Landlord’s Election Tenant’s request for consent to any Transfer shall he accompanied by a written statement setting forth the details of the proposed Transfer, including the name, business and financial condition of the prospective Transferee, financial details of the proposed Transfer (e.g., the term and the rent and security deposit payable), and any other related information that Landlord may reasonably require. Landlord shall have the right: (a) to withhold consent to the Transfer, if reasonable, (b) to grant consent, (c) to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises affected by any proposed Transfer, in which event Landlord may enter into a lease directly with the proposed Transferee, or (d) to consent on the condition that Landlord be paid, as Additional Rent hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of all subrent or other consideration to be paid to Tenant under the terms of the Transfer in excess of the total rent due hereunder (including, if such Transfer is an assignment or if such Transfer is to occur directly or indirectly in connection with the sale of any assets of Tenant, fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the consideration attributable to the Transfer of the Lease, as reasonably determined by Landlord). The grounds on which Landlord may reasonably withhold its consent to any requested Transfer include, without limitation, that: (i) the proposed Transferee’s contemplated use of the Premises following the proposed Transfer is reasonably similar to the use of the Premises permitted hereunder, (ii) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the proposed Transferee lacks sufficient business reputation or experience to operate a successful business of the type and quality permitted under this Lease, (iii) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the proposed Transferee lacks sufficient net worth, working capital, anticipated cash flow and other indications of financial strength to meet all of its obligations under this Lease, (iv) the proposed Transfer would breach any covenant of Landlord respecting a radius restriction, location, use or exclusivity in any other lease, financing agreement, or other agreement relating to the Property, and (v) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment, the possibility of a release of Hazardous Materials is materially increased as a result of the Transfer or if Landlord does not receive sufficient assurances that the proposed Transferee has the experience and financial ability to remedy a violation of Hazardous Materials and to fulfill its obligations under Articles 13 and 14. Landlord need only respond to any request by Tenant hereunder within a reasonable time of not less than ten (10) business days alter receipt of all information and other submission required in connection with such request.
Landlord’s Fees Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any action not required of it hereunder or give any consent required or permitted under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs payable to third parties and incurred by Landlord in reviewing the proposed action or consent, including reasonable attorneys’, engineers’ or architects’ fees, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a statement of such costs. Tenant will be obligated to make such reimbursement without regard to whether Landlord consents to any such proposed action.
Landlord’s Expenses In the event Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or request the consent of Landlord to any Transfer, then Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including, but not limited to, attorneys', architects', accountants', engineers' or other consultants' fees.
Monthly Rent a. Commencing as of the Commencement Date, and continuing thereafter on or before the first day of each calendar month during the term hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as monthly rent for the Premises, the Monthly Rent specified in Paragraph 2 above. If Tenant’s obligation to pay Monthly Rent hereunder commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, or if the term of this Lease terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the Monthly Rent payable for such partial month shall be appropriately prorated on the basis of a thirty (30)-day month. Monthly Rent and the Additional Rent specified in Paragraph 7 shall he paid by Tenant to Landlord, in advance, without deduction, offset, prior notice or demand, in immediately available funds of lawful money of the United States of America, or by good check as described below, to the lockbox location designated by Landlord, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. Payments made by check must be drawn either on a California financial institution or on a financial institution that is a member of the federal reserve system. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord together with Tenant’s execution of this Lease an amount equal to the Monthly Rent payable for the first full calendar month of the Lease term after Tenant’s obligation to pay Monthly Rent shall have commenced hereunder, which amount shall be applied to the Monthly Rent first due and payable hereunder.
b. All amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, or otherwise payable in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, in addition to the Monthly Rent hereunder and Additional Rent under Paragraph 7, shall constitute rent owed by Tenant to Landlord hereunder.
c. Any rent not paid by Tenant to Landlord when due shall bear interest from the date due to the date of payment by Tenant at an annual rate of interest (the “Interest Rate”) equal to the lesser of (i) twelve percent (12%) per annum or (ii) the maximum annual interest rate allowed by law on such due date for business loans (not primarily for personal, family or household purposes) not exempt from the usury law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of non-payment of rent when due and five (5) days after delivery of such notice to cure such non-payment once in each calendar year before assessing interest in such calendar year pursuant to this Paragraph 5.c. Failure by Tenant to pay rent when due, including any interest accrued under this subparagraph, shall constitute an Event of Default (as defined in Paragraph 25 below) giving rise to all the remedies afforded Landlord under this Lease and at law for nonpayment of rent.
d. No security or guaranty which may now or hereafter be furnished to Landlord for the payment of rent due hereunder or for the performance by Tenant of the other terms of this Lease shall in any way be a bar or defense to any of Landlord’s remedies under this Lease or at law.
e. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease: (i) in no event may any rent under this Lease be based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived from the Premises, except for percentage rent based on gross (not net) receipts or sales; (ii) if the holder of a Superior Interest (as defined in Paragraph 21 below) succeeds to Landlord’s interest in the Lease (“Successor Landlord”) and the Successor Landlord is advised by its counsel that all or any portion of the rent payable under this Lease is or may be deemed to be “unrelated business income” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder, such Successor Landlord may, at its option, unilaterally amend the calculation of rent so that none of the rent payable to Landlord under the Lease will constitute “unrelated business income,” but the amendment will not increase Tenant’s payment obligations or other liability under this Lease or reduce the Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and (iii) upon the Successor Landlord’s request, Tenant shall execute any document such holder deems necessary to effect the foregoing amendment to this Lease.
Payment of Additional Rent In addition to the Minimum Annual Rent specified in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as "Additional Rent" for the Leased Premises, in each calendar year or partial calendar year, during the Lease Term, an amount equal to the Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes for such calendar year or partial calendar year. In the case of the calendar year of the Commencement Date, Landlord shall provide such notice prior to the Commencement Date. The Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes shall be estimated annually by Landlord, and written notice thereof shall be given to Tenant prior to the beginning of each calendar year. Tenant shall pay to Landlord each month, at the same time the Monthly Rental Installment is due, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes. If the cost of utility, janitorial or other services increase during a calendar year, Landlord may increase the estimated Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes during such year by giving Tenant written notice to that effect, and thereafter Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in each of the remaining months of such year, an amount equal to the amount of such increase in the estimated Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes for the remainder of the year divided by the number of months remaining in such year. Within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a statement showing the actual Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the aforementioned statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, or Landlord shall credit against the next rent payment or payments due from Tenant, as the case may be, the difference between the actual Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes for the preceding calendar year and the estimated amount paid by Tenant to Landlord during such year. In addition, Tenant shall pay, before delinquency, any and all Real Estate Taxes as defined in Section 3.02.D, above, directly to the appropriate taxing authority. If Tenant fails for any reason to pay the Real Estate Taxes when same is due and payable, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay the Real Estate Taxes directly to the taxing authority and Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for the cost thereof. Such amount shall accrue interest from the date Landlord pays such amount, pursuant to Section 3.04, below, shall include any penalties, late fees and any interest assessed due to such delinquency. Tenant or its accountants shall have the right to inspect, at reasonable time and in a reasonable manner, during the one hundred twenty (120) day period following the delivery of Landlord's statement of the actual amount of the Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes, such of Landlord's books of account and records as pertain to and contain information concerning such costs and expenses for the Building for the prior calendar year in order to verify the amounts thereof. In the event the first audit discloses (i) errors made during the prior calendar year which, when totaled, indicate that the sum overcharged to and paid by Tenant, exceeds five percent (5%) of the Annual Rental Adjustment excluding Real Estate Taxes plus Landlord's Share of Operating Expenses (the "Total Expenses"), the audit shall be at the expense of Landlord, not to exceed Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00), or (ii) no errors or an error which equals or is less than five percent (5%) of the Total Expenses, the audit shall be at the expense of Tenant. For each subsequent audit, where the audit discloses errors exceeding five percent (5%) of the Total Expenses, Landlord shall pay for such audit and, if the audit discloses errors equal to or less than five percent (5%) of the Total Expenses, Tenant shall pay the costs of the audit. If Landlord spends more than eight (8) hours to accommodate Tenant's right to audit hereunder, Tenant shall also pay to Landlord as additional rent Seventy-five Dollars ($75.00) per hour for each additional hour that Tenant's audit takes of Landlord's property manager's or asset manager's time, provided such audit discloses no error or an error greater than five percent (5%) of the Total Expenses. The results of the audit (regardless of the degree of the error, if any) shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord shall thereafter, if appropriate, change its method of calculating the Operating Expenses consistent with the results of the audit. Tenant agrees to hold the information obtained from such audit confidential and shall not disclose the same without Landlord's express written permission except as necessary to enforce the Lease or protect Tenant's rights hereunder. If Tenant shall not elect to cause an audit within the time period permitted hereby, then Landlord's statement shall be conclusively deemed to have been approved and accepted by Tenant. Pending resolution of any dispute with respect to statements of Tenant's Annual Rental Adjustment, Tenant shall pay its Annual Rental Adjustment as shown on such statement, and upon final determination of the amount of Tenant's Annual Rental Adjustment, Landlord shall promptly refund any overpayment to Tenant or Tenant shall promptly pay any amount due to Landlord, as applicable.
Tenant’s Share The term “Tenant’s Share” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing Tenant’s Gross Leasable Area by the Building Gross Leasable Area, which as of the Effective Date is the percentage identified in Section G of the Summary.
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.
Landlord’s Entry Landlord and its authorized representatives may at all reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to Tenant enter the Premises to: (a) inspect the Premises; (b) exercise and perform Landlord's rights and obligations under this Lease; (c) post notices of non-responsibility or other protective notices available under the Laws; (d) show the Premises to current or prospective mortgagees, or to prospective purchasers of the Property; or (e) during the last 12 months of the Term, show the Premises to prospective tenants. Landlord, in the event of any emergency, may enter the Premises at any time without notice to Tenant. If Landlord receives prior written notification from Tenant that specified areas within the Premises contain confidential materials, then Landlord shall not enter such portions of the Premises unless accompanied by a representative of Tenant except (i) in case of an emergency, or (ii) if Tenant authorizes Landlord to enter such portions of the Premises without accompaniment of Tenant's representative. Landlord's entry into the Premises is not to be construed as a forcible or unlawful entry into, or detainer of, the Premises or as an eviction of Tenant from all or any part of the Premises. Subject to Section 9.3 below, Tenant will also permit Landlord (or its designees) to erect, install, use, maintain, replace and repair pipes, cables, conduits, plumbing and vents, and telephone, electric and other wires or other items, in, to and through the Premises if Landlord reasonably determines that such activities are necessary for properly operating and maintaining the Building.
Base Rent Lessee shall pay Base Rent and other rent or charges, as the same may be adjusted from time to time, to Lessor in lawful money of the United States, without offset or deduction, on or before the day on which it is due under the terms of this Lease. Base Rent and all other rent and charges for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one full month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of the month involved. Payment of Base Rent and other charges shall be made to Lessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or at such other addresses as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing to Lessee.
Net Rent It is the intent of the Landlord and Tenant that this Lease shall yield, net to Landlord, the Base Rent specified and all Additional Rent and charges in each month during the term of the Lease, and that all costs, expenses and obligations of every kind relating to the Leased Premises shall be paid by the Tenant, unless expressly assumed by the Landlord.
