The Base Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments as set forth above and shall be due and payable in advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Term without deduction, offset, or prior notice or demand except as expressly provided in this Sublease or the Master Lease. If in any calendar month, the first day thereof shall fall on a Saturday, Sunday or Holiday, then the due date shall be extended to be the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or Holiday. Rent shall be paid to Sublandlord by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds to Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, for credit to Lantana HP, Ltd.,
-2-
or such other account written notice of which Sublandlord shall have given to Subtenant not less than sixty (60) days’ prior to the first due date for Rent on which Sublandlord makes the change effective. The obligations of Subtenant to pay Rent to Sublandlord and the obligations of Sublandlord under this Sublease are independent obligations. Base Rent, adjusted as herein provided, shall be payable monthly in advance, without notice or demand. The first monthly installment of Base Rent is due on the Commencement Date; thereafter, Base Rent shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month from and after the Commencement Date; provided, however, that if the Commencement Date shall occur on other than the first day of a calendar month, then the first installment of Rent due on the Commencement Date shall be prorated for the partial calendar month in which the Commencement Date occurs.
B. Additional Rent. All monies other than Base Rent required to be paid by Subtenant under this Sublease shall be deemed additional rent (“Sublease Additional Rent”). Subtenant acknowledges that Sublandlord is required to pay to Master Landlord “Additional Rent” under the Master Lease, and estimated payments thereof and adjustments thereto under Article V of the Master Lease (collectively, “Master Lease Additional Rent”). Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as Sublease Additional Rent hereunder, all of such Master Lease Additional Rent and any other sums which are included in the definition of “Rent” under the Master Lease and that Sublandlord is required to pay to Master Landlord.
During the Term, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord monthly installments of Sublease Additional Rent in advance on the first day of each calendar month and otherwise on the same terms and conditions described above with respect to Base Rent. Unless a shorter time period is specified in this Sublease, all payments of miscellaneous Rent charges hereunder (that is, all Rent other than Base Rent and Master Lease Additional Rent) shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days following Master Landlord’s delivery to Subtenant of an invoice therefor. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that each provision of this Sublease for determining charges and amounts payable by Subtenant (including provisions regarding Sublease Additional Rent) is commercially reasonable and, as to each such charge or amount, constitutes a statement of the amount of the charge or a method by which the charge is to be computed for purposes of Section 93.012 of the Texas Property Code. Sublandlord shall promptly forward the Master Landlord’s estimate of Master Lease Additional Rent (and any adjustments thereto by Master Landlord), any appropriate invoices received from Master Landlord, Master Landlord’s Reconciliation Statements, and any other estimates, invoices or statements that Master Landlord provides to Sublandlord with respect to any Master Lease Additional Rent. Subtenant and Sublandlord agree, as a material part of the consideration given by Subtenant to Sublandlord for this Sublease, that this Sublease is intended to be a net sublease and in accordance therewith Subtenant shall pay any Rent owed by Sublandlord to Master Landlord under the Master Lease. Any overpayments or underpayments of Master Lease Additional Rent, shall be handled directly between Master Landlord and Subtenant in accordance with Section 5.4(a) of the Master Lease, and Sublandlord agrees to remit any refunds that it receives from Master Landlord for overpayments of Rent to Subtenant within ten (10) Business Days.
5. Omitted.
6. Holdover: Subtenant acknowledges that it is critical that Subtenant surrender the Subleased Premises on or before the expiration or earlier termination of the Sublease in accordance with the terms of this Sublease. If Subtenant does not surrender possession of the Subleased Premises at the end of the Term (or if the Term of this Sublease is extended, the end of such extended term), such action shall not extend the Term or extended term, Subtenant shall be a tenant at sufferance, and during such time of occupancy Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, as damages, an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amount of Base Rent that was being paid immediately prior to the end of the initial Term (or the extended term, as applicable) for the first sixty (60) days of such holdover and, thereafter, an
-3-
amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount of Base Rent that was being paid immediately prior to the end of the initial Term (or the extended term, as applicable). The provisions of this Section 7 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Sublandlord provided herein or at law. If Subtenant fails to surrender the Subleased Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Sublease, in addition to any other liabilities to Sublandlord accruing therefrom, Subtenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Sublandlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including any claims made by Master Landlord or any succeeding subtenant of Sublandlord founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits or other consequential damages to Master Landlord or to Sublandlord resulting therefrom.
7. “AS IS” Condition; Master Landlord’s Obligations: The parties acknowledge and agree that Subtenant, as the former owner of the Subleased Premises, will already be in possession of the Subleased Premises as of the Commencement Date and that Subtenant is subleasing the Subleased Premises on an “AS IS” basis. NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE REGARDING THE CONDITION OR SUITABILITY OF THE SUBLEASED PREMISES ON THE COMMENCEMENT DATE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT WARRANTY, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY MADE BY THE MASTER LANDLORD UNDER THE MASTER LEASE, AND SUBTENANT HAS NOT RELIED ON ANY SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES. FURTHER, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SUBTENANT WAIVES ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF SUITABILITY, HABITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE SUBLEASED PREMISES OR OTHER IMPLIED WARRANTIES THAT SUBLANDLORD WILL MAINTAIN OR REPAIR THE SUBLEASED PREMISES OR ITS APPURTENANCES EXCEPT AS MAY BE CLEARLY AND EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS SUBLEASE. Subtenant has fully inspected the Subleased Premises and is satisfied with the condition thereof. Subtenant is accepting the Subleased Premises in its then-existing, “AS IS” condition, without any representation or warranty whatsoever from Sublandlord with respect thereto.
8. Assignment and Subletting: Subtenant’s rights to assign this Sublease or sublease all or a portion of the Subleased Premises shall be governed by the terms and provisions of Article VIII of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein by reference, except that Master Landlord’s consent shall also be required for any such assignment or subletting other than Permitted Transfers that satisfy the criteria under Section 8.8 of the Master Lease and shared space arrangements that satisfy the criteria under Section 8.9 of the Master Lease.
9. Use: Subtenant may use the Subleased Premises for any use allowed under the Master Lease, including, the Permitted Uses. Subtenant’s use of the Subleased Premises shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Master Lease.
10. Effect of Conveyance: As used in this Sublease, the term “Sublandlord” means the holder of the Tenant’s interest under the Master Lease. In the event of any Permitted Transfer or other Transfer consented to by Master Landlord of the Tenant’s interest under the Master Lease and subject to the terms and conditions of Article VIII of the Master Lease, the proposed transferee shall deliver to Subtenant a written agreement whereby it expressly assumes Sublandlord’s obligations hereunder. If Sublandlord is expressly released under the terms of the Master Lease of its obligations as Tenant under the Master Lease, Sublandlord shall be relieved of all covenants and obligations of Sublandlord which may accrue from and after the effective date of its release under the Master Lease.
11. Improvements: Subtenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Subleased Premises except in accordance with the Master Lease.

12. Release and Waiver of Subrogation: Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that the waiver of subrogation set forth in Section 6.5(c) of the Master Lease shall apply to Sublandlord and Subtenant.
13. Insurance: Subtenant shall obtain and keep in full force and effect, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, during the Term the insurance required to be carried by the “Tenant” under the Master Lease. Subtenant shall include Sublandlord and Master Landlord as an additional insured in any policy of insurance carried by Subtenant in connection with this Sublease to the extent that the Master Lease requires the “Tenant” to include the Master Landlord as an additional insured under the “Tenant’s” policy and shall provide Sublandlord and Master Landlord with evidence of such insurance in the same manner and form as the “Tenant” is required to provide under the Master Lease.
14. Default: Subtenant shall be in default of its obligations under this Sublease if Subtenant fails to perform any act, or commits an act or omission, that would constitute an Event of Default under the Master Lease or fails to perform any of its obligations under this Sublease within the time period provided hereunder if a time period is provided in this Sublease or within the time period provided in the Master Lease if no time period is given herein and after the giving of any notice and the passage of any time required under the Master Lease before such event constitutes an Event of Default by Master Tenant under the Master Lease. Sublandlord shall be in default of its obligations under this Sublease if Sublandlord fails to perform any act, or commits an act or omission, that would constitute an Event of Default by Master Landlord under the Master Lease (to the extent Sublandlord is required to perform such obligation under this Sublease) or fails to perform any of its obligations under this Sublease within the time period provided hereunder if a time period is provided in this Sublease or within the time period provided in the Master Lease if no time period is given herein and after the giving of any notice and the passage of any time required under the Master Lease before such event constitutes an Event of Default by Master Landlord under the Master Lease.
15. Remedies: In the event of any default by Subtenant, Sublandlord shall have all remedies provided to the “Landlord” under Article IX of the Master Lease as if an “Event of Default” had occurred thereunder. In the event of any default by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall have all remedies provided to the “Tenant” under Section 9.5(b) of the Master Lease together with all other rights and remedies otherwise provided or available to Master Tenant under the Master Lease for an Event of Default by Master Landlord.

21. No Drafting Presumption: The parties acknowledge that this Sublease has been agreed to by both the parties, that both Sublandlord and Subtenant have consulted with attorneys with respect to the terms of this Sublease and that no presumption shall be created against Sublandlord because Sublandlord drafted this Sublease.
