Landlord's actions be construed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any of
Landlords rights or remedies. In this event, the rents received on any such
re-letting shall be applied first to the expenses of re-letting and collecting
including, without limitation, all repossession costs, attorney's fees, court
costs, broker's commissions, alteration costs, and expenses of preparing the
Premises for re-letting, and thereafter for payment of the rent and any other
amounts payable to Tenant to Landlord. If the sum realized shall not be
sufficient to pay such rent and other charges, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord
within five (5) days after demand any such deficiency as it accrues.
26.3 In the event Landlord elects to re-enter or take possession of the
Premises, Tenant agrees to quit and peaceably surrender the Premises to
Landlord, and Landlord may enter upon and re-enter the Premises and possess and
repossess itself thereof, by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or
otherwise, and may dispossess and remove Tenant and may have, hold, and enjoy
the Premises and the right to receive all rental income of and from the same.
No such re-entry and taking of possession by Landlord shall be construed as an
election on Landlord's part to terminate or surrender this Lease unless
Landlord gives notice to Tenant specifically terminating the Lease, unless a
written notice of such intention is served on Tenant, notwithstanding the
service of Demand for the Payment of Rent and Possession, and Landlord and
Tenant expressly agree that the service of posting of such demand will not
constitute an election on the part of the Landlord to terminate this Lease.
26.4 If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with the
provisions herein, Landlord shall be entitled to recover as damages attorneys'
fees and costs, the cost of removing Tenant, all costs of refurbishing and
repairing the Premises for re-letting, all sums due Landlord by Tenant.
LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE TENANT'S DEFAULT.
27.1 If Tenant shall default in the performance of any covenant or
provision of this Lease to be performed on Tenant's part, Landlord may, after
fifteen (15) days written notice to Tenant, or without notice if in Landlord's
option an emergency exists, perform the same for the account and at the expense
of Tenant. If Landlord shall incur any expense, including reasonable attorney's
fees, in instituting, prosecuting, or defending any action of Tenant, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for the amount of such expense with interest at the
rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of Landlord's advance
or advances therefore. Should Tenant, pursuant to this Lease, become obligated
to reimburse or otherwise pay Landlord one or more sums of money pursuant to
this Article 27, the amount thereof
8
9
shall by paid by Tenant to Landlord within two (2) days of Landlord's written
demand thereof, and if Tenant fails to make such payment, such failure shall be
deemed an event of default as set forth is Article 25 hereof. The provisions
hereof shall survive the termination of this Lease. The provisions hereof shall
neither impose a duty on Landlord nor excuse any failure on Tenant's part to
perform or observe any covenant or condition in this Lease contained on
Tenant's part to be performed or observed.
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE.
28.1 Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign,
license, transfer, mortgage or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part
of Tenant's interest in this Lease or in the Premises, shall not sell or
otherwise transfer more than 50% or the value of the assets of Tenant, and
shall not sublet or license all or any part of the Premises, without the prior
written consent of Landlord such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld in
each instance, and any attempted assignment, sale, transfer, mortgage,
encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be wholly void. Without in
any way limiting Landlord's right to refuse to give consent for any other
reason or reasons, Landlord reserves the right to refuse to give such consent
if in Landlord's reasonable discretion and opinion the quality of business
operation of the Building is or may be in any way adversely affected during the
term of the Lease.
28.2 No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Landlord,
shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent
and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant
hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not
be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any subletting, assignment, or other
transfer. Consent to one assignment, subletting or other transfer shall not be
deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting or other
transfer.
SUBORDINATION, ESTOPPEL LETTER AND ATTORNMENT.
29.1 This Lease is subject and subordinate to all first mortgages or
first deeds of trust which now or hereafter may affect the Premises or the
building, and Tenant shall execute and deliver upon demand of Landlord any and
all instruments subordinating this Lease, in the manner requested by Landlord,
to any new or existing mortgage or deed of trust. In the event that Tenant's
interest is subordinated, said mortgagee shall agree that it shall not disturb
Tenant's possession, provided that Tenant is not in default under the terms and
condition of this Lease. Further, Tenant shall at any time and from time to
time, upon not less than five (5) days' prior written notice from Landlord,
execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying
that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified,
stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so
modified, is in full force and effect) and the dates to which rent and other
charges are paid in advance, in any, and acknowledging that there are not, to
Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of the Landlord hereunder,
or specifying such defaults, if any are claimed, and certifying as to such
other matters Landlord may reasonably request.
29.2 In the event that Landlord or its principal sells, conveys,
transfers or grants the Building or the Premises to any person, firm,
corporation, company, or entity during the term hereby demised, Tenant agrees
to attorn to such new owner, and Landlord and its principal shall be released
from performance hereunder.
QUIET ENJOYMENT.
30.1 So long as the Tenant shall observe and perform the covenants and
agreements binding on it hereunder, the Tenant shall, at all times during the
term herein granted, peacefully and quietly have and enjoy possession of the
Premises without any encumbrance or hindrance by, from, or through Landlord.
30.2 To the best of Landlord's knowledge, Suites 200 and 310 (totaling
7,992 rsf) meet building codes. Tenant warrants that the remaining Premises
(Suites 210 and 100 totaling 19,283 rsf) meet building codes. The Landlord
shall not require the Tenant to provide additional funds to meet any building
code or federal requirements other than those provided for in Paragraph 6.1.
HOLDING OVER.
31.1 Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant, if
Tenant retains possession of the Premises or any part thereof after the
termination of the term, such holding over shall be deemed to be tenancy from
month-to-month at a monthly rental equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of
the monthly installment of Base Rent due under the terms of the Lease from the
month next preceding the commencement of the holdover period, and Tenant shall
remain liable for all other payments provided for hereunder, and such holding
over shall be subject to all of the other terms and conditions of the Lease. In
addition to rent, Tenant agrees to pay the Landlord for all damages,
9
10
consequential as well as direct, sustained by Landlord resulting or arising
from tenant's possession. No such holding over shall be deemed to constitute a
renewal or extension of the term of the Lease.
