ARTICLE 2. RENT
2.1 Base Rent. Tenant agrees to pay monthly as Base Rent during the Term of this Lease the sum set forth in Section 1.5 of this Lease, which amount shall be payable to Landlord at the address shown above. The first monthly installment of Base Rent shall be due and payable to Landlord on the Commencement Date for the first month’s rent and each monthly installment of rent shall be due and payable on or before the first day of each calendar month succeeding the Commencement Date during the Term of this Lease, provided, if the Commencement Date should be a date other than the first day of a calendar month, the monthly rental set forth above shall be prorated to the end of that calendar month during the term of this Lease. Tenant shall pay, as additional rent, all other sums due under this Lease. Tenant shall pay the first Delivery Fee payment to Landlord immediately upon Landlord’s delivery of the Premises to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord cannot deliver possession of the Premises to the Tenant on the Delivery Date due to a holding over by a prior tenant, Tenant’s default, or casualty affecting the Premises, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, but the Delivery Fee and all rents and other amounts due hereunder shall be abated until Landlord delivers possession and the expiration date of the Lease shall be extended by the corresponding number of days that the Commencement Date is postponed. Provided, however, if Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Delivery Date, then Tenant may terminate the Lease upon giving Landlord written notice.
2.2 CPI Calculation. Rent shall increase annually commencing with the first anniversary of the Commencement Date, and then again on each successive anniversary of the Commencement Date thereafter through the balance of the Term as follows: the monthly Base Rent in effect prior to the year in question (the “Prior Rent”) shall be increased during the year in question to equal the sum of (A) the Prior Rent, plus, (B) the product of (i) the sum of the numeral 1 plus the amount equal to the “Percentage Increase” (as defined below), multiplied by ii) the Prior Rent, provided that in no event shall annual Rent during any year be less than the annual Rent during the previous year.
The following terms shall have the meanings assigned to them in this Section 3:
(i) “CPI” means the “Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, Minneapolis-St. Xxxx, MN-WI, All Items, Standard Reference Base 1982-84=100” issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor. If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the manner in which the CPI is determined, an adjustment shall be made in the revised Index which would produce results equivalent, as nearly as possible, to those, which would be obtained if the CPI had not been so revised. If the 1982-84 average shall no longer be used as an index of 100, such change shall constitute a substantial revision. If the CPI become unavailable to the public because publication is discontinued, or otherwise becomes unavailable, the Landlord shall substitute a comparable index based upon changes in the cost of living or purchasing power of the consumer dollar published by any other governmental agency or, if no such index is available, then a comparable index published by a major bank, or other financial institution, university or recognized financial publication.
(ii) “Base CPI” means CPI in effect during the 13th month prior to the month in which the Rent in question is to be effective.
(iii) “Calculation Month” means the month prior to the month in which the Rent in question is to become effective.
2
(iv) “Percentage Increase” means the percentage equal to the fraction, the numerator of which shall be the CPI in effect in the current Calculation Month less the Base CPI, and the denominator of which shall be the Base CPI.
2.3 Operating Expenses. Tenant shall also pay as additional rent Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the Operating Expenses of Landlord for the Building of which the Premises are a part. Landlord shall, on or before December 31st of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease, give Tenant an estimate of the Operating Expenses payable per square foot of rentable area for the next calendar year. Tenant shall pay, as additional rent, along with its monthly Base Rent, one-twelfth (1/12) of such estimated Operating Expenses. Landlord may invoice Tenant monthly for Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the estimated Operating Expenses for each calendar year, which amount shall be adjusted from time-to-time by Landlord based upon anticipated Operating Expenses. Within four (4) months following the close of each calendar year, Landlord shall provide Tenant an accounting prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principals (GAAP) showing in reasonable detail all computations of additional rent due under this Section. In the event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly payments made by Tenant exceeds the amount of additional rent due by Tenant under this Section, the accounting shall be accompanied by evidence of a credit to Tenant’s account. In the event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly payments made by Tenant is less than the amount of additional rent due by Tenant under this Section, the accounting shall be accompanied by an invoice for the additional rent. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease, during the year in which this Lease terminates, Landlord, prior to the termination date, shall have the option to invoice Tenant for Tenant’s pro rata share of the operating expenses based upon the previous year’s operating expenses. If this Lease shall terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the amount of any additional rent payable by Tenant applicable to the year in which the termination shall occur shall be prorated on the ratio that the number of days from the commencement of the calendar year to and including such termination date bears to 365. Tenant agrees to pay any additional rent due under this Section within thirty (30) days following receipt of the invoice or accounting showing additional rent due. Tenant’s pro rata share set forth in Section 1.9 shall be equal to a percentage based upon a fraction, the numerator of which is the rentable square feet of space in the Premises as set forth in Section 1.2 and the denominator of which shall be the rentable square feet of space in the Building as set forth in Section 1.2.
2.4 Definition of Operating Expenses. The term “Operating Expenses” includes all expenses incurred by Landlord with respect to the maintenance and operation of the Building of which the Premises are a part, including, but not limited to, the following: maintenance, repair and replacement costs; electricity, fuel, water, sewer, gas and other common Building utility charges; signage; security system charges; security, window washing and janitorial services; trash and snow removal; lawn mowing, landscaping and pest control; management fees (not to exceed 5% of the gross rental income of the Building), reasonable wages and benefits payable to employees of Landlord whose duties are directly connected with the operation and maintenance of the Building; all services, supplies, repairs, replacements or other expenses for maintaining and operating the Building or project including parking and common areas; improvements made to the Building which are required under any governmental law or regulation that was not applicable to the Building at the time it was constructed; installation of any device or other equipment or capital improvement which improves the operating efficiency of any system within the Premises and thereby reduces Operating Expenses; any and all necessary replacements of the roof, structural portions of the Building, foundation and HVAC equipment done by Landlord and reimbursed by Tenant as additional rent, provided however said costs shall be amortized over the useful life of such replaced item according to GAAP; and all other expenses which would generally be regarded as operating, repair, replacement and maintenance expenses, all real property taxes and installments of special assessments (payable over the longest time period available), including dues and assessments by means of deed restrictions and/or owners associations which accrue against the Building during the term of this Lease and reasonable legal fees incurred in connection with actions to reduce the same; and all insurance premiums Landlord is required to pay or deems necessary to pay, including fire and extended coverage, rent loss and public liability insurance, with respect to the Building.

Tenant agrees to vacate and deliver the Premises to Landlord upon Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord to vacate.

Tenant shall have no claim to the condemnation award or proceeds in lieu thereof, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a separate award for the cost of removing and moving its personal property.
8.2 Partial Taking. If a portion of the Premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof, and this Lease is not terminated as provided in Section 8.1 above, the rent payable under this Lease during the unexpired portion of the term shall be adjusted to such an extent as may be fair and reasonable under the circumstances. Tenant shall have no claim to the condemnation award or proceeds in lieu thereof, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a separate award for the cost of removing and moving its personal property.
ARTICLE 9. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE
9.1 Landlord Assignment. Landlord shall have the right to sell, transfer or assign, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the Building. Any such sale, transfer or assignment shall operate to release Landlord from any and all liabilities under this Lease arising after the date of such sale, assignment or transfer, provided such transferee or assignee assumes all of Landlord’s obligations hereunder in writing for all obligations arising after the date of such sale, assignment or transfer.

Tenant shall not assign, in whole or in part, this Lease, or allow it to be assigned, in whole or in part by operation of law or otherwise (including without limitation a transfer of a majority interest of stock, or transfer of substantially all the assets of a corporation by merger, dissolution or otherwise) or mortgage or pledge the same, or sublet the Premises, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and in no event shall say such assignment or sublease ever release Tenant from any obligation or liability hereunder. Provided, however, Tenant may without Landlord’s consent (but only after notice is given to Landlord),
7
assign this Lease to (a) any subsidiary or parent company of Tenant, or (b) any entity resulting from a sale, merger, or consolidation of Tenant upon the following conditions: (i) that the total assets and net worth of such assignee shall be equal to or more than that of Tenant immediately prior to such sale, consolidation, or merger; (ii) that Tenant is not at such time in default hereunder; and (iii) that such successor shall execute an instrument in writing in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord fully assuming all of the obligations and liabilities imposed upon Tenant hereunder and shall deliver the same to Landlord. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event of any assignment or sublease, any option or right of first refusal granted to Tenant shall not be assigned by Tenant to any assignee or sublessee.

Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s proposed assignment or sublease and all required information concerning the proposed sublessee or assignee, Landlord shall have the following options: (1) consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, and, if the rent due and payable by any assignee or sublessee under any such permitted assignment or sublease (or a combination of the rent payable under such assignment or sublease plus any bonus or any other consideration or any payment incident thereto) exceeds the rent payable under this Lease for such. space, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all such excess rent and other excess consideration within ten (10) days following receipt thereof by Tenant; or (2) refuse to consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, which refusal shall be deemed to have been exercised unless Landlord gives tenant written notice providing otherwise.

Any collections directly by Landlord from the assignee or sublessee shall not be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant from the further performance of its obligations under this Lease.
9.4 Rights of Mortgage. Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any recorded mortgage presently existing or hereafter created upon the Building and to all existing recorded restrictions, covenants, casements and agreements with respect to the Building. Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate Tenant’s interest under this Lease to any first mortgage lien hereafter placed on the Premises, and Tenant agrees within ten (10) business days notice to execute a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement and such additional instruments as Landlord may reasonably require. If the interest of Landlord under this Lease shall be transferred by reason of foreclosure or other proceedings for enforcement of any first mortgage or deed of trust on the Premises, Tenant shall be bound to the transferee (sometimes called the “Purchaser”) under the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease for the balance of the Term remaining, including any extensions or renewals, with the same force and effect as if the Purchaser were Landlord under this Lease, and, if requested by the Purchaser, Tenant agrees to attorn to the Purchaser, including the first mortgagee under any such mortgage if it be the Purchaser, as its Landlord. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Tenant shall not be disturbed in its possession of the Premises so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder.
9.5 Tenant’s Statement. Tenant agrees to furnish, from time to time, within ten (10) days after receipt of a request from Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee, a statement certifying if applicable, the following; whether Tenant is in possession of the Premises; whether the Premises are acceptable; whether the Lease is in full force and effect; whether the Lease is modified or amended; whether Tenant claims any present charge, lien, or claim of offset against rent; whether the rent is paid for the current month and the amount prepaid, if any; whether there is any existing default by reason of some act or omission by Landlord; and such other matters as may be reasonably required by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee. Tenant agrees to furnish, from time to time, within ten (10) days after receipt of a request from Landlord, a current financial statement of Tenant, certified as true and correct by Tenant.

ARTICLE 11. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
11.1 Default by Tenant. The following shall be deemed to be events of default (“Default”) by Tenant under this Lease; (1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any installment of Base Rent or additional rent and such failure shall be continuing for a period of more than five (5) days after such installment was due or any other payment required pursuant to this Lease for a period of more than five (5) days after written notice to Tenant that such amount was due; (2) Tenant shall abandon any substantial portion of the Premises; (3) Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this Lease, other than the payment of rent, and such default shall continue for a period of more than fifteen (15) days after written notice to Tenant; provided, however, if such default may not be practicably cured by Tenant within such fifteen (15) day period, and provided further Tenant shall commence to cure the default within the fifteen (15) day period, the fact that the default is not cured within the fifteen (15) day period shall not constitute a breach of the Lease so long as Tenant diligently proceeds to cure the default and such default is cured within a reasonable period thereafter; (4) Tenant shall file a petition or if an involuntary petition is filed against Tenant (which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days or said filing), or becomes insolvent, under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law or admit that it cannot meet its financial obligations as they become due; or a receiver or trustee shall be appointed for the benefit of creditors; or (5) Tenant shall do or permit to be done any act which results in a lien being filed against the Premises or the Building and/or project of which the Premises are a part, which is not released within sixty (60) days of the date such claim or lien first attached.
In the event that an order for relief is entered in any case under the United States Code, Title 11 (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in which the Tenant is the debtor, the Tenant as debtor-in-possession, or any Trustee who may be appointed, if applicable, agrees as follows (i) to perform each and every obligation of Tenant under this Lease until such time as this Lease is either rejected or assumed by order of the United States Bankruptcy Court; (ii) to pay monthly compensation for use and occupancy of the Premises, an amount equal to the fixed rent as well as other charges due pursuant to the Lease; (iii) if Tenant or the Trustee seeks to assume the Lease, then Tenant, or Trustee, if applicable, in addition to providing adequate assurance described in applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, shall provide adequate assurance to Landlord of Tenant’s future performance under the Lease by depositing with Landlord a sum equal to the lesser of twenty-five percent of the rental and other charges due for the balance of the Lease term or three (3) months rent (“Security”), to be held (without any allowance for interest thereon) to secure Tenant’s obligations under the Lease; (iv) if Tenant or Trustee, seeks to assume or assign the Lease, Tenant or Trustee agrees to give Landlord at least forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any proceeding relating to any assumption of this Lease; (v) if Tenant or Trustee seeks to assign this Lease after assumption of the same, then Tenant or the Trustee, in addition to providing adequate assurance described in applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, shall provide adequate assurance to Landlord of the proposed assignee’s future performance under the Lease by depositing with Landlord a sum equal to the Security to be held (without any allowance for interest thereon) to secure performance under the Lease. Nothing contained herein expresses or implies, or shall be construed to express or imply, that Landlord is consenting to assumption and/or assignment of the Lease by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves all of its rights to object to any assumption and/or assignment of the Lease. Neither Tenant nor any Trustee shall conduct or permit the conduct of any “fire”, “bankruptcy”, “going out of business” or auction sale in or from the Premises; (vi) Tenant or Trustee agrees to give at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any abandonment of the Premises or rejection of the Lease; (vii) if Tenant or the trustee, rejects the Lease as described in the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant or Trustee consents to the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court permitting the immediate lifting of the automatic stay, waiving notice and hearing of the entry of same, so the Landlord may offset any security deposits or other monies being held by the Landlord against any and all obligations due and owing pursuant to the Lease; (viii) without limiting the foregoing, Tenant and/or the Trustee releases Landlord from any and all causes of action, claims, demand, defenses, set offs and the like under Sections 502 (d), 542, 547, 548, 550, 551 and 553 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ix) the Tenant or Trustee agrees that the Landlord will have an allowed claim in the Tenant’s bankruptcy case in the amount equal to the obligations which remain due and owing pursuant to the provisions of the Lease.
11.2 Remedies for Tenant’s Default. Upon the occurrence of a Default as defined above Landlord may elect either (i) to cancel and terminate this Lease and this Lease shall not be treated as an asset of Tenant’s bankruptcy estate, or (ii) to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only without canceling and terminating Tenant’s continued liability under this Lease. Notwithstanding the fact that initially Landlord elects under (ii) to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only, Landlord shall have the continuing right to cancel and terminate this Lease by giving ten (10) days written notice to Tenant of such further election, and shall have the right to pursue any remedy at law or in equity that may be available to Landlord.
In the event of election under (ii) to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only, Landlord may at Landlord’s option, enter into the Premises and take and hold possession thereof, without such entry into possession terminating this Lease or releasing Tenant in whole or in part from Tenant’s obligations to pay all amounts hereunder for the full stated term. Upon such reentry, Landlord may remove all persons and property from the Premises and such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, without becoming liable for any loss
9
or damage which may be occasioned thereby. Such reentry shall be conducted in the following manner; without resort to judicial process or notice of any kind if Tenant has abandoned or voluntarily surrendered possession of the Premises; and, otherwise, by resort to judicial process. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the Lease, Landlord may, but is not obligated to, release the Premises, or any part thereof, to any one other than the Tenant for such time and upon such terms as Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, shall determine Landlord may make alterations and repairs to the Premises to the extent deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable.
Upon such reentry, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord as follows:
A. For all reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord in connection with exercising any remedy hereunder;
B. For the unpaid installments of Base Rent, additional rent or other unpaid sums which were due prior to such reentry, including interest and late payment fees, which sums shall be payable immediately.
C. For the installments of Base Rent, additional rent, and other sums falling due pursuant to the provisions of this Lease for the period after reentry during which the Premises remain vacant, including late payment charges and interest, which sums shall be payable as they become due hereunder.
D. For all expenses incurred in releasing the Premises, including reasonable leasing commissions, attorney’s fees, and costs of alteration and repairs, which shall be payable by Tenant as they are incurred by Landlord; and
E. While the Premises are subject to any new lease or leases made pursuant to this Section, for the amount by which the monthly installments payable under such new lease or leases is less than the monthly installment for all charges payable pursuant to this Lease, which deficiencies shall be payable monthly.
Notwithstanding Landlord’s election to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only, and notwithstanding any releasing without termination, Landlord at any time thereafter, may elect to terminate this Lease, and to recover (in lieu of the amounts which would thereafter by payable pursuant to the foregoing, but not in diminution of the amounts payable as provided above before termination), as damages for loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an aggregate sum equal to the amount by which the rental value of the portion of the term unexpired at the time of such election is less than an amount equal to the unpaid Base Rent, percentage rent, and additional rent and all other charges which would have been payable by Tenant for the unexpired portion of the term of this Lease, which deficiency and all expenses incident thereto, including reasonable commissions, attorney’s fees, expenses of alterations and repairs, shall be due to Landlord as of the time Landlord exercises said election, notwithstanding that the term had not expired.
If this Lease shall be terminated by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant or Tenant’s estate, as liquidated damages for loss of bargain and not as a penalty, the amount determined by the immediately preceding paragraph.
11.3 Landlord’s Right to Perform For Account of Tenant. If Tenant shall be in Default under this Lease, Landlord may cure the Default at any time for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If Landlord cures a Default on the part of Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days of receiving a statement that sets forth the nature of the work performed, supplies furnished or any amount expended by Landlord in connection with the cure, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and interest.
11.4 Interest and Attorney’s Fees. In the event of a Default by Tenant; (1) if a monetary default, interest shall accrue on any sum due and unpaid at the rate of the lesser of ten percent (10%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by law and, if Landlord places in the hands of an attorney the enforcement of all or any part of this Lease, the collection of any rent due or to become due or recovery of the possession of the Premises, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord’s costs of collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees for the services of the attorney, whether suit is actually filed or not.
11.5 Additional Remedies, Waivers, Etc.
A. The rights and remedies of Landlord set forth herein shall be in addition to any other right and remedy now and hereafter provided by law. All rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive of each other. Landlord may exercise its rights and remedies at any times, in any order, to any extent, and as often as Landlord deems advisable without regard to whether the exercise of one right or remedy precedes, concurs with or succeeds the exercise of another.
10
B. A single or partial exercise of a right or remedy shall not preclude a farther exercise thereof, or the exercise of another right or remedy from time to time.
C. No delay or omission by Landlord in exercising a right or remedy shall exhaust or impair the same or constitute a waiver of, or acquiesce to, a Default.
D. No waiver of a Default shall extend to or affect any other Default or impair any right or remedy with respect thereto.
E. No action or inaction by Landlord shall constitute a waiver of a Default.
No waiver of a Default shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Landlord.
11.6 Default by Landlord. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default under this Lease until Tenant has given Landlord written notice specifying the nature of the default and Landlord does not cure such default within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice or within such reasonable time thereafter as may be necessary to cure such default where such default is of such a character as to reasonably require more than fifteen (15) days to cure. Upon an event of default by Landlord, Tenant shall have all remedies provided at law or in equity for such default.

Rules and Regulations
Any sign, lettering, picture, notice, or advertisement installed on or in any part of the Premises and visible from the exterior of the Premises shall be installed at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and in such manner, character, and style as Landlord may approve in advance in writing. In the event of a violation of the foregoing by Tenant, Landlord may remove the same without any liability and may charge the expense incurred by such removal to Tenant.
No awning or other projection shall be attached to the outside walls of the Building. No curtains, blinds, shades, or screens visible for the exterior of the Premises shall be attached to or hung in, or used in connection with any window or door of the Premises without prior written consent of Landlord. Such curtains, blinds, shades, screens, or other fixtures must be of quality, type, design, and color and attached in the manner approved in advance by Landlord.
Tenant, its servants, employees, customers, invitees, and guests shall not obstruct sidewalks, entrances, passages, corridors, vestibules, or halls in and about the Building which are used in common with other tenants and their servants, employees, customers, guests and invitees, and which are not a part of the Premises of Tenant.
Tenant shall not make excessive noises, cause disturbances or vibrations, or use or operate any electrical or mechanical devices that emit excessive sound or other waves or disturbances or create obnoxious odors, any of which may be offensive to other tenants and occupants of the Building.
Tenant assumes full responsibility for protecting its space from theft, robbery, and pilferage, which includes keeping doors locked and other means of entry to Premises closed and secured after normal business hours.
In no event shall Tenant bring into the Building flammables, such as gasoline, kerosene, naphtha, and benzene, or explosives or any other substance of intrinsically dangerous nature. If, by reason of the failure of Tenant to comply with the provisions of this subparagraph, any insurance premium for all or any part of the Building shall at any time be increased, Tenant shall be required to make immediate payment of the whole of the increased insurance premium.
The water and wash closets, drinking fountains and other plumbing fixtures shall not be used for any purpose other than this for which they were constructed, and no sweepings, rubbish, rags, coffee grounds, or other substances shall be thrown therein. All damages resulting from any misuse of the fixtures shall be borne by the Tenant who; or in whose servants, employees, agents, visitors, or licensees; shall have caused the same. No person shall waste water by interfering or tampering with the faucets or otherwise.
Tenant shall keep the Premises at a temperature sufficiently high to prevent freezing of water in pipes and fixtures.
The outside areas immediately adjoining the Premises shall be kept clean by Tenant and Tenant shall not place or permit any obstructions or merchandise in such areas.
The use of parking shall be subject to reasonable regulations as Landlord may promulgate from time to time uniformly to all tenants. Tenant agrees that it will not use more that its prescribed number of stalls at any one time, and will not use or permit the use by its employees of the parking area for the overnight storage of automobiles or other vehicles. There will not be any assigned exclusive parking spaces available to any tenant of the building except with prior, written consent of the Landlord.
19
Tenant shall pay for and maintain its own separate rubbish container (dumpster). Such container shall be placed at the rear of the Building and must have a lid so as to prevent scattering of trash.
Tenant and its servants, employees, agents, visitors, and licensees shall observe faithfully and comply strictly with the foregoing rules and regulations and such other and further appropriate rules and regulations as Landlord or its agent may from time to time adopt. Landlord shall give written notice of any additional rules and regulations.
Landlord reserves the right at any time and from time to time as reasonably necessary to rescind, alter, or waive, in whole or in part, any of these Rules and Regulations when it is deemed necessary, desirable, or proper, in Landlord’s judgment, for its best interest or for the best interest of the tenants of the Building.
