Sublease Agreement Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby represent that a true and complete copy of the Sublease Agreement is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A.
Assignment; Sublease TRANSFER, LIEN Lessee shall not sublicense any part of the Premises, or assign, transfer or encumber in any manner this Lease Agreement or any right, privilege, license or interest conferred hereby. Paramount may assign or otherwise transfer this Lease Agreement or any portion hereof from time to time, and such transfer shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns. It is agreed that Paramount is contracting the technical skills and expertise of the management and employees of Lessee and any significant change in ownership or management of Lessee shall require the consent of Paramount as if such change constituted an assignment of this Lease Agreement. Neither this Lease Agreement, nor any right, privilege, license or interest conferred hereby shall be transferable by operation of law, by reason of any bankruptcy, bankruptcy act, insolvency, receivership proceedings, attachment, execution, other judicial process or sale by or against Lessee, whether any of the same be voluntary or involuntary or judicial proceedings. Lessee shall not permit any lien to be imposed upon the Premises or upon any structures or improvements thereon. In the event a lien is imposed, Lessee shall cause it to be discharged promptly. Lessee shall indemnify Paramount for any loss, expense or cost incurred by it in connection with any such lien. Paramount retains the right to create, or permit mortgages, trust deeds, or other encumbrances to be imposed against and upon the Premises, any improvements thereon or interests therein, except against property owned by Lessee, which encumbrances, including principal, interest and costs and expenses in connection therewith, shall be prior to and superior to the interest of Lessee hereunder, and Lessee hereby agrees that this Lease Agreement is subject and subordinate to any such mortgage, trust deed or other encumbrance.
Required Sublease Provisions Any sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the applicable Property, or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (x) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (y) in the case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1.
Overstandard Tenant Use If Tenant uses water, electricity, heat or air conditioning in excess of that supplied by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon billing, the cost of such excess utility consumption, the cost of the installation, operation, and maintenance of equipment which is required to be installed in order to supply such excess consumption; and, to the extent no previously installed, Landlord may install devices to separately sub-meter any increased use and in such event Tenant shall pay the increased cost directly to Landlord, on demand, at the rates charged by the public utility company furnishing the same, including the cost of such additional metering (or sub-metering) devices. Tenant’s use of electricity shall never exceed the capacity of the feeders to the Property or the risers or wiring installation; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right, subject to the terms of Article 8, to increase such capacity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant may operate the HVAC within the Premises at its discretion; provided, however, if Tenant desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning during hours other than those for which Landlord is obligated to supply such utilities pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual cost of supplying chilled water and gas to the Premises during non-Building Hours at the actual rates charged by the utilities, which cost shall be equitably prorated among all Building occupants (other than the Bank) operating HVAC during the same non-Building Hours. For purposes of an example, Exhibit K, attached hereto, sets forth the calculation of such actual utilities costs, with the actual calculation being subject to the actual rates charged by the utilities. Landlord shall, at its sole cost, as part of the Core and Shell Work, provide a cloud-based software system (Workspeed) to allow Tenant to control Tenant’s after-hours HVAC.
Term of Sublease The term (the “Term”) of this Sublease shall commence on the date that Sublessor has received all of the following: (a) a copy of this Sublease Agreement executed by Sublessee and Sublessor; (b) an executed copy of the Lessor’s and Guarantor’s consent to this Sublease; and (c) an executed copy of a Guaranty from Duke University guaranteeing the payment of the Base Rent and Additional Rent (each as defined below) under this Sublease for the time period specified in the Guaranty (the “Commencement Date”), and shall end on the 1st day of September, 2006, (or until such term shall sooner cease or expire as hereinafter provided) (the “Termination Date”). Possession of the Subleased Premises shall be delivered to Sublessee on the Commencement Date. The parties agree that the consent by Lessor and Guarantor shall include (i) a consent to the proposed use by Sublessee of the Subleased Premises as set forth in Section 4 of this Sublease; (ii) a consent to the upfit of the Shell Space at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense, subject to (A) the approval of Lessor of the plans for such upfit; (B) the plans shall provide that the upfit will be performed and Sublessee shall perform the upfit in a good and workmanlike manner using materials that are substantially similar and of better or equal quality to those presently contained in the Subleased Premises; (C) the plans shall provide and Sublessee shall use contractors and engineers that are licensed in North Carolina and are qualified to perform the work to prepare the Subleased Premises for its intended use, each as reasonably acceptable to Lessor; (D) Sublessee shall not commence any such work without first delivering to Lessor a policy or policies of workers’ compensation and commercial general liability insurance naming Lessor as an additional insured; (E) Sublessee and Sublessor warrant that any upfit installed by Sublessee will not violate the permitted use of the Subleased Premises and will materially comply with all applicable building codes and zoning laws and will not impact the structure of the Shell Space; (F) Sublessee shall furnish Lessor with all permits required prior to commencement of the upfit work and all certificates and approvals with respect to the upfit as may be required by any governmental authority and deliver to the Lessor properly executed general and subcontractor affidavits stating that all laborers and materialmen have been paid in full and final waivers of liens and lien releases from all general contractors and subcontractors who have performed the upfit or furnished materials to the Subleased Premises as a result of the upfit; and (G) Sublessee, at its expense, shall deliver within 30 days after completion of the upfit the as built plans for the Shell Space to the Lessor; (iii) a waiver by Lessor of any obligation of Sublessee or Sublessor to restore the Subleased Premises to the condition that existed prior to the Commencement Date or the commencement date of the Lease, respectively; provided, however, that all tenant upfit (including but not limited to Tenant Upfit), case work, the heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment located on the Subleased Premises, work above the ceiling of the Shell Space installed by Sublessee, and all Lessor Trade Fixtures (as defined below) shall remain on the Subleased Premises at the termination of Sublessee’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises without compensation to Sublessee, unless Lessor requests the removal of same at the time Lessor approves such installations. For purposes of this Sublease, “Lessor Trade Fixtures” means the building management system, flow optometers, manifolds, mirrors, stainless steel tables and stainless steel workbenches located on the Subleased Premises as of the Commencement Date of this Sublease and shall not be deemed to include any enterprise management systems, including without limitation any material resource planning systems or any manufacturing execution systems installed by Sublessee. In addition, on or before November 10, 2000, Lessor shall have delivered to Sublessee an agreement to lease the Subleased Premises directly from Lessor upon the expiration of the term of this Sublease upon terms that are satisfactory to the Sublessee (the “Additional Lease”). If Lessor fails to give such consent and deliver the Additional Lease by December 15, 2000, then Sublessee may cancel this Sublease by giving written notice of cancellation to Sublessor. Neither party shall have liability to the other for any termination or cancellation under this Section 2, unless such party by its willful act caused Lessor to refuse timely to consent to this Sublease.
Master Lease A. All the obligations contained in the Master Lease conferred and imposed upon Sublessor (as Tenant therein) shall be borne by Sublessor and Sublessee in accordance with the Sublessor's Percentage and the Sublessee's Percentage, respectively, except as modified and amended by this Sublease, and all rights and privileges contained in the Master Lease conferred upon Sublessor (as Tenant therein), are hereby conferred and imposed upon Sublessee, to the extent of Sublessee's Percentage. Sublessor covenants and agrees it will make payment of the rentals reserved under the Master Lease as and when due, will perform Sublessor's insurance obligations under the Master Lease, and will otherwise fully and faithfully perform the terms and conditions of the Master Lease with respect to the Sublessor's Percentage. Sublessee covenants and agrees to otherwise fully and faithfully perform the terms and conditions of the Master Lease and the Sublease on its part to be performed. Neither the Sublessor nor Sublessee shall do or cause to be done any act which would or might cause the Master Lease, or the rights of Sublessor as tenant under the Master Lease to be endangered, cancelled, terminated, forfeited or surrendered, or which would or might cause Sublessor to be in default thereunder or liable for any damage, claim or penalty. Sublessee agrees, as an express inducement for Sublessor executing this Sublease, that if there is any conflict between the provisions of the Master Lease and this Sublease which would permit Sublessee to do or cause to be done any act which is prohibited by the Master Lease then the provisions of the Master Lease shall prevail.
Condition of Subleased Premises (a) Subtenant shall maintain and repair the Subleased Premises in a manner consistent with Sublandlord’s obligations under the Lease. Sublandlord shall have the right to enter the Subleased Premises from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to Subtenant, during normal business hours and escorted by Subtenant (if Subtenant makes such escort reasonably available). Sublandlord’s right of entry shall include the right of inspection to confirm that Subtenant is in compliance with all applicable maintenance and repair obligations set forth in the Lease. In the event that Sublandlord determines, in Sublandlord’s reasonable opinion, that Subtenant is in default of any maintenance and/or repair obligation set forth in the Lease, and such default may incur liability to Sublandlord upon the surrender of the Subleased Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (a “Required Repair Item”), then Sublandlord shall have the right to notify Subtenant of any such Required Repair Items. Subtenant shall be obligated to cure such Required Repair Items within thirty (30) days of such notice from Sublandlord, or, if such Required Repair Items cannot be reasonably completed in such thirty (30) day period, such longer period as reasonably necessary to cure such Required Repair Items, so long as Subtenant has commenced such cure and diligently pursues such cure to completion. In no event shall Sublandlord’s rights hereunder impose any additional and/or greater repair or maintenance standards from those set forth in the Lease. In the event Subtenant fails to cure such Required Repair Items as set forth above, then such failure shall be deemed a default under this Sublease, entitling Sublandlord to exercise any of its rights and remedies herein, including, without limitation, the self help rights set forth in Section 6(b) above.
Assignment, Subleasing The LESSEE shall not assign or sublet the whole or any part of the leased premises without LESSOR's prior written consent. Notwithstanding such consent, LESSEE shall remain liable to LESSOR for the payment of all rent and for the full performance of the covenants and conditions of this lease.
Sublease Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the conditions set forth herein, the Subleased Premises.
Assignment of Sublease Any approved sublease will be assigned to LESSOR as security. LESSEE will deliver the original counterpart of the sublease to LESSOR and make any filings necessary to protect LESSOR's security interest.
