EXHIBIT E
Right of Offer
(a) Effective at commencement of this Second Amendment and during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right of offer to lease any premises located in the Building which becomes vacant or Landlord determines will become vacant (the “Additional Premises”). Prior to leasing any Additional Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its intent to lease the Additional Premises (a “Landlord Notice”). Tenant shall have fifteen (15) days after Landlord has given written notice in which to provide Landlord with written notice (an “Election Notice”) of its election to exercise its right to lease all of the Additional Premises (Tenant shall not have the right to elect to lease part of the Additional Premises). Tenant shall pay Base Rent for the Additional Premises at the “Market Rate” (as defined below). All of the other terms and conditions pertaining to the lease of the Additional Premises shall be agreed to by Landlord and Tenant within five (5) days after Landlord receives Tenant’s written notice. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on such terms and conditions within the five (5) day period, Tenant’s right to lease the Additional Premises shall automatically expire and Tenant shall have no further right to lease the Additional Premises. All of the terms and conditions for the lease of the Additional Premises shall be satisfactory to Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion. If Tenant does not give Landlord written notice of its election to lease such Additional Premises within fifteen (15) days after Landlord gives Tenant its written notice of the availability of the Additional Premises, Landlord shall thereafter be free to lease such Additional Premises to a third party on any terms and conditions that Landlord shall select, with no further obligation to Tenant. In the event that Landlord offers any space to Tenant pursuant to this right of offer and Tenant does not lease the space, the space so offered shall no longer be subject to this right of offer and thereafter Landlord shall not be obligated to offer said space to Tenant. If Landlord unintentionally fails to provide a Landlord Notice to Tenant, Tenant’s sole remedy for such failure shall be to notify Landlord of the failure and to request that it be provided a Landlord Notice, and, in this event, if the Additional Premises is still available for lease (i.e., it has not been leased by Landlord to a another tenant), Landlord shall provide the Landlord Notice to Tenant. Under no circumstances shall Landlord have any legal liability to Tenant (for damages or otherwise) due to Landlord’s unintentional failure to provide a Landlord Notice to Tenant. Landlord shall not be obligated to provide Tenant with notice pursuant to this section, and Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the right of offer granted in this section, at any time that Tenant has subleased all or any portion of the Premises or at any time Tenant is in default as defined in the Lease. This right of offer shall be subject to (i) the prior and existing rights of the other tenants in the Project to lease the Additional Premises and (ii) Landlord’s right, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to elect to renew or extend the lease of any tenant occupying the Additional Premises, whether or not such tenant has the legal right or option to renew or extend its lease.
(b) The term “Market Rate” shall mean the annual amount per rentable square foot that a willing, comparable tenant would pay and a willing, comparable landlord of a similar industrial building would accept at arm’s length for similar space, giving appropriate consideration to the following matters: (i) annual rental rates per rentable square foot; (ii) the
type of escalation clauses (including, but without limitation, operating expense, real estate taxes, and CPI) and the extent of liability under the escalation clauses (i.e., whether determined on a “net lease” basis or by increases over a particular base year or base dollar amount); (iii) rent abatement provisions reflecting free rent and/or no rent during the lease term; (iv) length of lease term (to be determined by Landlord in accordance with (a) above, in Landlord’s sole discretion); (v) size and location of premises being leased; (vi) the amount of any tenant improvement allowance; and (vii) other generally applicable terms and conditions of tenancy for similar space.
(c) If Tenant exercises the Right of Offer, Landlord shall determine the Market Rate by using its good faith judgment. Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice of such amount within five (5) days after Tenant delivers its Election Notice to Landlord. Tenant shall have fifteen (15) days (“Tenant’s Review Period”) after receipt of Landlord’s notice of the rental rate within which to accept such rental. In the event Tenant fails to accept in writing such rental proposal by Landlord, then such proposal shall be deemed rejected, and Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon such Market Rate, using their best good faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within seven (7) days following Tenant’s Review Period (“Outside Agreement Date”), then each party shall place in a separate sealed envelope their final proposal as to the Market Rate, and such determination shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with subsections (i) through (v) below.
(ii) Landlord and Tenant shall meet with each other within three (3) business days after the Outside Agreement Date and exchange their sealed envelopes and then open such envelopes in each other’s presence. If Landlord and Tenant do not mutually agree upon the Market Rate within one (1) business day of the exchange and opening of envelopes, then, within three (3) business days of the exchange and opening of envelopes, Landlord and Tenant shall agree upon and jointly appoint a single arbitrator who shall by profession be a real estate broker or agent who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial buildings similar to the Premises in the geographical area of the Premises. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall consult with such broker or agent as to his or her opinion as to the Market Rate prior to the appointment. The determination of the arbitrator shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Market Rate for the Additional Premises is the closest to the actual Market Rate for the Additional Premises as determined by the arbitrator, taking into account the requirements for determining Market Rate set forth herein. In addition, Landlord or Tenant may submit to the arbitrator with a copy to the other party within three (3) business days after the appointment of the arbitrator any market data and additional information such party deems relevant to the determination of the Market Rate (“RR Data”), and the other party may submit a reply in writing within two (2) business days after receipt of such RR Data.
(ii) The arbitrator shall, within three (3) business days of his or her appointment, reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Market Rate and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of such determination.
(iii) The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
(iv) If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon and appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the arbitrator shall be made by the presiding judge of the Superior Court for the County in which the Premises is located, or, if he or she refuses to act, by any judge having jurisdiction over the parties.
(v) The cost of the arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.
(d) The Additional Premises shall be leased to Tenant pursuant to a new and separate lease agreement (the “New Lease”) to be agreed to by Landlord and Tenant. The Additional Premises shall not be added to the Premises leased pursuant to the Lease. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no obligation to include in the New Lease any term or condition contained in this Lease. By way of example and not limitation, Landlord shall have no obligation to agree to a coterminous term for the New Lease and this Lease or to provide Tenant with any options to extend the term of the New Lease. Except for the Market Rate which shall be decided in accordance with (b) above, all of the terms and conditions of the New Lease shall be satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant in each of their sole and absolute discretion’s. The consequence of Landlord and Tenant not being able to agree on the terms and conditions of the New Lease shall be that Landlord shall have no further obligation to lease the Additional Premises to Tenant and Tenant shall have no further obligation to lease the Additional Premises from Landlord pursuant to this section.
