Tenant the portion (if any) of the Security Deposit remaining after deducting all damages, charges and other amounts owing by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree that such deductions shall include, without limitation, all damages and losses that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any default under this Lease by Tenant. If Landlord transfers Landlords interest in the Tenant Space during the Term of this Lease (including any extension thereof), Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to the transferee, and upon such transfer and the delivery to Tenant of an acknowledgement of the
-5-
transferees responsibility for the Security Deposit, Landlord shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit. In the event the provisions of any Applicable Security Deposit Laws, or other provisions of Law, now or hereinafter in force, which restricts the amount or types of claims that a landlord may make upon a security deposit or imposes upon a landlord (or its successors) any obligation with respect to the handling or return of security deposits, conflict with the terms and conditions of this Section 5, the terms and conditions of this Section 5 shall govern.
6. USE.
6.1 Permitted Use. Subject to the terms of this Lease, including, specifically, Sections 1.3 and 6.3.1, Tenant shall be entitled to use the Tenant Space only for the placement, maintenance and operation of computer, switch and/or communications equipment, fixtures, machinery, apparatus, systems, connections, interconnections, appurtenances and the like (in accordance with the terms of this Lease, including, specifically, Sections 8.4 and 13.1) (the Permitted Use). Any other use of the Tenant Space is subject to Landlords prior written consent, which consent may be withheld or conditioned in Landlords sole and absolute discretion. Additionally, and not withstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.1, Tenant may not operate a Meet-Me Room in the Tenant Space or any other portion of the Building, provide MMR Services (as defined below) in the Tenant Space or any other portion of the Building, or refer to the Tenant Space as a Meet-Me Room. As used herein MMR Services means the services typically provided by companies in the primary business of providing carrier-neutral interconnections, such as the Switch & Data, Equinix, CRG West and Telehouse, including without limitation, furnishing of space, racks and pathway to parties for the purpose of such partys placement and maintenance of computer, switch and/or communications equipment and connections with the communications cable and facilities of other parties in the Building.
6.2 Datacenter Rules and Regulations. Tenants Permitted Use shall be subject to, and Tenant, and Tenants agents, employees and invitees shall comply fully with all requirements of the Datacenter Rules and Regulations. Landlord shall at all times have the right to change such rules and regulations or to amend or supplement them in such manner as may be deemed (by Landlord in the exercise of its sole but good faith discretion) advisable for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Tenant Space, the Datacenter, the Building and the Property and for preservation of good order therein, all of which Datacenter Rules and Regulations, as changed, amended, and/or supplemented from time to time, shall be fully carried out and strictly observed by Tenant; provided, however, that such changes to the Datacenter Rules and Regulations may not increase Tenants monetary obligations under this Lease or unreasonably interfere with access to or the beneficial use of the Tenant Space for the Permitted Use. In the event of a conflict between the Datacenter Rules and Regulations and the terms of this Lease, the terms of this Lease shall govern. Tenant shall further be responsible for the compliance with such Datacenter Rules and Regulations (as the same may be changed, amended and/or supplemented from time to time) by the employees, agents and invitees of Tenant. Landlord shall apply the Datacenter Rules and Regulations in a non-discriminatory manner and uniformly to the tenants of the Datacenter.

No interruption or malfunction of any electrical or other service (including, without limitation, heating ventilation and air conditioning HVAC) to the Tenant Space (or to any other portion of the Building or Property) shall, in any event, (i) constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenants use and possession of the Tenant Space, (ii) constitute a breach by Landlord of any of Landlords obligations under this Lease, (iii) render Landlord liable for damages of any type or entitle Tenant to be relieved from any of Tenants obligations under this Lease (including the obligation to pay Base Rent, Additional Rent, or other charges), (iv) grant Tenant any right of setoff or recoupment, (v) provide Tenant with any right to terminate this Lease, or (vi) make Landlord liable for any injury to or interference with Tenants business or any punitive, incidental or consequential damages (of any type), whether foreseeable or not, whether arising from or relating to the making of or failure to make any repairs, alterations or improvements, or whether arising from or related to the provision of or failure to provide for or to restore any service in or to any portion of the Property, the Building or the Datacenter.

In the event of Tenants Chronic Outage termination, Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant shall be permitted to continue its tenancy of the Tenant Space for one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Landlords receipt of Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Notice (such period of Tenants post-Chronic Outage termination tenancy is referred to herein as Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Period); provided, however, that, (a) during Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Period, all of the terms of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect (including the default and remedy provisions contained herein), and (b) Tenant shall have the right to terminate Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Period, prior to the one hundred eightieth (180th) day thereof, by providing ninety (90) days written notice of such early termination to Landlord (Tenants 2nd Chronic Outage Termination Notice), in which case Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Period shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (i) the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after the date of Landlords receipt of Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Notice; and (ii) the ninetieth (90th) day after the date of Landlords receipt of Tenants 2nd Chronic Outage Termination Notice. Tenants failure to timely deliver Tenants Chronic Outage Termination Notice shall automatically extinguish Tenants right to terminate this Lease with respect to that particular Chronic Outage. As used herein the term Chronic Outage means that
-9-
three (3) or more times within a twelve (12) consecutive month period, there occurs an Interruption of Landlords Services, each occurrence of which continues for twelve (12) or more consecutive hours, regardless of whether or not such Interruption of Landlords Services was caused by Force Majeure.
7.3.4 In addition to Tenants right to abatement of Base Rent, in the event a Continuous Outage (as hereinafter defined) occurs, Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering to Landlord within five (5) business days following the occurrence of the Continuous Outage, written notice (Tenants Continuous Outage Termination Notice) of such termination.

Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) maintain battery capacity in the UPS plant for Tenant UPS power and the DC plant for DC power (if any), as specified in Item 2 of Exhibit F, (ii) maintain Datacenter temperature within the range specified in Item 4(a) of Exhibit F, (iii) maintain Datacenter relative humidity within the range specified in Item 4(b) of Exhibit F, and (iv) maintain PDUs serving the Tenant Space. In the event of an interruption of electrical service to the Premises, Landlord shall reasonably promptly thereafter contract with a third party vendor to provide fuel to the fuel tanks of the Back-up Power systems for the duration of such interruption. The cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant if such interruption or failure was caused by any act or omission of Tenant or Tenants employees, agents, invitees or contractors.
8.2 Tenants Maintenance. During the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenants sole cost and expense, maintain the Tenant Space and Tenants equipment therein and in the Datacenter Connection Area, if any, in a clean and safe condition and in good order (and in at least as good order and clean condition as when Tenant took possession), ordinary wear and tear excepted. If Tenant fails to perform its covenants of maintenance and repair hereunder, or if Tenant or any of Tenants technicians or representatives physically damages the Property, the Building, the Datacenter, the Datacenter Connection Area, or any portion of any of the above, or the personal property of any other tenant or occupant, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, perform all necessary or appropriate maintenance and repair, and any
-10-
amounts expended by Landlord in connection therewith, plus an administrative charge of ten percent (10%), shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after Landlords demand therefor. Aside from Tenants equipment, if any, in the Datacenter Connection Area, Tenant shall have no obligation to maintain or repair the Datacenter Connection Area.
8.3 Alterations. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not make or cause to be made any alterations, additions, improvements or replacements to the Tenant Space, the Datacenter, or any other portion of the Building or Property (collectively, Alterations) without the prior written consent and approval of Landlord, which consent and approval may be withheld, conditioned or delayed in Landlords sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that Landlords consent shall not be required for any usual and customary installations, repairs, maintenance, and removals of equipment and telecommunication cables within the Tenant Space if and to the extent that such installations, repairs, maintenance, and removals (i) are usual and customary within the industry, (ii) are of a type and extent which are customarily permitted to be made without consent by landlords acting consistently with Institutional Owner Practices (defined below) leasing similar space for similar uses to similar tenants, (iii) are in compliance with the Datacenter Rules and Regulations, and (iv) will not affect the Buildings structure, the provision of services to other Building tenants, or the Buildings electrical, plumbing, HVAC, life safety or mechanical systems. For example, Landlords consent would be required for the installation of overhead ladder racks that are attached to the ceiling and Landlords consent would not be required for the installation of equipment which does not involve drilling into the floor or ceiling. For purposes hereof, Institutional Owner Practices shall mean practices that are consistent with the practices of the majority of the institutional owners of institutional grade, first-class datacenter or telecommunications projects in the United States of America. Additionally, Landlord and Tenant agree that, Landlord shall provided its consent (or objections) with regard to Tenants requests for Alterations consent within ten (10) business days after Landlords receipt of such request. In the event that Landlord has failed to provide its consent (or objections) within the prescribed ten (10) business day period, as applicable, Landlord will be deemed to have consented with regard to the applicable request for Alterations consent; provided that (i) such request for Alterations consent contains the phrase DATED MATERIAL ENCLOSED. RESPONSE IS REQUIRED WITHIN TEN BUSINESS DAYS AFTER LANDLORDS RECEIPT HEREOF, in all capital letters (no smaller than sixteen (16) point font) on the outside of the package in which such request for Alterations consent is provided to Landlord; (ii) such request for Alterations consent contains three (3) full sets of drawings (two full size hard copies, and one full set of drawings on CD); and (iii) in the event that Landlord has not responded within such ten (10) business day period, Tenant agrees to provide Landlord one (1) additional written notice (the 2nd Alterations Consent Notice) and one (1) additional business day following such 2nd Alterations Consent Notice in which to respond, prior to such deemed consent taking effect.
8.4 Removal of Cable, Wiring, Connecting Lines, Equipment and Personal Property. Tenant agrees that, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant (or, failing which, a contractor designated by Landlord) shall at Tenants sole cost and expense, promptly remove all of Tenants Personal Property (defined below), and shall restore those portions of the Building, the Datacenter and/or the Tenant Space damaged by such removal of (or by the initial installation of) such Tenants Personal Property to their condition immediately prior to the installation or placement of such items. If Tenant fails to promptly remove any such Tenants Personal Property pursuant to this Section 8.4, Landlord shall have the right to remove such Tenants Personal Property and to restore those portions of the Building, the Datacenter, and/or the Tenant Space damaged by such removal to their condition immediately prior to the installation or placement of such Tenants Personal Property, in which case Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlords demand therefor, for all of Landlords costs of removal and restoration plus an administrative fee equal to ten percent (10%) of such cost. For purposes hereof, Tenants Personal Property shall mean, collectively, all cable, wiring, connecting lines, and other installations, equipment or property installed or placed by or for on behalf of Tenant anywhere in the Building, the Datacenter, and/or the Tenant Space.
9. CASUALTY; EMINENT DOMAIN; INSURANCE.
-11-
9.1 Casualty; Eminent Domain.
9.1.1 If at any time during the Term of this Lease, a material portion of the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space shall be (i) damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty (a Casualty), or (ii) taken under the power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or sold to prevent the exercise thereof (a Taking), so that, in either case, the use of the Tenant Space is materially impaired, then Landlord shall have the right to elect, in Landlords sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) terminate this Lease by delivery of written notice (a Termination Notice) thereof to Tenant or (b) to continue this Lease, in which case, Landlord shall repair and reconstruct the Tenant Space and the Datacenter to substantially the same condition in which they existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no right to terminate the Lease due to Casualty or Taking unless it also terminates the Leases of all other tenants of the Building similarly affected by the Casualty or Taking. If as a result of the Casualty, the Tenant Space is unfit for use by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business and actually is not used by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business (which, for the avoidance of doubt, and for the purposes of this Lease, means the operation of Tenants business in the affected portion of the Tenant Space is adversely impacted), then Landlord shall provide written notice (the Restoration Notice) to Tenant as soon as practicable after the Casualty of the period of time (the Stated Restoration Period) which shall be required for the repair and restoration of the Building to permit use of the Tenant Space in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business and Tenant shall have the right, at its election, to terminate this Lease if either (i) the Stated Restoration Period shall be in excess of ninety (90) days following the Casualty and Tenant terminates this Lease with written notice thereof to Landlord within ten (10) days following delivery of the Restoration Notice, or (ii) Landlord shall fail within the Stated Restoration Period to complete the repair and restoration of the Building necessary to allow Tenants use of the Tenant Space in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business and Tenant delivers written notice of such termination to Landlord within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the restoration deadline.
9.1.2 Base Rent Abatement. In the event that this Lease is terminated as herein permitted, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid Base Rent less any sum then owing Landlord by Tenant. Landlord shall not be obligated to carry insurance on Tenants personal property within the Tenant Space. If this Lease is not terminated in pursuant to Section 9.1.1 above, Base Rent shall abate proportionately during the period and to the extent that the Tenant Space is unfit for use by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business and actually is not used by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenants business, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and such repairs shall be made within the time periods set forth in Section 9.1.1 above, subject to delay caused by Force Majeure.
9.1.3 Tenants Remedy. Tenants termination right and Base Rent abatement, to the extent provided above in this Article 9, shall be Tenants sole remedies in the event of a Casualty or Taking, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages for loss of, or interference with, Tenants business or use or access of all or any part of the Tenant Space resulting from any such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any Casualty is caused by any negligent act or omission or act of willful misconduct of Tenant or any Tenant Party, Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease under Section 9.1.1 and there shall be no abatement of any Base Rent (or any other Rent or other amounts) due hereunder.
9.1.4 Waiver. Landlord and Tenant agree that the provisions of this Article 9 and the remaining provisions of this Lease shall exclusively govern the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any portion of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property, and/or any Taking thereof, and each Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and release each and all of their respective common law and statutory rights inconsistent herewith, whether now or hereinafter in effect.
9.2 Tenants Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenants expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance in accordance with the terms and requirements set forth in Exhibit B to this Lease. Tenant hereby waives its rights against the Landlord Group (defined in
-12-
Item 24 of the Basic Lease Information) with respect to any claims or damages or losses (including any claims for bodily injury to persons and/or damage to property) which are caused by or result from (i) risks insured against under any insurance policy carried by Tenant at the time of such claim, damage, loss or injury, or (ii) risks which would have been covered under any insurance required to be obtained and maintained by Tenant under this Lease had such insurance been obtained and maintained as required; provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant be deemed to have waived its right against Landlord with respect to any claims or damages or losses (including any claims for bodily injury to persons and/or damage to property) which are caused by or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any member of the Landlord Group. The foregoing waivers shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, any other waivers or releases contained in this Lease and shall survive expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. All of Tenants insurance policies shall be endorsed so as to include a waiver of subrogation with and to the full extent of Tenants waiver of claims above.
9.3 Landlords Insurance. Landlord shall, at Landlords expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance insuring the Building and the Property and all of Landlords equipment and fixtures installed therein against loss due to fire and other casualties included in standard extended coverage insurance policies, in an amount equal to the replacement cost thereof. Landlord shall also maintain such insurance as is customarily carried by reasonably prudent landlords of datacenters in the city in which the Property is located. All insurance required under this Lease shall be issued by insurers with a General Policyholders Rating of at least A-, VIII, as set forth in Bests Insurance Guide. Such insurers shall be authorized to do business in the state in which the Property is located. Landlord hereby waives its rights against Tenant with respect to any claims or damages or losses (including any claims for bodily injury to persons and/or damage to property) which are caused by or result from (i) risks insured against under any insurance policy carried by Landlord at the time of such claim, damage, loss or injury, or (ii) risks which would have been covered under any insurance required to be obtained and maintained by Landlord under this Lease had such insurance been obtained and maintained as required; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be deemed to have waived its rights against Tenant with respect to any claims or damages or losses (including any claims for bodily injury to persons and/or damage to property) which are caused by or result from the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant and/or the Tenant Parties, as defined in Section 14.2 below. The foregoing waivers shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, any other waivers or releases contained in this Lease. All of Landlords insurance policies shall be endorsed so as to include a waiver of subrogation with and to the full extent of Landlords waiver of claims above.
10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
10.1 Restrictions on Transfers; Landlords Consent. Tenant shall not sublease all or any part of the Tenant Space, nor assign this Lease, nor enter any other agreement (a) permitting a third party (other than Tenant, Tenant Parties or Tenants occasional guests) to occupy or use any portion of the Tenant Space or (b) otherwise assigning, transferring, mortgaging, pledging, hypothecating, encumbering or permitting a lien to attach to its interest under this Lease (any such assignment, sublease or the like may sometimes be referred to herein as a Transfer and any person or entity to whom a Transfer is made or sought to be made is referred to herein as a Transferee), without Landlords express prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No Transfer (whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) shall be valid or effective without Landlords prior written consent and, at Landlords election, any Transfer or attempted Transfer shall constitute an Event of Default of this Lease. Except as set forth in Section 10.5, below, Tenant expressly covenants and agrees not to enter into (and acknowledges and agrees that it has no right to enter into) any Transfer which expressly, implicitly, or effectively amounts to or is the equivalent of a sublease or other arrangement which creates a co-location between Tenant and any Transferee (any such Transfer a Sub-Co-location Arrangement) without the prior written consent of Landlord which, in such circumstances, may be granted or withheld by Landlord for any reason or for no reason in the exercise of Landlords sole and absolute discretion (and Tenant agrees that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Transfer which would amount to or create the equivalent of a Sub-Co-location Arrangement).
-13-
10.1.1 Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord (and without being subject to Landlords rights under Section 10.3, below) (a) undertake the transfer or assignment of interests in Tenant, including, without limitation, the transfer of any or all of the outstanding voting or non-voting stock or the issuance of new shares of voting or non-voting stock of Tenant which shall not be deemed an assignment of this Lease provided such action is taken pursuant to a bona fide business transaction and not principally or exclusively as a means to evade the consent requirements under this Lease and further provided that the credit of the Tenant under this Lease after such acquisition is deemed to be sufficient in Landlords sole reasonable determination; and/or (b) effect Affiliate Transfers (as defined below) (in either event, a Permitted Transfer). An Affiliate Transfer means (i) an assignment by Tenant of this Lease to a Tenant Affiliate (as defined below), or (ii) an assignment by Tenant of this Lease in connection with a corporate reorganization provided the board of directors of the entity resulting from such corporate reorganization is controlled by directors representing the interests of the undersigned Tenant as it existed prior to such reorganization, if (x) Tenant gives Landlord prior written notice of the name of any such assignee, (y) the assignee assumes, in writing, for the benefit of Landlord all of Tenants obligations under this Lease, and (z) (except in the case of an assignment to a Tenant Affiliate) the credit of the surviving or created entity is deemed to be sufficient in Landlords sole reasonable determination. The term Tenant Affiliate as used herein shall mean any partnership, limited liability company, or corporation or other entity, directly or indirectly, which through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant. The term control, as used in the immediately preceding sentence shall mean with respect to a corporation the right to exercise, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting rights attributable to the controlled corporation or the power to elect a majority of its Board of Directors.
10.2 Notice to Landlord. If Tenant desires to make any Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer, for which Tenant must notify Landlord within twenty (20) days after the occurrence of same), then at least ten (10) days (but no more than one hundred eighty (180) days) prior to the proposed effective date of the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written request (a Transfer Notice) for Landlords consent, which notice shall include: (i) a statement containing: (a) the name and address of the proposed Transferee; (b) current, certified financial statements of the proposed Transferee, and any other information and materials (including, without limitation, credit reports, business plans, operating history, bank and character references) reasonably required by Landlord to assist Landlord in reviewing the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee; (c) all of the principal terms of the proposed Transfer; and (d) such other information and materials as Landlord may reasonably request (and if Landlord requests such additional information or materials, the Transfer Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional information or materials) and (ii) four (4) originals of the proposed assignment or other Transfer on a form reasonably approved by Landlord and four (4) originals of the Landlords standard form of Assignment and Assumption of Lease and Consent or other Transfer documentation executed by Tenant and the proposed Transferee. If Tenant materially modifies any of the terms and conditions relevant to a proposed Transfer specified in the Transfer Notice, Tenant shall re-submit such Transfer Notice to Landlord for its consent pursuant to all of the terms and conditions of this Article 10.
10.3 Landlords Recapture Rights. Except with regard to a Permitted Transfer, at any time within twenty (20) business days after Landlords receipt of all (but not less than all) of the information and documents described in Section 10.2, Landlord shall have the right (but no obligation), exercisable by written notice to Tenant, to elect to cancel and terminate this Lease.
10.4 No Release; Subsequent Transfers. No Transfer (whether or not a Permitted Transfer) will release Tenant from Tenants obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. In no event shall the acceptance of any payment by Landlord from any other person be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent by Landlord to one Transfer will not be deemed consent to any subsequent Transfer. In the event of breach by any Transferee 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 Transferee or successor. The voluntary or other surrender of
-14-
this Lease by Tenant or a mutual termination thereof shall not work as a merger and shall, at the option of Landlord, either (i) terminate all and any existing agreements effecting a Transfer, or (ii) operate as an assignment to Landlord of Tenants interest under any or all such agreements
10.5 Colocation. Landlord acknowledges that the business to be conducted by the undersigned Tenant in the Premises requires the installation of certain equipment (described below) owned by customers or co-locators of the undersigned Tenant (Permitted Licensees) in (but not outside of) the Premises, in order for the Permitted Licensees to place and maintain computer, switch and/or communications equipment which may interconnect with Tenants facilities and/or the Permitted Licensees facilities (the Permitted Interconnection). To expedite the Permitted Licensees access to the Premises for the Permitted Interconnection, Landlord expressly agrees that Tenant may, without Landlords further consent, license portions of the Premises to the Permitted Licensees for the sole purpose of the Permitted Interconnection pursuant to written agreements by and between Tenant and the Permitted Licensees (collectively, Permitted Agreements); provided, however, that (a) Tenant provides a list of contact information for such Permitted Licensees in a format that Landlord may reasonably alter from time-to-time, and (b) each Permitted Licensees license of a portion of the Premises may not violate any terms of this Lease or any Applicable Laws. Landlord expressly waives any right to prior review of such Permitted Agreements. Tenants Permitted Agreements with the Permitted Licensees may not affect, or provide any rights with respect to or to use in any manner, the Additional Pathway as defined in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Information or Tenants interconnections. The Permitted Licensees shall comply with all Applicable Laws and the Datacenter Rules and Regulations. The Permitted Agreements and the Permitted Licensees rights thereunder shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the Lease and all of its provisions, covenants and conditions. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord and the Landlord Group from and against (and to reimburse Landlord and the Landlord Group) for any and all Claims (defined in Section 14.2, below) arising from or in any manner relating to (i) any Permitted Agreement, (ii) the use or occupancy of the Tenant Space or any other portion of the Building or the Property by any Permitted Licensee or any person claiming by, through or under any Permitted Licensee, its partners, and their respective officers, agents, servants or employees of Tenant or any such person (collectively, the Colocating Parties) pursuant to any Permitted Agreement, (ii) the acts or omissions of any Permitted Licensee or any Colocating Parties pursuant to any Permitted Agreement.
11. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE BY TENANT. At any time and from time to time, within ten (10) business days after written request by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying all matters reasonably requested by Landlord or any current or prospective purchaser, Holder (as defined in Section 12.1 below) of any Security Document (as defined in Section 12.1 below), ground lessor or master lessor. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it understands that any statement delivered (or to be delivered) pursuant to this Article 11 may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the Building or the Property or by any prospective mortgagee, ground lessor or other like encumbrancer thereof or any assignee of any such encumbrance upon the Building or the Property. Tenants failure to deliver the statement within the ten (10) business day period specified above shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant with respect to a third party that the Lease is in full force and effect without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured defaults in Landlords performance and that Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against any fees or other charges due Landlord hereunder, and that no more than one months fees or other charges due hereunder have been paid in advance.
12. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT; LENDER RIGHTS.
12.1 Subordination and Attornment. Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of Landlord or any mortgagee or beneficiary with a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Property or any portion thereof, or any lessor of a ground or underlying lease with respect to the Property or any portion thereof (any such mortgagee, beneficiary or lessor, a Holder), this Lease will be subject and subordinate at all times to: (i) all ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Property; (ii) the lien of any mortgage, deed or deed of trust which may now exist or hereafter be
-15-
executed affecting the Property or any portion thereof; (iii) all past and future advances made under any such mortgages, deeds or deeds of trust; and (iv) all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of any such ground leases, master leases, mortgages, deed and deeds of trust (collectively, Security Documents) which may now exist or hereafter be executed which constitute a lien upon or affect the Property or any portion thereof, or Landlords interest and estate in any of said items. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord reserves the right to subordinate any such Security Documents to this Lease. In the event of any termination or transfer of Landlords estate or interest in the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents (and notwithstanding any subordination of such Security Document to this Lease that may or may not have occurred), at the election of Landlords successor in interest, Tenant agrees to attorn to and become the tenant of such successor, in which event Tenants right to possession of the Property will not be disturbed as long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any right under any Applicable Law or otherwise to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any termination or transfer of Landlords estate or interest in the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, within ten (10) business days of receipt thereof, and in the form reasonably required by Landlord or in the standard form required by any Holder, any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease and Tenants agreement to attorn with respect to any such Security Document; provided, however, any such agreement subordinating this Lease to such lease, mortgage or deed of trust shall contain a nondisturbance provision in the standard form of such Holder.
12.2 Mortgagee and Ground Lessor Protection. Tenant agrees to give each Holder, by registered or certified mail, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has been notified in writing of the address of such Holder (hereafter, a Noticed Holder). Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then within such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced such cure within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then prior to Tenant pursuing any remedy for such default provided hereunder, at law or in equity, any Noticed Holder shall have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot reasonably be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if the Noticed Holder has commenced within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default).
12.3 SNDA. At any time that the Building is made subject to any Security Document(s), Landlord shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to cause the mortgagee and any lessor (whether under a ground or master lease) to deliver to Tenant a subordination, attornment and non-disturbance agreement reasonably acceptable to Tenant (the SNDA), providing that so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant may remain in possession of the Tenant Space under the terms of this Lease, even if the mortgagee or its successor should acquire Landlords title to the Building. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the subordination of this Lease to any Security Document now or hereafter placed upon the Building and Tenants agreement to attorn to the Holder as provided in this Section 12 shall be conditioned upon the Holder providing Tenant with a commercially reasonable SNDA.
13. SURRENDER OF TENANT SPACE; HOLDING OVER.
13.1 Tenants Method of Surrender. Upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 13 and Section 8.4, quit and surrender possession of the Tenant Space to Landlord in the same condition as received, reasonable wear and tear excepted. If Tenant fails to surrender the Tenant Space upon the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space in accordance with the terms of this Lease, then Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the Landlord Group harmless from, and shall
-16-
reimburse Landlord for its first-party losses, costs and expenses in connection with, all Claims (including, without limitation, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in returning the Tenant Space to the condition in which Tenant was to surrender and Claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from Tenants failure to surrender the Tenant Space) arising out of or in any manner relating to such failure to quit and surrender possession of the Tenant Space to Landlord in the condition required hereunder upon such date.
13.2 Disposal of Tenants Personal Property. If any property not belonging to Landlord remains in the Tenant Space after the expiration of or within thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of the Term of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space, Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned such property and to have authorized Landlord to make such disposition of such property as Landlord may desire without liability for compensation or damages to Tenant in the event that such property is the property of Tenant; and in the event that such property is the property of someone other than Tenant, Tenant shall indemnify and hold the Landlord Group harmless from all Claims arising out of, in connection with, or in any manner related to any removal, exercise or dominion over and/or disposition of such property by Landlord. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any lender of Tenants with whom Landlord has entered into an agreement regarding the disposal of personal property in situations where Landlord has breached its obligations under such agreement with such lender; in such cases, the terms of the agreement between Landlord and Tenants lender shall control.
13.3 Holding Over. If Tenant should remain in possession of all or any portion of the Tenant Space after the expiration of the Term of this Lease (or any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space), without the execution by Landlord and Tenant of a new lease or an extension of the Term of this Lease, then Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the entire Tenant Space as a tenant-at-sufferance, upon all of the terms contained herein, except as to term and Base Rent and any other provision reasonably determined by Landlord to be inapplicable. During any such holdover period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly Base Rent in an amount equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease. The monthly rent payable for such holdover period shall in no event be construed as a penalty or as liquidated damages for such retention of possession. Neither any provision hereof nor any acceptance by Landlord of any rent after any such expiration or earlier termination shall be deemed a consent to any holdover hereunder or result in a renewal of this Lease or an extension of the Term, or any waiver of any of Landlords rights or remedies with respect to such holdover. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, (a) Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Tenant Space upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon the earlier termination hereof or at any time during any holdover and the right to assert any remedy at law or in equity to evict Tenant and collect damages in connection with any such holdover, and (b) Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord Group harmless from and against any and all Claims (excluding all lost profits and other consequential damages), attorneys fees, consultants fees and court costs incurred or suffered by or asserted against Landlord arising out of or in any manner related to Tenants failure to surrender the Tenant Space upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or upon termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space in accordance with the provisions of this Lease.
13.4 Survival. The provisions of this Article 13 shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease.
14. WAIVER OF CLAIMS; INDEMNITY.
14.1 Waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby waives all claims it may have against the Landlord Group (as defined in the Basic Lease Information) for damage to or loss of property (including, without limitation, loss of profits and intangible property) or bodily injury or loss of life or other damages of any kind resulting from the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space or any part thereof becoming out of repair, by reason of any repair or alteration thereof, or resulting from any accident within the Property, the Building,
-17-
the Datacenter, the Datacenter Connection Area or the Tenant Space or on or about any space adjoining the same, or resulting directly or indirectly from any act or omission of any person, or due to any condition, design or defect of the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space, or any space adjoining the same, or the mechanical systems of the Building or the Datacenter, which may exist or occur, whether such damage, loss or injury results from conditions arising upon the Tenant Space, the Datacenter Connection Area or upon other portions of the Datacenter or the Building, or from other sources or places, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage, loss or injury or the means of repairing the same is accessible to Tenant; provided, however, that such assumption and waiver shall not apply to the extent such claims proximately caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any member of the Landlord Group. Tenant agrees that, except to the extent caused by Landlords gross negligence or will misconduct, Landlord will not have any responsibility or liability for any damage to Tenants equipment or interruption of Tenants operations which is caused by any other tenant or occupant of the Datacenter, the Building or the Property or the employees, agents, contractors, technicians, representatives, customers, co-locators or invitees of any such tenant or occupant.
14.2 Indemnification. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord and the Landlord Group (as such term is defined in the Basic Lease Information) from and against (and to reimburse Landlord and the Landlord Group) for any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, losses, damages (including, without limitation, any form of Tenant and/or third party consequential damages), obligations, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees, legal costs, and other costs and expenses of defending against any claims, actions, suits, or proceedings) (collectively, Claims) arising from, in connection with, or in any manner relating to (or alleged to arise from, to be in connection with, or to be in any manner related to): (i) the use or occupancy of the Tenant Space or any portion of the Datacenter Connection Area, the Datacenter, the Building or the Property by Tenant or any person claiming by, through or under Tenant, its partners, and their respective officers, agents, servants or employees of Tenant or any such person (collectively, Tenant Parties) (not arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees, agents, contractors or invitees), (ii) the negligence or willful omissions of Tenant or any Tenant Parties with respect to the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property, or (iii) any default of this Lease by Tenant. In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord or any member of the Landlord Group by reason of any such Claim, Tenant upon notice from Landlord shall defend such action or proceeding at Tenants cost and expense by counsel reasonably approved by Landlord. Tenants obligations under this Section 14.2 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease as to any matters arising prior to such expiration or termination or prior to Tenants vacation of the Tenant Space and the Building. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Section 14.2, nothing contained in this Section 14.2 shall be interpreted or used in any way to affect, limit, reduce or abrogate any insurance coverage provided by any insurer to either Tenant or Landlord. This indemnity provision shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease.
14.3 Consequential Damages. Under no circumstances whatsoever shall Landlord or Tenant be liable under this Lease for consequential damages or special damages. The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that, in no event, shall the elevated Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder in connection with Section 13.3 be deemed to represent any form of consequential damages or special damages.
14.4 Liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Tenant have any right (express or implied) to create or permit there to be established any lien or encumbrance of any nature against the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property or against Landlords or Tenants interest therein or hereunder, including, without limitation, for any improvement or improvements by Tenant, and Tenant shall fully pay the cost of any improvement or improvements made or contracted for by Tenant. Tenant shall require each contractor which it engages to perform any improvements or alterations within the Tenant Space or elsewhere in the Building or the Property, to acknowledge and agree in writing that it is performing its work under its agreement with Tenant solely for the benefit of Tenant and that Tenant is not acting as Landlords agent. Any mechanics lien filed against the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property, or any portion of any of the above, for work claimed to have been done, or materials claimed to
-18-
have been furnished to Tenant, shall be duly discharged or bonded by Tenant within ten (10) days after notice of the filing of the lien.
14.5 Waiver of Landlords Lien. Landlord hereby expressly waives and releases any and all contractual liens and security interests or constitutional and/or statutory liens and security interests arising by operation of law to which Landlord might now or hereafter be entitled on the property of Tenant which Tenant now or hereafter places in or upon the Premises (except for judgment liens that may arise in favor of Landlord). The waiver and release contained herein shall not waive, release or otherwise affect any unsecured claim Landlord may have against Tenant.
15. TENANT DEFAULT.
15.1 Events of Default By Tenant. Each of the following acts or omissions of Tenant or occurrences shall constitute an Event of Default:
15.1.1 Any failure or refusal by Tenant to timely pay any Rent or any other payments or charges required to be paid hereunder, or any portion thereof, within three (3) days of notice that the same is due.
15.1.2 Any failure by Tenant to perform or observe any other covenant or condition of this Lease (including, without limitation, in the Datacenter Rules and Regulations) to be performed or observed by Tenant (other than those described in Section 15.1.1, above or Sections 15.1.3, 15.1.4, or 15.1.5, below) if such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice to Tenant of such failure; provided, however, that in the event Tenants failure to perform or observe any covenant or condition of this Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days following written notice to Tenant, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences to cure same within ten (10) days after Tenants receipt of written notice thereof and thereafter diligently prosecutes the curing thereof to completion.
15.1.3 The filing or execution or occurrence of any one of the following: (i) a petition in bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding by or against Tenant, (ii) a petition or answer seeking relief under any provision of the Bankruptcy Act, (iii) an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iv) a petition or other proceeding by or against Tenant for the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or any of Tenants property, or (v) a proceeding by any governmental authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant or any other instance whereby Tenant or any general partner of Tenant shall cease doing business as a going concern, where such petition, assignment or proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after filing.
15.1.4 Any failure by Tenant to execute and deliver any statement or document described in either Article 11 or Section 12.1 requested to be so executed and delivered by Landlord within the time periods specified therein applicable thereto, where such failure continues for three (3) days after delivery of written notice of such failure by Landlord to Tenant.
The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all of the notice periods provided in this Section 15.1 are in lieu of, and not in addition to, the notice requirements of any Applicable Laws.
15.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the remedies described in Section 1 of Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, each and all of which shall, subject to applicable law, be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever (and all of the other provisions of Section 1 of Exhibit D shall apply to an Event of Default by Tenant hereunder).
16. LIMITATION OF LANDLORDS LIABILITY.
-19-
16.1 Landlord Default. In the event that Landlord shall fail to perform any obligation of Landlord to be performed under this Lease, Tenants sole and exclusive remedies for any such failure shall be an action for money damages, specific performance and/or injunctive relief (Tenant hereby waiving the benefit of any laws granting Tenant a lien upon the property of Landlord and/or upon rental due Landlord or granting Tenant a right to terminate this Lease upon a default by Landlord); provided, however, that Landlord shall not be in default hereunder (and Tenant shall have no right to pursue any such claim for damages in connection with any such failure) unless and until Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord a written notice specifying such default with particularity, and Landlord shall thereafter have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days (or, if the nature of Landlords obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its performance, then not unless Landlord shall have failed to commence such performance of such cure within ten (10) days after its receipt of notice thereof from Tenant and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion). In the event Landlords failure to perform an obligation of Landlord to be performed under this Lease materially adversely affects Tenants use of the Tenant Space for the Permitted Use, Landlord shall commence to cure such default within ten (10) business days following receipt of written notice from Tenant of such default, and in the event of an emergency, shall commence to cure such default within twenty-four (24) hours following receipt of written notice from Tenant of such default, and shall diligently pursue the curing thereof to completion. Unless and until Landlord shall have so failed to so cure any such failure after such notice, Tenant shall not have any remedy or cause of action by reason thereof. Except as expressly set forth in this Lease, in no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate the Lease nor shall Tenants obligation to pay Base Rent or other charges under this Lease abate based upon any default by Landlord of its obligations under the Lease.
16.2 Landlords Liability. In consideration of the benefits accruing under this Lease to Tenant and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease or in any exhibits, riders, amendments, or addenda to this Lease (collectively, the Lease Documents), it is expressly understood and agreed by and between the parties to this Lease that: (i) the recourse of Tenant or its successors or assigns against Landlord (and the liability of Landlord to Tenant, its successors and assigns) with respect to (a) any actual or alleged breach or breaches by or on the part of Landlord of any representation, warranty, covenant, undertaking or agreement contained in any of the Lease Documents, or (b) any matter relating to Tenants occupancy of the Tenant Space (collectively, the Landlords Lease Undertakings), shall be limited solely to an aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000.00; (ii) Tenant shall have no recourse against any other assets of the Landlord Group (as defined in the Basic Lease Information); (iii) except to the extent of Landlords interest in the Property, no personal liability or personal responsibility of any sort with respect to any of Landlords Lease Undertakings or any alleged breach thereof is assumed by, or shall at any time be asserted or enforceable against, the Landlord Group, and (iv) at no time shall Landlord be responsible or liable to Tenant for any lost profits, lost economic opportunities or any form of consequential damages as the result of any actual or alleged breach of Landlord of Landlords Lease Undertakings.
16.3 Transfer of Landlords Interest. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to assign its interest in this Lease in whole or, to a wholly owned subsidiary, in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any assignment in part to a wholly-owned subsidiary, (i) Landlord shall provide a written notice to Tenant specifying the rights and obligations so assigned and (ii) Landlord shall guaranty the performance of the obligations assigned to such wholly-owned subsidiary; provided, however, Landlords maximum liability under such guaranty shall not exceed the maximum liability it would have had under this Lease if such obligations had not been assigned. Landlord and each successor to Landlord shall be fully released from the performance of Landlords obligations under the Lease Documents upon their transfer of Landlords interest in the Property to a third party. Landlord shall not be liable for any obligation under the Lease Documents after a transfer of its interest in the Property and Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease for all obligations and liabilities accruing on or after the date of such transfer. If any security has been given by Tenant to secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord may transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlords successor in interest and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with regard to said security.
17. MISCELLANEOUS.
-20-
17.1 Severability. If any provision of this Lease is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby.
17.2 Performance. The covenants and obligations of Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be independent of performance by Landlord of the covenants and obligations of Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Tenants performance of each of its obligations under this Lease shall be a condition precedent to the duty of Landlord to perform its obligations hereunder.
17.3 Attorneys Fees and Costs. If either Landlord or Tenant initiates any litigation, mediation, arbitration or other proceeding regarding the enforcement, construction or interpretation of this Lease, then the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing partys attorneys fees and costs (including, without limitation, all expense reimbursements, expert witness fees and litigation costs). In addition, if it should otherwise be necessary or proper for Landlord to consult an attorney concerning this Lease for the review of instruments evidencing a proposed Transfer, for the purpose of collecting Rent, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord its actual attorneys fees whether suit be brought or not to the extent such fees exceed $500.00.
17.4 Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. IN ORDER TO LIMIT THE COST OF RESOLVING ANY DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES, AND AS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO THIS LEASE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY TRIAL HELD AS A RESULT OF A CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN ANY MANNER RELATED TO THIS LEASE IN WHICH LANDLORD AND TENANT ARE ADVERSE PARTIES. THE FILING OF A CROSS-COMPLAINT BY ONE AGAINST THE OTHER IS SUFFICIENT TO MAKE THE PARTIES ADVERSE.
17.5 Headings; Time; Survival. The headings of the Articles, Sections and Exhibits of this Lease are for convenience only and do not define, limit or construe the contents thereof. Words of any gender used in this Lease shall be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has read and reviewed this Lease and that it has had the opportunity to confer with counsel in the negotiation of this Lease. Accordingly, this Lease shall be construed neither for nor against Landlord or Tenant, but shall be given a fair and reasonable interpretation in accordance with the meaning of its terms and the intent of the parties. In all instances where Tenant is required to pay any sum or do any act at a particular indicated time or within an indicated period, it is understood that time is of the essence. Any obligations of Tenant accruing prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall promptly perform all such obligations whether or not this Lease has expired.
17.6 Notices. Any notice which may or shall be given under the provisions of this Lease shall be in writing and may be delivered by (i) by hand delivery or personal service, (ii) by a reputable overnight courier service which provides evidence of delivery, (iii) by facsimile (so long as a confirming copy is forwarded by a reputable overnight courier service within twenty-four (24) hours thereafter), or (iv) by email (so long as a confirming copy is forwarded by a reputable overnight courier service within twenty-four (24) hours thereafter), if for Landlord, to the Building office and at the address specified in Item 16 of the Basic Lease Information, or if for Tenant, at the address specified in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Information, or at such other addresses as either party may have theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith. Such address may be changed from time to time by either party by giving notice as provided herein. Notice shall be deemed given, (a) when delivered (if delivered by hand or personal service), (b) if sent by a reputable overnight courier service, on the business day immediately following the business day on which it was sent, (c) the date the facsimile is transmitted, or (d) the date the e-mail is transmitted. If the term Tenant as used in this Lease refers to more than one (1) person and/or entity, and notice given as aforesaid to any one of such persons and/or entities shall be deemed to have been duly given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, in the case where
-21-
statutory law requires that any notice, notice to quit or pay rent, summons or complaint (or any other form of writing required in connection with the assertion of rights against Tenant, the enforcement of Tenants obligations under this Lease or the termination of Tenants rights hereunder) (collectively, Statutory Written Notices or Complaints) must be delivered or served in a particular form, delivered to or served on Tenant through delivery to or service on a particular representative of Tenant, delivered or served in a particular manner (or by a particular method), for purposes of determining compliance with such applicable statutory requirements, the time, manner or method of delivery of all such Statutory Written Notices or Complaints delivered to or served on all of the Tenant addressees for notices listed in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Information (other than the timing, manner and/or method of delivery of the Statutory Written Notice or Complaint to the first addressee listed in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Information) shall be disregarded, and if the timing, manner and, method of delivery and form of the Statutory Written Notice or Complaint delivered to the first addressee listed in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Information shall satisfy the applicable statutory requirements, then such statutory requirements shall be deemed satisfied with respect to the timing, manner, and method of delivery and form with respect to all Tenant addressees as of the date of delivery to such first addressee.
17.7 Governing Law; No Counterclaim; Jurisdiction. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Property is located. It is mutually agreed that in the event Landlord commences any summary proceeding for non-payment of Rent, Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaims) of whatever nature or description in any such proceeding. The foregoing shall not be construed to prevent Tenant from bringing a separate action related to such counterclaims. In addition, Tenant hereby submits to local jurisdiction in the state in which the Property is located and agrees that any action by Tenant against Landlord shall be instituted in the state in which the Property is located and that Landlord shall have personal jurisdiction over Tenant for any action brought by Landlord against Tenant in the state in which the Property is located.
17.8 Incorporation; Amendment; Merger. This Lease, along with any exhibits and attachments or other documents referred to herein, all of which are hereby incorporated into this Lease by this reference, constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between Landlord and Tenant relating to the Tenant Space, the Datacenter Connection Area and the Datacenter, and each of the aforementioned documents may be altered, amended or revoked only by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged thereby. All prior or contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and/or practices relative to the leasing or use of the Tenant Space, the Datacenter Connection Area or the Datacenter are merged herein or revoked hereby.
17.9 Brokers. Each party hereto represents to the other that the representing party has not engaged, dealt with or been represented by any broker in connection with this Lease other than the brokers specified in Item 18 of the Basic Lease Information. Landlord and Tenant shall each indemnify, defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the other) and hold harmless the other party from and against all Claims (including attorneys fees and all litigation expenses) related to any claim made by any other person or entity for any commission or other compensation in connection with the execution of this Lease or the leasing of the Tenant Space to Tenant if based on an allegation that claimant dealt through the indemnifying party. The provisions of this Section 17.9 shall survive the termination of this Lease.
17.10 Examination of Lease. This Lease shall not be binding or effective until each of the parties hereto have executed and delivered an original or counterpart hereof to each other.
17.11 Recordation. Neither Tenant nor any person or entity acting through, under or on behalf of Tenant shall record or cause the recordation of this Lease, a short form memorandum of this Lease or any reference to this Lease.
17.12 Authority. Landlord and Tenant represent to the other party that the person signing the Lease on their respective behalf is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease pursuant to their respective by-laws, operating agreement, resolution or other legally sufficient authority. Further, each party represents to the other party that (i) if it is a partnership, the undersigned are all of its general
-22-
partners, (ii) it has been validly formed or incorporated, (iii) it is duly qualified to do business in the state in which the Property is located, and (iv) this Lease is being executed on its behalf and for its benefit.
17.13 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all of the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives and permitted successors and assigns.
17.14 Force Majeure. A party shall incur no liability to the other party with respect to, and shall not be responsible for any failure to perform, any of its obligations hereunder (other than payment obligations or obligations that may be cured by the payment of money (e.g., maintaining insurance)) if such failure is caused by any reason beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform such obligations, including, but not limited to, strike, labor trouble, governmental rule, regulations, ordinance, statute or interpretation, or by fire, earthquake, civil commotion, or failure or disruption of utility services (collectively, Force Majeure). The amount of time for a party to perform any of its obligations (other than payment obligations) shall be extended by the amount of time it is delayed in performing such obligation by reason or any force majeure occurrence whether similar to or different from the foregoing types of occurrences.
17.15 No Partnership or Joint Venture; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed to create the relationship of principal and agent, or partnership, or joint venturer, or any other relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than landlord and tenant. Landlord shall have no obligations hereunder to any person or entity other than Tenant or any person or entity claiming through Tenant, and no other parties shall have any rights hereunder as against Landlord.
17.16 Access by Landlord. Landlord, Landlords agents and employees shall have the right to enter upon any and all parts of the Tenant Space at any reasonable time upon prior reasonable oral or written notice (except in the case of an emergency when no prior notice shall be required) to examine the condition thereof, to clean, to make any repairs, alterations or additions required to be made by Landlord hereunder, to show the Tenant Space to prospective purchasers or tenants or mortgage lenders (prospective or current), to determine whether Tenant is complying with all of its obligations under this Lease, to exercise any of Landlords rights or remedies hereunder and for any reasonable purpose. In connection with Landlords rights hereunder, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, on or about the Tenant Space, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means by which Landlord may deem proper to open such doors to obtain entry to the Tenant Space. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury to Tenants business or inconvenience to, or interference with, Tenants business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Tenant Space or any other loss occasioned by such entry, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Rent by reason thereof, and no such entry to the Tenant Space shall be deemed or construed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of the Tenant Space or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from any part of the Tenant Space. Notwithstanding anything in Sections 17.16 and 17.17, any rules or regulations promulgated by Landlord or any maintenance schedule relative to Landlords access to the Tenant Space to the contrary, Landlord agrees that (except in the case of an emergency) Landlords access to the Premises shall be subject to Landlords compliance with the procedures required by Tenant (Tenants Security Procedures), provided that (i) Landlord has received notice of Tenants Security Procedures and any changes thereof, and (ii) Tenants Security Procedures (as amended from time to time by Tenant) do not unreasonably interfere with Landlords ability to perform, or increase the cost to Landlord to perform, Landlords obligations under this Lease or any other lease demising premises in the Building. Tenant shall deliver written notice of the changes to Tenants Security Procedures to Landlord at Landlords address for notices as provided herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except for emergencies, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption of Tenants business or occupancy during such entries.

ARIZONA STATE LAW PROVISIONS
1. | REMEDIES FOR EVENTS OF DEFAULT. |
1.1 Landlords Right to Terminate Upon Tenant Default. This Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted and the demise hereby made are subject to the limitation that if and whenever any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Landlord may, at Landlords option, in addition to all other rights and remedies given hereunder or by law or equity, do any one or more of the following without notice or demand, any such notice or demand being hereby waived, to the extent that such waiver is allowed by Applicable Laws:
1.1.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Tenant Space to Landlord.
1.1.2 Enter upon and take possession of the Tenant Space and expel or remove Tenant and any other occupant therefrom, with or without having terminated the Lease.
1.1.3 Alter locks and other security devices at the Tenant Space.
1.1.4 Terminate any and all agreements, subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant, with Landlord or with third parties, and affecting the Tenant Space or any part of the Meet-Me Room or the Building.
1.2 No Surrender or Merger. Exercise by Landlord of any one or more remedies hereunder granted or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of all or any part of the Tenant Space by Tenant, whether by agreement or by operation of law, it being understood that such surrender can be effected only by the written agreement of Landlord and Tenant. No such alteration of security devices and no removal or other exercise of dominion by Landlord over the property of Tenant or others on or about the Tenant Space shall be deemed unauthorized or constitute a conversion, Tenant hereby consenting, after any Event of Default, to the aforesaid exercise of dominion over Tenants property within the Building. All claims for damages by reason of such re-entry and/or possession and/or alteration of locks or other security devices are hereby waived, as are all claims for damages by reason of any distress warrant, forcible detainer proceedings, sequestration proceedings or other legal process, to the extent that such waiver is allowed by Applicable Laws. Tenant agrees that any re-entry by Landlord may be pursuant to judgment obtained in forcible detainer proceedings or other legal proceedings or without the necessity for any legal proceedings, as Landlord may elect, and Landlord shall not be liable in trespass or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained or implied in the foregoing, Landlord agrees, in the exercise of its remedies under this Exhibit D, to use commercially reasonable efforts in the physical handling and/or moving of Tenants property, and to be and remain responsible for the gross negligence and willful misconduct of Landlord and of Landlords agents, employees and contractors in connection therewith.
1.3 Damages Upon Default. If Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease by reason of an Event of Default, then, notwithstanding such termination, Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay to Landlord the sum of all rental and other indebtedness accrued to the date of such termination, plus, as damages, an amount equal to the then present value of the rental reserved hereunder (including, without limitation, Rent and all other charges under this Lease) for the remaining portion of the Term of this Lease (had such Term not been terminated by Landlord prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease), less the then present value of the fair rental value of the Tenant Space for such period.
In the event that Landlord elects to terminate the Lease by reason of any Event of Default, in lieu of exercising the rights of Landlord under the preceding paragraph of this Section 1.3, Landlord may instead hold Tenant liable for all rental and other indebtedness accrued to the date of such

In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease, subject to Applicable Laws, Landlord shall be entitled to a restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease or to a decree compelling specific performance of any such covenants, conditions or provisions.
1.7 Reletting. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has entered into this Lease in reliance upon, among other matters, Tenants agreement and continuing obligation to pay all rental due throughout the Term. As a result, Tenant hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives, after advice of competent counsel, any duty of Landlord (and any affirmative defense based upon such duty) following any default to relet the Tenant Space or otherwise mitigate Landlords damages arising from such default, except as set forth in Section 1.9, below. In connection with the foregoing, and consistent with Landlords duty to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages as set forth in Section 1.9, below, Tenant agrees that Landlord has no obligation to: (i) relet the Tenant Space prior to leasing any other space within the Building; or (ii) relet the Tenant Space (A) at a rental rate or otherwise on terms below market, as then determined by Landlord in its sole discretion; (B) to any entity not satisfying Landlords then standard financial credit risk criteria; (C) for a use (1) not consistent with Tenants use prior to default; (2) which would violate then applicable law or any restrictive covenant or other lease affecting the Building; (3) which would impose a greater burden upon the Buildings facilities; or (4) which would involve any use of Hazardous Materials; or (iii) make any alterations to the Tenant Space, the Datacenter or the Building or otherwise incur any costs in connection with any such reletting, unless Tenant unconditionally delivers to Landlord, in good and sufficient funds, the full amount thereof in advance.

COMMISSIONING CRITERIA
Infrastructure commissioning consists of five general levels of activities summarized as follows, the specifics of which shall be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant.
Level 1 Factory Testing
Manufacturers standard test reports will be reviewed prior to shipment of equipment to the site.
Level 2 Component Verification
Individual system components are verified at the site upon delivery for compliance to the design specifications, drawings, and approved submittals or shop drawings.
Level 3 System Construction Verification
As the components are assembled into individual systems, the construction or installation of the overall system is verified. This includes an evaluation on interconnection between components, physical arrangement, support and anchoring, and access and clearance.
Level 4 Individual System and Major Equipment Operation Verification
Subsequent to the completion of construction and assembly of each individual system or major equipment element, it is started-up and tested for proper functional operation and performance.
Level 5 Integrated Systems Operation Verification
The test procedures that comprise Level 5 commissioning are designed to simulate the operation of the Premises during a full range of operational situations, including loss of utility services, single and multiple equipment failure, normal sequential changes to the equipment operation, and planned maintenance operations. Tenant shall have the right to review the test procedures in advance to confirm that such test procedures are in accordance with generally accepted practices.
This effort is dependent upon the successful completion of all prior levels of commissioning. The assembly of appropriate documentation and certifications for the completion of Level Four commissioning will be a prerequisite.
Level 5 commissioning will typically be completed in four basic steps:
| Initial planning |
| Preparation of test procedures |
| Implementation of tests |
| Documentation of test results. Tenant shall have the right to review the test results to confirm that the test results are in accordance with the objective requirements set forth in the test procedures. |
To the extent that is possible, training of operational staff will be enhanced by their witnessing of and participation in the actual Level 5 testing. Specific training exercises may be considered where appropriate and time allows.

The L/C shall be issued by an institutional lender of good financial standing (which lender shall, in any event, have assets equal to or exceeding $500,000,000 as of the date of issuance of the L/C), having a place of business where the L/C can be presented for payment in Phoenix, Arizona. The lender shall be subject to Landlords prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The L/C shall provide for one (1) or more draws by Landlord or its transferee up to the aggregate amount of US $81,131.00 (the L/C Amount) on the terms and conditions of this Exhibit I. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the L/C or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a security deposit under any Applicable Security Deposit Laws.
B. Renewal of L/C. Tenant shall maintain the L/C in effect from the date which Tenant delivers the L/C to Landlord until the date which is sixty (60) days after Tenant shall have performed all of its obligations under the Lease (said period is hereinafter referred to as the L/C Term). If the expiration date of the L/C (or any renewal or replacement L/C provided pursuant to this section) occurs prior to the end of the L/C Term, then Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a renewal of the L/C or a replacement L/C meeting all of the terms and conditions of this section, not later than sixty (60) days prior to the then-applicable expiration date. Each L/C provided pursuant to this section shall have an expiration date which is at least one (1) year from such L/Cs date of issue except where the then-applicable expiration date of the L/C is less than one (1) year from the end of the L/C Term, in which case the renewal or replacement L/C shall be for such lesser period. The issuing banks agreement to place an automatic renewal provision in the L/C, as required pursuant to said Appendix I, shall not relieve or release Tenant from its obligation to provide a renewal or replacement L/C on the terms hereinabove stated, it being understood that any such automatic renewal is an independent obligation of the issuing bank which is intended for Landlords sole benefit. If Tenant fails to provide the renewal or replacement L/C not later than sixty (60) days prior to the then-applicable, stated expiration date (excluding automatic renewal provisions), such failure shall be a default by Tenant, and Landlord shall have the right, without notice or demand, on one or more occasions, to draw upon all or any part of the remaining proceeds of the L/C.
C. Draw on L/C. Landlord may elect from time to time, in Landlords sole discretion, without notice or demand to Tenant, to draw upon all or any part of the remaining proceeds of the L/C upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (i) Tenant fails to perform any of its obligations under the Lease (including, but not limited to, its obligations under this section), whether or not such failure constitutes a default by Tenant as defined in the Lease; or (ii) Tenant makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors, Tenant declares bankruptcy or is the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, a trustee or receiver is appointed to take possession of some or all of Tenants assets or, in Landlords reasonable judgment, Tenant is insolvent.
D. Application of L/C Proceeds Landlord may elect, from time to time, upon written notice to Tenant, in Landlords sole discretion, to apply the proceeds it receives from a draw on the L/C in one or more of the following manners without prejudice to any other remedies: (i) as payment for some or all of the rent or other amounts owed by Tenant under the Lease but unpaid on the date of such draw, (ii) as payment for some or all of the future amounts of rent or other amounts that Landlord estimates will be due and payable under the Lease after the date of the draw, (iii) as payment for some or all of the damage Landlord may suffer as a result of Tenants failure to perform its obligations under the Lease, (iv) as collateral for obligations of Tenant under the Lease, and/or (v) in any other manner permitted by the Lease or applicable law. Landlord may make one or more partial draws under the L/C and shall have the right, upon written notice to Tenant, to treat each draw or a portion thereof in one or more of the ways described
-1-
in the previous sentence. Tenant hereby waives any other law or regulation that may be inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this section.
E. Enforcement. Tenants obligation to furnish the L/C shall not be released, modified or affected by any failure or delay on the part of Landlord to enforce or assert any of its rights or remedies under the Lease or this section, whether pursuant to the terms thereof or at law or in equity. Landlords right to draw upon the L/C shall be without prejudice or limitation to Landlords right to draw upon any security deposit provided by Tenant to Landlord or to avail itself of any other rights or remedies available to Landlord under the Lease, as amended hereby, or at law or equity.
F. Event of Default. Tenants failure to perform its obligations under this Exhibit I (time being of the essence) shall constitute an Event of Default under the Lease and shall entitle Landlord to immediately exercise all of its rights and remedies under the Lease (including, but not limited to rights and remedies under this Exhibit I) or at law or in equity without notice or demand to Tenant.
G. Conflict. If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Exhibit I and the terms and conditions of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, the terms of this Exhibit I shall control.
