Within ninety (90) days following receipt of the bill for real estate taxes for the applicable year, Landlord shall furnish the Tenant with a copy of the same and there shall be an adjustment between the Landlord and Tenant with payment to or a refund by Landlord, as the case may be, so that the amount charged to the Tenant does not exceed Xxxxxx’s proportionate share of the real estate taxes actually paid.

Billings for additional rental for Common Area Expenses are due within ten (10) days following receipt of the invoice. Late payments are subject to late charges as included in Section 1.7.
The Landlord shall in good faith estimate the “Common area expenses” (hereafter defined) to be incurred by the Landlord during each year of the Lease and a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) thereof shall be paid by the Tenant each month of the term of this Lease.
“Common area expenses” shall mean any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Landlord in connection with common areas within the Building and Development, including, but not limited to, snow removal, landscaping, exterior window washing, parking lot, roof, exterior wall, foundation, sidewalk repair and maintenance, cleaning, fire and extended coverage insurance and liability insurance against casualties in such Common Areas, management fees, all other repairs and maintenance, depreciation of any equipment used in maintaining the Common Area and other expenses usually and customarily charged to tenants as Common Area expenses in like industrial developments.

3
Upon the termination of the Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, the Tenant shall pay Tenant’s proportionate share based upon the actual amount of Common area expenses, if known, or if not known, based on an estimate of 110% of the previous year’s actual Common area expenses prorated for any partial calendar year. This amount will be billed and due prior to the last day of occupancy. If, when billed, the Tenant’s proportionate share has been estimated, the Landlord shall, upon receipt of the bill for Common area expenses for the applicable year compute the actual amount payable by the Tenant and either refund overpayment or bill the Tenant for underpayment.

This Lease Agreement and the rights of Tenant pursuant hereto shall, at all times, be subject and subordinate only to the lien of a First Mortgage at any time placed on the Building or Premises. Tenant shall, upon the written request of any First Mortgagee execute such instruments or documents as may be reasonably required at any time and from time to time to subordinate the rights and interest of Tenant herein to the lien of any such First Mortgage. At the election of the First Mortgagee, this Lease shall not be terminated or affected by any proceedings instituted to foreclose the lien of any First Mortgage, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding that any such First Mortgagee or any person claiming by, through or under any such First Mortgagee shall succeed to the title of Landlord by foreclosure or Deed in lieu of foreclosure, and in any such event, Tenant agrees to attorn to any such First Mortgagee or its successors and assigns.
Should any First Mortgage be foreclosed, or in the event that the title of Landlord shall be conveyed to any such First Mortgagee by Deed in lieu of foreclosure, no such First Mortgagee, purchaser at such foreclosure sale or their successors or assigns shall be:
a) liable for any act or omission of any prior Landlord;
b) subject to any off-set or defense which Tenant may have against any prior Landlord; and
c) bound by a prepayment of rent or other payments made to Landlord by Tenant for more than the current month.
7.2 Estoppel Certificate
Xxxxxx agrees that upon not less than fifteen (15) days prior notice from Landlord, Xxxxxx will deliver to Landlord or to such other person as Landlord shall designate in such notice, a statement in writing in form satisfactory to Landlord certifying among other matters:
a) that the Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified and identifying such modifications);
b) that Tenant is in possession of the Premises and is paying all rental payments required by this Lease;
16
c) that no more than one month’s rent (excluding the Security Deposit, if any) has been paid in advance;
d) that all work required to be performed by Landlord under this Lease has been completed;
e) the Commencement Date and expiration date of this Lease; and
f) that insofar as Tenant knows, Landlord is not in default under this Lease (or, if Tenant has knowledge of any default, a statement of the nature thereof).
7.3 Modifications Required by Mortgagee
If any Mortgagee requires a modification or modifications of this Lease and such modification or modifications will not result in any increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way substantially alter the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall, upon Xxxxxxxx’s request, execute the appropriate instrument or instruments effecting such modification or modifications.
7.4 Landlord’s Title
Xxxxxxxx’s title is and always shall be paramount to the title of Tenant. Nothing herein contained shall empower Tenant to do any act which can, shall or may encumber the title of Landlord.
Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s liens to be filed against the Premises or the Building by reason of services or materials supplied or claimed to have been supplied in connection with any work done in the Premises at the direction of Tenant. If any such mechanic’s lien shall at any time be filed, Tenant shall cause the same to be discharged of record or sufficient bond posted over same within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to discharge or post sufficient bond over such mechanic’s lien within such period, then, in addition to any other right or remedy, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the lien either before or after investigating it.
ARTICLE 8. EMINENT DOMAIN & DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES
8.1 Eminent Domain
If the entire Building or if any substantial part of the Premises shall be taken or condemned by any authority for any public use or purpose, the term of this Lease shall end upon, and not before, the date when the possession of the part so taken shall be required for such use or purpose and without apportionment of the condemnation
17
award. The Tenant shall have no right to share in such award or seek an award for loss of its leasehold interest, the right of Tenant, if any, in and to such award being hereby assigned to Landlord. All rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination.
8.2 Total or Partial Destruction
In the event that Premises or other parts of the Building shall be destroyed or so damaged by fire, explosion, windstorm or other casualty (“Casualty”) so as to be:
a) rendered untenantable, Landlord may, at its election, either:
i) terminate this Lease as of the date of Casualty by written notice thereof to Tenant within sixty (60) days following the date of Casualty, in which event all rent shall be apportioned on a per diem basis and paid by Tenant to the date of Casualty; or
ii) proceed with all due diligence to repair, restore or rehabilitate the Premises or the Building, as the case may be, to the condition existing immediately prior to Casualty (“Restoration Work”) and to complete within 150 days of the date of the Casualty, in which event this Lease shall not terminate, and rent shall equitably xxxxx on a per diem basis during the period of Restoration Work to the extent that Tenant is denied use of the Premises by reasons of Restoration Work;
Landlord shall proceed with all due diligence to perform or cause Restoration Work to be performed and completed within (90) days of the date of the Casualty, in which event rent shall xxxxx in proportion to the non-usability of the Premises during the period of Restoration Work;
b) partially damaged but not rendered untenantable, Landlord shall proceed with all due diligence to perform or cause Restoration Work to be performed and complete within 150 days of the date of the Casualty, in which event rent shall xxxxx in proportion to the non-usability of the Premises during the period of Restoration Work;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if Casualty shall occur at any time during the last year of the term of this Lease, Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, at its election, to terminate this Lease as of the date of Casualty, by written notice thereof to the other within thirty (30) days following the date of Casualty.
18
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord be:
a) responsible for any loss or damage incurred by Tenant or any other person, firm or corporation by reason of goods, wares, merchandise, furniture, fixtures and equipment situated within Premises and damaged by reason of Casualty;
b) liable or responsible for any other damage incurred by Tenant by reason of Casualty; or
c) for any delays in Restoration Work caused by labor controversies, riots, acts of God, national emergencies, acts of a public enemy, governmental laws or regulations, inability to procure materials or labor, or both, or any other cause beyond the control of Landlord.
ARTICLE 9. SURRENDER OF PREMISES
9.1 Condition of Premises
Tenant shall yield to Landlord possession of the Premises in as good condition as when the Tenant took possession, subject to ordinary wear and tear, in accordance with the provision of this Lease. If the Tenant fails to yield the Premises in as good condition as when the Tenant took possession, normal wear and tear excepted, the Landlord may restore the Premises to such condition, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof.
9.2 Alterations of Premises
Alterations of the Premises remain the property of the Landlord in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. In the event Landlord so directs in writing prior or within thirty (30) days after termination of this Lease, Tenant shall promptly remove Tenant’s alterations (but not alterations made by Landlord) and repair any damage to the Premises. If Tenant fails to repair such damage, the Landlord may restore the Premises, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof.
9.3 Tenant’s Trade Fixtures
Any trade fixtures which are attached to the Premises, with Landlord’s prior written consent, may be removed by Xxxxxx provided that Premises are restored by Tenant to the condition prior to attachment. If the Tenant fails to restore such damage, the Landlord may restore the Premises, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof.
9.4 Property Presumed Abandoned
All Tenant’s trade fixtures and personal property not removed from the premises upon termination shall be conclusively presumed to have been abandoned by the Tenant, and title thereto shall pass to Landlord as by a bill of sale. The Tenant shall pay for the cost of removal of such abandoned items.
19
9.5 Surrender of Keys
Tenant shall surrender all keys to Premises and Building and all data relative to combination locks and security systems in Premises.
9.6 Notification of Surrender
Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the last day of the term of this Lease, the Tenant shall notify Landlord of the last day of occupancy of the Premises in writing. On the last day of occupancy, Landlord and Tenant shall review the physical condition of the Premises for the purpose of assessing needed repairs to the Premises.
9.7 Holdover by Tenant
Tenant will, at the termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise, yield up immediate possession to Landlord. If Tenant retains possession of the Premises or any part thereof after such termination, then Landlord may, at its option at any time thereafter, serve written notice upon Tenant that such holdover constitutes any one of:
a) renewal of the Lease for one year at the then prevailing current rental rate; or
b) creation of a month-to-month tenancy upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease; or
c) creation of a tenancy at sufferance in any case upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the monthly rental (or daily rental under (c)) shall, in addition to all other sums which are to be paid by Tenant hereunder, be equal to double the rental being paid monthly to Landlord under this Lease immediately prior to such termination (prorated in the case of (c) on the basis of a 360-day year for each day Tenant remains in possession). If no such notice is served, then a tenancy at sufferance shall be deemed to be created at the rent in the preceding sentence. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages sustained by Landlord resulting from retention of possession by Xxxxxx, including all loss or damage sustained or incurred by Landlord by reason of any new lease to or the loss of any proposed subsequent tenant for any portion of the Premises. The provisions of the paragraph shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of any right of reentry; nor shall receipt of any rent or any other act in apparent affirmance of the tenancy operate as a waiver of the right to terminate this Lease for a breach of any of the terms, covenants or obligations therein on Tenant’s part to be performed.
20
ARTICLE 10. LANDLORD’S REMEDIES
All rights and remedies of Landlord herein enumerated shall be cumulative, and none shall exclude any other right or remedy allowed by law.
10.1 If any voluntary or involuntary petition or similar pleading under any section or sections of any bankruptcy act shall be filed by or against Tenant, or any voluntary or involuntary proceedings in any court shall be instituted to declare Tenant insolvent or unable to pay Xxxxxx’s debts, or Tenant makes an assignment for the benefits of its creditors, or a trustee or receiver is appointed for Tenant or for the major part of Tenant’s property, then in such event, Landlord may, if Landlord so elects and with or without notice of such election and with or without entry or other action by Landlord, forthwith terminate this Lease and, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Landlord shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to recover damages in an amount equal to the then present value of the rent specified in Article l of this Lease for the residue of the stated term hereof.
10.2 If Tenant defaults in the prompt payment of rent and such default shall continue for five (5) or more days after the same be due and payable or in the performance or observance of any other provisions of this Lease and such other default shall continue for ten (10) or more days after notice thereof shall have been given to Tenant, or if the leasehold interest of Tenant be levied upon under execution or attached by process of law, or if Tenant abandons the leased Premises, then and in any such event, Landlord, if it so elects with or without notice or demand forthwith, or at any time thereafter while such default continues, either may terminate Tenant’s right to possession without terminating this Lease or may terminate this Lease.
10.3 Upon termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon any termination of the Tenant’s right to possession without termination of this Lease, the Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the leased Premises immediately and deliver possession thereof to the Landlord, and hereby grants to the Landlord full and free license to enter into and upon the leased Premises in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the leased Premises and to expel or remove the Tenant and any others who may be occupying or within the leased Premises and to remove any and all property therefrom, using such force as may be necessary without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction, forcible entry or detainer, or conversion of property, and without relinquishing the Landlord’s rights to rent or any other right given to the Landlord hereunder or by operation of law. The Tenant expressly waives the service of any demand for the payment of rent or for possession and the service of any notice of the Landlord’s election to terminate this Lease or to
21
reenter the Premises, including any and every form of demand and notice prescribed by any statute or other law, and agrees that the simple breach of any covenant or provisions of this Lease by the Tenant shall, of itself, without the service of any notice or demand whatsoever, constitute a forcible detainer by the Tenant of the demised Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord after such termination and reentry, at Landlord’s option:
a) at the end of each month of the demised term, the difference, if any, between the rent actually received by Xxxxxxxx from said demised Premises during such month and the rent agreed to be paid by the terms of this Lease during such month, together with the reasonable expenses of re-letting and altering the improvements on such demised Premises, together with reasonable commissions and attorney’s fees; or
b) damages in an amount equal to the then present value of the rent specified in this Lease, as adjusted for taxes and expenses, for the residue of the stated term hereof, less the fair rental value of the Premises for the residue of the stated term.
10.4 If Tenant abandons the Premises or otherwise entitles Landlord to so elect and Landlord elects to terminate the Tenant’s right to possession only without terminating the Lease, the Landlord may, at the Landlord’s option, enter into the leased Premises, remove the Tenant’s signs and other evidences of tenancy and take and hold possession thereof as in Paragraph 10.3 of this Article, provided, without such entry and possession terminating the Lease or releasing the Tenant in whole or in part from the Tenant’s obligation to pay the rent hereunder for the full term, and in any such case the Tenant shall pay forthwith to the Landlord a sum equal to the entire amount of the rent specified in Article l of this Lease for the residue of the stated term, plus any other sums then due hereunder. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of this Lease, the Landlord may, but need not, re-let the leased Premises or any part thereof for the account of the Tenant to any person, firm or corporation other than the Tenant for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as the Landlord in the Landlord’s sole discretion shall determine, and the Landlord shall not be required to accept any tenant offered by the Tenant or to observe any instructions given by the Tenant about such re-letting. In any such case, the Landlord may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the leased Premises and redecorate the same to the extent deemed by the Landlord necessary or desirable and the Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the reasonable cost thereof, together with the Landlord’s expenses of the re-letting including, without limitation, any reasonable broker’s commission incurred by the Landlord. If the consideration collected by the Landlord upon any such re-letting for the Tenant’s account is not sufficient to pay the full amount of unpaid rent reserved in this Lease, together with the costs of repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and the Landlord’s expenses, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the amount of each deficiency.
22
10.5 If Tenant violates any of the terms and provisions of this Lease or defaults in any of its obligations hereunder other than the payment of any sum payable hereunder, whether the same be rent or otherwise, violation may be restrained or such obligation enforced by injunction, which remedy shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
