3. TERM.
3.1 TERM. The term of this Lease shall be for 62 months commencing on
November 1, 1996 and ending on December 31, 2001 unless sooner terminated
pursuant to any provision thereof.
3.2 DELAY IN POSSESSION. Notwithstanding said commencement date, if for
any reason Lessor cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee on said
date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such
failure affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Lessee
hereunder or extend the term hereof, but in such case, Lessee shall not be
obligated to pay rent until possession of the Premises is tendered to Lessee;
provided, however, that if Lessor shall not have delivered possession of the
Premises within sixty (60) days from said commencement date, Lessee may, at
Lessee's option, by notice in writing to Lessor within ten (10) days
thereafter, cancel this Lease, in which event the parties shall be discharged
from all obligations hereunder; provided further, however, that if such
written notice of Lessee is not received by Lessor within said ten (10) day
period, Lessee's right to cancel this Lease hereunder shall terminate and be
of no further force or effect.
3.3 EARLY POSSESSION. If Lessee occupies the Premises prior to said
commencement date, such occupancy shall be subject to all provisions hereof,
such occupancy shall not advance the termination date, and Lessee shall pay
rent for such period at the initial monthly rates set forth below.
4. RENT. Lessee shall pay to Lessor as rent for the Premises, monthly
payments of $5,881.00, in advance, on the ______ day of each month of the
term hereof. Lessee shall pay Lessor upon the execution hereof $ -0- as rent
for See amendment #48 for rent schedule
Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one month
shall be a pro rata portion of the monthly installment. Rent shall be payable
in lawful money of the United States to Lessor at the address stated herein
or to such other persons or at such other places as Lessor may designate in
writing.
5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof
$ -0- as security for Lessee's faithful performance of Lessee's obligations
hereunder. If Lessee fails to pay rent or other charges due hereunder, or
otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Lessor may
use, apply or retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of
any rent or other charge in default or for the payment of any other sum to
which Lessor may become obligated by reason of Lessee's default, or to
compensate Lessor for any loss or damage which Lessor may suffer thereby. If
Lessor so uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit, Lessee shall
within ten (10) days after written demand therefor deposit cash with Lessor
in an amount sufficient to restore said deposit to the full amount
hereinabove stated and Lessee's failure to do so shall be a material breach of
this Lease. If the monthly rent shall, from time to time, increase during the
term of this Lease, Lessee shall thereupon deposit with Lessor additional
security deposit so that the amount of security deposit held by Lessor shall
at all times bear the same proportion to current rent as the original
security deposit bears to the original monthly rent set forth in paragraph 4
hereof. Lessor shall not be required to keep said deposit separate from its
general accounts. If Lessee performs all of Lessee's obligations hereunder,
said deposit, or so much thereof as has not theretofore been applied by
Lessor, shall be returned, without payment of interest or other increment for
its use, to Lessee (or, at Lessor's option, to the last assignee, if any, of
Lessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term hereof, and after
Lessee has vacated the Premises. No trust relationship is created herein
between Lessor and Lessee with respect to said Security Deposit.
6. USE.
6.1 USE. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for Computer Sales
and Servicing or any other use which is reasonably comparable and for no
other purpose.
6.2 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.
(a) Lessor warrants to Lessee that the Premises, in its state existing
on the date that the Lease term commences, but without regard to the use for
which Lessee will use the Premises, does not violate any covenants or
restrictions of record, or any applicable building code, regulation or
ordinance in effect on such Lease term commencement date. In the event it is
determined that this warranty has been violated, then it shall be the
obligation of the Lessor, after written notice from Lessee, to promptly, at
Lessor's sole cost and expense, rectify any such violation. In the event
Lessee does not give to Lessor written notice of the violation of this
warranty within six months from the date that the Lease term commences, the
correction of same shall be the obligation of the Lessee at Lessee's sole
cost. The warranty contained in this paragraph 6.2(a) shall be of no force or
effect if, prior to the date of this Lease, Lessee was the owner or occupant
of the Premises, and, in such event, Lessee shall correct any such violation
at Lessee's sole cost.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph 6.2(a), Lessee shall, at Lessee's
expense, comply promptly with all applicable statutes, ordinances, rules,
regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and requirements
in effect during the term or any part of the term hereof, regulating the use
by Lessee of the Premises. Lessee shall not use nor permit the use of the
Premises in any manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance or, if
there shall be more than one tenant in the building containing the Premises,
shall tend to disturb such other tenants.
6.3 CONDITION OF PREMISES.
(a) Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee clean and free of
debris on Lease commencement date (unless Lessee is already in possession) and
Lessor further warrants to Lessee that the plumbing, lighting, air
conditioning, heating, and loading doors in the Premises shall be in good
operating condition on the Lease commencement date. In the event that it is
determined that this warranty has been violated, then it shall be the
obligation of Lessor, after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting
forth with specificity the nature of the violation, to promptly, at Lessor's
sole cost, rectify such violation. Lessee's failure to give such written
notice to Lessor within thirty (30) days after the Lease commencement date
shall cause the conclusive presumption that Lessor has complied with all of
Lessor's obligations hereunder. The warranty contained in this paragraph
6.3.(a) shall be of no force or effect if prior to the date of this Lease,
Lessee was the owner or occupant of the Premises.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee hereby accepts
the Premises in their condition existing as of the Lease commencement date or
the date that Lessee takes possession of the Premises, whichever is earlier,
subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws, ordinances
and regulations governing and regulating the use of the Premises, and any
covenants or restrictions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto
and to all matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto.
Lessee acknowledges that neither Lessor nor Lessor's agent has made any
representation or warranty as to the present or future suitability of the
Premises for the conduct of Lessee's business.
7. MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS.
7.1 LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS. Lessee shall keep in good order, condition and
repair the Premises and every part thereof, structural and non structural,
(whether or not such portion of the Premises requiring repair, or the means
of repairing the same are reasonably or readily accessible to Lessee, and
whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Lessee's use,
any prior use, the elements or the age of such portion of the Premises)
including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all plumbing,
heating, air conditioning, (Lessee shall procure and maintain, at Lessee's
expense, an air conditioning system maintenance contract) ventilating,
electrical, lighting facilities and equipment within the Premises, fixtures,
walls (interior and exterior), foundations, ceilings, roofs (interior and
exterior), floors, windows, doors, plate glass and skylights located within
the Premises, and all landscaping, driveways, parking lots, fences and signs
located on the Premises and sidewalks and parkways adjacent to the Premises.
7.2 SURRENDER. On the last day of the term hereof, or on any sooner
termination, Lessee shall surrender the Premises to Lessor in the same
condition as when received, ordinary wear and tear expected, clean and free
of debris. Lessee shall repair any damage to the Premises occasioned
by the installation or removal of Lessee's trade fixtures, furnishings and
equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary otherwise stated in this
Lease, Lessee shall leave the air lines, power panels, electrical
distribution systems, lighting fixtures, space heaters, air conditioning,
plumbing and fencing on the premises in good operating condition.
7.3 LESSOR'S RIGHTS. If Lessee fails to perform Lessee's obligations
under this Paragraph 7, or under any other paragraph of this Lease, Lessor
may at its option (but shall not be required to) enter upon the Premises
after ten (10) days' prior written notice to Lessee (except in the case of an
emergency, in which case no notice shall be required), perform such
obligations on Lessee's behalf and put the same in good order, condition and
repair, and the cost thereof together with interest thereon at the maximum
rate then allowable by law shall become due and payable as additional rental
to Lessor together with Lessee's next rental installment.
7.4 LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Except for the obligations of Lessor under
Paragraph 6.2(a) and 6.3(a) (relating to Lessor's warranty), Paragraph 9
(relating to destruction of the Premises) and under Paragraph 14 (relating to
condemnation of the Premises), it is intended by the parties hereto that
Lessor have no obligation, in any manner whatsoever, to repair and maintain
the Premises nor the building located thereon nor the equipment therein,
whether structural or non structural, all of which obligations are intended
to be that of the Lessee under Paragraph 7.1 hereof. Lessee expressly waives
the benefit of any statute now or hereinafter in effect which would otherwise
afford Lessee the right to make repairs at Lessor's expense or to terminate
this Lease because of Lessor's failure to keep the premises in good order,
condition and repair.
7.5 ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS.
(a) Lessee shall not, without Lessor's prior written consent make
any alterations, improvements, additions, or Utility Installations in, on or
about the Premises, except for nonstructural alterations not exceeding $2,500
in cumulative costs during the term of this Lease. In any event, whether or
not in excess of $2,500 in cumulative cost, Lessee shall make no change or
alteration to the exterior of the Premises nor the exterior of the
building(s) on the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. As used
in this Paragraph 7.5 the term "Utility Installation" shall mean carpeting,
window coverings, air lines, power panels, electrical distribution systems,
lighting fixtures, space heaters, air conditioning, plumbing, and fencing.
Lessor may require that Lessee remove any or all of said alterations,
improvements, additions or Utility Installations at the expiration of the
term, and restore the Premises to their prior condition. Lessor may require
Lessee to provide Lessor, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a lien and
completion bond in an amount equal-to and one-half times the estimated cost
of such improvements, to insure Lessor against any liability for mechanic's
and materialmen's liens and to insure completion of the work. Should Lessee
make any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations
without the prior approval of Lessor, Lessor may require that Lessee remove
any or all of the same.
(b) Any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations
in, or about the Premises that Lessee shall desire to make and which requires
the consent of the Lessor shall be presented to Lessor in written form, with
proposed detailed plans. If Lessor shall give its consent, the consent shall
be deemed conditioned upon Lessee acquiring a permit to do so from
appropriate governmental agencies, the furnishing of a copy thereof to Lessor
prior to the commencement of the work and the compliance by Lessee of all
conditions of said permit in a prompt and expeditious manner.
(c) Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials
furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use in
the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanics' or
materialmen's lien against the Premises of any interest therein. Lessee shall
give Lessor not less than ten (10) days' notice prior to the commencement of
any work in the Premises, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of
non-responsibility in or on the Premises as provided by law. If Lessee shall,
in good faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then
Lessee shall, at its sole expense defend itself and Lessor against the same
and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered
thereon before the enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises,
upon the condition that if Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish to
Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to such
contested lien claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability for the
same and holding the Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim. In
addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's attorneys fees and costs
in participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is to its best
interest to do so.
(d) Unless Lessor requires their removal, as set forth in Paragraph
7.5(a), all alterations, improvements, additions and Utility Installations
(whether or not such Utility Installations constitute trade fixtures of
Lessee), which may be made on the Premises, shall become the property of
Lessor and remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration
of the term. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Paragraph 7.5(d),
Lessee's machinery and equipment, other than that which is affixed to the
Premises so that it cannot be removed without material damage to the
Premises, shall remain the property of Lessee and may be removed by Lessee
subject to the provisions of Paragraph 7.2.
8. INSURANCE INDEMNITY.
8.1 INSURING PARTY. As used in this Paragraph 8, the term "insuring
party" shall mean the party who has the obligation to obtain the Property
Insurance required hereunder. The insuring party shall be designated in
Paragraph 46 hereof. In the event Lessor is the insuring party, Lessor shall
also maintain the liability insurance described in paragraph 8.2 hereof, in
addition to, and not in lieu of, the insurance required to be maintained by
Lessee under said paragraph 8.2, but Lessor shall not be required to name
Lessee as an additional insured on such policy. Whether the insuring party is
the Lessor or the Lessee, Lessee shall, as additional rent for the Premises,
pay the cost of all insurance required hereunder, except for that portion of
the cost attributable to Lessor's liability insurance coverage in excess of
$1,000,000 per occurrence. If Lessor is the insuring party Lessee shall,
within ten (10) days following demand by Lessor, reimburse Lessor for the
cost of the insurance so obtained.
8.2 LIABILITY INSURANCE. Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense obtain and
keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of Combined Single
Limit, Bodily Injury and Property Damage insurance insuring Lessor and Lessee
against any liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or
maintenance of the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such
insurance shall be a combined single limit policy in an amount not less than
$500,000 per occurrence. The policy shall insure performance by Lessee of the
indemnity provisions of this Paragraph 8. The limits of said insurance shall
not, however, limit the liability of Lessee hereunder.
8.3 PROPERTY INSURANCE.
(a) The insuring party shall obtain and keep in force during the
term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage
to the Premises, in the amount of the full replacement value thereof, as the
same may exist from time to time, which replacement value is now $2,354.00,
but in no event less than the total amount required by lenders having liens
on the Premises, against all perils included within the classification of
fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, flood (in the event
same is required by a lender having a lien on the Premises), and special
extended perils ("all risk" as such term is used in the insurance industry).
Said insurance shall provide for payment of loss thereunder to Lessor or to
the holders of mortgages or deeds of trust on the Premises. The insuring
party shall, in addition, obtain and keep in force during the term of this
Lease a policy of rental value insurance covering a period of one year, with
loss payable to Lessor, which insurance shall also cover all real estate
taxes and insurance costs for said period. A stipulated value or agreed
amount endorsement deleting the coinsurance provision of the policy shall be
procured with said insurance as well as an automatic increase in insurance
endorsement causing the increase in annual property insurance coverage by 2%
per quarter. If the insuring party shall fail to procure and maintain said
insurance the other party may, but shall not be required to, procure and
maintain the same, but at the expense of Lessee. If such insurance coverage
has a deductible cause, the deductible amount shall not exceed $1,000 per
occurrence, and Lessee shall be liable for such deductible amount.
(b) If the Premises are part of a larger building, or if the
Premises are part of a group of buildings owned by Lessor which are adjacent
to the Premises, then Lessee shall pay for any increase in the property
insurance of such other building or buildings if said increase is caused by
Lessee's acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.
(c) If the Lessor is the insuring party the Lessor will not insure
Lessee's fixtures, equipment or tenant improvements unless the tenant
improvements have become a part of the Premises under paragraph 7, hereof.
But if Lessee is the insuring party the Lessee shall insure its fixtures,
equipment and tenant improvements.
8.4 INSURANCE POLICIES. Insurance required hereunder shall be in
companies holding a "General Policyholders Rating" of at least B plus, or
such other rating as may be required by a lender having a lien on the
Premises, as set forth in the most current issue of "Best's Insurance Guide".
The insuring party shall deliver to the other party copies of policies of
such insurance or certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of such
insurance with loss payable clauses as required by this paragraph 8. No such
policy shall be cancellable or subject to reduction of coverage or other
modification except after thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Lessor.
If Lessee is the insuring party Lessee shall, at least thirty (30) days prior
to the expiration of such policies, furnish Lessor with renewals or "binders"
thereof, or Lessor may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to
Lessee, which amount shall be payable by Lessee upon demand. Lessee shall not
do or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the insurance
policies referred to in Paragraph 8.3. If Lessee does or permits to be done
anything which shall increase the cost of the insurance policies referred to
in Paragraph 8.3, then Lessee shall forthwith upon Lessor's demand reimburse
Lessor for any additional premiums attributable to any act or omission or
operation of Lessee causing such increase in the cost of insurance. If Lessor
is the insuring party, and if the insurance policies maintained hereunder
cover other improvements in addition to the Premises. Lessor shall deliver to
Lessee a written statement setting forth the amount of any such insurance
cost increase and showing in reasonable detail the manner in which it has
been computed.
8.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and
relieve the other, and waive their entire right of recovery against the other
for loss or damage arising out of or incident to the perils insured against
under paragraph 8.3, which perils occur in, on or about the Premises, whether
due to the negligence of Lessor or Lessee or their agents, employees,
contractors and/or invitees. Lessee and Lessor shall, upon obtaining the
policies of insurance required hereunder, give notice to the insurance
carrier or carriers that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is
contained in this Lease.
8.6 INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and
against any and all claims arising from Lessee's, use of the Premises, or from
the conduct of Lessee's business or from any activity, work or things done,
permitted or suffered by Lessee in or about the Premises or elsewhere and
shall further indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and against any and all
claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any
obligation on Lessee's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or
arising from any negligence of the Lessee, or any of Lessee's agents,
contractors, or employees, and from and against all costs, attorney's fees,
expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any
action or proceeding brought thereon; and in case any action or proceeding be
brought against Lessor by reason of any such claim, Lessee upon notice from
Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel satisfactory to
Lessor. Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to Lessor, hereby
assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons, in, upon or
about the Premises arising from any cause and Lessee hereby waives all
claims in respect thereof against Lessor.
8.7 EXEMPTION OF LESSOR FROM LIABILITY. Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor
shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of income
therefrom or for damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of
Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any other person in or
about the Premises, nor shall Lessor be liable for injury to the person of
Lessee, Lessee's employees, agents or contractors, whether such damage or
injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or
rain, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes,
sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting
fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said damage or injury results
from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the
building of which the Premises are a part, or from other sources or places
and regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means of
repairing the same is inaccessible to Lessee. Lessor shall not be liable for
any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant, if any, of
the building in which the Premises are located.

after the expiration of said 20 day period, notwithstanding any term or
provision in the grant of option to the contrary.

the term hereof, Lessee's share of such taxes shall be equitably prorated to
cover only the period of time within the tax fiscal year during which this
Lease shall be in effect, and Lessor shall reimburse Lessee to the extent
required. If Lessee shall fail to pay any such taxes, Lessor shall have the
right to pay the same, in which case Lessee shall repay such amount to Lessor

"real property tax" shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or
charge (i) in substitution of, partially or totally, any tax, fee, levy,
assessment or charge hereinabove included within the definition of "real
property tax," or (ii) the nature of which was hereinbefore included within
the definition of "real property tax," or (iii) which is imposed for a
service or right not charged prior to June 1, 1978, or, if previously
charged, has been increased since June 1, 1978, or (iv) which is imposed as a
result of a transfer, either partial or total, of Lessor's interest in the
Premises or which is added to a tax or charge hereinbefore included within the
definition of real property tax by reason of such transfer, or (v) which is
imposed by reason of this transaction, any modifications or changes hereto,
or any transfers hereof.
10.3 JOINT ASSESSMENT. If the Premises are not separately assessed,
Lessee's liability shall be an equitable proportion of the real property
taxes for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel
assessed, such proportion to be determined by Lessor from the respective
valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other information
as may be reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable determination thereof, in
good faith, shall be conclusive.
10.4 PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.
(a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against
and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal
property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere. When possible,
Lessee shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other
personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property
of Lessor.
(b) If any of Lessee's said personal property shall be assessed
with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable
to Lessee within 10 days after receipt of a written statement setting forth
the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.
11. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas heat, light, power,
telephone and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together
with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered to
Lessee, Lessee shall pay a reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor
of all charges jointly metered with other premises.
12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
12.1 Lessor's Consent Required. Lessee shall not voluntarily or by
operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or
encumber all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the
Premises, without Lessor's prior written consent, which Lessor shall not
unreasonably withhold. Lessor shall respond to Lessee's request for consent
hereunder in a timely manner and any attempted assignment, transfer,
mortgage, encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be void, and
shall constitute a breach of this Lease.
12.2 LESSEE AFFILIATE. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph
12.1 hereof, Lessee may assign or sublet the Premises, or any portion
thereof, without Lessor's consent, to any corporation which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Lessee, or to any corporation
resulting from the merger or consolidation with Lessee, or to any person or
entity which acquires all the assets of Lessee as a going concern of the
business that is being conducted on the Premises, provided that said assignee
assumes, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease. Any such
assignment shall not, in any way, affect or limit the liability of Lessee
under the terms of this Lease even if after such assignment or subletting the
terms of this Lease are materially changed or altered without the consent of
Lessee, the consent of whom shall not be necessary.
12.3 NO RELEASE OF LESSEE. Regardless of Lessor's consent, no subletting
or assignment shall release Lessee of Lessee's obligation or alter the
primary liability of Lessee to pay the rent and to perform all other
obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by
Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Lessor of
any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be
deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of
default by any assignee of Lessee or any successor of Lessee, in the
performance of any of the terms hereof, Lessor may proceed directly against
Lessee without the necessity of exhausting remedies against said assignee.
Lessor may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or
amendments or modifications to this Lease with assignees
-3-
of Lessee, without notifying Lessee, or any successor of Lessee, and without
obtaining its or their consent thereto and such action shall not relieve
Lessee of liability under this Lease.
12.4 ATTORNEY'S FEES. In the event Lessee shall assign or sublet the
Premises or request the consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting or
if Lessee shall request the consent of Lessor for any act Lessee proposes to
do then Lessee shall pay Lessor's reasonable attorneys fees incurred in
connection therewith, such attorneys fees not to exceed $350.00 for each such
request.
13. DEFAULTS; REMEDIES.
13.1 DEFAULTS. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Lessee:
(a) The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee.
(b) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or any other
payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due, where such
failure shall continue for a period of three days after written notice
thereof from Lessor to Lessee. In the event that Lessor serves Lessee with a
Notice to Pay Rent or Quit pursuant to applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes
such Notice to Pay Rent or Quit shall also constitute the notice required by
this subparagraph.
(c) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the
covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed
by Lessee, other than described in paragraph (b) above, where such failure
shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof from
Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee's default
is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its cure, then
Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee commenced such cure
within said 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to
completion.
(d)(i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or assignment
for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Lessee becomes a "debtor" as defined in 11
U.S.C. Section 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within 60 days);
(iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within 30
days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within 30 days.
Provided, however, in the event that any provision of this paragraph 13.1(d)
is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or
effect.
(e) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given to
Lessor by Lessee, any assignee of Lessee, any subtenant of Lessee, any
successor in interest of Lessee or any guarantor of Lessee's obligation
hereunder, and any of them, was materially false.
13.2 REMEDIES. In the event of any such material default or breach by
Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand
and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which
Lessor may have by reason of such default or breach:
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any
lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall
immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event
Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by
Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited to, the cost
of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting, including
necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorney's
fees, and any real estate commission actually paid; the worth at the time of
award by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the
unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds
the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves could
be reasonably avoided; that portion of the leasing commission paid by Lessor
pursuant to Paragraph 15 applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease.
(b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the
Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor's
rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent
as it becomes due hereunder.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor
under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are
located. Unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations of
Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at
the maximum rate then allowable by law.
13.3 DEFAULT BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be in default unless Lessor
fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but
in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to
Lessor and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the
Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to
Lessee in writing, specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such
obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is
such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Lessor
shall not be in default if Lessor commences performance within such 30-day
period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.
13.4 LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee
to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on
Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises.
Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Lessee
shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor's designee within ten (10) days
after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to
Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to 6% of such overdue
amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and
reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment
by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event
constitute a waiver of Lessee's default with respect to such overdue amount,
nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies
granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder,
whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive installments of rent,
then rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance,
rather than monthly, notwithstanding paragraph 4 or any other provision of
this Lease to the contrary.
13.5 IMPOUNDS. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder,
whether or not collected, for three (3) installments of rent or any other
monetary obligation of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, Lessee shall pay
to Lessor, if Lessor shall so request, in addition to any other payments
required under this Lease, a monthly advance installment, payable at the same
time as the monthly rent, as estimated by Lessor, for real property tax and
insurance expenses on the Premises which are payable by Lessee under the
terms of this Lease. Such fund shall be established to insure payment when
due, before delinquency, of any or all such real property taxes and insurance
premiums. If the amounts paid to Lessor by Lessee under the provisions of
this paragraph are insufficient to discharge the obligations of Lessee to pay
such real property taxes and insurance premiums as the same become due,
Lessee shall pay to Lessor, upon Lessor's demand, such additional sums
necessary to pay such obligations. All moneys paid to Lessor under this
paragraph may be intermingled with other moneys of Lessor and shall not bear
interest. In the event of a default in the obligations of Lessee to perform
under this Lease, then any balance remaining from funds paid to Lessor under
the provisions of this paragraph may, at the option of Lessor, be applied to
the payment of any monetary default of Lessee in lieu of being applied to the
payment of real property tax and insurance premiums.
14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the
power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said
power (all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this Lease shall
terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority
takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than 10% of the
floor area of the building on the Premises, or more than 25% of the land area
of the Premises which is not occupied by any building, is taken by
condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing only
within ten (10) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of
such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after the
condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease as of
the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not
terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining,
except that the rent shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area
of the building taken bears to the total floor area of the building situated
on the Premises. No reduction of rent shall occur if the only area taken is
that which does not have a building located thereon. Any award for the taking
of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any
payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property
of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in
value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages;
provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any award for loss of or
damage to Lessee's trade fixtures and removable personal property. In the
event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation,
Lessor shall to the extent of severance damages received by Lessor in
connection with such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused
by such condemnation except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed
therefor by the condemning authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess
of such severance damages required to complete such repair.
15. BROKER'S FEE.
(a) Upon execution of this Lease by both parties, Lessor shall pay
to Triwest Asset Management, Inc. 4% of lease amount. Licensed real estate
broker(s), a fee as set forth in a separate agreement between Lessor and said
broker(s), or in the event there is no separate agreement between Lessor and
said broker(s), the sum of $______________, for brokerage services rendered
by said broker(s) to Lessor in this transaction.
(b) Lessor further agrees that if Lessee exercises any Option as
defined in paragraph 39.1 of this Lease, which is granted to Lessee under
this Lease, or any subsequently granted option which is substantially similar
to an Option granted to Lessee under this Lease, or if Lessee acquires any
rights to the Premises or other premises described in this Lease which are
substantially similar to what Lessee would have acquired had an Option herein
granted to Lessee been exercised, or if Lessee remains in possession of the
Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease after having failed
to exercise an Option, or if said broker(s) are the procuring cause of any
other lease or sale entered into between the parties pertaining to the
Premises and/or any adjacent property in which Lessor has an interest, then
as to any of said transactions, Lessor shall pay said broker(s) a fee in
accordance with the schedule of said broker(s) in effect at the time of
execution of this Lease.
(c) Lessor agrees to pay said fee not only on behalf of Lessor but
also on behalf of any person, corporation, association, or other entity
having an ownership interest in said real property or any part thereof, when
such fee is due hereunder. Any transferee of Lessor's interest in this Lease,
whether such transfer is by agreement or by operation of law, shall be deemed
to have assumed Lessor's obligation under this Paragraph 15. Said broker
shall be a third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Paragraph 15.
16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
(a) Lessee shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days prior
written notice from Lessor execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lessor a
statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full
force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification
and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect)
and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any,
and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to Lessee's knowledge, any uncured
defaults on the part of Lessor hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any
are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any
prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises.
(b) At Lessor's option, Lessee's failure to deliver such statement
within such time shall be a material breach of this Lease or shall be
-4-
conclusive upon Lessee (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by Lessor, (ii) that there
are no uncured defaults in Lessor's performance, and (iii) that not more than
one month's rent has been paid in advance or such failure may be considered
by Lessor as a default by Lessee under this Lease.
(c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Premises, or
any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender or purchaser
designated by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as may be reasonably
required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall include the past
three years' financial statements of Lessee. All such financial statements
shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and
shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
17. LESSOR'S LIABILITY. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only
the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title or a lessee's
interest in a ground lease of the Premises, and except as expressly provided
in Paragraph 15, in the event of any transfer of such title or interest,
Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers then the
grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all
liability as respects Lessor's obligations thereafter to be performed,
provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the
time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to
the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by
Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor's successors and
assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership.
18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the
validity of any other provision hereof.
19. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly herein provided,
any amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum
rate then allowable by law from the date due. Payment of such interest shall
not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease, provided, however,
that interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Lessee nor on
any amounts upon which late charges are paid by Lessee.
20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence.
21. ADDITIONAL RENT. Any monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease shall be deemed to be rent.
22. INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; AMENDMENTS. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No
prior agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter shall be
effective. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the parties
in interest at the time of the modification. Except as otherwise stated in
this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither the real estate broker
listed in Paragraph 15 hereof nor any cooperating broker on this transaction
nor the Lessor or any employees or agents of any of said persons has made any
oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee relative to the
condition or use by Lessee of said Premises and Lessee acknowledges that
Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the Occupational Safety Health
Act, the legal use and adaptability of the Premises and the compliance
thereof with all applicable laws and regulations in effect during the term of
this Lease except as otherwise specifically stated in this Lease.
23. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall
be in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified mail, and
if given personally or by mail, shall be deemed sufficiently given if
addressed to Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below the signature of
the respective parties, as the case may be. Either party may by notice to the
other specify a different address for notice purposes except that upon
Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute
Lessee's address for notice purposes. A copy of all notices required or
permitted to be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted
to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time
hereafter designate by notice to Lessee.
24. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor or any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any other provision thereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee
of the same or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any
act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's
consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of
rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by
Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the
particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such
preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.
25. RECORDING. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a "short form" memorandum of
this Lease for recording purposes.
26. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession
of the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof,
such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month upon all the provisions
of this Lease pertaining to the obligations of Lessee, but all options and
rights of first refusal, if any, granted under the terms of this Lease shall
be deemed terminated and be of no further effect during said month to month
tenancy.
27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies
at law or in equity.
28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by
Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.
29. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to any provisions hereof
restricting assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provisions
of Paragraph 17, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal
representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the
laws of the State wherein the Premises are located.
30. SUBORDINATION.
(a) This Lease, at Lessor's option, shall be subordinate to any
ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation or security
now or hereafter placed upon the real property of which the Premises are a
part and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
Notwithstanding such subordination, Lessee's right to quiet possession of the
Premises shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in default and so long as
Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of
this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms.
If any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease
prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall
give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease shall be deemed prior to
such mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated
prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground
lease or the date of recording thereof.
(b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate
an attornment, a subordination or to make this Lease prior to the lien of any
mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be. Lessee's failure
to execute such documents within 10 days after written demand shall
constitute a material default by Lessee hereunder, or, at Lessor's option,
Lessor shall execute such documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessee's
attorney-in-fact. Lessee does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint
Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact and in Lessee's name, place and stead, to
execute such documents in accordance with this paragraph 30(b).
31. ATTORNEY'S FEES. If either party or the broker named herein brings an
action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the
prevailing party in any such action, on trial or appeal, shall be entitled to
his reasonable attorney's fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the
court. The provisions of this paragraph shall inure to the benefit of the
broker named herein who seeks to enforce a right hereunder.
32. LESSOR'S ACCESS. Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to
enter the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same,
showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, and making
such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to
the building of which they are a part as Lessor may deem necessary or
desirable. Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises any ordinary
"For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any time during the last 120 days of the
term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs,
all without rebate of rent or liability to Lessee.
33. AUCTIONS. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises without first
having obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any
standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent.
34. SIGNS. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises without
Lessor's prior written consent except that Lessee shall have the right,
without the prior permission of Lessor to place ordinary and usual for rent
or sublet signs thereof.
35. MERGER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a
mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Lessor, shall not work a
merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing
subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to
Lessor of any or all of such subtenancies.
36. CONSENTS. Except for paragraph 33 hereof, wherever in this Lease the
consent of one party is required to an act of the other party such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.
37. GUARANTOR. In the event that there is a guarantor of this Lease, said
guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease.
38. QUIET POSSESSION. Upon Lessee paying the rent for the Premises and
observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on
Lessee's part to be observed and performed hereunder, Lessee shall have quiet
possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to all of the
provisions of this Lease. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of
Lessor represent and warrant to Lessee that they are fully authorized and
legally capable of executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and that such
execution is binding upon all parties holding an ownership interest in the
Premises.
39. OPTIONS.
39.1 DEFINITION. As used in this paragraph the word "Options" has the
following meaning: (1) the right or option to extend the term of this Lease
or to renew this Lease or to extend or renew any lease that Lessee has on
other property of Lessor; (2) the option or right of first refusal to lease
the Premises or the right of first offer to lease the Premises or the right
of first refusal to lease other property of Lessor or the right of first
offer to lease other property of Lessor; (3) the right or option to purchase
the Premises, or the right of first refusal to purchase the Premises, or the
right of first offer to purchase the Premises or the right or option to
purchase other property of Lessor, or the right of first refusal to purchase
other property of Lessor or the right of first offer to purchase other
property of Lessor.
-5-
39.2 OPTIONS PERSONAL. Each Option granted to Lessee in this Lease are
personal to Lessee and may not be exercised or be assigned, voluntarily or
involuntarily, by or to any person or entity other than Lessee, provided,
however, the Option may be exercised by or assigned to any Lessee Affiliate
as defined in paragraph 12.2 of this Lease. The Options herein granted to
lessee are not assignable separate and apart from this lease.
39.3 MULTIPLE OPTIONS. In the event that Lessee has any multiple options
to extend or renew this Lease a later option cannot be exercised unless the
prior option to extend or renew this Lease has been so exercised.
39.4 EFFECT OF DEFAULT ON OPTIONS.
(a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option,
notwithstanding any provision in the grant of Option to the contrary, (i)
during the time commencing from the date Lessor gives to Lessee a notice of
default pursuant to paragraph 13.1(b) or 13.1(c) and continuing until the
default alleged in said notice of default is cured, or (ii) during the period
to time commencing on the day after a monetary obligation to Lessor is due
from Lessee and unpaid (without any necessity for notice thereof to Lessee)
continuing until the obligation is paid, or (iii) at any time after an event
of default described in paragraphs 13.1(a), 13.1(d), or 13.1(e) (without any
necessity of Lessor to give notice of such default to Lessee), or (iv) in
the event that Lessor has given to Lessee three or more notices of default
under paragraph 13.1(b), where a late charge has become payable under
paragraph 13.4 for each of such defaults, or paragraph 13.1(c), whether or
not the defaults are cured, during the 12 month period prior to the time that
Lessee intends to exercise the subject Option.
(b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised
shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee's inability to exercise
an Option because of the provisions of paragraph 39.4(a).
(c) All rights of Lessee under the provisions of an Option shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due
and timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and during the
term of this Lease, (i) Lessee fails to pay to Lessor a monetary obligation
of Lessee for a period of 30 days after such obligation becomes due (without
any necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof to Lessee), or (ii) Lessee
fails to commence to cure a default specified in paragraph 13.1(c) within 30
days after the date that Lessor gives notice to Lessee of such default and/or
Lessee fails thereafter to diligently prosecute said cure to completion, or
(iii) Lessee commits a default described in paragraph 13.1(a), 13.1(d) or
13.1(e) (without any necessity of Lessor to give notice of such default to
Lessee), or (iv) Lessor gives to Lessee three or more notices of default
under paragraph 13.1(b), where a late charge becomes payable under paragraph
13.4 for each such default, or paragraph 13.1(c), whether or not the defaults
are cured.
40. MULTIPLE TENANT BUILDING. In the event that the Premises are part of a
larger building or group of buildings then Lessee agrees that it will abide
by, keep and observe all reasonable rules and regulations which Lessor may
