4. RENTAL ESCALATION FOR INCREASES IN EXPENSES
-------------------------------------------
In the event the Operating Expenses of the Building during any
calendar year commencing January 1, 2001 and thereafter exceed the amount of
"Base Operating Expenses," defined to be the amount of Operating Expenses
actually incurred by Lessor in calendar year 2000, Lessee shall pay to Lessor,
as additional rent, Lessee's proportionate share (allocable only to the 8th
Floor Space, not the 4th Floor Space) of the portion of the Operating Expenses
that exceeds the amount of the Base Operating Expenses. The proportionate share
to be so paid by Lessee shall be the percentage which the total square feet of
the 8th Floor Space bears to the total square feet of all office and retail
space in the Building, which is 0.99%, and the amount of said proportionate
share to be paid by Lessee shall be the same proportion as the number of days in
such calendar year the 8th Floor Space was leased by Lessee bears to three
hundred sixty (360). The term "Operating Expenses" is defined as meaning (i) any
and all expenses, charges and fees incurred in connection with managing,
operating, maintaining, servicing, insuring and repairing the Building and
related exterior appurtenances, and (ii) Real Estate Taxes and impositions,
general and special, of whatever kind or description levied against the Building
or land. The term "Real Estate Taxes" for any calendar year is hereby defined to
mean the total amount of all taxes and assessments, general and special,
ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, now or hereafter assessed,
levied or imposed upon the Building and the land on which the Building is
situated ("xxx Xxxx") for such year, together with any tax in the nature of a
real estate tax, and ad valorem tax on rent or any tax on income if imposed in
lieu of or in addition to real estate taxes and assessments, and any taxes and
assessments which may hereafter be substituted for Real Estate Taxes and
together with the amount of any fees incurred in the setting of the amount of
these taxes. In the event that the method currently used for the computation of
the assessed market value of the Building and/or the Land is discontinued or
revised, the determination of the increases in Real Estate Taxes under this
Section 4 shall thereafter be made according to a formula and procedure which
most nearly approximates the method of determination hereinabove set forth. In
the event that any business, rent, or other taxes which are now or hereafter
levied upon Lessee's use or occupancy of the 8th Floor Space, on Lessee's
leasehold improvements therein, on Lessee's business at the 8th Floor Space or
on Lessor by virtue of Lessee's occupancy of the 8th Floor Space, are enacted,
changed or altered so that any such taxes are levied against Lessor or in the
event that the mode of collection of such taxes is changed so that Lessor is
responsible for collection or payment of such taxes, any and all such taxes
shall be deemed to be a part of the increase in Real Estate Taxes and Lessee
shall pay Lessor Lessee's proportionate share of the full amount of such taxes.
Operating Expenses shall not include the Operating Costs listed in the next
paragraph below, nor shall Operating Expenses include the cost of capital
improvements (unless such improvements are reasonably expected to reduce the
expenses of the Building or are made to comply with governmental requirements
imposed after the date of this Addendum, in which event the cost of any such
improvement amortized over the life of the improvement will be included in
Operating Expenses), painting or decoration other than public areas, interest
and amortization of mortgages, depreciation of the Building, or compensation
paid to officers or executives of the Lessor or its Management Agent (as defined
in Section 29 of the Lease).
In the event the Operating Costs of the Building during any calendar
year commencing January 1, 2001 and thereafter exceed the amount of "Base
Operating Costs," defined to be the amount of Operating Costs actually
incurred by Lessor in calendar year 2000, Lessee shall pay
-3-
to Lessor, as additional rent, Lessee's proportionate share (allocable only to
the 8th Floor Space, not the 4th Floor Space) of the portion of the Operating
Costs that exceeds the amount of the Base Operating Costs. The term "Operating
Costs" is defined as meaning the costs of the cleaning contract and cleaning
supplies, and electricity for the Building. The proportionate share to be so
paid by Lessee shall be the percentage which the total square feet of the 8th
Floor Space bears to the total square feet of all office space in the Building,
which is 1.07% and the amount of said proportionate share to be paid by Lessee
shall be the same proportion as the number of days in the calendar year the 8th
Floor Space was leased by Lessee bears to three hundred sixty (360). In the
event Lessor installs a separate electric meter or meters for the premises
occupied by any other tenant or tenants of the Building, an appropriate
adjustment as reasonably determined by Lessor will be made in the electricity
cost component of Operating Costs for the tenants of the Building not separately
metered.
As soon as practicable after the first day of January, 2001, and as
soon as practicable after each first day of January thereafter during the term
of the Lease, as hereby extended and renewed, Lessor shall submit to Lessee a
statement of Lessor's estimate of the amount by which Operating Expenses and
Operating Costs for the applicable calendar year (as estimated by Lessor) are
expected to exceed the amount of the Base Operating Expenses and the Base
Operating Costs, respectively. Commencing with the first day of the month
immediately following the delivery of such statement. Lessee will pay to Lessor,
as additional rent with Monthly Rent and the 8th Floor Monthly Rent. one-twelfth
(1/12th) of Lessee's proportionate share of such excess of estimated Operating
Expenses and Operating Costs over Base Operating Expenses and Base Operating
Costs, respectively. Lessee shall continue to make said payment monthly
thereafter on the first day of each calendar month until the amount of such
payment is next adjusted after January 1st of the following calendar year for
increases in the amounts of Lessee's proportionate share of Operating Expenses
and/or Operating Costs as provided for herein.
As soon as practicable after the expiration of each applicable
calendar year , a determination shall be made of the Operating Expenses and
Operating Costs for such calendar year and-the amount of the increase (if any)
in the Operating Expenses and Operating Costs for such calendar year over the
amount of the Base Operating Expenses and the Base Operating Costs respectively.
Operating Expenses and Operating Costs for each calendar year shall be those
actually incurred, provided, however, that if the Building was not at least
eighty-five percent (85 %) occupied during the entire calendar year, the
Operating Expenses and Operating Costs shall be adjusted to project the
Operating Expenses and Operating Costs as if the Building were eighty-five
percent (85 %) occupied. Lessor shall submit to Lessee a statement of the
aforesaid determination, including Lessee's aforesaid proportionate share of any
increase.
Within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such statement
(including any statement delivered after the expiration or termination of the
term of the Lease, as hereby extended and renewed) , Lessee shall pay to Lessor
an amount equal to (i) its proportionate share of the increase, if any, in the
actual amount of Operating Expenses and/or Operating Costs for the just expired
calendar year over the Base Operating Expenses and the Base Operating Costs,
respectively, less (ii) the aggregate amount of monthly payments toward
additional rent made by Lessee during such calendar year and attributed to the
estimated increases in Operating Expenses and/or Operating Costs for such
calendar year. If the aggregate amounts of such
-4-
payments toward additional rent for estimated increases in Operating Expenses
and/or Operating Costa paid by Lessee during such calendar year exceeds Lessee's
proportionate share of the actual increases in Operating Expenses and/or
Operating Costs, the excess shall be credited toward payment of the next
installment of Monthly Rent to be paid by Lessee after Lessee receives said
statement of Operating Expenses and Operating Costs from Lessor, or, in the
event the term of the Lease, as hereby extended and renewed, has previously
expired or been terminated, such excess shall be refunded to Lessee within
thirty (30) days after the delivery of such statement, less such portion of such
excess as Lessor shall have retained to cure any default by Lessee under the
Lease, as amended hereby or as subsequently amended.
5. PRE-OCCUPANCY TENANT WORK
-------------------------
Lessee currently occupies the 8th Floor Space on a month-to-month
basis, and it is acknowledged that Lessor has heretofore completed tenant work
within the 8th Floor Space substantially in accordance with the provisions of
Exhibit B of the Lease. Lessee shall accept the 8th Floor Space "as is" upon the
---------
1st day of January 1999, and Lessor shall have no obligation to furnish or
install any items whatsoever of tenant work within the 8th Floor Space. All
tenant work and installations desired by Lessee for its occupancy of the 8th
Floor Space shall be undertaken by Lessee at its cost and expense pursuant to
Section 9 of the Lease.
6. ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT
------------------
Lessor currently holds the sum of Sixty-Three Thousand One Hundred
Twenty-One and 42/.100 Dollars ($63,121.42) as a non-interest bearing cash
security deposit under the Lease. Upon Lessee's execution and delivery of this
Addendum and as a condition to delivery of possession of the 8th Floor Space,
Lessee shall deposit with Lessor the additional sum of Six Thousand Two Hundred
Forty-Five and 34/100ths Dollars ($6,245.34). The resulting sum in the amount of
Sixty-Nine Thousand Three Hundred Sixty-Six and 76/100ths Dollars ($69,366.76)
shall continue to be held by Lessor as a non-interest bearing cash security
deposit under the Lease, as amended hereby, pursuant to and in accordance with
the provisions of Section 6 of the Lease. If Lessor elects to apply all or any
portion of the increased cash deposit to cure Lessee's default, Lessee shall be
obligated to promptly deposit with Lessor cash in an amount sufficient to
restore the cash security deposit to Sixty-Nine Thousand Three Hundred Sixty-Six
and 76/100ths Dollars ($69,366.76).
