In no event shall Tenant use all or any part of the Premises for the production, processing, sale or distribution of marijuana, cannabis or CBD related uses.

are suitable for Tenant’s intended purposes or approved for Tenants intended use.
Tenant shall not initiate, submit an application for, or otherwise request, any land use approvals or entitlements with respect to the Premises or any other portion of the Project, including, without limitation, any variance, conditional use permit or rezoning, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which may be given or withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. Tenant shall not use or permit such use in any manner which: (a) is unlawful; (b) may be dangerous; (c) may invalidate or increase the cost of any insurance policy held by Landlord affecting the Project; (d) may create a nuisance or may disturb, endanger or unreasonably interfere with other tenants of the Project or the occupants of neighboring property; (e) violates the “Rules and Regulations” of the Project; (f) would or may constitute in any manner a “Pill Mill” (i.e. used for the production and distribution of any pill, drugs narcotics or other medical substances); or (g) would be offensive to the Project or the occupants of neighboring property by reason of odor, smoke, dust, gas, fumes, noise, vibrations, pests, or traffic except to the extent consistent with any Permitted Uses (as clarified in the paragraph below). Tenant has verified that its use is permitted by all governmental authorities that have jurisdiction and that no condition at the Project in any way limits the ability of Tenant to operate its business.
For avoidance of doubt, the performance of any and all dust collection, gas use, gas exhaust, cutting, gluing, painting and welding operations, and the installation and operation of any and all equipment for carrying out any of the foregoing operations, in connection with any Permitted Use, shall be conclusively deemed within the Scope of the Permitted Use insofar as (i) permitted by applicable law, and (ii) not violative of the subsection (c) insurance limitations.
Outside storage, including, without limitation, storage of trucks and other vehicles, is prohibited without Landlord’s prior written consent. Subject to Tenant’s obligations to maintain the area in a safe and clean manner, compliant with all applicable laws, Landlord hereby consents to the outside storage of raw materials, ingredients, equipment, components, parts and sub-assemblies utilized in connection with any Permitted Use, and any transportable homes, transportable buildings, trailers, containers and vehicles by Tenant during the Term only in the outside area(s) depicted on Exhibit K attached hereto.
7.COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS:
7.1TENANT OBLIGATIONS. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, comply with and shall cause the Premises and all Tenant Parties to comply with all Laws affecting the Premises (including without limitation all accessibility and occupational safety and health Laws) or any part or the use thereof, and promptly shall comply with all governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of violations in or upon, or connected with, the Premises. Tenant acknowledges that it will be responsible for complying with current and future laws and regulations even though such compliance requires Tenant to make substantial repairs or modifications (including structural modifications) to the Premises and even though the application of the law or regulation is unrelated to Tenant’s specific use of the Premises (except where such modifications, alterations, or repairs are expressly made the responsibility of Landlord under the terms of this Lease). Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or unpleasant odors, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibrations to emanate from the Premises, or take any other action that would constitute a nuisance, create a dangerous situation, or would disturb, unreasonably interfere with or endanger Landlord or any other tenants of the Project, it being recognized that the performance of any and all dust collection, gas use, gas exhaust, cutting, gluing, painting and welding operations, and the installation and operation of any and all equipment for carrying out any of the foregoing operations, in connection with any Permitted Use, insofar as permitted by applicable law and not violative of the Clause 6(c) insurance limitations, shall not be deemed objectionable, unpleasant, or a nuisance under this section. Tenant shall obtain, at its sole expense, any permit or other governmental authorization required to operate its business from the Premises. Landlord shall not be liable for the failure of any other tenant or person to abide by the requirements of this section or to otherwise comply with applicable laws and regulations, and Tenant shall not be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Lease due to such a failure.
7.2LANDLORD OBLIGATIONS. Landlord shall comply with all Laws with respect to the construction of the Common Areas of the Project and the Base Building. As used herein, “Base Building” shall mean the structural elements of the roof (excluding membrane) and exterior walls, and the structural soundness of the foundation of the Building.
7
0.XXXX AND SALES/USE TAX: Rent shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date. Rent is due in advance on the first day of each month of the Term and will be delinquent if not paid accordingly. Unless another time shall be expressly provided for payment, any additional Rent shall be due and payable on demand or together with the next succeeding installment of Monthly Base Rent, whichever shall first occur. Rent shall be paid without notice or demand and without any setoff or deduction whatsoever, at the times set forth in this Lease in lawful money of the United States and immediately available funds. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord all Rent at the address specified in Clause 1.H or at any other place designated in writing by Landlord. Rent for any partial month or partial year, as applicable, shall be prorated based on the number of days in such calendar month or such calendar year, as applicable. Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall be independent of every other covenant or obligation under the Lease. If Tenant fails to pay any Rent to Landlord when due, Landlord shall be entitled to (a) Interest on the unpaid Rent from the date due until paid and (b) a late charge of five percent (5%) per instance. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. If Landlord receives two (2) or more checks from Tenant which are returned by Tenant’s bank for insufficient funds, Tenant agrees that all future checks shall be either bank certified or cashiers’ checks. Tenant shall pay a service charge for each returned check equal to the greater of (i) $250.00 and (ii) the amount of all bank service charges resulting from such returned check.
In addition to the Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any sales, use, excise or other tax now or hereafter imposed upon Rent due to Landlord under this Lease.
Except if expressly made the obligation of Landlord under this Lease, it is the intention of the parties that this Lease shall be triple net to Landlord and that Tenant shall pay on its own account, to the complete exoneration of Landlord all costs and expenses affecting the Premises and the business carried on therein, as well as all other charges, expenses and amounts as are set forth in the Lease.
9.OPERATING EXPENSES AND REAL ESTATE TAXES:
9.1GENERAL:
In addition to Monthly Base Rent, beginning on the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share of the Operating Expenses (defined below);
(a)As used in this Lease, the term “Operating Expenses” means, without limiting the generality of the following:
(i)Taxes. Taxes shall include, without limitation, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges (herein collectively referred to as “Tax” or “Taxes”) accrued against the Project during the Lease Term or the rents collected by Landlord therefrom (other than inheritance, personal income or estate taxes). If the Project or Landlord is assessed with a Tax which Landlord, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, deems excessive, Landlord may challenge said Tax and/or may defer compliance therewith to the extent legally permitted; and, in the event thereof, Tenant shall be liable for Tenant’s Share of all reasonable costs in connection with such challenge. If the Project or Tenant is assessed with a Tax which Tenant, in Tenant’s commercially reasonable discretion, deems excessive, Tenant may challenge said Tax and/or may defer compliance therewith to the extent legally permitted; and, in the event thereof, Tenant shall be liable for all reasonable costs in connection with such challenge. If any Tax is levied or assessed directly against Tenant, then Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay the same at such times and in such manner as the taxing authority shall require. If any tax, excise or other imposition is levied or assessed by any taxing authority on account of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, the Rent, Tenant’s inventory, Tenant property, or Tenant’s investment or business operation in the Premises, then Tenant shall be responsible therefor and shall pay the same before delinquency. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the usage, improvements and/or installations of equipment and fixture of Tenant increase the assessment/value ascribed to the Project, and this appreciation results in an increase in real estate taxes (the “Property Tax Increase”), the Tenant shall be required to directly pay for such Property Tax Increase. In such case, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of the real estate tax xxxx for the period prior to Tenant’s possession, and a copy of the new increased tax xxxx, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Property Tax Increase within thirty (30) days after receipt of such xxxx.

On or before the first day of each month during the ensuing calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord in advance one-twelfth (1/12) of such estimated amount; however, if such notice is not given, Tenant shall continue to pay on the basis of the prior year’s estimate until the month after such notice is given. In the month Tenant first pays Landlord’s new estimate, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference between the new estimate and the amount payable under the prior year’s estimate for each month, which has elapsed since the end of the prior year. If at any time or times it reasonably appears to Landlord that the amount payable under Clause 9.1 for the current calendar year will vary from Landlord’s estimate, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant including a statement providing reasonable explanation of change, revise Landlord’s estimate for such year, and subsequent payments by Tenant for such year shall be based upon Landlord’s revised estimate.
9.3ANNUAL SETTLEMENT: For each calendar year, Landlord will deliver to Tenant a detail statement of amounts payable under Clause 9.1. Such statement shall be final and binding upon Tenant unless Tenant objects to it in writing to Landlord within ninety (90) days after it is delivered to Tenant. If such statement shows Tenant’s total payments of Operating Expenses for any year are less than Tenant’s Share of actual Operating Expenses for such year, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such statement; and if more, then Landlord shall either, at Landlord’s option, retain such excess and credit it against Tenant’s next Rent payments or pay such refund to Tenant (or, if such adjustment is at the end of the Term, pay Tenant, after deducting any amounts then due and owing to Landlord). During the ninety (90) day window after delivery of such statement, Tenant may, after reasonable notice to Landlord and during normal business hours, inspect, at Landlord’s offices, Landlord’s books and records that relate to Common Area Maintenance Costs, taxes and insurance for the period represented by such statement; provided, however, that Tenant shall maintain all information contained in Landlord’s books and records in strict confidence; provided, however, that to the extent necessary, Tenant shall be entitled to show such information to Tenant’s accountants and attorneys. If, after such inspection, Tenant disputes the amount of Common Area Maintenance Costs set forth in the statement, a certification as to the proper amount shall be made (at Tenant’s expense, except as provided below) by an
10
independent certified public accountant selected by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. Such certification shall be completed not later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the statement of amounts was first delivered to Tenant. If such certification discloses that Landlord, in such statement, has overstated the amount of Tenant’s share of additional Rent by more than 5%, then the reasonable cost of such certification shall be paid by Landlord (excluding travel and lodging costs). At the expiration of such 90- day period (or the 180 day period in the event of certification), Tenant shall not be entitled to question the accuracy of any such statement.
10.RULES AND REGULATIONS: Tenant shall comply with and shall cause all Tenant Parties to comply with, at all times during the Term, all rules and regulations at any time or from time to time established by Landlord covering use of the Premises and the Project. The current Project rules and regulations are attached hereto as Exhibit D. In the event of any direct conflict between said rules and regulations and the provisions of this Lease, the terms and provisions of this Lease shall control. Landlord shall not have any liability or obligation for the breach of any rules or regulations by other tenants in the Project.
11.SIGNS: Except as provided in Exhibit F, Tenant shall not make any changes to the exterior of the Premises or the Building, install any exterior lights, decorations, balloons, flags, pennants, banners, or painting, or erect or install any signs, windows or door lettering, placards, decorations, or advertising media of any type which can be viewed from the exterior of the Premises, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Except as provided in Exhibit F, Tenant shall place no signs or advertising matter on the exterior of the Building or at any other location on the Project other than within the Premises and only visible therein, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant must abide by the Sign Criteria set forth in Exhibit F for the installation of any signs approved by Landlord. Upon surrender or vacation of the Premises, Tenant shall have removed all signs and repair, paint, and/or replace the building facia surface to which its signs are attached. Tenant shall obtain all applicable governmental permits and approvals for sign and exterior treatments. All signs, awnings, canopies, decorations, lettering, advertising matter or other items used by Tenant shall be insured and maintained at all times by Tenant in good condition, operating order and repair.
12.UTILITIES: Tenant shall pay all utility deposits and fees and all monthly service charges for water, electricity, heat, light, sprinkler, telephone, sewage, oil, gas, refuse and trash collection and any other utility or service furnished to the Premises and the improvements on the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining to Tenant’s use of the Premises, however supplied, when the same become due. Tenant’s responsibility for said utilities shall commence upon the Possession Date. If any such services are not separately metered or billed to Tenant but rather are billed to and paid by Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s portion of the cost of such services, as additional Rent, in accordance with the proportion that the Premises bear to the total area serviced by said meter, or alternatively it shall be apportioned based on Tenant’s use reasonably estimated by Landlord. Failure by Tenant to pay utility charges promptly as provided in this Lease shall result in Landlord having the right to suspend the service. None of the Landlord Parties shall be liable to Tenant in damages or otherwise for the quality, quantity, failure, unavailability, discontinuance, diminishment or disruption of any utility or service (including any discontinuance pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) and the same shall not (i) constitute a termination of this Lease; (ii) constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant; or (iii) entitle Tenant to an abatement of Rent or other charges (except as specifically set forth herein); provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to release Landlord from its common area maintenance and repair obligations under this Lease.
13.ALTERATIONS: Any alterations, additions, or improvements made by or on behalf of Tenant to the Premises (“Tenant-Made Alterations”) shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall have a reasonable obligation to approve minor alterations (interior, non- structural alterations that are less than $50,000 in cost) in or to the Premises requested by Tenant. Tenant shall cause, at its expense, all Tenant-Made Alterations to comply with Landlord’s insurance requirements and with Laws and shall construct at its expense any alteration or modification required by Laws as a result of any Tenant-Made Alterations. All Tenant-Made Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner by contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord and only good grades of materials shall be used. Such contractors shall be required, at a minimum, to carry and maintain insurance in accordance with the standards and requirements set forth in Exhibit I attached hereto, and Tenant shall provide certificates of insurance evidencing compliance with such insurance requirements. Landlord has been apprised of and approves the following Tenant-Made Alteration concepts: installation of crane footings, additional toilets, paint booths, temperature-controlled rooms, charging stations and security cameras, however the plans and specifications for the same have not been provided to Landlord, and must still be reviewed and approved by Landlord before Landlord’s prior written consent shall be deemed provided, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. (it being acknowledged that Landlord’s rejection for changes that affect the building’s structural components shall never be deemed unreasonable). Whenever plans and
11
specifications are required to be submitted to Landlord for approval, these plans and specifications must be (i) hand delivered to Landlord in plan sets with minimum sizing of 20” x 36” and, (ii) delivered digitally as well. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the plans and specifications to review the same and notify Tenant whether Landlord has approved or rejected the plans and specifications, provided (A) if Landlord rejects any such plans and specifications, Landlord shall provide Tenant with specific comments as to the elements of the plan or specifications that Landlord found objectionable, and (B) if Landlord does not provide any written notice within the fifteen (15) day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the plans and specifications. Landlord may monitor construction of the Tenant-Made Alterations. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs in reviewing plans and specifications and in monitoring construction. Landlord’s right to review plans and specifications and to monitor construction shall be solely for its own benefit, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord’s approval of any plans and specifications submitted by Tenant pursuant to this Clause 13 or otherwise is not intended and shall not be deemed to constitute a representation, warranty or assurance of any kind that such plans and specifications and the Tenant-Made Alterations shown thereon comply with applicable Laws or that the same are structurally sound and Tenant shall be solely responsible for causing such compliance and for the quality and structural integrity of any Tenant-Made Alterations and Tenant acknowledges that it is not relying on any of the Landlord Parties for the same. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the identities and mailing addresses of all persons performing work or supplying materials, prior to beginning such work, and Landlord may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to applicable Law. Tenant shall furnish security or make other arrangements satisfactory to Landlord to assure payment for the completion of all work free and clear of liens and shall provide certificates of insurance with types of coverage and amounts reasonably required by Landlord, including a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Landlord Parties, from an insurance company satisfactory to Landlord, including a provision of additional insured status for the Landlord Parties, protecting Landlord against liability for all Claims including, but not limited to, personal injury or property damage during construction. Upon completion of any Tenant-Made Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord sworn statements setting forth the names of all contractors and subcontractors who did work on the Tenant-Made Alterations and final lien waivers from all such contractors and subcontractors in compliance with Nevada law. Upon surrender of the Premises, all Tenant-Made Alterations and any leasehold improvements constructed by Landlord shall remain on the Premises as Landlord’s property without compensation to Tenant, except to the extent Landlord requires removal at Tenant’s expense of any such items or Landlord and Tenant have otherwise agreed in writing in connection with Landlord’s consent to any Tenant-Made Alterations. Tenant shall repair any damage caused by the removal of such Tenant-Made Alterations upon surrender of the Premises, provided that if Tenant’s removal and restoration work would damage or otherwise affect the structure of the Premises or the Building, Landlord may, at its option, elect to perform such removal restoration work, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor upon demand.
14.MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS:
14.1LANDLORD OBLIGATIONS. Landlord shall repair, at its expense and without pass through as an Operating Expense, the structural soundness of the roof (which does not include the roof membrane and roof decking, the costs of which will be included in Operating Expenses), the structural soundness of the foundation, and the structural soundness of the exterior walls of the Building (the term "exterior walls" as used in this section shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors or overhead doors, special store fronts, dock bumpers, dock plates or levelers, or office entries) in good repair, reasonable wear and tear excluded. Tenant shall promptly give Landlord written notice of any repair required by Landlord pursuant to this Clause 14.1, after which Landlord shall have a reasonable opportunity to repair. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the need for any repair referenced herein results from the negligence or intentional misconduct of any Tenant Party, following Landlord’s completion of such repairs, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs of such repairs upon demand therefor.
14.2TENANT OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly assumed by Landlord in this Lease, Tenant assumes all obligations to repair, maintain and replace the Premises. Subject to Landlord’s obligation in Clause 14.1 and subject to Clause 16 [Destruction of Premises], Tenant, at its expense, shall repair, replace and maintain in good condition and repair all portions of the Premises and all areas, improvements and systems exclusively serving the Premises including, without limitation, dock and loading areas, truck doors, plumbing, water and sewer lines up to points of common connection, entries, doors, locks and closing devices, ceilings, window sashes, casements, frames and glass, interior walls, and the interior side of demising walls, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, pest control, lighting, floors (excluding structural foundation), and all other equipment of every kind and nature attached to or exclusively serving the Premises. Such repair and replacements include capital expenditures and repairs whose benefit may extend beyond the Term. If Tenant fails to keep the Premises in good condition and repair, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any necessary repairs or replacements. If Landlord makes such repairs or replacements, Landlord may xxxx Tenant for the cost of the repairs plus a 10% administrative fee as additional Rent, and said additional Rent shall be payable by Tenant within ten (10) days after demand by Landlord.
12
14.3HVAC. Tenant shall enter annual, written maintenance contracts with competent, licensed contractors reasonably approved or designated by Landlord. Such contracts shall include, and Tenant shall require that such contractors provide: (i) inspection, cleaning and testing at least monthly for HVAC units and semi-annually for other systems and equipment (or more frequently if required by applicable Law or if reasonably required by Landlord), (ii) any servicing, maintenance, repairs and replacements of filters, belts or other items determined to be necessary or appropriate as a result of such inspections and tests, or by the manufacturers’ warranty, service manual or technical bulletins, or otherwise required to ensure proper and efficient operation, including emergency work, (iii) all other work as shall be reasonably required by Tenant, Landlord or Landlord’s insurance carriers, (iv) a detailed record of all services performed, and (v) an annual service report at the end of each calendar year. In accordance with standard manufacture recommendations, the preventative maintenance procedures for HVAC and related equipment (if applicable) shall include, but not be limited to, the services listed on Exhibit G attached hereto and made a part hereof. Not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Lease Commencement Date and annually thereafter, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of all maintenance contracts required hereunder, and written evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that the annual fees therefor have been paid. Alternatively, Landlord may at its option secure its own annual service contract to perform periodic inspections of the HVAC systems serving the Premises, and to perform any necessary work, maintenance, or repair of them. In that event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all amounts paid by Landlord in connection with such contract.
15.RIGHT OF ENTRY: Landlord, its agents, employees and contractors shall have the right, at all reasonable times during the Term and following reasonable notice, to enter and inspect the Premises, to perform any obligation required of, or right permitted to, Landlord under this Lease, to post notices of non-responsibility or other notices which Landlord may deem necessary for its protection, and for any purpose permitted by Law, with reasonable notice except in cases of an emergency, in which event no prior notice shall be required. Landlord has the right to show the Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders, tenants and/or brokers and post “for lease” signs within or outside the Premises during the last six (6) months of the Term.
16.DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES: If at any time during the Term the Premises are damaged by a fire or other casualty (“Casualty”), Landlord shall notify Tenant within sixty (60) days after such damage as to the amount of time Landlord reasonably estimates it will take to restore the Premises (“Completion Estimate”).
16.1TERMINATION. If the Completion Estimate states that Landlord’s initial estimate of the time needed for to repair the Premises exceeds one hundred eighty (180) days, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of the Casualty by notice to the other party. Notice of Landlord’s or Tenant’s election to terminate the Lease pursuant to this Clause 16.1 must be given within thirty (30) days after the date of the Completion Estimate. Either party may terminate this Lease if the Casualty occurs within the last six (6) months of the Term if Landlord’s estimate of the time needed to repair the damage caused by the Casualty exceeds more than 20% of the then remaining Term. Tenant's termination right described in this Clause 16.1 shall not apply if the damage was caused by the negligent or intentional acts of any Tenant Parties. Failure of Tenant to exercise said election within said thirty (30) day period shall constitute Tenant's agreement to accept delivery of the Premises under this Lease whenever tendered by Landlord, provided Landlord thereafter pursues reconstruction or restoration diligently to completion, subject to delays caused by Force Majeure events.
16.2RESTORATION. If neither party elects to terminate this Lease or if Landlord estimates that restoration will take 180 days or less, then, subject to Landlord’s ability to obtain the necessary permits therefor and receipt of sufficient insurance proceeds, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Casualty, excluding the improvements installed by Landlord and paid by Tenant or Tenant-Made Alterations, subject to delays arising from the collection of insurance proceeds or from Force Majeure events. Tenant at Tenant’s expense shall promptly perform, subject to delays arising from the collection of insurance proceeds, or from Force Majeure events, all repairs or restoration not required to be done by Landlord to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Casualty and shall promptly re-enter the Premises and commence doing business in accordance with this Lease, provided that prior to commencement of repairs, Landlord shall provide Tenant with any insurance proceeds attributable to the Premises remaining, after the completion of Landlord’s repairs, that have been received by Landlord for any such improvements to be repaired by Tenant under this section.
16.3ABATEMENT. In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any
13
portion thereof, for ten (10) consecutive business days (the “Eligibility Period”) as a result of damage to the Premises, and the damage was not caused by the negligence or intentional acts of any Tenant Parties, then Tenant's Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for the sooner of such time that (i) Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, or (ii) Landlord has substantially completed the restoration required in Clause 16.2, in the proportion that the leasable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total leasable area of the Premises. If Landlord makes other space available to Tenant, rent for the substitute premises shall be payable on an equitable basis as reasonably determined by Landlord.
16.4TENANT’S ACTS. If such damage or destruction occurs as a result of the negligence or the intentional acts of any Tenant Parties, and the proceeds of insurance which are actually received by Landlord are not sufficient to pay for the repair of all of the damage, Tenant shall pay, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to Landlord upon demand, the difference between the cost of repairing the damage and the insurance proceeds received by Landlord.
16.5TENANT’S PROPERTY. Landlord shall not be liable to any Tenant Parties or customers for loss or damage to merchandise, tenant improvements, fixtures, automobiles, furniture, equipment, computers, files or other property (hereinafter collectively "Tenant's property") located at the Project. Tenant shall repair or replace all of Tenant's property at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant acknowledges that it is Tenant's sole responsibility to obtain adequate insurance coverage to compensate Tenant for damage to Tenant's property.
16.6WAIVER. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any Law relating to the matters addressed in this Clause 16 and agree that their respective rights for damage to or destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in this Lease.
17.CONDEMNATION: If all or part of the Project is taken or condemned by any authority for any public use or purpose (including a deed given in lieu of condemnation), which renders the Building or the Premises not suitable for its intended purpose in Landlord or Tenant’s reasonable opinion, this Lease shall terminate as of the date title vests in such authority, and the Rent shall be apportioned as of such date. Otherwise, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, except the Rent shall xxxxx for that part of the Premises which is rendered untenantable and not occupied by Tenant on a per diem and proportionate area basis from the date when that part of the Premises is no longer available for the use of the Tenant. Landlord, upon receipt and to the extent of the award in condemnation or proceeds of sale which is allocable to the Premises, shall make necessary repairs and restoration (exclusive of Tenant-Made Alterations and personal property installed by Tenant) to restore the Premises remaining to as near their former condition as circumstances will permit and to the extent necessary to constitute the portion not so taken or condemned as complete. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award from any sale, taking or condemnation without any payment to Tenant. Tenant shall have the right separately to pursue against the condemning authority, an award in respect of Tenant’s business damages and relocation expenses. Under no circumstances shall Tenant seek or be entitled to any compensation for the value of its leasehold estate which Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any Law relating to the matters addressed in this Clause 17 and agree that their respective rights for damage to or destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in this Lease.
14
18.TRANSFERS:
18.1PROHIBITION. Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, assign this Lease or sublet the Premises, or transfer or permit the transfer of this Lease or the interest of Tenant in the Lease, in whole or in part, or mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate its leasehold interest or grant any concession or license within the Premises, or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant (any such subletting, assignment or other transfer shall be referred to as a “Transfer,” and the person to whom Tenant’s interest is transferred shall be referred to as a “Transferee”). If Tenant is a privately-held corporation, or is an unincorporated association, limited liability company or partnership, the cumulative or aggregate transfer, assignment or hypothecation of thirty-three percent (33%) or more of the total stock, or the legal or beneficial interest, in such corporation, association, company or partnership, whether in a single transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions, and whether on a direct or indirect basis, shall be deemed a Transfer. Any attempt by Tenant to effect a Transfer without such consent of Landlord shall be voidable by Landlord and, at Landlord’s election, shall constitute an incurable default under this Lease.
18.2PROCEDURE. If Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, Tenant shall deliver written notice of such intent to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed effective date of the Transfer (“Transfer Request”). Each Transfer Request must contain, or be accompanied with, each of the following: (i) a copy of the proposed Transfer documents; (ii) a detailed description of the proposed Transferee’s business to be conducted upon the Premises and certification that it is a Permitted Use; (iii) the business resume of the principals of the Transferee; (iv) the latest audited and the latest unaudited quarterly financial statements of the proposed Transferee; (v) the economic terms and consideration for the transaction; and (vi) any other documentation and information reasonably required by Landlord. Within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Transfer Request and all of the information required pursuant to this Clause 18.2, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing that Landlord has elected to (1) consent to such proposed Transfer (subject to the provisions hereof), or (2) withhold consent to such proposed Transfer.
18.3STANDARDS FOR APPROVAL/DISAPPROVAL. In determining whether to grant or withhold its consent to a proposed Transfer, Landlord may consider any reasonable factor. Without limiting the conditions that may be construed as a reasonable factor, it is deemed reasonable that Landlord’s consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld if: (a) The proposed Transferee does not have sufficient financial worth to fully and timely discharge all of the then remaining obligations of Tenant under this Lease, (b) in Landlord’s commercially reasonable discretion, the proposed Transferee is not of sound business reputation, (c) the use of the Premises by the proposed Transferee will not be a Permitted Use, (d) the proposed Transferee does not have sufficient experience to successfully undertake its business at the Premises, (e) the proposed Transferee occupies premises in the Project, (f) the proposed Transferee has delivered a letter of intent to Landlord or Landlord’s agent to lease space in the Project and (g) the proposed Transferee is actively negotiating with Landlord or Landlord’s agent to lease space in the Project, (h) the Transferee intends to use the Premises for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease or would result in a violation of another tenant’s rights or of an agreement by which Landlord is bound, (i) any portion of the Project or Premises would likely become subject to additional or different Laws as a consequence of the proposed Transfer, (j) Landlord is not able to obtain the consent of any third parties having approval rights, or (k) Landlord has had prior unsatisfactory dealings with the proposed Transferee. Furthermore, if Tenant is then in default of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to elect, in its sole discretion, to deny its consent to such proposed Transfer so long as such default exists.
18.4REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION. Each and every assignment instrument and subletting instrument shall contain such terms and conditions as are described in the Transfer Request and be expressly subject and subordinate to each and every provision contained in this Lease. Each Transferee shall expressly assume in writing for the benefit of Landlord the obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall be liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of the Rent and the performance of all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be performed for the Term. If Landlord approves the proposed Transfer, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant, for execution by Tenant and the proposed Transferee, counterparts of Landlord’s reasonable and customary consent instrument, and Tenant shall have thirty (30) days to cause the same to be executed, without modification, by both Tenant and the proposed Transferee and delivered to Landlord, together with all required attachments thereto.
18.5TRANSFER FEES. If said Transfer requires the consent of Landlord pursuant to this Clause 18, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand as Rent an amount equal to the greater of (a) Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and administrative expenses incurred in connection with any Transfer and (b) Three Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($3,000.00).
15
18.6MISCELLANEOUS. The consent by Landlord to a Transfer shall not relieve Tenant from obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent in writing to any further Transfer. Any approved Transfer shall be expressly subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. In the event of any approved Transfer, Tenant and Guarantor shall not be released or discharged from any liability, whether past, present or future, under this Lease, including any Renewal Term of this Lease. If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent in connection with a proposed Transfer and Landlord fails or refuses to give such consent, Tenant shall not be entitled to any damages for any withholding by Landlord of its consent, it being intended that Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action for specific performance or injunction, and that such remedy shall be available only in those cases where this Lease provides that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent. If this Lease be assigned or if the Premises be subleased (whether in whole or in part) or in the event of the mortgage, pledge, or hypothecation of Tenant’s leasehold interest or grant of any concession or license within the Premises or if the Premises be occupied in whole or in part by anyone other than Tenant, then upon a default by Tenant hereunder Landlord may collect rent from the assignee, sublessee, mortgagee, pledgee, party to whom the leasehold interest was hypothecated, concessionee or licensee or other occupant and apply the amount collected to the next rent payable hereunder; and all such rentals collected by Tenant shall be held in trust for Landlord and immediately forwarded to Landlord. No such transaction or collection of rent or application thereof by Landlord, however, shall be deemed a waiver of these provisions or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of its covenants, duties, or obligations hereunder.
18.7PERMITTED TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease the entire Premises to an entity controlled by, controlling or under common control with Tenant (as used herein, “control” shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person or entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities or rights, by contract, or otherwise) provided that, in any of such events, in each instance, each and every one of the following requirements has been satisfied: (a) the successor of Tenant has the financial ability to satisfy Tenant’s obligations and responsibilities under the Lease, and proof reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of such net worth shall be delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed Transfer date; (b) any such Transfer shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, and such Transferee shall assume, in a written document reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and delivered to Landlord prior to the effective date of such Transfer, all the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; and (c) Tenant is not in default under this Lease.
19.SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT: This Lease and the rights of Tenant are expressly subject and subordinate to the lien and provisions of any Mortgage. This provision will be self-operative, and no further instrument of subordination will be required in order to effect it. However, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice by Landlord, execute and deliver such further instruments, in such form as may be required by Landlord or any Mortgagee of a proposed or existing Mortgage, subordinating this Lease to the lien of any such Mortgage. Within sixty (60) days after (i) the execution of this Lease, and (ii) any future date that Landlord enters into any new security device after the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Non-Disturbance Agreement from the holder of such Security Device which is secured by the Premises which provides that Tenant’s possession of the Premises, and this Lease, including any options to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so long as Lessee is not in Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of the Premises, but the failure to obtain same shall not constitute a default by Landlord.
In the event of the foreclosure of any such Mortgage by voluntary agreement or otherwise, or the commencement of any judicial action seeking such foreclosure, Tenant, at the request of the then Landlord, shall attorn to such Mortgagee or purchaser in foreclosure or the party who, but for this Lease, would be entitled to possession of the Premises. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice by Landlord or such Mortgagee, purchaser, or their successors, execute and deliver any instrument in such form as may be required by Landlord or such Mortgagee, purchaser, or their successors, to further evidence such attornment. This provision will be self-operative, and no further instrument of attornment will be required in order to effect it. Notwithstanding such subordination, Tenant's right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as Tenant shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms.
If Tenant fails to execute and deliver any requested Subordination and Non-Disturbance Agreement or any requested attornment agreement within the time periods required herein, Tenant shall have irrevocably appointed Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact to execute such instrument in Tenant’s name.
16
Tenant shall send to the Mortgagee (after notification of the identity of such Mortgagee and the mailing address thereof) copies of all notices that Tenant sends to Landlord; such notices to said Mortgagee shall be sent concurrently with the sending of the notices to Landlord and in the same manner as notices are required to be sent pursuant to Clause 33 [Notices] hereof. Tenant will accept performance of any provision of this Lease by such Mortgagee as performance by, and with the same force and effect as though performed by, Landlord. If any act or omission of Landlord would give Tenant the right, immediately or after lapse of a period of time, to cancel or terminate this Lease, or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise such right until (a) Tenant gives notice of such act or omission to Landlord and to each such Mortgagee, and (b) a reasonable period of time for remedying such act or omission elapses following the time when such Mortgagee becomes entitled under such Mortgage to remedy same (which reasonable period shall in no event be less than the period to which Landlord is entitled under this Lease or otherwise, after similar notice, to effect such remedy and which reasonable period shall take into account such time as shall be required to institute and complete any foreclosure proceedings).
20.ESTOPPEL: Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of written notice by Landlord and without cost to Landlord, deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease, as modified, is in full force and effect; providing a true, correct and complete copy of the Lease and any and all modifications of the Lease; the amount of each item of the Rent then payable under this Lease and the date to which the Rent has been paid; that Landlord is not in default under this Lease or, if in default, a detailed description of such default; that Tenant is or is not in possession of the Premises, as the case may be; and containing such other information and agreement as may be reasonably requested. In the event that Tenant does not execute and return the same to Landlord within such 10-day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have certified all information contained therein. The truth and accuracy of the certifications contained herein may be relied upon by (i) Landlord, (ii) any potential purchaser of the Project, or its assignee (“Purchaser”), (iii) each lender (“Lender”) of Landlord or Purchaser (or any of their respective direct or indirect owners), and its successors, participants, assigns and transferees, (iv) any rating agency or trustee involved in a securitization of one or more loans made by a Lender, and (v) any servicer of any such loan (collectively, the “Reliance Parties”), and said certifications shall be binding upon Tenant and its successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of the Reliance Parties.
21.QUIET ENJOYMENT: Landlord agrees with Tenant that so long as Tenant pays the Rent and observes and performs all the terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant may, subject to the terms of this Lease, peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises against any person claiming by, through or under Landlord.

Upon the occurrence of an event of Default by Tenant, Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided at law or in equity (all remedies provided herein being non-exclusive and cumulative), and Landlord may, with or without notice or demand, do any one or more of the following:
(a)Landlord may, at its election, by any lawful means, terminate this Lease or terminate Tenant’s right to possession only, without terminating the Lease.
(b)Upon any termination of this Lease or upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession without termination of the Lease and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have for possession of the Premises or arrearage in Rent, remove any and all persons and property from the Premises, with or without legal process, and pursuant to such rights and remedies as the laws of the State of Nevada shall then provide or permit, but Landlord shall not be obligated to effect such removal. Said property may, at Landlord’s option be stored or otherwise dealt with as such laws may then provide or permit, including, but not limited to, the right of Landlord to store the same, or any part thereof, in a warehouse or elsewhere at the expense and risk of and for the account of Tenant.
(c)Upon any termination of this Lease Landlord shall be entitled to recover as damages, all Rent, including any amounts treated as additional Rent under this Lease, and other sums due and payable by Tenant on the date of termination, plus as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of releasing, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, any real estate commissions actually paid by Landlord and the unamortized value of any free rent, reduced rent, tenant improvement allowance or other economic concessions provided by Landlord. The "worth at time of award" of the amounts referred to in Clause 25.2(c)(i) and (ii) shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of ten percent (10%) per annum or the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable law. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in Clause 25.2(c)(iii) shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).

20
(d)Upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession only without termination of the Lease:

2.Until such time as Landlord shall elect to terminate the Lease and shall thereupon be entitled to recover the amounts specified in such case in Subsection (c), Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent under this Lease and other sums reserved in this Lease for the remaining Term, together with the costs of repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and Landlord’s expenses of reletting and the collection of the rent accruing therefrom (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and brokers’ commissions), as the same shall then be due or become due from time to time, less only such consideration as Landlord may have received from any reletting of the Premises, and Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suits from time to time to recover any sums falling due under Clause 25 as they become due. Any proceeds of reletting by Landlord in excess of the amount then owed by Tenant to Landlord from time to time shall be credited against Tenant’s future obligations under this Lease but shall not otherwise be refunded to Tenant or inure to Tenant’s benefit.
3.If Tenant at any time fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease in a manner satisfactory to Landlord, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation, with two (2) calendar days prior notice after Tenant’s time to cure has expired (except in the case of any dangerous condition or emergency, in which case no notice shall be required) to perform or cause to be performed such obligations on behalf and at the expense of Tenant. In such event, Landlord’s costs and expenses incurred with respect thereto shall, upon demand, be paid for by Tenant as additional Rent. The performance by Landlord of any such obligation shall not constitute a release or waiver of any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
4.Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises or portions thereof. Landlord and Tenant agree that nevertheless Landlord shall at most be required to use only the same efforts Landlord then uses to lease premises in the Building generally and that in any case that Landlord shall not be required to give any preference or priority to the showing or leasing of the Premises of portions thereof over any other space that Landlord may be leasing or have available and may place a suitable prospective tenant in any such other space regardless of when such other space becomes available and that Landlord shall have the right to relet the Premises for a greater or lesser term than that remaining under this Lease, the right to relet only a portion of the Premises, or a portion of the Premises or the entire Premises as a part of a larger area, and the right to change the character or use of the Premises. In connection with or in preparation for any reletting, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises and redecorate the same to the extent Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof, together with Landlord’s expenses or reletting, including, without limitation, any commission incurred by Landlord, within five (5) days of Landlord’s demand. Landlord shall not be required to observe any instruction given by Tenant about any reletting or accept any tenant offered by Tenant unless such offered tenant has a credit-worthiness acceptable to Landlord and leases the entire Premises upon terms and conditions including a rate of rent (after giving effect to all expenditures by Landlord for tenant improvements, brokers’ commissions and other leasing costs) all no less favorable to Landlord than as called for in this Lease, nor shall Landlord be required to make or permit any assignment or sublease for more than the current term or which Landlord would not be required to permit under the provisions of Clause 18 [Transfers].
(e)Intentionally Deleted.
21
(f)TENANT, ITS SUCCESSORS, SUBTENANTS AND ASSIGNS EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO: (A) TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ON ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS LEASE OR TENANT’S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PREMISES; (B) SERVICE OF ANY NOTICE REQUIRED BY ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE LAW OR ORDINANCE APPLICABLE TO LANDLORDS OR TENANTS BUT NOT REQUIRED BY THE TERMS OF THE LEASE; (C) REDEMPTION AND ALL RIGHTS TO RELIEF FROM FORFEITURE GRANTED BY OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE LAW; AND (D) FILE ANY COUNTERCLAIMS OR CROSS-CLAIMS OTHER THAN COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIMS OR CROSS-CLAIMS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY LANDLORD AGAINST TENANT FOR ANY DEFAULT.
(g)Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies provided in this Lease or any other remedies provided by Law (all such remedies being cumulative), nor shall pursuit of any remedy provided in this Lease constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord under this Lease or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants contained in this Lease.
(h)No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall be deemed a termination of this Lease or an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender of said Premises shall be valid, unless in writing signed by Landlord.
(i)If (i) Tenant fails to make any payment under this Lease when due, (ii) Landlord performs or causes the performance of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, or (iii) Landlord incurs any costs or expenses as a result of Tenant’s default under this Lease, then Tenant shall pay, upon demand, the amount due under (i), or the amount of such costs and expenses incurred under (ii) or (iii) above, plus Interest from the date such payment was due or from the date Landlord incurs such costs or expenses, plus Landlord’s administrative costs in connection therewith.
26.LANDLORD’S DEFAULT: Landlord shall not be in default hereunder unless Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Tenant specifying such failure (unless such performance will, due to the nature of the obligation, require a period of time in excess of 30 days, then after such period of time as is reasonably necessary); failing which, Tenant shall have the right to seek judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction for actual damages and/or an injunction. In addition, In the event that neither Landlord nor Mortgagee cures said breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of said notice, or if having commenced said cure they do not diligently pursue it to completion, then Tenant may elect to cure said breach at Tenant’s expense. Landlord shall be obligated to reimburse Tenant, for all documented out-of-pocket costs of said cure incurred by Tenant with thirty (30) days following Tenant’s demand with the copies of all paid invoices. In the event Landlord does not reimburse Tenant within said thirty (30) days, Tenant shall have the right to offset all documented out-of- pocket costs of said cure incurred by Tenant against Rent, beginning with the first installment of Rent after the expiration of such 30-day period and continuing until Tenant has been reimbursed in full. In the event of a default by Landlord under the Lease, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and losses arising from any such default. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, none of the Landlord Parties shall be liable under any circumstances, in each case, however occurring, for injury or damage to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including but not limited to, any fines or penalties, loss of good will, loss of business, business opportunity or profits or other direct, special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages or for punitive or special damages of any kind, whether in contract, tort or otherwise.
27.SURRENDER OF PREMISES: Upon the Expiration Date, termination, or Default of the Lease in which Tenant’s right to possession is terminated, Tenant shall surrender and vacate the Premises immediately and deliver vacant possession to Landlord in a clean, good, and tenantable condition, except for reasonable use and ordinary wear and tear, and generally in the condition described on Exhibit H attached hereto. Movable trade fixtures and personal property shall be removed from the Premises if Tenant has fulfilled all Lease obligations, unless instructed otherwise by Landlord. All telephone, communication and data lines, cables, electrical equipment, HVAC or other upgrades owned, installed or caused to be installed by Tenant in the Premises or in the plenum of the Building shall not be removed by Tenant unless otherwise required by Landlord. Upon Tenant vacating the Premises, Tenant agrees at Landlord’s option to leave all wiring properly identified. All items authorized to be removed but subsequently not removed shall, at Landlord’s option but subject to Nevada law, be presumed to have been abandoned by Tenant, and title thereto shall pass to Landlord, or Landlord may, at its option, either store or dispose of these items at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant waives all Claims against Landlord for any damages resulting from Landlord’s retention and disposition of such property. If any Tenant-Made Alterations have been made by Tenant, with or without Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall, at its expense, and upon request of Landlord, restore the Premises to their original condition. Tenant shall repair any damage caused by the
22
removal of Tenant’s movable trade fixtures and personal property and such Tenant-Made Alterations upon surrender of the Premises; provided that if Tenant’s removal and restoration work would damage or otherwise affect the structure of the Premises or the Building, Landlord may, at its option, elect to perform such removal and restoration work, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor upon demand. Tenant shall also deliver all keys for the Premises as specified by Landlord, and inform Landlord of all combinations on locks, safes and any vaults in the Premises.
28.HOLDING OVER: If Tenant shall continue to occupy the Premises after the termination of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be a month-to-month tenancy at sufferance. The period of any hold over tenancy by Tenant shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease (other than any provisions for allowances, abatements or other financial concessions, Landlord’s Work, or optional rights of Tenant requiring Tenant to exercise the same by written notice, such as any options to extend the Term or to expand the Premises), except that Tenant shall pay Landlord from time to time, upon demand, as Base Rent for the holdover period, an amount equal to One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%) of the Rent in effect on the termination date, computed on a monthly basis for each month or part thereof during such holding over. In addition, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for and shall indemnify, defend (with counsel acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord against all loss, cost, liability and damages suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s holding over including, without limitation, (i) any payment or rent concession which Landlord may be contractually required to make to any tenant obtained by Landlord for all or any part of the Premises (a “New Tenant”) by reason of the late delivery of space to the New Tenant as a result of Tenant’s holding over or in order to induce such New Tenant not to terminate its lease by reason of the holding over by Tenant, and (ii) the loss of the benefit of the bargain if any New Tenant shall terminate its lease by reason of the holding over by Tenant. Acceptance by Landlord of any Rent after termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease or consent to such hold over occupancy, nor shall it waive Landlord’s right of re-entry or any other right contained in this Lease or provided by Law.
00.XXXXXXXX DEPOSIT: (a) As security for the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant upon its execution of this Lease shall pay to Landlord the Security Deposit in the amount stated in Clause 1.F. Landlord may use all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other sums as to which Tenant may be in default hereunder, or for any sum which Landlord may expend to cure any default of Tenant or by reason of Tenant’s default. Upon notice by Landlord of such application, Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit in full by promptly paying to Landlord the amount so applied within thirty (30) days after written demand therefore. The Security Deposit shall not be deemed an advance payment of Rent or a measure of damages for any Default by Tenant under this Lease, nor shall it be deemed a bar or defense to any action which Landlord may at any time commence against Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to segregate the Security Deposit from its other funds and may commingle the Security Deposit with its other funds. Landlord’s obligation respecting the Security Deposit is that of a debtor, not a trustee; no interest shall accrue thereon. Upon termination of the Lease and so long as all of Tenant’s obligations under terms and conditions of this Lease have been fulfilled, Landlord will return Tenant’s Security Deposit within thirty (30) days following the later of (a) the expiration or termination of the Lease Term; or (b) the date that Tenant vacates the Premises in the manner required by this Lease and performs all of the covenants required to be performed by Tenant hereunder. In the event this Lease is terminated by or upon the default of Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be retained by Landlord and applied to Landlord’s damages until all such damages are determined, and the balance, if any, shall thereupon be refunded to Tenant. Should the Project be sold or transferred, the Security Deposit will be assigned to the Purchaser or transferee upon which Landlord shall be released from all responsibilities as they relate to the Security Deposit.
30.LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: No entity or person holding Landlord’s interest under this Lease (whether or not such entity or person is named as “Landlord”) shall have any liability for any claims, damages, or causes of action arising or accruing after such entity or person ceases to hold such interest. No principal, officer, employee, or partner (general or limited) of Landlord shall have any personal liability under any provision of this Lease. If Landlord defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease or otherwise, Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Building and not to the other assets of Landlord or the assets, interest, or rights of any principal, officer, employee or partner (general or limited) for satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies.
00.XX RECORDING: Neither this Lease nor any memorandum nor notice shall be recorded in any official public records, without Landlord’s written consent.

32.SUPERIOR AGREEMENTS; TITLE: Tenant shall comply, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, with the requirements of all deed restrictions, restrictive covenants and other covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Building and/or the Project, as the same may be modified, amended and supplemented from time-to-time (collectively, “Superior Agreements”). Tenant shall not register nor record any document that will encumber Landlord’s title to the Project in any way at any time throughout the Term. Upon request of Landlord, Tenant shall promptly release, or cause to be released at Tenant’s expense, any such encumbrance.
33.NOTICES: Whenever any demand, request, approval, consent or notice (“notice”) shall or may be given to either of the parties by the other, each such notice shall be in writing and shall be served by hand delivery (with an acknowledging signature or receipt) or by overnight delivery, addressed to the other party at the address in Clause 1.I or such other addresses designated in writing by Landlord or Tenant, except that if Tenant has vacated the Premises (or if the Notice Address for Tenant is other than the Premises, and Tenant has vacated such address) without providing Landlord a new Notice Address, Landlord may serve notice in any manner described in this Clause or in any other manner permitted by Law. Any notice shall be effective when delivered. Refusal to accept any notice shall be considered receipt of notice. Any notices from Landlord shall be deemed duly given if given by Landlord’s attorney or property manager. Any notice sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If sent by regular mail the notice shall be deemed given forty-eight (48) hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight courier that guarantee next day delivery shall be deemed given twenty-four (24) hours after delivery of the same to the Postal Service or courier.
34.PARKING. Tenant shall be entitled to park in common with other tenants of the Project in those areas designated for unreserved parking. Tenant shall be responsible for all vehicles owned, rented or used by Tenant and/or Tenant Parties in or about the Project. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, in the event the Premises has access to a loading dock which exclusively services the Premises, then Tenant shall have the right to park its operable trucks overnight in front of such loading dock; provided, however, such operable trucks shall not block or restrict access to and from the Building and the parking lot. Tenant shall not park or store any motor vehicles within the Premises for any reason apart from a Permitted Use. In the event the Premises has access to a loading dock which does not exclusively service the Premises, Tenant shall not park its trucks in the dock area longer than the time it takes to reasonably load or unload its trucks. In no event shall Tenant park any vehicle in or about a loading dock which exclusively services another tenant in, on, or about the Project, or in a thoroughfare, driveway, street, or other area not specifically designated for parking. Landlord reserves the right to update the rules and regulations set forth on Exhibit D from time to time to include uniform rules and regulations for the loading and unloading of trucks upon the Project, which rules may include the right to designate specific parking spaces for tenants’ use. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall move its trucks and vehicles if, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, said vehicles are in violation of any of the above restrictions.
35.INTENTIONALLY DELETED
36.SUCCESSOR AND ASSIGNS: Subject to any provision hereof restricting assignment or subletting by Tenant, this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, and legal representatives of the Parties. In the event of the sale, assignment, or transfer by Landlord of its interest in the Project or in this Lease (other than a collateral assignment to secure a debt of Landlord prior to enforcement) to a successor in interest who expressly assumes the obligations of Landlord, Landlord shall be released and discharged from all of its covenants and obligations, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor of Landlord for performance of such covenants and obligations. Landlord’s assignment of the Lease or of any or all of its rights shall in no manner affect Tenant’s obligations. Landlord shall have the right to freely sell, assign or otherwise transfer its interest in the Project and/or this Lease.
00.XX OFFER: This Lease is submitted to Tenant on the understanding that it will not be considered an offer by Landlord and will not bind Landlord in any way until (a) Tenant has duly executed and delivered four (4) duplicate originals to Landlord and (b) Landlord has executed and delivered one of such originals to Tenant.

39.TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Lease.
00.XX WAIVER OR ACCORD AND SATISFACTION:
(a)No waiver by Landlord of any breach or Default of the Tenant under this Lease shall constitute a continuing waiver and Landlord may at any time insist on compliance by the Tenant.

The work required to construct and install the Tenant Improvements shall be performed in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth herein. All contractors performing any of the Tenant Improvements shall carry the insurance required in Exhibit I to the Lease.

(e)General Requirements. Tenant shall be solely responsible for compliance with all applicable statutes, codes, ordinances, and other regulations, and with Landlord’s insurance requirements in connection with all work performed by Tenant on the Tenant Improvements.

4.LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO INSPECT

Landlord’s authority to act under this Section does not give rise to a duty of Landlord to make inspections or otherwise enforce Tenant’s compliance with this Lease. Tenant’s failure to complete or cause to be completed Tenant’s Work in a good and workmanlike manner constitutes a default under this Lease.
5.RISK OF LOSS

Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents or contractors are responsible to Tenant for loss, theft, damage or destruction of Tenant's Work or property.

6.NOTICE OF NON-RESPONSIBILITY
Landlord and Tenant agree, and notice is hereby given, that Tenant is not the agent of Landlord for the construction, alterations or repair of any improvements on the Premises that are the obligation of Tenant under this Lease, the same being done at the sole direction and expense of Tenant. All contractors, materialmen, mechanics, and laborers employed with respect to the foregoing are hereby charged with notice that they must look solely to Tenant for the payment of any charge for work done or material finished on the Premises by or at the direction of Tenant. Tenant has no right, agency, power or authority to bind Landlord, or any interest of Landlord, for the payment of any claims for such labor or material, or for any additions, alterations or repairs on or to the Premises, and Tenant agrees to post notices on the Premises during all construction work of any nature performed by Tenant that Landlord is not responsible for any material and labor used or employed by Tenant on the Premises, and require that similar provisions be incorporated in its contracts for such work.

Landlord agrees to correct any deficiencies within a reasonable time, following which Landlord is under no further obligation to alter, change, decorate or improve the Premises, whether to adapt them for the use for which they are leased or for any other purpose. The existence of any such deficiencies does not affect Substantial Completion or Tenant's obligation to accept possession of the Premises as otherwise required under the Lease. The failure of Tenant to participate in said “walk-through” or preparation of a punchlist within said 5-day period constitutes a waiver by Tenant of all rights with respect to any deficiencies or incomplete work. The punchlist will not include any damage to the Premises caused by Tenant or its contractors, the repair of which is the sole responsibility of Tenant.
(b)Tenant acknowledges that except as expressly provided in this Lease, neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises, or with respect to the suitability or fitness of either for the conduct of Tenant's business or for any other purpose. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant conclusively establishes that Tenant accepts the Premises in their then "as is, where is" condition, that the Premises are at such time in satisfactory condition and in conformity with the provisions of this Lease in all respects, and that Landlord has installed all improvements for which Landlord is responsible under this Exhibit C and that there are no items needing additional work or repair, except as to any listed deficiencies set forth in the punchlist described in subparagraph 8(a).
