8.2. |
A. | Within twenty-eight (28) days from the execution of this Agreement, the Tenant undertakes to provide to the Landlord a detailed work plan, signed and approved by an architect, for the completion of the interior finish work at the Leased Premises.

Should there be a delay of more than twenty-one (21) days in completing the approved Working Drawings after July 1, 2006 that does not result from the Tenant’s requests for modifications, the Landlord undertakes to compensate the Tenant in accordance with Section 22.3 below. |

The Tenant undertakes to coordinate the work with the Landlord’s project manager. The parties undertake to cooperate in any matter relating to the performance of simultaneous work. |
9. | PROCEDURE FOR DELIVERY OF POSSESSION OF LEASED PREMISES |
9.1. | The Landlord will notify the Tenant, by March 26, 2006, of the date for completion of the remodel work and the precise date (between July 1 and July 15, 2006) on which the Landlord intends to deliver possession of the Leased Premises to the Tenant. It is clarified that delivery of possession of the Leased Premises is conditioned upon the Tenant’s signature of the Management Agreement, as defined below, and provision of a bank guarantee, as defined below. | ||
9.2. | One week prior to delivery of possession of the Leased Premises, the Leased Premises shall be inspected in the presence of representatives of the Tenant and the Landlord, and a protocol of the visit shall be written. The protocol shall contain any detail in which, in the Tenant’s opinion, the Leased Premises differ from the specifications of the technical specifications and/or from the Working Drawings. The protocol shall be signed by the Tenant or anyone on its behalf and by a representative of the Landlord. However, this shall not constitute an admission on the part of the Landlord of any alleged defects in the Leased Premises. After the |
-7-
defects are corrected, an additional inspection shall be made of the Leased Premises and a final delivery protocol shall be written for receiving possession of the Leased Premises. | |||
9.3. | Should any inconsistencies or defects exist, which preclude the use of the Leased Premises for the Lease purpose or in order for the Tenant to continue performing work at the Leased Premises, should any work be necessary, the Date of Delivery of Possession shall be postponed for the period of time required for making the repairs. A new protocol will be written, as stated above, on the postponed Date of Delivery of Possession, subject to Section 8.2 above. | ||
9.4. | Should any inconsistencies or immaterial defects exist, which do not preclude the Tenant’s reasonable use of the Leased Premises, the Tenant undertakes to receive possession of the Leased Premises. This does not derogate from the Landlord’s obligation to repair the defects and/or the inconsistencies, insofar as any exist. | ||
9.5. | The Landlord shall bear responsibility for repairing any defect or deficiency in the construction of the Leased Premises. The Landlord and/or anyone on its behalf shall repair, at its expense, any defect in the Leased Premises resulting from non-compliance with the technical specifications and/or the Working Drawings and/or from defective work, or from the use of defective materials. In instances where the defect precludes use of the Leased Premises for the Lease purpose, the defect shall be remedied at the earliest possible opportunity. In other instances, the defects shall be remedied within a reasonable amount of time from the Date of Delivery of Possession. | ||
9.6. | The Landlord shall not be liable for any inconsistency and/or defect and/or deficiency resulting from the work that the Tenant performs to the Leased Premises not by means of the Landlord and/or by means of materials that the Tenant chose to provide for the Leased Premises, not by means of the Landlord. | ||
9.7. | The Date of Delivery of Possession may be delayed as a result of any statutory provision (including a regulation and order) that is not in effect on the date of this Agreement and which causes a statewide delay in construction, state of war, general mobilization, statewide strike or force majeure. Should there be a delay as a result of any or all of the foregoing reasons, then the Date of Delivery of Possession shall be extended for the foregoing period of delay. Said delay shall not be deemed a violation of the Agreement on the part of the Landlord, nor shall the Landlord be required to pay the Tenant any compensation on account thereof. | ||
9.8. | The Tenant’s signature on the final protocol for receipt of possession of the Leased Premises shall constitute evidence of the fact that the Leased Premises have been delivered to the Tenant in accordance with this Agreement, subject to any additional notes that have been added to the protocol. |
-8-
9.9. | Should the Date of Delivery of Possession be postponed due to an act and/or omission of the Tenant, including lateness in submitting the Working Drawings, the Tenant shall be required, in any case, to pay the Rent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Tenant shall further be required to bear any taxes, payments and expenses applying thereto during the Lease Period, in accordance with the Agreement, as of July 1, 2006 onwards. Should the Date of Delivery of Possession be postponed due to the Landlord’s lateness in completing the remodel work, said date shall be postponed in relation to the Landlord’s lateness. |

10.5. | It is hereby agreed that the Tenant shall be exempt from payment of Rent during the first five (5) months of the Lease Period and from the last month of the lease during the seventh year of the lease. This exemption from Rent is granted to the Tenant as a period that has been agreed upon in advance for completion of the remodel work and in order to enable the Tenant to become organized, and is unconnected to the actual duration of time during which the remodel work and organization actually took place. It is hereby clarified that the Tenant shall not be exempt from payment of the management fees, for the entire duration of the Lease Period. | ||
10.6. | At the signing of the Agreement, the Tenant shall pay the Landlord an amount equal to US$700,000 (Seven Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) plus Value Added Tax, as a down payment on the Rent for the Lease Period (hereinafter: the “Down Payment”). At the beginning of each year of the Lease, as of the second year of the Lease Period until the seventh year (inclusive), an amount equal to US$100,000 plus Value Added Tax shall be deducted on account of the Rent for the last lease months of the Lease Period, until the Down Payment has been completely deducted. | ||
As a condition for payment of the Down Payment, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant a bank guarantee equal to US$700,000 plus Value Added Tax. The guarantee amount shall be reduced by US$100,000 at the beginning of each lease year, as of the second year. The guarantee shall be an autonomous, unconditional bank guarantee effective for thirty (30) days from the end of the Lease Period. The guarantee amount shall be dollar-linked and shall be made payable to the Tenant. It is agreed that the Tenant shall not be permitted to exercise its rights under the guarantee, unless the Landlord materially violated the Agreement and the Tenant had provided the Landlord written notice of the violation fourteen days in advance, while the Landlord failed to remedy said violation during this period. The Tenant shall return the guarantee to the Landlord after thirty (30) days have lapsed from the end of the Lease Period or from the termination of the Lease Agreement. The Tenant shall pay the Landlord the cost of the bank guarantee in advance, at the beginning of each lease year. The cost of the bank guarantee shall be in accordance with accepted market practice and not more than 1% of the guarantee balance. | |||
10.7. | Unless otherwise instructed by the Landlord, the Tenant shall pay the Rent to the Landlord by means of direct deposit to the bank account of Kidmat High-Tech Xxxxxx (2001) & Co., which is a registered partnership in which all of the parties comprising the Landlord are partners. Said |
-10-
parties established this partnership for the purpose of constructing the Building. The Rent shall be remitted against issuance of an invoice. The details of the bank account belonging to Kidmat Xxxxxx High-Tech are as follows: Account No. 303800/96, Branch No. 707 of Bank Leumi le-Israel Ltd., in Petach Tikva. | |||
10.8. | The Tenant declares that it was informed by the Landlord that a first-ranking mortgage is registered over the Leased Premises in favor of Bank Leumi. Therefore, the Landlord pledges and assigns to Bank Leumi all of its rights vis-à-vis the Tenant. The Landlord further instructs the Tenant to pay all of the monies due from the Tenant to the Landlord under this Agreement, to the account of Kidmat High-Tech, the details of which are provided in Section 10.7 above. The Tenant’s signature on this Agreement constitutes its consent and undertaking to act in accordance with the foregoing. |
11. | MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF BUILDING |
11.1. | For the purpose of performing the services relating to the management and maintenance of the Building, the Landlord has contracted with a professional management company, which shall provide the aforementioned services. This company is N.T.M. Asset Management Ltd. or a separate company controlled by the N.T.M. company, which was established by N.T.M. especially for this purpose. |
Appendix E |
The Management Agreement is attached hereto as Appendix E, and the Tenant undertakes to sign said agreement as a condition for receiving possession of the Leased Premises. Should the Tenant fail to sign the Management Agreement, its signature on Appendix E shall be deemed to be its signature of the Management Agreement. The Management Agreement shall become effective as of the Date of Delivery of Possession. The Tenant undertakes to fulfill the provisions of the Management Agreement and of any law, regulation, order or bylaw in connection with the Leased Premises, with the possession and with the use thereof. The Tenant shall further bear the consequences of violation of these undertakings. The management company’s violation of the Management Agreement shall be considered a violation of this Lease Agreement, provided that the Tenant has provided written notice to the Landlord, by registered mail, of the management company’s violation of the Management Agreement, and the Landlord failed to remedy the violation and/or to replace the management company within 30 days of receiving said notice. |
11.2. | In addition, the Tenant undertakes to pay the complete management fees to the Management Company in a timely fashion. Failure to pay the management fees or lateness in payment thereof shall be deemed for all intents and purposes failure to pay or lateness in paying Rent. This is in addition to the sanctions provided in the Management Agreement in this regard. It is hereby clarified that should the Tenant fail to pay the management fees as a result of any contentions it may have against the Management Company and while the Tenant is in the midst of conducting |
-11-
negotiations or legal proceedings against the Management Company, failure to pay the management fees shall not be deemed a violation of the Lease Agreement. | |||
11.3. | The Landlord undertakes that there will not be an average annual price increase in the management fees exceeding 15%. Should the annual price increase of the management fees exceed 15%, the Landlord shall pay the difference that exceeds the 15%. | ||
11.4. | Notwithstanding the statements provided hereinabove and hereinafter and/or in the Management Agreement, the Landlord and the Tenant hereby agree that should a contradiction arise between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Management Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. |

The Tenant is aware that electricity shall be supplied to public areas in the Building by means of an accumulator that shall be installed by the Landlord and at the Landlord’s expense. Electricity use shall be charged in accordance with the Management Agreement, as detailed therein. | |||
13. | TAXES AND OTHER PAYMENTS |
13.1. | The Tenant undertakes to pay, for the entire Lease Period, all of the taxes, fees, property taxes and mandatory levies, both municipal and governmental, ongoing or one-time, that are imposed and that will be imposed in the future on holders of assets such as the Leased Premises.

13.2. | The Tenant undertakes for the entire duration of the Lease Period, to cover, fully and in a timely fashion, any expenses and payments connected with its use of the Leased Premises.

14. | LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION |
-12-
14.1. | The Landlord and anyone acting on its behalf shall not be held responsible in any manner whatsoever for any damage and/or harm caused to the Tenant and/ or to its property, unless the damage was caused as a result of an act or omission of the Landlord and/or its employees and/or anyone on its behalf. The Tenant hereby waives any claim, argument or demand it may have against the Landlord. | ||
14.2. | For the avoidance of doubt and without derogating from the provisions of Section 14.1 above, it is clarified that the Landlord and/or anyone on its behalf shall not bear responsibility and/or any liability for bodily injury and/or loss and/or damage to property of any kind whatsoever that shall be suffered by the Tenant and/or its workers and/or its clients and/or anyone on its behalf. This includes, without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, employees, agents, contractors, clients, visitors and any other person found on the Leased Premises, unless the damage was caused as result of an act or omission of the Landlord and/or anyone on its behalf. | ||
14.3. | The Tenant alone shall bear responsibility under law for any direct loss and/or damage to the Leased Premises and/or the Building and/or to the contents thereof and/or to any person and/or corporation, including to its employees and/or to the Landlord and/or to anyone on its behalf and/or to visitors to the Building and/or to any other person, which stems from possession of and/or use of the Leased Premises and/or from any action or omission of the Tenant and/or anyone on its behalf. | ||
14.4. | The Tenant undertakes to indemnify the Landlord for any payment that the Landlord pays or is required to pay pursuant to a court judgment, for any damage, loss or injury as stated in Section 14.3 above (including legal expenses). This excludes damage that was caused as a result of an action or omission of the Landlord, and only as a result of a claim for which a conclusive judgment was issued or a settlement was reached. This is provided that the Landlord notifies the Tenant immediately upon being served the claim and grants the Tenant a fair opportunity to defend itself against the claim. The Landlord shall not reach a settlement in the abovementioned claim without receiving the Tenant’s prior written consent. |
15. | VACATING THE PREMISES |
15.1. |
15.1.1. | The Tenant undertakes to vacate the Leased Premises on the date of vacating the Leased Premises, and shall return possession thereof to the Landlord and/or to anyone so instructed by the Landlord, free from any person or object belonging to the Tenant. This is subject to normal wear and tear resulting from ordinary use. The Leased Premises shall include any renovation, improvement, addition, modification or repair of the Leased Premises. Notwithstanding, the Tenant shall be entitled to remove and take any addition it had installed, |
-13-
provided that it returns the Leased Premises to its original state, undamaged and in good condition, with the exception of normal wear and tear. | |||
15.1.2. | Should the Agreement be terminated as a result of the Tenant’s breach thereof under the circumstances set forth herein, or in any other instance in which the Leased Premises have been vacated for any other reason, the Leased Premises shall be delivered to the Landlord or to anyone so instructed by the Landlord, complete with any renovation, improvement, modification or repair made to the Leased Premises. Nevertheless, the Tenant shall be permitted to remove and take any addition it had installed, provided that it returns the Leased Premises to its original state, undamaged and in good condition, with the exception of normal wear and tear. |
15.2. | Without derogating from any other right of the Landlord under this Agreement and/or under any law, the Tenant undertakes that should it fail to vacate the Leased Premises in accordance with Section 15.1 above, the following conditions will apply: |
15.2.1. | For the period between the date originally designated for vacating the Leased Premises and the actual date of vacating, the Tenant shall pay the Landlord an amount equal to twice the amount of the last installment of the Rent that it had paid to the Landlord, for each month or any part thereof. The Tenant declares that this amount has been determined and agreed by the parties as fixed damage fees that have been agreed in advance. These fees have been estimated by the parties in advance, with discretion, as the reasonable amount of the damage incurred by the Landlord for failure to vacate the Leased Premises in a timely fashion. | ||
15.2.2. | The Landlord shall be entitled to claim and to receive from the Tenant any payment, tax, obligation, expense or any other payment for the period between the date originally designated for vacating the Leased Premises and the actual date of vacating, as if the Lease Period had continued.

16.2. | Notwithstanding any other provisions to the contrary contained herein or in the agreement with the management company, it is hereby stipulated and agreed that the Landlord shall insure, at its expense, the Building structure for its reconstruction value. Insurance shall cover losses detailed in Section 16.1.3 above. The Landlord shall ensure that the insurance policies are kept up to date for the entire Lease Period. The policy shall be expanded to cover loss of Rent that the Tenant was required to pay the Landlord, for a period of not less than twelve months. The Landlord undertakes to use the insurance payments first and foremost for repairing the damage to the Building. It is hereby stipulated and agreed that it is possible that the Building’s management company will take out the aforementioned insurance policies and that the insurance costs will be part of the management company expenses that are collected from the Tenant as part of the management fees. | ||

-15-
16.3.1. | The Tenant shall take out the insurance policies from a lawfully authorized insurance company. The Tenant shall take care to update the insurance amounts. In addition, it shall strictly adhere to the provisions of the policies and pay the premiums in a timely fashion. | ||
16.3.2. | The Tenant undertakes that the policy that it takes out under subsection 16.1.3 above shall include an explicit clause, pursuant to which the insurer expressly waives its right of subrogation against the Landlord. Said waiver of subrogation rights shall not apply in favor of a person who causes damage out of malicious intent. | ||
In addition, the policy taken out in accordance with subsection 16.1.3 above shall contain an explicit clause that provides as follows: | |||
“The insurer declares, undertakes and confirms that its obligations toward the beneficiaries under this contract shall be toward all of the beneficiaries together and each beneficiary separately. The insurer shall be obligated to indemnify and/or to compensate, as applicable, the asset owner in the event a qualifying event occurs that is the result of the fault, negligence, omission and/or even malicious intent of the Tenant.” | |||
16.3.3. | The insurance policies shall include a provision that the cancellation and/or modification thereof in connection with the Leased Premises and/or non-renewal of the policies shall be contingent upon a written notice provided to the Landlord by the insurer at least fourteen (14) days prior to canceling, renewing or modifying the insurance policies. | ||
16.3.4. | As a condition for receiving possession of the Leased Premises, the Tenant shall provide the Landlord confirmation from the insurance company that the Tenant has been issued the policies that it was required to take out in accordance with Section 16.1 above. In addition, the Tenant shall provide the Landlord, upon prior written request each year, the insurance company’s confirmation for the new insurance year, of coverage terms that are not inferior to those of the previous year. | ||
16.3.5. | The Tenant undertakes to use the payments made by the insurance company under the policies exclusively for the purpose of repairing the damages subject of the policies, which were sustained by the Leased Premises. Nothing in the foregoing restricts and/or derogates from the Landlord’s right to exercise its rights under the policies. |
16.4. | The Landlord declares that it shall not have any argument and/or demand and/or claim against the Tenant and/or anyone on its behalf regarding any damage, on account of which it is entitled to compensation under any |
-16-
insurance that the Landlord had taken out. The Landlord hereby releases the Tenant from any liability for the abovementioned damage. | |||
16.5. | The above insurance policies that are taken out by the Tenant shall neither restrict nor derogate, in any manner whatsoever, from the Tenant’s obligations under this Agreement, nor shall they release the Tenant from its obligation to compensate the Landlord or any other person for any damage for which the Tenant is liable under this Agreement and/or under law. |
17. | LICENSING AND LICENSES |
17.1. | The Tenant declares that it is familiar with the terms required for receiving any license necessary for operating its business in the Leased Premises, should any permit be necessary. The Tenant further undertakes to obtain said license personally and at its expense. The Tenant declares that the Landlord shall not be responsible thereto for obtaining any license, as stated above, for the purpose of operating the Tenant’s business. | ||
17.2. | Should an authorized authority condition the license, under which the Tenant would be able to operate its business in the Leased Premises, upon the performance of modifications to the Leased Premises, the Tenant undertakes to obtain the Landlord’s advance written consent to perform any necessary changes, and the Landlord shall not withhold said consent other than on reasonable grounds. |
18. | COMPLETIONS, ADDITIONS AND MODIFICATIONS – THE TENANT’S WORK |
18.1. | It is hereby clarified that the Tenant shall not be permitted to perform changes or additional work to the Leased Premises unless it has received the Landlord’s advance written consent to do so. It is agreed that the Landlord shall not withhold its consent to the Tenant’s request to perform modifications to the Leased Premises without reasonable grounds. In any case, any modifications that the Tenant makes to the Leased Premises shall be performed at the Tenant’s expense and on its sole responsibility. This is provided that this work is performed in accordance with the law or a building permit, insofar as any such permit is required. Said work may also be performed provided that the Building’s systems, foundation, exterior walls or façade are not disturbed. | ||
18.2. | Should the Tenant wish to perform any additions, completions or modifications to the Leased Premises or any other work in addition to that included in the specifications and the Working Drawings (hereinafter: “Modifications and Additions”), the Tenant may only perform said work, until it receives possession of the Leased Premises, by means of the Landlord and/or a contractor on its behalf, at the Landlord’s discretion and in accordance with its decision. |
-17-
It is stipulated and agreed that any additions, modifications, completions and work whatsoever that the Tenant desires to perform to the Leased Premises after receiving possession thereof, shall be carried out by the Tenant subject to the provisions of this Agreement and in adherence to the instructions given by the Landlord and/or the management company in this regard. Said instructions shall obligate the Tenant and the remaining users of the Building areas, as if these instructions originally comprised part of the provisions of this Agreement. These instructions include instructions regarding insurance, work hours, safety, entry and exit paths to the property and cleaning procedure, and so forth. | |||
In particular, it is emphasized that the Tenant undertakes that the work that shall be performed by the Tenant or anyone on its behalf, shall be performed under its strict professional supervision. The Tenant shall ensure that the work shall not harm and/or disturb the work and/or the ordinary use of the Building by other tenants or owners of areas within the Building. | |||
18.3. | The Landlord shall be willing, but not obligated, to perform for the Tenant the abovementioned Modifications and Additions prior to delivering possession of the Leased Premises to the Tenant, based on the Tenant’s written order. For performance of the above work, the Tenant shall submit to the Landlord detailed working drawings that include all of the modifications and additions that it wishes to perform at the Leased Premises, as well as a xxxx of quantities describing the scope of work. | ||
18.4. | After the parties have agreed (insofar as they agree) on the price of the Modifications and Additions, the procedure for payment and the period of performance of the work, the Landlord will then perform said work for the Tenant. Should the Landlord believe that the Modifications and Additions that have been ordered by Tenant, or the scope thereof, requires postponing the Date of Delivery of Possession of the Leased Premises, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant advance notice thereof. In this instance, a new date of delivery of possession will be determined accordingly. | ||
18.5. | The Tenant undertakes not to perform, nor to permit or to consent to the performance of any modifications to the exterior of the Building, the Building’s foundation, the Building’s primary systems and the exterior walls of the property.

The Landlord may further seek any other legal relief against the violation, including by means of a mandatory injunction to restore the situation to its original state. | ||

19.1. | The Tenant undertakes to maintain the Leased Premises in good and sound order, to avoid damaging the Leased Premises and to make immediate repairs, personally and at its expense (insofar as said repair is not the responsibility of the management company) of any defect, damage or malfunction caused by the Tenant and/or by anyone on its behalf and/or by its visitors, clients, employees and/or any other person on its behalf. The Tenant will perform the repairs in such a manner that the Leased Premises are restored to the state they were in prior to the damage, defect or malfunction. | ||
19.2. | Should the Tenant fail to make the repairs in accordance with Section 19.1 above, the Landlord shall be permitted, but not obligated, after providing the Tenant 14 (fourteen) days’ prior written warning, to make any repair and to do take any action it deems fit for the purpose of repairing the damage and/or restoring the Leased Premises to an appropriate level and standard, as stated above, and/or to restore the situation to its original state, at the Tenant’s expense. The Tenant shall pay, immediately upon the Landlord’s first demand and without any delay, any amount that was expended by the Landlord for the purpose of carrying out the abovementioned repairs. The bills presented by the Landlord shall constitute prima facie evidence of the correctness thereof. The Landlord and/or anyone on its behalf shall be entitled to enter the Leased Premises for the purpose of exercising the Landlord’s right under this Section, after providing at least seven days’ advance notice thereof and in coordination with the Tenant. | ||
19.3. | The Tenant undertakes not to do anything and/or to permit others to do anything to the Leased Premises or any part thereof or in connection therewith that may constitute a hazard or disturbance, or that may cause damage or inconvenience to the Landlord and/or to the other owners and/or tenants in the Building. The Tenant shall be responsible for the consequences of violations of these obligations. | ||
19.4. | The Tenant undertakes not to hang signs and/or notices on the façade of the Leased Premises or on an exterior wall of the Leased Premises and/or in any interior area of the Building, without receiving the advance written consent of the Landlord and/or the management company.

Upon completion of the Lease Period or upon lawful termination of this Agreement, a final accounting will take place between the Landlord and the Tenant, with respect to the Tenant’s debts to the Landlord.

Said confirmations shall show that as of the actual date of vacating, the Tenant has paid all of the payments, including the principal amount and/or interest and/or linkage differentials and/or fines and/or any other debt relating to the Lease Period. | ||
