Page 3 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

3.2.4       Obligation to Remediate. In the event Hazardous Materials are discovered upon, in, under, or migrated from the Premises, Building, Land, or Park Common Areas, and the applicable governmental agency or entity having jurisdiction over the Premises requires the removal of such Hazardous Materials arising out of or related to the use or occupancy of the Premises, Building, Land, or Park Common Areas by Tenant or its agents, affiliates, customers, employees, business associates or assigns, but not those of its predecessors, Tenant shall at its sole cost and expense remove such Hazardous Materials, and perform any remediation or other action required by the applicable governmental agency or reasonably required by Landlord necessary to make full economic use of the Project.

Tenant immediately shall notify Landlord in writing of: (i) any spill, release, discharge, or disposal of any Hazardous Material in, on, or under the Premises, the Building, the Land, or the Park Common Areas, or any portion thereof; (ii) any enforcement, cleanup, removal or other governmental or regulatory action instituted, contemplated, or threatened pursuant to any Hazardous Material Laws; (iii) any claim made or threatened by any person against Tenant, the Premises, the Building, the Land, or the Park Common Areas relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery, compensation, loss or injury resulting from or claimed to result from any Hazardous Materials; and (iv) any reports made to any environmental agency arising out of or in connection with any Hazardous Materials in, on or removed from the Premises, the Building, the Land, or the Park Common Areas, including any complaints, notices, warnings, reports or asserted violations in connection therewith.

3.2.5       Survival. Tenant’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations contained in this Section 3.2 shall constitute a materia! default under the Lease.

3.3         OFAC Compliance:

 

3.3.1       Tenant represents and warrants that (i) Tenant and each person or entity owning an interest in Tenant is (a) not currently identified on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, executive order or regulation (collectively, the “List”), and (b) is not a person or entity with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited to engage in transactions by any trade embargo, economic sanction, or other prohibition of United States law, regulation, or Executive Order of the President of the United States, (ii) none of the funds or other assets of Tenant constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Embargoed Person (as hereinafter defined), (iii) no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in Tenant (whether directly or indirectly), (iv) none of the funds of Tenant have been derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment in Tenant is prohibited by law or that the Lease is in violation of law, and (v) Tenant has implemented procedures, and will consistently apply those procedures to ensure the foregoing representations and warranties remain true and correct at all times.

 

3.3.2       Tenant covenants and agrees (i) to comply with all requirements of law relating to money laundering, anti-terrorism, trade embargos and economic sanctions, now or hereafter in effect, (ii) to immediately notify Landlord in writing if any of the representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this section or the preceding section are no longer true or have been breached or if Tenant has a reasonable basis to believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached, (iii) to not use funds from any “Prohibited Person” (as such term is defined in the September 24, 2001 Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism) to make any payment due to Landlord under the Lease, and (iv) at the request of Landlord, to provide such information as may be requested by Landlord to determine Tenant’s compliance with the terms hereof.

 

3.3.3       Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s inclusion on the List at any time during the Lease Term shall be a material default of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not permit the Premises or any portion thereof to be used or occupied by any person or entity on the List or by any Embargoed Person (on a permanent, temporary or transient basis), and any such use or occupancy of the Premises by any such person or entity shall be a material default of the Lease.

Costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in operating, managing and maintaining the Project, which are incurred exclusively for the benefit of specific tenants of the Building will be billed accordingly and will not be included within the Operating Expenses. Landlord, however, may cause any or all of said services to be provided by an independent contractor(s).

 

5.1.6       Cost of capital improvements, structural repairs or replacements made to the Project in order to conform to changes subsequent to the date of this Lease in any applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, or orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Project or any such capital improvements, structural repairs or replacements designed primarily to reduce Operating Expenses. Expenditures for the foregoing, and for tools and equipment referred to in Section 5.1.5, may be amortized in accordance with GAAP over the useful life of such structural repair or replacement, or tools and equipment, as determined by Landlord. In the event Tenant is obligated to pay for a capital repair or replacement under the Lease (or a portion thereof), Tenant will pay its proportionate share based upon the useful life of the repaired or replaced item.

Page 6 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

5.3.1       If Landlord receives a refund of Taxes then Landlord shall credit such refund, net of any professional fees and costs incurred by Landlord to obtain the same, against the Taxes for the Operating Year to which the refund is applicable. The amount of the Taxes for the Base Year shall reflect any refund resulting from any appeal, protest or other action by Landlord contesting the amount claimed by the governmental authorities and any statements by Landlord as to the amount of Base Year Taxes shall be tentative until any such contest is completed.

 

Section 6.            PAYMENT OF OPERATING EXPENSES:

 

6.1         Operating Year: As used in this Section 6, the term “Operating Year” shall mean each calendar year of the Lease Term and in the event this Lease begins or ends on any date other than the first day of the calendar year, the calculations, costs and payments referred to herein shall be prorated as provided in Section 34.10.

 

6.2         Tenant’s Percentage: Throughout the entire Lease Term, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, Tenant’s Percentage of the increase in Operating Expenses and Taxes for the Project, if any, over the Operating Expenses and Taxes for the applicable Base Year as defined in Sections 1.18 and 1.19 of the Basic Lease Information. The Base Year Operating Expenses and Taxes shall be increased (i.e. “grossed up”) to the amount that Landlord would have incurred had the Building been at least ninety percent (90%) occupied during the entirety of the Base Year. Tenant’s Percentage of the increase in Operating Expenses and Taxes for the Project for each Operating Year shall be calculated as follows: the Operating Expenses and Taxes for each Operating Year less the Operating Expenses and Taxes for the Base Year shall be multiplied by Tenant’s Percentage. If in any Operating Year Tenant occupies the Premises for less than the full Operating Year, then the product from the foregoing multiplication shall be multiplied by the percentage of the Operating Year in which Tenant occupied the Premises. “Tenant’s Percentage” shall mean a percentage, the numerator of which is the number of rentable square feet of the Premises and the denominator of which is the total number of rentable square feet of the Building, whether or not such space is actually rented. Tenant’s Percentage (as specified in the Basic Lease Information, and adjusted as provided herein) may be changed from time to time to reflect any change in the total rentable square footage in the Building. All calculations of rentable area shall be on the basis as originally used to determine the rentable area shown in the Basic Lease Information.

 

During the periods when the Building is not fully occupied, Landlord shall reasonably adjust Operating Expenses to reflect the costs that would normally have been incurred had the Building been fully occupied for the entire period and the Building had been fully assessed for property tax purposes. The Building shall be considered fully occupied when occupancy reached ninety percent (90%). If during any Operating Year the tenant of any space in the Building performs work or services thereon pursuant to a written agreement between Landlord and such tenant in lieu of having Landlord perform the same and the cost thereof would have been included in Landlord’s Operating Expenses, then in any such event(s), at Landlord’s option, the Operating Expenses for such Operating Year shall be adjusted to reflect the Operating Expenses that would have been incurred if Landlord had performed such work or services, as the case may be. In the event Operating Expenses are decreased as a result of extraordinary charges then the Base Year Operating Expenses shall be correspondingly reduced. An extraordinary change shall mean changes unrelated to the normal inflation and deflation of the costs of goods and services making up the Operating Expenses, such as a change in the rentable area contained in the Building resulting from condemnation, casualty, demolition, alteration or construction of the additional improvements. Any decrease in Taxes shall be considered an extraordinary change if due to any statewide property tax limitation or reduction legislation. If the total rentable area of the Building changes, Landlord shall reasonably determine a revised Tenant’s Percentage reflecting the change as of the date of such change.

 

6.3         Written Statement of Estimate: For each Operating Year during the Lease Term after the Base Year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a written statement setting forth Tenant’s Percentage of the estimated increase in Operating Expenses and Taxes for the next Operating Year. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent commencing on January 1 of the Operating Year, and thereafter on the first day of each calendar month, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount of Tenant’s Percentage of such increase as shown in Landlord’s written statement. In the event Landlord delivers the written statement late, Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant’s Percentage of the estimated increase in Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding Operating Year until Landlord furnishes the written statement, at which time Tenant shall pay the amount of any excess of Tenant’s Percentage for the expired portion of the current Operating Year over Tenant’s actual payments during such time and any excess payments by Tenant shall be credited to the next due payment of Rent from Tenant. The late delivery of any written statement by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s obligation to pay its Pro Rate Share of the increase in Operating Expenses, nor subject Landlord to any liability, but Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to deliver such written statements of Operating Expenses as soon as reasonably possible.

 

Page 7 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

6.4         Reestimations: At any time from time to time during the Lease Term, Landlord may furnish Tenant with written notice of a reestimation of the annual Operating Expenses and Taxes to reflect more accurately Landlord’s most recent estimate of the current Operating Expenses and Taxes. Commencing with the first day of the calendar quarter next succeeding delivery of such notice to Tenant, and continuing on the first day of each calendar month during the Term (until subsequently reestimated), Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant’s share of the estimated Operating Expenses and Taxes, as reestimated.

 

6.5         Annual Adjustments: Within one hundred eighty (180) days following the end of each calendar year during the Lease Term, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant an itemized statement certified as correct by Landlord, setting forth the total Operating Expenses and Taxes for the preceding calendar year, the amount of Tenant’s share of such Operating Expenses and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such calendar year (“Operating Statement”). If Tenant’s share of the actual Operating Expenses and Taxes for such year exceeds the payment so made by Tenant, based on Landlord’s estimate, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within thirty (30) days after receipt of said statement. If said payments by Tenant, based on Landlord’s estimate, exceed Tenant’s share of the actual Operating Expenses and Taxes, Landlord will credit the amount of such overpayment against Tenant’s next Operating Expense and Tax payment due; or, if the Lease has expired or terminated, Landlord will refund such amount to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of such estimate, subject to set off by Landlord against any sums then due Landlord by Tenant.

 

6.6         Tenant Examination: In addition, Tenant may, upon at least five days advance written notice to Landlord, and during business hours, may examine any invoices, receipts, canceled checks, vouchers or other instruments used to support the figures shown on the Operating Statement; provided, however, that Tenant shall only be entitled to such an examination once in each Operating Year, and the examination shall not be conducted by anyone who is engaged on a contingent fee basis to represent Tenant or who is a competitor of Landlord. Property managers and commercial building owners shall be deemed competitors of Landlord. The person conducting the examination on behalf of Tenant shall enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. In the event the examination discovers an overcharge in excess of five percent (5%) of the Operating Expense payments during the Operating Year covered by the examination, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the actual out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Tenant due to the examination. In the event the examination fails to discover an overcharge in excess of five percent (5%) of the Operating Expense payments during the Operating Year covered by the examination, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual costs incurred by Landlord due to the examination.

 

6.7         Disputes: Each such statement given by Landlord pursuant to this section shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless within sixty (60) days after the receipt of such statement Tenant shall notify Landlord that it disputes the correctness of the statement, specifying the particular respects in which the statement is claimed to be incorrect, if such disputes shall not have been settled by agreement, either party, within sixty (60) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice, may pursue its available legal remedies. Tenant hereby agrees that a dispute over the statement or any good faith error by Landlord in interpreting or applying Section 5 or in calculating the amounts in the statement shall not be a breach of this Lease by Landlord. If any legal proceeding over the statement is resolved against Landlord, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Landlord shall not be liable for any consequential damages, and pending the determination of such dispute, Tenant, within ten (10) days of receipt of such statement, shall pay Additional Rent in accordance with the statement, without prejudice to Tenant’s positions. If the dispute shall be determined in Tenant’s favor, Landlord shall forthwith pay to Tenant the amount of Tenant’s overpayment of Additional Rents resulting from compliance with the statement.

 

6.8         Payment: If an Operating Year ends after the expiration or termination of this Lease, the Additional Rent in respect thereof payable under this section shall be paid by Tenant within ten (10) days of its receipt of the Operating Statement for such Operating Year.

 

6.9         No Reduction in Amount of Monthly Base Rent: Nothing in the Lease shall be construed to mean the Monthly Base Rent amount specified in the Basic Lease information shall be reduced due to any decrease in Operating Expenses, it being intended that the amount of the Monthly Base Rent remain fixed as specified in the Basic Lease Information throughout the Lease Term.

 

Section 7.            SECURITY DEPOSIT:

 

7.1         Security Deposit: Tenant shall deposit with Landlord upon execution of the Lease in immediately available funds the sum indicated in Section 1.20 of the Basic Lease Information as security for Tenant’s faithful performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder (“Security Deposit”). If Tenant fails to pay Rent, Additional Rent or other charges due hereunder or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of the Lease, Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent, Additional Rent or other charge in default or for the payment of any other sum to which Landlord may become entitled by reason of Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage which Landlord may suffer thereby. The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or Additional Rent, nor a measure of Landlord’s damages in the event of any default by Tenant. If Landlord so uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount stated above and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. If Tenant performs all of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, or so much thereof as has not theretofore been applied by Landlord, shall be returned, without payment of interest for its use, to Tenant (or at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee, if any, of Tenant’s interest hereunder) within sixty (60) days of the later of (i) the last day of the Lease Term, (ii) the date Tenant vacated the Premises, or (iii) the date Tenant has fulfilled all its obligations hereunder. No trust relationship is created here between Landlord and Tenant regarding the Security Deposit.

 

Page 8 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

7.2         Transfer of Security Deposit: Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Security Deposit to any assignee or other transferee of Landlord, subject to the terms hereof, and that the provisions hereof shall apply to every such assignment or transfer to a new Landlord. Upon delivery of the Security Deposit to any assignee or other transferee of Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Landlord shall thereupon be discharged from any further liability with respect to the Security Deposit. Tenant hereby agrees not to look to any mortgagee as mortgagee, mortgagee-in- possession or successor in title to the Premises for accountability for the Security Deposit unless the Security Deposit has actually been received by said mortgagee as security for Tenant’s performance of this Lease.

 

7.3         Partial Release of Security Deposit. If on December 31, 2015, Tenant is not and has never since the Commencement Date been in default under the Lease and provides evidence satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant has in its bank accounts cash in an amount of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), Landlord shall release from the Security Deposit the amount of Twenty-Six Thousand One Hundred Ninety-Eight Dollars ($26,198). If on December 31, 2016, Tenant is not and has never since the Commencement Date been in default under the Lease and provides evidence satisfactory to Landlord that Tenant has in its bank accounts cash in an amount not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), Landlord shall release from the Security Deposit the amount of Twenty-Six Thousand Nine Hundred Eighty-Three Dollars ($26,983). In the event of a release of Security Deposit amount as described above, Landlord shall send a check to Tenant within fifteen (15) business days after Tenant provides Landlord with the satisfactory evidence of the minimum amount of cash in Tenant’s bank account

 

Section 8.            SUBORDINATION, NOTICE TO SUPERIOR LESSORS AND MORTGAGEES:

 

8.1         Subordination.

 

8.1.1       This Lease is and shall at all times be and remain subject and subordinate to the lien of any present or future deed of trust, mortgage or other security instrument (a “Mortgage”) or any ground lease, master lease or primary lease (a “Primary Lease”) (and to any and all advances made thereunder) upon the Project, the Building, or the Premises, (the Mortgagee under any Mortgage or the lessor under any Primary Lease is referred to herein as “Landlord’s Mortgagee”), unless Landlord requires this Lease to be superior to any such Mortgage or Primary Lease. Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord any and all documentation required by Landlord to evidence the subordination (or superiority) of this Lease to any Mortgage or Primary Lease. If Tenant does not provide Landlord with such documentation within five (5) business days after Landlord’s written request given as provided in Section 27, Tenant hereby grants unto Landlord its power-of-attorney to execute such subordination documents as Tenant’s duly authorized and empowered attorney-in-fact.

 

8.1.2       In the event of subordination of this Lease, Landlord will attempt to obtain from Landlord’s Mortgagee, a written nondisturbance agreement to the effect that (i) in the event of a foreclosure or other action taken under the Mortgage by the holder thereof, this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder shall not be disturbed but shall continue in full force and effect so long as Tenant shall not be in default hereunder, and (ii) Landlord’s Mortgagee will agree that in the event it shall be in possession of the Premises, that so long as Tenant shall observe and perform all of the obligations of Tenant to be performed pursuant to this Lease, Landlord’s Mortgagee will perform all obligations of Landlord required to be performed under this Lease.

 

8.1.3       In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any Mortgage made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser at any such foreclosure, or to the grantee of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and recognize such purchaser or grantee as the landlord under this Lease. Tenant hereby agrees that no mortgagee or its successor shall be (i) bound by any payment of Rent or Additional Rent for more than one (1) month in advance, (ii) bound by any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the consent of Landlord’s mortgagee or its successor, (iii) liable for any breach, act or omission of any prior landlord, (iv) bound to effect or pay for any construction for Tenant’s occupancy, or (v) subject to any claim of offset or defenses that Tenant may have against any prior landlord. The word “Mortgage” as used herein includes mortgages, deeds of trust and any sale-leaseback transactions, or other similar instruments and modifications, extensions, renewals and replacements thereof, and any and all advances thereunder.

 

8.2         Notice: If any act or omission of Landlord would give Tenant the right, immediately or after lapse of a period of time, to cancel or terminate this Lease, or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise such right: (i) until it has given written notice of such act or omission to Landlord and each Superior Mortgagee and each Superior Lessor whose name and address shall previously have been furnished to Tenant; and (ii) until a reasonable period of time for such parties to cure the condition has passed.

 

Page 9 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

8.3         Attornment: For the purposes of this section, the term “Successor Landlord” shall mean the Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee if the same succeeds to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed, or any third party that succeeds to the rights of Landlord under this Lease by virtue of having purchased the Land, the Building or the Park Common Areas at a foreclosure sale. So long as Tenant is not in default of this Lease at the time of succession, the Successor Landlord shall accept Tenant’s attornment, and shall not disturb Tenant’s quiet possession of the Premises. Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant’s Landlord under this Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment.

 

8.4         Modifications for Superior Mortgagee: If any Superior Mortgagee shall require any modification(s) of this Lease, Tenant upon ten (10) days prior written notice of Landlord’s request, shall execute and deliver to Landlord such instruments effecting such modification(s) as Landlord shall require, provided that such modification(s) do not adversely affect in any material respect any of Tenant’s rights under this Lease including Lease Term and Rent obligations.

 

8.5         Landlord’s Breach of Lease: Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within thirty (30) calendar days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) calendar days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) calendar day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.

 

Section 9.            QUIET ENJOYMENT:

 

So long as Tenant pays all of the Base Rent and Additional Rent and performs all of Tenant’s other obligations hereunder, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises and its nonexclusive rights in the common areas of the Project without hindrance, ejection or molestation by Landlord or any person lawfully claiming through or under Landlord, subject nevertheless, to the provisions of this Lease and to any Superior Lease and/or Superior Mortgage.

 

Section 10.          ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING:

 

10.1      Consent Required: Tenant shall not assign, encumber, mortgage, pledge, license, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Premises or this Lease whether voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by any party other than Tenant, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In exercising such right of approval or disapproval, Landlord shall be entitled to take into account any fact or factor which Landlord reasonably deems relevant to such decision, including but not necessarily limited to the following, all of which are agreed to be reasonable factors for Landlord’s consideration: (i) the financial strength of the proposed assignee or subtenant, including but not limited to the adequacy of its working capital to pay all expenses anticipated in connection with any proposed remodeling of the Premises; (ii) the business reputation, character, history and nature of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (iii) whether the proposed assignee or subtenant is a person with whom Landlord has negotiated for space in the Building during the twelve (12) month period ending with the date Landlord receives notice of such proposed assignment or subletting; (iv) whether the proposed assignee or subtenant is a governmental entity or agency; (v) the proposed use of the Premises by such proposed assignee or subtenant and the compatibility of such proposed use with (i) Landlord’s strategic plan, and (ii) the quality and nature of uses by other tenants; (vi) whether the proposed use would cause a violation of any other rights granted by Landlord to other tenants; (vii) whether the proposed use of the Premises would adversely impact the parking or other services provided for other tenants generally; (viii) whether there then exists any default by Tenant pursuant to this Lease or any non-payment or nonperformance by Tenant under this Lease which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, would constitute a default under this Lease; and (ix) Landlord’s reasonable determination that each and every covenant, condition, or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease and each and every right, remedy, or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease is not impaired or diminished by such assignment or subletting.

 

10.2       Procedure:

 

10.2.1      Tenant must request Landlord’s consent to an assignment or sublease in writing at least forty-five (45) days prior to the commencement date of the proposed sublease or assignment, which request must include: (i) the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (ii) the nature and character of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (iii) financial information (including financial statements) of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (iv) a copy of the proposed sublet or assignment agreement, which must be in substance and form acceptable to Landlord and shall include, among other provisions, (a) that the original Lease controls, (b) that the sublease is subordinate to the Lease, (c) that Tenant remains liable under the Lease, and (d) that Landlord’s liability is not increased in any manner by said sublease; and (v) any additional information Landlord reasonably requests regarding such proposed assignment or subletting.

 

10.2.2         Within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives Tenant’s request (with all required information included), Landlord shall have the option, in its sole discretion: (i) to grant its consent in writing to such proposed assignment or subletting; (ii) to terminate this Lease effective as of the commencement date of such proposed assignment or, if a sublease, to terminate this Lease but only if the portion proposed to be subleased is seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the total Premises; or (iii) to deny its consent to such proposed assignment or subletting if reasonably determined by criteria summarized in Section 10.1.

 

10.3      Conditions: Any subleases and/or assignments are also subject to all of the following terms and conditions:

 

Page 10 – LEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

10.3.1     If Landlord approves an assignment or sublease as herein provided, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent fifty percent (50%) of the amount, if any, by which the rent, any additional rent, and any other sums payable by the assignee or subtenant to Tenant under such assignment or sublease exceeds the total of the Rent plus any Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder which is allocable to the portion of the Premises which is the subject of such assignment or sublease. The foregoing payments shall be made on not less than a monthly basis by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to review all records which support said payments.

 

10.3.2     No consent to any assignment or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of the provisions of this section, and all subsequent assignments or subleases may be made only with the prior written consent of Landlord. In no event shall any consent by Landlord be construed to permit reassignment or resubletting by a permitted assignee or sublessee.

 

10.3.3     Tenant shall remain liable for all Lease obligations, and, without limitation, the Guaranty of Lease (if any) shall be unaffected by such sublease and assignment, and shall remain in full force and effect for all purposes. An assignee of Tenant, at the option of Landlord, shall become directly liable to Landlord for all obligations of Tenant hereunder, but no sublease or assignment by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any liability hereunder.

 

10.3.4     Any assignment or sublease without Landlord’s prior written consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute a default under this Lease. If an assignment or sublease is effected in violation of this Lease, Landlord may collect rent from the assignee, transferee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to Rent, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, acceptance of the assignee or subtenant hereunder, or release of Tenant hereunder.

 

10.3.5     The term of any such assignment or sublease shall not extend beyond the Lease Term.

 

10.3.6     Tenant shall pay to Landlord a Five Hundred Dollars ($500) processing fee, which shall accompany any request for Landlord’s consent to a proposed assignment or sublease (even if denied, i.e., for work) delivered by Tenant to Landlord.

 

10.3.7     The proposed assignee or subtenant shall provide Landlord with the names of the persons holding an ownership interest in the assignee or subtenant for purposes of compliance with Presidential Executive Order 13224 (issued September 24, 2001).

 

10.3.8     The proposed assignee or subtenant shall represent and warrant that the assignee or subtenant is not and shall not be and, after making due inquiry, that no person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls assignee or subtenant, as an employee, agent or contractor of assignee or subtenant, is or shall be (i) listed on any List maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order, or regulation; or (ii) a person (a “Designated Person”) either (a) included within the term “designated national” as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (b) designated under Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling legislation, or any other similar Executive Orders (collectively, the “Executive Orders”).

 

10.3.9     Assignee or subtenant also shall require, and shall take reasonable measures to ensure compliance with the requirement, that no person who owns any other direct interest in assignee or subtenant is or shall be listed on any of the Lists or is or shall be a Designated Person.

 

This section shall not apply to any person to the extent that such person’s interest in the assignee or subtenant is through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

 

Section 11.          INSURANCE:

 

11.1       Tenant’s Compliance with Landlord’s Fire and Casualty Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, comply with all insurance company requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises.

11.5      Subrogation:  Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive their respective rights of recovery against each other for any loss of, or damage to, either parties’ property, to the extent that such loss or damage is insured by an insurance policy (or in the event either party elects to self insure any property coverage required) required to be in effect at the time of such loss or damage. Each party shall obtain any special endorsements, if required by its insurer, whereby the insurer waives its rights of subrogation against the other party. The provisions of this section shall not apply in those instances in which waiver of subrogation would cause either party’s insurance coverage to be voided or otherwise made uncollectible.

Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with the rules and regulations printed on or annexed to this Lease as Exhibit D and all reasonable modifications thereof and additions thereto from time to time established by Landlord by written notice to Tenant.

Landlord shall have no duty to Tenant with respect to the safety, adequacy, construction, efficiency or compliance with laws, with regard to the design of the Alterations, the plans or specifications therefore, or any other matter related to the Alterations, nor shall the approval by Landlord of any such Alterations be deemed to be a representation as to the safety, adequacy, construction, efficiency or compliance of said Alterations.

 

13.4       No Liens: Tenant, at its expense, and with diligence and dispatch, shall procure the cancellation or discharge of all notices of violation arising from or otherwise connected with Alterations, or any other work, labor, services, equipment, or materials done for or supplied to Tenant, or any other person claiming through or under Tenant, which shall be issued by any public authority having or asserting jurisdiction.

Section 14.         LANDLORD’S AND TENANT’S PROPERTY:

 

14.1      Landlord’s Property: All fixtures, carpeting, equipment, improvements and appurtenances attached to or built into the Premises at the commencement of or during the Lease Term, whether or not by or at the expense of Tenant, shall upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease be and remain a part of the Premises, shall be deemed the property of Landlord and shall not be removed by Tenant, except as provided in Sections 13.2 and 14.2 of this Lease.

Any equipment or other property for which Landlord shall have granted any allowance or credit to Tenant shall be deemed not to have been installed by or for the account of Tenant without expense to Landlord, shall not be considered Tenant’s Property, and shall be deemed the property of Landlord. Tenant shall also remove prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all telephone, computer and other electronic wiring and cabling installed for the benefit of Tenant or Sublandlord within the Premises and within the common ducts and shafts of the Building, including, without limitation, data/telco wiring that was part of the Premises at the time of Tenant’s original occupancy. Tenant shall use all necessary care in removing such wires and cables in order to avoid any damage to other tenant’s wiring and cabling or any disruption of service to such other tenants and Tenant agrees to be solely liable for any such damage or disruption of service caused by its removal. If Tenant fails to remove such wiring and cabling prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, Landlord may remove such wires and cables and Tenant shall pay the cost of such removal within ten (10) days after delivery of a bill thereof.

The “Abandonment Deadline” means the earlier of the expiration date of this Lease, or five (5) days following an earlier termination date, or three (3) business days following entry of an order of possession for restoration of the Premises to Landlord.

15.3      Disclaimer: Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or be liable for any damages directly or indirectly resulting from, or by reason of (i) the installation, use or interruption of use of any equipment in connection with the furnishing of the foregoing utilities and services, unless such interruption is caused by Landlord’s failure to reasonably maintain and operate such equipment (including the Building HVAC Systems), (ii) failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any such utilities or services when such failure or delay is caused by acts of God or the elements, labor disturbances of any character, any other accidents or other condition beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, or by the making of regular maintenance repairs or improvements to the Premises or the Building, or (iii) the limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction on use of water or electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any other service or utility whatsoever serving the Premises or the Building.

15.4       Use of Common Areas and Facilities: The Project, including, without limitation, parking areas, lighting facilities, pedestrian sidewalks and ramps, landscaped areas, exterior stairways, rest rooms, and other areas and improvements shall at all times be subject to the exclusive control and management of Landlord. Without limiting the scope of such discretion, Landlord shall have the full right and authority to employ all personnel and to establish, modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations necessary for the proper operation and maintenance of the Project. Landlord shall have the right to close from time to time all or any portion of the Project to such extent as, in the opinion of Landlord’s legal counsel, may be legally sufficient to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual of any rights to any person (other than Tenant) or the public therein. If the amount of such areas be diminished, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or diminution or abatement of Rent, nor shall such diminution of such areas be deemed constructive or actual eviction so long as any diminishment under this section does not materially decrease Tenant’s use of the Premises.

 

15.5       Parking Facilities: Tenant shall have the right throughout the Lease Term to use non-reserved parking spaces, free of charge and on a non-exclusive basis jointly with the other tenants of the Building, and their employees, agents, and invitees, subject to terms and conditions which may be changed from time to time.

 

15.6      Signage: Tenant shall not install or keep any of its own signs in, on or about the Premises, which are visible from any public areas without the prior written consent of Landlord, which Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold if such signage is in compliance with Landlord’s signage program. Any such sign request shall be made in accordance with the application process in place at the time of the request, and all such signs shall be in compliance with Landlord’s signage program. Tenant shall hold the right to place at its expense standard signage on the exterior of the Building in accordance with the Landlord’s signage program. If there is any sign on or about the Premises or Building without the consent of Landlord, Landlord may remove any such signs and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost of removal together with interest as set forth in Section 22.5 from date of expenditure until payment is made in full. Tenant shall pay promptly after Landlord invoices Tenant for such costs. If Landlord consents to such signs, Tenant shall repair any damage which alteration, renovation or removal of its signs may cause during or at the expiration or termination of the Lease Term. Tenant, at its expense, shall remove its signs from the Premises at the termination or expiration of this Lease, repair any damage and restore the Premises.

 

15.6.1     Directories: After the Commencement Date of this Lease, Landlord will provide Tenant with Building standard signage indicating Tenant’s location in the Building. The location of the Premises shall be designated by Building standard signage on a Building lobby directory and at the entry of the Premises. All such identification signs and directories shall be designed and installed at the sole discretion of Landlord. The expenses associated with the initial inclusion and maintenance of Tenant’s name and location on such signs shall be treated as Operating Expenses, but the expenses associated with any changes to such directory signs requested by Tenant shall be Tenant’s responsibility and shall be treated as Additional Rent pursuant to Section 2.4 of this Lease.

Section 16.          ACCESS:

 

Landlord reserves, and shall at all times have, the right to re-enter the Premises upon twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice to Tenant (except in an emergency) to inspect the same, to supply janitor service (if provided for under this Lease), and to perform any other service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant, to show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants, to post notices of non responsibility, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises and any portion of the Building of which the Premises are a part, without abatement of Rent. For such purpose, Landlord may erect, use and maintain scaffolding, pipes, conduits and other necessary structures in and through the Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, provided that entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and further provided that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises and any other loss occasioned by Landlord’s conduct pursuant to and in compliance with this section. For each of the purposes stated in this section, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key to all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes or special security areas (designated in advance). Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem necessary or proper to open all doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises, and any entry to any portion of the Premises obtained by Landlord by any such means, or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from all or part of the Premises. So long as Landlord does not unreasonably impede access to and from the Premises for Tenant and its employees and invitees, Landlord shall also have the right at any time, to modify the Park Common Areas, to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances, lobbies, parking facilities, passageways, doors and doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known.

 

Section 17.         NOTICE OF OCCURRENCES:

 

Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord of: (i) any known occurrence in or about the Premises for which Landlord might be held liable; (ii) any known fire or other casualty in the Premises; (iii) any known damage to or defect in the Premises including the fixtures, equipment and appurtenances thereof, for the repair of which Landlord might be responsible; and (iv) known damage to or defect in any part or appurtenances of the Building’s sanitary, electrical, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, elevator or other systems located in or passing through the Premises or any part thereof.

 

Section 18.         NONLIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION:

 

18.1      Assumption of Risk: Except to the extent of damage resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby assumes all risk of loss and damage to property and injury to persons in, on, or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever, it being the intent of the parties that it be Tenants obligation to carry and look to its own all risk insurance policy for coverage of any such loss, damage or injury even if caused by the negligence of Landlord. Tenant agrees that neither Landlord, its partners and subpartners, Superior Lessees, Superior Mortgagees, successors, assigns, and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, members, agents, property managers, employees, and independent contractors (collectively, the “Landlord Parties”) shall at any time or to any extent whatsoever be liable, responsible, or in any way accountable for any loss, liability, injury, death, or damage to persons or property that at any time may be suffered or sustained by Tenant or by any person(s) whomsoever who may at any time be using, occupying, or visiting the Premises.

 

18.2      Indemnification By Tenant: Except to the extent of damage resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Tenant agrees to protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold the Landlord Parties harmless and indemnify the Landlord Parties from and against all liabilities, damages, claims, losses, judgments, charges, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of court and expenses necessary in the prosecution or defense of any litigation including the enforcement of this provision) arising from or in any way related to, directly or indirectly, (i) Tenant’s or its directors, officers, agents, employees, and invitees (“Tenant Parties”) use of the Premises, Building, Project, and/or Park Common Areas, (ii) the conduct of Tenant’s business, (iii) from any activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or a Tenant Party in or about the Premises, (iv) in any way connected with the Premises or with the improvements or personal property therein, including, but not limited to, any liability for injury to person or property of Tenant, Tenant Parties, or third party persons, and/or (v) Tenant’s failure to perform any covenant or obligation of Tenant under this Lease. Tenant’s agreement to indemnify Landlord pursuant to this Section 18.2 is not intended and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. Tenant agrees that the obligations of Tenant herein shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

Section 19.         DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION:

 

19.1      Casualty: If the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall forthwith repair the same unless this Lease is terminated as permitted herein. Within forty-five (45) days from the date of such damage, Landlord shall notify Tenant if the Building is damaged in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the Building’s precasualty value, as reasonably determined by Landlord (damage in excess of such amount being referred to as “Major Damage” and damage equal to or less than such amount being referred to as “Minor Damage”). If Major Damage occurs, Landlord may elect to terminate the Lease. If Minor Damage occurs then Landlord shall repair such damage and rebuild that portion of the Building or the Premises damaged. In the event of Major Damage, if Landlord gives its written notice to Tenant electing to rebuild, within sixty (60) days of the date of damage, or in the event of Minor Damage, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect provided the repairs are completed within one hundred eighty (180) days except the Rent shall be reasonably abated during the period of repair based on that portion of the rentable square feet of the Premises not reasonably useable by Tenant. If in the event of Major Damage, Landlord elects by written notice to Tenant not to rebuild, then this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the effective date of such notice, the Rent shall be reduced by a proportionate amount based upon the extent to which Tenants use of the Premises is impaired, and Tenant shall pay such reduced Rent up to the date of termination. Landlord agrees to refund to Tenant any Rent previously paid for any period of time subsequent to such date of termination. Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage by fire or other cause to the property of Tenant.

19.2       Condemnation:

 

19.2.1      The terms “eminent domain”, “condemnation”, and “taken”, and the like in this Section 19.2 include takings for public or quasi-public use, and sales under threat of condemnation and private purchases in place of condemnation by any authority authorized to exercise the power of eminent domain.

 

19.2.2      If more than 25% the Premises is permanently taken by eminent domain or condemnation, this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date title vests in the condemning authority, and Tenant shall pay all Rent, Additional Rent, and other payments up to that date. If less than or equal to 25% of the Premises is taken by eminent domain or condemnation, then this Lease shall not terminate, and thereafter the Rent shall be reduced (on a per square foot basis) in proportion to the portion of the Premises taken.

 

19.2.3      Landlord reserves all rights to damages to the Premises or Building, or arising out of the loss of any leasehold interest in the Building or Premises created hereby, arising in connection with any partial or entire taking by eminent domain or condemnation. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any right Tenant may have to such damages or award, and Tenant shall make no claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for damages for termination of Tenant’s leasehold interest or for interference with Tenant’s business as a result of such taking. The foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemning authority separate compensation for any loss which Tenant may incur for Tenant’s moving expenses, business interruption or taking of Tenant’s personal property (but specifically excluding any leasehold interest in the Building or Premises) under the then applicable eminent domain code, provided that Tenant shall not make any claim that will detract from or diminish any award for which Landlord may make a claim.

 

Section 20.         SURRENDER AND HOLDING OVER:

 

20.1      General: On the last day of the term of this Lease, or upon re-entry by Landlord upon the Premises, Tenant shall quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord ’‘broom-clean” and in good order, condition and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear, and in accordance with the restoration provisions of Section 13 and Section 14 of this Lease.

 

20.2       Surrender: No agreement relating to the surrender of the Premises by Tenant shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Landlord.

 

20.3       Holding Over: If Tenant shall, without the written consent of Landlord, hold over and not yield up immediate possession of the Premises after the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term, then Landlord may, at its option, serve written notice upon Tenant that such holding over constitutes any one of the following: (i) creation of a month-to-month tenancy, or (ii) creation of a tenancy at sufferance: in any case, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease except that the monthly Rent (or daily Rent under (ii) above) shall, in addition to all other sums which are to be paid by Tenant hereunder, whether or not as Additional Rent, be equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the sum of the Rent plus Additional Rent owed monthly to Landlord under this Lease immediately prior to such expiration or termination (pro rated in the case of (ii) above on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for each day Tenant remains in possession in the same manner as provided in the Lease for the payment of Rent and Additional Rent if no such notice is served, then a tenancy at sufferance be deemed created. In the case of a holdover which has been consented to by Landlord, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall give to Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice of any intention to quit the Premises, and Tenant shall be entitled to thirty (30) days prior written notice to quit the Premises, except in the event of non-payment of Rent or Additional Rent when due or the breach of any other covenant or the existence of a default. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damages which Landlord suffers because of any holding over by Tenant, and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against claims (including actual and opportunity costs and attorney fees and costs) resulting from Tenant’s retention of possession, including any claim from any tenant or prospective tenant against Landlord. The provisions of this section shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of any right of re-entry as provided in this Lease nor shall receipt of any Rent or Additional Rent or any other apparent affirmance of the tenancy operate as a waiver of Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease for a breach of any terms, covenants, or obligations contained in this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed.

 

Section 21.          EVENTS OF DEFAULT:

 

21.1      Events of Default: The occurrence of any one or more of the following events of default (“Events of Default”) shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant:

21.1.2     If Tenant shall, whether by action or inaction, be in default of any of its obligations under this Lease (other than a default in the payment of Rent) and such default shall continue and not be remedied within thirty (30) days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant a notice specifying the same, or, in the case of a default which cannot with due diligence be cured within such time period and the continuance of which for the period required for cure will not subject Landlord or any Superior Lessor to prosecution for a crime or termination of any Superior Lease or foreclosure of any Superior Mortgage, if Tenant shall not, (i) within such time period advise Landlord of Tenant’s intention to take all steps necessary to remedy such default; (ii) duly commence within such time period, and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all steps necessary to remedy the default; and (iii) complete such remedy within a reasonable time after the date of said notice of Landlord.

Landlord at its option may make such physical changes to the Premises as Landlord considers advisable or necessary in connection with any such reletting or proposed reletting, without relieving Tenant of any liability under this Lease or otherwise affecting Tenant’s liability. If there is other unleased space in the Building, Landlord may lease such other space without prejudice to its remedies against Tenant.

 

22.1.3         Whether or not Landlord retakes possession or relets the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to recover unpaid rent and all damages caused by the default as well as all costs and expenses incurred in the connection with the enforcement of this Lease, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs. Damages shall include, without limitation: (i) all rentals lost; (ii) all legal expenses and other related costs incurred by Landlord following Tenant’s default; (iii) all costs incurred by Landlord in restoring the Premises to good order and condition, or in remodeling, renovating or otherwise preparing the Premises for reletting; (iv) alt unamortized tenant improvement allowance and lease commissions; and (v) ail costs incurred by Landlord in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, any brokerage commissions and the value of Landlord’s time.

Landlord may in one action recover accrued damages plus damages attributable to the remaining Lease Term equal to the difference between the rent reserved in this Lease (including an estimated amount of Additional Rent as determined by Landlord) for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award, and the fair rental value of the Premises for the same discounted to the time of award at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum. If Landlord has relet the Premises for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Lease Term or any part, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be deemed, prima facie, to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the Premises so relet during the term of the reletting.

 

22.1.5         To seize and dispose of Tenant’s Property (as that term is defined in Section 14.2) in any manner permitted by law.

22.3      Termination: In the event of a default, this Lease may be terminated at the option of Landlord by Landlord giving written notice to Tenant. If this Lease is not terminated by election of Landlord or otherwise, Landlord shall be entitled to recover damages from Tenant for the default. If this Lease is terminated, Tenant’s liability to Landlord for damages shall survive such termination, and Landlord may re-enter, take possession of the Premises, and remove any persons or property by legal action or by self-help with the use of reasonable force and without liability for damages to Tenant, its property, any other persons, and/or their property. Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s contractual liability under the Lease unless written release of liability is given by Landlord to Tenant.

 

22.4       Reduction or Cancellation of Services: In addition to any rights and remedies which Landlord may have under this Lease, if there shall be a default hereunder by Tenant which shall not have been remedied within any applicable grace period, Landlord shall not be obligated to furnish Tenant or the Premises any heat, ventilation or air-conditioning services outside of business hours on business days, or any extra or additional cleaning services; and the discontinuance of any one or more such services shall be without liability by Landlord to Tenant and shall not reduce, diminish or otherwise affect any of Tenant’s covenants and obligations under this Lease.

 

22.5       Interest on Damages: In addition to any other remedies Landlord may have under this Lease, and without reducing or adversely affecting any of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Section 22, if any Base Rent, Additional Rent or other amounts payable hereunder by Tenant to Landlord are not paid within ten (10) days after demand therefor, the same shall bear interest at the annual rate of fifteen percent (15%) or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, calculated monthly from the due date thereof until paid, and the amount of such interest shall be included as Additional Rent.

 

Section 23.          RELOCATION: Intentionally deleted.

 

Section 24.          NO WAIVERS OF PERFORMANCE:

 

The failure of Landlord to insist in any one or more instances upon the strict performance of any one or more of the obligations of this Lease, or to exercise any election herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of the performance of such one or more obligations or any other obligations of this Lease or of the right to exercise such election, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect with respect to any subsequent breach, act or omission. The receipt by Landlord of Rent with knowledge of a breach by Tenant of any obligation of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach.

 

Section 25.          CURING TENANT’S DEFAULTS:

 

All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Rent, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue for the periods referred to in Section 21 hereof, Landlord may make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant’s part to be made or performed as in this Lease provided but shall not be obligated to do so. Any such payment or performance shall not be a waiver or release of Tenant’s obligations. All sums so paid by Landlord and ail necessary incidental costs together with interest thereon at the rate specified in Section 22.5 from the date of such payment by Landlord shall be payable as Additional Rent to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay any such sums, and Landlord shall have, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, the same rights and remedies in the event of the nonpayment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Rent.

Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against and from any claims for any brokerage commissions and all costs, expenses and liabilities in connection therewith, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, arising out of any conversations or negotiations had by Tenant with any broker other than the Broker. Landlord shall pay any brokerage commissions due the Broker as per a separate agreement between Landlord and the Broker.

Any notice, statement, demand, consent, approval or other communication required or permitted to be given, rendered or made by either party to the other, pursuant to this Lease or pursuant to any applicable law or requirement of public authority, shall be in writing (whether or not so stated elsewhere in this Lease). Notices shall be deemed to have been properly given, rendered or made: upon delivery if delivered in person or by confirmed facsimile to Landlord or Tenant; or, if sent postage prepaid by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, effective seventy-two (72) hours after posted in a United States post office station or letter box in the continental United States, addressed to the other party at the address designated by the party (except that after the Commencement Date, Tenant’s address, unless Tenant shall give notice to the contrary, shall be Tenant’s address at the Premises in the Building). Either party may, by notice as aforesaid, designate a different address or addresses for notices, statements, demands, consents, approvals or other communications intended for it.

D.          No Tenant shall do or permit anything to be done in its Premises, or bring or keep anything therein which would in any way increase the rate of fire insurance on the Building or on property kept therein, or constitute a nuisance or waste, or obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants, or in any way injure or annoy them, or conflict with the taws relating to fire, or with any regulations of the fire department or with any insurance policy upon the Building or any part thereof, or conflict with any of the rules or ordinances of the Department of Health of the County in which the Building is located.

Addendum to Lease

 

This Addendum is an integral part of the attached Lease between Landlord and Tenant. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Addendum and the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Addendum shall control.

 

1.           OPTION TO EXTEND LEASE TERM.

 

1.1         Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease Term for one additional period of thirty-six (36) months (the “Extension Term”), such right to be exercised by written notice from Tenant to Landlord given not more than nine (9) months nor less than seven (7) months prior to the expiration date of the Lease. This extension right may only be exercised if Tenant is not in default under the Lease. If the Lease is terminated for any reason, the rights granted to Tenant in this section shall also terminate at the same time. If Tenant exercises the right to extend the Lease Term as provided herein and subsequently becomes in default prior to commencement of the Extension Term, Landlord may elect, by written notice to Tenant, to terminate Tenant’s prior election to exercise its right to extend the Lease Term, in which event Tenant shall have no rights with respect to the Extension Term. The option to extend the Lease Term is personal to Tenant and may be exercised only by Tenant (and not any assignee or subtenant) in the event Tenant is in actual occupancy of the Premises at the time the extension notice is given.

 

1.2         The leasing of the Premises during the Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions as are contained in the Lease, except that (a) there shall be no further options to extend the Lease after the Extension Term unless expressly granted by Landlord in writing, (b) any provisions of the Lease that are in the nature of concessions to induce Tenant to enter into the Lease shall not apply to the Extension Term, and (c) the monthly Base Rent during the Extension Term shall be the then fair market rent as reasonably determined by Landlord. The fair market rent determined by Landlord shall be based on rents for comparable space of comparable size with a comparable level of tenant improvements for a similar term for tenants of similar credit to that of Tenant, by reference to first-class space primarily in the Building and secondarily in other buildings comparable to the Building in age, quality, and location (suburban Portland office buildings in office/business centers or parks).

 

1.3        Upon notification from Tenant of the exercise of the extension option, Landlord shall within thirty (30) days thereafter notify Tenant in writing of the proposed monthly Base Rent for the Extension Term (“Extension Rent”). Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days following receipt of same to notify Landlord in writing of the acceptance or rejection of the proposed Extension Rent. Tenant’s failure to timely provide such notice shall constitute acceptance of the proposed Extension Rent. If Tenant rejects the proposed Extension Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree on Extension Rent through negotiation. If Landlord and Tenant fail through negotiation to agree on Extension Rent within fifteen (15) business days of Tenant’s rejection, either party may, within three (3) business days of the expiration of the fifteen (15) business day negotiation period, give written notice to the other party that it is electing not to proceed with the lease extension. In such event, the rights granted to Tenant in this section shall terminate. If no such notice is given within the three (3) business day time period, Extension Rent shall be determined as follows:

 

1.3.1         Within thirty (30) days following expiration of the negotiation period, Landlord and Tenant each shall appoint a disinterested and qualified real estate professional (but not an appraiser) to determine Extension Rent. If the two real estate professionals cannot agree upon Extension Rent within thirty (30) days following their appointment, the two appointees shall forthwith select a third disinterested and qualified real estate professional to determine Extension Rent, and the decision of any two of the three real estate professionals as to Extension Rent shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. The real estate professionals shall notify Landlord and Tenant in writing of their decision as to Extension Rent within thirty (30) days following the selection of the two real estate professionals or of the selection of the third real estate professional, as applicable. Landlord and Tenant shall bear the expense of the real estate professional appointed by each, and the expense of the third real estate professional shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant. If the Extension Term has commenced during the process for establishing Extension Rent, Tenant shall pay Extension Rent at Landlord’s rate, with retroactive adjustment made if a different rate is established as provided above.

 

1.4         Within thirty (30) days after Extension Rent has been finally determined, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a written confirmation of the Extension Term and Extension Rent. Failure or refusal of Tenant to execute the confirming memorandum shall be an Event of Default.
