-11-
Improvements subject to any such lease or any easement covered by the Parking Agreement, as the case may be, without the necessity of either party executing any amendment to this Lease or other document or instrument: provided, however, either party upon the request of the other will execute whatever documents are reasonably requested by the other party in order to confirm that such property is no longer covered by or otherwise subject to this Lease.
2.2 Condition of Leased Property. TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES RECEIPT AND DELIVERY OF POSSESSION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY AND TENANT ACCEPTS THE LEASED PROPERTY IN ITS “AS IS” CONDITION, SUBJECT TO THE RIGHTS OF PARTIES IN POSSESSION, THE EXISTING STATE OF TITLE, INCLUDING ALL COVENANTS, CONDITIONS, RESTRICTIONS, RESERVATIONS, MINERAL LEASES, EASEMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS OF RECORD OR THAT ARE VISIBLE OR APPARENT ON THE LEASED PROPERTY, ALL APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, THE LIEN OF ANY FINANCING INSTRUMENTS, MORTGAGES AND DEEDS OF TRUST PERMITTED BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND SUCH OTHER MATTERS WHICH WOULD BE DISCLOSED BY AN INSPECTION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY AND THE RECORD TITLE THERETO OR BY AN ACCURATE SURVEY THEREOF. TENANT REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE LEASED PROPERTY AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT.

-12-
Expiration Date or the last day of the Renewal Period, as the case may be. Unless Landlord and Tenant agree in writing not to renew this Lease as aforesaid, no later than six (6) months prior to the Expiration Date or the last day of the applicable Renewal Period, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith modifications to Schedule 3.1(c)(ii) for the Renewal Term to adjust such Rent to approximate, as closely as possible, the economic outcome of the Rent set forth in a certain rent model that is attached hereto as Schedule 2.4.

ARTICLE 3
RENT
3.1 Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord, in its sole discretion, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without notice, offset, abatement, demand or deduction (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Lease), Rent during the Term as follows:
(a) Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to Minimum Rent for each Lease Year during the Term, as set forth on Schedule 3.1(a). The Minimum Rent shall be payable in advance in equal monthly installments on the Commencement Date and on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of each Accounting Period thereafter; provided, however, that any installment of Minimum Rent shall be prorated as to any partial Lease Year or Accounting Period.
(b) Adjustments of Minimum Rent. Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as follows:
(i) Effective on the date that the Landlord or an Affiliate designated by Landlord acquires fee simple title to any Land Parcel, the Minimum Rent shall be increased by an amount equal to the amount by which (a) the amount disbursed by the Landlord or such Affiliate to pay for the costs of acquiring fee simple title to such Land Parcel times nine percent (9%) exceeds (b) the ground lease rental then payable with respect to such Land Parcel.
(ii) Effective on the date of each disbursement (A) to pay for the cost of any repairs, maintenance, renovations or replacements that constitute Excess Capex or (B) to pay for items in the Approved Capex budget that, when added to all other disbursements to pay for items in the Approved Capex Budget, exceed the Annual Capex Threshold, the Minimum Rent shall be increased by an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the amount so disbursed, times nine percent (9%). If any such disbursement is made during any Accounting Period on a day other than the first day of the month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of the immediately following month (in addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such Accounting Period, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (b)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding Accounting Period, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent actually paid by Tenant for such preceding Accounting Period.
-13-
(iii) Effective on the date of any disbursement to pay for the costs of any items with respect to the Project which Landlord and Tenant agree shall be paid by Landlord, the Minimum Rent shall be increased by an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the amount so disbursed, times nine percent (9%). If any such disbursement is made during any Accounting Period on a day other than the first day of the month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of the immediately following month (in addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to such Accounting Period, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (iii)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding Accounting Period, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent actually paid by Tenant for such preceding Accounting Period.
(c) Percentage Rent.
(i) In addition to Minimum Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Percentage Rent in arrears within twenty (20) days after the end of each Lease Quarter, beginning with the first Lease Quarter after the Commencement Date occurs and continuing with each Lease Quarter thereafter and shall be calculated on cumulative basis; i.e., Percentage Rent shall only be payable if the cumulative Revenue Computation for all of the Lease Quarters that have elapsed in such Lease Year (the “Calculation Period”) exceeds the sum of (a) the amount of Minimum Rent for such Calculation Period and (b) payments made in respect of Percentage Rent, if any, previously paid for any Lease Quarters included in such Calculation Period. Notwithstanding any provision in Section 3.1(d) or any other provision herein to the contrary, with respect to Percentage Rent payable with respect to the first Fiscal Year of this Lease or any part thereof, revenues and receipts for the month of February, 2005 shall be excluded from Total Sales for such Fiscal Year.
(ii) Landlord and Tenant expressly acknowledge and agree that (1) the threshold and percentages for establishing Percentage Rent (the Revenues Computation) are set out on Schedule 3.1(c)(ii) to this Lease, and (2) the determination of Percentage Rent shall be made with respect to the remainder of the initial Term and separately with respect to Renewal Terms. An Example of the rent computation is set forth in Schedule 3.1(c)(ii).
(iii) In addition, on or before May 1 of each Lease Year, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a statement setting forth the Total Sales for such preceding Lease Year, together with an audit of Total Sales for the preceding Lease Year, conducted by one of the firms of independent public accountants listed on Schedule 3.1(c)(iii). Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of such audit. If the Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown in the annual statement exceeds the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the annual statement is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the accrual date specified below until the date that such certificate is required to be delivered (or, if sooner, the date Tenant pays such excess to Landlord) and, thereafter, such interest shall accrue at the Default Rate, until the amount of such difference shall be paid or otherwise discharged. In the case of any underpayment of Rent by Tenant arising out of incorrect reporting on any statement of Rent, the accrual
-14-
date therefor shall be the payment due date for the respective installment of Rent with respect to which the underpayment occurred. In the case of any underpayment of Rent arising out of variation in Total Sales from Lease Quarter to Lease Quarter, the accrual date shall be the payment due date for the final installment of Rent for such preceding Lease Year. If the annual Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown in the annual statement is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall be entitled to offset the amount of such difference against Rent next coming due under this Lease, such payment or credit to be made together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment of Tenant until the date such offset is applied. If such offset cannot be made because the Term has expired prior to application in full thereof, Landlord shall pay the unapplied balance of such offset to Tenant, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment by Landlord. |
(d) Partial Lease Year. If the Term begins or ends in the middle of a Lease Year, then the number of Lease Quarters falling within the Term during such Lease Year shall constitute a separate Lease Year. In that event, the various Total Sales Break Points set forth on Schedule 3.1(c)(ii) shall be adjusted to equal the Cumulative Portion of such Break Points for such separate Lease Year.
(e) Officer’s Certificate. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a Certificate from the chief financial officer of Tenant (a “Percentage Rent Certificate”) with each Percentage Rent payment setting forth the calculation of the Percentage Rent payment for the most recently completed Lease Quarter of each Lease Year during the Term and Percentage Rent year to date through such recently completed Lease Quarter. Percentage Rent shall be subject to confirmation and adjustment, if applicable, as set forth in Section 3.2.
(f) Survival of Rent Obligation. The obligation to pay Rent shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, and a final reconciliation, taking into account, among other relevant adjustments, any adjustments which are accrued after such expiration or termination date but which relate to Rent accrued prior to such termination date, shall be made not later than sixty (60) days after such expiration or termination date in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1(c)(iii).
3.2 Confirmation of Percentage Rent. Tenant shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices, and in accordance with GAAP that will accurately record all data necessary to compute Rent, and Tenant shall retain, for at least five (5) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all data necessary to audit and compute Rent for the applicable Lease Year. Landlord shall have the right, for a period of two (2) years following each Lease Year, from time to time, by its accountants or representatives, to audit such information and to examine all Tenant’s records (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns) reasonably required to complete Landlord’s audit and to verify Rent, subject to any prohibitions or limitations on disclosure of any such data under Legal Requirements. If any Landlord’s audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent, and either Tenant agrees with the results of Landlord’s audit or the matter is otherwise determined or compromised, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the
-15-
deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date when said payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof. If any Landlord’s audit discloses a deficiency in the determination or reporting of Total Sales, which, as finally agreed or determined, exceeds three percent (3%), Tenant shall pay the costs of the audit. The obligations of Tenant contained in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Any dispute as to the existence or amount of any deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent as disclosed by Landlord’s audit shall, if not otherwise settled by the parties, be submitted to arbitration, pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.2.
3.3 Additional Charges. Tenant shall pay to the appropriate parties and discharge as and when due and payable the following (collectively, “Additional Charges”):
(a) Impositions. Subject to Article 8 relating to permitted contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, and Tenant shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and file all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord’s net income, gross receipts (from any source other than the Rent received by Landlord from Tenant), sales and use, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock, and Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Legal Requirements, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies. If any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Lease as personal property, Tenant shall file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Lease and/or gross receipts tax returns for Rent received by Landlord from Tenant, Landlord shall file the same with reasonable cooperation from Tenant. Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to prepare a protest which Landlord shall file, at Tenant’s written request. All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty.
-16-
Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided, however, that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions (except that Landlord shall be responsible for any interest or penalties incurred as a result of Landlord’s failure promptly to forward the same).
(b) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Leased Property.
(c) Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to Article 9.
(d) Artwork Lease. Tenant shall pay or cause to paid all amounts payable by the lessee under the Artwork Lease.
(e) Reimbursement for Additional Charges. If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or other Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such amounts. Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Lease.
(f) Obligations under the Parking Agreement. Tenant shall perform and pay all obligations of Landlord under the Parking Agreement.
(g) Operating Expenses. Tenant shall pay all other costs and expenses of operating the Leased Property.
3.4 Late Payments. If any installment of Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within five (5) days after Landlord’s written demand therefor, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Default Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Lease, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due and Landlord shall pay when due, or cause the applicable Mortgagee to pay when due, such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they are due. If any payment due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Default Rate on the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.
In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, unless contested pursuant to Article 8, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment of
-17-
such items. Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Lease or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent.
3.5 Net Lease. The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Lease shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Lease which expressly provide otherwise, including, without limitation, those provisions for adjustment, refunding or abatement of such Rent and for the funding of Landlord’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1.4.

Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, this Lease shall be noncancellable by Tenant for any reason whatsoever and, except as expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant, to the extent now or hereafter permitted by Legal Requirements, waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to quit, terminate or surrender this Lease or to any diminution, abatement or reduction of Rent payable hereunder.

Tenant shall promptly: (i) upon receipt of notice or knowledge, notify Landlord in writing of any material change in the nature or extent of Hazardous Materials at the Leased Property; (ii) transmit to Landlord a copy of any Community Right to Know report which is required to be filed by Tenant with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to XXXX Title III or any other Applicable Law; (iii) transmit to Landlord copies of any citations, orders, notices or other governmental communications received by Tenant or its agents or representatives with respect thereto (collectively, “Environmental Notice”), which Environmental Notice requires a written response or any action to be taken and/or if such Environmental Notice gives notice of and/or presents a material risk of any material violation of any Applicable Law and/or presents a material risk of any material cost, expense, loss or damage (an “Environmental Obligation”); (iv) observe and comply with all Legal Requirements relating to the use, maintenance and disposal of Hazardous Materials and all orders or directives from any official, court or agency of competent jurisdiction relating to the use or maintenance or requiring the removal, treatment, containment or other disposition thereof; and, (v) pay or otherwise dispose of any fine, charge or Imposition related thereto, unless Tenant shall contest the same in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and the right to use and the value of the Leased Property is not materially and adversely affected thereby. Tenant’s liability and obligations pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.3 are subject to Landlord’s compliance with its funding obligations under Section 5.1.4.

ARTICLE 5
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
5.1 Maintenance and Repair.
5.1.1 Tenant’s Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense (except as expressly provided in Section 5.1.2, keep the Leased Property and all private roadways, parking areas, landscaping, sidewalks and curbs located thereon in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and shall promptly make all necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements thereto of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the commencement of the Term. All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike manner, in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances, by-laws, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such work. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 5.1.1 shall be limited in the event of any casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Sections 10.2 and 11.2 and Tenant’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Materials are as set forth in Section 4.3.
5.1.2 Landlord’s Obligations. Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased Property, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restoration or renewals of any nature or description to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, to maintain the Leased Property in any way, or, except to make the deposits provided for in Section 5.1.4, to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law in effect on the date hereof or hereafter enacted. Landlord shall have the right to give, record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic’s lien laws now or hereafter existing
5.1.3 Capital Expenditures Budget. On or before thirty (30) days prior to the end of each Lease Year, Tenant shall prepare a budget in the form of Schedule 5.1.3 (the “Capex Budget”) of Capital Expenditures anticipated during the ensuing Lease Year and shall submit such Capex Budget to Landlord for its approval. If Tenant does not receive Notice of Landlord’s disapproval of the Capex Budget within twenty (20) Business Days after delivery of the Capex Budget to Landlord, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Capex Budget. In the event Landlord disapproves the Capex Budget, Landlord’s Notice shall identify disputed items on each line item within a Category. Items not identified as disputed in such Landlord’s Notice shall be deemed approved. In the event Landlord timely disapproves any Capex Budget or any item within any Capex Budget, then, Tenant shall promptly revise the Capex Budget until Landlord approves the Capex Budget. The Capex Budget submitted by Tenant and as approved or deemed approved by Landlord is referred to herein as the “Approved Capex Budget”. Upon the occurrence of any event that causes the Approved Capex Budget to be incorrect or inaccurate (because of, by way of example, a subsequent agreement of the partners of Landlord or any event covered by Section 10.2 or 11.2 below), Tenant shall revise the Capex Budget and submit it to the Landlord for approval. A revised Capex Budget shall not become an Approved Capex Budget until approved by Landlord.
-21-
5.1.4 Funding of Capex Budget.
(a) Landlord shall establish an interest bearing reserve account (the “Reserve”) in a bank designated by Landlord and reasonably approved by Tenant and shall deposit into the Reserve on a monthly basis an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12th) of the amount necessary to fully pay all costs contemplated in the Approved Capex Budget for the applicable Lease Year. With respect to the first and last Lease Year of the Term, the monthly deposits into the Reserve shall be in equal amounts necessary to fully pay all costs contemplated in the Approved Capex Budget for the applicable partial Lease Year. All interest earned on the Reserve shall be added to and remain a part of the Reserve. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant shall be the only party entitled to withdraw funds from the Reserve. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease, all funds in the Reserve, all interest earned thereon and all property purchased with funds from the Reserve shall be and remain the property of Landlord. Following expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and payment in full on all contracts entered into prior to such expiration or termination for work to be done or furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment to be supplied in accordance with this Section 5.1.4 out of the Reserve, control over the Reserve shall be transferred from Tenant to Landlord.
(b) If, at any time, funds in the Reserve shall be insufficient or are reasonably projected by Tenant to be insufficient to pay for Capital Expenditures that are contained in any Approved Capex Budget or to pay for any other Capital Expenditures to the Leased Premises that are necessary to (i) comply with the Product Standards, (ii) comply with or satisfy any Legal Requirements, (iii) pay for costs arising pursuant to Sections 10.2.3 or 11.2 or (iv) pay for costs related to Hazardous Materials under Section 4.3 (except for costs related to Hazardous Materials resulting from Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, which costs shall be Tenant’s sole cost and expense) (such additional Capital Expenditures described in (i) through (iv) of this Section are referred to herein as “Excess Capex”), Tenant may, at its election, give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required or permitted action (the “Excess Capex Improvements”) and the estimated Excess Capex relating thereto. In the alternative, Landlord may, at its election, give Tenant Notice of any desired Excess Capex Improvements which Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the Excess Capex Improvements and the estimated Excess Capex relating thereto. Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice, or such later dates as Tenant and Landlord may agree, disburse such Excess Capex to Tenant (or, if Tenant shall so elect, directly to any Person performing the required work).
(c) If Landlord or Tenant disputes whether any requested Capital Expenditures have been properly designated as Excess Capex, such party shall give the other Notice of such dispute within such ten (10) Business Day period, and failure to give Notice of such dispute shall be deemed a waiver of any right to dispute or contest whether the requested Capital Expenditure constitutes an Excess Capex. In the event that any dispute shall arise with respect to whether a requested Capital Expenditure constitutes Excess Capex, then, following the negotiation period specified in Section 19.1, either party may submit such dispute for resolution by arbitrators in accordance
-22-
with the provisions of Section 19.2, and the arbitrators shall determine whether or not the requested Capital Expenditure constitutes Excess Capex. If the arbitrators decide any such Capital Expenditure requested by Landlord is not Excess Capex, Landlord shall have the right to elect to disburse or not disburse funds to pay for the work contemplated in the applicable Notice. If Landlord elects not to disburse funds for such work, Tenant shall be relieved of any obligation to carry out the applicable work. If the arbitrators determine that any Capital Expenditure that is the subject of Tenant’s Notice to Landlord constitutes Excess Capex, Landlord shall disburse the Excess Capex. Excess Capex that is greater than the Annual Capex Threshold shall cause an adjustment to Minimum Rent pursuant to Section 3.1(b) based on the amount of the difference.
5.1.5 Implementation of Capex Budget. Tenant shall cause the work contemplated by the Approved Capex Budget to be performed in accordance with the Approved Capex Budget or as otherwise approved by Landlord and shall make expenditures from the Reserve as it deems necessary to pay the costs of such work taking into consideration the timing and amounts of the scheduled deposits into the Reserve. So long as Capital Expenditures from the Reserve are made in accordance with the Approved Capex Budget, such expenditures shall not be subject to Landlord’s approval; provided, however, Tenant may exceed the total amount budgeted in any Category of the Approved Capex Budget so long as the overage does not exceed: (i) the aggregate amount of the Approved Capex Budget, or (ii) ten percent (10%) of any budget Category. Tenant shall have the right to submit amendments and supplements to the Approved Capex Budget from time to time if Tenant determines that, as a result of occurrences after the approval of the Approved Capex Budget, the Approved Capex Budget is inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect. Landlord shall have the right to approve or disapprove the proposed amendments in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.1.3 above, except that any dispute relating to whether proposed expenditures contemplated in such amendment constitute Excess Capex shall be decided in the manner provided in Section 5.1.4 above.
5.1.6 Mortgagee Requirements. If the terms of any Mortgage requires that Landlord grant a security interest in or create another encumbrance on the Reserve, all or any part of the existing or future funds therein, or any general intangible in connection therewith, Landlord may grant such security interest or create such other encumbrance as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of such Mortgage provided that the instrument granting such security interest or creating such other encumbrance shall expressly provide that such security interest or encumbrance is subject to the rights of Tenant with respect to the Reserve as set forth herein. The form and substance of such provision shall be subject to Tenant’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If Landlord is required by the terms of any Mortgage to make deposits into a reserve for Capital Expenditures, Landlord obligations under Section 5.1.4 above shall be satisfied by making the deposits to Mortgagee in accordance with such requirements and the terms of this Section 5.1.6 shall be modified to the extent necessary to permit Landlord to comply with the requirements of the Mortgage.
5.1.7 Nonresponsibility of Landlord. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased
-23-
Property, or any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the Leased Property or on Landlord’s interest therein are expressly prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material furnished by Tenant or for any other purpose during the term of this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Leased Property, or any part thereof, or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property, or any part thereof, nor to subject Landlord’s estate in the Leased Property, or any part thereof, to liability under any mechanic’s lien law of the State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord’s estate shall not be subject to any such liability.
5.1.8 Limitation on Tenant’s Obligations. Tenant’s obligations under Section 5.1 shall be limited in the event of any casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Section 10.2 and Section 11.2 and Tenant’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Materials are as set forth in Section 4.3.
5.2 Tenant’s Personal Property. At the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect either: (a) to give Tenant Notice that Tenant shall be required, within thirty (30) Business Days after such expiration or termination, to remove all of Tenant’s Personal Property from the Leased Property; or (b) to pay Tenant’s book value of such Tenant’s Personal Property. Failure of Landlord to make such election shall be deemed an election to proceed in accordance with clause (b) preceding.
5.3 Yield Up. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, (i) Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Property to Landlord in substantially the same condition in which the Leased Property was on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, replaced, rebuilt, restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions of this Lease, reasonable wear and tear and Condemnation (and casualty damage, in the event that this Lease is terminated following a casualty in accordance with Article 10) excepted, and (ii) all Subleases, licenses, operating permits and other governmental authorizations and all contracts entered into by Tenant, including contracts with governmental or quasi-governmental Entities which may be necessary for the use and operation of the Project as then operated, but excluding: (a) all insurance contracts and multi-property contracts not limited in scope to the Leased Property, or this Lease; (b) all contracts and leases with Affiliated Persons; and (c) utility deposits (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as the “Assigned Agreements and Licenses”), shall be deemed to be automatically transferred, conveyed and assigned to Landlord. The foregoing assignment of the Assigned Agreements and Licenses shall be self-operative and effective without the necessity of execution of any new assignment or other document on the part of Tenant or any party to any of such agreements or licenses or their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver upon the request of Landlord, any instrument which in the reasonable judgment of Landlord may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such assignment. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless for all claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from acts or omissions by Landlord under such contracts subsequent to the date of transfer
-24-
thereof to Landlord; and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless for all claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising from acts or omission by Tenant under such contracts prior to the date of transfer thereof to Landlord.
ARTICLE 6
IMPROVEMENTS
6.1 Improvements to the Leased Property. Tenant shall not finance the cost of any construction by the granting of a lien on or security interest in the Leased Property, or Tenant’s interest therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion. Any such improvements shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, remain or pass to and become the property of Landlord, free and clear of all encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances.
6.2 Salvage. Other than Tenant’s Personal Property, all materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, replacements and additions pursuant to Article 5 shall be disposed of by Tenant and the net proceeds thereof, if any, shall be deposited in the Reserve.
ARTICLE 7
LIENS
Subject to Article 8, Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create or allow to remain and shall promptly discharge, at its expense, any lien, attachment, title retention agreement or claim upon the Leased Property or Tenant’s leasehold interest therein or any attachment, levy, claim or encumbrance in respect of the Rent, other than (a) Permitted Encumbrances, (b) restrictions, liens and other encumbrances which are consented to in writing by Landlord, (c) liens for those taxes of Landlord which Tenant is not required to pay hereunder, (d) subleases permitted by Article 16, (e) liens for Impositions or for sums resulting from noncompliance with Legal Requirements, so long as (i) the same are not yet due and payable, or (ii) are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (f) liens of mechanics, laborers, materialmen, suppliers or vendors incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable (but will be paid in full by Tenant) or are for sums that are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (g) any Mortgages or other liens which are the responsibility of Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Article 20, and (h) Landlord Liens.
ARTICLE 8
PERMITTED CONTESTS
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any Imposition, Legal Requirement, Insurance Requirement, Environmental Obligation, or any other Additional Charge, lien, attachment, levy, encumbrance, charge or claim (collectively, “Claims”) as to the Leased Property, by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, provided that (a) the foregoing shall in no way be construed as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant’s obligation to pay any Claims required hereunder to be paid by Tenant as finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement
-25-
encumbering the Leased Property or any part thereof or any interest therein or result in a lien attaching to the Leased Property, unless such lien is fully bonded or is otherwise secured to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, (c) no part of the Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of sale, forfeiture, attachment or loss, and (d) Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or reasonable expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or as a result thereof. Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith) unless Tenant agrees to assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to the same. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (i) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, (ii) to provide reasonable security therefor, or (iii) to prosecute or cause to be prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon Notice to Tenant, pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges.
ARTICLE 9
INSURANCE
9.1 Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, at all times insurance for Tenant and the Leased Property providing at least the following coverages:
(a) comprehensive “all risk” insurance on the Leased Property (which shall include comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance), in each case: (A) providing $300,000,000.00 per occurrence; (B) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Leased Property or waiving all co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of $100,000.00 for all such insurance coverage; and, (D) if any of the Leased Improvements or the use of the Leased Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses, providing coverage for contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements and containing an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement. In addition, Tenant shall obtain: (y) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a “special flood hazard area” designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, flood hazard insurance in the amount of $50,000,000.00; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord in the event the Leased Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic risk, provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under this subsection (a).
(b) Commercial General Liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Leased Property, with such insurance: (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be
-26-
changed by Landlord in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate as long as such coverage would be reasonably requested by and acceptable to an Institutional Investor, to the extent that a policy meeting the foregoing requirements (x) would be obtained by a reasonable and prudent investor for a property of comparable size, mass, construction, type, location and use as the Property, and (y) is generally available from two (2) or more insurers meeting the rating requirements set forth in Section 9.2; and, (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability; and (5) contractual liability covering the Tenant’s indemnities contained in this Lease to the extent the same is available.
(c) Loss of rents insurance or business income insurance, as applicable, (A) with loss payable to Landlord and its Mortgagee; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsection (a) above; and (C) which provides that after the physical loss to the Leased Property occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until such rents or income, as applicable, either return to the same level that existed prior to the loss, or the expiration of eighteen (18) months, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Leased Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date that the Leased Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Tenant’s reasonable estimate of permanent showroom revenue from the Leased Property for the succeeding period of coverage required above.
(d) At all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Leased Property, and only if the Leased Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (a) above written in a so-called Builder’s Risk Completed Value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against “all risks” insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions.
(e) Workers’ compensation, to the extent required by applicable law of the State, and employer’s liability insurance, with limits of not less than $1,000,000, in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operation (if applicable).
(f) Automobile liability including hired and non-owned liability in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit; and
-27-
(g) Excess liability insurance in an amount not less than $50,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance and automobile liability insurance required above.
(h) Upon sixty (60) days’ written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as would be reasonably requested by and acceptable to an Institutional Investor (as such term is hereinafter defined), to the extent that a policy meeting the foregoing requirements (x) would be obtained by a reasonable and prudent investor for a property of comparable size, mass, construction, type, location and use as the Property and (y) is generally available from two (2) or more insurers meeting the rating requirements set forth in this Section 9.1 herein. As used herein, “Institutional Investor” is defined as any bank, savings and loan association, trust company, insurance company, pension fund, credit union or real estate investment trust actively engaged in owning, acquiring and/or financing major commercial real estate properties in the United States of America.
(i) With respect to the Policies required to be maintained pursuant to subsections (a) through (d) above, during any period of the term of this Lease that the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (“TRIA”) is in effect, Tenant shall maintain coverage against all “certified acts of terrorism” as defined by TRIA and “non-certified acts of terrorism”. For any acts of terrorism not defined by TRIA as “certified acts of terrorism” and during any period during the term of the Loan that TRIA is not in effect, Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with those of prudent owners of institutional quality commercial real estate to maintain insurance coverage against losses resulting from such acts.
9.2 Form of Policies. All insurance provided for in Section 9.1 shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policy”), and to the extent specified in this Article 9 shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Landlord as to deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by at least two Rating Agencies, one of which must be S&P or such other rating agencies approved by Landlord, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Mortgagee providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Mortgagee. The Policies described in this Section 9.2 shall designate Landlord and its successors and assigns as additional insureds, mortgagees and/or loss payee as deemed appropriate by Landlord. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall deliver certified copies of all Policies to Landlord not later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the certificates of insurance of the Policies theretofore furnished to Landlord, certificates of insurance of the renewal Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Landlord of payment of the premiums currently due shall be delivered by Tenant to Landlord.
9.3 Blanket Policies. Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise
-28-
provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Leased Property in compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.3.
9.4 Endorsements. All Policies provided for in this Article 9 shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
(a) no act or negligence of Tenant, or anyone acting for Tenant, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as the Mortgagee is concerned;
(b) the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;
(c) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Landlord and its Mortgagee if the Policies have not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and
(d) Landlord and its Mortgagee shall not be liable for any insurance premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
9.5 Landlord’s Right to Obtain Coverage. If at any time Landlord is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Landlord shall have the right, upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Tenant, to take such action as Landlord deems reasonably necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Landlord in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Landlord in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon five (5) days written notice and, until paid shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
9.6 Insurance Costs and Expenses as Additional Charges. With respect to this Article 9, all insurance premiums, costs and other expenses, including any Insurance Retention (as defined below), shall be treated as an Imposition payable by Tenant as Additional Charges. All charges under the blanket programs shall be allocated to the Project. Any losses and associated costs and expenses, that are uninsured shall be treated as a cost of insurance and shall also be treated as an Imposition. “Insurance Retention” shall mean the insurance policy deductible; however, for any insurance obtained through the blanket insurance programs, “Insurance Retention” shall mean the Project’s per occurrence limit for any loss or reserve as established for the Project, which limit shall be the same as is applied to other properties participating in the blanket insurance programs, or such higher amount if mandated by the insurer for high hazard risks such as earthquake, flood and wind.
-29-
ARTICLE 10
CASUALTY
10.1 Insurance Proceeds. Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any property policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance, which shall be payable directly to Landlord and Tenant as their interests may appear) shall be paid directly to Landlord and all loss adjustments with respect to property losses payable to Tenant shall require the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair the Leased Property as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out to Tenant by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of the Leased Property necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.3. Any unexpended deductible amount and excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be retained by Tenant or, if escrowed, paid to Tenant. In the event that the provisions of Section 10.2 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Landlord, provided any rights to the same have been waived by the insurer.
10.2 Damage or Destruction.
10.2.1 Damage or Destruction of Leased Property. If, during the Term, the Leased Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and the Project located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to Landlord, terminate this Lease, whereupon, this Lease shall terminate and Landlord shall be entitled to retain the insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage.
10.2.2 Partial Damage or Destruction. If, during the Term, the Leased Property shall be partially destroyed but the Project is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, subject to Section 10.2.3, promptly restore the Project as provided in Section 10.2.4.
10.2.3 Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds the sum of the deductible and the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to Article 9, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Lease). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1(b)(i). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Lease shall terminate as provided
-30-
in Section 10.2.1. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible.
10.2.4 Repairs. In the event Tenant is required to restore the Leased Property pursuant to Section 10.2.2, Tenant shall commence promptly and continue diligently to perform the repair and restoration of the Leased Property (hereinafter called the “Work”), so as to restore the Leased Property in compliance with all Legal Requirements and so that the Leased Property shall be, to the extent practicable, substantially equivalent in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior to such damage or destruction. Subject to the terms hereof, the Landlord shall be required to advance the insurance proceeds and any additional amounts payable by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.2.3 to Tenant regularly during the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of any such restoration and repair. Any such advances shall be made not more than monthly within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant submits to Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord). Landlord may, at its option, require, prior to advancement of said insurance proceeds and other amounts by Landlord, (a) approval of plans and specifications by an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (b) general contractors’ estimates, (c) architect’s certificates, (d) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (e) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (f) deposit by Tenant of the applicable deductible amount with Landlord, and (g) such other terms as Landlord may reasonably require. Tenant’s obligation to restore the Leased Property pursuant to this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance proceeds by Landlord or directly to Tenant and, in the event such proceeds are insufficient, Landlord electing to make such deficiency available therefor.
10.3 Tenant’s Property. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be paid solely to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with Section 10.4, Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing damaged Tenant’s Personal Property.
10.4 Restoration of Tenant’s Property. If Tenant is required to restore the Leased Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and Tenant’s Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and Tenant’s Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of the Leased Property.
10.5 No Abatement of Rent. This Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Lease shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage involving the Leased Property (provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder). The provisions of this Article 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or destruction to the Leased Property and,
-31-
to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.
10.6 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Leased Property.
ARTICLE 11
CONDEMNATION
11.1 Total Condemnation. If either (a) the whole of the Leased Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (b) a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Leased Property renders the Leased Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Lease shall terminate and Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in the Leased Property as provided in Section 11.6.
11.2 Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Leased Property such that the Leased Property is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence promptly and continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of the Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as the Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Lease). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; in such event, following any disbursement by Landlord thereof and upon completion of such repairs, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1(b)(i). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease and the entire Award shall be retained by Landlord.
11.3 Disbursement of Award. Subject to the terms hereof, Tenant shall transfer any part of the Award received, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements to Landlord for the purpose of funding the cost of the repair or restoration. Landlord may require, at its option, prior to advancement of such Award and other amounts, (a) approval of plans and specifications by an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (b) general contractors’ estimates, (c) architect’s certificates, (d) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, and (e) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is
-32-
required. Obligations under this Section 11.3 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (i) the collection thereof and (ii) the release of such Award by the applicable Mortgagee. Tenant’s obligation to restore the Leased Property shall be subject to the availability of the Award to fund the cost of such repair or restoration upon its compliance with this Section 11.3.
11.4 Abatement of Rent. In the event of a partial condemnation pursuant to Section 11.2 of this Lease, Rent shall be proportionately abated as agreed upon by Tenant and Landlord, or if the Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree, as determined by arbitration pursuant to this Lease.
11.5 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of any temporary Condemnation of the Leased Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay, in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent. Tenant shall continue to perform and observe all of the other terms and conditions of this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed. The entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the Leased Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration. For purposes of this Section 11.5, a Condemnation shall be deemed to be temporary if the period of such Condemnation is not expected to, and does not, exceed twelve (12) months.
11.6 Allocation of Award. Except as provided in Section 11.5 and the second sentence of this Section 11.6, the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord. Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking of Tenant’s Personal Property, or Tenant’s removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2). In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

Upon the occurrence of any of the Events of Default described in Section 12.1(b) through 12.1(h) above, Landlord shall not have the right to terminate this Lease or otherwise disturb Tenant’s right to possession of the Leased Property, but instead shall be entitled to pursue any and all other remedies at law or in equity to which it may be entitled to pursue in accordance with all Legal Requirements.
12.4 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. LANDLORD AND TENANT HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER OR IN RESPECT OF ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LANDLORD AND TENANT HEREUNDER, TENANT’S OCCUPANCY OF THE LEASED PROPERTY, AND/OR ANY CLAIM FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE.

-35-
12.6 Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Default Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.
12.7 Good Faith Dispute. If Tenant shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Default and Tenant, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Landlord, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor and, provided Tenant shall escrow disputed amounts, if any, pursuant to an escrow arrangement reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred; provided, however, that in the event of any eventual adverse determination, Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest on any disputed funds at the Interest Rate, from the date demand for such funds was made by Landlord until the date of final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Default Rate until paid.

Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over.

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of any materially adverse matters affecting the Leased Property of which Landlord receives written notice or actual, conscious, present knowledge and, to the extent Tenant otherwise has no notice or actual knowledge thereof, Landlord shall be liable for any liabilities, costs, damages or claims (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from the failure to deliver such Notice to Tenant. Subject to Article 20, Landlord shall not enter into or amend any agreement directly affecting the operation of Leased Property without Tenant’s prior written consent.

Thereafter, Tenant may (but shall have no obligation to) cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with interest thereon from the date Landlord receives Tenant’s invoice, at the Default Rate. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder.
If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof; provided, however, that in the event of any such adverse determination, Landlord shall pay to Tenant interest on any disputed funds at the Interest Rate, from the date demand for such funds was made by Tenant until the date of final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Default Rate until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 14.3 shall control in the event of a default under Section 5.1.4.
14.3 Special Remedies for Landlord Funding Default. In the event of any Landlord Default arising under Section 5.1.4, and such Landlord Default is not cured within thirty (30) days after Notice of such Landlord Default is given to Landlord by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right, in Tenant’s sole discretion, in addition to all other remedies of Tenant hereunder, to terminate this Lease by giving Notice of termination of this Lease to Landlord, whereupon this Lease shall terminate on the date set forth in such Notice.

(c) If this Lease is assigned or if the Leased Property or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant) in violation of this Lease, Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent then due and payable by Tenant, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Lease.
Except as set forth in Section 16.1(b), no subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no

Any Sublease of all or any portion of the Leased Property entered into on or after the date hereof shall be made on Tenant’s standard form from time to time in effect.

MORTGAGES
20.1 Landlord’s Mortgage. Without the consent of Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement (“Mortgage”) upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing.
20.2 Subordination of Lease. This Lease as the same may hereafter be modified, amended or extended, and all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Leased Property, and all rights and privileges of Tenant to the Leased Property are hereby and shall at all times be subject and subordinate to the any first lien Mortgage and all liens and security interests securing payment of any such Mortgage. Upon Notice from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant, subordinating this Lease to any first lien Mortgage. If any holder of an first lien Mortgage or the nominee or designee of any such holder or any successful purchaser at any foreclosure of such Mortgage, shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease (any such person, “Successor Landlord”), the Successor Landlord shall not have any liability under the Lease prior to the date Successor Landlord shall succeed to the interest of “Landlord” under this Lease, nor any liability for claims, offsets or defenses which Tenant might have had against the Landlord prior to the date Successor Landlord shall have succeeded to the interest of “Landlord” under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that upon conveyance of title to the Leased Property, to the Successor Landlord, Tenant shall attorn to the Successor Landlord and shall continue to perform all of Tenant’s obligations with respect to the Leased Property in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Tenant shall be under no obligation to so attorn unless the Successor Landlord, within twenty (20) days after the date of foreclosure, assumes all of the obligations of the “Landlord” under the Lease which arise from and after the date of foreclosure, pursuant to a written assumption agreement which shall be delivered to Tenant.
20.3 Notices. Subsequent to the receipt by Tenant of Notice from Landlord as to the identity of any first lien Mortgage (which Notice shall be accompanied by a copy of the applicable mortgage or lease), no notice from Tenant to Landlord as to the Leased Property shall
-43-
be effective unless and until a copy of the same is given to such first lien Mortgage at the address set forth in the above described Notice, and the curing of any of Landlord’s defaults by the holder of such Mortgage shall be treated as performance by Landlord.

ARTICLE 22
MISCELLANEOUS
22.1 Limitation on Payment of Rent. All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Lease exceed the maximum permissible under Legal Requirements, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance
-45-
whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Lease, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto, the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive amount. This provision shall control every other provision of this Lease and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.
22.2 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.
22.3 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Lease or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies.
22.4 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Lease held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Lease, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein.
22.5 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Lease or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.
22.6 No Merger of Title. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Lease or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Leased Property.
22.7 Conveyance by Landlord. If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall convey all or any portion of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms of this Lease (specifically including Article 15) other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Leased Property shall expressly assume all
-46-
obligations of Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Lease with respect to such of the Leased Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.
22.8 Quiet Enjoyment. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Mortgage permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate the Project and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant the right to cancel or terminate this Lease or xxxxx, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Lease, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.
22.9 Memorandum of Lease. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease. However, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly, upon the request of the other, enter into a short form memorandum of this Lease, in form suitable for recording under the laws of the State, and all options contained herein, shall be made. The parties shall share equally all costs and expenses of recording such memorandum.
22.10 Notices.
(a) Any and all notices, demands, consents, approvals, offers, elections and other communications required or permitted under this Lease shall be deemed adequately given if in writing and the same shall be delivered either in hand, by telecopier with written acknowledgment of receipt, or by mail or Federal Express or similar expedited commercial carrier, addressed to the recipient of the notice, postpaid and registered or certified with return receipt requested (if by mail), or with all freight charges prepaid (if by Federal Express or similar carrier).

-49-
22.11 Construction; Nonrecourse. Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, all claims against, and liabilities of, Tenant or Landlord arising prior to any date of termination or expiration of this Lease with respect to the Leased Property shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease (including without limitation, any monetary, repair and indemnification obligations); provided, however, that each party shall be required to give the other Notice of any such surviving and unsatisfied obligations within one year after the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. Neither this Lease nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties thereto. All the terms and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Each term or provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant shall be construed as an independent covenant and condition. Time is of the essence with respect to the exercise of any rights of Tenant or Landlord under this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to create or impose any liabilities or obligations and no such liabilities or obligations shall be imposed on any of the shareholders, beneficial owners, direct or indirect, officers, directors, trustees, employees or agents of Landlord or Tenant for the payment or performance of the obligations or liabilities of Landlord or Tenant hereunder. Further, in the event Landlord shall be in default under this Lease, and if as a consequence of such default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be subject to the rights of any Mortgagee, and in any event satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Leased Property.
22.12 Counterparts; Headings. This Lease may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument and shall become effective as of the date hereof when copies hereof, which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the parties hereto shall have been signed. Headings in this Lease are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or affect the meaning of the provisions hereof.
22.13 Legal Requirements. This Lease shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State applicable to contracts between residents of the State which are to be performed entirely within the State, regardless of (a) where this Lease is executed or delivered; or (b) where any payment or other performance required by this Lease is made or required to be made; or (c) where any breach of any provision of this Lease occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (d) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (e) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (f) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State; or (g) any combination of the foregoing.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any action to enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any of the provisions of this Lease may be brought and prosecuted in such court or courts located in the State as is provided by law; and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of said court or courts located in the State and to service of process by registered mail, return receipt requested, or by any other manner provided by law.
-50-
22.14 Right to Make Lease. Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither the execution of this Lease, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby, shall violate any provision of any law, or any judgment, writ, injunction, order or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over it; nor result in or constitute a breach or default under any indenture, contract, other commitment or restriction to which it is a party or by which it is bound; nor require any consent, vote or approval which has not been given or taken, or at the time of the transaction involved shall not have been given or taken. Each party covenants that it has and will continue to have throughout the term of this Lease and any extensions thereof, the full right to enter into this Lease and perform its obligations hereunder.
22.15 Disclosure of Information. Any Proprietary Information obtained by Landlord with respect to Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be used, subject to confidentiality safeguards mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, in any litigation between the parties and except further that, Landlord may disclose such information to its prospective lenders, provided that Landlord shall direct and obtain the agreement of such lenders to maintain such information as confidential.
The parties hereto agree that the matters set forth in this Lease and any revenue, expense, net profit, and occupancy information provided by Tenant are strictly confidential and each party will make every effort to ensure that the information is not disclosed to any Person that is not an Affiliated Person as to any party (including the press) without the prior written consent of the other party, except as may be required by law and as may be reasonably necessary to obtain licenses, permits and other public approvals necessary for the refurbishment or operation of the Project, or, subject to the restrictions of this Section 22.15 relative to the contents of any Prospectus, in connection with a Landlord financing, a sale of the Project, or a sale of a controlling interest in Tenant.
No reference to Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons will be made in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering circular or offering documentation related thereto (collectively, the “Prospectus”), issued by Landlord or any of its Affiliated Persons, which is designed to interest potential investors in the Project, unless Tenant has previously received and approved a copy of all such references. No Prospectus shall include rate and occupancy data or revenue, expense or net profit information pertaining to the Project. Regardless of whether Tenant so receives a copy of the Prospectus, neither Tenant nor its Affiliated Persons will be deemed a sponsor of the offering described in the Prospectus, nor will it have any responsibility for the Prospectus, and the Prospectus will so state. Unless Tenant agrees in advance, the Prospectus will not include any trademark, symbols, logos or designs of Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against all loss, costs, liability and damage (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, and all cost of litigation) arising out of any Prospectus or the offering described therein; and this obligation of Landlord shall survive termination of this Lease.
The obligations of Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 22.15 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
22.16 Software. Any computer software (including upgrades and replacements) at the Project owned by Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons, or the licensor of any of them is
-51-
proprietary to Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons, or the licensor of any of them, and shall in all events remain the exclusive property of Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons or the licensor of any of them, as the case may be, and nothing contained in this Lease shall confer on Landlord the right to use any of such software. Tenant shall have the right to remove from the Project without compensation to Landlord any computer software (including upgrades and replacements), including, without limitation, the system software, owned by Tenant or any of its Affiliated Persons or the licensor of any of them.
22.17 OFAC Representation. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant is currently in compliance with and shall at all times during the Term (including any extension thereof) remain in compliance with the regulations of the OFAC of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specialty Designated and Blocked Persons List) and any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action relating thereto.
22.18 Additional Provisions. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, to the extent of any conflict between the terms and provisions of Schedule 22.18 and any other provision of this Lease, the terms of Schedule 22.18 shall prevail.
