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.
Landlord’s Consent Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project;
14.2.2 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;
14.2.3 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested; or
14.2.4 The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease. If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord’s consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14 (including Landlord’s right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a suit for contract damages (other than damages for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring) or declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.
Lessor Liens No Lessor Liens (other than those created by the Operative Documents) exist on the Closing Date on the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and the execution, delivery and performance by the Lessor of this Master Agreement or any other Operative Document to which it is or will be a party will not subject the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, to any Lessor Liens (other than those created by the Operative Documents).
Leased Property The Leased Property shall mean and is comprised of Lessor’s interest in the following:
(a) the land described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by reference incorporated herein (the “Land”);
(b) all buildings, structures and other improvements of every kind including, but not limited to, alleyways and connecting tunnels, sidewalks, utility pipes, conduits and lines (on-site and offsite), parking areas and roadways appurtenant to such buildings and structures presently situated upon the Land (collectively, the “Leased Improvements”);
(c) all easements, rights and appurtenances relating to the Land and the Leased Improvements;
(d) all equipment, machinery, fixtures, and other items of property required for or incidental to the use of the Leased Improvements as a hotel, including all components thereof, now and hereafter permanently affixed to or incorporated into the Leased Improvements, including, without limitation, all furnaces, boilers, heaters, electrical equipment, heating, plumbing, lighting, ventilating, refrigerating, incineration, air and water pollution control, waste disposal, air-cooling and air-conditioning systems and apparatus, sprinkler systems and fire and theft protection equipment, all of which to the greatest extent permitted by law are hereby deemed by the parties hereto to constitute real estate, together with all replacements, modifications, alterations and additions thereto (collectively, the “Fixtures”);
(e) all furniture and furnishings and all other items of personal property (excluding Inventory and personal property owned by Lessee) located on, and used in connection with, the operation of the Leased Improvements as a hotel, together with all replacements, modifications, alterations and additions thereto; and LESS AND EXCEPT all portions of the foregoing that are leased under Space Leases and all right, title and interest of Lessor under the Space Leases (including any rents, security deposits or collateral held by or owing to Lessor pursuant thereto). THE LEASED PROPERTY IS DEMISED IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY (EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED) BY LESSOR AND SUBJECT TO THE RIGHTS OF PARTIES IN POSSESSION, AND TO THE EXISTING STATE OF TITLE INCLUDING ALL COVENANTS, CONDITIONS, RESTRICTIONS, EASEMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS OF RECORD INCLUDING ALL APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS WHICH WOULD BE DISCLOSED BY AN INSPECTION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR BY AN ACCURATE SURVEY THEREOF.
Landlord’s Contribution Landlord shall, in the manner hereinafter set forth, contribute the lesser of (i) the actual cost of Tenant’s Work or (ii) $1,698,800.00 (calculated on the basis of $40.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises) (“Landlord’s Contribution”) towards the costs of designing and constructing Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall be entitled to use up to $424,700.00 (i.e., $10.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises) of Landlord’s Contribution towards the cost of architectural and engineering drawings, furniture, fixtures and equipment, permitting costs, cabling, wiring and moving costs, signage, third-party legal fees and consulting costs incurred by Tenant in the performance of Tenant’s Work. Provided no Default of Tenant exists at the time that Tenant submits any Requisition (as hereinafter defined) on account of Landlord’s Contribution, Landlord shall pay the cost of the work shown on each Requisition submitted by Tenant to Landlord within twenty-five (25) days of Landlord’s receipt thereof. For the purposes hereof, a “Requisition” shall mean written documentation showing in reasonable detail the costs of the Tenant’s Work then installed by Tenant in the Premises. Each Requisition shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that all work covered by previous Requisitions has been fully paid. Landlord shall have the right, upon reasonable advance notice to Tenant, to inspect Tenant’s books and records relating to each Requisition in order to verify the amount thereof. Tenant shall submit Requisition(s) no more often than monthly. Landlord’s Contribution, less a 10% retainage (which retainage shall be payable as part of the final draw), shall be paid to the general contractor that performs Tenant’s Work, in periodic disbursements within twenty-five (25) days after receipt of the following documentation: (i) an application for payment and sworn statement of contractor substantially in the form of AIA Document G-702 covering all work for which disbursement is to be made to a date specified therein; (ii) a certification from an AIA architect substantially in the form of the Architect’s Certificate for Payment found in AIA Document G702, Application and Certificate of Payment; (iii) Contractor’s, subcontractor’s and material supplier’s waivers of liens which shall cover all Tenant’s Work for which disbursement is being requested and all other statements and forms required for compliance with the mechanics’ lien laws of the state in which the Relocation Premises is located, together with all such invoices, contracts, or other supporting data as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably require; (iv) a cost breakdown for each trade or subcontractor performing Tenant’s Work; (v) plans and specifications for Tenant’s Work, together with a certificate from an AIA architect that such plans and specifications comply in all material respects with all laws affecting the Building, Property and Relocation Premises; (vi) copies of all construction contracts for Tenant’s Work, together with copies of all change orders, if any; and (vii) a request to disburse from Tenant containing an approval by Tenant of the work done and a good faith estimate of the cost to complete Tenant’s Work. Upon completion of Tenant’s Work, and prior to final disbursement of Landlord’s Contribution, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with: (I) general contractor and architect’s completion affidavits, (2) full and final waivers of lien, (3) receipted bills covering all labor and materials expended and used, (4) as-built plans of the Tenant’s Work, and (5) the certification of Tenant’s architect that Tenant’s Work has been installed in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with the Tenant’s Plans, and in accordance with applicable laws, codes and ordinances. In no event shall Landlord be required to disburse Landlord’s Contribution more than one (1) time per month. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse any portion of Landlord’s Contribution during the continuance of an uncured Default by Tenant under the Lease, and Landlord’s obligation to disburse shall only resume when and if such Default is cured. If Tenant does not submit a request for payment of the entire Landlord’s Contribution to Landlord in accordance with the provisions contained in this Section II (D) on or before the date that is twelve (12) months after the Relocation Date, any unused amount shall accrue to the sole benefit of Landlord, it being understood that Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit, abatement or other concession in connection therewith. Tenant shall be responsible for all applicable state sales or use taxes, if any, payable in connection with Tenant’s Work and Landlord’s Contribution.
Condition of Subleased Premises (a) Subtenant shall maintain and repair the Subleased Premises in a manner consistent with Sublandlord’s obligations under the Lease. Sublandlord shall have the right to enter the Subleased Premises from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to Subtenant, during normal business hours and escorted by Subtenant (if Subtenant makes such escort reasonably available). Sublandlord’s right of entry shall include the right of inspection to confirm that Subtenant is in compliance with all applicable maintenance and repair obligations set forth in the Lease. In the event that Sublandlord determines, in Sublandlord’s reasonable opinion, that Subtenant is in default of any maintenance and/or repair obligation set forth in the Lease, and such default may incur liability to Sublandlord upon the surrender of the Subleased Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (a “Required Repair Item”), then Sublandlord shall have the right to notify Subtenant of any such Required Repair Items. Subtenant shall be obligated to cure such Required Repair Items within thirty (30) days of such notice from Sublandlord, or, if such Required Repair Items cannot be reasonably completed in such thirty (30) day period, such longer period as reasonably necessary to cure such Required Repair Items, so long as Subtenant has commenced such cure and diligently pursues such cure to completion. In no event shall Sublandlord’s rights hereunder impose any additional and/or greater repair or maintenance standards from those set forth in the Lease. In the event Subtenant fails to cure such Required Repair Items as set forth above, then such failure shall be deemed a default under this Sublease, entitling Sublandlord to exercise any of its rights and remedies herein, including, without limitation, the self help rights set forth in Section 6(b) above.
(b) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease, Subtenant shall (i) return the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord in the condition required by the Lease, normal wear and tear and damage by casualty or condemnation excepted, and (ii) in accordance with the terms of the Lease, remove all personal property and equipment (other than fixtures but including trade fixtures) from the Subleased Premises required to be removed from the Subleased Premises in accordance with the Lease. Upon such expiration, Sublandlord and Subtenant shall schedule a walk-through of the Subleased Premises to determine whether Subtenant has complied with its obligation to surrender as set forth above. Sublandlord shall notify Subtenant of any perceived noncompliance at the time of the walk-through, or Sublandlord shall be estopped from attempting to charge Subtenant for the same at a later date. Sublandlord may forthwith re-enter the Subleased Premises following notice to Subtenant and repossess itself thereof and remove all persons and effects therefrom, using such force as may be reasonably necessary without being guilty of forcible entry, detainer, trespass or other tort. Subtenant’s obligation to observe or perform these covenants shall survive the expiration or other termination of the Sublease Term.
LANDLORD'S LIEN To secure the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, Tenant, as Debtor, and referred to in this Section as “Debtor”, hereby grants to Landlord, as “Secured Party”, a security interest in and an express contractual lien upon all of Debtor’s equipment, furniture, furnishings, appliances, goods, trade fixtures, inventory, chattels, and other personal property of Debtor which is now on the Premises or which is placed on the Premises at some later date, and all proceeds from such items. This property shall not be removed from the Premises without the consent of Secured Party until all arrearages in rent and all other sums of money being due to Secured Party under this Lease have been paid and discharged, and all the covenants, agreements, and conditions of this Lease have been fully complied with and performed by Debtor. Secured Party is authorized and Debtor hereby irrevocably and throughout the term of this Lease (and any extensions or renewals thereof) appoints Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact to prepare and file financing statements signed only by Secured Party as attorney-in-fact on behalf of Debtor covering the security described above; moreover, Debtor agrees to sign the same upon request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party is hereby authorized to file a duplicate original or Xerox copy of this Lease as a financing statement with the Office of the Secretary of State and with the appropriate county clerk’s office for the county where the Premises are located, as appropriate. Upon default under this Lease by Debtor, any or all of Debtor’s obligations to Secured Party secured hereby shall, at Secured Party’s option, be immediately due and payable without notice or demand. In addition to all rights or remedies of Secured Party under this Lease and the law, including the right to a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure, Secured Party shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of Texas. This security agreement and the security interest hereby created shall survive the termination of this Lease if such termination results from Debtor’s default. The above-described security interest and lien are in addition to and cumulative of the Landlord’s lien provided by the laws of the State of Texas. In the event Landlord sells Tenant’s property at a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale, Tenant hereby expressly consents to and gives Landlord the authority to bid on and purchase all or a portion of Tenant’s property at such sale.
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.
Condition of the Leased Property Lessee acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Leased Property. Lessee has examined and otherwise has knowledge of the condition of the Leased Property and has found the same to be satisfactory for its purposes hereunder. Lessee is leasing the Leased Property “as is” in its present condition. Lessee waives any claim or action against Lessor in respect of the condition of the Leased Property. LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY, OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY LESSEE. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LEASED PROPERTY HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY LESSEE AND IS SATISFACTORY TO IT. Provided, however, to the extent permitted by law, Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee all of Lessor’s rights to proceed against any predecessor in title (other than any Affiliate of Lessee, which conveyed the Property to Lessor) for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Leased Property. Lessor shall fully cooperate with Lessee in the prosecution of any such claim, in Lessor’s or Lessee’s name, all at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessor from and against any claims, obligations and liabilities against or incurred by Lessor in connection with such cooperation.
Use of the Leased Property (a) Tenant shall use or cause to be used the Leased Property and the improvements thereon of each Facility for its Primary Intended Use. Tenant shall not use the Leased Property or any portion thereof or any Capital Improvement thereto for any other use without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole discretion. Landlord acknowledges that operation of each Facility for its Primary Intended Use generally requires a Gaming License under applicable Gaming Regulations and that without such a license neither Landlord nor GLP may operate, control or participate in the conduct of the gaming and/or racing operations at the Facilities.
(b) Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste on the Leased Property (including any Capital Improvement thereto) or cause or permit any nuisance thereon or to, except as required by law, take or suffer any action or condition that will diminish the ability of the Leased Property to be used as a Gaming Facility after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.
(c) Tenant shall neither suffer nor permit the Leased Property or any portion thereof to be used in such a manner as (i) might reasonably tend to impair Landlord’s title thereto or to any portion thereof or (ii) may make possible a claim of adverse use or possession, or an implied dedication of the Leased Property or any portion thereof.
(d) Except in instances of casualty or condemnation, Tenant shall continuously operate each of the Facilities for the Primary Intended Use. Tenant in its discretion shall be permitted to cease operations at a Facility or Facilities if such cessation would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Tenant, the Facilities, or on the Leased Property, taken as a whole, provided that the following conditions are satisfied: (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing immediately prior to or immediately after the date that operations are ceased or as a result of such cessation; and (ii) the Percentage Rent due from each and every such Facility whose operations have ceased will thereafter be subject to a floor which will be calculated based on the Percentage Rent that would have been paid for such Facility if Percentage Rent were adjusted based on Net Revenues for the Fiscal Year immediately preceding the time that Tenant ceased operations at the Facility.
