Paragraph 36(b) below) for the Premises on or before July 1, 1999. All of the
Improvements to be completed by Lessor including but not limited to the
restrooms, shall meet current ADA code. Lessor represents that the Building of
which the Premises is a part is handicap accessible. All of the Lessor's
Improvements and the Building shall come with a one (1) year warranty to cover
latent defects nonconformity with the plans approved by Lessee and faulty
design. In addition, the air conditioning compressor(s) serving the Premises
shall carry a five (5) year warranty.
(b) Lessor will provide a Certificate of Occupancy to verify
completion of Lessor's
6
Improvements. However, Lessor may be delayed providing a Certificate of
Occupancy as a result of Lessee performing work or pulling permits (or having
its contractors or subcontractors perform work or pull permits) within the
Premises, such work or permits hereinafter referred to as "Lessee's Work". In
the event of such a delay, a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for the Premises
will verify completion of Lessors Improvements. In the event that Lessor cannot
provide a Certificate of Occupancy or a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy as a
result of Lessee's Work, Lessor's architect shall inspect the Premises and issue
a letter ("Architect's Letter) verifying that Lessor has completed Lessor's
Improvements. Notwithstanding any Temporary Certificate of Occupancy or
Architect's Letter, Lessee shall diligently pursue obtaining all approvals
and/or "sign-offs" for Lessee's Work necessary to enable Lessor to obtain a
Certificate of Occupancy for the Premises.
(c) In the event the earliest of the Certificate of
Occupancy, Temporary Certificate of Occupancy or Architect's Letter is issued
for the Premises on a date other than July 1, 1999, Lessee and Lessor agree that
the obligation of Lessee to pay rent to Lessor hereunder shall not commence
until sixty (60) days after the earlier of (i) the date of the Certificate of
Occupancy or Temporary Certificate of Occupancy, or (ii) the date of the
Architect's Letter. Such adjustments shall be verified in writing by both
parties and shall maintain a lease term of one-hundred and twenty-two (122)
months with the first two (2) months being rent-free. Lessee shall have the
right and option to terminate this Lease if a Temporary Certificate of
Occupancy, a Certificate of Occupancy or an Architect's Letter has not been
issued for the Premises by September 1, 1999. Notwithstanding, Lessor's time for
providing a Certificate of Occupancy, Temporary Certificate of Occupancy or
Architect's Letter shall be extended without penalty for delays caused by force
majeure as described in Paragraph 35.
THIRTY-SEVENTH: Improvement Cost. (a) Lessor has included a build-out
allowance of $16.20 per square foot ($593,698.00) for Lessor to complete
Lessor's Improvements to the Premises (as preliminarily described in
Exhibit "C") and to pay for all necessary architectural plans, interior space
plans, construction drawings, engineering fees, construction costs, permit,
impact and certificate of occupancy fees. Both parties acknowledge that the
final cost to complete the above may change as final plans and specifications
are developed and priced. (The final agreed to price for Lessor's Improvements
shall include, but are not limited to, the costs for all necessary architectural
plans, interior space plans, construction drawings, engineering fees, impact and
permit fees, construction costs and certificate of occupancy fees, is
hereinafter referred to as the "Final Improvement Cost".)
(b) Lessee and Lessor agree to develop final architectural,
plumbing and electrical drawings for Lessors Improvements; to develop
specifications; to agree on a Final Improvement Cost: to make any additional
payments as described in Paragraph 37(c) below and to verify all of the above in
writing by January 31, 1999 (the "Verification Date"). In the event that Lessee
and Lessor fail to verify all of the above in writing by the Verification Date,
this Lease shall become cancelable by either party giving the other party
written notice of cancellation. In the event of such cancellation, Lessee shall
reimburse Lessor for its reasonable, documented costs for developing the plans
and specifications for Lessor's Improvements up to Fifteen Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($15,000.00) and such amount shall be deducted from Lessee's deposit
set forth in Witnesseth Paragraph hereof. The remaining deposit balance shall be
returned to the Lessee.
(c) In the event the Final Improvement Cost exceeds
$593,698.00, the excess amount will be paid by Lessee on or before the
Verification Date.
(d) In the event Lessee requests a change to the final plans
and specifications agreed to pursuant to Paragraph 37(b) above and said change
is reasonably acceptable to Lessor, or if any change is required by a
governmental agency, Lessor shall provide Lessee with an estimate of the cost or
savings associated with said change (including but not limited to the cost of
modifying the plans) and any associated time delays. If Lessee approves Lessor's
estimate, (a) the dates of this Lease shall be appropriately adjusted in writing
by both parties; and (b) in the event the change results in a cost increase, the
increase shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor at the time the change is approved,
or (c) in the event the change results in a cost decrease, Lessor shall apply
such decrease to Rent due under this Lease.
THIRTY-EIGHTH: Cancellation Option. (a) Provided there are no defaults
under this Lease and all payments due hereunder have been made to Lessor by
Lessee, Lessee may cancel this Lease effective upon the expiration of the
sixty-second (62nd) month of this Lease. Said cancellation is subject to Lessee
providing Lessor with six (6) months prior written notice (sent certified mail,
return receipt requested) together with payment of $330,000.00 cancellation
penalty. Said payment must be included with Lessee's cancellation notice to
Lessor in order for such notice to be effective. In the event of such
cancellation, Rent and Lessee's Proportionate Share of Expenses shall be payable
thru the sixty-second (62nd) month of this Lease. In the event Lessor does not
receive Lessee's cancellation notice and cancellation fee prior to the
expiration of the fifty-sixth (56th) month of this Lease, Lessee's Cancellation
Option shall be deemed waived.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
hereinabove, in the event that (a) there are no defaults under this Lease or the
lease for the New Premises, (b) a minimum of sixty-two (62) months have expired
under this Lease and (c) Lessee signs a new lease with Lessor to relocate and
expand to a minimum of 49,500 square feet (the "New Premises") in another
building in the Miramar Park of Commerce owned by Lessor, this Lease shall
terminate on such date as Lessee takes possession of the New Premises. Lessee
shall incur no penalty for such termination. It is mutually understood by Lessee
and Lessor that Lessee's financial condition may affect Lessor's ability to
accommodate Lessee's relocation and expansion and Lessee's subleasing space,
assuming the lease obligations from another lessee, and/or leasing space from
any entity other than Lessor shall not qualify as an expansion or relocation for
the purposes of this Paragraph 37(b).
THIRTY-EIGHTH: Right of First Refusal on Contiguous Space. Lessor grants
to Lessee, subject to the conditions outlined herein, a right of first refusal
to lease and occupy additional space that is contiguous to the Premises. Upon
Lessor's notification to Lessee of space availability, Lessee shall have seven
(7) calendar days in which to exercise its right hereunder to lease the
additional contiguous space at rental rate and on lease terms acceptable to
Lessor. Lessee's right-of-first refusal is subject to Lessee having the same or
better financial condition as it had on the date of this Lease. In the event
Lessee does not sign and return to Lessor the lease for such space within seven
(7) calendar days of receipt of a same from Lessor, Lessee shall be deemed to
have waived this right of first refusal. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, this right of first refusal is contingent upon there being no defaults
by Lessee under this Lease at such time.
THIRTY-NINTH: Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Lease, Lessee
7
shall, prior to Lessee being in default, interest or late charge being imposed,
or Lessor having any rights or remedies, be entitled to receive (i) ten (10) day
advance written notice in the case of any non-payment of money (including rent)
by Lessee (except that if Lessee shall receive more than two (2) notices of late
payment of monthly rent in any calendar year, it forfeits its rights to any
additional notice and grace for the remainder of said calendar year) and (ii)
thirty (30) day advance written notice in the case of non-performance of any
term other than the payment of money; provided, however, in the event such
non-performance cannot reasonably be cured by Lessee within thirty (30) days
after written notice from Lessor, Lessee shall have an additional period of time
as is reasonable under the circumstances for Lessee to cure said default
provided Lessee shall at all times diligently pursue said cure.
