renewed unless Landlord receives at least 30 days written notice from the issuer that it will not be renewed; and, be assignable to a Purchaser of the Building. Alternatively, at the option of Tenant, such Security Deposit may be paid by Tenant in cash. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the entire Term hereof. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent or other charges or sums due under this Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the security deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charges or sums due under this Lease or any sum in default, or for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss, damage, cost or expense (including attorneys' fees) which Landlord may suffer or incur by reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of said Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefore, deposit a certified or cashier's check with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the security deposit separate from its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. At any time during the term of this Lease if the value of the Tenant’s outstanding shares (Market Capitalization) is below One Hundred Sixty Million and No/100 Dollars ($160,000,000.00) the required amount of the Security Deposit will be increased to Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00). Tenant will deliver the additional amount to Landlord within ten (10) days following notice by Landlord that the additional deposit is required. If the Market Capitalization thereafter increases to Two Hundred Forty Million and No/100 Dollars ($240,000,000.00) or more for a period of six consecutive months the required amount of the Security Deposit will be reduced back to One Million One hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,100,000.00) and the Landlord will return the excess amount to Tenant within five (5) days following Tenant’s notification to Landlord that the condition for return of the additional deposit has been met. In other words any time that the Tenant’s Market Capitalization is below One Hundred Sixty Million and No/100 Dollars ($160,000,000.00) the required Security Deposit will be Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) and any time that the Tenant’s Market Capitalization has been above Two Hundred Forty Million and No/100 Dollars ($240,000,000.00) for a period of six consecutive months the required Security Deposit will be One Million One hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,100,000.00). If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof after deduction hereunder by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder) within thirty (30) days following expiration of the Lease Term; provided, that in the event this Lease shall be terminated upon the default of the Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be retained by Landlord and all of Tenant's interest therein shall terminate and the Security Deposit will be applied against the damages suffered by Landlord by reason of the Tenant's default. In the event of termination of Landlord's interest in this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the Security Deposit to Landlord's successor in interest.
5. | Use. Tenant shall use and occupy the Premises for general office purposes, including, but not limited to, operation of a contact and claims handling center, and operation of a daycare in up to 5,000 square feet of the Premises, and shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances, regulations, orders and directives and insurance requirements applicable to Tenant's use of the Premises. Except for the daycare use, Tenant shall not occupy or use or permit any portion of the Premises to be occupied or used in such a manner or for any purpose which would materially increase the cost of insurance coverage upon the Premises, the building or the contents thereof. |
6. | Rules and Regulations.

Landlord represents that none of the recorded instruments affecting the Project would adversely affect, restrict or prohibit Tenant’s use of the Premises for the uses described herein. Tenant shall be responsible for the compliance with such rules and regulations by its employees, agents and invitees. Landlord's failure to enforce any of such rules and regulations against Tenant or any other tenant shall not be deemed to be a waiver of same, however, Landlord shall apply any such rules and regulations uniformly and shall not discriminate against Tenant with regard to enforcement of same.

7. | Maintenance and Repairs. |
A. Tenant Obligations. By entry hereunder, Tenant shall accept the Premises as being in good and sanitary order, condition and repair, subject to completion by Landlord of Landlord’s Work (to the extent Tenant enters the Premises prior thereto). Without limiting Landlord’s obligations in Section 7B below, Tenant shall, at its expense, keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in first class condition. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the term hereof, surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as when received, except for reasonable wear and tear and with all components and systems in good working order and repair.

The costs of the foregoing shall be Operating Expenses, unless such maintenance and repairs are caused by the act, neglect or omission of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or invitees, in which case Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the reasonable cost of such maintenance and repairs. If the Building equipment or machinery ceases to function properly for any cause whatsoever, or any of the services in Sections 7 or 8 are interrupted, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to repair the same promptly. Landlord’s inability to furnish the Project services set forth in Sections 7 and 8 due to causes beyond its control, or any cessation thereof resulting from any causes, including any entry for repairs pursuant to this Lease, and any renovation, redecoration or rehabilitation of any area of the Building, shall not render Landlord liable for damages to either person or property or for interruption or loss to Tenant’s business, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor relieve Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof; provided, however, if any entry by Landlord and/or interruption of service prevents Tenant from using all or any portion of the Premises, (i) and the reason for the interference is Landlord’s entry or the reason(s) for that interruption of services lie within Landlord’s control, then upon written notice of such interference or interruption from Tenant to Landlord, Base Rent shall xxxxx in proportion to the portion of the Premises Tenant is prevented from using from one (1) business day after the date of the notice until the redelivery of that portion of the Premises and/or restoration of all services to that portion of the Premises, or if (ii) the reason(s) for that interruption do not lie within Landlord’s control and the interruption continues for more than three (3) consecutive business days after written notice of such interruption from Tenant to Landlord, then Base Rent shall xxxxx in proportion to the portion of the Premises Tenant is prevented from using, and Tenant does not use, from and after the expiration of that three (3) day period until the redelivery of that portion of the Premises and/or restoration of all services to that portion of the Premises.

For each calendar year during this Lease, or portion thereof, in addition to the Monthly Minimum Rent as provided in Section 3 above, Tenant shall also pay “Additional Rent”. The term “Additional Rent” means: “any amount in addition to Monthly Minimum Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease including Tenant’s pro rata share of Operating Expenses for each year.” Prior to the beginning of each Calendar Year, Landlord shall reasonably estimate Tenant’s payment amount (the “Estimate”). This estimated amount shall be divided into equal monthly installments, one payable with each installment of the Monthly Minimum Rent. If, subsequent to an Estimate, Landlord reasonably determines that the estimate has changed by 5% or more, Landlord shall provide a new Estimate, and the monthly payment shall be adjusted consistent with the new Estimate. As soon as practical following each calendar year (but in no event more than 180 days after the end of the applicable calendar year in question), Landlord shall prepare an accounting of actual Operating Expenses incurred during the prior calendar year and such accounting shall reflect Tenant’s pro rata share, and shall include in reasonable detail the breakdown of such Operating Expenses so that Tenant may reasonably verify the accuracy of such statement. If the Additional Rent paid by Tenant under this Section 9 during the preceding calendar year was less than the actual amount of Tenant’s pro rata share of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall notify Tenant and Tenant shall pay such amount to Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. If Tenant’s payments were greater than the actual amount due, then such overpayment shall be immediately credited to Tenant. |

Conversely, any overpayment made shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant, except to the extent Tenant at that time is indebted to Landlord.
The determination of Tenant’s pro rata share of actual costs and estimated costs allocable to the Premises shall be made by Landlord. Expenditures common to the Project will be allocated to Tenant based on its prorata share of space within the Project. Expenditures that are not common to the Project will be allocated to some but not all of the tenants in the Building, based on its estimated usage or other commercially reasonable method reasonably determined by Landlord. Landlord or its agent shall keep records showing all expenditures made for the items enumerated above, which records shall be available for inspection and review by Tenant. The Tenant shall have the right, at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice to the Landlord to review the Landlord’s records relating to the actual costs and estimated costs allocable to the Premises for a particular Lease Year, which review must be conducted within twelve (12) months after Tenant’s receipt of the statement of actual costs allocable to the Premises for that particular Lease Year. If such review is not conducted within such twelve (12) month period, then the matters set forth in the statement of actual costs allocable to the Premises for that particular Lease Year shall be deemed conclusive. The Tenant shall pay the costs and expenses of such review unless such review reveals that the Landlord has overstated Tenant’s Operating Expenses for the Lease Year in question by an amount equal to five percent (5%) or more for that particular Lease Year in which event the Landlord shall pay up to $5,000.00 of the actual costs incurred by Tenant in the performance of such review.

8
interrupt or temporarily suspend building services and facilities, all without affecting any of Tenant's obligations hereunder, except as provided herein, so long as the Premises are reasonably accessible; and (d) generally to perform any act relating to the safety, protection and preservation of the Premises or building.
11. | Possession. As a condition to the Commencement Date, Landlord will complete the improvements described on the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit E for the first Phase. The “Delivery Date” will occur after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant a notice of substantial completion of the improvements described in Exhibit E for the first Phase. As a condition to rent commencement for each subsequent Phase, Landlord shall complete the improvements described on the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit E for each such Phase. Landlord will regularly keep Tenant informed regarding the progress of construction on a regular basis. |
12. | Assignment and Subletting. Tenant shall not either voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, convey or encumber this Lease or any interest under it, or sublet its right to occupy or use all or any portion of the Premises (collectively, a “Transfer”) without Landlord's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld. Among the criteria to be used by Landlord in evaluating a request for a Transfer will be (i) the proposed use of the Premises; (ii) the anticipated impact, if any, on parking; (iii) the financial capacity of the assignee/subTenant to perform the obligations under this Lease; (iv) the compatibility of the proposed user with the remainder of the tenants and operation of the Building. In the event that Landlord gives its consent, Tenant shall pay Landlord a reasonable fee, not to exceed One Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,000.00) to reimburse Landlord for processing costs incurred in connection with such consent. Landlord's consent shall not release or discharge Tenant from future liability under this Lease and shall not waive Landlord's right to consent to any future Transfer. Any Transfer without Landlord's consent shall be void and shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a default under this Lease. |
Unless Tenant is a corporation that is publicly traded on a reputable United States stock exchange, any sale, assignment, transfer, sublease or disposition, whether for value, by operation of law, gift, will, or intestacy in a single transaction or a series of related transactions or within any twelve (12) month period, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the ownership interests in Tenant, if Tenant is a partnership, joint venture, or limited liability company or any other type of legal entity or of operating control over Tenant (whether by management agreement, stock sale or other means) shall be deemed to constitute a Transfer. So long as Tenant is a corporation that is publically traded on a reputable United States stock exchange, any sale of Tenant stock shall not constitute a Transfer.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, so long as such Transfer is not effectuated as part of a transaction or series of transactions orchestrated in order to avoid the requirement to obtain Landlord’s consent to a Transfer, Tenant may, without obtaining Landlord’s consent, enter into a Transfer to any other entity which (a) controls or is controlled by Tenant; or (b) is controlled by Tenant’s parent company; or (c) purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; or (d) purchases all or substantially all of the ownership interests of Tenant (each of which is referred to herein as a “Permitted Transfer” and the transferee under any Permitted Transfer is referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee”). Additionally, Tenant shall be permitted to sublease or license the day care portion of the Premises to a third party provider of day care services. In connection with any Permitted Transfer, Tenant shall continue to remain fully liable under the Lease, on a joint and several basis with the assignee or acquirer of such assets or stock. Unless constrained by a confidentiality requirement, Tenant must give Landlord at least thirty (30) days written notice in advance of any such Permitted Transfer and must provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that the transaction qualifies as a Permitted Transfer. In the event that Tenant is prevented from providing Landlord with such prior notice of a Permitted Transfer due to a confidentiality requirement, then Tenant shall provide written notice of such Permitted Transfer to Landlord no later than ten (10) days after the occurrence of such Permitted Transfer. In addition, if Tenant is merged or consolidated
9
with another entity, in accordance with applicable statutory provisions governing merger or consolidation of entities, such Transfer shall be a Permitted Transfer, so long as (A) Tenant’s obligations hereunder are assumed by the entity surviving such merger or created by such consolidation; and (B) Tenant demonstrates to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction that the tangible net worth of the surviving or created entity is not less than the tangible net worth of Tenant as of the date immediately prior to such merger or consolidation.
The Tenant shall not assign its interest in or under this Lease for security purposes, nor shall the Tenant grant any security interest, lien or encumbrance against its interest in this Lease or in or to any property in or affixed to the Premises without the prior written consent of the Landlord, which consent shall be granted, withheld or conditioned in Landlord’s sole discretion. In no event shall the Tenant grant, or allow to exist, any security interest in, or lien or encumbrance against the fee title to the Premises, the building in which the Premises is located or the real property on which the building is located.
13. | Alterations. All alterations to the Premises shall require Landlord’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Landlord agrees to comment as to Tenant’s plans and specifications within ten (10) days of receipt of same, failing which, such plans and specifications shall be deemed approved. Promptly upon completion of any material alterations, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with an as-built set of plans therefore. All such alterations, additions or improvements become the property of Landlord immediately upon installation in the Premises and shall be conclusively presumed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as a xxxx of sale, without compensation, allowance, or credit to Tenant. Tenant agrees to save Landlord harmless from any damage, loss, or expense arising from the construction of any alterations, additions and improvements and to comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. Upon termination of this Lease, all alterations, additions and improvements made in, to or on the Premises (including without limitation all electrical, lighting, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and communications equipment and systems, doors, windows, partitions, drapery, carpeting, shelving, counters, and physically attached fixtures unless excluded by written agreement annexed hereto), shall remain upon and be surrendered as a part of the Premises; provided however, upon Landlord's request Tenant shall remove its communications cabling and those additions, alterations, or improvements as specified by Landlord at the time Landlord approves such alteration, addition or improvements, and repair and restore the Premises at Tenant's sole cost and expense prior to expiration of the Term. Tenant may install a backup generator, at Tenant’s sole cost, at a location and based on specifications reasonably approved by Landlord. Tenant will be responsible to obtain any necessary permits or approvals required to install the generator and for ongoing repairs and maintenance. For additional terms related to the initial improvements to the Premises see the Work Letter attached as Exhibit E. |
14. | Liens. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, equipment supplied, or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant. No work performed, material furnished, equipment supplied or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant shall be deemed to be for the immediate use and benefit of Landlord so that no mechanic's lien or other lien shall be allowed against Landlord's estate in the premises. Within a reasonable time after completion of any work by or on behalf of Tenant, Tenant shall provide, at Tenant's own cost, waivers of lien signed by any party (including the Tenant) who performs work, furnishes materials, or supplies equipment to the Premises. Landlord may require, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, a lien release and completion bond in an amount equal to either the actual contract price or one and one-half times the estimated cost of any improvements, additions or alterations in the Premises which Tenant desires to make, to insure Landlord against any liability for lien and to insure completion of the work. |
15. | Signs. All signs or symbols placed by Tenant in the windows and doors of the Premises, or upon any exterior part of the building, shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which shall |
10
not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Prior to termination of this Lease, Tenant will remove all signs placed by it upon the Premises, and will repair any damages caused by such removal. Tenant may install a highly visible exterior building sign on the parapet of the building in a location that is mutually acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant. The exterior signage shall be subject to Tenant obtaining any necessary approval from the City of Seattle.
16. | Insurance. |
A Landlord's Insurance. All insurance maintained by Landlord shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under Landlord's sole control. Landlord agrees to maintain property insurance insuring the Building against damage or destruction due to risk including fire, vandalism, and malicious mischief in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) (or such greater percentage as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of any co insurance clauses of the policy) of the replacement cost thereof, in the form and with deductibles and endorsements as selected by Landlord. At its election, Landlord may instead (but shall have no obligation to) obtain "All Risk" coverage, and may also obtain earthquake, pollution, and/or flood insurance in amounts selected by Landlord. Landlord shall not be obligated to insure, and shall have no responsibility whatsoever for any damage to, any furniture, machinery, goods, inventory or supplies, or other personal property or fixtures which Tenant may keep or maintain in the Premises, or any leasehold improvements, additions or alterations within the Premises.
B Tenant's Insurance. Tenant shall, at its sole expense, purchase and keep in force during the Term of this Lease the following:
i. Property Insurance. Property insurance on all personal property and fixtures of Tenant and all improvements, additions or alterations made by or for Tenant to the Premises on an "All Risk" or "Special Form" basis, insuring such property for its full replacement value.
ii. Liability Insurance. Commercial general liability insurance in the amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) combined single limit per occurrence and Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in the annual aggregate, covering bodily injury, personal and advertising injury and property damage liability occurring in or about the Premises or arising out of the use and occupancy of the Premises and the Building, and any part of either, and any areas adjacent thereto, and the business operated by Tenant or by any other occupant of the Premises. Such insurance shall (1) include contractual liability coverage; (2) be written to apply to all bodily injury (including death), property damage or loss (broad form), fire legal liability, products completed operations, medical payments, personal and advertising injury and other covered loss; (3) shall provide for the severability of interests of insureds; (4) shall be written on an "occurrence" basis, which shall afford coverage for all claims based on acts, omissions, injury and damage, which occurred or arose (or the onset of which occurred or arose) in whole or in part during the policy period; (5) the policy shall include an endorsement providing that the general aggregate limit shall be on a per location basis, to include the leased premises; and (6) shall include coverage for sexual abuse and molestation exposures. The above coverages and limits may be achieved by using excess or umbrella policies.
iii. Workers' Compensation Insurance. Tenant shall maintain all required coverages including employer’s liability at a limit of not less than $1,000,000.
iv. Auto Liability Insurance. Tenant shall maintain auto liability for all owned, non-owned and hired autos at a limit of not less than $1,000,000 per accident.
v. General Insurance Requirements. All coverages described in this section shall (1) include Landlord, Landlord's property manager, and the members, managers, partners, trustees, officers, directors, shareholders, parents affiliates and subsidiaries of Landlord, its representatives,
11
assigns, licensees, beneficiaries, agents and employees (the "Landlord Entities") as additional insured on the commercial general liability policy and as additional insured/loss payee on the property insurance policy with respect to Landlord's interest in improvements and alterations; (2) be issued by an insurance company rated A-VII or better in "Best's Insurance Guide" and authorized to do business in the State of Washington; (3) be primary and provide that any insurance coverage maintained by Landlord shall be considered excess and non-contributing to the policies required by this section; (4) endeavor to provide Landlord with forty-five (45) days' notice of cancellation (ten (10) days for cancellation due to non-payment of premium); and (5) to the extent permitted by law, waive all rights of subrogation by the insurance carrier against Landlord. The certificates for such insurance policies shall be delivered to Landlord by Tenant upon the earlier of (x) Tenant's possession of the Premises, or (y) the Commencement Date of this Lease, and upon each renewal of such insurance throughout the term of this Lease. The coverage afforded to Landlord must be at least as broad as that afforded to Tenant and may not contain any terms, conditions, exclusions or limitations applicable to Landlord that do not apply to Tenant. If at any time during the Term the amount or coverage of insurance which Tenant is required to carry under this section is, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, materially less than the amount or type of insurance coverage typically carried by Tenants of properties located in the general area in which the Premises are located, or if Tenant's use of the Premises changes with or without Landlord's consent, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to increase the amount or change the types of insurance coverage required under this section. If Tenant fails to procure such insurance, or to deliver such policies or certificates, Landlord may, after written notice to Tenant and expiration of a thirty (30) day cure period, at Landlord's option and in addition to Landlord's other remedies in the event of a default by Tenant hereunder, procure and maintain insurance for such items and interests to protect Landlord in such amounts as Landlord may determine to be appropriate and any and all premiums paid or payable by Landlord therefore shall be deemed to be additional rent and shall be due on the payment date of the next installment of Rent hereunder.
vi. Increase in Insurance Premium. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not keep, use, sell or offer for sale in or upon the Leased Premises any article, nor conduct any activities or operations, which are or may be prohibited by Landlord's insurance carriers; provided however, Tenant shall be permitted to operate a day care in the day care portion of the Premises. Tenant shall pay any increase in premiums for property or liability insurance maintained by Landlord resulting from Tenant's use or occupancy of the Leased Premises, whether or not Landlord has consented thereto. In the event of such increased insurance premiums to Landlord, Tenant also shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to any additional premium on the insurance policy or policies that Landlord may carry for its protection against loss resulting from any insured event. In determining whether increased premiums are the result of Tenant's use or occupancy of the Leased Premises, the carrier underwriting the rates and premiums shall decide. Landlord shall deliver bills for such additional amounts to Tenant at such times as Landlord may elect, and Tenant shall pay Landlord therefor within thirty (30) days.
17. | Indemnity Against Liability for Loss or Damage |
A. Except to the extent the same arise as a result of the acts, omissions or negligence of Landlord, its agents, employees or contractors, Tenant assumes all liability for and shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord from and against all loss, damage or expense which the Landlord may sustain or incur, and against any and all claims, demands, suits and actions whatsoever, including expense of investigation and litigation, on account of injury to or death of persons, including without limitation employees of Landlord, employees of Tenant or its affiliated companies or on account of damage to or destruction of property, including without limitation property owned by and property in the care, custody or control of Landlord during the Term, due to or arising in any manner from:
12
(i) | The acts or gross negligence of Tenant or any contractor, subcontractor, or agent of Tenant or their respective employees; |
(ii) | The condition, use or operation of the Premises and/or materials or substances used by Tenant or any of its contractors, subcontractors or agents of Tenant or by their respective employees, regardless of whether or not furnished by Landlord under this Lease or otherwise; |
(iii) | Any damage or injury to persons or property arising out of Tenant's breach of this Lease, including, but not limited to, obligations of Tenant under Section 7, Maintenance. |
B. Except to the extent the same arise as a result of the acts, omissions or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees or contractors, Landlord assumes all liability for and shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Tenant from and against all loss, damage or expense which the Tenant may sustain or incur, and against any and all claims, demands, suits and actions whatsoever, including expense of investigation and litigation, on account of injury to or death of persons, including without limitation employees of Tenant or its affiliated companies, employees of Landlord or its affiliated companies or on account of damage to or destruction of property, including without limitation property owned by and property in the care, custody or control of Tenant during the Term, due to or arising in any manner from:
(i) | The acts or gross negligence of Landlord or any contractor, subcontractor, or agent of Tenant or their respective employees; |
(ii) | The condition, use or operation of the Building (other than the Premises) and/or materials or substances used by Landlord or any of its contractors, subcontractors or agents of Landlord or by their respective employees; |
(iii) | Any damage or injury to persons or property arising out of Landlord’s breach of this Lease, including, but not limited to, obligations of Landlord under Section 7, Maintenance. |
C. Neither party shall be obligated to indemnify the other for the portion of any claim or liability caused by or arising from the act, or negligence of such party.
D. It is mutually understood and agreed that the assumption of liabilities and indemnification provided for in this Section 17 shall survive any termination of this Lease.
E. Solely for the purpose of effectuating Landlord’s and Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Lease, and not for the benefit of any third parties (including but not limited to employees of Landlord and Tenant ), each of Landlord and Tenant agree not to assert as a defense any immunity provided under the Washington State Industrial Insurance Act, Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington and Landlord’s and Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Lease shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable to Landlord’s and Tenant’s employees or any third party under such act or any similar Law.
18. | Damage or Destruction. If any of the Premises, or a substantial part of the building in which the Premises are located, shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other insured casualty, and repair of the damage cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days, following receipt by Landlord of actual notice of such damage or destruction Landlord shall have the option either (a) to repair or rebuild within a reasonable time utilizing the insurance proceeds to effect such repair, or (b) not to repair or rebuild, and to cancel this Lease on thirty (30) days’ notice. If Landlord fails to give Tenant |
13
written notice of its election within thirty (30) days from the date of damage, or if the restoration of the Premises cannot be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days from date of notice, Tenant may cancel this Lease at its option on three (3) days notice. During the period of untenantability rent shall xxxxx in the same ratio as the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable bears to the whole of the Premises; provided that if the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant, there shall be no abatement of rent.
If the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other insured casualty, and repair of the damage can be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days, Landlord shall repair or rebuild within a reasonable time utilizing the insurance proceeds to effect such repair.
If any part of the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located shall be damaged or destroyed by an uninsured casualty Landlord shall have the option either (a) to repair or rebuild within a reasonable time, or (b) not to repair or rebuild, and to cancel this Lease on thirty (30) days notice. In the event of cancellation by Landlord as a result of an uninsured casualty, Tenant shall have the right, within fifteen (15) days following Landlord’s notice of cancellation, to override such cancellation by agreeing to repair the damage at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and offset such costs against Rent. In such event, the Tenant shall repair or rebuild within a reasonable time following the damage or destruction.
19. | Eminent Domain. If the whole of the Premises shall be taken by any public authority under the power of eminent domain, or purchased by the condemnor in lieu thereof, then the term of this Lease shall cease as of the date possession is taken by such public authority. If only part of the Premises shall be so taken, the Lease shall terminate only as to the portion taken, and shall continue in full force and effect as to the remainder of said Premises, and the monthly rent shall be reduced proportionately; provided, however, if the remainder of the Premises cannot be made tenantable for the purposes for which Tenant has been using the Premises or if more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable square footage of the Premises shall be so taken, then either party, by written notice to the other, given at least thirty (30) days prior to the date that possession must be surrendered to the public authority, may terminate this Lease effective as of such surrender of possession. If any part of the building other than the Premises shall be so taken so as to render in Landlord's opinion the termination of this Lease beneficial to the remaining portion of the building, Landlord shall have the right within sixty (60) days of said taking to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant. In the event of any taking, whether whole or partial, Landlord shall be entitled to all awards, settlements, or compensation which may be given for the land and buildings. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. Tenant shall have the right to seek an independent and separate award from the condemning authority for relocation benefits and for any tangible personal property of the Tenant taken so long as such award does not diminish the amount of the award payable to Landlord. |
20. | Insolvency. If Tenant shall be judicially declared insolvent or bankrupt, or if Tenant's leasehold interest herein shall be levied upon or seized under writ of any court of law, or if a trustee, receiver or assignee be appointed for the property of Tenant, whether under operation of State or Federal statutes (and any of such circumstances lasts for more than sixty (60) days), then Landlord may, at its option, immediately, without notice (notice being expressly waived), terminate this Lease and take possession of said Premises. |
21. | Default and Re-Entry. If Tenant fails to keep or perform any of the covenants and agreements herein contained, then the same shall constitute a breach hereof. If the breach is Tenant’s failure to pay rent or other charges provided for herein, then the Lease is in default upon Tenant’s failure to |
14
pay such amount within five (5) business days after written notice from Landlord. If Tenant has not remedied other types of breaches within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord, except that if the breach cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, then if Tenant fails to commence to cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter, diligently prosecute such cure to completion, then the same shall be a default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s failure to comply with the same Lease term or covenant beyond the applicable cure period on three (3) occasions during the Term, even if such breach is cured within the applicable cure period, will constitute a default.
Upon and at any time after any default Landlord may, at its option, without further notice or demand:
A. Cure such breach for the account and at the expense of Tenant (including entry upon the Premises to make repairs on behalf of the Tenant where Tenant has failed to make such repairs as required under this Lease) and such expense shall be deemed Additional Rent due on the first of the following month; or
B. Re-enter the Premises, remove all persons therefrom, take possession of the Premises and remove all personal property therein at Tenant's risk and expense and (1) terminate this Lease, or (2) without terminating the Lease, terminate the right of possession hereunder. In either event, any moneys received from Tenant and any deposit or other amounts held by Landlord may first be applied by Landlord to any damages suffered by Landlord as a result of such default, including without limitation, costs and expenses incurred on re-entry and re-letting, any unamortized tenant improvements and commissions, cleaning, necessary repairs, restoration and alteration, and any commissions incurred on re-letting (“Re-leasing Costs”), and the balance of such amounts may be applied toward payment of other sums due to Landlord hereunder. In the event the Premises are re-let for Tenant's account, Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly any deficiency; however, Landlord shall not be required to pay any excess to Tenant. Upon termination of this Lease or of Tenant’s right to possession, Landlord reserves and has the right to recover damages arising from the breach of the Lease from Tenant including, but not limited to: (w) Re-leasing Costs; (x) The Worth (see interest calculation below) of the unpaid rent and other charges provided for herein that had been earned at the time of such termination; (y) The worth of the amount of the unpaid rent and other charges provided for herein that would have been earned for the balance of the term of this Lease after the date of such termination; and (z) Any other amount, including court, attorney and collection costs, necessary to compensate Landlord. “The Worth,” as used in Clause (x) above is to be calculated with interest at 18% per year (or, if applicable, at such lower rate as may represent the highest legal limit allowed in the State of Washington). “The worth” as used in Clause (y) above is to be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of termination. The above remedies of Landlord are cumulative and in addition to any other remedies now or hereafter allowed by law or elsewhere provided for in this Lease.
C. Landlord shall not be liable for damages by reason of the re-entry described in section B, above.
D. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in the event of a breach or default by Tenant.
22. | Removal of Property. Any property of Tenant removed by Landlord in accordance with Section 21 above may be stored, sold, or disposed of by Landlord without any additional notice to Tenant at the sole risk and expense of Tenant and without any further responsibility of Landlord. Proceeds therefrom may be applied by Landlord upon any indebtedness due from Tenant to Landlord. Tenant waives all claims for damages that may be caused by Landlord re-entering the Premises and removing or disposing of said property as herein provided. |
15
23. | Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. If there is litigation between the parties concerning this Lease (including any litigation or other proceeding in Bankruptcy Court), the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the losing party the cost and expenses of such action, including reasonable collection fees, attorneys’ fees (including without limitation the allocated cost of in-house counsel) and court costs, including but not limited to those incurred at and in preparation for discovery (including depositions), arbitration, trial, appeal and review. |
Any dispute relating to this Lease shall be brought in the State or Federal Court in the County in which the Premises are located or, at Landlord's or Tenant’s election, in King County, Washington; provided, however, that Landlord has the right to initiate binding arbitration conducted by Judicial Dispute Resolution, LLC, in Seattle, Washington.
24. | Subrogation Waiver. Landlord and Tenant each herewith and hereby release and relieve the other and waive its entire right of recovery against the other for loss or damage arising out of or incident to the perils of fire, explosion or any other perils described in the "all risk" insurance and the events covered under the property insurance coverages required under this Lease, whether due to the negligence of either party, their agents, employees or otherwise. Each party shall obtain from its respective insurer under each insurance policy that it maintains a waiver of all rights of subrogation which the insurer may have against the other party for claims that are released under this Section 24. |
25. | Holding Over. If Tenant, with the express consent of Landlord, shall hold over after the expiration of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall remain bound by all the covenants and agreements herein, except that (a) the tenancy shall be from month-to-month and (b) the monthly rent to be paid by Tenant shall be determined by multiplying the monthly rent in effect immediately preceding such expiration times 150% (or such other amount as agreed by Landlord and Tenant). If Tenant holds possession of the Demised Premises after the expiration of the Lease without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall remain bound by all the covenants and agreements herein, except that (a) the tenancy shall be at sufferance and (b) the monthly rent to be paid by Tenant shall be the greater of twice the monthly rent in effect immediately preceding such expiration or the total loss to Landlord as a result of Tenant's holdover if, effective during the term of such holdover, Landlord has leased all or part of the Premises to other Tenant(s). Any such tenancy may be terminated with twenty (20) days prior notice as provided by Washington State law. |
In the event of any unauthorized holding over, Tenant shall also indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all liability, losses, claims, causes of action, damages, costs and expenses (including without limitation attorney fees) resulting from Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises, including without limitation claims made by succeeding Tenants resulting from Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises.
Tenant’s obligations under this Section 25 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
26. | Subordination and Attornment; Mortgage Protection. |
A. Subordination-Notice to Mortgagee. At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver, commercially reasonable instruments which may be required to subordinate this Lease to any existing or future mortgages, deeds of trust and/or other security documents on or encumbering the Premises or on the leasehold interest held by Landlord, and to any extensions, renewals, or replacements thereof, provided that the mortgagee or beneficiary, as the case may be, shall agree to recognize this Lease in the event of foreclosure if Tenant is not in material default at such time. Landlord represents that there is currently no mortgage or ground lease affecting the Premises, Building or Project.
16
B. Nondisturbance. In the event of subordination of this Lease, Landlord shall obtain from Landlord’s Mortgagee, a written nondisturbance agreement to the effect that (a) in the event of a foreclosure or other action taken under the Mortgage by the holder thereof, this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder shall not be disturbed but shall continue in full force and effect so long as Tenant shall not be in default hereunder, and (b) Landlord’s Mortgagee will agree that in the event it shall be in possession of the Premises, that so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, Landlord’s Mortgagee will perform all obligations of Landlord required to be performed under this Lease.
C. Tenant’s Certificate. Tenant shall at any time and from time to time within ten (10) business days after written notice from Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect), and the date to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any; and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of the Landlord or Tenant hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed; and (c) setting forth the date of commencement of rents and expiration of the Lease Term hereof; and, (d) such other information as the Landlord shall reasonably require. Any such statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of all or any portion of the Premises of which the Premises are a part.
D. Mortgagee Protection Clause. Tenant agrees to notify any mortgagee and/or trust deed holders, by registered mail, with a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of Notice of Assignment of Rents and Lease, or otherwise) of the addresses of such mortgagees and/or trust deed holders. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default, then Tenant shall provide such mortgagees and/or trust deed holders a commercially reasonable right to cure such default.
27. | Surrender of Possession. Tenant shall, prior to the termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, remove from the Premises all personal property which Tenant is entitled to remove and those alterations, additions, improvements or signs which may be required by Landlord to be removed including cabling and signs, pursuant to Sections 13 and 15 above, and shall repair or pay for all damage to the Premises caused by such removal. All such property remaining and every interest of Tenant in the same shall be conclusively presumed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as a xxxx of sale, without compensation, allowance, or credit to Tenant. Tenant shall upon termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right of possession, deliver all keys to Landlord and peacefully quit and surrender the Premises without notice, neat and clean, and in as good condition as when Tenant took possession, except for reasonable wear and tear and with all components and systems in good working order and repair. |
28. | Late Payment and Interest. If any amount due from Tenant is not received in the office of Landlord on or before the fifth (5th) day following notice from Landlord that such payment is late, a late charge of five percent (5%) of said amount shall become immediately due and payable, which late charge Landlord and Tenant agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the processing and accounting costs that Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment. All past due amounts owing to Landlord or Tenant under this Lease, including rent, shall be assessed interest at an annual percentage rate of twelve percent (12%) from the date due until paid. |
29. | Notice. Any notice, communication or remittance required or permitted by this Lease by either party to the other shall be deemed given, served or delivered, in writing, delivered personally or by courier, addressed to the Landlord at the address specified for the payment of rent under Section 3 of this Lease. |

31. | Entire Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that there are no promises, agreements, conditions, understandings, inducements, warranties, or representations, oral or written, express or implied, between them, other than as herein set forth and that this Lease shall not be modified in any manner except by an instrument in writing executed by the parties. |
32. | Binding on Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The covenants and agreements of this Lease shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of both parties hereto, except as hereinabove provided. |

If this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an obligation of a party, that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in the party’s performance caused by any of the events of force majeure described herein. The provisions of this Section 36 do not apply to any monetary obligations of the parties.
37. | Limitation of Liability. The recourse of Tenant to recover any claim against Landlord arising under this Lease shall be limited to Landlord’s interest in the Building and to the rents, issues and profits from the Building. Tenant waives any and all recourse for any such liability against Landlord’s members, partners, shareholders, trustees or beneficiaries, or any property or assets of Landlord other than the Building. |
38. | Option to Extend. Provided Tenant has not been in default of any term or condition of the Lease beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period more than once in the twelve (12) months preceding its Exercise Notice, and is not in default at the time it delivers the Exercise Notice, Tenant shall have the Option to Extend this Lease for the entire Premises on all of the terms and conditions contained in this Lease, except Monthly Minimum Rent, for either one 10 year term or two (2) consecutive terms of five (5) years each (each an “Extended Term”) following expiration of the Initial Term. The Monthly Minimum Rent for each Extended Term shall be the Market Rent as determined hereunder. Tenant shall notify Landlord of its exercise of the option not less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the first Extended Term, as applicable (an “Exercise Notice”). |
Within ten (10) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Exercise Notice, Landlord shall deliver notice (“Option Rent Notice”) to Tenant setting forth the Landlord’s determination of the Market Rent for the Extended Term. Within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Option Rent Notice, Tenant shall provide Landlord with irrevocable written notice (“Tenant’s Response”) stating either (a) that Tenant accepts Landlord’s determination of Market Rent in the Option Rent Notice, or (b) that Tenant objects to Landlord’s determination of Market Rent and elects to determine Market Rent as set for the below. If Tenant fails to timely deliver a Tenant’s Response, Tenant shall be deemed to have objected to the Base Rent in the Option Rent Notice and elected to determine Market Rent as set forth below. Time is of the essence hereof and late notice shall not be effective.
If Tenant’s Response elects to determine Market Rent under this provision, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to agree upon the Market Rent. If Landlord and Tenant do not reach agreement within ten (10) business days after delivery of Tenant’s Response to Landlord (“Outside Agreement Date”), then each party shall make a separate determination of the Market Rent (which determination may include periodic adjustments) which shall be submitted to each other and to arbitration in accordance with the following terms. The parties shall deliver their separate determinations of Market Rent simultaneously on the Outside Agreement Date. The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to deciding whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Market Rent schedule is the closest to the actual Market Rent as determined by the arbitrators and the arbitrators shall have no ability to amend this Lease, modify the definition of Market Rent or to propose a middle ground.
(a) Within ten (10) days of the Outside Agreement Date Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator and shall notify the other party in writing of such selection. Each arbitrator shall by profession be a current real estate broker or appraiser of office space in the immediate vicinity of the Project, and who has been active in the Georgetown and SODO submarkets of Seattle over the last five (5) years.
19
(b) The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall, within five (5) business days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator, agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth above and, in addition, shall not have acted on behalf of either party, except as a neutral arbitrator, in the prior three (3) years. If the two arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, then either party can petition a court to appoint the third arbitrator meeting the qualifications set forth herein.
(c) The three (3) arbitrators shall within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator to determine which party’s submitted Market Rent schedule is the closest to the actual Market Rent as determined by the arbitrators. The arbitrators shall consider all written materials submitted and may, upon notice to both parties, request additional information be submitted in writing but shall not hold a hearing or take oral testimony. The arbitrators shall notify Landlord and Tenant of their decision in writing. The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The arbitrators shall have no power to modify the provisions of this Lease.
(d) If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, the single arbitrator appointed shall determine the Market Rent and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant for the Extended Term.
(e) All arbitration costs will be paid by the party whose suggested rate was not selected as the Market Rate.
“Market Rent” shall mean the rental rate and concessions that Landlord and landlords of competing and comparable buildings in Georgetown and SODO submarket areas, (with special emphasis given to leases in the Building), have achieved in new and renewal office leases in the twelve (12) month period prior to the effective date of such determination for non-equity transactions for comparable space with comparable tenant improvements, and views to a new tenant with comparable financial standing. The determination of Market Rent shall take into consideration: location in the Building or other building, existing tenant improvements, proposed term of lease, the means of reimbursing Landlord for operating costs and taxes, the time the particular rate under consideration became or is to become effective, rent concessions, and tenant improvement and other allowances (if any) that are typical in the market at the time for a similar lease term, and any other relevant terms or conditions except as provided herein. Costs which are incurred by a landlord in connection with the negotiation and documentation of a lease transaction, and other costs incurred by a landlord which are not paid to or for the direct benefit of the tenant, shall not be considered. Comparable transactions in which the rent for a renewal was discounted to a rate below the fair market rate, whether by the application of a percentage to the fair market rate or otherwise, shall be adjusted to reflect the fair market rate before the discount was applied. Renewal transactions in which the rent was either established at a pre-determined amount by reason of the exercise by the tenant of an option to renew or extend at a fixed rental rate or was established due to the operation of a pre-determined minimum or maximum amount shall not be regarded as comparable transactions. Sublease transactions shall not be considered in establishing Market Rent. Market Rent may include periodic or annual increases if such increases are consistent with then-existing market conditions.
39. | Right of First Opportunity. Provided Tenant has not been in default of any term or condition of the Lease beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period more than once in the prior twelve (12) months, and subject to the specific rights of the tenant within such space and the rights of existing tenants in the building as of the date of this Lease, as stated in Exhibit F, if any space within the Building in which the Premises is located is available for lease or if the Landlord becomes aware that any such space is to become available, Landlord will provide Tenant with notice of such availability (the “First Opportunity Notice”). Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to keep Tenant apprised of potential vacancies as Landlord becomes aware of them and to give Tenant advance |
20
notice that Landlord intends to deliver a First Opportunity Notice. The First Opportunity Notice will contain the following information:
1. The description of the specific space within the Building (the “First Opportunity Space”).
2. The date on which the space will become available
3. The Rental Rate and concessions that Landlord is willing to accept for such space.
Within seven (7) days following receipt of the First Opportunity Notice, Tenant will notify Landlord if it chooses to exercise its right to lease the space identified in the notice on the terms specified. If Tenant either waives its right or fails to notify Landlord within seven (7) days then Landlord will be free to lease such space to any third party. Thereafter, if Landlord agrees with another prospective tenant to accept terms for any part of the First Opportunity Space that are less favorable to Landlord than the terms Landlord offered to Tenant, then Landlord will notify Tenant of the terms and Tenant shall have five (5) days to agree to lease that space on those terms.
If Tenant exercises its right to lease the identified space, the lease term will expire on the termination date of this Lease.
40. Option to Purchase. Provided Tenant has not been in default of any term or condition of the Lease beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period more than two times in the twelve (12) months prior to a Landlord notice, Tenant shall have an ongoing Right of First Opportunity to Purchase the Building. Landlord will provide Tenant with prior notice if it decides to sell or market the building for sale at any time during the Lease Term. Landlord agrees that it will not sell or transfer (or offer to sell or transfer) the Building on or before the 30th month of the term of the Lease. Landlord also agrees that it will provide Tenant a First Opportunity to acquire the Building sometime between the 30th and the 40th month of the term of the Lease. The notice will specify the material terms of a proposed sale, including the Purchase Xxxxx, xxxxxxx money, feasibility period, time to closing (not to be less than forty five (45) days) and other matters that Landlord is willing to accept. Should Landlord and Tenant not agree on the material terms within ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of the notice, Landlord shall have the right to enter into a binding Purchase and Sale Agreement to sell the building to another buyer within the following six (6) month period (with a closing date not more than nine (9) months after Landlord’s notice), however, if Landlord is prepared to agree to material terms with another buyer that are more favorable than or equal to the material terms Landlord offered to Tenant (including the net sale price after adjustment for any commission) , then Landlord will notify Tenant of the terms and Tenant shall have five (5) days to agree to purchase the Building at the agreed-upon equal or lower material terms. If Tenant waives its right to purchase the Building and Landlord has not successfully completed the execution of a binding Purchase and Sale Agreement for sale of the Building to a third party within the aforementioned six (6) months, or if the sale fails to close on the specified Closing Date (as the date may be extended), but in no event more than nine (9) months after Landlord’s notice, Tenant’s Right of First Opportunity shall apply again on an ongoing basis.
If the building is not under contract to sell by the 60th month of the lease term, Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a First Opportunity Notice at the end of the 60th month of the lease term. Following such notice Tenant shall have ten (10) days to elect to purchase the Property. If, at that time, the parties cannot agree upon Purchase Price within the ten (10) day period, the Purchase Price under such election shall be determined pursuant to the arbitration process set forth in Section 38 above, provided, however, that the parties shall simultaneously deliver fair market value of the property Notices to one another within ten (10) business days after they have reached an impasse as to Purchase Price. The fair market value of the Property shall be determined based upon the same arbitration process (using three arbitrators), with the arbitrators determining what the fair market value of the Property is (rather than what fair market rent may be). Provided, however, in no instance
21
shall the purchase price established by such arbitration be less than Landlord’s cost basis in the Property. In addition, Landlord has agreed to provide Tenant with Purchase Money financing on the following basic terms:
Term: 2 years (utilizing a 30 year amortization schedule)
Loan Fee: 1% of Loan Amount
Interest Rate (calculated on an actual/360 basis):
Loan to Value Interest Rate Spread over 30 day LIBOR:
60% 3¾ %
65% 4⅛ %
70% 4⅝ %
75% 5¼ %
Open to prepayment at any time with no penalty
41. | Parking. The Building has and Tenant will have 2.34 stalls/1000 RSF at no cost to Tenant. Ten (10) of the stalls that Tenant is entitled to use will be reserved for Tenant’s exclusive use and will be signed to so indicate and two (2) stalls will be reserved for the load/unload activities of Tenant’s childcare operation. Landlord will not be required to police or enforce the exclusivity of the stalls.

Tenant shall also have the right to install a generator for Tenant’s use in the parking area or such other location as mutually agreed upon with Landlord. |
42. | Survival. The obligations and liabilities of Tenant hereunder, as well as the release, indemnity and attorney fee provisions of this Lease, shall survive the expiration of this Lease and/or the termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Tenant’s right of possession. |
43. | Not an Offer. Submission of this document for examination and signature by Tenant is not an offer to lease and does not create a reservation or option to lease; no claim for reliance, estoppel, contract, breach of good faith, or other claim can be made based upon the circulation of this Lease. This document will become effective and binding only upon full execution and delivery by both Tenant and Landlord. |
44. | Access. Tenant shall be permitted access to the Premises twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week. |
