Access to the Premises Except as provided by local ordinance, after a good faith effort to give notice, the Lessor, its agents or employees shall have access at all reasonable hours to the leased premises for the purpose of examining or exhibiting the premises to prospective buyers or prospective residents, or for making alterations or repairs on the premises which the Lessor deems necessary. Lessor shall have access at all reasonable hours to perform Lessee requested repairs, unless indicated to the contrary by Lessee. In the event of an emergency, Lessor, its agents or employees shall have immediate access without notice.
Landlord’s Property All Alterations, improvements, fixtures, equipment and/or appurtenances which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove any Alterations or improvements and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to their condition existing prior to the installation of such Alterations or improvements or, at Landlord’s election, to a building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord; provided; however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, upon request by Tenant at the time of Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to any Alteration or improvement, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the applicable Alteration or improvement will be required to be removed pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.5. If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations or improvements in the Premises and return the affected portion of the Premises to their condition existing prior to the installation of such Alterations or improvements or, if elected by Landlord, to a building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, then Rent shall continue to accrue under this Lease in accordance with Article 16, below, after the end of the Lease Term until such work shall be completed, and Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform such work and to charge the cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant hereby protects, defends, indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any liability, cost, obligation, expense or claim of lien, including but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, in any manner relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any such Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on or about the Premises, which obligations of Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Use of the Premises A. The dwelling unit shall be used only as a private residence for Tenant and Tenant’s household members, except that Tenant and the household members may request an exception for certain limited incidental activities on a case by case basis in the dwelling unit if the Authority has given prior written consent to do so. All exceptions will require prior written approval and, if the activity will continue in the following year, a new exception request will need to be submitted for approval. B. Tenant shall give prior notice to the Authority of any guest staying overnight at Tenant’s premises and any such overnight stay is deemed an accommodation for the guest. Reasonable accommodation for a guest is permitted only so long as the guest is not provided accommodations in or upon the premises, including the dwelling unit, for more than a total of fourteen (14) days in a twelve (12) month period, except with the express written permission of the Authority made upon written request from Tenant. As used in the Lease, “guest” means a person present in the dwelling unit or elsewhere upon the premises, other than Tenant or the household members, who is so present with the consent of the Tenant or one of the household members. C. Tenant, any of the household members and any guest shall only use the dwelling unit or any other portion of the premises for lawful purposes permitted under the Lease and shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Authority and with all applicable federal, state and local laws. D. Tenant, the household members and any guests, shall use not use the utilities furnished by the Authority so as to waste the utilities through excess utility consumption, and shall also use and operate all utilities, whether or not furnished by the Authority, so as to comply with all applicable laws, regulations or guidelines of any governmental entity regulating utilities or fuels. E.

Damage to the Premises If the Premises shall, without fault or neglect on the part of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, customers or employees, be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty covered by standard policies of fire and extended coverage insurance and such damage or destruction (exclusive of Tenant’s leasehold improvements) could reasonably be repaired within ninety (90) working days from the happening thereof, then Landlord shall proceed with all reasonable speed to repair such damage or destruction, exclusive of Tenant’s leasehold improvements which shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. If the Premises cannot reasonably be restored within said ninety (90) day period, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, elect to restore the Premises. If Landlord does not elect to restore the Premises, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such damage or destruction and both parties shall be released from further liability hereunder, without prejudice, however, to any rights accruing to either party prior to the date of such damage or destruction. If Landlord elects or is required to restore the Premises and promptly commences and thereafter diligently pursues such restoration, then this Lease shall not terminate, notwithstanding that the actual time required for such repairs or restoration may exceed that contemplated by the parties and Tenant shall be entitled to a temporary reduction in Fixed Minimum Rent, as determined by Landlord, corresponding to the time during which and that portion of the Premises of which Tenant is deprived of possession on account of such damage or destruction or the repair or restoration thereof undertaken by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to receive the full amount of the proceeds of any business interruption insurance for the undiminished Fixed Minimum Rent and there shall be no reduction in Fixed Minimum Rent if such damage or destruction was the result of the fault or neglect of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, customers and employees. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to repair the Premises and Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease if the Premises are substantially damaged or destroyed by fire or any other cause during the last two (2) years of the term of this Lease or if the Building (whether or not Premises are damaged or destroyed) or the Common Areas are substantially destroyed by fire or other cause. If the damage or destruction of the Premises is so minor that the Premises remain fit for occupancy, then Landlord shall repair such damage or destruction as promptly as reasonably possible and there shall be no abatement of Fixed Minimum Rent as a result thereof.
Condition of the Premises Tenant has examined the Premises, including the appliances and fixtures ( and furnishings), and acknowledges that they are in good condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted, and accepts them in its current condition, except for:
TENANT PARKING Tenant shall rent from Landlord, commencing on the Commencement Date, the amount of parking spaces set forth in Section 9 of the Summary, on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term, which parking spaces shall pertain to parking on a first-come, first-served, as available basis in the Project parking facility. Tenant shall not use any space to park more than one vehicle at a time. Tenant may surrender spaces on not less than thirty (30) days prior Notice at which time Tenant’s right to re-rent such space shall expire. The location of the reserved parking spaces, if any, shall be designated by Landlord. Tenant shall pay monthly fees for all parking spaces rented by Tenant, on a monthly basis together with Base Rent, at the prevailing rate charged from time to time. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for any increases in taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with the renting of such parking spaces by Tenant or the use of the parking facility by Tenant regardless of whether Landlord charges Tenant for such parking separately or at all. Tenant’s continued right to use the parking spaces is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking spaces are located (including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord and the prohibition of vehicle repair and maintenance activities in the Project’s parking facilities), Tenant’s cooperation in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations and Tenant not being in Default under this Lease. Neither Tenant nor its employees shall park automobiles in the Project parking facility overnight. All vehicles parked in the Project parking facility must be properly licensed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Project is located and in operable condition. No oversized vehicles, commercial vehicles or vehicles which would damage the surface of the Project parking facility, shall be permitted to use the Project parking facility. Tenant’s use of the Project parking facility shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for damage to the vehicles of Tenant, its employees and/or visitors, or for other personal injury or property damage or theft relating to or connected with the parking rights granted herein or any of Tenant’s, its employees’ and/or visitors’ use of the parking facilities. Tenant’s rights hereunder are subject to the terms of any Underlying Documents. Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Project parking facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may issue a total number of unreserved spaces for the Project parking facility based on past usage patterns rather than limiting spaces to the number of spaces. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord and, at Landlord’s sole discretion, the monthly fees for parking spaces may be billed by and paid to the parking operator. The parking spaces rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel and such spaces may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval. Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as the Landlord may establish, at the validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking. Landlord may cancel parking spaces which remain unused for ninety (90) days or more.
Common Areas Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the Rules and Regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the “Common Areas”). The Common Areas shall consist of the “Project Common Areas” and the “Building Common Areas.” The term “Project Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord or areas within the Project that the occupants of the Building are permitted to utilize pursuant to a recorded declaration and which areas shall be maintained in accordance with the declaration. The term “Building Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the Building reasonably designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the reasonable discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to the Rules and Regulations as Landlord may make from time to time. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that, in connection therewith, Landlord shall perform such closures, alterations, additions or changes in a commercially reasonable manner and, in connection therewith, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any material interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises.
Common Area Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and such rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time reasonably prescribe, Tenant and Tenant’s employees, invitees and customers shall, in common with other occupants of the Parcel, and their respective employees, invitees and customers, and others entitled to the use thereof, have the non-exclusive right to use the access roads, parking areas and facilities provided and designated by Landlord for the general use and convenience of the occupants of the Parcel, which areas and facilities are referred to herein as “Common Area.” This right shall terminate upon the termination of this Lease. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make changes in the shape, size, location, amount and extent of the Common Area; provided that no such changes shall prevent or materially diminish or adversely affect Tenant’s ability to have access to and use of the Premises or Tenant’s allocation of parking spaces. Landlord further reserves the right to promulgate such rules and regulations relating to the use of the Common Area, and any part or parts thereof, as Landlord may reasonably deem appropriate for the best interest of the occupants of the Building. The rules and regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant, and Tenant shall abide by them and cooperate in their observance. Such rules and regulations may be reasonably amended by Landlord from time to time, with advance notice, and all amendments shall be effective upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant. Tenant shall have the exclusive use of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the parking spaces in the Common Area on a “first-come, first served” basis at no cost to Tenant during the Term or any extension or renewal of the Term. Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s trucks or other vehicles, or the trucks or other vehicles of others, adjacent to loading areas so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas, nor shall Tenant at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s vehicles or trucks, or the vehicles or trucks of Tenant’s suppliers or others, in any portion of the Common Area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not abandon any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any portion of the Common Area. Tenant shall make no alterations, improvements or additions to the Common Area without prior written approval of Landlord. Landlord shall at all times operate, manage, insure, maintain and repair the Common Area in good order, condition and repair. The manner in which the Common Area shall be maintained and the expenditures for such maintenance shall be at the unfettered discretion of Landlord. Except as excluded herein or in Addendum One, the cost of such repair, maintenance, operation, insurance and management, including without limitation, maintenance and repair of landscaping, irrigation systems, paving, sidewalks, fences, and lighting, shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of such costs as provided in Paragraph 12 below.
