Rent Adjustment Basic Assumptions Incorrect. Except to the extent that doing so would cause Lessor to recognize income other than "rents from real property" as defined in Section 856(d) of the Code, notwithstanding anything herein (other than Article 19) to the contrary, if (i) the facts and circumstances underlying the documented, basic assumptions upon which both Lessor and Lessee have relied in determining the Base Rent, the Suite Revenue Breakpoint, and the Percentage Rent payable hereunder become materially incorrect solely as a result of (A) a decision to re-brand the Hotel that is made after the Commencement Date, (B) the scope or cost of substantial renovations or other capital improvements to the Hotel, or (C) the implementation of any other hotel repositioning strategies (that were not planned as of the Commencement Date) resulting in significant disruption of the operations of the Hotel (collectively, a "Repositioning"), and (ii) Lessor and Lessee so agree in writing, then Lessor and Lessee shall, in good faith, negotiate modifications to the Base Rent, Suite Revenue Breakpoint and Percentage Rent to adjust (i.e., increase, decrease or reallocate among revenue categories) such Base Rent, Suite Revenue Breakpoint and Percentage Rent to reflect such change in basic assumptions for the affected periods, using the same methodology and other basic assumptions as were initially utilized in determining the Base Rent, Suite Revenue Breakpoint and Percentage Rent hereunder. If Lessor and Lessee are unable to agree, within thirty (30) days after the date of written certification from either Lessee or Lessor to the other party that a good faith dispute exists, as to the existence of the occurrence of a Repositioning or the adjustments to be made to the amounts or percentages for the Base Rent, Suite Revenue Breakpoint and Percentage Rent hereunder as a result of any repositioning, the dispute may be submitted by either party to arbitration under Section 25.2 hereof for resolution (during which period Lessee shall continue to pay Base Rent and Percentage Rent as required under Section 3.1 of this Lease); provided, however, that for purposes of applying the procedures in Section 25.3 to such arbitration, the target deadline therein for concluding the arbitration shall be shortened from ninety (90) days to thirty (30) days.
Rent Review 3.1 If the reference base used to compile the Index shall change after today’s date the figure taken to be shown in the Index after the change shall be the figure which would have been shown in the Index if the reference base current at today’s date had been retained
3.2 If it becomes impossible by reason of any change after today’s date in the methods used to compile the Index or for any other reason whatever to calculate the revised Rent by reference to the Index or if any dispute or question whatever shall arise between the parties with respect to the amount of the revised Rent or the determination of the revised Rent such matter shall at the option of the Landlord be determined by an independent valuer to be appointed either by agreement between the parties or in the absence of agreement by the President for the time being of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (or his duly appointed deputy or any person authorised by him to make appointments on his behalf) on the application of either party who shall have full power to determine on such dates as he shall deem apposite what would have been the increase in the Index had it continued on the same basis and in view of the information assumed to be available for the operation of this rent review or (if that determination shall also be impossible) shall determine a reasonable revised Rent for the Property on such dates having regard to the purposes and intent of the provisions in this Lease for the review of the Rent 4 The Landlord shall give written notice to the Tenant of the amount of the revised Rent and thereafter memoranda (in such form as the Landlord shall reasonably require) recording the amount of the revised Rent shall be signed by or on behalf of the Landlord and the Tenant and annexed to this Lease and the Counterpart thereof and the parties shall bear their own costs of this procedure 5 If the new Rent payable on and from any Review Date has not been agreed by that Review Date Rent shall thereafter be payable at the rate in force immediately before the Review Date and forthwith upon the revised Rent being ascertained the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord an amount representing the difference (“the Shortfall”) between:-
5.1 the amount of the yearly Rent which would have been payable for the period from that Review Date until the next payment date following the date of ascertainment if the revised Rent had been ascertained at that Review Date and
5.2 together with interest at the rate of 2% below the Interest Rate on the Shortfall calculated on a day to day basis upon those parts of the Shortfall which would have been payable if the revised Rent had been ascertained at that Review Date
Minimum Annual Rent Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Minimum Annual Rent in equal monthly installments in the amount set forth in Section 1(d) (as increased at the beginning of each lease year as set forth in Section 1(d)), in advance, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, without notice, demand or setoff, at Landlord's address designated at the beginning of this lease unless Landlord designates otherwise; provided that rent for the first full month shall be paid at the signing of this lease. If the Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the rent shall be apportioned pro rata on a per diem basis for the period from the Commencement Date until the first day of the following calendar month and shall be paid on or before the Commencement Date. As used in this lease, the term "LEASE YEAR" means the period from the Commencement Date through the succeeding 12 full calendar months (including for the first lease year any partial month from the Commencement Date until the first day of the first full calendar month) and each successive 12 month period thereafter during the Term.
Rent Adjustments 4.1 For the purpose of this Article 4, the following terms are defined as follows:
Annual Fixed Rent Tenant covenants and agrees to pay the Annual Fixed Rent in Section 1.1 to Landlord in advance in equal monthly installments commencing on the Term Commencement Date (if not the first day of a month) and thereafter on the first day of each calendar month during the Term. All payments shall be due without billing or demand and without deduction, setoff or counterclaim, except as expressly set forth in this Lease. Tenant shall make payment for any portion of a month at the beginning or end of the Term. All payments shall be payable to Landlord at Landlord’s address, as specified in Section 1.1, or to such other entities at such other places as Landlord may from time to time designate. Without limiting the foregoing, except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant’s obligation so to pay Rent (as hereinafter defined) shall not be discharged or otherwise affected by any law or regulation now or hereafter applicable to the Premises, or any other restriction on Tenant’s use, or any casualty or taking, or any failure by Landlord to perform any covenant contained herein, or any other occurrence; and, except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant waives all rights now or hereafter existing to terminate or cancel this Lease or quit or surrender the Premises or any part thereof, or to assert any defense in the nature of constructive eviction to any action seeking to recover Rent. The foregoing notwithstanding, if Landlord fails for any reason within Landlord’s control to provide any service to be supplied by Landlord under the Lease which is necessary for Tenant’s reasonable use of the Premises (such as HVAC, elevator service, electricity, water, or structural repairs), and Tenant is unable to use the Premises on account of such failure, Tenant shall be entitled to a proportional abatement of Annual Fixed Rent and Additional Charges for Operating Expenses and Taxes based on the portion of the Premises which cannot be used by Tenant. This abatement shall begin on the fourth (4th) consecutive Business Day from Tenant’s written notice to Landlord of the failure. The abatement shall end when the services are restored sufficiently to permit use of the Premises.
Fixed Rent (a) Commencing as of the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent to Landlord, or Landlord’s designee as designated in a written notice to Tenant at such address as Landlord shall from time to time designate by written notice to Tenant. Except as hereinafter provided, the Fixed Rent shall be due and payable in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2 hereto for the respective periods shown on such Schedule 2. Fixed Rent shall be due and payable in advance on the first day of each month (or if such first day is not a business day, the first business day of each month), commencing on the Date of Rent Commencement, during the Term (each such date being referred to herein as a “Due Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, from the Date of Rent Commencement until Tenant is notified otherwise by Landlord and Lender, Fixed Rent shall be paid by wire transfer to the account specified in the rent direction letter from Landlord to Tenant delivered concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Lease.
(b) If the Lease Commencement Date or Rent Commencement Date shall be on any day other than the first day of a calendar month, then all amounts to be paid on such dates shall be prorated on a per diem basis.
(c) If any installment of Fixed Rent is not paid on the respective Due Date, Tenant shall pay Landlord interest on such overdue payment at the Lease Default Rate, accruing from the Due Date of such payment until the same is paid; provided, however, the foregoing obligation to pay the Default Rate shall not be required for the first late payment of Fixed Rent in any calendar year so long as such delay in payment does not continue for longer than a period of ten (10) days. All Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable in U.S. Dollars.
(d) Commencing as of the Lease Commencement Date, all taxes, costs, expenses, and other amounts which Tenant is required to pay pursuant to this Lease (other than Fixed Rent), together with every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added in accordance herewith for non-payment or late payment thereof shall constitute additional rent (“Additional Rent”). All Additional Rent due to Landlord (or its designee) shall be paid directly by Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord gives written notice that payment is due, unless otherwise provided in this Lease, in which case, the Additional Rent shall be paid as otherwise so provided. Unless otherwise provided herein, Additional Rent payable by Tenant to a third (3rd) party (i.e., utility charges, maintenance contracts, supply contracts, vendor contracts, etc.) shall be paid as and when the same shall be due and payable pursuant to Tenant’s agreement or other arrangement with the applicable third (3rd) party. If Tenant shall fail to pay any such Additional Rent or any other sum due hereunder when the same shall become due (after the expiration of the applicable cure periods therefor), Landlord shall have all rights, powers and remedies with respect thereto as are provided herein or by Law in the case of non-payment of any Fixed Rent and shall, except as expressly provided herein, have the right (after the expiration of the applicable cure periods thereof), not sooner than ten (10) days after notice to Tenant (except in the event of an emergency, as reasonably determined by Landlord, in which case prior notice shall not be necessary) of its intent to do so, to pay the same on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall repay such amounts to Landlord on demand. Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest at the Lease Default Rate on all overdue Additional Rent and other sums due hereunder, in each case paid by Landlord or Lender on behalf of Tenant, from the date of payment by Landlord or Lender until repaid by Tenant.
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.
Annual Rent LESSEE covenants and agrees to pay as rent to LESSOR the sum of
Rent Payment Tenant shall pay the Base Rent for the premises and any additional rent provided herein without deduction or offset. Rent for any partial month during the lease term shall be prorated to reflect the number of days during the month that Tenant occupies the premises. Additional rent means amounts determined under section 19 of this lease and any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this lease. Rent not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of one-and-one-half per month until paid. Landlord may at its option impose a late charge of $.05 for each $1 of rent for rent payments made more than 10 days late in lieu of interest for the first month of delinquency, without waiving any other remedies available for default. Failure to impose a late charge shall not be a waiver of Landlord's rights hereunder.
Rental Rate The Lessee shall pay rent to the Lessor for the premises at the following rate: Payment shall be made at the end of each month upon submission of properly executed vouchers.
