5.PARKING AREA
The Parking Area is graphically illustrated on Exhibit B, attached hereto.

Subject to the foregoing, Owner, in its reasonable discretion, reserves the right, from time to time, to (i) establish a parking management plan and/or promulgate rules and regulations relating to the use of the Parking Areas in conjunction with the other parking area on Owner’s Land and Owner’s nearby lands; (ii) designate spaces for certain uses (so long as the use designations do not unreasonably and adversely impact Tenant’s and Tenant’s employees’ access to the Building relative to the access provided to Tenant absent such designation by Owner); (iii) so long as the following does not unreasonably and adversely impact Tenant’s and Tenant’s employees’ access to the Building, change the shape, layout, size, location, and number
8
Exhibit 10.36
of spaces (provided any legal or contractual minimums are maintained); and (iv) remove and cause to be removed any personal property or vehicles parked in the Parking Area in violation of the requirements of this Lease or the rules and regulations promulgated by Owner. Tenant agrees that Owner may relocate up to 167 parking spaces from the eastern portion of the Parking Area to the North Parking Area if Owner deems is necessary to provide parking for users of a new development east of the Premises; provided, however, in exercising the right of relocation of such (up to) 167 spaces: (1) Owner will relocate parking in reasonable blocks of adjacent parking spaces (both in the ‘relocate from’ area and the ‘relocate to’ area); (2) Owner covenants not to engage in material construction staging activities in the portion of the Premises made available by the relocated parking; (3) Tenant’s parking areas will continue to have access to Spa Street for ingress-egress; (4) the parking spaces in the ‘relocate to’ areas must be roughly equivalent (or better) than the ‘relocate from’ areas in size and condition; and (5) Tenant will not have any maintenance, repair or replacement obligations with respect to ‘relocate from’ areas, but will accept maintenance, repair and replacement obligations with respect to the ‘relocate to” areas (provided that if Owner has not re-sealed and restriped the ‘relocate to’ portions of the North Parking Area since the Effective Date, then Owner will re-seal and restripe the ‘relocate to’ portion in a manner equivalent to that required for Owner’s Work).
6.OWNER’S OTHER LANDS
1.Redevelopment of North Parking Area
Tenant acknowledges that Owner may redevelop some or all of the North Parking Area during the term of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that Owner has made no promises to Tenant of any kind with respect to any future development, use or occupancy of any of the North Parking Area. Tenant agrees that any lawful development, use and occupancy of any of the North Parking Area will not constitute interference with any of Tenant’s rights under the Lease unless such development, use or occupancy violates the terms of this Lease; provided, however, if Owner relocates Tenant’s parking spaces to the North Parking Area pursuant to Section 5, then Owner agrees that its development, use and occupancy of the North Parking Area will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s access to, and use of, the relocated parking spaces, and Tenant will be entitled to use the existing access easements to Americana Blvd. for ingress and egress for Tenant’s parking.
2.Construction Activity in the North Parking Area
If Owner commences construction activities in the North Parking Area, Owner will communicate with Tenant from time-to-time regarding the scope and schedule for the construction activities (which communications may include sending copies public notices for entitlement or development as required by law), and Owner will use commercially reasonable efforts to limit unreasonable interference with Tenant’s rights under the Lease (e.g., disruption of reasonable access to the Premises by construction vehicles and equipment); provided, however, nothing herein will obligate Owner to place any restrictions or limits on Owner’s development, construction or other activities unless such activities are otherwise prohibited by applicable law or the terms of this Lease. Further, provided that Owner does not relocate any of Tenant’s parking to the North Parking Area, if Owner elects to conduct construction activities on the North Parking Area, Owner agrees that Owner will undertake the following restrictions unless Tenant agrees to alternative limitations (a) Owner will limit construction vehicle access and construction personal access to the two access points located off of Americana Blvd.; and (b) Owner will install a construction fence between the Premises and the area of such construction activities. Tenant agrees that, during the period of construction activities on the North Parking Area, Owner may limit or prohibit use of the two access points off of Americana Blvd. by Tenant Parties, and may place appropriate barriers off of the Premises to enforce such access limitation.
3.Other Lands
. Tenant acknowledges that other lands in the area of the Premises and the North Parking Area (including lands that may be owned, acquired or sold by Owner or its affiliates from time-to-time) may be subject to redevelopment. Tenant acknowledges that Owner has made no promises to Tenant of any kind with respect to any future development, use or occupancy of such other lands, and that any lawful development, use and occupancy of such other lands by Owner or its affiliates will not constitute a breach or default of Owner’s obligations to Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant believes the development, use and occupancy of such other lands are interfering with Tenant’s rights, then Tenant may exercise its legal rights and remedies against the persons or entities causing the interference.
4.North Parking Area Parking Lot Lights and Landscaping
. Owner will maintain the portion of the landscaping areas adjacent to the North Parking Area. Tenant acknowledges that the parking lot lights in the North Parking Area are controlled, and receive power from, the electrical system on the Premises. Further, Tenant acknowledges that the landscaping on (and in the right-of-way adjacent to) the North Parking Area are controlled by, and receive water from, the control system and water supply system on the Premises. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Owner to allow Owner to continue to use the existing systems for the parking lot lights and irrigation system for the North Parking Area. Tenant may invoice Owner for the usage fees paid (and costs of maintenance, repair and replacement) by Tenant for electricity
9
Exhibit 10.36
used by Owner for such parking lot lights and the usage fees paid by Tenant of irrigation water used by Owner for such landscaping; provided, however, Tenant may not invoice Owner during any period that Tenant allows its employees and guests to use the North Parking Area for parking (unless relocated pursuant to Section 5), but only to the extent of Tenant’s use.
7.TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
1.Design and Construction of Tenant Improvements
. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense (other than Owner’s payment of the TI Allowance as set forth in Section ) will design and construct the Tenant Improvements as set forth in Exhibit D.
2.Payment of TI Allowance
. Tenant will invoice Owner for the TI Allowance after Tenant achieves the Term Commencement Date. Tenant’s invoice must be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Owner that all costs associated with the Tenant Improvements have been paid, which reasonable evidences may be executed final lien waivers from all contractors, labors, materialmen, equipment providers, and any other person that would have a right to claim a lien against the Premises on account of the Tenant Improvements. Owner will pay the TI Allowance to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after Owner’s receipt of Tenant’s invoice.
8. USE OF PREMISES
1.Permitted Use
. Tenant may use the Premises only for the Permitted Use; provided, however, in no event will Tenant allow the Premises to be used for any purpose that violates this Lease, the Legal Requirements or any Permitted Encumbrance. Tenant may use the Premises for other office or service uses that are generally consistent with the Permitted Use only with Owner’s prior approval, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed as long as the other office or service use is consistent with the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees that it would be reasonable for Owner to withhold or condition its consent to any residential, industrial, retail or restaurant use. Tenant agrees that with respect to the Permitted Encumbrances, Tenant will observe, perform and comply with and carry out the provisions thereof required therein to be observed and performed solely with respect to the Premises or Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises. Subject to Tenant’s rights under Section 24 hereof, (i) Tenant will not permit any unlawful occupation, business or trade to be conducted on the Premises or any use to be made thereof contrary to applicable Legal Requirements or Insurance Requirements; and (ii) Tenant will not use, occupy or permit any of the Premises to be used or occupied, nor do or permit anything to be done in or on the Premises, in a manner which would (1) make void or voidable any insurance which Owner is required hereunder to maintain then in force with respect to any of the Premises, (2) affect the ability of Owner to obtain any insurance which Tenant is required to furnish hereunder, or (3) cause any injury or damage to the Building, unless pursuant to Alterations permitted under Section 13 hereof; provided that Owner hereby confirms that Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Use (i.e., general office and call center uses) is not in violation of the restrictions set forth in Section (1) through (3) hereof.

9.TERM
.
1.Delivery Date
. The parties agree that this is a fully binding and enforceable agreement from and after the Effective Date, notwithstanding that the Delivery Date, Term Commencement Date and Rent Commencement Date will occur in the future. Tenant’s right to occupy the Premises for the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements (but not for the Permitted Use or any business operations) will commence on the Delivery Date; provided, however, Tenant may request that Owner grant early occupancy to Tenant for design and evaluation purposes (but not construction purposes) in any manner that is not inconsistent with Owner’s commitments to any other occupant of the Premises, and Owner agrees not to unreasonably refuse any such request. Owner hereby confirms for the benefit of Tenant that no occupancy by any occupant of the Premises will extend beyond December 31, 2019 and, if any occupant holds over in the Premises beyond such date, Owner shall promptly and diligently commence and prosecute to completion the eviction of such occupant(s) at Owner’s sole cost and expense. If any occupant damages the Premises or otherwise vacates its space and leaves it in a condition different than contemplated under this Lease, Owner will be responsible for the restoration of the damage or vacated space to the proper condition contemplated under this Lease.
2.Initial Term
. Tenant will have and hold the Premises for an initial term commencing on the Term Commencement Date and ending at the expiration of the Initial Term. When the Term Commencement Date has occurred, Owner will prepare and Tenant will sign a factually correct acknowledgement of the Term Commencement Date. Any failure by Tenant to either promptly object to the contents of such acknowledgement, or to promptly sign and return the acknowledgement, will be deemed agreement with its contents.
3.Renewal Term(s)
. Tenant will have the right to exercise the Renewal Term(s), provided Tenant satisfies each of the requirements set forth in this Section 9.3. Each Renewal Term(s) will commence at the day following the last day of the Lease Year for the then current Term. Base Rent for each Lease Year during the Renewal Term will be determined pursuant to the Basic Lease Terms. Tenant’s failure to exercise the Renewal Term in the manner required herein will terminate Tenant’s right to all Renewal Term(s). Tenant will satisfy each of the following requirements as a condition of exercising any Renewal Term:
1.Tenant must submit a written notice to exercise the Renewal Term to Owner not less than one (1) year prior to the expiration of the then current Term (“Renewal Notice”);
2.The Lease must be in full force and effect as of the date of the Renewal Notice and must continue thereafter until the commencement of the Renewal Term;
3.An Event of Default shall not exist at delivery of the Renewal Notice or at the commencement of the Renewal Term; and
11
Exhibit 10.36
4.Tenant must not have subleased the entirety of its interest in the Premises, except pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.
10.BASE RENT
1.Base Rent
. Tenant will pay the Base Rent to Owner as minimum rent for the Premises during the Term, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each month during the Term, and will pay the same by bank or wire transfer to Owner or, at Tenant’s option, by check at Owner’s address set forth in the Basic Lease Terms, or at any other place as Owner from time to time may designate to Tenant in writing by not less than sixty (60) days’ prior notice.
2.Base Rent Increases
. Base Rent will be increased on the first day of each Lease Year in the amounts stated in the Basic Lease Terms.
3.Taxes, Impositions and Insurance Estimates
. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant will pay to Owner each month one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount of Owner’s estimate of the cost of Taxes, Impositions and Owner’s Insurance (“TII Estimates”). Within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year, Owner will provide Tenant with a line item reconciliation statement (“Reconciliation Statement”) stating: (i) the total amount actually paid by Tenant for the TII Estimates for the prior calendar year, (ii) the actual amount of the Taxes, Impositions and Owner’s Insurance (with supporting documentation) for the prior calendar year, (iii) a statement of the amount of Taxes, Impositions or Owner’s Insurance overpaid or underpaid by Tenant, and (iv) a statement of the amount of the TII Estimates for the current year. Subject only to Tenant’s audit rights in Section 10.9, Tenant will pay any underpayment within thirty (30) days after receipt of the annual statement together with substantiating backup documentation. Any overpayment or unapplied TII Estimates will be returned to Tenant concurrently with Owner’s delivery of the annual statement, or for the final Lease Year, within sixty (60) days after the expiration or termination of this Lease.
4.Late Charges; Default Interest
. If Owner does not receive any monthly installment of Base Rent or TII Estimates due and payable under this Lease within five (5) business days after its due date, and such failure is the second (2nd) or more frequent occurrence in any 12-month period during the Term, then Tenant will pay to Owner a one-time late charge equal to the greater of $250 or two percent (2%) of the overdue amount as liquidated damages for Owner’s extra expense and handling of past due accounts (“Late Charge”). Further, and in addition to any Late Charge, any Rent past due for a period of thirty (30) or more days will bear interest from the due date at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum (“Default Interest”) until cured in full. Acceptance of a Late Charge and/or Default Interest will not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount nor prevent Owner from exercising any other rights or remedies granted hereunder. No payment by Tenant of an amount less than that due will be construed other than as a partial payment nor will any endorsement or statement on the check or letter accompanying the payment be deemed to create accord and satisfaction.
5.No Deductions
. This Lease is the absolute and unconditional obligation of Tenant. Except as expressly set forth otherwise in this Lease, all Rent must be paid in United States dollars without notice, demand, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution, deduction, reduction or defense.
6. No Accord and Satisfaction
No payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner of a lesser amount than the Rent due will be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest Rent, nor will any restrictive or qualifying endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept the check or payment of Rent without prejudice to Owner’s rights to recover the balance of the Rent or pursue any other remedy under this Lease, and will not constitute a waiver by Owner of any rights, nor will it reinstate this Lease or cure a default on the part of Tenant.
12
Exhibit 10.36
7. Net Lease
. This is an absolute net lease. From and after the Term Commencement Date, in addition to Base Rent, Tenant will be responsible for all Taxes, Impositions and Owner’s Insurance, and as well as all operating, use, utilities, services, maintenance, repair, replacement and other costs attributable to the Premises of any kind whatsoever, except as expressly provided otherwise under this Lease. Owner will not be responsible for any costs or expenses in connection with the Premises arising after the Term Commencement Date, except as expressly provided in this Lease.
8.Additional Rent
. As Additional Rent, Tenant will pay (before any fine, lien, interest or penalty may be added thereto for late payment thereof) all other amounts and obligations which Tenant assumes or agrees to pay pursuant to this Lease, together with every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added by the party to whom the payment is due for nonpayment or late payment thereof as a result of Tenant’s non-performance thereof. If Tenant fails to pay any Additional Rent when due and payable, and such failure remains after five (5) business days’ notice from Owner, Owner will have all rights, powers and remedies provided herein, by law or otherwise, as would apply in the event of nonpayment of Base Rent.
9.Audit Rights
. In the event of a dispute as to any Reconciliation Statement, Tenant will have the right, after reasonable notice, to inspect to inspect Owner’s accounting records at reasonable times. If, after such inspection, Tenant still disputes such Reconciliation Statement, upon Tenant’s request therefor, a certification as to the proper amounts due under such of Reconciliation Statement and the amount due to or payable by Tenant shall be made by an independent (i.e. not utilized by either party within the past three (3) years) certified public accountant mutually agreed to by Owner and Tenant. If Owner and Tenant cannot mutually agree to an independent certified public accountant, then each party shall select an independent certified public accountant, who then shall jointly select a third independent certified public accountant (failing which agreement either party may seek a judicial determination of such independent certified public accountant). Each of the three (3) independent certified public accountants shall, within forty-five (45) days after selection make a good faith determination of the amounts properly incurred and due under such Reconciliation Statement and any amounts then due, and shall notify Owner, Tenant, and each other independent certified public accountant of such determinations. If all independent certified public accountants do not agree on of the amounts properly incurred and due under the Reconciliation Statement for the period in dispute, the common decision of two (2) of them shall be determinative. If two (2) of the three (3) independent certified public accountant are unable to so agree, the determination that is neither the highest nor lowest of the three (3) determinations shall be final determination of the amounts properly incurred and due under such Reconciliation Statement for period in dispute. Such certification shall be final and conclusive as to all parties. If the certification reflects that Tenant has overpaid amounts due under final Reconciliation Statement for the period in question, then Owner shall promptly refund such excess to Tenant and conversely, if Tenant has underpaid amounts due from Tenant thereunder, Tenant shall promptly pay such additional amounts to Owner. Each party shall be responsible for the cost of its independent certified public accountant and the parties shall share in the costs of any jointly appointed independent certified public accountant.
10.Exclusions
. Amounts due from Tenant to Owner under this Lease will not include any expenses as to which Owner is reimbursed by any third party, any other tenant, or by the proceeds of any insurance procured by Owner pursuant to this Lease. The following shall also constitute exclusions therefrom:

M.any excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, federal and state income taxes, and other taxes applied or measured by Owner’s general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts, or income directly attributable to operation of the Premises); and
N.any costs expressly excluded, or expressly made the sole responsibility of Owner and not subject to reimbursement, elsewhere in this Lease.
11.SIGNS
. Subject to the Legal Requirements, and further subject to Tenant obtaining Owner’s approval of the drawings, dimensions, design and location of each sign, Tenant, at its cost, will have the right to install and maintain signs on the exterior of the Building and a sign on each monument sign for the Premises (if any). All signage will be maintained in a condition commensurate with local industry customs and standards and be approved by Owner in writing. No other signs will be permitted on the Premises without Owner’s consent.
12. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
1.Structural Repairs
. Throughout the Term, Owner will be responsible for performing any capital repairs and replacements of the Building structure, roof structure, roof membrane and major rooftop HVAC equipment as they exist on the Effective Date of this Lease, except to the extent caused by Tenant Improvements, Alterations, or, to the extent not covered by insurance required to be maintained under this Lease, Tenant’s negligent or wrongful act (“Structural Repairs”); provided, however, the all costs incurred by Owner for the Structural Repairs will be amortized over the useful life of the Structural Repair (as reasonably determined by Owner in accordance with GAAP), and, subject to amounts recovered under insurance required to be maintained under this Lease, or under warranties, indemnities or guarantees from third party vendors or contractors with respect to such Structural Repairs, or condemnation proceeds applicable thereto, Tenant agrees to pay to Owner, as Additional Rent under this Lease, a monthly amount equal to the amortized portion for that month. Tenant agrees that Owner has no obligation to inspect the Premises for Structural Repairs (but Owner may elect to do so from time-to-time). Owner’s obligations with respect to Structural Repairs will not commence until a reasonable time after Tenant has notified Owner that Tenant believes that Structural Repairs may be necessary for Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, which notice must specify the nature of the Structural Repairs desired by Tenant (provided, however, Owner will remain free to perform any Structural Repair that Owner identifies as necessary, even if no notice thereof was provided by Tenant). Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the first twenty-four (24) months of the Initial Term, Owner will be responsible for any extraordinary maintenance and repairs (and the cost of any replacement) of the Building rooftop HVAC units.
2.Tenant’s Obligations
. Tenant will at all times, keep and maintain all elements of Premises (including, without limitation, the roof, landscaping, walls, footings, foundations and structural components of the Premises and the Parking Area) in the same condition and order of repair as exists as of the Term Commencement Date of this Lease, excepting only Structural Repairs, events of casualty or condemnation, and ordinary wear and tear. Tenant will provide Owner with a plan for periodic inspections and preventative
14
Exhibit 10.36
maintenance plan for the ordinary maintenance and repair of the Premises (including the roof, HVAC system, exterior walls, landscaping and Parking Area) consistent with Tenant’s ordinary maintenance and repair of its other properties in the downtown Boise area for approval. Tenant will timely perform all preventative maintenance identified in the plan. Except as for Structural Repairs, Tenant will promptly make all repairs and replacements of every kind and nature, whether foreseen or unforeseen, which may be required to be made upon or in connection with the Premises in order to keep and maintain the Premises in the order and condition required by this Section 12.2. Except for the Structural Repairs, Owner will not be required to make any repair, whether foreseen or unforeseen, or to maintain any of the Premises in any way, and Tenant hereby expressly waives the right to make repairs at the expense of Owner, which right may be provided for in any Legal Requirements now or hereafter in effect. Tenant will, in all events, make all repairs for which it is responsible hereunder promptly, and all repairs will be in a good, proper and workmanlike manner. Owner represents to Tenant that Owner has a manufacturer’s warranty on the roof and that Owner will secure commercially reasonable warranties from the contractor’s performing Owner’s Work, and Owner will undertake commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the warranties. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 12.2 exclude matters covered under the warranties held by Owner, to the extent such matters are actually performed without cost to Owner by the manufacturer or contractor that provided the warranty.
3.Owner’s Cure Rights
. If Tenant defaults under any of the provisions of this Section 12, Owner may after thirty (30) days’ notice given to Tenant and the failure of Tenant to cure within such 30-day period, or if more than 30 days is required, to commence to cure such matter and diligently prosecute the same to completion (but without any notice or cure period in the event of an emergency), do whatever is necessary to cure the default as may be appropriate under the circumstances for the account of and at the expense of Tenant. In the event of an emergency, Owner will notify Tenant of the situation by phone or other available communication. All reasonable sums so paid by Owner and all actual reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest from the date of payment or incurring the expense, will constitute Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease and will be paid by Tenant to Owner within thirty (30) days of presentation of any invoice therefor with reasonable backup for all expenses for which reimbursement is sought.
6.UTILITIES, SERVICES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY
1.Utilities and Services
. From and after the Delivery Date, Tenant will be responsible for ensuring the adequacy and suitability of all utility and other services to the Premises for Tenant’s purposes, which will in any event include sufficient utilities and services (including heat) to prevent damage to the Premises. Tenant may reasonably alter, increase, upgrade, install, remove, reconfigure or otherwise change any utilities in furtherance of Tenant’s use of the Premises. Tenant will not be required to remove or reconfigure the utility services at expiration of this Lease. Owner will not have responsibility for any failure of any utility services serving the Premises, and no utility interruption will be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant, or render Owner liable to Tenant for damages, or relieve Tenant from the full and complete performance of all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
2.Generator and UPS
. Tenant will have the right to install a generator with pad site and uninterruptable power supply (UPS) to serve the Premises, subject to the Legal Requirements, but only on the Premises (or a location on Owner’s Lands near the Premises) at a location that is reasonably acceptable to both Owner and Tenant. Owner will not charge Tenant additional rent or fees for the use of the pad site or any connecting conduit. The generator and UPS systems will be and remain Tenant’s property, and Tenant will have the right to remove such items before expiration of this Lease for property inside of the Building and within thirty (30) days after expiration of this Lease for the generator and UPS system on the exterior pad.
3.Data Services
. Tenant, at its expense, will arrange for all telecommunications and data services for the Premises, including wire and cables. Owner will have no responsibility for the maintenance or removal of Tenant’s data services and/or wiring or cabling, or for any infrastructure to which it is connected. Owner will have no liability for any liability, costs or damages in connection with Tenant’s data facilities or any lines and cables located outside of the Premises (other than to the extent caused by any Owner Parties’ intentional misconduct), including: (a) any shortages, failures, variations, interruption, disconnection, loss or damage caused by (i) the installation, maintenance, replacement, use or removal of telecommunication and data equipment and/or wiring by others; (ii) any failure of the environmental conditions or the power supply for the Premises to conform to the requirements for Tenant’s data services; or (iii) any other problems associated with any of Tenant’s data facilities by any other cause (other than
15
Exhibit 10.36
due to the intentional misconduct of Owner Parties); (b) any failure of any data services or data facilities to satisfy Tenant’s requirements; or (c) any eavesdropping or wire-tapping by unauthorized parties. The occurrence of any of the foregoing will not be considered an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. To the extent that Owner’s contractors, or other third parties who are not Owner Parties, cause damages to Tenant’s data facilities, or any lines and cables located outside of the Premises, then Tenant will have the right to pursue its legal rights and remedies (if any) against such contractor or third party for such damage, subject to the limitations of this Lease (including Section 18.5).
4.Tenant’s Property
. Tenant’s Property placed on or in the Premises will not become a part of the realty and may be removed by Tenant at any time. Tenant’s Property (and any other personal property brought to the Premises by any Tenant Party) will be deemed abandoned and will become the property of Owner if not removed within ten (10) business days after the expiration or sooner termination of the Term and may, if so elected by Owner, become the property of Owner; provided, however, Owner will have the right to require Tenant to remove all personal property from the Premises. Tenant will pay, prior to delinquency, any taxes and assessments that may be assessed or levied against Tenant’s Property (and any other personal property brought to the Premises by any Tenant Party).
14.ALTERATIONS
. Except for the Tenant Improvements and the repair or replacement of finishes in the Premises (i.e., paint, carpet, flooring, wallcoverings, countertops and similar items), Tenant will not make any structural or non-structural Alterations to the Premises without Owner’s consent; provided, however, the placement of art, decorations, boards, screens, and other items customarily placed on walls in office buildings will not be deemed to be an alteration or modification so long as they can be removed without substantial irreparable damage to the walls. Owner may condition its consent on various matters, including Tenant agreeing to remove the Alterations and repair any resulting damage on Lease termination at Tenant’s cost, and if such alterations require construction permits from local governmental permitting authorities, Tenant posting security for the estimated cost of the Alterations or Tenant posting performance bonds for the Alterations, and/or lien waivers, and Owner’s approval of the plans and specifications for the Alterations. All Alterations will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, and in conformity with all Legal Requirements. Upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant will (a) if such alterations require construction permits from local governmental permitting authorities, provide Owner with “as built” plans and copies of all construction permits, contracts and approvals; and (b) provide Owner with proof of payment for all labor and materials. Owner agrees to execute affidavits of legal interest as necessary for Tenant to secure any permits or approvals for approved Alterations from any governmental authority having jurisdiction; provided, however, any fees, charges and expenses required in connection therewith must be borne solely by Tenant. Unless permitted under the Tenant Improvements or this Section 14, Tenant will not make any penetrations in the roof, walls, floor slab, foundations or exterior of the Building whatsoever without Owner’s prior consent. In no event shall Tenant be required to remove the Tenant Improvements (including any data or cabling installations installed as part of Tenant’s Work) or Alterations upon the expiration of earlier termination of this Lease, unless Owner requires such removal as part of any required consent to its installation. Owner also agrees that Tenant will not be obligated to remove any Tenant Improvements approved by Owner, unless Owner requires the removal obligation as a condition of Owner’s approval; provided, however, Owner agrees that Tenant will not be obligated to remove any Tenant Improvements that are ordinary or customary for general office and call center uses.
15.LIENS
. Subject to Section 24, Tenant will not create or permit (by Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant), and will promptly discharge, any lien (or claim of lien) on the Premises other than any mortgage, lien, encumbrance or other charge created by or resulting from any act or omission by Owner or those claiming by, through or under Owner (except Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant). Notice is hereby given that Owner will not be liable for any labor, services or materials furnished or to be furnished to Tenant, or to anyone holding any of the Premises through or under Tenant, and that no mechanic’s or other liens for any labor, services or materials will attach to or affect the interest of Owner in and to any of the Premises. Nothing in this Lease and no action or inaction by Owner will be deemed or construed to mean that Owner has granted to Tenant any right, power or permission to do any act or to make any agreement which may create, give rise to, or be the foundation for, any right, title, interest or lien in or upon the estate of Owner in any of the Premises. If Tenant fails to remove or satisfy any lien (or claim of lien) on the Premises within thirty (30) days of its imposition, Owner will have the right (but not the obligation) to cause the lien (or claim of lien) or claim to be discharged, paid, compromised, dismissed or removed, including by the posting of a bond. Any sums paid by Owner, including attorneys’ fees and bond premiums, if applicable and reasonably and actually incurred, will be Additional Rent and due and payable to Owner by Tenant within thirty (30) days of presentation of an invoice with appropriate
16
Exhibit 10.36
backup for all such costs and expense for which reimbursement is sought. Tenant will promptly notify Owner of any lien (or claim of lien) filed against the Premises or any action related to any lien (or claim of lien) affecting title to the Premises upon actual knowledge thereof.
16.INDEMNIFICATION
. Owner Parties will not be liable to Tenant, and subject to Owner’s release in the last sentence of this Section 16, Tenant will indemnify, defend (using legal counsel acceptable to Tenant) and hold harmless each of the Owner Parties from and against, any and all suits, claims, demands, liability, damages, costs and expenses of every kind and nature (for which the Owner Parties are not reimbursed by insurance required under this Lease), including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, attorneys’ fees and expenses, court costs, penalties and fines, for loss or damage to the Premises or the property of others, and any personal injury, illness or death, incurred in connection with or arising out of the following: (a) the use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant Parties; (b) the Tenant Improvements, Tenant’s Work and any alterations to the Premises undertaking or contracted for by Tenant; (c) the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Tenant Parties with respect to the Premises; (d) any failure of Tenant to fully, timely and faithfully observe, perform or comply with its obligation under this Lease; or (e) any failure of Tenant to fully, timely and faithfully observe, perform or comply with the Legal Requirements (or any of its other obligations under applicable law). Tenant’s obligations under this Section 16 will survive any expiration or termination of this Lease. Each of Owner Parties will be express third-party beneficiaries of Tenant’s obligations under this Section 16. If applicable law expressly restricts or limits Tenant’s obligations under this Section 16, then Tenant will fulfill its obligations under this Section 16 to the extent not expressly restricted or limited by applicable law. Tenant’s indemnity obligations hereunder will not obligate Tenant to indemnify, defend or hold harmless an Owner Party from the negligence or intentional misconduct of any Owner Party.
17.OWNER’S INSURANCE
Owner will maintain the following insurance on the Premises (“Owner’s Insurance”):
1.Insurance against loss or damage to the Building under a fire and broad form of all risk extended coverage insurance policy (which may include flood insurance if the Premises is located within a flood hazard area and which may include earthquake insurance if the Premises is located in an area where earthquake insurance is customarily maintained for similar commercial properties). The insurance will be in amounts not less than the actual replacement cost of the Building, including the Tenant Improvements (when completed), but excluding footings and foundations and other parts of the Building which are not insurable, as determined by Owner from time to time. The insurance policies may contain reasonable exclusions and deductible amounts as desired by Owner. The insurance policy will include a waiver of any rights of subrogation or recovery against Tenant.

4.Owner’s Insurance will be written by companies selected by Owner that are authorized to do an insurance business in the State of Idaho. Sums due from Owner for deductibles or in-lieu-of insurance proceeds because of any self-insurance programs will be treated as insurance proceeds for all purposes under this Lease.
5.Owner will pay all premiums for Owner’s Insurance, will renew or replace each policy, and will deliver to Tenant a certificate of insurance (reasonably satisfactory to Tenant) of the existing policy and any renewal or replacement policy at least thirty days prior to the expiration date of each policy.
6.Owner’s Insurance may be carried under a “blanket” policy or policies covering the other properties or liabilities of Owner and Owner’s affiliates, provided that the “blanket” policy or policies otherwise comply with the provisions of this Section 17. If any insurance is carried under a blanket policy, Owner will deliver to Tenant evidence of the issuance and effectiveness of the policy, the amount and character of the coverage with respect to the Premises and the presence in the policy of provisions of the character required in the above sections of this Section 17.
7.Tenant will give Owner immediate notice of any casualty loss with respect to the Premises. Owner will adjust, collect and compromise any and all claims.

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Owner will not be purchasing property insurance for Tenant’s Property, and therefore Tenant will not allow any element of Tenant’s Property to be placed on, or remain on, the Premises if the element is not fully insured and fully covered by the waiver of subrogation identified herein, and Owner Parties fully protected by the waiver of recovery identified herein with respect to the element.
6.Insurance Requirements
.

If the Transferee defaults, Owner may, without affecting any other rights of Owner, proceed against Tenant or any Transferee or any other person liable for Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Tenant will provide the notice address for any subtenant or assignee to Owner prior to the effective date of the Transfer and if it is not provided, the applicable notice address will be deemed to be the Premises.
19
Exhibit 10.36
21.DAMAGE
. In the event of damage to the Premises or any part thereof, Tenant will promptly notify Owner thereof. To the extent insurance proceeds are available (or would have been available from Owner’s Insurance should Owner fail to maintain the same), Owner will diligently cause the damage to be repaired; provided, however, Owner will have no obligation to make the repairs if the damages are a result of any negligent, willful or intentional acts of Tenant not covered by any applicable insurance. If the damage or destruction is more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the insurable value of the Premises, or if the damage or destruction is more than ten percent (10%) of the insurable value of the Premises and occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Initial Term (unless Tenant previous exercised the Renewal Term) or during the last twelve (12) months of the Renewal Term, then either Owner or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date the damage occurred regardless of the sufficiency of any insurance proceeds; provided, however, (a) Owner will not terminate the Lease if Tenant elects to repair the damage at Tenant’s own expense or if Owner and Tenant execute a mutually acceptable amendment to this Lease to address the issues related to the damage; and (b) Tenant will not terminate the Lease if Tenant elects to repair the damage at Owner’s own expense or if Owner and Tenant execute a mutually acceptable amendment to this Lease to address the issues related to the damage.

Tenant irrevocably assigns to Owner any award or payment in respect to any Condemnation of Owner’s interest in the Premises, except that (except as hereinafter provided) nothing in this Lease will be deemed to assign to Owner any award relating to the value of the leasehold interest created by this Lease or any award or payment on account of the Tenant’s Property, moving expenses and out-of-pocket expenses incidental to the move, if available, to the extent Tenant will have a right to make a separate claim therefor against the condemnor, it being agreed, however, that Tenant will in no event be entitled to any payment that reduces the award to which Owner is or would be entitled for the condemnation of Owner’s interest in the Premises.
2.If the entire Premises is subject to a Taking then this Lease will terminate on the day the Taking occurs.
3.If at least ten percent (10%) of the land that comprises the Premises, or the Building, or reasonable access to the Premises is subject to a Taking by a duly constituted authority or agency having jurisdiction, then either Owner or Tenant may terminate this Lease no later than ninety (90) days after the Taking has occurred by delivery of a notice to the other party terminating this Lease as of the last day of the month that is specified in the notice, which date will be no sooner than the last day of the month occurring at least thirty (30) days after the date of the termination Notice.

23.SUBORDINATION TO FINANCING
.
1.Tenant agrees that this Lease will at all times be subject and subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage, and Tenant agrees, upon demand, without cost, to execute instruments as may be required to further effectuate or confirm the subordination; provided, however, except by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant’s rights under this Lease will not be disturbed, terminated or otherwise adversely affected, nor will this Lease be affected, by any default under any Mortgage. In the event of a foreclosure or other enforcement of any Mortgage, or sale in lieu thereof, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale will be bound to Tenant for the Term of this Lease and any Renewal Term, the rights of Tenant under this Lease will expressly survive, and this Lease will in all respects continue in full force and effect so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Tenant will not be named as a party defendant in any foreclosure suit, except as may be required by law.
2.Tenant agrees to attorn, from time to time, to any new Owner taking title other than by foreclosure of any Mortgage or deed in lieu thereof, or, subject to Tenant’s receipt of a fully executed Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (as defined below), Lender or any Owner taking title by foreclosure of any Mortgage or deed in lieu thereof,
20
Exhibit 10.36
upon the terms and conditions of this Lease for the remainder of the Term. The provisions of this Section 23.2 will inure to the benefit of any such new Owner or Lender, will apply notwithstanding that, as a matter of law, this Lease may terminate upon the foreclosure of the Mortgage, and no further instrument will be required to give effect to the provisions of this Section 23.2, subject to the non-disturbance provisions of Section 23.1, other than a fully executed Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement.
3.Each of Tenant, Owner and Lender, upon demand of the other, hereby agrees to execute, from time to time, instruments in confirmation of the foregoing provisions of Section 23.1 and Section 23.2, reasonably satisfactory to the requesting party acknowledging the subordination, non-disturbance and attornment as are provided in this Lease, and setting forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy (“Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement”).
4.Each of Tenant, Owner and Lender agrees that, if requested by any of the others, each will, without charge, enter into a commercially reasonable Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement, provided the agreement contains provisions providing for non-disturbance of Tenant in accordance with the provisions of Section 23.1. Owner, Tenant and Lender agree that the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement will include commercially reasonable provisions for the benefit of Tenant, Owner and Lender, including Lender’s, Owner’s and Tenant’s agreement that (a) neither Owner nor Tenant will pay or accept any installment of Base Rent more than one (1) month in advance of the due date thereof; and (b) neither Owner nor Tenant will amend or modify the Lease (or enter into any agreement to do so) other than as expressly contemplated by this Lease (e.g., upon the exercise of any Renewal Term, or as contemplated under Section 21 of this Lease) without in each case the consent of Lender, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, Lender may withhold or condition its consent to any amendment or modification which would or could (i) materially alter in any way the nature of Tenant’s obligations hereunder or materially diminish any obligations of Owner or Tenant under the Lease, including the amount or time for payment of any Base Rent or Additional Rent, other than as expressly contemplated by this Lease; or (ii) result in any termination hereof prior to the end of the Term other than as expressly contemplated by this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement shall be deemed commercially reasonable unless it (1) acknowledges that if the TI Allowance or commission payable by Owner to Tenant’s broker has not been fully paid, or if Owner’s Work has not been fully performed, then Tenant may deduct the unfunded amount of the TI Allowance or commission to Tenant’s Broker, or the reasonable cost of Tenant to perform Owner’s Work, from the Base Rent owed by Tenant to Owner next becoming due; (2) recognizes Tenant’s right under Section 26.4 to terminate this Lease due to Owner default; and (3) confirms for the benefit of Tenant that no attornment by Tenant to any such Owner or Lender shall operate to decrease the benefits to Tenant under this Lease or to increase the obligations of Tenant under this Lease in any material respect. Tenant’s obligation to subordinate to any Lender shall be conditioned on Tenant receiving a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement from such Lender. If the Premises are subject to any encumbrance in favor of a Lender as of the Effective Date, it shall be a condition to the effectiveness of this Lease that Owner’s Lender enter into a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement with Tenant not later than the Delivery Date.
24.PERMITTED CONTESTS
.
1.After prior notice to Owner, Tenant will not be required to (i) comply with any Legal Requirement, or (ii) discharge or remove any lien referred to in Section 11 or Section 13, so long as Tenant contests, in good faith and at its expense, the existence, the amount or the validity thereof, the amount of the damages caused thereby, or the extent of its or Owner’s liability therefor, by appropriate proceedings which will operate during the pendency thereof to prevent (A) the collection of, or other realization upon, lien so contested, (B) the sale, forfeiture or loss of any of the Premises, any Base Rent or any Additional Rent to satisfy the same or to pay any damages caused by the violation of any Legal Requirement or by any violation, (C) any interference with the use or occupancy of any of the Premises, (D) any interference with the payment of any Base Rent or any Additional Rent, and (E) the cancellation of any fire or other insurance policy.
2.In no event will Tenant pursue any contest with respect to any Legal Requirement or lien referred to above in a manner that exposes Owner or Lender to (i) criminal liability, penalty or sanction; (ii) any civil liability, penalty or sanction for which Tenant has not made provisions reasonably acceptable to Owner and Lender; or (iii) defeasance of its interest in the Premises.
3.Tenant agrees that each any contest will be promptly and diligently prosecuted to a final conclusion, except that Tenant will have the right to attempt to settle or compromise any contest through negotiations. Tenant will pay and save Owner and Lender harmless against any and all losses, judgments, decrees and costs (including all attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any contest and will, promptly after the final determination of any contest, fully pay and discharge the amounts which will be levied, assessed, charged or imposed or be determined to be payable therein or in connection therewith, together with all penalties, fines, interest, costs and expenses thereof or in connection therewith, and perform all acts that may be ordered or decreed as a result thereof. All recoveries by Tenant with respect to any successful contest will remain the sole property of Tenant (except Tenant’s recovery of any funds by Owner will be paid to Owner).

Exhibit 10.36
25.TENANT DEFAULT
1.Defaults
. Tenant will be in default under this Lease if (a) Tenant fails to pay any Rent when due, or (b) Tenant fails to perform any other obligation under this Lease, or (c) a Financial Distress Default (defined in Section 25.8) occurs (an “Event of Default”, provided, however, a default that is curable under Section 25.2 below (a “Curable Default”) will not be an Event of Default during the applicable cure period (set forth in Section 25.2 below)). Except for Late Charges and Default Interest due under Section 10.4, Owner agrees that it will not invoke its remedies under this Section 25.1 if Tenant cures a Curable Default within the applicable cure period. If a Curable Default occurs and Tenant fails to cure the default within the applicable cure period, Owner may, immediately or at any time thereafter, and without preventing Owner from exercising any other right or remedy, (i) elect to terminate this Lease by notice, by lawful entry or otherwise, whereupon Owner will be entitled to recover possession of the Premises from Tenant and those claiming through or under Tenant and (ii) accelerate the payment of all Base Rent payable by Tenant for the balance of the Term and upon any election the sums will be immediately due and payable in full. In addition, Owner may require Tenant to pay to Owner a fee of $300 for each Curable Default not cured within the applicable cure period, and the fee will be Additional Rent immediately due and payable. The fee is intended to compensate Owner for the additional time and effort required to address Tenant’s default of this Lease Termination of this Lease and any repossession will be without prejudice to any remedies Owner has for Rent or for a prior breach of any of the provisions of this Lease.
In case of termination, Tenant will be liable to Owner for all costs and expenses including the amounts due under Sections 25.3 and 25.4. Each right and remedy provided Owner in this Lease is cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy provided in this Lease, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. The exercise by Owner of any one or more of its rights or remedies will not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Owner of any or all other rights or remedies.
When this Lease requires service of a notice, that notice will replace rather than supplement any equivalent or similar statutory notice. When a statute requires service of a notice in a particular manner, service of that notice (or a similar notice required by this Lease) in the manner required by this Lease will replace and satisfy the statutory service of notice procedures.
2.Cure Periods
.
1.Monetary Defaults
. If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or amounts hereunder when due, it will be a Curable Default and the cure period will be ten (10) business days after the date the Rent was due.
2.Financial Distress Default
. An Involuntary Financial Distress Default (defined in Section 25.8) is a Curable Default and the cure periods are set forth in Section 25.8. A Voluntary Financial Distress Default is not a Curable Default.
3.Insurance Default
If Tenant fails to maintain the required insurance, it is a Curable Default and the cure period is ten (10) business days after the date Owner provides notice of the default.
4.Estoppel or Subordination Default If Tenant fails to provide the requested estoppel certificate (Section 28) or subordination agreement (Section 23) within the time period provided, it will be a Curable Default and the cure period will be ten (10) business days from the date of Owner’s second request for the estoppels or subordination.
5.Hazardous Substances

7.Other Defaults
. Any non-monetary breaches of this Lease not listed above in this Section 25.2 will be considered Curable Defaults and the cure period will be thirty (30) days after notice from Owner; provided that if the default cannot reasonably be cured within that time period, Tenant will have additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default so long as Tenant commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues the cure to completion.
22
Exhibit 10.36
3.Expense Recovery
. Tenant will pay all costs and expenses incurred by Owner in connection with any default (whether the default is curable or not, and prior to the cure of any curable default), including (i) all collection costs and costs of obtaining Tenant’s compliance with this Lease, including attorneys’ fees and enforcement costs; and (ii) all Owner’s other costs proximately caused by the default, excluding consequential or other indirect damages of Owner (including, without limitation, lost profits or business interruption), without waiver however of Tenant’s rights under Section 31.14). The amounts will be due and payable immediately upon notice from Owner without regard to whether the cost or expense was incurred before or after the termination of this Lease. If proceedings are brought under the Bankruptcy Code, including proceedings brought by Owner, which relate in any way to this Lease, then Tenant will pay Owner the costs incurred by Owner in connection with the proceeding (without waiver of Tenant’s rights under Section 31.14).
4.Damages
Notwithstanding termination of this Lease and reentry by Owner pursuant to Section 25.1, Owner will be entitled to recover from Tenant:
(a)Any unpaid Rent which had been earned by Owner prior to the time of termination with Default Interest accrued thereon; plus
(b)The amount by which the unpaid Rent would have been earned after termination until the time of an award exceeds the amount of loss of Rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, with Default Interest accrued thereon; plus
(c)The worth at the time of an award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term (as extended, if at all prior to termination) exceeds the amount of the loss of Rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided (including Default Interest accruing from the date of the award until paid), discounted at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or successor Federal Reserve Bank, on the date of termination; plus
(d)Any other amount necessary to compensate Owner for all the damage proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, including amounts due and payable pursuant to Section 25.3.
5.Non-Termination of Lease
. No act of Owner other than a written declaration of termination of Lease will serve to terminate this Lease. If there is a Curable Default and Tenant fails to cure the default within the applicable cure period or if there is a default that is not a Curable Default, Owner will, without limiting any other rights or remedies provided herein or at law, have the right to sublet or assign this Lease, continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment or surrender of possession, and recover Rent as it becomes due. Accordingly, if Owner does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Owner may enforce all of Owner’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all Rent as it becomes due. Separate actions may be maintained by Owner against Tenant from time to time to recover any damages which, at the commencement of any action, are then due and payable to Owner under this Section 25.5 without waiting until the end of the Term.
6.Reletting
. If Tenant’s right of possession has been terminated (with or without termination of this Lease), Owner may at any time, and from time to time, relet the Premises in whole or in part either in its own name or as agent of Tenant for any period equal to, or more or less than the remainder of the then current Term. All rentals received by Owner from the reletting will be applied first to the payment of any amounts other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Owner; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of the reletting and of alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, will be held by Owner and applied in payment of future Rent as it becomes due hereunder. Tenant will pay Owner for the loss of Base Rent by a payment at the end of each month during the remaining Term representing the difference between the Base Rent which would have been paid in accordance with this Lease and the Base Rent actually derived from the Premises by Owner for the month. Upon a reletting of the Premises, Owner will not be required to pay Tenant any sums received by Owner in excess of amounts payable in accordance with this Lease. For purposes of this Section 25.6, Tenant’s right to possession will not be considered to have been terminated by Owner’s efforts to relet the Premises, by Owner’s acts of maintenance or preservation with respect to the Premises, or by appointment of a receiver to protect Owner’s interests under this Lease. This list is merely illustrative of acts that may be performed by Owner without terminating Tenant’s right to possession.
23
Exhibit 10.36
7.Right of Owner to Cure Defaults
. If Tenant defaults in its obligations under this Lease, Owner may cure the default, at Tenant’s expense, and without notice, if Owner believes the default creates a risk of damage to persons or interests of others, or in any other case only upon Tenant’s failure to remedy the default within the applicable cure period, if any. Tenant will reimburse Owner for any costs incurred by Owner to cure default, together with Default Interest accrued thereon.

.
1.Definition
. Each of the following will be a “Financial Distress Default” under this Lease unless cured within the cure periods set forth below: (a) the making by Tenant of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt, or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy; and (b) the appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of all or any part of Tenant’s assets. A Financial Distress Default will be considered “Voluntary” if the action initiating the default was made by Tenant or a person or entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Tenant and otherwise will be considered “Involuntary”. For example, a bankruptcy filing initiated by Tenant is a Voluntary Financial Distress Default and a bankruptcy filing by creditors of Tenant will be considered an Involuntary Financial Distress Default. Tenant will immediately notify Owner upon the occurrence of any Financial Distress Default. Tenant will have sixty (60) days to cure an Involuntary Financial Distress Default under clause (a) above by having the petition dismissed. Tenant will have sixty (60) days to cure an Involuntary Financial Distress default under clause (b) above by having the trustee or receiver dismissed or otherwise regaining possession of Tenant’s assets.
2.Filing of Petition
3.. If a petition (“Petition”) is filed by or against Tenant (as either debtor or debtor-in-possession) under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and same is not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter:
(1)Adequate protection for Tenant’s Lease obligations accruing after filing of the Petition will be provided within fifteen (15) days after filing in the form of a deposit equal to two months Base Rent (in addition to the security deposit), to be held by the court or an escrow agent approved by Owner and the court.
(2)All amounts payable by Tenant to Owner under this Lease represent reasonable compensation for the occupancy of the Premises by Tenant.
(3)Tenant or Trustee will give Owner at least thirty (30) days written notice of any abandonment of the Premises or proceeding relating to administrative claims. If Tenant abandons without notice, Tenant or Trustee will stipulate to entry of an order for relief from stay to permit Owner to reenter and relet the Premises.
(4)If Tenant was in default under the Lease before the filing of the Petition, whether or not Owner has given Tenant notice of that default and whether or not any cure period expired before filing the Petition, Tenant will be deemed to have been in default on the date the Petition was filed for all purposes under the Bankruptcy Code.
(5)For purposes of Section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, prompt cure of defaults will mean cure within thirty (30) days after assumption.
(6)For the purposes of Section 365(b)(1) the Bankruptcy Code, adequate assurance of future performance of this Lease by Tenant, Trustee or any proposed assignee of the Lease will require that Tenant, Trustee or the proposed assignee deposit two months Base Rent payments into an escrow fund (to be held by the court or an escrow agent approved by Owner, Tenant or Trustee, and the court) as security for future performance. In addition, if the Lease is to be assigned, adequate assurance of future performance by the proposed assignee will require that: (i) the assignee have a tangible net worth equal to eight times the annual Rent due hereunder or that the assignee’s performance be unconditionally guaranteed by a person or entity that has a tangible net worth not less than the above amount; (ii) assignee assume in writing all of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease.
(7)If Tenant or Trustee intends to assume and/or assign the Lease, Tenant or Trustee will provide Owner with thirty (30) days written notice of the proposed action, separate from and in addition to any notice provided to all creditors. Notice of a proposed assignment and assumption will state the assurance of prompt cure, compensation for loss and assurance of future performance to be provided to Owner. Notice of a proposed sale will state: (i) the name, address, and federal tax ID numbers of the proposed assignee; (ii) the terms and conditions of the proposed assignment; and (iii) the proposed assurance of future performance.

Any act which Owner is permitted to perform under this Lease may be performed at any time and from time-to-time by Owner or any person or entity designated by Owner.
2.Tenant’s Release
. Tenant and all those claiming through or under Tenant, including Tenant Parties, will store their property in and occupy the Premises solely at their own risk. Tenant hereby releases Owner Parties from all claims by Tenant or Tenant Parties, including damage to furniture, equipment, fixtures or other property, or damage to business (including business interruption), arising directly or indirectly out of or from or on account of the occupancy and use or resulting from any present or future conditions or state of repair thereof, it being agreed that Tenant will assume the risk of loss thereof (other than due to the intentional misconduct of any Owner Party).
3.Entry by Owner
. Owner and its authorized representatives will have the right upon reasonable notice (which will be not less than two (2) business days, except in the case of emergency, in which event Owner will provide reasonable notice under the circumstances apparent to Owner) to enter the Premises at all reasonable business hours (and at all other times in the event of an emergency): (a) for the purpose of inspecting the same or for the purpose of doing any work under Section 12.1, and may take any action thereon as may be necessary or appropriate for any purpose (but nothing contained in this Lease or otherwise will create or imply any duty upon the part of Owner to make any inspection or do any work), and (b) for the purpose of showing the Premises to prospective purchasers and mortgagees and, at any time within six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease for the purpose of showing the same to prospective tenants. No entry will constitute an eviction of Tenant but any entry will be done by Owner in any reasonable manner as to limit unreasonable disruption of Tenant’s business operation. Tenant may require that an employee of Tenant accompany Owner and its authorized representatives during any entry in the Premises and such parties shall comply with Tenant’s reasonable security requirements in connection with such entry.
4.Owner Default
. Owner will perform all of Owner’s covenants as set forth in this Lease.

If Owner fails to cure the default stated in Tenant’s notice within the applicable cure period, Tenant may pursue any remedy now or hereafter permitted or available to Tenant under the laws of the State of Idaho (except as limited in this Lease), provided in no event will Tenant be entitled to terminate this Lease unless and until Tenant provides a second notice to Owner (and Lender, if any) of Tenant’s election to terminate the Lease if Owner fails to cure the default stated in Tenant’s second notice within an additional period of thirty (30) days after Owner received Tenant’s second notice. In no event will any of the Owner Parties be liable to Tenant, or any person or entity claiming under, by or through Tenant (including any employee, agent, subtenant, vendor, contractor or insurer), for any form of incidental or consequential damages, including any loss of use related to the Premises.

The cost of removing and disposing of the property and repairing any damage to any of the Premises caused by the removal will be borne by Tenant. Owner will not in any manner or to any extent be obligated to reimburse Tenant for any property which becomes the property of Owner as a result of the expiration or earlier termination.
3.If Tenant fails to surrender possession of the Premises upon termination or expiration of this Lease, and Owner consents in writing to Tenant’s continued occupancy (which consent may be withheld in Owner’s sole discretion), then Tenant’s occupancy will be deemed to be a month to month tenancy, with Base Rent at the rate of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent payable during the calendar month immediately preceding the termination or expiration, and Owner or Tenant may terminate the month to month tenancy upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party.

If the financial statement is confidential, it will remain confidential, subject to review by potential purchasers and lenders, who would be instructed to maintain confidentiality. This Section will not apply to Tenant during any period in which Tenant is a publicly traded company.
2.
.Owner and Tenant will each make reasonable efforts to mitigate the loss or damage occasioned by a default of the other party, provided that the obligation to mitigate will not relieve the defaulting party of the applicable burden of proof or otherwise affect the rights and remedies available to the non-defaulting party in the event of a default or otherwise allowed by law or equity.
3.Authority
. If Tenant is an entity rather than a person, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of that entity or its constituents represents and warrants that he/she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of that entity. If Owner is an entity rather than a person, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of that entity or its constituents represents and warrants that he/she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of that entity.
4.Independent Obligations

Exhibit 10.36
. Each and every covenant and agreement contained in this Lease is, and will be construed to be, a separate and independent covenant and agreement, and the breach of any covenant or agreement by Owner will not discharge or relieve Tenant from its obligation to perform the same.
5.No Waiver or Accord
. Failure of Owner or Tenant to insist, in any one or more instances, upon strict performance of any term of this Lease, or to exercise any election herein contained, will not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment, but the same will continue and remain in full force and effect. No party will be deemed to have waived any provision of this Lease unless expressed in writing and signed. Tenant specifically acknowledges that, where Tenant has received a notice of default (whether monetary or non-monetary), no acceptance by Owner of Rent (other than Owner’s acceptance of full payment of all delinquent Rent) will be deemed a waiver of the default, and no acceptance by Owner of less than all delinquent Rent will be deemed to waive or cure any Rent default. Owner may, in its sole discretion, after receipt of partial payment of Rent, continue any pending action to collect the full amount of Rent due. The default will not be cured until Tenant pays the full amount due (in good funds). Payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner of a lesser amount than the Rent and other charges stipulated herein will be deemed to be on account of the earliest stipulated Rent or other charges. No endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any payment will be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner’s acceptance of the check or payment will be without prejudice to Owner’s right to recover the balance of the amount due or pursue any other remedy to which it is entitled.
6.Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability
. This Lease supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements; the provisions of this Lease are intended as the final expression of the parties’ agreement; this Lease constitutes the complete and exclusive statement of its terms; and no representations, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein will be of any force or effect. No provisions of this Lease may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by instrument in writing executed by Owner and Tenant, or their respective successors in interest, concurrently with or subsequent to the date of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that neither Owner nor anyone representing Owner has made statements of any kind whatsoever on which Tenant has relied in entering into this Lease. Tenant has relied solely on its independent investigation and its own business judgment in entering into this Lease. If any term or provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances will to any extent be invalid and unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of the term or provision to person or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, will not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease will be valid and will be enforced to the extent permitted by law.
7.Remedies Cumulative
. No right or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Owner or Tenant in this Lease is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy; and each and every right and remedy will be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy contained in this Lease.
8.Injunctive Relief
. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease, Owner and Tenant will be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief in case of the violation or attempted or threatened violation of any of the provisions of this Lease, or to specific performance of any of the provisions of this Lease.
9.Force Majeure
. Except as specifically provided otherwise herein, time periods for Owner’s or Tenant’s performance under any provisions of this Lease (except for the payment of money) will be extended for periods of time during which the non-performing party’s performance is prevented due to circumstances beyond the party’s control, including strikes, embargoes, governmental regulations, inclement weather and other acts of God, war or other strife and no delay in performance will constitute an actual or constructive eviction or entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent.
28
Exhibit 10.36
10.Successors and Assigns
. This Lease binds any party who legally acquires any rights or interest in this Lease from Owner or Tenant. However, Owner will have no obligations to Tenant’s successor unless the successor acquired its rights in accordance with the terms of this Lease, including obtaining Owner’s consent, if required under this Lease, to the Transfer by which such successor acquired its interest.
11.Consents
. Unless the same is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in bad faith, Owner and Tenant hereby waive any claim against the other party for money damages by reason of Owner’s or Tenant’s refusal, withholding or delaying its consent, approval or statement of satisfaction of any matter under this Lease, and in that event, affected party’s only remedies will be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment, to enforce any right to the consent. Owner and Tenant agree to exercise their rights and perform their obligations under this Lease reasonably and in good faith. Whenever the consent or approval of Owner or Tenant is required under the terms of this Lease, or Owner’s or Tenant’s consent or approval is otherwise requested by the other party, or where Owner or Tenant is given the right to exercise discretion with respect to a matter concerning the other party, then the applicable consent or approval must not be unreasonably withheld, exercised, or delayed, unless this Lease expressly provided that the party may withhold its consent or approval in the party’s sole discretion or sole judgment. Nothing contained in this Lease will limit the right of each party to exercise its business judgment, or act in a subjective manner, with respect to any matter as to which the party has the right to consent, approve, or act, in its sole discretion or sole judgment, whether “objectively” reasonable under the circumstances, and any exercise will not be deemed inconsistent with any covenant of good faith and fair dealing otherwise implied by law to be part of this Lease.
12.No Reservation/Counterparts
. The submission of this Lease for examination, or for execution by Tenant, does not constitute a reservation or option to lease the Premises and this Lease becomes effective as a lease only upon execution and delivery thereof by Owner and Tenant. This Lease may be executed in counterparts and when all counterparts are executed, the counterparts will constitute a single binding instrument
13.Choice of Law and Venue
. This Lease will be governed by the laws of the State of Idaho. Further, the parties agree that because the Premises and the subject of this Lease relate to real property located in Ada County, Idaho, venue will be proper in Ada County, Idaho. Owner and Tenant each unconditionally waive any right to a jury trial.
14.Costs and Attorneys’ Fees
. In the event of litigation between the parties hereto, declaratory or otherwise to enforce, interpret or seek redress of a breach of this Lease, the non-prevailing party will pay the costs thereof and attorneys’ fees actually incurred by the prevailing party, in the suit, at trial and on appeal. The prevailing party will be the party who is determined by the presiding authority to have substantially prevailed as to its central claim. In addition, if Owner engages counsel to enforce the terms of this Lease, including for the purpose of preparing a delinquency notice, Tenant will be required to reimburse Owner for all costs incurred before the subject default is considered cured.
15.Interpretation
. The captions of sections or subsections of this Lease are to assist the parties in reading this Lease and are not a part of the terms and provisions of this Lease. Whenever required by the context of this Lease, the singular will include the plural and the plural will include the singular. The words “will”, “shall” and “must” have the same meaning. The word “including” will be construed without limitation. The masculine, feminine and neuter genders will each include the other. The term “obligation” means “obligation, duty, agreement, liability, covenant or condition.” Business days refer to days that are not Saturdays, Sundays, federal banking holidays or holidays identified in Idaho Code Section 73-108.

18.Brokers
. Except as specified in the Basic Lease Terms, Owner and Tenant represent and warrant to each other that the party has not engaged any broker, finder or other person entitled to any commission or fee in respect of the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Lease, and each party will indemnify and defend the other against any claims for any commission arising out of agreements made or alleged to have been made by or on behalf of the indemnifying party.
