Additional Rent Beginning with the commencement date of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord in addition to the Basic Rent and as Additional Rent the following:
(a) Tenant's proportionate share of all Taxes relating to the Complex as set forth in Paragraph 12, and
(b) Tenant's proportionate share of all insurance premiums and deductibles relating to the Complex, as set forth in Paragraph 15, and
(c) Tenant's proportionate share of expenses for the operation, management, maintenance and repair of the Building (including common areas of the Building) and Common Areas of the Complex in which the Premises are located as set forth in Paragraph 7, and
(d) All charges, costs and expenses, which Tenant is required to pay hereunder, together with all interest and penalties, costs and expenses including attorneys' fees and legal expenses, that may accrue thereto in the event of Tenant's failure to pay such amounts, and all damages, reasonable costs and expenses which Landlord may incur by reason of default of Tenant or failure on Tenant's part to comply with the terms of this Lease. In the event of nonpayment by Tenant of Additional Rent Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies with respect thereto as Landlord has for nonpayment of rent. The Additional Rent due hereunder shall be paid to Landlord or Landlord's agent (i) within five days for taxes and insurance and within thirty days for all other Additional Rent items after presentation of invoice from Landlord or Landlord's agent setting forth such Additional Rent and/or (ii) at the option of Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, in advance, Tenant's pro rata share of an amount estimated by Landlord to be Landlord's approximate average monthly expenditure for such Additional Rent items, which estimated amount shall be reconciled within 120 days of the end of each calendar year or more frequently if Landlord so elects to do so at Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, as compared to Landlord's actual expenditure for said Additional Rent items, with Tenant paying to Landlord, upon demand, any amount of actual expenses expended by Landlord in excess of said estimated amount, or Landlord crediting to Tenant (providing Tenant is not in default in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease) any amount of estimated payments made by Tenant in excess of Landlord's actual expenditures for said Additional Rent items. The respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this paragraph shall survive the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, and if the term hereof shall expire or shall otherwise terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the actual Additional Rent incurred for the calendar year in which the term hereof expires or otherwise terminates shall be determined and settled on the basis of the statement of actual Additional Rent for such calendar year and shall be prorated in the proportion which the number of days in such calendar year preceding such expiration or termination bears to 365.
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.
Base Rent Purchaser will receive a credit at Closing for the prorated amount of all base or fixed rent payable pursuant to the Leases and all Additional Rents (collectively, “Rent”) previously paid to, or collected by, Seller and attributable to any period following the Closing Date. Rents are “Delinquent” when they were due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Closing Date. Delinquent Rent shall not be prorated at Closing. All Rent collected by Purchaser or Seller from each tenant from and after Closing will be applied as follows: (i) first, to Delinquent Rent owed for the month in which the Closing Date occurs (the “Closing Month”), (ii) second, to any accrued Rents owing to Purchaser, and (iii) third, to Delinquent Rents owing to Seller for the period prior to Closing. Any Rent collected by Purchaser and due Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller. Any Rent collected by Seller and due Purchaser shall be promptly remitted to Purchaser. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to collect Delinquent Rents owed to Seller in the ordinary course of its business; provided, however, that Seller hereby retains the right to pursue any tenant under the Leases for any Rent and other sums due Seller for period attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Property; and provided further, however, Seller (i) shall be required to notify Purchaser in writing of Seller’s intention to commence or pursue any legal proceedings; and (ii) shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against any tenant seeking eviction of such tenant or the termination of the underlying Lease. “Additional Rents” shall mean any and all amounts due from tenants for operating expenses, common area maintenance charges, taxes, shared utility charges, management fees, insurance costs, other comparable expenses and pass-through charges and any other tenant charges. The provisions of this Section 14.5 shall survive the Closing and the delivery of any conveyance documentation.
Rent Rents, revenue and other income from the Property actually collected as of the Closing with respect to the Leases shall be prorated through Escrow as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date with Seller entitled to the prorated portion of such items attributable to the period prior to such date and time and Buyer entitled to the prorated portion of such items as of and following such date and time. Any prepaid rent paid by the Tenants pursuant to the Leases shall be credited to Buyer. If any rent or other payments under the Leases are in arrears as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall use reasonable efforts following the Closing to collect such rent or other payments provided that in no event shall Buyer be obligated to commence litigation or expend funds to effect collection. Nothing in this Section 10.1.1 shall restrict Seller's right to collect delinquent rents directly from a Tenant by any legal means; provided, however, that Seller shall have no right to terminate a Lease or disturb a Tenant's possession. Delinquent rent collected by Seller from a Tenant subsequent to the Closing shall be promptly paid to Buyer to the extent that Buyer is entitled to such rent in connection with the period on and after the Closing Date, and delinquent rent collected by Buyer from a Tenant subsequent to the Closing Date shall be promptly paid to Seller to the extent that Seller is entitled to such rent pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement relating to the period prior to the Closing Date. Seller and Buyer agree that all rent from Tenants received by Seller or Buyer following Closing shall be applied first to current rent, then to delinquent rent, if any, for any period following the Closing, and then to delinquent rent, if any, for periods prior to Closing.
