Operating Expenses Unless modified in accordance with Exhibit D, Landlord maintenance addendum, attached hereto, it is the intention of the parties and they hereby agree that this shall be a triple net Lease, and the Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any services, perform any acts or pay any expenses, charges, obligations or costs of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Premises, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay one hundred percent (100%) of any and all Operating Expenses as hereafter defined for the entire term of the Lease and any extensions thereof in accordance with specific provisions hereinafter set forth. The term Operating expenses shall include all costs to Landlord of operating and maintaining the Building and related parking areas, and shall include, without limitation, real estate and personal property taxes and assessments, management fee, heating, electricity, water, waste disposal, sewage, operating materials and supplies, service agreements and charges, lawn care, snow removal, restriping, repairs, repaving, cleaning and custodial, security, insurance, the cost of contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental acts which may affect operating expenses, and all other direct operating costs of operating and maintaining the Building and related parking areas, unless expressly excluded from operating expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, operating costs (and Tenant's obligations in relation thereto) shall not include (i) any expense chargeable to a capital account or capital improvement, ground leases; principal or interest payments on any mortgage or deed of trust on the premises; (ii) any amount for which Landlord is reimbursed through insurance, by third persons, or directly by other tenants of the premises, (iii) repair costs occasioned by fire, windstorm or other casualty, (iv) any construction, repair or maintenance expenses or obligations that are the sole responsibility of Landlord (not to be reimbursed by Tenant), (v) leasing commissions and other expenses incurred in connection with leasing any other area located on the premises to any other party, (vi) any expense representing an amount paid to an affiliate or subsidiary of Landlord which is in excess of the amount which would be paid in the absence of such relationship, and (vii) costs of items and services for which Tenant reimburses Landlord or pays third persons directly.
Common Area Expenses In the event the demised premises are situated in a shopping center or in a commercial building in which there are common areas, Lessee agrees to pay his pro-rata share of maintenance, taxes, and insurance for the common area.
Operating Costs (a) Tenant shall maintain the Premises in their condition on the Effective Date at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord may inspect the Premises and, if Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant is not maintaining the Premises in their condition on the Effective Date, Landlord may provide Tenant with written notice of any such maintenance concern, and Tenant shall promptly make such repairs. If Tenant fails to complete such repairs within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, Landlord may undertake such repairs and Tenant shall be obligated to reimburse Landlord for its costs within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice therefore. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that the exterior walls, foundation and roof of the Premises are in good working order on the Effective Date. Landlord will, at its cost, replace, restore, repair or maintain (as necessary) the roof until the first anniversary of the Commencement Date. Landlord will, at its cost, replace, restore, repair or maintain (as necessary) the exterior walls and foundation of the Premises until the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date. Tenant shall be fully responsible for the replacement, restoration, repair and maintenance of the roof, exterior walls and foundation of the Premises thereafter. If Landlord fails to commence such repairs within thirty (30) days of receipt of any notice from Tenant, Tenant may undertake such repairs and Landlord shall be obligated to reimburse Tenant for its costs within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice therefore; provided, however, that Tenant shall have no rights to offset or set off any such amounts against the Rent to be paid hereunder. If Landlord does not reimburse Tenant within ten (10) days from the date of notice, such charge shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum until paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained (except for the provisions of paragraph 32 below), if Tenant makes any changes, additions or alterations to the roof of the Premises which involves penetration of the roof (other than those for telecommunications installations so long as the installation contractor has Landlord’s prior written approval which will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or denied), Landlord’s obligations to replace, restore, repair or maintain the roof shall cease. If Tenant undertakes any structural repairs in the Premises which impact, affect, or alter the walls or foundation of the Premises, Landlord’s obligation to replace, restore, repair or maintain that portion of the exterior walls and foundation of the Premises shall cease as of the date of such action by Tenant. Any Operating Costs that pertain to a period prior to or after the Lease Term will be pro rated between Landlord and Tenant in the proportion of the amount of the Lease Term that falls within the period to which the Operating Costs pertain.
(b) Tenant shall pay all Operating Costs during the Lease Term.
Limit on Operating Expenses The Advisor hereby agrees to limit the Fund’s current Operating Expenses to an annual rate, expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the month, to the amounts listed in Appendix A (the “Annual Limit”). In the event that the current Operating Expenses of the Fund, as accrued each month, exceed its Annual Limit, the Advisor will pay to the Fund, on a monthly basis, the excess expense within the first ten days of the month following the month in which such Operating Expenses were incurred (each payment, a “Fund Reimbursement Payment”).
Payment of Operating Expenses Subject to the provisions of Section 6.08(c), Borrower will (i) pay the expenses of operating, managing, maintaining and repairing the Mortgaged Property (including utilities, Repairs and Capital Replacements) before the last date upon which each such payment may be made without any penalty or interest charge being added, and (ii) pay Insurance premiums at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of each policy of Insurance, unless applicable law specifies some lesser period.
Common Area Maintenance Landlord will maintain or cause to be maintained the Common Areas and Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Tenant’s prorata share of the cost of such maintenance as hereinafter provided.
(a) Common area maintenance costs and expenses shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and allocated to any particular calendar year on the accrual method of accounting. Such costs and expenses shall include, but shall not be limited to upkeep, exterior painting, repairs, replacements and improvements in the Common Areas, snow removal, sweeping and cleanup, depreciation allowance on any machinery and equipment owned by Landlord and used in connection therewith, utility services including fire line water service charges, premiums for public liability, property damage and fire insurance including the Common Areas, any real estate tax and/or tax consultant expense incurred for the purpose of maintaining equitable tax assessments on the Development, all property taxes or assessments levied or assessed against all Common Areas, which, if not separately assessed, shall be determined, for land, by the ratio of land area designated for Common Area use to the total land area in the Development and, for improvements, on a fair and equitable allocation among the various improvements in the Development, giving weight to the factors which determine the amount of the real property tax or assessment in question. In addition, such costs shall include administrative costs equal to ten percent (10%) of the total cost paid or incurred by Landlord under this paragraph.
(b) Tenant shall pay as additional rent to Landlord, Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses in the following manner:
(1) From and after the date the minimum rental provided for herein has commenced, but subject to adjustment as hereinafter in this subparagraph (1) provided, Tenant shall pay Landlord in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease an estimated and adjustable amount covering Tenant’s proportionate share of common area services and expenses, which amount may be adjusted by Landlord by notice to Tenant at the end of any calendar month on the basis of Landlord’s experience and reasonably anticipated costs. (See Lease Rider “A” Building Expenses attached hereto and incorporated herein.)
(2) Within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant a statement covering the calendar year just expired, showing the total operating costs, the amount of Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses for such calendar year and the payments made by Tenant with respect to such calendar year as set forth in subparagraph (b) I. If Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses exceeds Tenant’s payments so made, Tenant shall pay Landlord the deficiency within ten (10) days after receipt of such statement. If said payments exceed Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the excess against payments next thereafter to become due Landlord as set forth in said subparagraph (b) I. Tenant’s pro-rata share of the total Common Area expenses for the previous calendar year shall be that portion of all such expenses which is equal to the proportion which the number of square feet of gross leasable area in the Demised Premises bears to the total number of square feet of gross leasable area of buildings in the entire Development which are from time to time completed and occupied as of the commencement of each calendar year.

In the event that a parcel or subdivision map with respect to the Park or a portion of the Park is recorded by Landlord, Tenant’s Share of Tax Expenses shall be commensurately revised to reflect any increases or decreases that may result from the impact of such parcel or subdivision map.
