decision of Landlord shall be conclusive;
(b) Public liability insurance, including bodily injury and property
damage, personal injury, contractual liability with respect to all claims,
demands, or actions by any person, firm, or corporation, in any way arising
from, related to, or connected with the conduct and operation of Tenant's
business in the Premises or Tenant's use of the Premises. Such policies shall be
written on a comprehensive basis, with limits not less than $1,000,000.00, and
such higher limits as Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord may require from
time to time, but may not be unreasonably required;
(c) Any other form or forms of insurance as the mortgagees of Landlord
may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for insurance
risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself;
(d) Business interruption insurance in such amounts as will reimburse
the Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earning attributable to all perils
commonly insured against by prudent tenants or attributable to prevention of
access to the Premises or to the Building as a result of such perils.
16.02 Evidence. All policies shall be taken out with insurers acceptable
--------
to Landlord and in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord. Tenant
agrees that certificates of insurance or, if required by Landlord or the
mortgagees of Landlord, copies of each such insurance policy will be delivered
to Landlord as soon as practicable after the placing of the required insurance,
but in no event later than five (5) days after Tenant takes possession of all or
any part of the Leased Premises. All policies shall require that at least
thirty (30) days' prior written notice be delivered to Landlord s by the insurer
prior to termination, cancellation, or material change in such insurance.
16.03 Proceeds. Tenant agrees that in the event of damage or destruction
--------
to the leasehold improvements in the Leased Premises covered by insurance
required to be taken out by Tenant pursuant to this Section, Tenant shall use
the proceeds of the insurance for the purpose of building leasehold improvements
as mutually agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant
cannot agrees as to the new improvements within thirty (30) days, then Tenant
shall replace the identical improvements that were destroyed. In the event of
damage or destruction of the Building entitling the Landlord to terminate this
Lease
16
pursuant to Section 17, then, if the Leased Premises have also been damaged,
Tenant will pay to Landlord al of its insurance proceeds relating to the
leasehold improvements in the Leased Premises, and if the Leased Premises have
not been damaged, Tenant will deliver to Landlord, in accordance with the
provisions of this Lease, the leasehold improvements and the Leased Premises.
SECTION 17
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
---------------------
17.01 Right to Terminate. If the Premises or the Building are damaged by
------------------
fire or other insured casualty, and the insurance proceeds have been made
available by the holder of holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust covering
the Building, the damage shall be repaired by and at the expense of Landlord to
the extent of such insurance proceeds available, provided such repairs can, in
Landlord's reasonable discretion, be completed within one hundred twenty (120)
days after the occurrence of such damage, without the payment of overtime or
other premiums. Until the repairs are completed, the Rent shall be abated in
proportion to the part of the Premises which is unusable by Tenant in the
conduct of its business; provided, however, if the damage is due to the fault or
neglect of tenant or its employees, agents, or invitees, there shall be no
abatement of Rent. If repairs cannot, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, be
made within said one hundred twenty (120) day period, Landlord shall notify
Tenant within sixty (60) days of the date of occurrence of the damage as to
whether or not Landlord elects to make the repairs. If Landlord elects not to
make the repairs, then either party may, by written notice to the other cancel
this lease as of the date of the occurrence of the damage. Except as provided in
this Section 17, there shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of
Landlord by reason of any injury, inconvenience, temporary limitation of access
or interference to or with Tenant's business or property arising from the making
of any necessary repairs, or any alterations or improvements in or to any
portion of the Building or the Premises, or in or to fixtures, appurtenances,
and equipment therein necessitated by the damage. Tenant understands that
Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant's furniture and
furnishings or on any fixtures or equipment removable by Tenant under the
provision of this Lease, and that Landlord shall not be required to repair any
injury or damage caused by fire or other cause, or to make any repairs or
replacements to or of improvement installed in the Premises by or for Tenant at
Tenant's cost.
17.02 Landlord's Insurance. Landlord covenants and agrees that,
--------------------
throughout the Lease Term, it will insure the Building (excluding foundations,
excavations and other noninsurable items) and the machinery, boilers, and
equipment contained therein owned by Landlord (excluding any property with
respect to which Tenant is obliged to insure pursuant
17
to the provisions of Section 16 thereof) against damage by fire and extended
perils coverage in such reasonable amounts as would be carried by a prudent
owner of a similar property in the same locale. Landlord will also, throughout
the Term, carry public liability, property damage and loss of rent insurance
with respect to the operation of the Premises in reasonable amounts as would be
carried by a prudent owner of a similar property in the same locale. Landlord
may, but shall not be obligated to, take out and carry any other form and forms
of insurance as it or the mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably determine to be
advisable. Tenant shall pay for all such insurance carried by Landlord as an
Operating Cost, provided that such insurance is not duplicative of the insurance
obtained pursuant to Section 16.01. Notwithstanding any contribution by Tenant
to the cost of insurance premiums, Tenant acknowledges that it has no right to
receive any proceeds from the insurance policies carried by Landlord, and that
the insurance will be for the sole benefit of Landlord, with no coverage for
Tenant for any risk insured against.
SECTION 18
ENTRY BY LANDLORD
-----------------
Landlord and its agents, upon giving 24 hours notice, shall have the right
to enter the Premises during normal business hours for the purpose of examining
or inspecting the same, to supply any services to be provided by Landlord to
Tenant hereunder, to show same to prospective purchasers or tenants of the
Premises, and to make such alterations, repairs, improvements, or additions,
whether structural or otherwise, to the Premises or to the Building as Landlord
may deem necessary or desirable. Landlord may enter by means of a master key,
without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for
Tenant's property, and without affecting this Lease. Landlord shall use
reasonable efforts on any such entry not to unreasonably interrupt or interfere
with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises. Landlord may enter the Premises
at any time in the case of an emergency.
SECTION 19
DEFAULT BY TENANT
-----------------
18
19.01 Events of Default. Each one of the following events if referred to
-----------------
as an "Event of Default":
(a) Tenant shall fail to make due and punctual payment of Rent or an
other amounts payable hereunder, and such failure shall continue for fifteen
(15) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord.
(b) Tenant shall vacate or abandon the Premises, or remove leasehold
improvements or fixtures constituting property of Landlord;
(c) This Lease shall be transferred to or shall pass to or devolve upon
any other person or party except in the manner set forth in Section 13;
(d) This Lease or the Premises or any part thereof shall be taken upon
execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant, or shall be taken
upon or subject to any attachment at the instance of any creditor of or claimant
against Tenant, and said attachment shall not be discharged or disposed of
within thirty (30) days after the levy;
(e) The filing of any petition or the commencement of any case or
proceeding by the Tenant under any provision or chapter of the Federal
Bankruptcy Act, the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law
relating to insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization; or the adjudication that
the Tenant is insolvent or bankrupt, or the entry of an order for relief under
the Federal Bankruptcy Code with respect to Tenant;
(f) The filing of any petition or the commencement of any case or
proceeding described in Subsection (e) above against the Tenant,
unless the petition and all proceedings initiated thereby are
dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date of the filing; the
filing of an answer by Tenant admitting the allegations of any such
petition; or the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian,
trustee or receiver for all or any assets of the Tenant, unless such
appointment is vacated or dismissed within sixty (60) days from the
date of such appointment or taking of such possession.
(g) Tenant shall fail to take possession of the Premises thirty (30)
days following the earlier of the date the Premises are Ready for Occupancy or
the Commencement date; or
(h) Tenant shall fail to perform any of the other agreements, terms,
covenants or conditions of this Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, and such
non-performance shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice by Landlord to Tenant, or if such performance cannot be reasonably had
within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not in good faith have
commenced such performance within such thirty (30) day period and shall not
thereafter diligently proceed to completion.
19.02 Remedies of Landlord. If any one or more events of default shall
--------------------
happen, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's election, then or at
any time thereafter without demand or notice, to reenter and take possession of
the Premises or any part thereof and
19
repossess the same as Landlord's former estate and expel Tenant and those
claiming through or under Tenant, and remove the effects of both or either,
without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to
any remedies for arrears of rent or breach of covenants or prior conditions and
without terminating this Lease. Should Landlord elect to reenter as provided in
this Subsection, or should Landlord take possession pursuant to legal
proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law including a proceeding
for possession pursuant to Colorado's Forcible Entry and unlawful Detainer
Statutes, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease
either;
(a) (i) Relet the Premises or any part thereof in Landlord's or Tenant's
name, but for the account of Tenant, for a term or terms (which may be greater
or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of
the term of this Lease) and on conditions and upon other terms (which may
include concessions of free rent and alteration and repair of the Premises) as
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may determine, and Landlord may collect and
receive the rents. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises
and maximize the income generated by the Premises. No reentry or taking
possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on
Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such
intention be given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord hereunder or under a
forcible entry and unlawful detainer statute or similar law shall constitute an
election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so
states. Landlord reserves the right following any reentry and/or reletting to
exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice, in
which event the Lease will terminate as specific in the notice.
(ii) If Landlord elects to take possession of the Premises as provided
in this Subsection (a) without terminating the Lease, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord (1) the Rent and other sums due under this Lease which would be payable
if repossession had not occurred, less (2) the net proceeds, if any, of any
reletting of the Premises after deducting all Landlord's expenses in connection
with the reletting, including, but without limitation, all repossession costs,
brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, expenses of employees,
alteration, remodeling and repair costs and expenses of preparation of the
reletting. If, in connection with any reletting, the new lease terms extends
beyond the existing term, or the premises covered include other premises not
part of the Premises, a fair apportionment of the rent received from the
reletting and the expenses incurred in connection with the reletting will be
made in determining the net proceeds received from reletting. In addition, in
determining the net proceeds from reletting, any rent concession will be
apportioned over the term of the new Lease;or
(b) To give Tenant written notice of intention to terminate this
Lease on the date of the notice, or on any later date specified in the notice.
Tenant's right to possession of the Premises shall cease and the Lease shall
thereupon be terminated, except as to Tenant's liability under this Lease, as if
the expiration of the term fixed in the notice were the end of the term
originally demised, including as extended by the exercise of any options granted
to Tenant. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this
Subsection (b), or terminated pursuant to a proceeding for possession under the
Colorado Forcible Entry and
20
Unlawful Detainer Statutes, Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for damages
in an amount equal to the Rent and other sums which would have been owing by
Tenant under this Lease for the balance of the Term had this Lease not been
terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Premises by
Landlord subsequent to the termination, after deducting all Landlord's expenses
in connection with such reletting, including, but without limitation, the
expenses enumerated in Subsection (a) above. Landlord shall be entitled to
collect damages from Tenant monthly on the days on which the Rent and other
amounts would have been payable if this Lease had not been terminated.
19.03 Cumulative Remedies. Suit or suits for the recovery of the Rent and
-------------------
other amounts and damages may be brought by Landlord, from time to time, at
Landlord's election, and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to require
Landlord to await the date when this Lease or its Term would have expired by
limitation had there been no default by Tenant, or no termination, as the case
may be. Each right and remedy provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative and
shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise
including but not limited to suits for injunctive relief and specific
performance. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or
more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the
simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any or all rights or remedies
provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
by statute or otherwise. All such rights and remedies shall be considered
cumulative and non-exclusive. All costs incurred by Landlord in connection with
collecting any Rent or other amounts and damages owing by Tenant pursuant to the
provisions of this Lease, or to enforce any provision of this Lease, including
reasonable attorney's fees from the date such matter is turned over to an
attorney, whether or not one or more actions are commenced by Landlord, shall
also be paid by Tenant to Landlord.
19.04 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict
---------
performance of any agreement, term, covenant or condition of this Lease or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach, and no acceptance of full
or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any breach, shall
constitute a waiver of any breach or of the agreement to be performed or
complied with by Tenant, and no breach shall be waived, altered or modified
except by written instrument executed by Landlord. No waiver of any breach shall
affect or alter this Lease, but each and every agreement, term, covenant and
condition shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then
existing or subsequent breach. Notwithstanding any termination of this Lease,
the same shall continue in force and effect as to any provisions which require
observance or performance by Landlord or Tenant subsequent to such termination.
19.05 Bankruptcy. Nothing contained in this Section 19 shall limit or
----------
prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain as liquidated damages in any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or dissolution proceeding,
an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law governing
such a proceeding, and in effect at the time
21
when such damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount is greater, equal
to or less than the amounts recoverable, either as damages or Rent, referred to
in any of the preceding provisions of this Section. Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Section to the contrary, any such proceeding or action
involving bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or appointment of a receiver or trustee, as set forth
above, shall be considered to be an event of default only when the proceeding,
action or remedy shall be taken or brought by or against the then holder of the
leasehold estate under this Lease.
SECTION 20
TAXES
-----
During the Term hereof, Tenant shall pay, prior to delinquency, all
business and other taxes, charges, notes, duties and assessments levied, and
rates or fees imposed, charged, or assessed against or in respect of Tenant's
occupancy of the Leased Premises or in respect of the personal property, trade
fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and all other personal property of Tenant
contained in the Premises, and shall hold Landlord harmless from and against all
payment of such taxes, charges, notes, duties, assessments, rates, and fees, and
against all loss, costs, charges, and expenses occasioned by or arising from any
and all such taxes, charges, notes, duties, assessments, rates, and fees, any
and all taxes. Tenant shall cause the fixtures, furnishings, equipment and other
personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real and
personal property of Landlord. If any or all of Tenant's fixtures, furnishing,
equipment, and other personal property shall be assessed and taxes with
Landlord's real property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant's share of such
taxes within ten (10) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of a statement
in writing setting forth the amount of such taxes applicable to Tenant's
property. Tenant shall also timely provide Landlord with copies of all personal
property, self-employment, sales, use and unemployment tax returns within thirty
(30) days after they are filed with the appropriate government offices, together
with any correspondence or tax xxxx pertaining to any tax that is not paid when
due according to the taxing authority. Tenant agrees to provide personal
financial statements at regular intervals if so requested by any lender holding
a security interest in the Property or the Building. All of the above documents
shall be considered confidential and only disclosed or used for Landlord's
appropriate business purposes.
SECTION 21
EMINENT DOMAIN
--------------
22
If the Building, or a substantial part thereof, or a substantial part of
the Premises, shall be lawfully taken or condemned (or conveyed under threat of
such taking or condemnation) for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, the
Term of this Lease shall end upon, and not before, the date of the taking of
possession by the condemning authority. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord
Tenant's interest if any, in the award. Current Rent shall be apportioned as of
the date of termination. If any part of the Building, other than the Premises or
not constituting a substantial part of the Premises, shall be so taken or
condemned (or conveyed under threat of such taking or condemnation), or if the
grade of any street adjacent to the Building is changed by any competent
authority and such taking or change of grade makes it necessary or desirable to
substantially remodel or restore the Building, Landlord shall have the right to
cancel this Lease upon not less than sixty (60) days' notice prior to the date
of cancellation designated in the notice. No money or other consideration shall
be payable by Landlord to Tenant for the right of cancellation, and Tenant shall
have no right to share in any condemnation award, or in any judgment for
damages, or in any proceeds of any sale made under any threat of condemnation of
taking. Nothing in this Section shall prevent Tenant from making and pursuing a
claim against the condemning authority in its own right for termination of its
leasehold interest. If this Lease is not canceled, the Lease shall continue in
full force and effect, without abatement or reduction of Rent.
SECTION 22
SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES AND DEEDS OF TRUST
---------------------------------------------
22.01 Lease Subordinate to Mortgages.
------------------------------
(a) This Lease and the rights of Tenant shall be and are hereby made
subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or
hereafter existing against the Building, the Property or both, and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and
to all advances made now or in the future. Although the subordination shall be
self-operating, Tenant, or its successors in interest, shall upon Landlord's
request, execute and deliver upon the demand of Landlord any and all instruments
desired by landlord, subordinating, in the manner reasonable requested by
Landlord, this Lease to any mortgage or deed of trust. Landlord is hereby
irrevocably appointed and authorized as agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to
execute all subordination instruments if Tenant fails to execute the instruments
within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord demanding their execution. The
notice may be given in the manner provided for giving notice below.
(b) Should any mortgage or deed of trust affecting the Building, the
Property or both be foreclosed, then; (I) the liability of the mortgagee,
beneficiary or purchaser at the foreclosure sale to Tenant shall exist only so
long as the mortgagee, beneficiary, or purchaser is the owner of the Building
and/or Property and the liability shall not continue or survive after further
transfer of ownership; and (ii) Tenant shall be deemed to have attorned, as
Tenant
23
under this Lease, to the purchaser at any foreclosure sale and this Lease shall
continue in force and effect as a direct lease between and binding upon Tenant
and the purchaser at any foreclosure sale. As used in this Section 22,
"mortgagee" and "beneficiary" shall include successors and assigns of any such
party, whether immediate or remote, the purchaser of any mortgage or deed of
trust, whether at foreclosure or otherwise, and the successors, assigns and
mortgagees and beneficiaries of such purchaser, whether immediate or remote.
22.02 Tenant's Notices. In the event of any act or omission by Landlord
----------------
under this Lease which would give Tenant the right to terminate this Lease or to
claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant will not exercise any such right
until:
(a) it has given thirty days written notice (by United States certified
or registered mail, postage prepaid) of such act or omission to the holder of
any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property (whose names and addresses
Landlord agrees will be furnished to Tenant on request) with a copy to Xxxx X.
Xxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx, P.C., X.X. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000; and
(b) any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property shall,
following the giving of such notice, have failed with reasonable diligence to
commence and to pursue reasonable action to remedy the act or omission.
SECTION 23
WAIVER
------
The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any term, covenant, or condition in
this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the term, covenant, or
condition, or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or
conditions. The acceptance of Rent hereunder shall not be construed to be a
waiver of any breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this
Lease, it being understood and agreed that the remedies given to Landlord shall
be cumulative, and the exercise of any one remedy by Landlord shall not be to
the exclusion of any other remedy.
SECTION 24
SUBROGATION
-----------
The parties to this Lease agree that any and all fire and extended coverage
insurance which is required to be carried by either shall be endorsed with a
subrogation clause,
24
substantially as follows: "This insurance shall not be invalidated should the
insured waive, in writing, prior to a loss, any and all right of recovery
against any party for loss occurring to the property described herein." Each
party waives all claims for recovery from the other party, its officers, agents
or employees for any loss or damage (whether or not such loss or damage is
caused by negligence of the other party, and notwithstanding any provisions
contained in this Lease to the contrary) to any of its real or personal property
insured under valid and collectible insurance policies to the extent of the
collectible recovery under the insurance.
SECTION 25
PLATS AND RIDERS
----------------
Appendices, clauses, plats, and riders, if any, referred to in this Lease
and signed or initialed by Landlord and Tenant and affixed to this Lease are
hereby incorporated in any made a part of this Lease.
SECTION 26
SALE BY LANDLORD
----------------
In the event of a sale or conveyance or transfer by Landlord of its interest
in the Property and/or in the Building containing the Premises, and/or in this
Lease, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon
any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in favor of
Tenant, and in that event, Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of
the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. This Lease shall not
be affected by any such conveyance or transfer, and Tenant agrees to attorn to
such purchaser or transferee.
SECTION 27
RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM
----------------------------
All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the
terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, and without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum
of money, other than Rent, required
25
to be paid by it, or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be
performed, and the failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after written
notice by Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to do so, and
without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make any
payment or perform any other act on Tenant's part to be made or performed as in
this Lease provided. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental
costs, together with interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%)
per month from the date of a payment by Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord
on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay any such sums, and Landlord shall have
(in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and
remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant, as in the case of
default by Tenant in the payment of Rent.
SECTION 28
ATTORNEY'S FEES
---------------
In the event of any litigation or arbitration between Tenant and Landlord
to enforce any provision of this Lease or any right of either party, the
unsuccessful party to such litigation or arbitration shall pay to the successful
party al costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred.
Moreover, if Landlord, without fault, is made a party to any litigation
instituted by or against Tenant, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against, and
protect, defend, and save it harmless from, all costs and expenses, including
attorney's fees, incurred by Landlord. To the extent permitted by law, Landlord
and Tenant hereby waived the right to a jury trial in any legal action or
proceeding relating to this Lease.
SECTION 29
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
--------------------
Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten
(10) days prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge, and deliver
to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and
in full force and effect (or if modified, stating the nature of such
modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force
and effect) and the dates to which the Rent and other charges are paid, and
acknowledging that Tenant is paying Rent on a current basis with no offsets or
claims, and there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the
part of Landlord hereunder (or specifying the offsets, claims, or defaults, if
any are claimed). It is expressly understood and agreed that any such statement
may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrance of all or any
portion of the Building or by any other person to whom it is delivered. Tenant's
failure to deliver the statement within the required time shall be conclusive
upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification
except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured defaults in
Landlord's performance, and that not more than two (2) months' rental has been
paid in advance.
26
SECTION 30
NOTICE
------
Any notice from Landlord to Tenant or from Tenant to Landlord shall be in
writing and may be served personally or by mail. If served by mail, it shall be
mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to
Tenant at the Premises or to Landlord at the place from time to time established
for the payment of Rent. Notices shall be effective when delivered, if served
personally, or three (3) days after mailing, if mailed. If no one at the
premises is available to accept the notice, then it shall be deemed effective
upon the second refusal or uncompleted mail delivery attempt.
SECTION 31

Landlord reserves the following rights, exercisable without notice and

Lease shall be the responsibility of the Tenant.

modified.
(g) All rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, or those which
may be provided by law, may be exercised by Landlord in its own name

fire, explosion, failing plaster, steam, gas, electricity, snow, water, or rain
which may leak from any part of the Building or from the pipes, appliances, or
plumbing works therein or from the roof, street, subsurface, or from any other
place, or resulting from dampness or any other cause whatsoever; or (v)
interference with the light, air, or other incorporeal hereditament. Tenant
shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire or accidents in the
Premises or in the Building or of observed defects in the Building, its fixtures
or equipment.
SECTION 16
TENANT'S INSURANCE
------------------
16.01 Insurance. Tenant shall, during the entire Term of this Lease, at
---------
its sole cost and expense, obtain, maintain, and keep in full force and effect
the following types of insurance:
11
(a) Fire and extended coverage insurance, including endorsements
for vandalism, malicious mischief, theft, sprinkler leakage, covering all of
Tenant's property, including, but not limited to, furniture, fittings,
equipment, installations, alterations, additions, partitions, fixtures, and
anything in the nature of a leasehold improvement in an amount equal to the full
replacement cost of such property without deduction for depreciation. If there
is a dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the
decision of Landlord shall be conclusive;
(b) Public liability insurance, including bodily injury and
property damage, personal injury, contractual liability with respect to all
claims, demands, or actions by any person, firm, or corporation, in any way
arising from, related to, or connected with the conduct and operation of
Tenant's business in the Premises or Tenant's use of the Premises. Such policies
shall be written on a comprehensive basis, with limits not less than
$1,000,000.00, and such higher limits as Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord
may require from time to time, but may not be unreasonably required;
(c) Any other form or forms of insurance as the mortgagees of
Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts and for
insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself;
(d) Business interruption insurance in such amounts as will
reimburse the Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earning attributable to all
penis commonly insured against by prudent tenants or attributable to prevention
of access to the Premises or to the Building as a result of such perils.
16.02 Evidence. All policies shall be taken out with insurers acceptable
--------
to Landlord and in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord. Tenant
agrees that certificates of insurance or, if required by Landlord or the
mortgagees of Landlord, copies of each such insurance policy will be delivered
to Landlord as soon as practicable after the placing of the required insurance,
but in no event later than five (5) days after Tenant takes possession of all or
any part of the Leased Premises. All policies shall require that at least
thirty (30) days' prior written notice be delivered to Landlord's by the insurer
prior to termination, cancellation, or material change in such insurance.
16.03 Proceeds. Tenant agrees that in the event of damage or destruction
--------
to the leasehold improvements in the Leased Premises covered by insurance
required to be taken out by Tenant pursuant to this Section, Tenant shall use
the proceeds of the insurance for the purpose of building leasehold improvements
as mutually agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant
cannot agrees as to the new improvements within thirty (30) days, then Tenant
shall replace the identical improvements that were destroyed. In the event of
damage or destruction of the Building entitling the Landlord to terminate this
Lease pursuant to Section 17, then, if the Leased Premises have also been
damaged, Tenant will pay to Landlord al of its insurance proceeds relating to
the leasehold improvements in the Leased Premises, and if the Leased Premises
have not been damaged, Tenant will deliver to Landlord, in accordance with the
provisions of this Lease, the leasehold improvements and the Leased Premises.
SECTION 17
12
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
---------------------
17.01 Right to Terminate. If the Premises or the Building are damaged by
------------------
fire or other insured casualty, and the insurance proceeds have been made
available by the holder of holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust covering
the Building, the damage shall be repaired by and at the expense of Landlord to
the extent of such insurance proceeds available, provided such repairs can, in
Landlord's reasonable discretion, be completed within one hundred twenty (120)
days after the occurrence of such damage, without the payment of overtime or
other premiums. Until the repairs are completed, the Rent shall be abated in
proportion to the part of the Premises which is unusable by Tenant in the
conduct of its business; provided, however, if the damage is due to the fault or
neglect of tenant or its employees, agents, or invitees, there shall be no
abatement of Rent. If repairs cannot, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, be
made within said one hundred twenty (120) day period, Landlord shall notify
Tenant within sixty (60) days of the date of occurrence of the damage as to
whether or not Landlord elects to make the repairs. If Landlord elects not to
make the repairs, then either party may, by written notice to the other cancel
this lease as of the date of the occurrence of the damage. Except as provided
in this Section 17, there shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability of
Landlord by reason of any injury, inconvenience, temporary limitation of access
or interference to or with Tenant's business or property arising from the making
of any necessary repairs, or any alterations or improvements in or to any
portion of the Building or the Premises, or in or to fixtures, appurtenances,
and equipment therein necessitated by the damage. Tenant understands that
Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant's furniture and
furnishings or on any fixtures or equipment removable by Tenant under the
provision of this Lease, and that Landlord shall not be required to repair any
injury or damage caused by fire or other cause, or to make any repairs or
replacements to or of improvement installed in the Premises by or for Tenant at
Tenant's cost.
17.02 Landlord's Insurance. Landlord covenants and agrees that,
--------------------
throughout the Lease Term, it will insure the Building (excluding foundations,
excavations and other noninsurable items) and the machinery, boilers, and
equipment contained therein owned by Landlord (excluding any property with
respect to which Tenant is obliged to insure pursuant to the provisions of
Section 16 thereof) against damage by fire and extended perils coverage in such
reasonable amounts as would be carried by a prudent owner of a similar property
in the same locale. Landlord will also, throughout the Term, carry public
liability, property damage and loss of rent insurance with respect to the
operation of the Premises in reasonable amounts as would be carried by a prudent
owner of a similar property in the same locale. Landlord may, but shall not be
obligated to, take out and carry any other form and forms of insurance as it or
the mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably determine to be advisable. Tenant
shall pay for all such insurance carried by Landlord as an Operating Cost,
provided that such insurance is not duplicative of the insurance obtained
pursuant to Section 16.01. Notwithstanding any contribution by Tenant to the
cost of insurance premiums, Tenant acknowledges that it has no right to receive
any proceeds from the insurance policies carried by Landlord, and that the
insurance will be for the sole benefit of Landlord, with no coverage for Tenant
for any risk insured against.
SECTION 18
13
ENTRY BY LANDLORD
-----------------
Landlord and its agents, upon giving 24 hours notice, shall have the right
to enter the Premises during normal business hours for the purpose of examining
or inspecting the same, to supply any services to be provided by Landlord to
Tenant hereunder, to show same to prospective purchasers or tenants of the
Premises, and to make such alterations, repairs, improvements, or additions,
whether structural or otherwise, to the Premises or to the Building as Landlord
may deem necessary or desirable. Landlord may enter by means of a master key,
without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for
Tenant's property, and without affecting this Lease. Landlord shall use
reasonable efforts on any such entry not to unreasonably interrupt or interfere
with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises. Landlord may enter the
Premises at any time in the case of an emergency.
SECTION 19
DEFAULT BY TENANT
-----------------
19.01 Events of Default. Each one of the following events if referred to
-----------------
as an "Event of Default":
(a) Tenant shall fail to make due and punctual payment of Rent or an
other amounts payable hereunder, and such failure shall continue for fifteen
(15) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord.
(b) Tenant shall vacate or abandon the Premises, or remove leasehold
improvements or fixtures constituting property of Landlord;
(c) This Lease shall be transferred to or shall pass to or devolve
upon any other person or party except in the manner set forth in Section 13;
(d) This Lease or the Premises or any part thereof shall be taken
upon execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant, or shall be
taken upon or subject to any attachment at the instance of any creditor of or
claimant against Tenant, and said attachment shall not be discharged or disposed
of within thirty (30) days after the levy;
(e) The filing of any petition or the commencement of any case or
proceeding by the Tenant under any provision or chapter of the Federal
Bankruptcy Act, the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law
relating to insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization; or the adjudication that
the Tenant is insolvent or bankrupt, or the entry of an order for relief under
the Federal Bankruptcy Code with respect to Tenant;
(f) The filing of any petition or the commencement of any case or
proceeding described in Subsection (e) above against the Tenant, unless the
petition and all proceedings initiated thereby are dismissed within sixty (60)
days from the date of the filing; the filing of an answer by Tenant admitting
the allegations of any such petition; or the appointment of or taking
14
possession by a custodian, trustee or receiver for all or any assets of the
Tenant, unless such appointment is vacated or dismissed within sixty (60) days
from the date of such appointment or taking of such possession.
(g) Tenant shall fail to take possession of the Premises thirty (30)
days following the earlier of the date the Premises are Ready for Occupancy or
the Commencement date; or
(h) Tenant shall fail to perform any of the other agreements, terms,
covenants or conditions of this Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, and such
non-performance shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice by Landlord to Tenant, or if such performance cannot be reasonably had
within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not in good faith have
commenced such performance within such thirty (30) day period and shall not
thereafter diligently proceed to completion.
19.02 Remedies of Landlord. If any one or more events of default shall
--------------------
happen, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord's election, then or at
any time thereafter without demand or notice, to reenter and take possession of
the Premises or any part thereof and repossess the same as Landlord's former
estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant, and remove
the effects of both or either, without being deemed guilty of any manner of
trespass, and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or breach of
covenants or prior conditions and without terminating this Lease. Should
Landlord elect to reenter as provided in this Subsection, or should Landlord
take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided
for by law including a proceeding for possession pursuant to Colorado's Forcible
Entry and unlawful Detainer Statutes, Landlord may, from time to time, without
terminating this Lease either;
(a) (i) Relet the Premises or any part thereof in Landlord's or
Tenant's name, but for the account of Tenant, for a term or terms (which may be
greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the
balance of the term of this Lease) and on conditions and upon other terms (which
may include concessions of free rent and alteration and repair of the Premises)
as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may determine, and Landlord may collect and
receive the rents. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises
and maximize the income generated by the Premises. No reentry or taking
possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on
Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such
intention be given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord hereunder or under a
forcible entry and unlawful detainer statute or similar law shall constitute an
election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so
states. Landlord reserves the right following any reentry and/or reletting to
exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice, in
which event the Lease will terminate as specific in the notice.
(ii) If Landlord elects to take possession of the Premises as
provided in this Subsection (a) without terminating the Lease, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord (1) the Rent and other sums due under this Lease which would be
payable if repossession had not occurred, less (2) the net proceeds, if any, of
any reletting of the Premises after deducting all Landlord's expenses in
connection with the reletting, including, but without limitation, all
repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
expenses of employees, alteration, remodeling and
15
repair costs and expenses of preparation of the reletting. If, in connection
with any reletting, the new lease terms extends beyond the existing term, or the
premises covered include other premises not part of the Premises, a fair
apportionment of the rent received from the reletting and the expenses incurred
in connection with the reletting will be made in determining the net proceeds
received from reletting. In addition, in determining the net proceeds from
reletting, any rent concession will be apportioned over the term of the new
Lease;or
(b) To give Tenant written notice of intention to terminate this
Lease on the date of the notice, or on any later date specified in the notice.
Tenant's right to possession of the Premises shall cease and the Lease shall
thereupon be terminated, except as to Tenant's liability under this Lease, as if
the expiration of the term fixed in the notice were the end of the term
originally demised, including as extended by the exercise of any options granted
to Tenant. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this
Subsection (b), or terminated pursuant to a proceeding for possession under the
Colorado Forcible Entry and Unlawful Detainer Statutes, Tenant shall remain
liable to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to the Rent and other sums
which would have been owing by Tenant under this Lease for the balance of the
Term had this Lease not been terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, of any
reletting of the Premises by Landlord subsequent to the termination, after
deducting all Landlord's expenses in connection with such reletting, including,
but without limitation, the expenses enumerated in Subsection (a) above.
Landlord shall be entitled to collect damages from Tenant monthly on the days on
which the Rent and other amounts would have been payable if this Lease had not
been terminated.
19.03 Cumulative Remedies. Suit or suits for the recovery of the Rent and
-------------------
other amounts and damages may be brought by Landlord, from time to time, at
Landlord's election, and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to require
Landlord to await the date when this Lease or its Term would have expired by
limitation had there been no default by Tenant, or no termination, as the case
may be. Each right and remedy provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this
Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise including but not limited to suits for injunctive relief and specific
performance. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one
or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the
simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any or all rights or remedies
provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
by statute or otherwise. All such rights and remedies shall be considered
cumulative and non-exclusive. All costs incurred by Landlord in connection with
collecting any Rent or other amounts and damages owing by Tenant pursuant to the
provisions of this Lease, or to enforce any provision of this Lease, including
reasonable attorney's fees from the date such matter is turned over to an
attorney, whether or not one or more actions are commenced by Landlord, shall
also be paid by Tenant to Landlord.
19.04 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict
---------
performance of any agreement, term, covenant or condition of this Lease or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach, and no acceptance of full
or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any breach, shall
constitute a waiver of any breach or of the agreement to be performed or
complied with by Tenant, and no breach shall be waived, altered or modified
except by written instrument executed by Landlord. No waiver of any breach
shall affect or alter this
16
Lease, but each and every agreement, term, covenant and condition shall continue
in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent
breach. Notwithstanding any termination of this Lease, the same shall continue
in force and effect as to any provisions which require observance or performance
by Landlord or Tenant subsequent to such termination.
19.05 Bankruptcy. Nothing contained in this Section 19 shall limit or
----------
prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain as liquidated damages in any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or dissolution proceeding,
an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law governing
such a proceeding, and in effect at the time when such damages are to be proved,
whether or not the amount is greater, equal to or less than the amounts
recoverable, either as damages or Rent, referred to in any of the preceding
provisions of this Section. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section
to the contrary, any such proceeding or action involving bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, arrangement, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
appointment of a receiver or trustee, as set forth above, shall be considered to
be an event of default only when the proceeding, action or remedy shall be taken
or brought by or against the then holder of the leasehold estate under this
Lease.
SECTION 20
TAXES
-----
During the Term hereof, Tenant shall pay, prior to delinquency, all
business and other taxes, charges, notes, duties and assessments levied, and
rates or fees imposed, charged, or assessed against or in respect of Tenant's
occupancy of the Leased Premises or in respect of the personal property, trade
fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and all other personal property of Tenant
contained in the Premises, and shall hold Landlord harmless from and against all
payment of such taxes, charges, notes, duties, assessments, rates, and fees, and
against all loss, costs, charges, and expenses occasioned by or arising from any
and all such taxes, charges, notes, duties, assessments, rates, and fees, any
and all taxes. Tenant shall cause the fixtures, furnishings, equipment and
other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real and
personal property of Landlord. If any or all of Tenant's fixtures, furnishing,
equipment, and other personal property shall be assessed and taxes with
Landlord's real property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant's share of such
taxes within ten (10) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of a statement
in writing setting forth the amount of such taxes applicable to Tenant's
property. Tenant shall also timely provide Landlord with copies of all personal
property, self-employment, sales, use and unemployment tax returns within thirty
(30) days after they are filed with the appropriate government offices, together
with any correspondence or tax xxxx pertaining to any tax that is not paid when
due according to the taxing authority. Tenant agrees to provide personal
financial statements at regular intervals if so requested by any lender holding
a security interest in the Property or the Building. All of the above documents
shall be considered confidential and only disclosed or used for Landlord's
appropriate business purposes.
17
SECTION 21
EMINENT DOMAIN
--------------
If the Building, or a substantial part thereof, or a substantial part of
the Premises, shall be lawfully taken or condemned (or conveyed under threat of
such taking or condemnation) for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, the
Term of this Lease shall end upon, and not before, the date of the taking of
possession by the condemning authority. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord
Tenant's interest if any, in the award. Current Rent shall be apportioned as of
the date of termination. If any part of the Building, other than the Premises
or not constituting a substantial part of the Premises, shall be so taken or
condemned (or conveyed under threat of such taking or condemnation), or if the
grade of any street adjacent to the Building is changed by any competent
authority and such taking or change of grade makes it necessary or desirable to
substantially remodel or restore the Building, Landlord shall have the right to
cancel this Lease upon not less than sixty (60) days' notice prior to the date
of cancellation designated in the notice. No money or other consideration shall
be payable by Landlord to Tenant for the right of cancellation, and Tenant shall
have no right to share in any condemnation award, or in any judgment for
damages, or in any proceeds of any sale made under any threat of condemnation of
taking. Nothing in this Section shall prevent Tenant from making and pursuing a
claim against the condemning authority in its own right for termination of its
leasehold interest. If this Lease is not canceled, the Lease shall continue in
full force and effect, without abatement or reduction of Rent.
SECTION 22
SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES AND DEEDS OF TRUST
---------------------------------------------
22.01 Lease Subordinate to Mortgages.
------------------------------
(a) This Lease and the rights of Tenant shall be and are hereby made
subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or
hereafter existing against the Building, the Property or both, and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and
to all advances made now or in the future. Although the subordination shall be
self-operating, Tenant, or its successors in interest, shall upon Landlord's
request, execute and deliver upon the demand of Landlord any and all instruments
desired by landlord, subordinating, in the manner reasonable requested by
Landlord, this Lease to any mortgage or deed of trust. Landlord is hereby
irrevocably appointed and authorized as agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to
execute all subordination instruments if Tenant fails to execute the instruments
within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord demanding their execution. The
notice may be given in the manner provided for giving notice below.
(b) Should any mortgage or deed of trust affecting the Building, the
Property or both be foreclosed, then; (I) the liability of the mortgagee,
beneficiary or purchaser at the foreclosure sale to Tenant shall exist only so
long as the mortgagee, beneficiary, or purchaser is the owner of the Building
and/or Property and the liability shall not continue or survive after further
transfer of ownership; and (ii) Tenant shall be deemed to have attorned, as
Tenant under this Lease, to the purchaser at any foreclosure sale and this Lease
shall continue in force and effect as
18
a direct lease between and binding upon Tenant and the purchaser at any
foreclosure sale. As used in this Section 22, "mortgagee" and "beneficiary"
shall include successors and assigns of any such party, whether immediate or
remote, the purchaser of any mortgage or deed of trust, whether at foreclosure
or otherwise, and the successors, assigns and mortgagees and beneficiaries of
such purchaser, whether immediate or remote.
22.02 Tenant's Notices. In the event of any act or omission by Landlord
----------------
under this Lease which would give Tenant the right to terminate this Lease or to
claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant will not exercise any such right
until:
(a) it has given thirty days written notice (by United States
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid) of such act or omission to the
holder of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property (whose names and
addresses Landlord agrees will be furnished to Tenant on request) with a copy to
Xxxx X. Xxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx, P.C., X.X. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000; and
(b) any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property
shall, following the giving of such notice, have failed with reasonable
diligence to commence and to pursue reasonable action to remedy the act or
omission.
SECTION 23
WAIVER
------
The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any term, covenant, or condition in
this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the term, covenant, or
condition, or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or
conditions. The acceptance of Rent hereunder shall not be construed to be a
waiver of any breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this
Lease, it being understood and agreed that the remedies given to Landlord shall
be cumulative, and the exercise of any one remedy by Landlord shall not be to
the exclusion of any other remedy.
SECTION 24
SUBROGATION
-----------
The parties to this Lease agree that any and all fire and extended coverage
insurance which is required to be carried by either shall be endorsed with a
subrogation clause, substantially as follows: "This insurance shall not be
invalidated should the insured waive, in writing, prior to a loss, any and all
right of recovery against any party for loss occurring to the property described
herein." Each party waives all claims for recovery from the other party, its
officers, agents or employees for any loss or damage (whether or not such loss
or damage is caused by negligence of the other party, and notwithstanding any
provisions contained in this Lease to the contrary) to any of its real or
personal property insured under valid and collectible insurance policies to the
extent of the collectible recovery under the insurance.
19
SECTION 25
PLATS AND RIDERS
----------------
Appendices, clauses, plats, and riders, if any, referred to in this Lease
and signed or initialed by Landlord and Tenant and affixed to this Lease are
hereby incorporated in any made a part of this Lease.
SECTION 26
SALE BY LANDLORD
----------------
In the event of a sale or conveyance or transfer by Landlord of its interest
in the Property and/or in the Building containing the Premises, and/or in this
Lease, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon
any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in favor of
Tenant, and in that event, Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of
the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. This Lease shall
not be affected by any such conveyance or transfer, and Tenant agrees to attorn
to such purchaser or transferee.
SECTION 27
RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM
----------------------------
All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the
terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, and without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum
of money, other than Rent, required to be paid by it, or shall fail to perform
any other act on its part to be performed, and the failure shall continue for
thirty (30) days after written notice by Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not
be obligated to do so, and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any
obligations of Tenant, make any payment or perform any other act on Tenant's
part to be made or performed as in this Lease provided. All sums so paid by
Landlord and all necessary incidental costs, together with interest at the rate
of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month from the date of a payment by
Landlord, shall be payable to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay
any such sums, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy
of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment
thereof by Tenant, as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Rent.
SECTION 28
ATTORNEY'S FEES
---------------
In the event of any litigation or arbitration between Tenant and Landlord
to enforce any provision of this Lease or any right of either party, the
unsuccessful party to such litigation or arbitration shall pay to the successful
party al costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred.
Moreover, if Landlord, without fault, is made a party to any litigation
instituted by or
20
against Tenant, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against, and protect, defend,
and save it harmless from, all costs and expenses, including attorney's fees,
incurred by Landlord. To the extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant hereby
waived the right to a jury trial in any legal action or proceeding relating to
this Lease.
SECTION 29
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
--------------------
Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten
(10) days prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge, and deliver
to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and
in full force and effect (or if modified, stating the nature of such
modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force
and effect) and the dates to which the Rent and other charges are paid, and
acknowledging that Tenant is paying Rent on a current basis with no offsets or
claims, and there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the
part of Landlord hereunder (or specifying the offsets, claims, or defaults, if
any are claimed). It is expressly understood and agreed that any such statement
may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrance of all or any
portion of the Building or by any other person to whom it is delivered.
Tenant's failure to deliver the statement within the required time shall be
conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without
modification except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured
defaults in Landlord's performance, and that not more than two (2) months'
rental has been paid in advance.
SECTION 30
NOTICE
------
Any notice from Landlord to Tenant or from Tenant to Landlord shall be in
writing and may be served personally or by mail. If served by mail, it shall be
mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to
Tenant at the Premises or to Landlord at the place from time to time established
for the payment of Rent. Notices shall be effective when delivered, if served
personally, or three (3) days after mailing, if mailed. If no one at the
premises is available to accept the notice, then it shall be deemed effective
upon the second refusal or uncompleted mail delivery attempt.
SECTION 31
RIGHTS RESERVED
---------------
Landlord reserves the following rights, exercisable without notice and
without liability to Tenant for damage or injury to property, person, or
business, and without effecting an eviction, constructive or actual, or

21
(b) To install, affix, and maintain any and all signs on the exterior and

any act of Tenant.
SECTION 32
REAL ESTATE BROKER
------------------
Tenant represents that Tenant has dealt directly with Landlord in
connection with this Lease, and that insofar as Tenant knows, no broker
negotiated or participated in the negotiations of this Lease, or submitted or
showed the Premises, or is entitled to any commission in connection herewith.
Any payment for services relative to this Lease shall be the responsibility of
the Tenant.
SECTION 33
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
------------------------
(a) The words "re-enter", or "re-entry", as used in this Lease, are not
restricted to their technical legal meaning. The term "Landlord", as used in
this Lease, means only the landlord from time to time, and upon conveying or
transferring its interest, Landlord shall be relieved from any further
obligation or liability pursuant to Section 27.
(b) Time is of the essence of this Lease and of each and all of its
provisions.
(c) Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant
does not constitute a reservation of or an option for lease, and it is not
effective as a lease or otherwise until execution by both Landlord and Tenant.

not affect or impair any other provisions.
(e) This Lease shall be governed by and construed pursuant to the laws of
the State of Colorado.

modification of this Lease, which modification will not bring about any
increased cost or expense to Tenant or will not in any other way substantially
change the rights and obligations or Tenant hereunder, then and in such event,
Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified.
22
(g) All rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, or those which
