IT IS AGREED:
1. THE LEASED PREMISES; USE OF COMMON AREAS. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Lease and subject to all reasonable rules and regulations
prescribed by Lessor from time to time with respect to the operation of the
Center and its common areas, which Tenant shall observe, Lessor leases to Tenant
and Tenant rents of and from Lessor the premises as set forth on the Data Sheet
("leased premises") located in Signal Hills Shopping Center ("Center") which
Center is legally described on Exhibit "B," attached hereto and made a part
hereof, West St. Xxxx, Dakota County, Minnesota.
Additionally, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive use, in common with
Lessor, other tenants of the Center, others entitled to use the same, and their
respective agents, employees, contractors, invitees, and customers, of the
common areas.
2. ACCEPTANCE OF LEASED PREMISES. Tenant accepts the leased premises in
"as is" condition. Tenant, at its cost and expense and with no right of
reimbursement from Lessor, shall do all work and make all installations
necessary for Tenant's use and occupancy, subject to the provisions of Paragraph
30.
3. LESSOR'S PROPERTY; TENANT'S PROPERTY. Tenant acknowledges hereby that
all partitions erected in the leased premises; all improvements affixed to the
leased premises; all fixtures, other than movable trade fixtures of Tenant; and
all heating, air conditioning, plumbing and electrical equipment, pipes, wiring,
connections and fittings, which are necessary to the mechanical, plumbing and
electrical operation and maintenance of the leased premises, shall become
immediately and remain the property of Lessor, without compensation to Tenant,
whether owned by Lessor at the commencement of the term, subsequently purchased
or constructed by Lessor, or purchased or constructed by Tenant in accordance
with any of Tenant's obligations under the terms of this Lease.
Tenant, at its cost and expense, shall provide certain furniture, trade
fixtures and/or trade equipment necessary for Tenant's use and occupancy of the
leased premises. Notwithstanding the fact that such items may be attached to or
affixed to the realty, such furniture, movable trade fixtures and/or trade
equipment, and replacements thereof or additions thereto, as well as movable
furniture and other movable personal property put in at the expense of Tenant,
shall be the property of Tenant, and may be removed by Tenant at termination of
this Lease, provided, Tenant is not in default hereunder, and provided further,
the leased premises are restored as hereinafter set forth. All of the property
removable pursuant to this paragraph shall be removed on or before the last day
of the term hereof, or upon the earlier termination of the term, and all
property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant to Lessor. To the
extent Tenant's property is removed pursuant to this paragraph, Tenant, at its
cost and expense, shall repair any damage caused to the leased premises by such
removal. If Tenant chooses not to remove its property, Lessor may require
Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, to remove its property and restore the
leased premises to good condition and repair.
4. USE. Tenant, and no other person or entity, shall use the leased
premises solely for the purpose of conducting and operating the business as set
forth on the Data Sheet. Tenant shall continuously occupy and use the leased
premises during the term hereof for said purpose; provided, however, Tenant may
close for necessary repairs for a reasonable period of time, but without
abatement of rent unless specifically provided for herein. Tenant shall not
use, permit or suffer the use of, the leased premises for any other business
purpose. All uses not specifically granted herein are reserved to Lessor and
other tenants in the Center, but Tenant's use shall be non-exclusive.
In the event that the use of the leased premises increases the premium rate
for insurance carried by Lessor on the improvements of which the leased premises
are a part, Tenant shall pay Lessor, upon demand, the amount of such premium
increase.
5. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by
Lessor, Tenant shall conduct its business in the leased premises under the name
as set forth on the Data Sheet.
Tenant shall keep its display windows, exterior signs and exterior
advertising displays adequately illuminated during such hours as Lessor
determines reasonably to be necessary.
Tenant shall not use, occupy, suffer or permit any use of, the leased
premises which would (a) violate any law, ordinance, or regulation; provided,
however, Tenant shall have the right to contest the validity of any law,
ordinance or regulation adversely affecting its use of the leased premises,
but shall hold Lessor harmless from the consequences of violation of any such
law, ordinance or regulation; (b) constitute a nuisance; (c) constitute an
extra-hazardous use; or (d) violate, suspend or void any policy or policies
of insurance of either Lessor or any other tenant in the Center.
Tenant acknowledges that there are in effect federal, state, and local
laws, regulations and guidelines, and that additional and other laws,
regulations, and guidelines may hereafter be enacted or go into effect, relating
to or affecting the leased premises and/or the Center, and concerning the impact
on the environment and/or energy sources, construction, land use, the
maintenance and operation of structures, and the conduct of business. Tenant
shall not cause, or permit to be caused any act or practice, by negligence,
omission, or otherwise, that would adversely affect the environment, waste
energy, do anything or permit anything to be done that would violate any of said
laws, regulations, or guidelines. In the event of violation of this covenant,
Lessor, at its option, may treat such violation as an event of default
constituting a breach by Tenant of this Lease. Tenant shall have no claim
against Lessor by reason of any physical or operational changes Lessor may make
in the Center or the leased premises pursuant to said laws, regulations, and
guidelines.
As indicated in paragraph 1 hereof, the leasing to Tenant is subject to all
reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by Lessor from time to time with
respect to the leased premises, common areas and the operation of the Center,
and any part or parts thereof. Tenant shall abide by such rules and
regulations, which shall be uniformly applied, and shall cooperate in the
observance of such rules and regulations. The rules and regulations which are
effective as of the date of this Lease are set forth in Exhibit "C" attached
hereto and made a part hereof, and any amendments or additions thereto which may
be made from time to time shall be effective and become binding upon Tenant upon
delivery of a copy to Tenant of such rules and regulations and amendment or
additions thereto; provided, however, such amendments or additions shall not
impose a substantially greater burden upon Tenant, or materially restrict the
use of the leased premises as contemplated under the terms of this lease at its
inception.
6. TERM. The term of this Lease shall be as set forth on the Data Sheet.
If the leased premises are not available for occupancy on the commencement
date, the term shall commence on the date when the leased premises are available
for occupancy, or the date Tenant accepts occupancy of the leased premises,
whichever date first occurs ("extended commencement date"). Accordingly, the
termination date shall be extended to a date ("extended termination date") which
corresponds with the period elapsed between the commencement date and the
extended commencement date plus the number of the days remaining in that month
if said extended termination date is a date other than the last day of the
month. If Tenant is unable to occupy the leased premises at the commencement
date because the leased premises are not ready for occupancy or as a result of
any cause beyond the direct control of Lessor, Lessor shall not be liable in any
manner to Tenant; but during the period Tenant is unable to occupy the leased
premises, the rent and all other charges shall xxxxx.
"Lease year" shall mean in the case of the first lease year, that period
from the commencement date or extended commencement date to the first succeeding
January 31; thereafter, "lease year" shall mean each successive twelve (12)
calendar month period following the expiration of the first lease year, except
that in the event the termination date or extended termination date is any date
other than January 31, then the last lease year shall be the period from the end
of the preceding lease year to the termination date or extended termination
date.
7. HOLD-OVER TENANCY. If Tenant remains in possession of the leased
premises, without written consent of Lessor, after the expiration of the term of
this Lease, such holding over, if rent is accepted by Lessor for any period
after expiration of such term, shall create a tenancy from month to month, at a
rent equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the last monthly rent payable
hereunder, and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of this Lease, terminable
in accordance with Minnesota law governing month to month tenancies.
8. CONTINUANCE OF LEASE. If the use of the leased premises is prohibited
or prevented by any reason, other than herein provided for, at any time during
the term of this Lease, this Lease shall not be terminated thereby nor shall
Tenant be entitled by reason thereof to surrender the leased premises, or to any
abatement or reduction in rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Lessor
and Tenant be affected.
9. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Subject to Tenant's performance of all of its
obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have the peaceful and quiet use of
the leased premises for the permitted use set forth in the Data Sheet, without
hindrance on the part of Lessor, and Lessor shall defend Tenant in such peaceful
and quiet use against the lawful claims of all persons claiming by, through or
under Lessor, subject to any mortgage, agreement or encumbrance to which this
Lease is or may be subordinated.
10. MINIMUM GUARANTEED RENT. Tenant shall pay to Lessor as rent,
exclusive of any other charge provided for in this Lease to be paid by Tenant,

11. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
12. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
13. REQUIRED PAYMENTS ARE "RENT." In addition to minimum guaranteed rent
and all other payments required to be paid by Tenant under the provisions of
this Lease shall be deemed to be and shall become additional rent, whether or
not the same be designated as such; provided, however, all provisions dealing
with abatement of rent shall be construed to permit the abatement of minimum
guaranteed rent only and hereunder. All payments required to be paid by Tenant
under the provisions of this Lease shall bear interest at the greater of the
following rates, (subject to prevailing governmental regulations):
(i) two (2) points over the prime interest rate then charged by the FIRST
BANK/St. Xxxx to its preferred commercial customers on ninety (90) day unsecured
loans; (ii) or eighteen percent (18%) per annum at the time said payment shall
be due, commencing on the due date and continuing until the date actually paid
by TENANT. In addition to the above stated penalty a late penalty charge on all
payments paid after the fifth (5th) day of the calendar month in the amount of
five percent (5%) of the monthly rental due and payable on the first (1st) day
of the month shall become due and payable to Lessor.
14. UTILITIES. Tenant shall pay, as they become due and payable and
before they become delinquent, all charges for electricity, heat, air
conditioning, water, gas, fuel, telephone, sewage usage or rental, garbage
disposal, refuse removal, telephone and any other utility service furnished to
the leased premises during the term of this Lease.
If Lessor elects to furnish any of the foregoing utility services or other
services, Tenant shall purchase the same from Lessor, provided, the charge to
Tenant for such utility services or other services furnished or caused to be
furnished by Lessor shall not exceed the rate which Tenant would be required to
pay to a utility company of service company furnishing comparable services to
Tenant.
Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall provide and install all
lamps, tubes, bulbs, starters, ballasts, transformers and like items used or
required in the leased premises.
Tenant shall not make any alterations in or additions to the electrical
equipment and/or appliances in the leased premises without the prior written
consent of Lessor in each instance. Tenant's use of electrical current shall
not exceed at any time the capacity of the electric distribution system, and
Tenant shall not make any alteration or addition to the electric distribution
system without the prior written consent of Lessor in each instance. In the
event that at any time during the term of this Lease, Tenant desires to connect
or install any additional electric fixtures, equipment, or appliances to the
electric distribution system, and such fixtures, equipment or appliances require
additional electric current which, in combination with Tenant's existing
electrical requirements, exceed the capacity of the electric distribution
system, Lessor, upon written request of Tenant, shall install any additional
riser or risers and all other equipment necessary and proper in connection
therewith to supply Tenant's electric requirements, at the sole cost and expense
of Tenant, but only if such riser or risers and such other equipment, if any,
are necessary to supply Tenant with the electric current required by it, and
will not cause damage or injury to the leased premises or the Center, or cause
or create a dangerous or hazardous condition, or entail excessive or
unreasonable alterations, repairs, expense or interference with or disturbance
of other tenants or occupancy of the Center.
Lessor reserves the right to cut off and discontinue any or all utility
services in an emergency and/or when necessary to make repairs, but with as
little interruption to the business of Tenant as is reasonable under the
circumstances. No such action by Lessor shall be construed as an eviction, or
disturbance of possession, or as an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease,
nor shall such action by Lessor subject Lessor to any liability to Tenant or any
other person or entity. In no event shall Lessor be liable to Tenant or any
other person or entity for any loss, damage or expense which may be sustained
for any interruption or failure in the supply of such utilities caused by fire,
other casualty, accident, riot, strike, act of God, the making of necessary
repairs, or by any cause beyond Lessor's control.

service required in the leased premises.

subdivision thereof, a tax, charge or excise, however described, is levied or
assessed against Tenant's leasehold interest in this Lease or against the
fixtures, equipment, merchandise and other personal property located in, upon,
about or affixed to the leased premises, Tenant shall pay such tax, charge or
levy as it is due and payable, and before it becomes delinquent.
18. RENTAL TAXES. If at any time during the term of this Lease, under
federal or state law or any political subdivision thereof, a tax, charge,
capital levy or excise on rents (fixed, guaranteed or additional), or other tax
(except income tax), however described, shall be levied against Lessor on
account of the rent payable herein, such tax, charge, capital levy, or excise on
rents or other taxes shall be paid by Tenant, or reimbursed to Lessor by Tenant
if such tax, charge, capital levy, or excise on rents or other taxes is advanced
by Lessor, the choice to be at the option of Lessor. If the amounts required to
be paid pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph are payable monthly, such
amounts shall be paid by Tenant to Lessor in addition to the monthly rent
provided for herein. If the amounts required to be paid pursuant to the
provisions of this paragraph are payable annually, such shall be paid by Tenant
to Lessor annually on demand. A photostatic copy of the statement received for
such amounts shall be sufficient evidence of the amounts due and payable.
19. LICENSE FEES. Tenant shall pay, as they become due and payable and
before they become delinquent, all fees, charges and expenses required for
licenses and/or permits, if any, required for Tenant's permitted use of the
leased premises, as set forth in the Data Sheet, during the term of this Lease.
20. TENANT'S INSURANCE. Tenant shall obtain and keep in force, at
Tenant's expense, for the term of this Lease, and any extension or renewal
thereof, the following insurance:

issued by an insurance company legally authorized to do business in the State of
Minnesota; shall be in a form satisfactory to Lessor; and shall provide for at

damage to property in the leased premises, loss of use thereof, loss of
income and/or accounts receivable, including, cash or checks of Tenant held

insurance companies, waive any right of subrogation either may have against
the other where such waiver of subrogation is not invalidated by state law.
In the event the insurance premiums of Lessor are increased due to the
obtaining of such waiver of subrogation, Tenant shall reimburse Lessor for
the cost thereof forthwith upon receipt of a statement therefor from Lessor.

Tenant's leasehold estate; (f) any proceedings in obtaining possession of the
leased premises after the termination of this Lease by forfeiture or
otherwise; (g) any litigation commenced by or against Tenant to which Lessor

26. COMMON AREAS. "Common areas" shall consist of all parts of the
Center not under lease exclusively to Tenant hereunder or to other tenants,
including, but not limited to, parking areas, access roads and facilities,
driveways, sidewalks and other walkways, stairways, loading areas, malls (if
any), landscaped areas, and such other areas and improvements provided for
common use and benefit. Lessor and Tenant, and their customers, invitees,
officers, employees, agents, sublessees, licensees, concessionaires and
contractors, shall have common and non-exclusive rights to the use of said
common areas, subject, however, to Lessor's exclusive right to establish,
modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with respect to all
common areas and facilities; to construct, maintain and operate lighting
facilities on all said areas and improvements; to police the common areas;
from time to time to change the area, level, location and arrangement of
parking areas and other facilities; to restrict parking by tenants, their
officers, employees, agents, sublessees, licensees, concessionaires and
contractors to employee parking areas; to enforce parking charges, by
operation of meters or otherwise, with appropriate provisions for free
parking ticket validating by tenants; to close all or any portion of said
areas or facilities to such extent as may, in the opinion of Lessor's
counsel, be legally sufficient to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual
of any rights to any person or the public therein; to close temporarily all
or any portion of the parking areas or facilities; to discourage non-customer
parking; and to do and perform such other acts in and to said areas and
improvements as, in the use of good business judgment, Lessor shall determine
to be advisable with a view to the improvement of the convenience and use
thereof. Lessor shall operate and maintain the common areas and facilities in
such manner as Lessor, in its sole discretion, shall determine from time to
time. Without limiting the scope of such discretion, Lessor shall have the
full right and authority to employ all personnel and to make all rules and
regulations pertaining to and necessary for the proper operation and
maintenance of the common areas and facilities.
Lessor shall be responsible for repairs and maintenance of the common
areas, and lighting therefor, with payment of the expenses incident thereto as
hereinafter provided for.
27. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
28. SIGNS. Tenant shall provide, at its expense, during the term of this
Lease, a sign or signs the form of which shall be agreed to by Lessor and
Tenant, shall be harmonious to the general exterior architectural treatment of
the Center, and shall conform to sign criteria as set forth in Exhibit "D,"
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Drawings submitted for approval by
Lessor shall clearly show graphic, construction and attachment details, and
electrical load requirements. The cost of installing, maintaining, changing and
removing all signs shall be borne by Tenant. Tenant shall keep its display
windows, exterior signs and exterior advertising displays adequately illuminated
during such hours as Lessor determines reasonably to be necessary. Upon
commencement of the term of this Lease, with said sign or signs in place, Tenant
shall not erect, install, place or cause to be erected, installed or placed, any
additional signs, awnings; canopies, lettering, placards, decorations or
advertising media of any type on the exterior of the leased premises without
obtaining, on each occasion, the prior written consent of Lessor. The consent
of Lessor as to signs shall not be withheld unreasonably, provided, that any
such sign shall conform to the sign criteria, any and all governmental rules,
regulations, ordinances, laws with respect to same, and shall not be
distasteful, defacing, unfit, or affect the structural strength of the leaded
premises or the building of which they are a part. Tenant shall have no right
to erect any sign of any kind or nature which advertises a business or product
other than Tenant's. Tenant shall not erect, install, place or cause to be
erected, installed, or place any lettering, placards, decorations or advertising
media of any type in the windows of the leased premises which Lessor, in its
sole opinion, considers to be distasteful or defacing, and Tenant, if so
requested by
Lessor, shall remove forthwith such material from the windows of the leased
premises. All signs, and all materials placed in the windows of the leased
premises, shall be maintained in such a manner so as to be sightly and in
good condition and repair.
29. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. During the term of this Lease, Lessor, at
Lessor's cost and expense, shall keep and maintain in good order, condition and
repair, the foundation, exterior walls (except store fronts, plate glass or
other breakable materials used in structural portions) and structural part of
the floor. Lessor shall have no obligation to paint or decorate said foundation
or exterior walls. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, any damage to
any of the foregoing caused by any act or negligence of Tenant, its employees,
agents, invitees, licensees or contractors shall be repaired or replaced
promptly by Tenant.
During the term of this Lease, Tenant, at Tenant's cost and expense, shall
keep and maintain in good order, condition and repair, including, reasonable
periodic painting and decorating, and including replacement as required, the
leased premises and every part thereof (except as specifically provided for in
this Paragraph 29 to be Lessor's obligation) including, but not limited to: the
exterior and interior portions of all doors, glass and glass windows; all
mechanical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, ventilating and electrical
equipment and systems within, affixed (roof mounted, or otherwise) to, or
serving the leased premises; interior walls, partitions; floors and ceilings;
signs of Tenant; and all fixtures, appliances and equipment furnished by Lessor,
if any.
30. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS. Tenant, at its cost and expense and
with no right of reimbursement from Lessor, may make alterations, additions, and
improvements to the leased premises to better adapt the leased premises to its
use and occupancy; provided, however, on each occasion, any such alteration,
addition, or improvement shall: (i) equal or exceed the then current standard
for the Center, utilizing only new and first-grade materials; (ii) be in
conformity with all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances,
regulations, building codes, fire regulations, and insurance requirements of
Lessor and Tenant; (iii) be made only with the prior written consent of Lessor,
and as a condition to such consent, Lessor may require agreement by Tenant to
remove such alterations, additions, and/or improvements at the time of
termination of this Lease, and restore the leased premises to their condition
prior to the installation of such alterations, additions, and/or improvements,
and otherwise, in good condition and repair, subject to reasonable wear and
tear; (iv) be made pursuant to such plans and specifications as may be required
by Lessor, and upon obtaining any required permits and licenses; (v) be
conditioned upon providing to Lessor, at Lessor's option, a letter of credit,
performance bond or other indemnification in such form and amount as may be
satisfactory to Lessor to protect against liens for labor to be performed and
materials to be furnished; and (vi) be carried out only by persons or entities
selected by Tenant and approved in writing by Lessor, who, if required by
Lessor, shall deliver to Lessor before commencement of the work proof of such
workmen's compensation, comprehensive general liability, and builder's risk
insurance as Lessor may require, with Lessor named as an additional insured, in
amounts, with companies, and in form satisfactory to Lessor, which insurance
shall remain in effect during the entire period during which such alteration,
addition, or improvement will be accomplished. Any such alteration, addition,
or improvement shall be done only at such time and in such manner as Lessor may
designate from time to time. Tenant shall promptly pay the cost of any such
change, addition, or improvement. Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish Lessor
with contractors' affidavits and full and final waivers of liens. Tenant shall
indemnify Lessor for, and hold Lessor harmless forever from, any and all claims
and liabilities of any kind and description which may arise out of or be
connected in any way with any such alteration, addition, or improvement;
provided, however, Tenant shall have no obligation to indemnify Lessor for the
negligence or intentional act of Lessor, its agents, employees, or contractors.
Any increase in property taxes on, or insurance for, the Building attributable
to such change, addition, or improvement shall be borne by Tenant, and paid by
Tenant to Lessor within thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of Lessor's
invoice therefor, accompanied by appropriate evidence thereof. Subject to the
provisions of agreement, if any, pursuant to (iii) above, all such alterations,
additions, and/or improvements shall remain in or upon and be surrendered with
the leased premises at the termination of this Lease, with the exception of
furniture, movable trade fixtures, and/or trade equipment, and other movable
personal property put in at the expense of Tenant, which items shall remain the
property of Tenant.
31. MECHANICS LIENS. Tenant shall pay timely for labor and material
furnished to Tenant or claimed to have been furnished to Tenant in connection
with work of any character performed or claimed to have
been performed on the leased premises, at the direction or with the consent
of Tenant, whether such work was performed or materials furnished before or
after the commencement of the term of this Lease. Tenant shall not permit
any mechanics or similar liens to remain upon the leased premises incident to
the foregoing. However, Tenant may contest the validity of such lien or
claim, provided, Tenant shall give to Lessor such security as Lessor may
require reasonably to insure payment and to prevent any sale, foreclosure or
forfeiture of the leased premises by reason of such non-payment. Upon a
final determination of the validity of any such lien or claim, Tenant shall
immediately pay any judgment or decree rendered against Tenant or Lessor,
including, but not limited to, all proper costs and charges, and shall cause
such lien to be released of record without costs to Lessor.
32. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO INSPECT AND REPAIR. Lessor, or its agents, shall
have the right to inspect any part of the leased premises at any reasonable
time. Tenant shall make any repairs, which in Lessor's reasonable opinion, are
necessary for the protection, preservation and maintenance of the leased
premises or any part thereof, other than those repairs which are Lessor's
responsibility pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. If Tenant fails to
commence such repairs promptly and adequately and/or fails to proceed diligently
to completion, Lessor, at its option, may make such repairs, and any
expenditures made in connection with such work shall be due and payable from
Tenant upon, demand, plus an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of such
expenditures for overhead and supervision.
33. CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES AND LESSOR'S PROPERTY AT TERMINATION. At
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall quit and deliver the leased premises,
all partitions, improvements, alterations and other property of Lessor to Lessor
in good condition and repair. If Tenant fails to deliver the leased premises,
and Lessor's property to Lessor in good condition and repair, Lessor, at its
option, may make such repairs, and any expenditures made in connection with such
work shall be due and payable from Tenant upon demand, plus an amount equal to
fifteen percent (15%) of such expenditures for overhead and supervision.
34. DAMAGE BY FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY. In the event of any damage caused
to the leased premises by fire or other casualty, if capable of accomplishment,
Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Lessor, or if not capable of
accomplishment, as soon thereafter as is reasonable under the circumstances. If
Tenant does not so notify Lessor, Tenant shall be liable for all consequential
damages directly or indirectly resulting from its failure to so notify Lessor,
in addition to every other right and remedy which Lessor may have pursuant to
this Lease, at law or in equity.
In the event the leased premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty
to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or less of the cost of replacement of the
leased premises, and such damage is covered by Lessor's insurance, and can be
repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the happening of
the event causing the damage, Lessor shall cause the damage to be repaired, at
its expense; provided, however, in the event such damage occurs during the last
two (2) years of the term of this Lease, Lessor shall have no obligation to
cause the damage to be repaired.
In the event the leased premises shall be damaged by fire or other
casualty, and such fire or other casualty shall not be covered by Lessor's
insurance, or the leased premises shall be damaged to the extent of more than
fifty percent (50%) of the cost of replacement of the leased premises, or cannot
be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the happening
of the event causing the damage but can be repaired within two hundred seventy
(270) days after the date of the happening of the event causing the damage, then
in any of such events, Lessor may elect either to repair or rebuild the leased
premises or to cancel this Lease, either of such elections to be made by the
giving of written notice to such effect by Lessor to Tenant within sixty (60)
days after the date of the happening of the event causing the damage. In the
event Lessor gives Tenant written notice of its intention to repair or rebuild,
then this Lease shall remain in force and effect. In the event Lessor does not
give Tenant written notice of its intention to repair or rebuild or cancel this
Lease within said sixty (60) days, this Lease may be cancelled at the option of
either Lessor or Tenant by written notice by either party to the other within
thirty (30) days after the expiration of Lessor's sixty (60) days' notice
period. Cancellation, if appropriately elected, shall be effective as of the
date when the damage occurred.
In the event fifty percent (50%) or more of the building(s) constituting
the Center of which the leased premises are a part shall be damaged by fire or
other casualty, regardless of whether or not the leased premises are affected,
and such fire or other casualty shall not be covered by Lessor's insurance, or
such damage cannot be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days after the
date of the happening of the event causing the damage, then in any of such
events, Lessor may elect either to repair or rebuild said building or to cancel
this Lease, either of such elections to be made by the giving of written notice
to such effect by Lessor to Tenant within ninety (90) days after the date of the
happening of the event causing the damage. In the event Lessor shall give
written notice to Tenant of its election either to repair or rebuild, then this
Lease shall remain in force and effect. In the event Lessor does not give
written notice to Tenant of its election either to repair or to rebuild or to
terminate this Lease within said ninety (90) days, this Lease may be cancelled
at the option of either Lessor or Tenant by written notice by either party to
the other within thirty (30) days after the expiration of Lessor's ninety (90)
days' notice period. Cancellation, if appropriately elected, shall be effective
as of the date when the damage occurred.
As promptly as is practicable after such fire or other casualty and during
any period of repair or reconstruction of the leased premises, Tenant shall
continue the operation of its business within the leased premises to the extent
practicable. If the fire or other casualty, repairing or rebuilding shall
render the leased premises untenantable, in whole or in part, a proportionate
abatement of the rent shall be allowed from the date of the happening of the
event causing the damage until the date Lessor completes the repairs or
rebuilding, or, in the event of cancellation, until the effective date of such
cancellation, said proportionate abatement to be computed on the basis of the
relation which the square foot area of the space in the leased premises rendered
untenantable bears to the total square foot area of the leased premises.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to permit the abatement, in whole
or in part, or the other charges provided for in this Lease.
In the event Lessor is obligated, or exercises its election to repair,
restore or replace the improvements, it shall proceed with due diligence, and at
its sole cost and expense, to make such repairs, restoration or replacement in
such manner as to approximate original condition, reasonable wear and tear
excepted, excluding therefrom improvements or betterments to the lease premises
constructed or installed by Tenant or at Tenant's direction. In determining
"due diligence," consideration shall be given to fire and other casualties,
governmental restrictions and regulations, strikes, lock-outs, construction
delays beyond the control of Lessor, and acts of God. In no event shall Lessor
be required to repair, restore or replace the items hereinafter set forth to be
repaired, restored, or replaced by Tenant. In the event Lessor is required or
elects to repair, restore, or replace the improvements, Tenant shall proceed
with due diligence, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to repair, restore or
replace improvements or betterments to the leased premises constructed or
installed by Tenant or at Tenant's direction, its stock-in-trade, fixtures,
furniture, furnishings, equipment, other personal property and signs. Lessor
shall not be responsible for, nor liable to, Tenant for any damages whatsoever
caused by any damage or destruction to the leased premises, nor for any delay in
repairing, restoring or replacing, nor for inability to repair, restore, or
replace, nor for any other cause whatsoever beyond Lessor's control. All
property of Tenant and all property kept, stored or maintained in or upon the
leased premises, adjacent sidewalks, loading areas or other common areas shall
be at the sole risk of Tenant.
35. EMINENT DOMAIN. If the leased premises, or such portion thereof as to
render the balance unsuitable for the use of Tenant, as set forth on the Data
Sheet, shall be taken by condemnation or the right of eminent domain or by
private sale in lieu thereof to the potential condemning authority, either party
shall be entitled to terminate this Lease upon written notice to the other
within thirty (30) days after Tenant has been deprived of possession by such
taking or sale. If any portion of the leased premises is so taken or sold and
if this Lease is not terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof, Lessor
shall proceed to restore and rebuild the remaining portion thereof so as to make
an architecturally complete unit as diligently as is practicable, and in such
event, a proportionate reduction of the minimum guaranteed rent and reduction of
Tenant's proportionate share pursuant to paragraphs 16 and 27 shall be allowed
from the appropriate date, said proportionate reduction to be computed on the
basis of the relation which the square foot area in the leased premises so taken
bears to the total square foot area of the leased premises. Nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to permit the abatement or reduction, in whole or
in part, of the percentage rent, or any other charges provided for in this
Lease, but for the purpose of paragraph 11, the computation of percentage rent
shall be based upon the revised minimum rent as the same may be reduced pursuant
to this paragraph.
In the event fifty percent (50%) or more of the building of which the
leased premises are a part shall be taken by condemnation or the right of
eminent domain or by private sale in lieu thereof to the potential condemning
authority, either party shall be entitled to terminate this Lease upon written
notice to the other on or before the date possession is to be surrendered to the
public or quasi-public authority, such termination to be effective as of the
date of surrender of possession.
Tenant shall have the right to make its claim for its unamortized cost of
leasehold improvements to the extent paid for by Tenant, its fixtures and moving
expenses, all to the extent such damages are allowable; provided, any award
therefor can be made separately to Tenant without diminution of any award to be
made to Lessor. Other than the foregoing, Tenant shall not be entitled to
claim, or have paid to Tenant, any compensation or damages whatsoever for or on
account of any loss, injury, damages or taking of any right, interest or estate
of Tenant, and Tenant hereby relinquishes and hereby assigns to Lessor any
rights to any damages. Subject to the foregoing, Lessor shall be entitled to
claim and have paid to it for the use and benefit of Lessor all compensation and
damages for and on account of or arising out of such taking or condemnation,
without deduction from the amount thereof for and on account of any right,
title, interest or estate of Tenant in or to the leased premises or matter
relating thereto. Tenant, upon request of Lessor, shall execute any and all
releases or other documents as shall be required by such public or quasi-public
authority in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. In the event
Tenant fails to execute and deliver said releases or other document within ten
(10) days after said request, Tenant hereby appoints Lessor irrevocably as the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver said releases or other
documents.
36. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE BY TENANT. Tenant may not, voluntarily or by
operation of law, assign or transfer this Lease, or sublease the whole or any
part of the leased premises, or allow the whole or any part of the leased
premises to be used or occupied by any other person or entity, without the prior
written consent or Lessor. If Tenant is a corporation, then any transfer of
this Lease by merger, consolidation or liquidation, or any change in ownership
of the shares of voting stock so as to result in a change of the present
effective voting control of Tenant by the person, persons and/or entity owning a
majority of said shares on the date of this Lease, shall constitute an
assignment of this Lease, and, as such, shall require the prior written consent
of Lessor. The prior written consent of Lessor shall not be withheld
unreasonably, but only if all of the following conditions are met: (a) proposed
assignee or sublessee is financially responsible; (b) Tenant and any guarantors
obligations pursuant to the Lease; (c) the minimum guaranteed annual rent,
effective as of the effective date of such assignment or subleasing, shall
become forthwith the greater of the following: the minimum guaranteed annual
rent then applicable, or an amount equal to the average of the rent, including
percentage rent, payable for the last two (2) lease years (or shorter period, if
so required) immediately prior to the lease year of the proposed assigning or
subleasing; and (d) the use of the leased premises remains the same as set forth
on the Data Sheet, and does not conflict with an exclusive that Lessor might
have granted since the date of this Lease. The foregoing to the contrary
notwithstanding, Lessor shall have a period of sixty (60) days after notice by
Tenant of the proposed assigning or subleasing to elect to terminate and cancel
this Lease without further liability to Tenant.
37. SALE BY LESSOR; NOVATION. Lessor shall have the right to exhibit the
leased premises to prospective purchasers, and the right to sell or transfer the
leased premises subject to all provisions of this Lease. In the event of the
sale of the leased premises, Lessor shall be and hereby is relieved of all of
the covenants and obligations created hereby other than obligations arising for
the period prior to, the date of sale, and as to which Lessor has received
notice from Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant has been notified of
such sale. Such sale shall result automatically in the purchaser assuming and
agreeing to carry out all the covenants and obligations of Lessor herein.
38. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE. Tenant agrees that
this Lease is, and shall be, subordinate or superior, at the option of Lessor,
to any mortgage, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements, and extensions thereof, to the full extent of the principal sum
secured thereby and interest thereon, to the extent such mortgage affects the
leased premises or the Center; and that such subordination or superiority,
depending on Lessor's election from time to time, shall be effective without any
further act by Tenant. Tenant further agrees that it will attorn to and
recognize any purchaser at a foreclosure sale of such mortgage, or any
transferee who acquires the leased premises by deed in lieu of foreclosure, and
the successors and assigns of such purchasers, as its Lessor for the unexpired
balance of the term of this Lease and extensions, if any.
Tenant further agrees that in the event that a mortgagee shall succeed to the
interest of Lessor under this Lease, such mortgagee shall not be: liable for
any act or omission of any prior lessor, including Lessor; liable for the
return of any security deposit; subject to any off-sets or defenses which
Tenant may have against any prior lessor, including Lessor; bound by any rent
or additional rent which Tenant may have paid for more than the current month
to any prior lessor, including Lessor; bound by any amendment or modification
of this Lease made without its consent. Tenant further agrees to execute any
and all further documents or instruments in addition to this Lease which may
be deemed necessary requisite or desired to effectuate said subordination and
attornment. The agreements and obligations of Tenant as set forth in this
paragraph are undertaken by Tenant with the express understanding for the
benefit of Tenant that in the event of foreclosure of any mortgage covering
the leased premises or the Center, or acquisition thereof by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, the mortgagee, its successors and assigns, will not terminate
this Lease, nor join Tenant in summary or foreclosure proceedings, provided,
Tenant shall continue to perform all of the covenants and conditions of this
Lease and shall not be in default hereunder.
39. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Within ten (10) days after request therefor by
Lessor, or in the event that upon any sale, assignment, financing or
hypothecation of the leased premises or the Center by Lessor, an Estoppel
Certificate shall be required from Tenant, Tenant agrees hereby to deliver in
recordable form an Estoppel Certificate to any proposed mortgagee, lender or
purchaser, or to Lessor, agreeing to and/or certifying as follows:
(a) that this Lease is in full force and effect, and has not been
assigned, modified, supplemented or amended in anyway (or if there has
been any assignment, modification, supplement or amendment,
identifying the same);
(b) that this Lease represents the entire agreement between Lessor and
Tenant as to the subject matter hereof (or if there has been any
assignment, modification, supplement, or amendment, identifying the
same);
(c) that Tenant has entered into occupancy of the leased premises, and the
date of such entry if such is the case;
(d) the commencement date and termination date of the term or terms, if
determinable at the time;
(e) that all conditions under this Lease to be performed by Lessor have
been satisfied and all required contributions, if any, by Lessor to
Tenant on account of Tenant's improvements have been received (and if
not, what conditions remain unperformed);
(f) that to the knowledge of the signer of such Estoppel Certificate, no
default exists in the performance or observance of any covenant or
condition in this Lease and that there are no defenses or offsets
against the enforcement of this Lease by Lessor, or specifying in
reasonable detail such default, defense or offset of which the signer
may have knowledge;
(g) the amount of minimum guaranteed annual rent, and any information
reasonably requested as to percentage rent and any other charges to be
paid by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of the Lease;
(h) that Tenant has no charge, lien or claim of offset under the Lease, or
otherwise, against rent or charges due or to become due thereunder, or
stating those claimed by Tenant;
(i) if such be the case, that rent payable under this Lease has not been
paid more than thirty (30) days in advance of the next due date, and
that Tenant will not pay any rent more than thirty (30) days in
advance of any due date, with the exception of any security deposit,
in which case Tenant will state the amount of such security deposit;
(j) that if Tenant is provided appropriate evidence of a duly recorded
mortgage encumbering the leased premises or the Center by the,
mortgagee named the therein, its successors or assigns ("mortgagee"),
Tenant will not consent to the modification of any material provision
of this Lease, and will not seek to terminate this Lease by reason of
any act or omission of Lessor, until Tenant shall have given written
notice of such act, or omission to such mortgagee and until ninety
(90) days shall have elapsed following the giving of such notice,
during which period such mortgagee shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to remedy such act or omission; and
(k) that in the event such mortgagee or any purchaser at a foreclosure
sale acquires title to the leased premises pursuant to the exercise of
any remedy provided for in said duly recorded mortgage, Tenant will
attorn to such mortgagee, or to such other purchaser, as its new
landlord and that this Lease shall continue in full force and effect
as a direct Lease between Tenant and such mortgage or such other
purchaser, upon the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements set
forth herein; provided, however, such mortgagee, or such other
purchaser, shall not be liable to Tenant for any act or omission of
Lessor.
40. REMEDIES OF LESSOR. In the event that during the term of this Lease
(regardless of the pendency of any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership,
insolvency or other proceedings, in law, in equity, or before any administrative
tribunal, which has prevented or might prevent compliance by Tenant with the
terms of this Lease):
(a) Tenant shall have failed to pay any installment of rent or any other
charge provided herein, or any portion thereof when the same shall be
due and payable, and the same shall remain unpaid for a period of ten
(10) days after written notice thereof;
(b) Tenant shall have failed to comply with any other provisions of this
Lease and shall not cure such failure within ten (10) days after
Lessor, by written notice, has informed Tenant of such non-compliance;
provided, however, in the case of a default other than payment, which
cannot, with due diligence, be cured within a period of ten (10) days,
Tenant shall have such additional time to cure such default as may
reasonably be necessary, but in no event in excess of sixty (60) days,
provided, Tenant proceeds promptly and with due diligence to cure such
default after receipt of said notice; or
(c) Tenant, or its guarantor, if any, shall become insolvent or unable to
pay its debts as they mature, or suspends business or commences
proceedings under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency, or readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation laws,
either of the United States or any state thereof; or
(d) if any such proceedings as set forth in subparagraph (c) of this
paragraph 40 shall be commenced against Tenant, or its guarantor, if
any, and that entity or individual consents thereto, or does not take
affirmative action to have the proceedings dismissed within ten (10)
days, or such proceeding remains undismissed for thirty (30) days, or
an order is entered in any proceeding adjudicating Tenant, or its
guarantor, if any, a bankrupt or insolvent or approving the petition
in such proceeding; or
(e) Tenant, or its guarantor, if any, makes an assignment for the benefit
of creditors, or a receiver or trustee is appointed for Tenant, or its
guarantor, if any, or for any substantial part of a property of
Tenant, or its guarantor, if any; or
(f) Tenant shall have ceased to conduct its normal business operations in
the leased premises, or shall vacate or abandon the leased premises
and leave the same vacated or abandoned for a period of ten (10) days,
excepting vacation or abandonment due to fire or other casualty, or
repairs or improvements by Lessor which necessitate such vacation or
abandonment; or
(g) Tenant shall do or permit to be done anything which creates a lien
upon the leased premises; provided, however, this subparagraph shall
be subject to the provisions of paragraph 31;
then Lessor upon five (5) days' written notice to Tenant may elect either (i) to
cancel and terminate this Lease and this Lease shall not be treated as an asset
of Tenant's estate, or (ii) to terminate Tenant's right to possession only
without cancelling and terminating this Lease. Notwithstanding the fact that
initially Lessor elects under (ii) to terminate Tenant's right to possession
only, Lessor shall have the continuing right to cancel and terminate this Lease
by serving five (5) days' written notice on Tenant of such further election, and
shall have the right to pursue any remedy at law or in equity that may be
available to Lessor.
In the event of election under (ii) to terminate Tenant's right to possession
only, Lessor may, at Lessor's option, enter into the leased 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 obligation to pay
the rent hereunder for the full stated term. Upon such reentry, Lessor may
remove all persons and property from the leased 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 or damage which may
be occasioned thereby. Such re-entry shall be conducted in the following
manner: without resort to judicial process or notice of any kind in the
situation where Tenant has abandoned or voluntarily surrendered possession of
the leased premises; and, otherwise, by resort to judicial process. Upon and
after entry into possession without termination of the Lease, Lessor shall use
its best efforts to relet the premises, or any part thereof, for the account of
Tenant, to any person, firm or corporation, other than Tenant, for such rent,
for such time and upon such terms as Lessor, in Lessor's sole discretion, shall
determine, but Lessor shall not be required to accept any tenant offered by
Tenant or to observe any instruction given by Tenant about such reletting.
Lessor may make alterations and repairs, and redecorate the leased premises to
the extent deemed by Lessor necessary or desirable.
Upon such re-entry, Tenant shall be liable to Lessor as follows:
(a) for the unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid sums which were
due prior to such re-entry, which sums shall be payable forthwith;
(b) for the installments of rent and other sums falling due pursuant to
the provisions of this Lease for the periods after re-entry during
which the leased premises remain vacant, which sums shall be payable
as they become due hereunder;
(c) for all expenses, including commissions, attorneys' fees, costs of
alterations, repairs and redecorating, which shall be payable as they
are incurred; and
(d) while the leased premises are subject to any new lease or leases made
pursuant to this paragraph, 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.
No such re-entry or taking possession of the leased premises by Lessor shall be
construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written
notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be
decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding Lessor's election
to terminate Tenant's right to possession only, and notwithstanding any
reletting without termination, Lessor, at any time thereafter, may elect to
terminate this Lease, and to recover, in lieu of the amounts which would
thereafter be payable pursuant to the foregoing, as damages for loss of the
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 the entire amount of unpaid minimum guaranteed rent and all
additional charges which would have been payable by Tenant hereunder for the
unexpired portion of the term, which deficiency and all expenses incident
thereto, including commissions, attorney's fees, expenses of alterations,
repairs and redecorating, shall be due to Lessor as of the time Lessor exercises
said election, notwithstanding that the term has not expired; and if Lessor,
after such reentry, leases said
leased premises, then the rent payable under such new lease shall be
conclusive evidence of the rental value of said unexpired portion of said
term.
If this Lease shall be terminated by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of
Tenant, Lessor shall be entitled, notwithstanding any other provision of this
Lease or any present or future law, to recover from Tenant or Tenant's estate,
in lieu of the equivalent of the amount of all minimum guaranteed rent and all
other charges payable hereunder, as damages for loss of the bargain and not as a
penalty, an aggregate sum which, at the time of such termination of this Lease,
represents the then present worth of the excess, if any, of the aggregate of the
minimum guaranteed rent and all other charges payable pursuant to the provisions
of this Lease over the aggregate rental value of the leased premises for the
balance of the term, unless any statute or rule of law governing the proceedings
in which such damages are to be proved shall limit the amount of such claim
capable of being so proved, in which case, Lessor shall be entitled to prove, as
and for liquidated damages, by reason of such breach and termination of this
Lease, the maximum amount which may be allowed by or under such statute or rule
of law. Nothing contained herein shall limit or prejudice Lessor's right to
prove and obtain as liquidated damages arising out of such breach or termination
the maximum amount allowed by any such statute or rule of law which may govern
the proceedings in which such damages are to be proved whether or not such
amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the excess of all
charges over the rental value referred to above.
If Lessor shall at any time be entitled to rent under this Lease pursuant
to any of the covenants, conditions or agreements of this Lease either (i) after
the termination of this Lease, or (ii) after termination of Tenant's right to
possession without termination of this Lease, Lessor shall recover and Tenant
agrees to pay the minimum guaranteed rent, the percentage rent and any other
charges as provided for in this Lease. For the purpose of determining the
percentage rent, in either case, such rent shall be computed pro rata on the
basis of the average sales for the twenty-four (24) months immediately preceding
the occurrence of either such event of default or for the expired portion of
this Lease, whichever period is shorter.
If Tenant shall default in the performance of any covenant required to be
performed by it under this Lease, taking into consideration the grace periods
provided in paragraphs 40(a) and 40(b), Lessor may perform the same for the
account and at the expense of Tenant, upon giving notice to Tenant of its
intention to do so. If Lessor at any time is compelled to pay, or elects to
pay, any sum of money by reason of the failure of Tenant to comply with any
provision of this Lease, or if Lessor is compelled to incur any expense,
including, reasonable attorney's fees, in instituting, prosecuting or defending
any action or proceeding instituted by reason of any default of Tenant
hereunder, the sum or sums so paid by Lessor shall be due from Tenant to Lessor
on the next date following the payment of such sums upon which a regular monthly
rental payment is due, together with interest, at a rate which is the lesser of
the maximum allowable legal rate or eighteen percent (18%) per annum, from the
respective dates of each such payment. In addition, in the event Lessor
performs construction work on behalf of Tenant, which is Tenant's obligation
pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, Lessor shall be entitled to an amount
equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the amount of the costs and expenses of such
construction as payment to Lessor for overhead and supervision, in addition to
the costs and expenses of such construction.
No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lessor is intended
to be exclusive of any other right or remedy herein or by law provided, but each
shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given herein
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
41. RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. In addition to all other rights of Lessor and
not in limitation thereof, Lessor expressly reserves the right to use the
outside walls and roof of the leased premises, and the air space above the
leased premises; the right to install, maintain, use, repair and replace the
pipes, ducts, conduits and wires leading through the leased premises in a manner
which will not materially interfere with Tenant's use thereof; and the right,
when so requested by any occupant in the Center, at any time to adjust the space
occupied by said occupant to its business requirements, and in connection
therewith without any other tenant's consent, to enlarge, expand or contract the
physical space occupied by such occupant, and when so requested by any occupant,
without this Tenant's consent and without restriction, to move or relocate said
occupant within the Center as such occupant's interest may require. Tenant's
premises shall not be enlarged, expanded, contracted, moved or relocated without
Tenant's express written consent.
Lessor and its agents shall have the right during the term of this Lease to
exhibit the leased premises to prospective purchasers. In addition, Lessor and
its agents shall have the right, during the last three (3) months of the term of
this Lease to place and maintain on the exterior walls of the leased premises
and in the windows thereof reasonable signs advertising the availability of the
leased premises to prospective tenants. The provisions of this paragraph shall
impose no duty or obligation on Lessor contrary to or other than those contained
in the other paragraphs of this Lease.
42. LENDER REQUIREMENTS. If at any time prior to the commencement of the
term of this Lease, Lessor notifies Tenant that a lending institution lending
funds to Lessor in connection with the Center requires a change or changes in
this Lease as a condition of such financing, Tenant agrees, at the request of
Lessor, to promptly execute and deliver to Lessor an amendment to this Lease
incorporating such required changes, provided, that such changes do not change
the financial obligations of Tenant, the location or the size of the leased
premises or the building of which the leased premises are a part or the parking
area, the term of this Lease, construction work (if any) to be performed by
Lessor, or involve any other substantial changes which materially alter the
rights or remedies of Tenant under this Lease.
43. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be
deemed or construed by the parties hereto or by a third party to create the
relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of joint venture or of
any association whatsoever between Lessor and Tenant, it being expressly
understood and agreed that neither the method of computation of rent nor any
other provisions contained in this Lease nor any act or acts of the parties
hereto shall be deemed to create any relationship between Lessor and Tenant
other than the relationship of Lessor and Tenant.
44. SHORT FORM LEASE. Tenant shall not record this Lease without the
written consent of Lessor; however, upon the request of either party hereto, the
other party shall join in the execution of a memorandum or so-called "short
form" of this Lease for the purposes of recordation. Said memorandum or short
form of this Lease shall describe the parties, the leased premises, the term of
this Lease, any special provisions, and shall incorporate this Lease by
reference. Any fees required to be paid in order to record such memorandum or
short form of this Lease shall be paid by the party desiring to record such
memorandum or short form of this Lease.
45. NOTICES; PAYMENTS. Each provision of this Lease or of any applicable
governmental law, ordinance, regulation, or other requirements with reference to
the sending, mailing or delivery of any notice or the making of any payment
shall be deemed to be complied with when and if the following steps are taken:
(a) all rent and other payments required to be made by Tenant or Guarantor
to Lessor hereunder shall be payable to Lessor at the address
hereinbelow set forth, or at such other address as Lessor may specify
from time to time by written notice delivered in accordance herewith;

parties hereto at the respective addresses set out below, or at such
other addresses as they have theretofore specified by written notice
in accordance herewith:

(d) All parties included within the terms "Lessor," "Tenant" and
"Guarantor" respectively, shall be bound by notices given in
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 45 as if each had
received such notice.
46. IMPORTANCE OF EACH COVENANT. Each covenant and agreement on the part
of one party is understood and agreed to constitute an essential part of the
consideration for each covenant and agreement on the part of the other party.
47. WAIVER. The receipt of rent by Lessor with knowledge of any breach of
this Lease by Tenant or of any default on the part of Tenant in the observance
of performance of any of the obligations or covenants of this Lease shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any provisions of this Lease. No failure on the part
of Lessor to enforce any obligation or covenant herein contained, nor any waiver
of any right hereunder by Lessor, unless in writing, shall discharge or
invalidate such obligation or covenant or affect the right of Lessor to enforce
the same in the event of any subsequent breach or default.
The receipt by Lessor of any rent or other sums of money or other
consideration paid by Tenant after the termination, in any manner, of Tenant's
right of possession or of this Lease, or after giving by Lessor of any notice
hereunder to effect such termination, shall not reinstate, continue or extend
the term hereof, or Tenant's right of possession, or in any manner impair the
efficacy of any such notice of termination as may have been given hereunder by
Lessor to Tenant prior to the receipt of any such sum of money or other
consideration, unless so agreed to in writing and signed by Lessor. Neither the
acceptance of keys nor any similar act or thing done by Lessor during the term
of this Lease shall be deemed to be a release of Tenant from its obligations
hereunder, excepting only an agreement, in writing, signed by Lessor. The
exercise of any right herein granted to Lessor to terminate this Lease or
possession thereunder during the term of this Lease shall terminate any
extension or renewal of the term hereof or possession during such extension or
renewal, as the case may be.
48. ACCORD AND SATISFACTION. No Payment by Tenant or receipt by Lessor of
a lesser amount than the payments stipulated herein shall be deemed to be other
than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or
statement on any check or similar payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction,
and Lessor shall accept such check or payment without prejudice to Lessor's
right to recover the balance of such rent or other required payment, or pursue
any other remedy provided in this Lease. Accord and satisfaction, if any, shall
be accomplished by separate document executed by both parties.
49. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
50. INVALIDITY. If any part of this Lease or any part of any provision
hereof shall be adjudicated to be void or invalid, then the remaining provisions
hereof not specifically so adjudicated to be invalid, shall be executed without
reference to the part or portion so adjudicated, insofar as such remaining
provisions are capable of execution.
51. GOVERNING LAW. This Lease shall be subject to and governed by the
laws of the State of Minnesota, and all questions concerning the meaning and
intention of the terms of this Lease and concerning the validity hereof and
questions relating to performance hereunder shall be adjudged and resolved in
accordance with the laws of that state, notwithstanding the fact that one or
more of the parties now is or may hereafter become a resident of a different
state.
52. DEFINITION OF LESSOR, TENANT AND GUARANTOR: JOINT AND SEVERAL
LIABILITY. The words, "Lessor," "Tenant" and "Guarantor" used herein shall
include the plural thereof, and the necessary changes required to make the
provisions hereof apply to corporations, partnerships, associations, or men or
women shall be construed as if made. If two or more parties are referred to
collectively under one designation, the liability of each shall be joint and
several.

a corporation, the persons executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant and such
guarantor hereby covenant, represent and warrant: that Tenant and such

he or they, as such officers, are duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Lease; and an appropriate certified copy of corporate resolution of
authorization shall be supplied to Lessor upon execution of this Lease by the
Tenant and such guarantor, as the case may be.
54. HEADINGS. The headings of the paragraphs and subparagraphs of this
Lease are for convenience of reference only, do not form a part hereof, and
shall not be interpreted or construed to modify, limit or amplify such
paragraphs and subparagraphs.
55. PARTIES IN INTEREST; NEGATION OF LESSOR'S PERSONAL LIABILITY. This
Lease shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns of Lessor; and shall inure to the
benefit of, subject to the provisions of paragraph 36, and be binding upon the
successors and assigns of Tenant.

for the execution of this Lease by Lessor, that if Lessor, its successors or
assigns, is or shall be an individual, tenancy in common, joint venture, or
general or limited partnership, there shall be no personal liability to any
individual in any of the terms, covenants and/or conditions of this Lease, and
that Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Lessor in the Center for the
satisfaction of the remedies of Tenant in the event of any breach of this Lease
by Lessor, such exculpation of liability to be absolute and without any
exception whatsoever.
