Waiver by Tenant Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford the Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair.
Maintenance by Tenant Except for Landlord’s obligations described in Section 12 above and any janitorial services provided by Landlord under Section 9 above, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, will keep and maintain the Premises in good, clean, sanitary, neat and fully operative condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear and damage due to casualty excepted, so as to maintain the condition of the Premises consistent with similar premises in first class buildings in the Market Area, which obligations of Tenant will include, without limitation, the maintenance, repair and replacement of all: (a) interior surfaces of exterior walls and demising walls; (b) interior walls, moldings, partitions and ceilings; (c) carpeting; (d) non-structural interior components; (e) interior windows, plate glass and doors; (f) kitchen or break-room fixtures, appliances and equipment; and (g) Tenant’s personal property situated in the Premises. Tenant will also pay or reimburse Landlord for (or, at Landlord’s option, perform) the repair or replacement of any waste or excessive or unreasonable wear and tear to the Premises or the Complex caused or permitted by Tenant. Any repairs or replacements performed by Tenant pursuant to this Section must be at least equal in quality and workmanship to the original work, be in accordance with all Laws and comply with Landlord’s sustainability practices, including any third-party rating systems concerning environmental compliance of the Building or Complex, as the same may change from time to time. At the expiration or early termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver up the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as at the Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or casualty loss (unless caused by Tenant) excepted.
Repairs by Tenant Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly perform all maintenance, repairs, refurbishing and replacement work to the Leased Premises that are not Landlord’s express responsibility under this Lease, and shall keep the Leased Premises in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant’s repair obligations include repairs to: (a) floor covering, (b) interior partitions, (c) doors, (d) the interior side of demising walls, (e) electronic, phone and data cabling and related equipment that is installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant and located in the Leased Premises or other portions of the Building, (f) supplemental air conditioning units, private showers and kitchens, including hot water heaters, plumbing and similar facilities serving Tenant exclusively, and (g) alterations performed by contractors retained by Tenant, including related HVAC balancing. All Tenant’s work shall be performed in accordance with the rules and procedures described in Section 5.2 hereof. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant will surrender and deliver the Leased Premises to Landlord in the same condition in which the Leased Premises existed on the Commencement Date, subject, however, to (i) the provisions of Article VI hereof, (ii) the alterations permitted pursuant to this Lease, (iii) the provisions of Section 5.3, and (iv) except for ordinary wear and tear. If Tenant should fail or refuse to make such repairs, refurbishings or replacements or perform said maintenance as and when reasonably required, Landlord may, at its option, but without any obligation to do so, cure such failure or refusal and Landlord’s costs shall be reimburseable by Tenant as additional rent, by Tenant, immediately upon invoicing by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees to perform, as Above Standard Services, Tenant’s repair and maintenance obligations with respect to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall notify Landlord of the need for any such repair and maintenance and Landlord shall endeavor to respond timely to each such request.
By Tenant Tenant shall not make any alterations to or modifications of the Leased Premises or construct any improvements to or within the Leased Premises without Landlord’s prior written approval, and then not until Landlord shall have first approved, in writing, the plans and specifications therefore, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make alterations following not less than ten (10) business days notice to Landlord, but without Landlord’s prior approval, to the extent any such alteration is merely cosmetic in nature (i.e., re-painting and re-carpeting) and together with all other such alterations in any calendar year costs less than $20,000, and provided that such alteration does not (a) affect the exterior of the Building, (b) affect the structure of the Building or the systems and equipment of the Building, and/or (c) interfere with Building services or the use of the Property or the Building by other tenants or occupants. All such modifications, alterations or improvements, once so approved, shall be made, constructed or installed by Tenant at Tenant’s expense, using a licensed contractor first approved by Landlord, in substantial compliance with the Landlord-approved plans and specifications therefore. All work undertaken by Tenant shall be done in accordance with all Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner using new materials of good quality that match or complement the original improvements existing as of the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant shall not commence the making of any such modifications or alterations or the construction of any such improvements until (i) all required governmental approvals and permits shall have been obtained, (ii) all requirements regarding insurance imposed by this Lease have been satisfied, (iii) Tenant shall have given Landlord at least five business days prior written notice of its intention to commence such work so that Landlord may post and file notices of non-responsibility, and (iv) if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall have obtained contingent liability and broad form builder’s risk insurance in an amount satisfactory to Landlord to cover any perils relating to the proposed work not covered by insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to Article 9. In no event shall Tenant make any modifications, alterations or improvements to the Common Areas or any areas outside of the Leased Premises. As used in this Article, the term “modifications, alterations and/or improvements” shall include, without limitation, the installation of additional electrical outlets, overhead lighting fixtures, drains, sinks, partitions, doorways, or the like. If Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant to remove any alterations or modifications at the end of the Lease Term, and the cost of such removal and restoration together with the cost of removal and restoration of all other alterations and modifications which Landlord may require Tenant to remove exceeds $25,000.00, then as a condition to granting its consent, Landlord may require Tenant to increase the amount of its Security Deposit hereunder to cover such costs to the extent they exceed $25,000.00. Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable costs to inspect the construction of Tenant’s alterations or modifications and to have Landlord’s architect revise Landlord’s drawings to show the work performed by Tenant.
Alterations by Tenant Tenant shall not make any alterations, renovations, improvements or other installations (collectively “Alterations”) in, on or to any part of the Premises (including, without limitation, any alterations of the front, signs, structural alterations, or any cutting or drilling into any part of the Premises or any securing of any fixture, apparatus, or equipment of any kind to any part of the Premises) unless and until Tenant shall have caused plans and specifications therefore to have been prepared, at Tenant’s expense, by an architect or other duly qualified person and shall have obtained Landlord’s approval thereof. Tenant shall submit to Landlord detailed drawings and plans of the proposed Alterations at the time Landlord’s approval is sought. If such approval is granted, Tenant shall cause the work described in such plans and specifications to be performed, at its expense, promptly, efficiently, competently and in a good and workmanlike manner by duly qualified and licensed persons or entities approved by Landlord, using first grade materials. All such work shall comply with all applicable codes, rules, regulations and ordinances. The Tenant shall at all times maintain fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount adequate to cover the cost of replacement of all alterations, decorations, additions or improvements to the Premises by Tenant in the event of fire or extended coverage loss. Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord certificates of such fire insurance policies, which shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give the Landlord ten (10) days notice of cancellation of such policies.
INDEMNITY BY TENANT To the extent permitted by Law, Tenant hereby indemnifies, and agrees to protect, defend and hold the Indemnitees harmless, against any and all actions, claims, demands, liability, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for the defense thereof, arising from Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, from the undertaking of any Tenant Additions or repairs to the Premises, from the conduct of Tenant’s business on the Premises, or from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Tenant to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Lease, or from any willful act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, contractors, servants, employees, customers or invitees, in or about the Premises or the Property or any part of either. In case of any action or proceeding brought against the Indemnitees by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant covenants to defend such action or proceeding by counsel chosen by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord reserves the right to settle, compromise or dispose of any and all actions, claims and demands related to the foregoing indemnity. The foregoing indemnity shall not operate to relieve Indemnitees of liability to the extent such liability is caused by the willful and wrongful act of Indemnitees. Further, the foregoing indemnity is subject to and shall not diminish any waivers in effect in accordance with Section 16.04 by Landlord or its insurers to the extent of amounts, if any, paid to Landlord under its “All-Risks” property insurance.
Notice by Tenant Tenant shall give immediate notice to Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the Premises or in the building of which the Premises are a part or of defects therein or in any fixtures or equipment.
Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
Maintenance and Repairs by Tenant Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, promptly and throughout the Term, maintain, repair, and replace the Premises, including but not limited to the roof, parking lot and HVAC system, in a good and clean condition comparable to other similar commercial buildings in the Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan area, and in compliance with all applicable laws, and will suffer no active, passive or permissive waste or injury thereof or thereto. Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of any specific needed repairs, replacements or maintenance which will (1) affect the exterior walls, exterior doors, windows of the building, the structural parts of the building, the roof of the building, or the parking areas, or (2) exceed Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) (collectively “Material Repairs”). Tenant shall provide Landlord copies of plans and specifications for such Material Repairs, as required by Landlord. Landlord shall then have twenty (20) days after receipt of such plans and specifications to approve or reject the same by delivering written notice to Tenant. If Landlord fails to respond within such twenty-day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such plans and specifications. All Material Repairs to the Premises shall be performed by Tenant using contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and shall be at Tenant’s sole expense and at such times and in such manner as Landlord may approve. Any mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien for which Landlord has received a notice of intent to file or which has been filed against the Premises arising out of work done for, or materials furnished to Tenant, shall be discharged, bonded over, or otherwise satisfied by Tenant within ten (10) days following the earlier of the date Landlord receives (1) notice of intent to file a lien or (2) notice that the lien has been filed. If Tenant fails to discharge, bond over, or otherwise satisfy any such lien, Landlord may do so at Tenant’s expense, and the amount expended by Landlord, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, shall be due and payable immediately with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date of the payment by Landlord until Landlord receives payment from Tenant. If Tenant fails to comply with its maintenance, repair, or replacement obligations in this Section 5.3, Landlord may, in its sole discretion and in addition to any other remedies provided herein, perform said maintenance, repair, or replacement. Any sums so paid by Landlord, together with reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, shall be deemed to be additional Rent owing by Tenant to Landlord and shall be due and payable immediately with interest thereon at ten percent (10%) per annum from the date of the payment by Landlord until Landlord receives payment from Tenant.
Assignment and Subletting by Tenant 7.1.1 Tenant shall not have the right to assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber this Lease in whole or in part, nor sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, nor allow the occupancy of all or any part of the Premises by another, without first obtaining Landlord’s consent, which consent may be granted or denied in accordance with this paragraph. In no event shall the determination of the amount of rent be expressed in whole or in part as a percentage of the income or profits derived by the subtenant from the space leased (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of gross receipts or gross sales). Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of all sums payable under this Lease and for compliance with all of its other obligations as tenant under this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum from any assignee, sublessee, transferee, mortgagee or encumbrance holder shall not be deemed to be Landlord’s approval of any such conveyance. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any part of the Premises are then subject to an assignment or subletting, Landlord may, at its option, collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rents against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease. No such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord’s right of direct collection shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights and remedies provided for in this Lease or at law. Tenant makes an absolute assignment to Landlord of such assignments and subleases and any rent, Lease Security Deposits and other sums payable under such assignments and subleases as collateral to secure the performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.
