destroyed, but remain suitable for the continued operation of Lessee's business,

condition which is substantially similar to that which existed immediately prior
to the damage or destruction within ninety (90) days after the date of such
commencement. During such period of time, rent and additional rent shall xxxxx
as set fourth above from the date of such damage or destruction until completion
of the repairs or restoration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor has the
right to provide Lessee substitute premises, if available, for Lessee's use
during which time Lessee shall continue to pay rent for use of same.
26. CONDEMNATION OR APPROPRIATION:
If, after the execution of this Lease or any extension or renewal hereof,
any portion of the Demised Premises shall be appropriated or condemned under
power of eminent domain or by any competent authority, such taking or
appropriation shall not render this Lease void, except that if the amount taken
makes the Demised Premises untenantable by mutual agreement of Lessor and
Lessee, then this Lease shall become void from the time when possession thereof
is taken as a result of such proceedings, and the Lessee shall pay all rents and
perform and observe all other covenants hereof up to the time when possession is
taken.
In the event that only a portion of the Demised Premises is taken as a
result of such proceedings, and provided Lessor and Lessee agree that the
remaining portion of the Demised Premises is Lesseeable, the Lessor, with all
reasonable dispatch, shall repair the remaining portion of the Demised Premises
so as to restore the same to a complete architectural unit, and there shall be a
proportionate abatement of rent and additional rent, based on the reduced size
of the Demised Premises.
Lessee shall have the right to make a separate/secondary claim for any
damages or loss as shall be occasioned under such taking, insofar as such claim
shall not materially diminish or adversely impact any claim (s) as may be
instituted by Lessor.
27. NOTICES:
All notices herein required or permitted to be given to or served upon
either party shall be in writing. Any such notice shall be sufficiently given or
served if sent by certified mail or by any nationally recognized overnight
carrier to the Lessor or Lessee at the address set fourth on the first page
thereof.
28. RIGHT OF LESSOR TO PERFORM LESSEE'S COVENANTS:
Lessor shall have the right at any time, after thirty (30) days written
notice to Lessee (or without notice in case of an emergency or in case any fine,
penalty, interest or cost may otherwise be imposed), to make any payment or
perform any act required by Lessee under any provision of this Lease, and in
exercising such right, to incur necessary and incidental costs and expense.
Nothing herein shall imply any obligation on the part of Lessor to make any
payment or perform any act required of the Lessee, and the exercise of the right
to do so shall not constitute a Lease of any obligation or a waiver of any
default.
All payments made and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
any exercise of such right shall be reimbursed by the Lessee within thirty (30)
days after such payment together with interest at two points over the Prime
Lending Rate as stated in The Wall Street Journal from the respective date of
the making of such payment or the incurring of such costs and expense. In
addition to any other rights and remedies available to Lessor, Lessor shall
have, in respect of Lessee's failure to make reimbursement of any amount as
aforesaid, the same rights and remedies as in the case of a default by Lessee in
the payment of rent.
29. DEFAULT BY LESSEE:
The following actions shall constitute a default by Lessee: (1) failure to
make any rental payment, including prorated increases in the cost of Real Estate
Taxes, Common Area Maintenance, Insurance and any other payments due hereunder
(hereinafter "rents") within fifteen (15) days after the same shall become due;
(2) abandonment of the Demised Premises; (3) breach or failure to perform any of
the terms or conditions of this Lease other than the payment of rents, as
defined in (1) above, which if such breach or failure to perform shall continue
after the expiration of thirty (30) days from date the Lessor gives notice to
Lessee of such breach or failure to perform; provided, however, that if such
breach or failure to perform is of such a nature that it cannot be reasonably
corrected within thirty (30) days , then no breach or failure to perform shall
be deemed to have occurred if the Lessee promptly, upon receipt of the notice,
commences the curing of the breach or failure to perform and diligently
prosecutes the same to completion.
In the event of any default as defined herein, the Lessor shall have the
immediate right to end Lessee's right of possession under this Lease, and to
re-enter and remove all persons and property from the Demised Premises, and to
dispose of any such property, all without service of notice to Lessee or resort
to legal process, and without Lessor being liable for any loss which may be
occasioned thereby. Should Lessor elect to re-enter, as herein provided, or
should Lessor take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any
notice provided for by law, Lessor may make such alterations and repairs thereof
which Lessor in its sole discretion may deem advisable, and Lessor may re-let
the Demised Premises for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending
beyond the term of this Lease or any extensions or renewals thereof) and at such
rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Lessor in its sole
discretion may deem advisable. Upon each such reletting, any rentals received by
Lessor from such reletting shall be applied, first, to the payment of any
indebtedness other than rents, as defined in (1) above, due thereunder from
Lessee to Lessor; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such
reletting, including brokerage fees, attorney's fees, costs and expenses of
litigation reasonably incurred and the cost of alterations and repairs; third,
to the payment of rents, as defined in (1) above, due and unpaid hereunder; and
the residue, if any, shall be held by Lessor and applied in payment of future
rents, as defined in (1) above, to be paid during that month by Lessee
hereunder. Lessee shall pay the cost any deficiency to Lessor.
No such re-entry or taking of possession of the Demised Premises by Lessor
shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease in its
entirety unless a written notice of such termination be given to Lessee or
unless the termination be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Lessor may at any time
thereafter elect to terminate this Lease in its entirely for any default by
Lessee. Should Lessor terminate this Lease in its entirety, for any such
default, in addition to any other remedies it might have, Lessor may recover
from Lessee all damages that Lessor may incur by reason of such default
including, but not limited to, any then due and unpaid rents, as defined in (1)
above, the cost of recovering the Demised Premises and reasonable Attorney's
fees. Should Lessor at any time end Lessee's right of possession for any default
by Lessee, (as hereinbefore provided), without termination of the Lease in its
entirety, in addition to any other remedies it might have, Lessor may recover
from Lessee all damages that Lessor may incur by reason of such default,
including but not limited to, any then due and unpaid rents, as defined in (1)
above, the cost of recovering the Demised Premises, reasonable attorney's fees,
and the balance of the rents as defined in (1) , above unpaid for the remainder
of the term hereof, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable
from Lessee to Lessor.
Further, upon breach or threatened breach by Lessee of any provision of
this Lease, Lessor shall have the right of injunction as if other remedies were
not provided for herein. Notwithstanding anything in this lease as may be
contained to the contrary, in the event of default under this Lease by Lessee,
Lessee shall have any and all rights and remedies with respect to default under
Florida State, Federal, Municipal, County, City or other applicable law or
statutes and in no event shall Lessee waive any of those rights or remedies as
contemplated herein excepting waiver of trial by jury, and the right to
interplead any claims, notwithstanding that the provisions of this lease shall
take precedent.
30. WAIVER OF LESSEE'S DEFAULT:
No waiver of any covenant or condition or of the breach of any covenant or
condition of this Lease shall be taken to constitute a waiver of any subsequent
breach of such covenant or condition nor to justify or authorize the
non-observance on any other occasion of the same or of any other covenant or
condition hereof, nor shall the acceptance of rent by Lessor at any time when
Lessee is in default under any covenant or condition hereof, be construed as a
waiver of such default or of Lessor's right to terminate this Lease on account
of such default, nor shall any waiver or indulgence granted by Lessor to Lessee
be taken as an estoppel against Lessor.
31. HOLDING OVER:
In the event Lessee continues to occupy the Demised Premises after the last
day of the initial term hereby created, or after the last day of any renewal or
extension of said term, and if Lessor does not consent to such holding over,
only a month to month tenancy shall be created at 2.0 times the then applicable
rental rate and upon the same terms and conditions contained herein.
32. SUBORDINATION AND COMPLIANCE WITH LENDER REQUIREMENTS:
This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage or other
lien created by Lessor, whether presently existing or hereinafter arising upon
the Demised Premises or the Building and to any renewals, refinancing and
extension thereof Lessee agrees that any such mortgagee shall have the right at
any time to subordinate such mortgage, or other lien to this Lease on such terms
and subject to such conditions as such mortgagee may deem appropriate. Lessor is
hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate this
Lease to any mortgage, or any other lien now existing or hereinafter placed upon
the Demised Premises or the Building, and Lessee agrees upon demand to execute
such further instruments subordinating this Lease or pursuant to which Lessee
shall attorn to the holder of any such liens as Lessor may request. If Lessee
should fail to execute any subordination or other agreement required hereunder
as requested, within a reasonable period of time, then Lessee hereby irrevocably
constitutes Lessor as its Attorney-in-Fact to execute such instrument in
Lessee's name, place and stead, it being agreed that such power is irrevocable
and is one coupled with an interest. In consideration of the foregoing, Lessor
shall grant to Lessee for the term of this Lease and any subsequent renewal
thereof, a Right of Non-Disturbance with respect to the Demised Premises,
provided that Lessee shall be in compliance with all terms, conditions, and
covenants of this Lease. Lessor shall request any Lender with an interest in the
property to agree that as long as Lessee is current in its obligations under the
Lease, that Lessee's occupancy and rights under the Lease shall not be
disturbed.
Lessee agrees that it will from time to time, within fifteen (15) days
after request by Lessor, execute and deliver to such persons as Lessor shall
request, a statement in recordable form certifying that this Lease is unmodified
and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same
is in full force and effect as so modified), stating the dates to which rent and
other charges payable under this Lease have been paid, stating that the Lessor
is not ill default hereunder (or if Lessee alleges a default, stating the nature
of such alleged default) and further stating such other matters as Lessor or its
mortgagee shall reasonably require, including certain financial information
about the Lessee.
33. LESSOR'S LIEN:
Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a lien and security interest on all property
of Lessee now or hereinafter placed in or upon the Demised Premises, and such
property shall be and remain subject to such lien and security interest of the
Lessor for payment of all rents and other sums agreed to be paid by Lessee
hereunder. Provided, however, that Lessor shall not have a lien which would be
superior to a lien from a lending institution, supplier or leasing company, if
such lending institution, supplier or leasing company has a security interest in
the equipment, furniture or other tangible personal property and which security
interest has it origin in a transaction whereby Lessee acquired such equipment,
furniture or other tangible personal property. The provisions of this paragraph
relating to such lien and security interest shall constitute a security
agreement under and subject to the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted and in
force in the state of Florida so that the Lessor shall have and may enforce a
security interest on all property of the Lessee now or hereafter placed in or
upon the Demised Premises, in addition to any and all other rights of the Lessor
provided by law. Lessee agrees to execute as debtor, such financing statement or
statements and other such documents as Lessor may now or hereafter request in
order to protect or further perfect Lessor's security interest.
34. QUIET ENJOYMENT:
Lessor covenants and warrants to Lessee that during the term of this
Agreement, if Lessee is not in default hereunder, Lessee's quiet and peaceable
enjoyment of the Demised Premises shall not be disturbed nor interfered with.
35. INVALIDITY OF A PARTICULAR PROVISION:
If any term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be deemed
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected
thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and shall be
enforced to the fullest extent provided by law.
36. ATTORNEY'S FEES:
As to any dispute or lawsuit hereunder including at appellate level or in
any bankruptcy proceedings, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
its reasonable attorney's fees, court cost and other costs of collection from
the non-prevailing party.
37. GOVERNING BODY:
All matters pertaining to this Lease shall be governed by the laws of the
State of Florida.
38. FORCE MAJEURE:
Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for the taking of any action
by the Lessor, Lessor shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be
excluded from the computation of such period of time, any delays due to strikes,
riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, governmental laws,
unforeseen conditions, regulations, zoning, building department delays, or
restrictions, or any other cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of the
Lessor.
39. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS:
All warranties, covenants and agreements herein shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the heirs, devisee, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns of Lessor and Lessee.
40. RECORDING:
Lessee agrees not to record this Lease or any memorandum hereof, but Lessor
may record this Lease or a memorandum thereof, at its sole discretion.
41. EXONERATION:
The Lessor or any successor in interest that may be an individual, joint
venture, tenancy in common, firm or partnership, general or limited, shall not
be subject to personal liability on such individual or on the members of such
joint venture, tenancy in common, firm or partnership in respect to any of the
covenants or conditions of this Lease. The Lessee shall look solely to the
equity of the Lessor in the building for the satisfaction of the remedies of the
Lessee in the event of a breach by the Lessor. It is mutually agreed that this
clause is and shall be considered an integral part of the aforesaid Lease.
42. BROKERS:
Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not made any
agreement or taken any action which has not already been disclosed and which may
cause anyone other than Trine Realty Partners to become entitled to a commission
as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Lease, and each will
indemnify and defend the other from any and all claims, actual or threatened,
for compensation by any such third person by reason of such party's breach of
its representation or warranty contained in this Section, except for Trine
Realty Partners, which represents the Lessee, but whose commission will be paid
in its entirety by the Lessor.
43. RADON:
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when it has
accumulated in the building in sufficient quantities, may present health risks
to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of radon which exceed federal
and state guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida. Additional
information regarding radon and radon testing may be obtained from your county
or public health unit.
44. COMPLIANCE WITH ADA AND PREMISES:
Lessor, to the best of Lessor's knowledge, shall deliver the Demised
Premises in compliance with current space and access requirements of the
Americans With Disabilities Act as of the date of execution of this Lease
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in such event that the Demised
Premises shall not be in compliance with the then current applicable ADA
requirements for space and access, the following shall occur: (1) Lessor may, at
Lessor's sole determination, agree to make such repairs and/or alterations to
accomplish compliance; or (2) Lessor, at Lessor's sole determination, may
terminate this Lease, wherein Lessor and Lessee shall be released from any and
all obligations as may have been assumed under this Lease. Lessee further
warrants that any Lessee improvements in the future will be designed and will be
built in full compliance with the then current space and access requirements of
the Americans With Disabilities Act. Nothing contained herein shall apply to any
instances where Lessee's non compliance with respect to ADA requirements shall
be caused by Lessee's specific usage of the Demised Premises.
45. COMPLIANCE WITH RULES AND REGULATIONS:
Lessee shall observe and comply with all reasonable rules and regulations
hereinafter set forth, which are made a part hereof, and with such further or
amended rules and regulations as Lessor may prescribe, for the safety, care, and
cleanliness of the Building, and the comfort, quiet, and convenience of all
occupants of the Building. A copy of the rules and regulations now existing is
attached hereto as Exhibit "A." Lessor reserves the right to amend and modify
said rules and regulations at any time as Lessor in its sole discretion may deem
necessary. Any such amendments shall be considered a part of this Lease as if
originally attached hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have hereunto executed this Lease on the
day and year first above set forth.
