Related to Maintenance and Common Areas
Maintenance and Repairs (1) Except for matters specified under Paragraph 4 above and Paragraph 8A(3) below as being Landlord's obligation, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire and casualty excepted, including: the interior surfaces of the ceilings, walls and floors; all doors and interior windows; furnishings installed within the Premises; all equipment installed by or at the expense of Tenant; and all plumbing, heating, ventilating, electrical and lighting facilities and fixtures; all landscaping, parking lots, fences and signs located within the Premises. (2) In the event that Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair as required under this Lease, Landlord shall give Tenant prior written notice to do such acts as are required to so maintain the Premises. In the event that Tenant fails to commence such work within 30 days after written demand by Landlord, and diligently prosecute it to completion, then Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to do such acts and expend such funds at the expense of Tenant as are reasonably required to perform such work. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any reasonable damage, inconvenience or interference with Tenant's use of the Premises as a result of performing any such work. (3) Landlord will maintain, repair and replace all structural components of the Premises and the roof of the Building, and if a repair, replacement or alteration or other change would be considered a capital improvement or replacement to the Premises under generally accepted accounting principles, then it shall be Landlord's responsibility to promptly make and pay for such repair, replacement, alteration or other change. The cost of any such capital improvement shall be amortized over the useful life of such item and Tenant agrees to pay its percentage share (which shall be determined by dividing the square footage of the Building by the square footage of all buildings benefitted by such improvement, including the Building) of the annual amortized amount. Such payment will be made by Tenant as set forth in Paragraph 4 above. Landlord shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating to the Premises, except to the extent that the foregoing are solely a result of Tenant's use of the Premises. Tenant shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating solely to Tenant's use of the Premises. If a repair is required as a result of Tenant's negligence and such repair cost is not covered by insurance proceeds, Tenant will pay for the cost of such repair. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event that the need for repairs or the making of repairs (or both) which Landlord is obligated to effect at Landlord's expense renders a material portion of the Premises unusable for more than three consecutive business days, then Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent commencing with the fourth business day that the same are unusable; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to a pro rata abatement of rent under the foregoing due to unusability (i) caused directly or indirectly by any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant's servants, employees, agents, contractors, visitors or licensees, (ii) where Tenant makes a decoration, alteration, improvement or addition which directly causes such unusability, or (iii) where the repair in question is one which Tenant is obligated to furnish under the provisions of this Lease.
Maintenance of Common Areas Landlord shall maintain the Common Areas in good order, condition and repair and shall operate the Project and Park, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, as a first-class industrial/commercial real property development. Tenant shall pay, on a monthly basis, Tenant’s Pro-Rata Share (as determined below) of the costs specified below and incurred by Landlord for the operation and maintenance of the Common Areas in the manner stated in Section 4.05(e). Common Area costs include, but are not limited to, costs and expenses for the following: the emergency generator gardening and landscaping; utilities, water, storm water and sanitary sewage charges; maintenance of signs (other than tenants’ signs); premiums for liability, property damage, fire and other types of casualty insurance on the Common Areas and all Common Area improvements; all Real Property Taxes levied on or attributable to the Common Areas and all Common Area improvements; all personal property taxes levied on or attributable to personal property used in connection with the Common Areas; straight-line depreciation on personal property owned by Landlord which is consumed or used in the operation or maintenance of the Common Areas; rental or lease payments paid by Landlord for rented or leased personal property used in the operation or maintenance of the Common Areas; fees for required licenses and permits; repairing, resurfacing and repaying, striping or restriping, maintaining, painting, lighting, cleaning, refuse removal, security and similar items; sales taxes; business and occupations taxes; and a reasonable fee to Landlord for Landlord’s supervision of the Common Areas and Project management (not to exceed three percent (3%) of the Base Rents of the Project for the calendar year). Landlord may cause any or all of such services to be provided by third parties and the cost of such services shall be included in Common Area costs. Common Area costs shall not include depreciation of real property which forms part of the Common Areas. The parties acknowledge and agree that the costs for maintaining the emergency generator shall be divided pro-rata among the four buildings to which it is connected.
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.
Premises Parking and Common Areas 2.1 Letting Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the Premises, for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the terms covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease. Unless otherwise provided herein, any statement of square footage set forth in this Lease, or that may have been used in calculating rental and/or Common Area Operating Expenses, is an approximation which Lessor and Lessee agree is reasonable and the rental and Lessee's Share (as defined in Paragraph 1.6(b)) based thereon is not subject to revision whether or not the actual square footage is more or less.
Maintenance and Repair (a) Subject to Landlord’s limited obligations under subparagraph 6(a), by taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises as being in good order, condition and repair. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, keep the Premises and every part thereof in good condition and repair, including without limitation, the maintenance, repair and replacement of any storefront, doors, window casements, glazing, plumbing, pipes, electrical wiring and conduits, and the heating and air conditioning (“HVAC”) system. Tenant shall obtain a service contract for repairs and maintenance of the HVAC system and shall provide to Landlord a copy of the service contract along with written details of any and all scheduled and other repairs and maintenance performed on the HVAC system within ten (10) days of the date of such performance. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, surrender the Premises to Landlord in good condition, broom clean, ordinary wear and tear and damage subject to Paragraph 24 excepted. Except for damage subject to Paragraph 24, any damage caused by Tenant’s use of the Premises shall be repaired at the sole cost and expense of Tenant. (b) Except as specifically provided in subparagraph 6(a) above, Tenant shall repair and maintain the structural portions of the Building, including the exterior walls and roof. Landlord shall not be liable for Tenant’s failure to make such repairs or to perform any maintenance. There shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Building or the Premises or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment therein. Tenant waives any right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. (c) If Tenant refuses or neglects to repair or maintain the Premises, as required herein, to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice of any such refusal or neglect and Tenant shall repair any item mentioned in said notice within thirty (30) days thereafter. If Tenant has not made such repairs within the 30-day period, Landlord may make such repairs without liability to the Tenant for any loss or damage it may accrue to Tenant’s merchandise, fixtures or other property or to Tenant’s business by reason thereof and, upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s costs for making such repairs upon presentation of a xxxx thereof. In the event Tenant does not pay such xxxx within ten (10) days of its receipt, such failure shall be an event of default hereunder, Landlord shall be entitled to utilize all of its remedies herein and such amount shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of the notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant in good faith disputes Landlord’s claim that Tenant has failed to repair or maintain any aspect of the Premises, then if Landlord makes any repairs, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay for the repairs or any interest thereon until the dispute is finally determined; provided, that Tenant shall deposit the disputed amount with the Landlord until the dispute is resolved.

TENANT’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Tenant at its sole expense shall comply with all applicable laws and governmental regulations governing the Premises and make all repairs necessary to keep the Premises in the condition as existed on the Commencement Date (or on any later date that the improvements may have been installed), excepting ordinary wear and tear, including without limitation the electrical and mechanical systems, any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises, all walls, glass, windows, doors, door closures, hardware, fixtures, electrical, plumbing, fire extinguisher equipment and other equipment. Any damage or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good maintenance practices by Tenant. As part of its maintenance obligations hereunder, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with copies of all maintenance schedules, reports and notices prepared by, for or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall obtain preventive maintenance contracts from a licensed heating and air conditioning contractor to provide for regular inspection and maintenance of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems servicing the Premises, all subject to Landlord’s approval.

Alternatively, Landlord may elect to make any repair or maintenance required hereunder on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred upon submission of an invoice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.1, in the event Tenant’s obligation for compliance with all applicable laws and governmental regulations, or making repairs, results in a capital improvement on Tenant’s part (or Tenant’s being obligated to reimburse Landlord for a capital improvement), Tenant shall only be responsible for the amortized cost of such capital improvement (amortized at a market cost of funds as reasonably determined by Landlord) over the useful life of such improvements during the Term (except in the event obligation for any such capital improvement is required due to Tenant’s particular use of the Premises, in which case Tenant shall be fully responsible for the entire cost and installation of such capital improvement).
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.
LANDLORD’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Subject to Section 7.1 and Article XI, Landlord shall provide service, maintenance and repair with respect to any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises (exclusive, however, of supplemental HVAC equipment serving only the Premises), and shall maintain in good repair the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (including exterior glass), and the structural, electrical and mechanical systems, except that Tenant at its expense shall make all repairs which Landlord deems reasonably necessary as a result of the act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, subtenants or contractors. Landlord shall have the right to employ or designate any reputable person or firm, including any employee or agent of Landlord or any of Landlord's affiliates or divisions, to perform any service, repair or maintenance function. Landlord need not make any other improvements or repairs except as specifically required under this Lease, and nothing contained in this Section shall limit Landlord's right to reimbursement from Tenant for maintenance, repair costs and replacement costs as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Tenant understands that it shall not make repairs at Landlord's expense or by rental offset. Tenant further understands that Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (excluding exterior glass), or structural, electrical or mechanical systems unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of the need for such repair and Landlord shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repair, if warranted. All costs of any maintenance, repairs and replacement on the part of Landlord provided hereunder shall be considered part of Project Costs. Tenant further agrees that if Tenant fails to report any such need for repair in writing within sixty (60) days of its discovery by Tenant, Tenant shall be responsible for any costs and expenses and other damages related to such repair which are in excess of those which would have resulted had such need for repair been reported to Landlord within such sixty (60) day period.
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.
