2.

Granting Clause. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay rent and of the other terms, covenants, and conditions as herein provided, Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant takes from Landlord, the Premises, for the Lease Term, subject to the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease.  Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that the individual executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant has the full right and authority to enter into this Lease in accordance with the terms hereof, and all corporate action necessary to do so has been duly taken, and no further action or approval is required in order to constitute this Lease as a binding and enforceable obligation of Tenant.

 

 

3.

Acceptance of Premises. Tenant accepts the Premises in its condition as of the Commencement Date, subject to all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations, covenants and restrictions. Landlord has made no representation or warranty as to the suitability of the Premises for the conduct of Tenant's business, and Tenant waives any implied warranty that the Premises are suitable for Tenant's intended purposes. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not have any obligation for any defects in the Premises or any limitation on its use. No later than 10 days after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a Commencement Date Certificate in the form of Exhibit C. Any occupation of the Premises by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all obligations of Tenant under this Lease except for the payment of Base Rent and Operating Expenses.

 

Subject to the vacation of the Premises by the existing tenant, if any, Landlord shall allow Tenant access to the Premises upon vacation of the Premises by the existing tenant, if any, for purposes of preparing the Premises for the commencement of Tenant’s normal business operations, subject to applicable ordinances and building codes governing Tenant’s right to occupy or perform in the Premises (“Early Occupancy”). During such Early Occupancy period prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant shall be bound by its obligations under the Lease, including the obligation to provide evidence of insurance, but shall not be obligated to pay the Monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord as set forth in the Lease.

 

Landlord represents and warrants that as of the Commencement Date the Premises’ roof, HVAC, electrical, lighting, plumbing, fire sprinkler and other mechanical systems are in good working order.

 

 

 

4.

Use. The Premises shall be used only for the purpose of general office administration, research and development, light manufacturing, storage, receiving, storing, shipping and selling (but specifically excluding retail selling) products, and for such other lawful purposes incidental thereto. Tenant shall not conduct any auction, liquidation, or similar activities at the Premises, and will use the Premises, Building, and Project in a safe manner and will not commit waste, overload the floor or structure of the Premises, or subject the Premises to use that would damage the Premises. Tenant shall not permit any outside storage, nuisance or objectionable odors, noise, or vibrations to emanate from the Premises. Tenant shall use the Premises in compliance with all federal, state, local, and municipal laws, orders, judgments, ordinances, regulations, codes, permits, licenses, covenants and restrictions now or hereafter applicable to the Premises (collectively, "Legal Requirements"). The Premises shall not be used as a place of public accommodation under the Americans With Disabilities Act, similar state statutes, local ordinances, or any related regulations, as may be amended from time to time. The Premises shall not be used for residential purposes. Tenant shall, at its expense, make any alterations or modifications to the Premises or Project that are required by Legal Requirements as a result of Tenant's use or occupation of the Premises. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any occupation of the Premises by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

 

Subject to Legal Requirements (as hereinafter defined) during the Lease Term, Tenant shall be entitled to access of the Premises 24 hours per day, seven days per week, 365 days per year.

 

 

 

5.

Base Rent. The first month's Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be due and payable upon execution of this Lease, which amounts shall be applied to the first month when such amounts become due and payable. Tenant shall pay to Landlord in advance, without demand, subsequent monthly installments of Base Rent on, or before, the first day of each calendar month following the Commencement Date (prorated for any fractional calendar month). All payments by Tenant to Landlord (or to such other party or at such location as Landlord may from time to time specify in writing) shall be made by Electronic Fund Transfer or Automated Clearing House.  The obligation of Tenant to pay Base Rent, Operating Expenses and other sums to Landlord and the obligations of Landlord under this Lease are independent obligations. Tenant shall not abate, reduce, or set-off any amounts due and payable hereunder except as may be expressly provided in this Lease. If Tenant is delinquent in any monthly installment of Base Rent, Operating Expenses, or other amount due and payable herein beyond 5 days after the due date thereof, and after notice as provided below, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a late charge equal to eight percent (8%) of such delinquent sum. Tenant shall not be obligated to pay the late charge until Landlord has given Tenant 5 days written notice of the delinquent payment (which may be given at any time during the delinquency); provided, however, that such notice shall not be required more than once in any 12-month period. The provision for such late charge shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as a penalty or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner.

 

 

 

6.

Operating Expenses.  During each month of the Lease Term, on the same date that Base Rent is due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to 1/12 of the annual cost, as estimated by Landlord from time to time, of Tenant's Proportionate Share (hereinafter defined) of Operating Expenses for the Project or Building. Payments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated. The term "Operating Expenses" means all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord directly from the ownership, maintenance, and operation of the Project including, but not limited to costs of: Taxes (hereinafter defined); insurance; utilities; maintenance, repair and replacement of all portions of the Building, Premises, and Project, including without limitation, paving and parking areas, roads, non-structural components of exterior walls, non-structural components of the roofs (including the roof membrane), alleys, and driveways, mowing, landscaping, snow removal, exterior painting, utility lines, fire sprinklers and fire protection systems, the current amortized portion of any capital repairs and replacements of all portions of the Building, Premises, and Project, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (as defined below), lighting, electrical systems and other mechanical and building systems; amounts paid to contractors and subcontractors for work or services performed in connection with any of the foregoing; charges or assessments of any association to which the Project is subject; a property management or administration fee payable to a property manager, including Landlord, or any affiliate of Landlord, equal to three (3%) percent of gross receipts due and payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease; a deductible for all-risk property insurance not to exceed USD$25,000; security services, if any; trash collection, sweeping and debris removal; and additions or alterations made by Landlord to the Project or the Building in order to comply with Legal Requirements (other than those expressly required herein to be made by Tenant) or that are appropriate to the continued operation of the Project or the Building as an industrial/warehouse facility in the market area, provided that the cost of additions or alterations that are required to be capitalized for federal income tax purposes shall be amortized on a straight line basis over a period equal to the useful life thereof as determined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

 

 

Operating Expenses do not include (a) debt service under mortgages or ground rent under ground leases; (b) leasing commissions, or the costs of renovating space for tenants; (c) repairs, alterations, additions, improvements or replacements made to rectify or correct any defect in the design, materials or workmanship of the Premises, the Building or the Project; (d) costs of repairs, restoration, replacements or other work occasioned by (i) fire, windstorm or other casualty (including the costs of any deductibles paid by Landlord) and either (aa) payable (whether paid or not) by insurance required to be carried by Landlord under this Lease, or (bb) otherwise paid by insurance then in effect obtained by Landlord (ii) the adjudicated negligence or adjudicated intentional tort of Landlord, or any representative, employee or agent of Landlord, (iii) the act of any other tenant in the Premises, the Building or the Project, or any other tenant’s agents, employees, licensees or invitees to the extent the applicable cost is, in the Landlord’s reasonable judgment, practically recoverable from such person; (e) costs incurred (less costs of recovery) for any items to the extent such amounts are recoverable by Landlord under a manufacturer’s, materialman’s, vendor’s or contractor’s warranty; (f) non-cash items, such as deductions for depreciation and amortization of the Premises, the Building or the Project and the Premises, the Building or the Project equipment, or interest on capital invested; (g) legal fees, accountants’ fees and other expenses incurred in connection with (i) the negotiation of and entry into any lease or other arrangements with other tenants of the Premises, Building or Project, and (ii) disputes with other tenants or occupants of the Premises, the Building or the Project or associated with defense of Landlord’s title to or interest in the Premises, the Building or the Project or any part thereof; (h) costs incurred due to violation by Landlord or any other tenant in the Premises, the Building or the Project of the terms and conditions of any lease; (i) the cost of any service provided to Tenant or other occupants of the Premises, the Building or the Project for which Landlord is entitled to be reimbursed; (j) charitable or political contributions; (k) interest, penalties or other costs arising out of Landlord’s failure to make timely payments of its obligations; (l) costs, expenses, depreciation or amortization for repairs and replacements required to be made by Landlord under Paragraph 11 of this Lease, (m) expenses in connection with services or other benefits which are not offered to Tenant or for which Tenant is charged for directly but which are provided to another tenant or occupant of the Building; or (n) costs incurred by Landlord due to the violation by Landlord of any law, code, regulation, or ordinance.

 

 

No later than 90 days following the first day of each calendar year during the Lease Term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an Operating Expense Reconciliation Invoice (“Invoice”) and an Operating Expense Summary Report listing the Operating Expenses for the prior year of the Lease Term (“Report”). Provided (x) no Event of Default exists under this Lease, (y) no payments of Base Rent, Operating Expenses, or other amounts due under the Lease are outstanding, and (z) Tenant has a reasonable belief that the Invoice and Report contain an error to the detriment of Tenant, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to examine property invoices evidencing such costs and expenses as provided in the Invoice and Report which Tenant believes to be in error as more specifically provided herein. Such review of Landlord’s property invoices may occur not more than once per year at Landlord’s local market office during reasonable business hours. Landlord agrees to make the property invoices pertaining to those items which Tenant reasonably believes to be in error, a copier and conference room available to Tenant for a period not to exceed one week to examine such property invoices. In the event Tenant desires to exercise the foregoing right, Tenant shall deliver written notice of Tenant’s intent to review the property invoices, and shall identify the item(s) contained in the Invoice and Report which Tenant believes to be in error, no later than thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of the Invoice and Report. Time is of the essence with regards to the delivery of such notice. Upon Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work in good faith to schedule a time and date for such property invoice examination which shall be acceptable to both parties. In the event that Tenant accurately determines that the Invoice and Report contain an error to the detriment of Tenant, Landlord shall immediately provide a revised Invoice and Report to Tenant. If Tenant has already paid the Invoice, Landlord will provide a credit against Tenant’s obligations to pay Base Rent the amount overpaid by Tenant. Tenant shall keep any information gained from such examination confidential and shall not disclose it to any other party, except as required by law. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall be required to sign a confidentiality agreement as a condition of Landlord making Landlord’s invoices available for inspection. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant retain any person paid on a contingency fee basis to act on behalf of Tenant with regards to the forgoing rights to review the property invoices and Landlord shall have no obligation to allow any such representative paid on a contingency fee basis access to Landlord’s records. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant agrees that Tenant’s sole remedy pertaining to an error in the Invoice or Report shall be for the recovery from Landlord an amount equal to the amount overpaid by Tenant, and Tenant waives any right to terminate this Lease as a result of any such error in the Invoice or Report which Tenant may have under law or equity.

 

 

If Tenant's total payments of Operating Expenses for any year are less than Tenant's Proportionate Share of actual Operating Expenses for such year, then Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within 30 days after demand, and if more, then Landlord shall either, at Landlord’s option, retain such excess and credit it against Tenant's next payments or pay such refund to Tenant, except that during the last calendar year of the Lease Term or any extension terms thereof, Landlord shall refund any such excess within 60 days following the termination of the Lease Term or any extension terms thereof, provided that Tenant is not in default of its obligations under this Lease. Any payment required to be paid by Landlord after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease shall be delivered to the most recent address Tenant has provided to Landlord. With respect to Operating Expenses which Landlord allocates to the entire Project or just the Building, Tenant's "Proportionate Share" shall be the percentage set forth in Paragraph 1 of this Lease as Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Project or Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Building (as applicable) as reasonably adjusted by Landlord in the future for changes in the physical size of the Premises, Building, or the Project. Landlord may equitably increase Tenant's Proportionate Share for any item of expense or cost reimbursable by Tenant that relates to a repair, replacement, or service that benefits only the Premises or only a portion of the Project or Building that includes the Premises or that varies with Tenant’s use. The estimated Operating Expenses for the Premises set forth in Paragraph 1 of this Lease are only estimates, and Landlord makes no guaranty or warranty that such estimates will be accurate.

 

 

 

7.

Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall be due and payable to Landlord upon execution of this Lease, and shall be held by Landlord as security for the performance of Tenant's obligations. The Security Deposit is not an advance rental deposit, or a measure of Landlord's damages in an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined). Upon any Event of Default, Landlord may use all, or part of, the Security Deposit to pay delinquent payments due under this Lease, and the cost of any damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such Event of Default, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law. Tenant shall pay Landlord within ten (10) business days of demand, the amount that will restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Landlord's obligation respecting the Security Deposit is that of a debtor, not a trustee.   The Security Deposit shall be the property of Landlord, and any remaining amount of the Security Deposit shall be paid to Tenant within thirty (30) days of the date when Tenant's obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts, and no interest shall accrue thereon. Tenant waives any limitations set forth in California Civil Code Section 1950.7 limiting the use to which a security deposit may be applied. Landlord shall be released from any obligation with respect to the Security Deposit upon transfer of this Lease and the Premises to a person or entity assuming Landlord's obligations.

 

 

 

8.

Utilities. Tenant shall pay the utility provider directly for all separately metered, or contracted public and private utilities serving the Premises, including, but not limited to, water, gas, electricity, telephone, sewer, and trash collection, along with any taxes, penalties, or surcharges with respect to such utilities. Tenant agrees to limit use of water and sewer to amounts consistent with normal restroom, break room, and office use. In the event Tenant’s use of water and sewer services materially exceeds the foregoing limitations, Landlord may separately meter the water and sewer services at Tenant’s expense and require Tenant to pay the service provider directly. Interruptions or failures of utilities shall not result in a default by Landlord, termination of this Lease, or the abatement of rent.

 

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that such interruption or cessation of utilities results from Landlord’s negligent or willful act or omission, and continues beyond five (5) consecutive business days from the date of such interruption or cessation, then, provided Tenant has delivered Landlord with prompt notice of such interruption, the rent under this Lease will abate, commencing on the sixth (6th) consecutive business day the Premises remain untenantable, and continuing until the date on which the utilities are restored and the Premises are again tenantable. No abatement of rentals as hereinabove described will apply in the event such interruption of utilities is the result of Tenant's alterations to the Premises, or any negligent act or omission of Tenant, its agents, employees or contractors, or any cause other than the negligent or willful act or omission of Landlord or its employees, agents or contractors.

 

 

 

9.

Taxes. Landlord shall pay all taxes, assessments, governmental charges, and fees payable to tax consultants and attorneys for consultation and contesting taxes (collectively referred to as "Taxes") that accrue against the Building or Project during the Lease Term, which shall be included as part of the Operating Expenses charged to Tenant.   Landlord may contest the amount, validity, or application of any Taxes. All capital levies or other taxes assessed or imposed upon the rents payable to Landlord under this Lease and any franchise tax, excise, use, margin, transaction, sales or privilege tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon such rents from or the value of the Premises and/or the Project or any portion thereof shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand as additional rent; provided, however, in no event shall Tenant be liable for any net income taxes imposed on Landlord unless such net income taxes are in substitution for any Taxes payable hereunder. If any tax or excise is levied or assessed directly against Tenant, or the Premises, or results from any Tenant-Made Alterations (defined below), or against any personal property or fixtures placed in the Premises, then Tenant shall pay such tax or excise as required by the taxing authority, even if levied or assessed against the Landlord.

 

 

 

10.

Insurance. Landlord shall maintain all risk property insurance covering the full replacement cost of the Building and commercial general liability insurance on the Project in forms and amounts customary for properties substantially similar to the Building and Project which may be included in a blanket policy or captive insurance program (in which case the cost of such insurance allocable to the Project or Building will be determined by Landlord based upon the total insurance cost calculations). Landlord may, but is not obligated to, maintain such other insurance and additional coverages as it may deem necessary, including, but not limited to, rent loss insurance. All insurance premiums incurred by Landlord with respect to the Project shall be included in Operating Expenses. Tenant will not use the Premises in any manner that would void Tenant's or Landlord's insurance, increase the insurance risk, or cause the disallowance of any insurance credits. If an increase in the cost of any insurance on the Building or the Project is caused by Tenant's use of the Premises, then Tenant shall pay the amount of such increase to Landlord.

 

 

Tenant, at its sole expense, shall at all times maintain the following insurance: (i) commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence basis, covering Tenant, and its activities at the Project, having a minimum limit of $2,000,000 per occurrence (which requirement may be satisfied by a combination of primary and excess policy limits); and in the event property of Tenant’s invitees or customers are kept in the Premises or Project, Tenant shall maintain warehouser’s legal liability or bailee customers insurance for the full value of such property as determined by the warehouse contract between Tenant and its customer; (ii) all risk property insurance covering the full replacement cost of all property and improvements placed in the Premises by, or on behalf of, Tenant; (iii) workers’ compensation insurance as required by the applicable state statute (or equivalent coverage reasonably acceptable to Landlord in the event there is no such statutory requirement) which shall include a waiver of subrogation in favor of Landlord, Prologis, Inc., its affiliates, and property manager (Landlord and such parties are collectively referred to herein as the “Landlord Parties”); (iv) employers liability insurance of at least $1,000,000; and (v) business automobile liability insurance having a combined single limit of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence which can be satisfied by a combination of primary and excess policy limits insuring Tenant against liability arising out of the ownership maintenance or use of any owned, hired or non-owned vehicles; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to carry such insurance in the event Tenant does not use any owned, hired or non-owned vehicles at the Premises. Tenant’s insurance companies shall have an A.M. Best rating of not less than A-VIII and provide primary and non-contributory coverage to the Landlord Parties (any policy issued to Landlord providing duplicate or similar coverage shall be deemed excess over Tenant's policies). All commercial general liability policies shall name the Landlord Parties as additional insureds. The limits and types of insurance maintained by Tenant shall not limit Tenant’s liability under this Lease. Tenant shall provide Landlord with certificates of such insurance in forms reasonably acceptable to Landlord prior to the date Tenant is in possession of the Premises, and thereafter at least 15 days prior to the expiration of the insurance coverage, or 15 days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s request for such certificates, provided that such requests from the Landlord shall occur no more than two (2) times in any 12 month period. Acceptance by Landlord of delivery of any certificates of insurance does not constitute approval or agreement by Landlord that the insurance requirements of this section have been met. In the event any of the insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease shall be cancelled, or if Tenant receives notice of any cancellation from the insurer prior to the expiration date of such policy, Tenant shall promptly replace such insurance policy in order to assure no lapse of coverage shall occur.

 

 

The all risk property insurance obtained by Landlord and Tenant shall include a waiver of subrogation by the insurers and all rights based upon an assignment from its insured, against Landlord, and Landlord Parties or Tenant, and Tenant Parties (as defined in Paragraph 30), in connection with any insured loss or damage. Neither party, nor its Landlord Parties or Tenant Parties (as applicable), shall be liable to the other for loss or damage caused by any risk coverable by all risk property insurance, and each party waives any claims against the other party, and against the Landlord Parties and Tenant Parties (as applicable) for such loss or damage. The failure of a party to insure its property shall not void this waiver. Neither party, nor the Landlord Parties and Tenant Parties, shall be liable to the other for any business interruption loss incurred, and each party waives any claims against the other party, and the Landlord Parties and Tenant Parties, for such business interruption loss from any cause whatsoever, including, but not limited to damage caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by the negligent acts of the other party at the Premises or the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, with respect to any damage to the Premises caused by Tenant, or Tenant Parties, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s all-risk property insurance deductible, not to exceed $25,000 per occurrence, within thirty (30) days following notice for such amount.

 

 

 

11.

Landlord's Repairs and Maintenance. Landlord shall repair, at its expense and without pass through as an Operating Expense, the structural soundness of the roof (which does not include the roof membrane, the costs of which will be included in Operating Expenses), the structural soundness of the foundation, and the structural soundness of the exterior walls of the Building, reasonable wear and tear and uninsured losses and damages caused by Tenant, its agents and contractors excluded. The term "walls" as used in this Paragraph shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors or overhead doors, store fronts, dock bumpers, dock plates or levelers, or office entries. Tenant shall promptly give Landlord written notice of any repair required by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph, after which Landlord shall have a reasonable opportunity to repair.

 

 

 

12.

Tenant's Repairs. At Tenant's expense as provided in Paragraph 6, Landlord shall maintain in good repair and condition the roof membrane, parking areas and other common areas of the Building, including, but not limited to driveways, alleys, landscape and grounds surrounding the Premises. Subject to Landlord's obligation in Paragraph 11, and subject to Paragraphs 10 and 16, Tenant, at its expense, shall repair, replace and maintain in good condition all areas, improvements and systems exclusively serving the Premises including, without limitation, dock and loading areas, dock doors, dock equipment, plumbing, water and sewer lines up to points of common connection, entries, doors, ceilings, windows, the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units serving the Premises (the “HVAC”), and interior walls, which repair and replacement obligations include capital repairs or capital replacements whose benefit may extend beyond the Expiration Date. The HVAC systems serving the Premises shall be maintained at Tenant's expense pursuant to maintenance service contracts entered into by Tenant in accordance with Exhibit E to this Lease. The scope of services and contractors under such maintenance contracts shall be reasonably approved by Landlord. If Tenant fails to perform any maintenance, repair, or replacement for which it is responsible, Landlord may perform such work and be reimbursed by Tenant within 15 days after written demand. Subject to Paragraphs 10 and 16, Tenant shall bear the cost of any repair or replacement to any part of the Building or Project that results from damage caused by Tenant, its agents, contractors, or invitees, or Tenant’s failure to maintain the Premises in accordance with this Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall warrant any repairs or replacements to the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems and equipment related thereto servicing the Premises for a period of 6 months from the Commencement Date; provided, however, that such warranty shall not be effective for any repairs or replacements necessitated due to the misuse of, lack of maintenance by, or damages caused by, Tenant, its employees, contractors, agents, subtenants, or invitees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall continue to be responsible for the maintenance of such heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems and equipment related thereto during such 6 -month period and thereafter during the Lease Term.

 

 

 

13.

Tenant-Made Alterations and Trade Fixtures.  Any alterations, additions, or improvements made to the Premises by, or on behalf of, Tenant ("Tenant-Made Alterations") shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent and approval of the plans, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned provided that such alteration does not materially affect the structure or the roof of the Building, modify the exterior of the Building, or modify the utility or mechanical systems of the Building or Project. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs in reviewing plans and specifications and for monitoring construction. Promptly after Tenant's written request, Landlord agrees to provide a good faith estimate of such out of pocket costs prior to incurring such costs (and shall not incur such costs if Tenant gives notice to Landlord that Tenant is withdrawing its request for such Tenant-Made Alterations). Landlord's right to review plans and specifications and to monitor construction shall be solely for its own benefit, and Landlord shall have no duty to see that such plans and specifications or construction comply with Legal Requirements. Tenant shall cause, at its expense, all Tenant-Made Alterations to: (a) be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner by contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord using only good grades of materials, and (b) comply with Landlord’s insurance and Legal Requirements. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the names and mailing addresses of all persons performing work or supplying materials, prior to beginning such construction, and Landlord may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to applicable law. Tenant shall cause its contractor to provide certificates of insurance for worker's compensation, including a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Landlord Parties, and commercial general liability in an amount equal to USD$2,000,000 from an insurance company reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, including a provision of additional insured status for the Landlord Parties, from any contractor completing work on Tenant-Made Alterations. Upon completion of any Tenant-Made Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord all final lien waivers from all contractors and subcontractors. Upon surrender of the Premises all Tenant-Made Alterations and any leasehold improvements constructed by Landlord or Tenant shall remain on the Premises as Landlord's property, except to the extent Landlord requires removal, in which case, at Tenant’s expense, Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such removal. Upon Tenant's prior written request, Landlord shall provide Tenant a list of which Tenant-Made Alterations Landlord will require Tenant to remove upon surrender of the Premises.

 

 

Without Landlord’s prior approval, Tenant may erect shelves, racking, bins, machinery and trade fixtures (collectively "Trade Fixtures") provided that such items do not overload the Premises, may be removed without damaging the floor slab or the Premises, and installation thereof complies with all Legal Requirements. Upon surrender of the Premises Tenant shall remove its Trade Fixtures and shall repair any damage to the floor slab or the Premises caused by such removal.

 

 

 

 

 

14.

Signs. Except as expressly provided herein, Tenant shall not install any decorations, flags, pennants, banners, exterior awnings, window or door lettering, placards, advertising media, lights or signs to the exterior of the Building, or interior window blinds, draperies, bars, or other window treatments which are visible from the exterior of the Building, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Prior to the surrender or vacation of the Premises, Tenant shall remove all signs and repair, paint, and/or replace the building facia surface damaged as a result. Tenant, at its expense, shall obtain all applicable governmental permits and approvals for any sign. Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost, place Tenant’s name on the monument sign existing as of the Effective Date.

 

 

 

15.

Parking. Tenant may park operable vehicles in areas of the Project designated for non-reserved parking and park operable vehicles and trailers overnight at the truck loading docks and designated truck and trailer parking areas for the Premises, provided there is no interference with the access of other tenants to the Building and Project parking lots and truck courts. Landlord may allocate parking spaces among Tenant and other tenants if Landlord reasonably determines such allocation is beneficial to the Project. Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing Tenant's parking rights against any third parties. If Tenant fails to comply with any of the parking requirements or otherwise creates a nuisance for other tenants at the Project as a result of Tenant’s parking or staging of vehicles (a “Parking Default”), and such Parking Default continues for more than 3 business days from Landlord’s demand to cease such Parking Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other rights, cause vehicles causing a Parking Default to be towed at Tenant’s cost without liability to Landlord, and Landlord may hire a parking management company to enforce Parking Defaults by Tenant, and Tenant Parties, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred with respect to such parking management no later than thirty (30) days from receipt of an invoice for such amount.

 

 

 

16.

Restoration.  If at any time during the Lease Term the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall notify Tenant within 60 days after such damage as to the amount of time Landlord reasonably estimates it will take to restore the Premises. If the restoration time is estimated to exceed 5 months, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease upon notice to the other party given no later than 30 days after Landlord's notice. If neither party elects to terminate this Lease, or if Landlord estimates that restoration will take 5 months or less, then Landlord shall, subject to delays arising from the collection of insurance proceeds or from events of Force Majeure, restore the Premises, excluding any Tenant-Made Alterations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may terminate this Lease if the Premises are damaged during the last year of the Lease Term and Landlord reasonably estimates that it will take more than one month to repair such damage. Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be abated for the period of repair and restoration commencing on the date of such casualty event in the proportion of the Premises, if any, which is not usable by Tenant bears to the total area of the Premises. Such abatement shall be the sole remedy of Tenant, and except as provided above, Tenant waives any right to terminate the Lease by reason of damage or casualty loss.

 

 

Notwithstanding the terms and conditions of this Paragraph, if the Premises are not restored by Landlord on, or prior to, the date which is the later of 5 months of the date of the casualty event (subject to Force Majeure and Tenant-caused delays) or the date Landlord estimated completion of the restoration as described above (subject to Force Majeure and Tenant-caused delays), Tenant may terminate the Lease upon thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord; provided, however, if Landlord completes the restoration in said thirty (30) day notice period, Tenant's notice of termination shall be null and void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

 

 

 

17.

Condemnation. If any part of the Premises or the Project are taken for any public or quasi‑public use under governmental law, ordinance, or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof (a "Taking" or "Taken"), and the Taking would materially interfere with or impair Landlord’s ownership or operation of the Building or Project, then upon written notice by Landlord this Lease shall terminate and Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be apportioned as of such date. If part of the Premises is Taken, and this Lease is not terminated as provided above, the Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be proportionately reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under the circumstances. In the event of any such Taking, Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire price or award from any such Taking without any payment to Tenant, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord Tenant's interest, if any, in such award. Without diminishing Landlord’s award, Tenant shall have the right to make a separate claim against the condemning authority (but not Landlord) for such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant for moving expenses and damage to Tenant's Trade Fixtures.

 

 

 

18.

Assignment and Subletting. Except as provided below, Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublease the Premises or any part thereof, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and any attempt to do so without Landlord’s consent shall be void and of no effect. Furthermore, Tenant shall not mortgage, or pledge, its leasehold interest in this Lease. It shall be reasonable for the Landlord to withhold, delay or condition consent to any assignment or sublease if the intended use of the Premises by the assignee or sublessee would impact the operations of other tenants, their use of the Project, or impair Landlord’s ability to re-lease other space in the Building or Project. Tenant shall provide to Landlord all information concerning the assignee or sublessee as Landlord may reasonably request, and any approved assignment or sublease shall be (i) expressly subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, and (ii) revocable if there is an uncured Event of Default, either at the time of notice or as of the effective date of the assignment or sublease. For purposes of this Paragraph, a transfer of the ownership interests controlling Tenant shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease unless such ownership interests are publicly traded. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant may assign or sublet the Premises, or any part thereof, to any entity controlling Tenant, controlled by Tenant or under common control with Tenant (a "Tenant Affiliate"), without the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord may charge Tenant USD$1,500 in connection with any assignment or sublease for which Landlord’s consent is required. This Lease shall be binding upon Tenant and its successors and permitted assigns. Upon Landlord's receipt of Tenant's written notice of a desire to assign or sublet the Premises, or any part thereof (other than to a Tenant Affiliate), Landlord may, by giving written notice to Tenant within 30 days, terminate this Lease as of the commencement date specified in Tenant’s notice, with respect to the space described in Tenant's notice. Tenant may withdraw its notice to sublease or assign by notifying Landlord within 10 days after Landlord has given Tenant notice of such termination, in which case the Lease shall not terminate but shall continue.

 

 

 

Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, Tenant and any guarantor of Tenant's obligations shall remain liable for the payment of the Base Rent, Operating Expenses, and any other amounts due, and compliance with all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (regardless of whether Landlord's approval has been obtained for any such assignment or subletting). In the event that the rent due by a sublessee or assignee exceeds the rental payable under this Lease, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord all such excess as additional rent within 10 days following receipt by Tenant.

 

 

 

If this Lease is assigned or if the Premises are subleased (whether in whole or in part), or if the Premises are occupied by anyone other than Tenant, then upon an Event of Default Landlord may collect rent from any occupant and, except to the extent set forth in the preceding paragraph, apply the amount collected to the next rent payable hereunder.

 

 

 

 

19.

Indemnification.  Except for the negligence, or willful misconduct, of the Landlord Parties, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Landlord Parties, and Landlord’s agents, employees, and contractors, from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonably incurred attorneys' fees) resulting from claims by third parties for injuries to any person and damage to or theft or misappropriation or loss of property occurring in or about the Project and arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or Tenant Parties, or from any activity, work, or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or Tenant Parties in or about the Project or due to any other act or omission of Tenant, its subtenants, assignees, invitees, employees, contractors and agents. The furnishing of insurance required hereunder shall not be deemed to limit Tenant's obligations under this Paragraph.

 

 

 

20.

Inspection, Data and Access. Landlord and its agents, representatives, and contractors may enter the Premises at reasonable times to inspect the Premises, for any business purpose, and, during the last year of the Lease Term, to show the Premises to prospective tenants. Landlord shall not enter the Premises for the purposes stated in this Paragraph without providing at least 24 hours’ telephonic notice to Tenant, unless an emergency circumstance exists. Landlord may erect signs on the Building stating the Premises are available to lease or that the Project is available for sale. Landlord may grant easements, make public dedications, designate and modify common areas and create restrictions affecting the Project (collectively “Encumbrances”), provided that such Encumbrances do not materially interfere with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, and Tenant agrees to execute any instruments as may be necessary for such Encumbrances. Upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises for the purpose of the installation and maintenance of Devices, and the collection of Data from the Devices during the Lease Term for the purpose of supporting the effective management of Landlord’s building portfolio, provided that such installation and maintenance of the Devices and collection of Data does not materially interfere with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises. Landlord shall not sell or disclose, for commercial purposes, the Data in any way that identifies Tenant, Tenant’s equipment, or Tenant’s personnel. Landlord may disclose Data to the extent required by applicable law, for benchmarking purposes, or in order to provide, maintain, improve, and keep in good working order the properties of Landlord, Prologis, Inc. and its affiliates. Landlord shall own the Data collected from such Devices and maintain as confidential except that Landlord may use for and disclose to governmental and regulatory bodies to fulfill Landlord’s statutory obligations only. Tenant shall not tamper with or interfere with the Devices. The term “Devices” as used herein shall mean any sensors, computers or electronic devices, systems and application software, peripherals, meters, or other data collection devices installed and owned by Landlord. Devices shall not include cameras, video, or voice recording devices. The term “Data” as used herein shall mean any information associated with, created or generated by, or transmitting through a Device. Landlord shall not use the Devices for the collection of personal or employee related Data; Tenant’s business and operational Data, or for the purpose of tracking, or identifying, people, equipment, or inventory of Tenant at the Premises

 

 

 

21.

Quiet Enjoyment. Absent any Event of Default subject to the terms of this Lease, Tenant shall have peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Premises against any person claiming by, through or under Landlord.

 

 

 

22.

Surrender.  Upon the Expiration Date or earlier termination of Tenant's right of possession, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as received, ordinary wear and tear, casualty loss and condemnation covered by Paragraphs 16 and 17 excepted and otherwise in accordance with the Move Out Conditions attached hereto. Any Trade Fixtures, Tenant-Made Alterations and property not removed by Tenant as required shall either, at Landlord’s election: (i) become the property of Landlord, or (ii) be deemed abandoned in which case it may be stored, removed, and disposed of by Landlord at Tenant's expense, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any damages resulting from Landlord's retention and disposition of such property. Any outstanding Tenant obligations under this Lease shall survive the termination of the Lease Term, including without limitation, indemnity obligations, payment of Operating Expenses, and all obligations concerning the condition and repair of the Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event Tenant fails to surrender the Premises in the condition as provided herein, upon the expiration, or earlier termination, of this Lease, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to complete such modifications, maintenance, repairs, and replacements on Tenant’s behalf, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such costs as estimated by independent contractors, along with a management fee equal to five (5%) of such costs, no later than thirty (30) days from receipt of demand.

 

 

 

23.

Holding Over. If Tenant retains possession of the Premises after the Expiration Date, such possession shall be subject to immediate termination by Landlord, and all terms of this Lease shall be applicable during such holdover period except (i) any expansion, renewal, or similar right or option, and (ii) Base Rent for the holdover period shall be one hundred fifty percent (150%) the amount of the then-effective Base Rent. All other amounts payable under this Lease shall continue under the terms of this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall be liable for all damages incurred by Landlord as a result of such holding over. Holding over by Tenant (with or without consent of Landlord) shall not extend this Lease except as otherwise expressly provided, and this Paragraph shall not be construed as consent for Tenant to retain possession of the Premises. For purposes of this Paragraph, “possession of the Premises” shall continue until Landlord has complete control over the Premises, all keys have been delivered, and Tenant has fulfilled all required obligations upon termination of the Lease concerning the condition and repair of the Premises.

 

 

 

24.

Events of Default. Each of the following shall be an event of default ("Event of Default") by Tenant:

 

 

a)

Tenant fails to pay any installment of Base Rent, Operating Expenses, or any other payment required when due, and such failure shall continue for a period of 5 days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant that such payment was due; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be obligated to provide written notice of such failure more than 2 times in any consecutive 12-month period, and the failure of Tenant to pay any subsequent installment of Base Rent or any other payment required herein when due in any consecutive 12-month period shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease without the requirement of notice or opportunity to cure; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under applicable law.

 

 

b)

Tenant or any guarantor or surety of Tenant's obligations hereunder shall (i) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) commence any case, proceeding or other action seeking to have an order for relief entered on its behalf as a debtor or to adjudicate it as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or of any substantial part of its property (collectively a "proceeding for relief"); (iii) become the subject of any proceeding for relief which is not dismissed within 60 days of its filing or entry; or (iv) die or suffer a legal disability (if Tenant, guarantor, or surety is an individual) or be dissolved or otherwise fail to maintain its legal existence (if Tenant, guarantor or surety is a corporation, partnership or other entity).

 

 

c)

(i) Any insurance required to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Lease is cancelled or terminated, expires, or is reduced or materially changed (except, in each case, as permitted in this Lease) or (ii) Tenant fails to timely deliver to Landlord any certificate of insurance as required under Paragraph 10 and such failure continues for ten (10) days following written notice from Landlord to Tenant regarding such failure to provide such certificate.

 

 

d)

Tenant vacates the Premises and fails to make arrangements reasonably acceptable to Landlord to ensure that (i) Tenant's insurance for the Premises will not be voided or cancelled, (ii) the Premises will be secured, and (iii) the Premises will be properly maintained, including maintaining utility services. Tenant shall inspect the Premises at least monthly and report to Landlord in the event the condition of the Premises has adversely changed.

 

 

e)

Tenant assigns, subleases or transfers Tenant’s interest in this Lease except as permitted in this Lease.

 

 

f)

Tenant fails to discharge any lien placed upon the Premises or Building as a result of some action or inaction by Tenant within 30 days after Tenant receives notice that such lien or encumbrance is filed against the Premises or Building.

 

 

g)

Tenant fails to comply with any provision of this Lease other than those specifically referred to in this Paragraph, and such default shall continue for more than 30 days after Landlord has given Tenant written notice of such default except as otherwise provided in this Lease (said notice being in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required as a prerequisite to a forcible entry and detainer or similar action for possession of the Premises), provided, however, that Tenant shall not be in default under the circumstances described in this Paragraph 24 if Tenant has made diligent efforts to cure such default within the thirty (30) day period described therein, and thereafter proceeds continuously and diligently to cure such default within a commercially reasonable time.

 

Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph of the Lease shall satisfy the requirements for notice under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, and Landlord shall not be required to give any additional notice in order to be entitled to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding.

 

 

 

25.

Landlord's Remedies. Upon each occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default continues, Landlord may at any time elect to: (i) terminate this Lease or Tenant's right of possession, (but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided), and/or (ii) pursue any other remedies at law or in equity. Upon the termination of this Lease or termination of Tenant's right of possession, Landlord may, without formal demand or notice of any kind, re-enter the Premises by summary dispossession proceedings or any other action or proceeding authorized by law and remove Tenant, and all persons and property therefrom. If Landlord re-enters the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to keep in place and use, or remove and store, all property at the Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event Landlord delivers three notices of an Event of Default under this Lease in any twelve month period, any subsequent Event of Default under the Lease shall be deemed an immediate Event of Default, and Tenant shall have no cure period as otherwise provided in this Lease, and Landlord may immediately pursue all of its remedies as provided in this Lease.

 

 

Except as otherwise provided in the next paragraph, if Tenant breaches this Lease and abandoned the Premises prior to the end of the term hereof, or if Tenant's right to possession is terminated by Landlord because of an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease, this Lease shall terminate. Upon such termination, Landlord may recover from Tenant the following, as provided in Section 1951.2 of the Civil Code of California: (i) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Base Rent, Operating Expenses, and other charges under this Lease that had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the reasonable value of the unpaid Base Rent, Operating Expenses, and other charges under this Lease which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award by which the reasonable value of the unpaid Base Rent, Operating Expenses, and other charges under this Lease for the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or that in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. As used herein, the following terms are defined: (a) The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in Sections (i) and (ii) is computed by allowing interest at the lesser of 12 percent per annum or the maximum lawful rate. The "worth at the time of award" of the amount referred to in Section (iii) is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent; (b) The "time of award" as used in clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) above is the date on which judgment is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction; (c) The "reasonable value" of the amount referred to in clause (ii) above is computed by determining the mathematical product of (1) the "reasonable annual rental value" (as defined herein) and (2) the number of years, including fractional parts thereof, between the date of termination and the time of award. The "reasonable value" of the amount referred to in clause (iii) is computed by determining the mathematical product of (1) the annual Base Rent, Operating Expenses, and other charges under this Lease and (2) the number of years including fractional parts thereof remaining in the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of award. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the term “detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease” includes, without limitation, the value of the unamortized portion of any abated or free rent given to Tenant.

 

 

Even though Tenant has breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession, and Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover rent as it becomes due. This remedy is intended to be the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4, and the following provision from such Civil Code Section is hereby repeated: "The Lessor has the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has right to sublet or assign subject only to reasonable limitations)." Tenant shall immediately pay any such deficiency upon demand and Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any sums as they become due. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect in writing to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.

 

 

Landlord’s exercise of any remedies shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of the Premises and/or a termination of this Lease by Landlord. Any law, usage, or custom to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord shall have the right at all times to enforce the provisions of this Lease in strict accordance with the terms hereof; and the failure of Landlord at any time to enforce its rights under this Lease strictly in accordance the terms hereof shall not be construed as having created a custom or manner in any way contrary to the specific terms, provisions, and covenants of this Lease or as having modified the same. Tenant and Landlord further agree that forbearance or waiver by Landlord to enforce its rights pursuant to this Lease or at law or in equity, shall not be a waiver of Landlord's right to enforce one or more of its rights in connection with any subsequent Event of Default. Receipt by Landlord of rent or other payment with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless agreed in writing and signed by Landlord. To the greatest extent permitted by law, Tenant waives all right of redemption in case the Lease is terminated or Tenant shall be dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge. In the event Landlord exercises self-help, or lock-out, remedies as provided by law, Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for any business loss or business interruption which Tenant may incur and any property remaining on the Premises shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant and Landlord may store, remove, or disposed of such property at Tenant's expense, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any damages resulting from Landlord's retention and disposition of such property. The terms "enter," "re-enter," "entry" or "re-entry," as used in this Lease, are not restricted to their technical legal meanings.

 

 

 

26.

Tenant's Remedies/Limitation of Liability. Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations within 30 days after written notice from Tenant specifying such failure (unless such performance will, due to the nature of the obligation, require more than 30 days, then after such period of time as is reasonably necessary). If such default by Landlord shall occur, Tenant may pursue any legal or equitable remedy for which it is entitled. All obligations of Landlord shall be construed as covenants, not conditions; and, except as may be otherwise provided in this Lease, Tenant may not terminate this Lease for breach of Landlord's obligations hereunder. All obligations of Landlord under this Lease will be binding upon Landlord only during the period of its ownership of the Premises and not thereafter. The term "Landlord" in this Lease shall mean only the then current owner of the Premises, and in the event of a transfer of ownership of the Premises, such transferring owner shall be released and discharged from all obligations of Landlord thereafter accruing, but such obligations shall be binding during the Lease Term upon each new owner for the duration of such owner's ownership. Any liability of Landlord under this Lease shall be limited solely to its interest in the Building, and in no event shall any personal liability or recourse to any other property or assets of Landlord be asserted against Landlord in connection with this Lease.

 

 

 

27.

Subordination. Without the necessity of any further instrument or act of Tenant, this Lease, and Tenant's interest and rights hereunder, are, and shall be, subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of any existing or future first mortgage on the Building or any ground lease which the Building is subject to, and all amendments, modifications, assignments and extensions thereof. Tenant agrees, at the election of the holder of any such mortgage, or lessor for any ground lease, to attorn to any such holder or lessor. Tenant agrees upon demand to execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments, confirming such subordination and such instruments of attornment as shall be requested by any such holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such holder may at any time subordinate its mortgage to this Lease, without Tenant's consent, by notice in writing to Tenant. The term "mortgage" whenever used in this Lease shall be deemed to include deeds of trust, security assignments and any other encumbrances, and any reference to the "holder" of a mortgage shall be deemed to include the beneficiary under a deed of trust.

 

 

 

28.

Mechanic's Liens. Tenant has no express or implied authority to create or place any lien or encumbrance of any kind upon the Building, the Premises or this Lease. Tenant covenants and agrees that it will save and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, cost or expense based on or arising out of claims or liens asserted against the leasehold estate, the interest of Landlord in the Premises, or under this Lease. Tenant shall give Landlord immediate written notice of any lien or encumbrance placed against the Premises and cause such lien or encumbrance to be discharged, or bonded over in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, within 30 days of the filing or recording thereof.

 

 

 

29.

Estoppel Certificates. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord or Landlord’s designee, within 20 days after Landlord’s request, an estoppel certificate containing customary provisions.  No cure or grace period provided in this Lease shall apply to Tenant's obligations to timely deliver an estoppel certificate.

 

 

 

30.

Environmental Requirements. Except for Hazardous Materials contained in: (i) products used by Tenant in de minimis quantities for ordinary cleaning and office purposes; (ii) forklift propane tanks, and (iii) products stored and/or distributed by Tenant in their original, sealed, and unopened containers, Tenant shall not bring, permit, or cause any party to bring any Hazardous Material onto the Project, or transport, store, use, generate, manufacture, or dispose of any Hazardous Material in, on, or about the Project without Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall: (v) operate its business at the Project in strict compliance with all Environmental Requirements, including complying with all reporting obligations imposed by applicable Environmental Requirements in the capacity as “operator” of Tenant’s “facility” and the “owner” (as such terms are used in applicable Environmental Requirements) of all Hazardous Materials brought onto the Project by Tenant, or any Tenant Parties (as defined below), and the wastes, by-products, or residues generated, resulting, or produced therefrom, or extracted from the Project; (w) promptly provide copies of any claims, reports, complaints, notices, letters, warnings or asserted violations relating in any way to Hazardous Materials at the Project which Tenant receives or sends; (x) promptly and diligently remediate in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Landlord any Hazardous Materials released on, or from, the Project by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, subtenants, licensees, or invitees (collectively, the “Tenant Parties”); (y) promptly notify Landlord in writing of any spill, release, discharge, or disposal of any Hazardous Material in, on, or under the Project; and (z) promptly complete and deliver any disclosure or certification reasonably requested by Landlord concerning Tenant's, or any Tenant Parties’, transportation, storage, use, generation, manufacture or release of Hazardous Materials in, on, or about the Project. Tenant shall be strictly liable to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s, or any Tenant Parties’, transportation, storage, use, generation, manufacturing, disposal, or release of Hazardous Materials at the Project without regard to the fault or negligence of any other party. No cure or grace period provided in this Lease shall apply to Tenant's obligations to promptly commence and diligently pursue its remediation obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Paragraph.   The term "Environmental Requirements" means all applicable present and future statutes, regulations, ordinances, rules, codes, judgments, orders, or other similar enactments of any governmental authority or agency regulating or relating to health, safety, or environmental conditions, including, without limitation, the following: the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act; the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act; and all state and local counterparts thereto, and any regulations or policies promulgated or issued thereunder. The term "Hazardous Materials" means and includes any substance, material, waste, pollutant, or contaminant regulated by any Environmental Requirements, asbestos, radioactive materials, and petroleum (including crude oil or any fraction thereof, natural gas liquids, liquefied natural gas, or synthetic gas usable for fuel or mixtures of natural gas and such synthetic gas).

 

 

Tenant shall have no liability of any kind to Landlord as to Hazardous Materials on the Project which arise prior to the Commencement Date, or during the Lease Term, which were caused or permitted by any party other than Tenant, or any Tenant Parties.

 

 

Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from and against any and all losses (including diminution in value of the Premises or the Project, and loss of rental income from the Project), claims, demands, actions, suits, damages (including punitive damages), costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney, consultant, and expert fees) which are brought or recoverable against, or suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of: (i) any release of Hazardous Materials on, or from, the Project by Tenant, or any Tenant Parties, or (ii) Tenant’s, or any Tenant Parties’, breach of, or noncompliance with, this Paragraph, regardless of whether Tenant had knowledge of such noncompliance. Tenant’s obligations under this Paragraph shall survive the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

 

Landlord (including Landlord’s consultants, lenders, or designees) shall, at reasonable intervals and upon at least 24 hours prior notice to the Tenant, have access to, and the right to inspect and perform tests at the Premises to assess the condition of the Premises, or determine Tenant's compliance with this Paragraph, or any applicable Environmental Requirements. If such inspection reveals noncompliance by Tenant, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the reasonable cost of such inspection and testing. Landlord's receipt of a ‘clean’ environmental assessment shall in no way release Tenant from its obligations under this Paragraph or constitute a waiver by Landlord of its rights and remedies herein.

 

 

 

31.

Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall comply with all rules and regulations reasonably established by Landlord covering use of the Premises and the Project, provided to Tenant in writing from time to time. The current rules and regulations are attached hereto as Exhibit B. Landlord shall not have any liability or obligation for the breach of any rules or regulations by other tenants in the Project.

 

 

 

32.

Security Service. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, while Landlord may patrol the Project, Landlord is not providing any security services and that Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for, and Tenant waives any claim against Landlord with respect to, any breach of security or loss by theft or any other damage suffered or incurred by Tenant.

 

 

 

33.

Force Majeure. Except for monetary obligations, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be responsible for delays in the performance of its obligations hereunder caused by labor disputes, acts of God, epidemic or pandemic, inability to obtain labor or materials, governmental restrictions or regulations or delay in issuance of permits, enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion, casualty, and other causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be ("Force Majeure").

 

 

 

34.

Entire Agreement. This Lease constitutes the entire agreement of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any prior agreements, promises, negotiations, or representations are superseded by this Lease. This Lease may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto.

 

 

 

35.

Severability. If any clause of this Lease is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties that such clause be replaced with a valid clause of similar meaning and that the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected.

 

 

 

36.

Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has dealt with no broker, agent or other person in connection with this transaction and that no broker, agent or other person brought about this transaction, other than the Landlord Broker and Tenant Broker, if any, set forth in Paragraph 1 of this Lease, and each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any claims by any other broker, agent or other person claiming a commission or other form of compensation by virtue of having dealt with the indemnifying party with regard to this leasing transaction.

Exhibit F

: CONSTRUCTION (Allowance)

 

 

(a)         Landlord agrees to perform, at Landlord’s sole cost, the following improvements (the "Initial Improvements"):

 

(i) Labs and additional office pursuant to scope, plans, and bid attached hereto as Exhibit F-1; provided, however, that in no event shall the Initial Improvements include any “alternates” identified on such Exhibit F-1; and

 

(ii) Replacement of all warn or damaged carpet. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that they have walked the Premises and have agreed on locations of replacement.

 

Landlord and Tenant hereby agree and acknowledge that the estimated cost of the Initial Improvements is $1,256,600 (“Initial Improvements Amount”). Tenant shall pay for the costs in excess of the Initial Improvement Amount to the extent resulting from any changes to the scope of the Initial Improvements requested by Tenant pursuant to Subsection (b) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall be responsible, at Landlord’s sole cost, for any changes to the Building or Project made necessary by applicable Legal Requirements and resulting from the performance of the Initial Improvements.

 

 

Landlord shall collect a construction management fee equal to 5% of the cost of the Initial Improvements, payable by Tenant within 30 days following receipt of Landlord's invoice, which fee shall be calculated based upon the scope of work of the Initial Improvements as described herein, taking into account costs generally payable for similar services within the market area in which the Project is located.

 

 

(b)         If Tenant shall desire any changes to the scope of the Initial Improvements, Tenant shall advise Landlord in writing and Landlord shall determine whether such changes can be made in a reasonable and feasible manner. All costs of reviewing any requested changes, all costs of making changes to the Building or Project made necessary by applicable Legal Requirements to the extent resulting from such changes, and all costs of making any changes to the scope of the Initial Improvements which Tenant may request and which Landlord may agree to shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense and shall be paid to Landlord upon demand and before execution of the change order.

 

 

(c)         Landlord shall proceed with and complete the construction of the Initial Improvements. As soon as such improvements have been Substantially Completed, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the date that the Initial Improvements were Substantially Completed. The Initial Improvements shall be deemed substantially completed ("Substantially Completed" or “Substantial Completion”) when, in the opinion of the construction manager (whether an employee or agent of Landlord or a third party construction manager) ("Construction Manager"), the Initial Improvements are substantially completed except for punch list items which do not prevent in any material way the use of the Initial Improvements for the purposes for which they were intended. In the event Tenant, its employees, agents, or contractors cause construction of such improvements to be delayed, the date of Substantial Completion shall be deemed to be the date that, in the opinion of the Construction Manager, Substantial Completion would have occurred if such delays had not taken place. Tenant shall be solely responsible for delays caused by Tenant's request for any changes in the plans, Tenant's request for long lead items or Tenant's interference with the construction of the Initial Improvements, and such delays shall not cause a deferral of the Commencement Date. After the date the Initial Improvements are Substantially Completed Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of the Initial Improvements. In the event of any dispute as to the Initial Improvements the certificate of the Construction Manager shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

 

(d)         Tenant’s failure to take possession of or to occupy the Premises shall not serve to relieve Tenant of its obligations arising on the Commencement Date or to delay the payment of rent by Tenant. Subject to applicable Legal Requirements, Tenant shall be allowed to install its tenant improvements, Trade Fixtures or other property on the Premises during the final stages of Landlord’s construction provided that Tenant does not interfere with completion of construction or cause any labor dispute. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from any loss or damage to such property, and all liability, loss, or damage arising from any injury to the Project or the property of Landlord, its contractors, subcontractors, or materialmen, and any death or personal injury to any person or persons arising out of such installations, unless any such loss, damage, liability, death, or personal injury was caused by Landlord's negligence. Any such occupancy or installation of tenant improvements or Trade Fixtures in the Premises shall be in accordance with the provisions governing Tenant‑Made Alterations and Trade Fixtures in the Lease, and shall be subject to Tenant providing to Landlord satisfactory evidence of insurance for personal injury and property damage related to such installations and satisfactory payment arrangements with respect to installations permitted hereunder. Delay in putting Tenant in possession of the Premises shall not serve to extend the Lease Term or to make Landlord liable for any damages arising therefrom.

Exhibit G

: ONE RENEWAL OPTION AT MARKET

 

 

 

(a)         Provided that as of the time of the giving of the Extension Notice and the Commencement Date of the Extension Term, (x) Tenant is the Tenant originally named herein, or a Tenant Affiliate as defined herein, (y) Tenant continues to lease the entire Premises initially demised under this Lease and any space added to the Premises, and (z) no Event of Default exists or would exist but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both; then Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease Term for an additional term of 60 months (such additional term is hereinafter called the "Extension Term") commencing on the day following the expiration of the Lease Term (hereinafter referred to as the "Commencement Date of the Extension Term"). Tenant shall give Landlord notice (hereinafter called the "Extension Notice") of its election to extend the term of the Lease Term at least 6 months, but not more than 12 months, prior to the scheduled expiration date of the Lease Term.

 

(b)         The Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the Extension Term shall be the then prevailing market rate for comparable space in the Project and comparable buildings in the vicinity of the Project, taking into account the size of the Lease, the length of the renewal term, market escalations and the credit of Tenant. The Base Rent shall not be reduced by reason of any costs or expenses saved by Landlord by reason of Landlord's not having to find a new tenant for such premises (including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, costs of improvements, rent concessions or lost rental income during any vacancy period). In the event that, following good faith negotiations and commercially reasonable efforts on the part of each party, Landlord and Tenant fail to reach an agreement on such rental rate and execute the Amendment (defined below) at least 4 months prior to the expiration of the Lease, then Tenant's exercise of the renewal option shall be deemed withdrawn and the Lease shall terminate on its original expiration date.

 

(c)         The determination of Base Rent does not reduce the Tenant's obligation to pay or reimburse Landlord for Operating Expenses and other reimbursable items as set forth in the Lease, and Tenant shall reimburse and pay Landlord as set forth in the Lease with respect to such Operating Expenses and other items with respect to the Premises during the Extension Term without regard to any cap on such expenses set forth in the Lease.

 

(d)         Except for the Base Rent as determined above, Tenant's occupancy of the Premises during the Extension Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as are in effect immediately prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term; provided, however, Tenant shall have no further right to any allowances, credits or abatements or any options to expand, contract, renew or extend the Lease.

 

(e)         If Tenant does not give the Extension Notice within the period set forth in paragraph (a) above, Tenant's right to extend the Lease Term shall automatically terminate. Time is of the essence as to the giving of the Extension Notice.

 

(f)         Landlord shall have no obligation to refurbish or otherwise improve the Premises for the Extension Term. The Premises shall be tendered on the Commencement Date of the Extension Term in "as-is" condition.

 

(g)         If the Lease is extended for the Extension Term, then Landlord shall prepare and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease confirming the extension of the Lease Term and the other provisions applicable thereto (the "Amendment").

 

(h)         If Tenant exercises its right to extend the term of the Lease for the Extension Term pursuant to this Exhibit, the term "Lease Term" as used in the Lease, shall be construed to include, when practicable, the Extension Term except as provided in (d) above.
