The Lessee 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 the Lessor of operating and maintaining the Premises, and shall include, without limitation, real estate and personal property taxes and assessments, management fee(s), heating, air conditioning, HVAC, 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 Premises and related parking areas, unless expressly excluded from operating expenses.
Additional Rent Undertenant acknowledges that pursuant to Paragraph 2.2, Additional Rental, of the Prime Lease, Tenant is obligated to pay to Prime Landlord additional rent on account of Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for the Building, as more particularly described in such Paragraph. Additionally Undertenant acknowledges that pursuant to Paragraph 5, Additional Rental, of the Sublease, Underlandlord is obligated to pay to Tenant additional rent on account of the same Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for the Building. Undertenant shall pay to Underlandlord, with its monthly payment of Base Rent from and after the Rent Commencement Date, Undertenant's proportionate share (being fixed at 35.41%), provided that, for the purpose of this Secondary Sublease, the Undertenant's Base Year shall be the 2004 calendar year. Underlandlord shall deliver to Undertenant promptly after receipt thereof, any documentation and statement of Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes delivered to Underlandlord by Tenant or Prime Landlord. Additional Rent payable hereunder for any partial calendar month at the beginning or end of the Secondary Sublease Term shall be pro-rated on a daily basis. Upon Undertenant's written request, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease, Underlandlord shall cause an audit to be conducted of Prime Landlord's books and records. Said audit shall be conducted at the sole cost and expense of Undertenant. All demands made by Underlandlord for payment of additional rent by Undertenant hereunder, shall be accompanied by appropriate supporting documentation, to the extent such supporting documentation is provided to Underlandlord.
Impositions Subject to Article VIII relating to permitted contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and file all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord's net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock, and Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies. If any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement and/or gross receipts tax returns for Rent received by Landlord from Tenant, Landlord shall file the same with reasonable cooperation from Tenant. Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to prepare a protest which Landlord shall file, at Tenant's written request. All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty. Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided, however, that Landlord's failure to give any such Notice shall in no way diminish Tenant's obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions (except that Landlord shall be responsible for any interest or penalties incurred as a result of Landlord's failure promptly to forward the same).
Real Property Taxes Tenant shall pay directly to the applicable tax collector ("Tax Collector") and prior to delinquency all Real Property Taxes (as hereinafter defined) which become due during the Lease Term, as Additional Rent. The term "Real Property Taxes" as used herein shall mean (1) all taxes, assessments, levies, and other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, general and special, foreseen and unforeseen (including all installments of principal and interest required to pay any general or special assessments for public improvements and any increases resulting from reassessments caused by any change in ownership of the Premises or the Project) now or hereafter imposed by any governmental or quasi- governmental authority or special district having the direct or indirect power to tax or levy assessments, which are levied or assessed against, or with respect to (a) the value, occupancy, or use of, all or any portion of the Premises or the Project (as now constructed or as may at any time hereafter be constructed, altered, or otherwise changed) or Landlord's interest therein, including Landlord's interest in this Lease; or (b) any improvements located on the Premises or the Project (regardless of ownership); and (2) all area wide taxes, charges, levies or fees imposed by reason of environmental regulation or other governmental control of the Project. If at any time during the Lease Term the taxation or assessment of the Project prevailing as of the Commencement Date shall be altered so that in lieu of or in addition to any Real Property Taxes described above there shall be levied, assessed or imposed (whether by reason of a change in the method of taxation or assessment, creation of a new tax or charge, or any other cause) an alternate or additional tax or charge (a) on the value, use or occupancy of the Project or Landlord's interest therein; (b) on or measured by the gross receipts, income or rentals from the Project; (c) on Landlord's business of leasing the Premises; or (d) computed in any manner with respect to the operation of the Premises or the Project, then any such tax or charge, however designated, shall be included within the meaning of the term "Real Property Taxes". Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Real Property Taxes" shall not include estate, inheritance, gift or franchise taxes of Landlord or the federal or state net income tax imposed on Landlord's income from all sources. Notwithstanding anything within this Paragraph 10.1, it is agreed that if any special assessments for capital improvements are assessed, and if Landlord has the option to either pay the entire assessment in cash or go to bond, Landlord shall elect to go to bond so that Tenant will pay such special assessment in installments rather than in a lump sum. It is additionally agreed that Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to contest with any taxing authority or appellate body the imposition or amount of any Real Property Tax, but any such contest shall not excuse Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder as to paying any such Real Property Tax when payable hereunder. In addition, Landlord agrees to consult with Tenant in advance of any contemplated change in ownership of the Project so as to have the benefit of Tenant's recommendations, if any, as to any possible way to avoid any reassessment of the Project, but regardless of any such consultation, Landlord shall have no obligation to Tenant to follow, or any liability to Tenant for failing to follow, any recommendations of Tenant.

Percentage Rent Tenant shall (i) not later than the tenth (10th) day after the close of each calendar month, deliver to Landlord at the Center office a written statement certified under oath by Tenant or an officer of Tenant, showing Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales made in such calendar month; and (ii) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each Lease Year or Partial Lease Year, deliver to Landlord at the Center office a statement of Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales for such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year the correctness of which is certified to by Tenant or an officer of Tenant. If Tenant fails to prepare and deliver any statement of Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales required hereunder, within the time or times specified above, then Landlord shall have the right, in addition to the other rights and remedies set forth in this Lease, (a) to collect from Tenant a sum which shall be $250.00 which shall be deemed liquidated damages for administrative and overhead expenses resulting from such failure, and (b) to estimate Tenant’s Adjusted Gross Sales for any non-reported period and bill Tenant’s Percentage Rent accordingly. Landlord reserves the right, at Xxxxxxxx’s option, to adjust Percentage Rent xxxxxxxx when actual Adjusted Gross Sales reports are received. Percentage Rent shall become due and payable in each Lease Year on the fifteenth (15th) day of the month immediately following the month during which Adjusted Gross Sales exceed the Sales Breakpoint for such Lease Year, and thereafter shall be paid monthly on all additional Adjusted Gross Sales made during the remainder of such Lease Year, such payments to be made concurrently with the submission by Tenant to Landlord of the written statement of monthly Adjusted Gross Sales as provided for herein. Tenant will preserve for at least three (3) years at Tenant’s notice address all original books and records disclosing information pertaining to Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales and such other information respecting Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales as Landlord requires, including, but not limited to, cash register tapes, sales slips, sales checks, gross income and sales tax returns, bank deposit records, sales journals and other supporting data including itemized records of permitted exclusions. Landlord and its agents shall have the right during business hours to examine and audit such books and records preserved by Xxxxxx. If such examination or audit discloses a liability for Percentage Rent three percent (3%) or more in excess of the Percentage Rent paid by Tenant for any period and at least $500.00 of Percentage Rent is owed as the result of such audit, or if Tenant’s Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales cannot be verified due to the insufficiency or inadequacy of Tenant’s records, or if Tenant shall have failed to furnish Landlord any monthly statement of Gross Sales and Adjusted Gross Sales during any Lease Year, Tenant shall promptly pay Landlord the cost of said audit. Tenant shall, in any event, pay to Landlord the amount of any deficiency in rents which is disclosed by such audit. If such examination or audit discloses an overpayment of Percentage Rent, then the excess, less the cost of such examination or audit, shall be credited to Xxxxxx’s account. Tenant’s obligation to preserve all original books and records shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term or the earlier termination of this Lease.
